Chapter 156 The Lonely Old Man

I spent the whole night without talking, just killing monsters and leveling up.

At dawn, I was promoted to level ) as I wished. After a night of hard work, my level was no longer at the bottom. As for everyone else in the team, they were all level 30, and the monk reached level 31 exaggeratedly.

Looking at the experience of leveling up to level 30, I really couldn’t do it anymore, and everyone was very tired, so I agreed to wake up in the afternoon and continue, and then everyone would take potions and change equipment with me before flying back to the city.

I went to repair equipment, organize my backpack, and prepare for the second mission.

I was helpless. I could only set up a tent in the wild and go offline. Moreover, the durability of the equipment (killing monsters is lower than PK loss) was about the same. I had to find a novice village to repair my broken metal.

But before that, I had to find a relatively safe place to log off the line. So I returned to the abandoned town we passed through before.

This town basically maintained its appearance before it was abandoned, but it looked dilapidated after the buildings were empty. Occasionally there were skeleton warriors wandering around the streets, but I easily dealt with them.

Looking at the nearby houses, some have collapsed due to the corrosion of time, while others are crumbling and will not last long. It seems that one of the mansions in the town seems to be the best preserved.

So it is called a mansion, mainly because it is large enough, more domineering than other huts in terms of shape, and the eaves are somewhat decorated.

The game also talks about hierarchies. You don’t need to guess that this mansion is the mayor’s house.

That’s it, just find a place to set up a tent and go offline!

I pushed open the dusty old door, making a "squeaking" sound that had accumulated over the years. The bright moonlight did not bring any light to the place, and it still looked pitch black.

At this time, I vaguely saw a slightly human-shaped luminous body in the middle of the house. It was an old man with white hair and beard, leaning on a dead wood cane, but it was floating in the air.

No feet.

"No one has been here for a long time!" the old man said with a sigh, giving me a plaintive look, as if he was a hungry and thirsty woman complaining about why her husband came home so late.

I was shocked at first, but then I realized that this should be an NPC, a ghost NPC to be exact. In such a large plague land, it is impossible to say that there is no mission, but the design is also

To be reasonable, normal NPCs cannot always stay in such a dead place waiting for players to pick up tasks, so it is better for ghosts to be the issuers of tasks.

I felt relieved after knowing it was an NPC: "Old man, is there anything I can do for you?"

As a result, the old man still said the same sad line: "No one has been here for a long time!"

I'm embarrassed!

He walked over and asked, "Old man, is there anything I can do for you?"

The old man still said the same thing: "No one has been here for a long time!"

I began to suspect that he is just a voice repeater, and he only knows one line. Forget it, if an NPC only has one line with you, it means that he does not want to see you and will not give you a task. I am going to go to the second chapter.

Take a look upstairs, there may be other ghost NPCs, if not, set up a tent and go offline.

As soon as I turned around, the old man immediately said: "Young man, don't you want to talk to me, an old man? No one has been here for a long time!"

I hesitated for a moment, then stopped, turned around and asked, "Okay, tell me!"

The old man floated over, leaning on his crutches tremblingly and said: "This has to start from three thousand years ago. At that time, this was still a beautiful, prosperous and healthy town... (I thought he would talk for a long time, so it was more comfortable to change it.

I sat down in a comfortable posture and started to pack my backpack, omitting more than n words) and it became what it is today!"

"I deeply sympathize with what you are going through!" I said with a pretense of infinite regret. If my mother hadn't taught me since I was little that it was rude to interrupt someone when they were talking, I would have wanted to say it a long time ago. He said that the old man is long.

As soon as I got on the phone, I wasn't interested in finding out. I'd spent the whole night browsing mobs, and now I'm so exhausted that I just want to go offline and sleep.

"These are not the important points!" the old man said conclusively.

I suddenly felt that it was a waste for this old man not to write an article. He had been talking for almost twenty minutes, and I almost fell asleep while listening, but he still hadn’t gotten to the point.

"Okay, what's the point?" I asked bluntly.

"There is a very inconspicuous hut deep in the cemetery at the back! The evil necromancer Da** is hiding there! He uses evil necromancy to awaken the dead who are sleeping here and help him realize his ulterior ambitions

.You have to stop him!"

"Why? Why me?" Seeing that the old man said it with certainty, it seemed that it had to be me, so I asked this question.

The old man's quiet and kind face showed that he was still older than he was before, and he pointed at his feet: "Because you are the only one who came here!"

"Okay! I accept your explanation! But what does that necromancer do have none of my business? It's no good for me!" I said very philistinely, why did this old guy obviously complete the task for me, but the system was delayed?

No task prompts will pop up.

If you don't receive a mission, there will be no reward no matter how much you do.

"This is a great feat of eliminating harm for the people! Don't you want to be a hero respected by everyone?" The old man tried to play tricks on me to no avail.

I shook my head, stood up and prepared to go upstairs to set up a tent and log off the assembly line. I am not the kind of person who is easily attracted by fame and reputation, I want to see something substantial.

"Okay! I can give you some appropriate rewards, but these rewards are all buried in a mysterious place, and you have to get them yourself!" The old man said and sent the task prompt.

Mission Tips: Are you qualified enough to accept the mission to eliminate the evil necromancer? (S level)

As soon as I saw the S-level, my heart jumped. It seemed that I hadn’t received such an awesome mission for a while. It seemed that the necromancer was at least an elite boss of more than 30 levels. As for the reward, it was indeed a card similar to

Maybe I really have to dig out the treasure map stuff myself, and I don’t know if it’s true or not?

After I accepted the task, I stretched and continued upstairs, but the old man stopped me: "Young man, since you have accepted my commission, why don't you get started?"

I said without looking back: "You've been waiting here for so long anyway, and you don't care if you wait an extra day or two! And I need to rest! And I need some time to gather my partners and complete this arduous task together.

Task!"

The old man was obviously a little afraid that I would regret it, so he asked hurriedly: "How long will it take for your partner to arrive?"

"It's hard to say. As you know, this place is still far away from Silvermoon City, and we have to pass through Sunset Canyon, where spiders are rampant!" What I said was just an attempt to perfunctory him, asking him to leave me alone and accept the mission.

After that, I wanted to go offline and take a rest before coming back up to continue.

But the old man didn't think so. He hurriedly stopped me and said: "I have a teleportation scroll here that can travel to and from nearby villages. As long as you open the teleportation scroll, you can travel to and from the nearest villages. As long as your friend goes to a nearby village

Assemble, you can get here directly without skipping the Sunset Canyon through the teleportation scroll!"

Is there such a good thing? I am still worried that if I have to go back to repair the equipment, it will take me a lot of time just on the road.

I almost snatched it away without hesitation, "Thank you!"

The old man looked a little pitiful, "When did the young hero..."

I said a little impatiently: "Old man, you are quite old, why are you still so impatient?"

The old man said helplessly: "It will be dawn soon! I will disappear soon..."

I also stopped. I couldn't turn a blind eye to such a poor old man who was about to disappear.

"Are you going to disappear?" I asked suspiciously. He must have been there for a long time. It couldn't be such a coincidence.

"Yes!" the old man said sadly, "When the sun rises, the sunlight passing through the dark sky will cause serious harm to me! I will disappear until night falls and the moon rises again.

Appear!"

I'm going to go offline and go to bed decisively!
