Chapter two hundred and ninety seventh treasure mission
Returning to the Fallen Abyss, Zhao Xi felt that his whole body was not well.
His head felt like it was going to explode. He was top-heavy and his vision was blurred. Everything in front of him was a double image. The hangover had obviously not disappeared just because he was back online.
It doesn't need to be so real, right? Zhao Xi couldn't laugh or cry. He was still in the tavern in the bloody camp, lying on the counter and unable to get up. He was so dizzy that he was not very conscious.
Then the next moment, someone raised his head and drank a mouthful of cold, sour and bitter liquid. His drunkenness quickly dissipated, and his strength seemed to return to his body in an instant.
"Thanks!"
Zhao Xi straightened up, shook his head and said to the bartender: "This stuff is pretty good."
The minotaur bartender said with a smile: "Of course it's good. This is the mucus scraped from the swamp snail. It is best used to relieve hangovers after being prepared. This cup is given to you for free."
Holy shit!
Zhao Xi almost vomited on the spot. He really wanted to punch the opponent's honest-looking face.
He secretly swore in his heart that he would never drink so much in games in the future. It was like spending money to find trouble!
"Brother Knight, you are finally online!"
At this time, a thief in black carefully walked around the sleeping tauren on the ground and came to Zhao Xi's side: "Do you still remember me?"
Of course Zhao Xi was impressed by him: "Yeah!"
If Zhao Xi remembered correctly, the other party had approached him twice to ask him to join him for some mission.
It's just that people are unpredictable. Especially in the Fallen Abyss, the players here are carrying a lot of PK values, and few of them are kind people. It may be a trap if it is a mission, so you have to guard against it.
However, Zhao Xi felt that this thief was very sincere and did not look like a cunning person.
Of course, the most important thing is that with his current strength, he is really not afraid of others playing tricks - in the face of absolute power, any conspiracy will be easily crushed into powder!
"Has your mission not been completed yet?" Zhao Xi asked.
There was a wry smile on the thief's face. He looked around and said, "Brother Niu, can we talk?"
Zhao Xi was surprised: "Do you know me?"
The thief smiled and said: "I'm afraid there are not many people who don't know the Paladin Zhao Daniu. Brother Niu, I watched the arena PK you played in the bloody battle this morning three times. It is already the most popular video on the main plane forum today.
Got it!"
His eyes flashed with hot light. He seemed to have made up his mind: "If Brother Niu is willing to help, I will give you 30% of the proceeds from this task. I promise not to let you suffer!"
Zhao Xi thought for a moment and said, "Let's talk in detail here."
The last time he heard from a thief that he could get the Tears of the Fallen Angel, he had some ideas at the time. But because he still had a mission and had doubts, he neither agreed nor refused.
Now that the mission is completed, leaving the Fallen Abyss has naturally become a top priority. It is impossible to say that Zhao Xi is not interested in Tears of the Fallen Angels, and judging from the other party's tone, this mission does not seem to be simple.
The two of them found a seat in the corner of the tavern and sat down. It was now morning, and there were not many guests in the tavern. There were only those sleeping tauren, so they were not worried about being overheard by others.
Probably to prove his sincerity, the thief took out a scroll from his arms and unfolded it in front of Zhao Xi: "I'm not hiding anything from Brother Niu. What I'm doing now is the last link of a series of tasks, the treasure task!"
When it comes to what tasks are the most attractive in "Glory", the treasure task is definitely one of them.
Ancient lost civilizations, relics buried under the ruins, secrets inherited by families and private collections of NPCs are all elements that constitute treasure missions. Although many treasure missions are in name only, in the end you may get something.
Items that are not worth the money, but some players use them to become rich overnight.
Generally speaking, the more difficult the treasure mission, the higher the probability of obtaining truly valuable wealth. Zhao Xi looked at the scroll that the thief showed to him, and it was filled with densely drawn graphics.
This large picture is composed of five parts. It looks like a structural diagram of a large building. There are also words on the side that Zhao Xi cannot understand. The overall production is quite exquisite, and it is definitely not a shoddy thing.
Details are important. This scroll is undoubtedly the most common key prop in treasure missions - the treasure map. If it itself is crude and crude, Zhao Xi would also doubt whether things are really as the other party implies.
He thought for a while, reached out and tapped on the scroll: "Tell me the details. Don't worry, even if I don't join, I will never leak your information."
The thief directly took out the most important treasure map. On the one hand, he wanted to show his sincerity, but on the other hand, he also had the intention of dragging Zhao Xi into the trap.
It's just that Zhao Xi could easily fall into the trap and circumvent the circle easily. The thief could only smile: "No, I absolutely believe in your character, Brother Niu. You are a professional expert and will not trick a little person like me!"
Zhao Xi smiled and said nothing, nor did he say anything.
Seeing the attitude he showed, the thief gritted his teeth and said: "My series of tasks has a total of five links. The first four links have been completed and I have not received any rewards. I only got this treasure map after completing the fourth link.
The clue prop for the last link!”
Are there any rewards for completing the first four rings?
Zhao Xi suddenly became interested.
Such situations are very rare, but not impossible. This means that the tasks in the first four links are all set up for the last link. It also means that completing the tasks in the last link will get the most generous rewards!
The thief continued: "This treasure map is the structural diagram of Hellboy's castle. This castle is deep in the Cape Swamp in the northwest. I have explored the route and found this castle, but I have not been able to enter it."
He said calmly: "It would be impossible for me to complete this task by myself, so I have been looking for helpers for the past two days, but you also know the situation here..."
The thief showed a helpless expression: "Reliable teammates are harder to find than a senior virgin!"
This somewhat vulgar metaphor made Zhao Xi couldn't help laughing: "Are you still a student?"
In "Glory", college students are one of the main game groups. The number of unions such as the certain university alliance is quite large. Since the members are relatively united, their strength cannot be underestimated.
The thief was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head in embarrassment: "I am a senior this year, and it is not easy to find a job. I thought if I could earn some living expenses in the game, I would try to become a professional gamer."
Zhao Xi nodded and asked, "How many helpers have you found now?"
The thief said: "There are currently three in total. One of them is my best friend. He specially killed the PK value to come to the Fallen Abyss to help me with tasks. He is a level 27 berserker. His equipment is only average, but he is absolutely reliable!"
"There is also a level 26 archer and a level 28 fire mage. The equipment is pretty good."
"By the way, I am a level 26 thief, and my name is Xiaosha, the shark's shark!"
The thief Xiaosha swallowed his saliva and asked: "Brother Niu, do you think the five of us are enough?"
Zhao Xi smiled and said: "You included me even before I agreed? Then how did you know that the last reward includes Tears of the Fallen Angel?"
Little Shark almost scratched his own scalp: "I'm just guessing, and I'm not sure. It's just that everyone wants Tears of the Fallen Angel, so I..."
This guy!
Zhao Xi couldn't help but shook his head. The other party was obviously not sincere and a little cunning and calculating.
Xiao Shar thought Zhao Xi had refused, and said disappointedly: "Is it really not possible?"
He knows the difficulty of the task best, but it is very difficult to find helpers in the Fallen Abyss, and he dare not find real professional masters, because it is possible that the task rewards will be taken away by force.
Xiaosha had been observing Zhao Xi for some time and felt that he was more reliable. Now that he understood Zhao Xi's identity, he made up his mind to recruit him into the team.
Unexpectedly, even after paying 30% of the price, he still failed to convince Zhao Xi.
