System: You have been able to accept the hidden mission [Mara's Last Wish]. Do you confirm your acceptance?
After handing in the mission, Qin Jian just upgraded and could take on this level 2 hidden mission. There are never too many missions. This was the moment he had been waiting for, so Qin Jian quickly clicked to confirm.
After confirming, the parchment letter in his hand lit up with a soft light, and then the system beeped. Qin Jian found that his mission log also lit up. He quickly opened it and took a look. What jumped into his eyes was a mission.
describe:
…
The evil Lich King and his Scourge have invaded our homeland in recent years. Adult men have taken up arms and gone to the distant King's Capital of Lordaeron to resist the Scourge's invasion.
My husband, Samuel Phipps, and his most trusted friend, Saltan Condon, joined the team that came to the village to recruit soldiers. Looking at their retreating figures, I don’t know if we can see each other again in this life.
Seeing that, they can only pray and hope that Almighty God will bless their safety.
…
A year later, the war finally ended, but the bad news came immediately. Saltan came back to see me with the pension after Samuel's death... But what's the use of my money... Can't I be allowed to see Samuel again?
Do you want me to take a look?
…
I am about to leave this world, maybe I can meet my dear Samuel again after death... If it is possible... I just want to say that it is possible... I really hope to be buried with Samuel, but it is a pity that they are both
He said that Samuel's bones could not be found because the Lich King, who deserves to be killed by a thousand cuts, turned all our relatives into zombies and skeleton soldiers...
Samuel...my dear love...how wonderful it would be to see you again.
…
The entire mission log is like a short diary, which contains a woman's deep love and attachment for her husband. To complete the mission, Samuel's remains need to be buried in the tomb of this woman named Marla.
.
"Where is Mara's tomb?"
This task is not difficult, and is obviously just a plot task, but often this kind of task is the most annoying, because it is difficult to find the context of the task if you are confused.
"Wait a minute! Saltan? Is he the guard captain I met when I took on the brainless zombie mission?" Qin Jian slapped his forehead, and there was a hidden secret!
It's just that Saltan is no longer in the church, and I don't know where he went. I'd better find an NPC and ask.
Tikes Village is not big, so it is not difficult to find a well-known NPC. Qin Jian found out where Saltan lived from the recruit NPC who took the mission, and walked around the village.
We arrived at a dilapidated wooden house, which was the residence of the guard captain Saltan.
Entering the wooden house, Qin Jian suddenly found a tall figure sitting on the only wooden chair in the house. It was Saltan who Qin Jian was looking for.
Saltan silently wiped a long sword in his hand with a dirty rag. Through the dim light, Qin Jian couldn't help but have the illusion that Saltan's single eye was filled with a subtle and crystal light.
The expression on his face was indescribably weird, as if he was thinking about something.
The moment Qin Jian stepped into the wooden house, Saltan felt that someone had entered his room. The expression on his face turned cold and returned to his original rigid and serious expression.
Raising his head, Saltan took a deep look at Qin Jian with his remaining left eye and said: "Recruit, I remember you! What do you want from me? If you want to hand over the task, you can go to Elle
Si, I'm very busy now, if you have nothing else to do, you can leave!"
"This NPC is really cool... He just chases people away with words. Are you busy? I think you are too idle... If there wasn't a mission, I wouldn't bother to come to you."
Although Qin Jian was full of curses, he could only endure it in order to complete the task, so he gave Sartan a chest-beating military salute, and then said: "Captain Sartan, I have something here, maybe you know it...
"
Saltan asked in surprise: "Oh? What?"
Qin Jian quickly took out the sheepskin letter and handed it to Saltan. Qin Jian found that when Saltan saw the sheepskin letter, his body trembled obviously.
He grabbed the parchment letter in his hand, glanced at it twice, then turned to stare at Qin Jian, shouting in a voice that was almost like a roar: "You! How did you get this letter!? Do you think you have been reading this letter?"
Killed Samuel’s zombie wandering far outside the village!?”
Qin Jian felt confused in his heart and thought to himself: "Grandma, you are so stupid! Why is this npc so excited? Is it a reverse mission? It's not that unlucky, is it!?"
The so-called reverse mission means that after the player receives a certain mission, he excitedly kills monsters to complete the mission, and then finds the mission to accept the NPC to hand in the mission, only to find that not only can he not get the mission reward, but because of the complexity of killing and accepting the NPC.
I was angered by the monster related to the task, so I was killed by the NPC who took over the task. It was a completely unlucky and thankless ending.
However, the NPCs who undertake such weird tasks are usually evil characters who are inherently evil and dishonest in their words. However, this Saltan does not look like such a person, and now the server has just been opened and players are allowed to touch it.
I'm afraid it's too unreasonable to face such a mission...
But now Saltan's eyes were wide-eyed and furious, as if he was about to pounce on him and eat him. Qin Jian really didn't know how to advance or retreat. He slowly moved one foot out.
If the situation becomes dire after entering the room door, just turn around and run as far as you can.
"Damn useless mission... Anyway, the mission in this village has been completed. At worst, I won't stay here anymore. I will go outside to farm monsters and reach level five, then go to Deathstroke Town!"
Qin Jian thought like this. With his current strength, it is impossible to defeat Saltan. Saltan is a question mark-level combat NPC. He is not comparable to the civilian NPCs in the village. He can probably defeat him with just one sword.
Burp yourself.
As if he had seen through Qin Jian's thoughts, Sartan sneered and threw out the long sword in his hand with a clang. The long sword flew towards Qin Jian quickly. When he subconsciously lowered his head to avoid it, he was deeply shocked.
It was inserted deeply into the wooden door frame above Qin Jian's head.
Looking at Youzi's slightly trembling sword, Qin Jian felt as if his scalp was going to explode. At this time, Saltan's words rang out: "Recruit! I really want to kill you with one sword! Because you killed me the most loyal
My friend—Samuel, even though it was just his shell..."
Qin Jian heard the meaning of Saltan's words. It was obvious that he didn't want his own life, so he felt relieved. He knew that all this seemed to be a ploy for this mission, and he was not busy running away at this time.
Well, let’s wait and see how Saltan will react next.
Sure enough, Saltan's tone obviously slowed down, and he sat down on the wooden chair again. Looking at the parchment letter in his hand, he suddenly sighed heavily and said:
"Myra is such a good woman... Myra and Samuel grew up together. Later I found myself falling in love with Myra. Unfortunately, Myra and Samuel were already in love by then. Samuel
You are my best friend and I can only wish them well.
Later, the Scourge came over from the north, and men from all over the country were recruited to fight on the front lines. Samuel and I joined the army. At that time, Mara and Samuel had just gotten married...
The war was crueler and longer than each of us imagined. During a battle to support the Kingdom of Alterac, our people were ambushed by the Scourge. Most of them died. Samuel tried to cover
I also died in the battle...
I failed to bring back Samuel's bones. You don't know those damn demons, those despicable and filthy bastards! They turned all our dead comrades into zombies and skeletons. Samuel, my brother,
He was not spared either.
After the war, I was discharged from the army early and returned to my hometown because I was seriously injured. When I saw the beautiful Mara’s big expectant eyes, I really didn’t know what to say...
I knew that I could not hide the news of Samuel's death, so I had to bring the bad news to this unfortunate woman myself. This is what I thought and did at the time.
Mara is very strong. Although I heard her crying outside her house several times late at night, she still lived strong.
She only asked me for one thing, that is, she hopes to find Samuel's bones, even just a small section. Unfortunately, I can't do anything about this kind woman's little wish...
Alas, Mara's tragedy did not end here. Less than half a year after I returned to Tix Village, the war situation on the frontline also went from bad to worse. Then the great plague spread across various places, and some people in Tix Village were also infected with the plague.
People in the village were desperate to escape, and Nuo Da's village soon became a place of death.
Marla was also infected with the plague. When I found her, it was too late. The plague had invaded her internal organs and she was hopeless.
I decided to stay with her. Seeing her getting weaker day by day, I felt unspeakable pain in my heart.
In the later stage, she was so weak and unconscious. Even so, she still couldn't forget Samuel, but I knew I couldn't help her...
Mara died soon after, and I cremated her and buried her ashes at the foot of the mountain south of the village, where we used to play when we were children.
When I found out that I was also infected with the plague, I wasn’t too surprised or afraid, because everyone I loved in this world had passed away. Maybe, death might just be a good thing for me?
I don't know when I died, nor when I woke up again... When I woke up again and crawled out of the tomb, everything became unrecognizable.
The beautiful Tirisfal Glades has become a thing of the past. The powerful Kingdom of Lordaeron, the great King Terenas Menethil II, the Kingdom of Alterac, the Kingdom of Stromgard, and the
