"What I want you to do is actually very simple... There will be a gathering of monks in Lianzhou City the day after tomorrow, during which there will also be a trade fair among monks. I need one of the things." The skinny old man said.
He casually threw the bronze sword in his hand back to Su Yan.
Su Yan quickly caught it. This bronze sword was just scrap metal to the old man, but it was worth 15,000 yuan to him.
"Senior, do you want me to help you buy something at the fair?"
"Almost..."
Su Yan breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be just an errand task. As long as he was not asked to fight with those NPC masters, it would be fine.
"But we dark monks have been hostile all year round. It's harder than reaching the sky to make some money, and the things at the fair are priceless..."
"Then what should we do?" Su Yan felt vaguely bad.
"Of course it's my old dark method... pick it up and run, the faster the better."
"..." Su Yan was speechless. Sure enough, it is not unreasonable for dark monks to be hostile to the world.
"Don't worry, your mission is just to pick up a small thing, and I don't want you to kill people and set fires." The old man's face remained as usual, and it was obvious that in his opinion, it was just "getting".
"Senior... I'm just starting out and my power is limited. I'm afraid I'll fail in my trust again."
"It doesn't matter. I can temporarily teach you the art of invisibility. Coupled with your ability to restrain your breath, you shouldn't be discovered as long as you are careful."
"Invisible?!" Su Yan's eyes immediately went straight.
"Well, wearing this ring, just rubbing the gemstone on it can make you temporarily invisible." The old man said and threw over a strange-shaped ring.
As soon as I got the ring, a message came immediately:
Invisibility Ring: After use, you can become invisible. The duration is 30 minutes, the movement speed is reduced by 50%, the skill cooldown time is 1 hour, and it is valid for three days.
Su Yan was suddenly excited. He was actually able to become invisible! Although his movement speed would be reduced by 50% and it had a 1-hour cooldown, it was still a life-saving artifact. What made him depressed was why it was marked with three days at the end.
It works!
However, while putting on the ring, a system prompt suddenly popped up:
Accept the mission: Entrusted by Poison Dragon Master Xu Qi.
Mission requirements: Help Poison Dragon Master Xu Qi obtain the Tianxiang Spirit Fox.
Mission reward: The reputation of the dark camp is increased by 100, the experience is 20,000, and skills can be learned [Dark Extraction: Level 1, absorb the remaining life essence from the corpses of living things, and can restore 20 points of one's own vitality. A dark profession is required.]
Su Yan couldn't help but be startled. He actually triggered the mission. This was the first time he received a mission in this game. But what was surprising was that he was forced to accept the mission without asking whether he agreed.
"This ring also has a small storage space. After you get the things, you can just put them into the ring space. If you fail to bring the fragrant spirit fox back in three days, be careful I will refine you into a zombie!
"The old man's words were so cold that it chilled your heart.
"No problem, I promise to bring that fox." Su Yan, still excited while holding the invisibility ring, replied without hesitation.
**********
As the largest city within a thousand miles, Lianzhou City has not closed its city gates for hundreds of years, but there will be more guards near the city gates at night.
When Su Yan walked into Lianzhou City, his steps were still a little sloppy.
It is really hard to believe that I actually got the legendary invisibility ring. The only regret is that the invisibility ability provided by this ring is not my own ability, so it cannot be reflected in reality.
He had just stepped into the Spring and Autumn Sword Hall with excitement, and was about to return to his assigned residence, but he met Liu Yong head-on.
"Hey, Xiao Su came back so late. How was the harvest today?"
"Forget it, you can't kill monsters without equipment." Naturally, Su Yan didn't dare to talk about the old man, and quickly pretended to be depressed. Of course, in fact, he relied on his little equipment to kill monsters efficiently.
It is indeed pitifully low.
"That's how this game is. It's even harder for us swordsmen to move without equipment. But with good equipment, it's different. The ivory-gold sword has an attack of 8-12, and it can be used at level one. Killing monsters is like chopping vegetables.
Just as simple." Liu Yong comforted with a smile.
"The attack of that weapon is so high? But the price of the ivory gold sword is too expensive. I can't afford it for 300 gold coins."
"Yes, those good equipment are ridiculously expensive, but you don't have to buy them before you can use them." Liu Yong walked to Su Yan, his voice lowered a bit.
Su Yan couldn't help but be stunned and asked doubtfully: "Can I use it even if I don't buy it?"
"Yes, don't you know, those equipments are stored in the sword hall's warehouse. If necessary, you can take them out for use at night, as long as they are returned before dawn."
"Is there such a good thing? Is there no one guarding the warehouse?"
Hearing this, Liu Yong pointed to his chest proudly and said: "Of course there are guards. This month it is my turn to be responsible for guarding. It is rare to meet a friend who is so in line with me. If you need anything, just use it first."
, just send it back before dawn."
Su Yan couldn't help but feel a little moved. Anyway, he was leveling at night. If he changed to those advanced weapons, his leveling efficiency could be at least doubled.
However, thinking about the strict rules of the sword hall, and the lightest punishment for stealing is to cut off one arm and be expelled, I couldn't help but worry in my heart: "Will you really not be discovered if you do that?"
"Don't worry, as long as you come back on time, who will find out? Let's go, let me pick out some weapons to try." Liu Yong said, enthusiastically holding Su Yan's shoulders and walking to the warehouse without any explanation.
The warehouse of the sword hall is indeed very large, with a large amount of materials piled inside, and a dazzling array of weapons and armors of all kinds.
"You take your time and pick out a few items. I'll go and make things easier first."
"OK."
Just as Su Yan picked up a long sword that was curved like a snake, Liu Yong's exclamation suddenly came from outside the door.
"There is a thief, come and catch the thief, someone is stealing things from the warehouse!"
Someone is stealing things from the warehouse?! Su Yan couldn't help but be startled. He was clearly the only one in the warehouse at this moment.
As the shouts rang out from outside, there was a lot of noise in the courtyard. It was obvious that a large number of guards from the sword hall had arrived.
Su Yanbai screamed secretly in his heart, it seemed that he had fallen into a trap.
He immediately hid in a corner and hurriedly rubbed the black gemstone on the ring.
A strange feeling instantly washed over his body like a tide, and his vision became blurry. However, this state only lasted for a few seconds before returning to normal.
At this moment, the ajar door had been kicked open hard, and then Yu Ze and others were seen rushing in with murderous intent. Next to them was Liu Yong.
Su Yan's heart suddenly became filled with anger. It turned out that Liu Yong was actually with Yu Ze and the others. He had only deliberately wanted to get close to him before, but these guys still wanted to harm him!
"Su Yan, you're dead... Hey, what about that guy? Didn't you say he entered the warehouse?" Yu Ze's face quickly turned a little blue. Everything was within his plan, but unexpectedly
Unexpectedly, Su Yan was nowhere to be seen in the warehouse.
"I don't know either... I actually brought him in, and I saw him choosing weapons before I went out to call for help." Liu Yong looked around, and finally had to defend himself in a low voice.
"Then where can he run to..." Several people were confused, but they did not dare to say more because the elders of the sword hall had also heard the news and came over.
After hearing their conversation and seeing their nervous expressions of looking around, Su Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the invisibility ring had really worked.
"The warehouse was stolen?" It was Elder Zhou who hurried over, and his face was filled with anger as soon as he entered.
"No, I just noticed someone approaching and got nervous and alerted the police." Liu Yong quickly bowed and said, as a guard of the warehouse, even if the items were stolen, even if he neglected his duty, the punishment would be extremely severe.
"Really? What about the silver snake sword that was just put into storage today?" Elder Zhou's face turned a little dark.
"It's right in the middle..." Liu Yong hurriedly stretched out his hand to point, but his arm only stretched out halfway and was unable to stretch out anymore, and he was covered in cold sweat.
The place where the sword was originally placed is empty!
"The Silver Snake Sword is a valuable treasure that the sword hall has just acquired. It was intended to be used by the hall master to replace the treasure at the trade fair the next day. You actually lost it?!" Elder Zhou became furious in an instant.
Liu Yong's face turned even pale, and he quickly defended: "I...I didn't. The silver snake sword was clearly still there just now. By the way, it must have been stolen by Su Yan. Elder, it must have been stolen by Su Yan."
"Su Yan? The disciple who just started? I'm afraid he doesn't even know where the warehouse is. What's more, the warehouse is heavily guarded. How could he steal the Silver Snake Sword? Could it be that you neglected your duty tonight?" Elder Zhou said with a look on his face.
He was even more angry because he personally recruited Su Yan.
"No, I will stay here tonight."
"Then there's only one possibility... you're stealing by yourself!" Elder Zhou's words were filled with a chilling tone.
