In fact, not long after they set off, he had already noticed a player following them secretly behind him. He wanted to lead the player deep into the woods to deal with it, but the sudden change in Muliuxi's expression made him realize that maybe things were not that good.
Simple.
So the two of them started acting in a tacit understanding. To be precise, it was Mu Liuxi who led him to act, because he didn't know what the specific situation was.
Another player among the attackers, the thief, had already touched behind him. He didn't notice anything strange at all. If it hadn't been for Muliuxi's preemptive strike, once he was controlled by the other party, a thief and a ranger would be short.
An explosion within that time would most likely kill him directly.
This experience also made him realize his shortcomings again. One was that his high perception attribute did not play its due role at all, and the second was his weakness in the face of control.
The latter can be compensated by looking for some equipment and props, but the former can only be learned and mastered by oneself.
"How come there is no sound? Birds fly over the branches, the wind blows through the leaves, and we step on the grass. Don't you hear these sounds?" Muliuxi closed her eyes, opened her arms, and walked forward.
said.
I'm going to ask him, he's obviously a money man and a violent maniac, why don't he change his character into a literary youth instantly? Of course, Sherlock didn't dare to mock out loud, and asked with an open mind, "I can hear a little bit."
The fact is that Sherlock didn't hear anything just now. Most people are used to observing the surrounding environment with their eyes. They really don't pay attention to sounds deliberately. Moreover, even after receiving Muliuxi's prompt, he still listened intently.
No movement was heard, including footsteps.
"That's alright. As soon as the thief approaches, the surrounding sounds change. It's easy to spot him."
"Yeah, it's quite easy." It's easy for you, my sister. Why couldn't he hear anything with his 15 perception? Sherlock really wanted to wake her up from her literary state.
"Of course, you may not be able to do it." Muliuxi stopped, turned around and said with a smile.
This was supposed to be a sarcastic remark, and it should have been meant to match the other person's smile, but Sherlock discovered a hint of sadness in the cheerful tone, and the helplessness outlined in the raised corners of his mouth.
Suddenly he didn't know what to say, so he just looked at her back and followed her until he returned to Redwood Town.
"Okay, Lao Xia, I'm going to bed. See you next time." Mu Liuxi waved and was about to log off.
"You... eh" Sherlock hesitated for a moment but didn't ask. He just watched blankly as the other person's figure slowly disappeared. Finally, he left an inexplicable sigh and walked towards the town.
…
"Captain, we failed."
"reason."
"The other party has a helper, a thief, very powerful."
"More powerful than you?"
"It's hard to say, but she caught her out of stealth first."
"I know, let him go for now. After we finish exploring this bloody temple, we will come to Redwood Town. Now that we have found the person, he can't even think about running away. During this time, you two should raise your level first.
Find that place."
"clear!"
…
Regarding the attacker this time, Sherlock also thought about it. In this game, there are not many people he has offended. One is from Wanbang, and the other is from Glory. However, these two guilds seem to be engaging in some kind of conspiracy. At this time,
You probably don't have time to deal with a little shrimp like him.
The prosperous Wu Zetian probably still didn't like him, so he could be eliminated, and then only the Cobra Horn would be left, but how would they know that he was here.
He thought about it for a long time, but still had no precise goal and the amount of information was still too little.
"Forget it, let the soldiers stop us. The worst we can do is run away again, this time to a large city like Waterdeep or Calimport. I don't believe they can still find us."
Sherlock is not a person who likes to cause trouble, but he does not conflict with other players or even forces for interests in the game only once or twice.
As the old saying goes, how much money a professional player can earn depends on how many enemies he has.
When he returned to Sequoia Town, he first found a medicinal herb merchant and collected a bunch of various herbs. There was still a little time before the pet hatched, and he just wanted to increase his proficiency in refining medicine.
I randomly found a pharmacy and had just placed all the various refining props and medicinal materials needed when my communicator suddenly started beeping.
Because of Sherlock's professional relationship, friend requests in his contacts will not be blocked. When he hears this sound, he knows that someone is constantly adding his friends.
Could it be that some business has come to the door? He also has some regular customers in the past few games. When he clicked on it, it turned out that he was an acquaintance, but it didn't look like he was a customer.
Considering the relationship between the two of them, he suddenly contacted me so urgently. He didn't know what was going on.
"Sherlock, do you still have the snake eyes?" As soon as the application was approved, a hoarse voice mixed with the aura of a wretched female gangster came to my face.
To be honest, Kuriuki's hoarse voice is already unique, but Shirai Kuroko's voice is obviously a bit weirder. It's so strange that it's inconsistent, and it forms a huge contrast with her immature face. Most people have heard it.
Once you do it once, you will never forget it.
"What's the matter?" That snake eye had been kept in his warehouse because he didn't know its use and was unwilling to sell it casually.
"3000, sell it to me!"
The other party actually paid 3,000 for this command-level BOSS Snake Eye, which can buy several pieces of fine equipment.
"What are you doing!" Sherlock was also curious about what the purpose of this snake eye was worth spending such a high price on. It's not that he couldn't sell it, but he couldn't just sell it without knowing why.
"It's none of your business, just decide whether to sell it or not."
"You tell me first what's the use of it, and then I'll consider whether to sell it or not."
"3000, you go to the market and ask if the leader's monster materials are sold at this price. You also need to consider whether you are crazy about money..."
Before the other party could finish what she said, Sherlock blocked her directly. It was clearly a seller's market now and he was not in a hurry.
After a while, another friend request came through, it was the female warrior monk Misaka Mikoto.
"Sherlock, Kuroko has a mission here that just needs a pair of snake eyes." Misaka Mikoto said sorry first and then continued: "It's useless for you to hold that one, why not sell it to us, you can decide the price.
.”
I still have a certain fondness for Misaka Mikoto, a female player who seems to be forthright and upright. Seeing that the other party's words were sincere and did not seem to be fake, she did not deliberately embarrass her again.
