Chapter 40 Bait

Black Iron Bloodline, Bronze Body, Silver Majesty, Golden Will, Legendary Venerable, Human Saint, Immortal Epic, Immortal Demigod, the names of these levels of power alone are enough to explain a lot.

The Black Iron Bloodline refers to the levels 1 to 20 defined by the system. At this time, most people have just taken up their positions, and the power they can control often comes from their bloodline, but often at this time, the growth path has been determined.

Sounds confusing? Let’s use a system representation to explain...

The following three are the most common melee professions among the three tribes:

"Standard orc berserker template, strength: 15, agility: 8, body: 12, main attribute strength, racial talent violent,"

"Standard dark elf assassin template, strength: 12, agility: 14, body: 9, main attribute agility, racial talent anti-magic skin."

"Standard human warrior template, strength: 12, agility: 8, body: 10, main attribute strength, racial talent...none."

Strength is the physical strength of the body, agility is the combination of reaction and balance, and physical strength is the health and fitness of a life. They are all the most important attributes of melee professions.

In the black iron stage, rookies of all races will use the standard template as their goal and enhance their strength through exercise. The so-called natural power is probably the natural strength attribute plus 2, and as they work hard, they will get better and better.

Get closer and closer to this template, and when all basic abilities are up to standard, it will be time to reach the next level of breakthrough.

Why, it's unfair to complain? The sum of the three melee attributes of orcs and dark elves is 35, while humans only have 30, and they don't have racial talents? I'm so sorry, this world has always been so unfair, and the natural attributes and abilities of races are not equal.

, Otherwise, there would be so many disputes and discrimination.

And with the efforts of both parties, the difference in talent will further expand this injustice. This is like a person on foot and a person on horseback starting at the same time. After the same amount of time, the person on horseback will definitely run farther.

For example, the strength attribute of an orc with ordinary qualifications increases by about 0.1 when he upgrades to a level, and it can increase by about 2 points at level 20, while a human warrior can increase by 1 point at level 20, which is enough to be considered a good candidate for a strength warrior.

Moreover, this is a comparison without considering racial talents. The racial talents of powerful races are often extremely amazing.

It has become the consensus of the world that the actual combat power of warriors of the same rank differs greatly between various races. However, in contrast, humans, the least talented race, grow the fastest. The more powerful the race, the more powerful the race.

Growth is slow and even slower. It takes a hundred years for dragons to become teenagers, and two hundred years for elves to reach adulthood. For humans, seventy or eighty years is enough to go from the prime of life to the peak.

In game terms, the weaker the profession, the less experience is required to upgrade the race. Taking myself as an example, when I was also at the beginning of the legend, the experience bar of the lich was at least three times that of the human archmage.

It's painful to get up.

However, because it is too difficult to break through at each level, this advantage is not great for the top experts, but for creating a large number of low-level warriors (or cannon fodder), mortal races like humans have obvious advantages, and the silver race has obvious advantages.

The elves are good at creating a large number of medium-level strong people. The golden dragon race has a small population, but no one dares to underestimate it.

If the Black Iron level has just started, mainly imitating their predecessors, then the warriors who have reached the bronze body will begin to hone their combat skills, tap their own potential, improve themselves, and shape their perfect combat body.

Simple and easy-to-understand explanations of the game, work hard to learn skills, point talents, and increase attributes...

Silver Dignity, when it reaches this level and its physical body is close to the limit of a mortal, it begins to hone its will, practice combat skills, and combine the power of spirit and will to form a fighting style that is most suitable for itself.

According to the game, the character template has basically taken shape, and the attribute points have increased more slowly. It is too difficult to grind the attributes to grow. You can learn a few big moves to show off.

Golden Will, a strong person at this level begins to combine his own strengths and find a path that suits him. If he can obtain a specific high-level profession and inheritance, he will grow even faster.

In game terms, it means choosing a path and advancing, starting from the root and entering the next level, a new starting point.

The legend going up is the soul emblem, and the holy steps are the world of mental images. I mentioned it a little before, so I won’t go into it for now. At this point, I’m afraid some people will guess why Anne can’t beat Eliza no matter what.

Annie is a human, a mixed-race human with part of the Phoenix bloodline. She is at the peak of her golden age. Although she has no racial talent, her main attribute strength has reached 19 points. At least in terms of basic attributes, she has stepped onto the edge of a legendary warrior. She is quite

In order to get. (Unlike other other world games, the basic attributes of this world are very difficult to increase, but the difference in the later four or five attribute points is huge.)

But her opponent Eliza's race is "Half Demon Blessed by the Abyss", and her race talent is Abyss Summoning. As long as she is willing to respond to the summons and be demonized, she can obtain a huge increase in attributes. At her current level, she is already a "medium"

Demonized, strength + 12 agility + 12 stamina + 12 intelligence + 12 charm + 6 will - 6".

And just this level of bonus was enough to make Annie completely helpless.

The initial strength of Eliza of the demon is 12 points, plus 12 points... a mage strong enough to crush the warriors is born. Coupled with agility and overall physical dominance, the monkey relies on

Defeating dinosaurs with combat skills can only be a joke. No matter how powerful combat skills are, they still have to test the comparison of basic attributes. Therefore, Eliza has the capital to pick up the Excalibur with bare hands.

Coupled with the messy physical skills she taught me, as well as her own magic martial arts combined with ice melee skills, not to mention Annie, who is the pinnacle of gold, even Snow Hoof, a legend, may not be able to win...

....As my favorite disciple, and as a melee mage, Eliza is undoubtedly better than her master.

This is indeed unfair, but compared to Xiaohong's "perfect body of the ancient red dragon, poison, plague, and fire are invalid, and all attributes are increased by 30", Eliza's moderate demonization is already very reliable. I guess she

It means complete demonization, that is, all attributes increase by 20 points, and the willpower drops drastically.

Of course, there is no free lunch in this world, and the power of the Chaos Abyss is destined to be difficult to obtain.

The lowered will will make it more and more difficult for her to resist the summoning of demons, and she will eventually turn into a complete demon. I personally prohibit her from using the "Abyss Summoning" talent.

Even, using the contract magic invented by the devil, this clause was included in the employment contract between Eliza and I. Before the salary settlement contract was paid, she was prohibited from using the demonic ability in an extremely physical and instinctive way.

The source of devils and demons is both the Styx, but the two are undoubtedly mortal enemies. This can be regarded as a disguised use of the power of the Styx to resist the call of the Styx. This is a method I came up with out of no other options.

Find a way out of no way out.

Perhaps, one day, Eliza, like other demons, will be unable to resist the call of the abyss in her bloodline, and like my idiot brother, will walk into the door to hell and the abyss, and completely become a resident of the lower plane.

, but I hope that, with my obstacles, that day will be extended indefinitely, at least, in my lifetime, I will not let this happen.

Well, there are always good and bad in this world. With the racial advantage of this "half-demon", Eliza's current actual combat power will not be inferior to the legendary combat power that other dungeon masters are proud of.

Eliza is indeed very strong. As a human, Anne is weaker. After all, she is only a nineteen-year-old girl, but her peak golden strength is enough to crush human common sense. However, neither Adam nor I are very satisfied. After all, in

In the underground world where there are many powerful players, the legendary level Dungeon Master is just average.

Now, Eliza and Anne are both at their golden peak, and they are both stuck at the stage of condensing their soul emblems...

At this step, it is difficult for outsiders to help. The soul emblems need to be tempered, whether in battle or in life. They need setbacks and failures to discover their own shortcomings. They need hard-fought victories to discover their own advantages and self-confidence. They need everything to be able to change their lives.

The experience that has had an impact, and the two of them are naturally very talented, and the foundation was built by Adam and I. The only thing they lack is experience.

"The dark elves will not be easy to deal with, but with the support of the two demigods Margaret and Adam, they will not dare to touch you directly. Come on, time is running out... Even if I, a butterfly, cause trouble

, the day when the underground world reaches an alliance and counterattacks on the surface will not be far away."

Okay, seriously, that's it for now.

If what I have to do next is left to them, it will not be accumulating experience, but murder.

When I silently walked into the Platinum Order Auction House in Wetan City, there was still a buzz of people everywhere, but the moment I entered, all the sounds disappeared.

Everyone turned their attention to the figure at the door...because he was so bright!

The silver light of order and law stirs on the robe. The mask of the sub-artifact carries the dignity of judging everything. The thick yellow book tied to the left side of the waist shines with the unique rules of the artifact, and the worn-out thread on the waist

The gavel is also full of the brilliance of the power of law, and it is obviously a piece of equipment above sub-artifact.

One artifact and three sub-artifacts, even a true god would be moved. It would be strange if he didn't get robbed when he went out. Maybe the entire underground dragon city would be mobilized for it.

"Humph, I just want to blind you."

But even a fool knows that the only person who should go out with such equipment is a super tough guy.

However, there are always lucky guys everywhere. The next moment, two thieves who were forced by their bosses to stand out came out of the shadows and approached me.

"Spell: Conviction." As luck would have it, this red and black unlucky guy obviously did a terrible bad thing within a few hours, so...

"Spell: Death penalty - Hanging!" Under the death sentence of the sixth ring, the invisible noose directly hung him into the air. Then, it was the sinner's final repentance time before kicking his feet and spitting out his tongue...

...

As the power of law that only targets sinners, in the face of this sixth-level spell (gold level), this poor silver-level thief didn't even have time to scream, and he went straight to death.

In front of the dead body, another unlucky guy was spread out on the ground. He was also frightened. After all, before he had time to react just now, his old partner died inexplicably in front of his eyes, and he was so dead.

awful.

The death of the pawn exploring the path had been expected by those who were interested, but his death was so strange that no one could have calculated it. The blank space that represents the unknown is always the most alarming color.

Ignoring the lucky guy who thought he had survived without committing a crime in the past few hours, I walked to the counter of the auction house on my own, and wherever I touched, it was like Moses parting the sea.

"I'm here to auction an artifact."

Everyone's eyes were on me. As soon as these words were spoken, a thousand waves arose. The eerily quiet auction hall was suddenly filled with buzzing discussions and exclamations.

Of course they will be surprised or even shocked. Let alone artifacts, the auction of a sub-artifact or even an epic weapon will cause a terrible storm and leave traces in history. As for the auction of artifacts, it is destined to become history.

"Ahhh... auction? Okay, okay, you want to auction the artifact? The artifact? The artifact?! Are you sure!!!"

This poor centaur lady had gleaming eyes, was incoherent, and looked like she could no longer accept the reality and was directly broken.

"Well, artifact, congratulations to your auction house. This should be the first artifact auction in the underground world. Your Platinum Order Auction House is destined to leave its name in history."

The centaur lady was still concerned about whether she would leave a mark in history. When she heard that she really wanted to sell the artifact, she rolled her eyes and fell to the ground.

"Artifact = very valuable = many people robbed it = if it broke, I can't afford to pay for it in my life = I was caught and worked as a cow or horse = I was sold in the slave market by evil people with ulterior interests = all kinds of concessions

A shameful and embarrassing experience..." This instantly became an equation in Centaur Anriya's mind...

"I don't want to be sold into slavery and then XXXX." So, this imaginative girl overheated her brain and fainted to the ground.

......... Such a big shot thing is too difficult for her, a rural girl who only left her hometown three months ago because of her obsession with time-travel novels.

"Slave? Who? I am not Sad Wind, I will not be sexually interested in you."

When encountering this situation, even I didn't expect what happened to this little girl, how her expression changed so much, she had everything in one moment, and she screamed such dirty jokes...

But now as an auctioneer, she fainted, what should I do? Go back directly?

"My lord, my lord. I...please hand it to me. I am the manager here, Carlos. This is my business card."

A well-dressed goblin ran over, but looking at his blood-red eyes and messy clothes, it was obvious that he had just received the notice and came in an extremely hasty manner.

"Is this the book you are auctioning?"

It seems that, as the manager of this auction house, Carlos also knows how to order goods and knows that artifacts are often surrounded by the regulatory lines they represent.

But I shook my head and snapped my fingers.

A skeleton soldier came out from behind me, holding a black wooden box in his hand.

Then, the box was opened...

The next second, the entire hall was lit up by starlight. Carlos even thought that the box was a newly plucked star, until the light dissipated...

It was a black scepter, plain and simple, with traces of burnt and cracked ice. It was full of the dust of history. It was a sacred object, but the only thing that shone was the silver gem on it.

The starlight jumped between the gems, and the light also had its own rhythm, just like a breathing creature.

In front of the gems that sparkle like stars on the scepter, the expensive and luxurious mermaid oil eternal lamp from the auction house is as worthless as a cheap kobold candle.

"It's an artifact, it's definitely an artifact. Is that starlight its line of rules... Wait, it's a scepter! It's a scepter!!" Suddenly, Carlos' face was livid, and the goblin's sharp sharp point

Shouts rippled through the hall.

It seems that my goal has been initially achieved. A being who carries three sub-artifacts and one artifact with him. If he takes out one more artifact, most people will subconsciously think that it is real.

"Eternal...Eternal Night!!!!!..." He choked back the rest of the words. He knew how valuable the auction items in front of him were, at least

It is the weight of an empire! Now he is beginning to envy his fainted rookie. He wants to faint and be done with it.

"Yes, the Scepter of Eternal Night." I ruthlessly shattered his last bit of luck and looked at the goblin with a look of despair in amusement.

"...Scepter of Eternal Night?"

My voice was not loud, but when everyone present was staring at us, this voice was enough. Soon, the fact that Yong Ye Quan had appeared spread throughout the entire hall.

Most people were shocked at first, then showed greedy joy, and finally turned into fear...

"Call everyone and leave quickly, something big is going to happen here!"

"Let's go, let's go. Kai doesn't want to go? OK, let's go and let this fool die here."

The artifact must be alive to be used. According to the rules of the underground world, idiots who are incapable of possessing treasures will die sooner or later. When the news of the emergence of the scepter spreads, countless top forces will swarm in. If you want to escape at that time,

, it’s really too late.

Of course, there will be no shortage of fools and people talking about money over life. Many people filed out, but some people stayed. They were just afraid that the thief died in a strange way and did not dare to take action for the time being.

I didn't care at all about those unintentional peepers. Instead, I smiled and said to the trembling goblin holding the scepter.

"There are only two requirements for the auction. One is that the auction will be held at three o'clock in the afternoon thirty days later, and all individuals and forces can participate. Second, if the auction items are lost, I want you to compensate me. This includes the 'Mir Oasis' and the 'Cloud Water Tank'

Twenty top dungeons including 'Flying Dragon City' will compensate me."

"What... compensate, compensate, your underground city? I... there is an underground city... Mir, I understand, it belongs to the Lion King!!! You are here for the Lion King

Yes!"

Well, the poor goblin simply rolled his eyes and followed in the footsteps of his subordinates.

And he did tell me my goal. Of course I came here for Tao. I want to open an auction house in this city. How can I do it without a backstage? And the backstage of this auction house is the orc Huang Tao. Angry Fang,

And those dungeons I mentioned are also his property!

Hearing the name of the underground overlord, another part of the "audience" was awakened to reason and instinctive fear, and chose to leave. Sometimes, knowing too much is also the cause of death.

"Oops, I fainted again, is there anyone who can take care of me?"

The staff members affected by my gaze either avoided their gaze or simply fell down and pretended to be dead...

"Haha, isn't this the Sleepless Man? Long time no see. Are you coming to the auction? Okay, we will take this order."

A rough figure came in from the door accompanied by loud laughter. Before anyone came in, the sound echoed in the hall.

It still looks like the one he saw outside the city of Sulfur Mountain. The one-eyed old lion has thick hair, and his muscles are not exaggerated. The scorpion tail on the back of his head drags to the ground. The seemingly ordinary black leather armor suit is actually all

Legendary equipment that is hard to buy.

At this time, the old Manticore Beast King was smiling cheerfully on his own territory, as if he didn't care at all about his previous disastrous defeat and the loss of his troops.

"Oh, old man, you are not dead. You are indeed a man who can use his own soldiers as human shields. You are so thick-skinned that you still dare to appear in front of me even if you risk your life. You are not afraid that I will kill you directly.

."

You don't want to expose someone's shortcomings when you hit them, but I decided to expose their shortcomings. In an instant, the old lion's face suddenly became distorted.

War is an extension of politics, and big shots are all about saving face. Under normal circumstances, no matter how fierce the dungeon masters fight in private, if they have the opportunity to sit together in public, they will give each other face and communicate with each other with nice words.

This was probably the first time he had seen an opponent who did not give face to him, and in an instant, his face turned livid.

This is indeed the normal situation...but why should I give this bastard face!!

The old lion held the hilt of the sword behind his back with both hands, but then he was dazzled by the magical weapon I was wearing.

Tao thought of the forbidden spell that affected the whole city, and the invisible and majestic Eye of the Sky, which seemed to be ready to judge everything. Even the Orc King was a little scared and could not make a desperate decision.

"Sir!! There is a no-war agreement in Wetan City!"

Realizing his master's hesitation, a fox-orc wearing a robe took a step forward, seemingly reminding his master of the rules of the city, but in fact it was a stepping stone for his boss to step down.

Someone tried to dissuade him, but slowly, Tao's face relaxed and he loosened his grip on the sword.

Of course, neutral cities have restrictions on not fighting, but there are also arenas for resolving personal grievances. Besides, when have these arrogant underground overlords ever enforced rules?

But then, everyone around was exclaiming. They couldn't believe that the invincible Orc Emperor could actually be defeated. Could it be that the rumor that the Orc Emperor led an army on an expedition, but was frustrated in a remote area and the entire army was destroyed, was true?

Yitao's behavior in the past, and his lack of verbal abuse in the face of his face, was enough for the rumors to be confirmed, and the reputation of the Orc King was seriously damaged!

But then, the one-eye looking around made all the restless people stop... Even if the news might be true, it might spread. If Tao misunderstood that it was him who spread it, then

It would be too unjust to die.

The one-eyed orc king suppressed his anger, but it was obviously impossible for him to come into contact with the "rogue" in front of him, so the fox orc stepped forward again under the signal from his eyes.

"Businessmen, when they come to the door as a customer, they should naturally greet you with a smile, even if the customer is a bad customer, don't you think so, Mr. Sleepless Man?" These words are not humiliating, nor are they offensive, and at the same time, they hit and beat,

But it was very funny, and what he said was very accurate. I laughed out loud and ignored the bad words just now.

If there is a ladder, just go down. After all, I am here to set up a trap today, not to make a fuss.

"So, have you accepted my auction order?"

"Yes, of course I did."

"Okay, then just sign the agreement and use mine."

The little fox took the parchment contract and turned pale on the spot. What was written on it was not the common lingua franca, but the devil language of hell. This was a contract belonging to the devil.

The above conditions are exactly what I said. First, the auction will be held in thirty days. Second, after losing it, it will be given to me in twenty dungeons. The only difference is that there is an additional restriction. If these two conditions are not fulfilled,

, the signer will fall into the River Styx and never stand up again.

For humans and orcs, there is no difference between swearing by the River Styx and swearing by the sun. Anyway, they are not effective at all. But for the evil gods, demons, and devils who live in the lower plane, their power and life come from

On the Styx, even if she breaks the Styx oath she made, even Rose, the Spider Queen, will directly turn into a little spider.

Of course, when I took out this contract, I also made it clear that this Orc King was just a demon in orc skin...

The little fox tremblingly handed the contract to Tao, and then was slapped away by the angry orc emperor.

But he was holding the contract and obviously hesitated. The forces behind him were very interested in the scepter, and if he let it go...

"If you don't accept the order, I will give it to the black pearl auction house next door." I increased the price in due course.

Behind that very pearl auction house is another underground city overlord, Estner Ailul. The power behind him is the devil. Regardless of the background or the reality of competing for dominance of the underground covenant, Tao and Estner

They are all destined to be mortal enemies.

"If Astner holds an auction for the city management and thus forms an alliance with Sulfur Mountain City, then it will be three against two, and Moriel is completely unreliable... No, the worst result is that he uses those three

Ten days revealed the secret of the Scepter of Eternal Night."

But then, Tao naturally thought, Estner can analyze the secret of the scepter, but he can't analyze it himself? Even if his dark shaman is not very good at this aspect, he also has wizards, so it's really not possible...

...Who else can I ask for help from behind?

"No...if I really reveal the powerful secret of Lord Yongye myself, I can become the second Lord Yongye. Do I still need the support of that existence?"

In front of Chongbao, countless thoughts were surging in the back of his mind, but in the end, they turned into one sentence.

"I'll sign, but I need to inspect the goods before signing."

"certainly."

So, I tried very hard to hold back my laughter. Why? No matter what those legal professions do, those "yes", "yes" and "real" really make me laugh.

Before leaving with the signed contract, I dropped a few words.

"You may regret it."

Not surprisingly, what followed was the roar of a lion.

"The Orc King never regrets!!"

Okay, I'll keep laughing...

That night, I heard that the old lion was bored in the study all night, and killed seven strategists, eight mages, and six dark shamans, including the little fox. When he came out, he kept muttering "

I've obviously heard the call, but how do I turn it on?"

That night, I heard that the old lion moved directly to the military camp after suffering numerous attacks at the auction house, but he still suffered more than thirty thieves, five army mutinies, and four raids by other dungeon masters...

....

That night, it is said that countless underground city masters began to rush to Wetan, preparing to attend the auction 30 days later. Of course, those who moved with them could not be counted as their troops.

That night, it is said that all the necromancers and thieves began to go crazy, and the passage leading to Vitan was filled with all kinds of dangerous elements. At the same time, someone sent information that they saw the undead monarch from the surface world in the underground passage.

.

I heard that the next day, the old lion turned gray overnight and the person aged ten years...

But I looked at the slightly white sky, waiting for the arrival of dawn.

"The wind has finally picked up, but this is just the beginning."

PS. Others are late in writing, but I am late in writing more smoothly... It is also time to introduce the power system.
