Chapter 20 The Riddler

The 800th floor of Hongbao, a thousand-story city.

There are four temples of the Nine Gods in Rainbow Castle - they are affiliated to the Church of the Silver Lady, the Church of the Deathrattle Girl, the Church of the God of Machinery, and the Church of the Eternal Light.

Under the leadership of Mera, Chabron quickly arrived at his destination—Hongbao Temple of Eternal Light, Pangloss Company Site No. 13 (the second floor of the temple), and the "Star Dome National Library Hongbao Branch"

(First floor of the temple).

Of course, he arrived at 1 place instead of 3 places.

Thinking of a staff team and one office location that can hold three jobs at the same time is really a genius. Chabron thought.

The black-haired girl Mera returned to the temple, took off the large black windbreaker that almost reached the ground, put it into a dimensional bag, and then put on the jet black velvet robe again (which was also incompatible with her petite body).

Chabron, on the other hand, also put aside his salutes and greeted several new colleagues who came to greet him.

----------

"Hello, you are the paladin Alves, right? Mera mentioned you to me. Oh, no need to be so reserved and serious. You are indeed very good-looking."

"Wow, you're the one (failed attribute check to recall name)... Uh, Miss Artificer. Hello."

"Xiao Longlong, hello? Can I touch your tail? Can't you? If not, forget it, I'm leaving. Don't come over here. Didn't you say you can't touch it?"

·······

After quickly greeting his future colleagues, Chabron said goodbye to everyone and hurried out of the temple gate.

It’s time to withdraw the money that I—should I count myself—have saved.

This, should, probably, probably, maybe, probably, is not considered stealing. Chabron thought.

Thank you to the eternal linker for your gift!

-------------

In the harmonious sunshine of the afternoon, Mera watched as the young priest Chabron left, and looked at the back of the beautiful young man with golden hair as golden as molten gold, gradually retreating away.

Mera, the priest of knowledge, felt strange.

The information she knows shows——

Chamberlain has never set foot on the streets of the Arcane City!

However, when they were actually walking together, Chabron knew the roads and buildings very well and could come and go with ease. He tried to hide this familiarity, but his instinctive reaction could not be completely concealed.

He knew that after entering the coverage area of ​​Hongbao Grand [Mystery Lock], he had to take out his backpack and undergo inspection. He did not step on any side roads on the way to the elevator. However, in the past twenty years, new buildings and rearrangements had been added.

The area is not well understood.

A priest who has never been to Rainbow Castle seems to have "stepped back on" the streets that even the Star King is familiar with.

Watching the blond boy disappear at the corner of the street, the girl Mera thought of a legend that was circulated among the believers of the Eternal Light and had been confirmed——

The eternal light sometimes imbues favored mortals with additional knowledge...

-------------

Twenty years ago in the world of Rioli, Xia Bron, a sickly young gamer, controlled the elf druid Antinoah Whisper of the Moon and traveled around the Western Continent and the Southern Continent. During his travels in the Western Continent, the main base was

It was the newly established Arcane City, Thousand Layers City, and Rainbow Castle at that time.

During this period, Antinoa completed many tasks for the president of the Alfa Federation, Miss Marina Xinglu. What is unpleasant is that the NPC who issued the tasks is a Riddler who likes to pretend to be profound.

. She is obsessed with destroying the certainty of language, structuring text, changing word order, tampering with meaning, and changing the original precise pronunciation beyond recognition. All variables in the task are attributed to her own prophet's predictions.

Usually after a series of tasks are completed, the task NPC/prophet/chief lady Marina Xinglu will let the player choose what reward they want. Generally speaking, they are:

1. Money

2. A secret (or more) and a prophecy

The elf druid Antinoa can have a large deposit thanks to Shabron choosing option 1 many times.

Normally at this time, the NPC Marina Stardew would pretend to sigh deeply, shake her head, and sigh in a tone that Chaberon could not imitate, but that could make real players more aggressive.

"Even if a golden mountain is placed in front of a fool, the fool will only bend down and pick up the gravel at the foot of the mountain."

Why don't you give me the gold mountain?

Chabron suspected that the mage Marina Stardew must be very proficient in some kind of "forced duel" or "taunt" type "skills" with extremely difficult will saves. Antinoah, who is a druid (high perception attribute and good at will)

It is difficult to pass the exemption). He is definitely a good person who chose the wrong profession.

The only pity is that the chief lady always has a miniature [Mysterious Lock] barrier on her body, which is similar to a miniature version of the "Great Mysterious Lock of Rainbow Castle". Even if she is punched in the face, she will not feel pain.

In the end, Chabron chose 1 as often as 50-50 times as he chose 2.

As an elf druid, Antinoa didn't need to use so much money for a while, so he took the time to go to Hongbao Bank and opened a bearer account in disguise.

For this kind of account, you only need to remember the account number and give the corresponding password, and you can withdraw the balance from all branches of Hongbao Bank.

If the account holder thinks that this method is still not safe enough, he can also add a signature and fingerprint comparison.

However, because the elf separatist force [Elf Revival Society] is very rampant, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble caused by his elf identity, Antinoah Moon Whisper did not set it up like this and only left a set of cipher text.

This gave Chabron an "opportunity to take advantage of."

In the world of Rioli, 20 years have passed, but whether it is the account number or the secret text, Chabron still keeps it in mind.

---------------

The 682nd floor of Thousand Layers City Hongbao.

In front of the counter of Hongbao Bank, there was a thin boy wearing a black robe, but his smile was as warm as spring. He had black hair shawl, and his eyes were as clear and blue as the water of a swan lake, and he was innocent.

In order to prevent being targeted by criminals who were interested in making money, Chabron used a [disguise hat] to modify his appearance in advance. When adjusting his appearance, he intentionally or unintentionally imitated the necromancer he played in the game, Ai.

Anyway, if you bump into someone from centuries ago, almost no one will recognize it, right?

"I would like to withdraw some money from a bearer account. The account is..."

With the appearance of a shadow of the past, Chabron said.

Then, he wrote the password required for withdrawing money on the paper.

What Chabron didn't know was that the moment he wrote down the account password completely, word for word,

The [Mysterious Lock] barrier covering the entire arcane city of Rainbow Castle sensed that the correct password was written down.

Just like the gods feel the prayers of mortals reciting their names, the preset scenes in the memory bank of this super giant magic tower's "mysterious consciousness" (tower spirit) are perfectly triggered.

"Send a [SMS] message to the person who wrote this cipher text."

This is the instruction written into the bottom memory bank of "Taling" Norma.
