As soon as the strong man came over, Jasmine became habitually nervous.
Her body blurred slightly, and her real body had disappeared, leaving only an illusion in place.
Sun Ran smiled and did not stop him.
The strong man approached, pulled up a stool and sat down. A deep voice came from under the cloak: "I am Baron Charlie."
"It's an honor to meet you." Sun Ran bowed slightly according to the etiquette of the dragon world.
But Jasmine still didn't believe it: "You're talking nonsense, how can you prove your identity?"
"The little girl is very cautious, yes." Charlie complimented perfunctorily, and then looked at Sun Ran: "You should ask your companion how he determined the authenticity of my identity."
So, Jasmine looked at Sun Ran.
Sun Ran shrugged: "A person with a hidden face appeared in the tavern. No one was curious. Even the owner of the tavern didn't take a second look, indicating that he was a regular customer. He was still so mysterious in Baiyun City. As soon as he entered the door, he was immediately
Who else is coming towards us but Charlie?"
"Oh." Jasmine's body blurred again, changing from an illusion to her real body.
Charlie looked at the leftover rabbit meat on the table and said calmly: "You have passed my first test and are qualified to cooperate with me. I have booked a room on the second floor. Come with me and let's have a good talk."
."
He stood up and walked to the second floor of the tavern first, followed by Sun Ran and Jasmine.
After walking for a while, Jasmine suddenly realized it and asked angrily: "It turns out that you were the one who ordered the poison just now! Why did you want to harm us?"
Charlie was walking on the stairs. Hearing this, he paused and endured it. In the end, he couldn't hold it back anymore. He suppressed his anger and said: "If you are an ordinary person, your reaction speed is fine. If you want to become a qualified
Orderer, please be smarter!"
The job of being an Order is like walking a tightrope. If you make a mistake, you will be kicked out. For someone with such a brain like Jasmine, I really don’t know how she got to Baiyun City safely.
Besides, he is a Bronze Order Orderer, so he will lose points if he cooperates with these trainee Order Order members, so he must strictly control the situation!
Sun Ran looked on with a smile.
Jasmine curled her lips: "Who knew you would be so cruel to your companions."
"I wasn't a companion before, but I am now." Charlie replied and blocked Jasmine's mouth.
The room that Charlie booked was at the innermost part of the second floor of the tavern. It was very spacious, but it was not a place for secret conversations. There was also a narrow and secret room in this spacious room.
There is a square wooden table in the secret room, with a candle lit on the table, and nothing else.
After the three of them sat down, Charlie pulled down his hood, revealing the face of an older man in his thirties with a brown beard.
"Uncle, you are very handsome and very masculine." Jasmine praised sincerely. She did not hold grudges and had forgotten what happened just now.
"I know." Charlie nodded, agreeing with Jasmine's statement, then turned his eyes to Sun Ran, and his tone became solemn: "Our task this time is very difficult."
Charlie has been secretly observing the two of them since they entered the city. He now believes that Sun Ran is a more reliable partner, while Jasmine is a little out of line. Moreover, he also already knows about Sun Ran's promotion, so he should pay attention to him and Sun Ran.
Lots of land.
"Please elaborate." Sun Ran also became serious. This bronze orderer has lived in the dragon world for a long time, and he has also earned the title of baron. His understanding of this virtual world is not comparable to that of the two newcomers.
Charlie began to tell the details: "Our opponent this time is very difficult. In the dragon world, his identity is the king of dragons, his body structure is level four, and he can freely transform between human form and dragon. The reason why he has never been
Appearing openly, it is said that he is looking for the God of Command Ring. His true identity in the real world is not simple. Judging from his work style, he should be a member of the 'Poisonous Scorpion' mercenary group."
"'Poison Scorpion' mercenary group?" Sun Ran frowned.
This is a world-famous saboteur organization. They are not like Sun Ran who only enters the game to open cheats for personal interest, but for money.
If someone wants to attack a virtual company, or wants to take revenge on someone in the virtual world, or for various other reasons, they will offer a reward, and then someone will take over the task.
Those who take on tasks are called mercenaries of the new era. The Poisonous Scorpion Mercenary Group is this kind of mercenary organization. They usually only take on big cases, and they will completely defeat the target as soon as they take action. Their methods are very ruthless. In the virtual game world
notorious.
Currently, all the members of the Scorpion Mercenary Group are wanted by the government. The Central Intelligence Brain has even defined high-level personnel as terrorists and has used the power of execution. As long as their identities are exposed, the 'Finger of God' will be directly used to destroy the body.
"Are they very powerful?" Jasmine asked.
"I heard that there are some abilities that are not too great, but they have a bad reputation and do not leave any room for error." Sun Ran explained.
Charlie listened and nodded slightly. Shure Virtual Company had conducted several selections before, and the people who came were not very reliable. This time, a decent assistant finally came.
Sun Ran turned to Charlie again: "Can you tell me about the Divine Command Ring again?"
Charlie then told an allusion to the world of dragons: "In the creation myth, the supreme god Shure created the world in six days. He created light, darkness, water, fire, wind, and earth from nothingness, and then he was born.
World. The God of Command Ring is the ring worn by Shure when he created the world. Only by obtaining it can you gain the complete highest authority and control the life and death of the world with just one thought."
In other words, the saboteurs this time want to directly destroy the world, and they are really ruthless!
Jasmine was puzzled: "I don't understand why the game company wants to keep this ring. Isn't this asking for trouble?"
Charlie couldn't explain this clearly, but Sun Ran knew it.
This is not because the game company wants to keep it, but because it cannot destroy the ring at all. This is a common flaw in the virtual world.
It's just a legend that Shure created the world while wearing the Ring of Command, but the truth is not like that.
These creation artifacts do not belong to the Creation God. They are the data left over from the creation of the world. In layman's terms, they are some scraps left after the creation of the world.
The creation artifact contains valuable data about the original state of the world. If you obtain it, you can deduce the core parameters of the world and gain supreme authority.
This is true not only of the dragon world, but also of the earth. The data left behind by Pangu after the creation of the world is called the Jade Disk of Creation, which is very precious and has great power.
Sun Ran had obtained the jade plate of creation, so he became the great master of creation that no one could match.
But this thing is the core secret of the game company, and it is difficult to explain clearly, so Sun Ran said in confusion: "Don't worry about this, just think that the game company is stupid. The question now is: how can we stop the Dragon King's conspiracy?
.”
This is the real problem.
The Dragon King is a fourth-level creature with too high authority. It is very difficult to destroy it using mortal means. The most reliable way at present is to activate Thunder God's Punishment.
But God's Punishment has obvious flaws, and the other party has many younger brothers to help. It's really difficult to do it just by the three of them.
Instead of killing the Dragon King, it is better to find the Ring of Command first.
Sun Ran looked at Charlie: "You have been here for half a year. Do you know the approximate location of the creation artifact?"
"No. These things are scattered randomly. The game company doesn't know about it. They are looking for it everywhere." Charlie frowned.
One characteristic of the creation artifact is uncontrolled random changes. No one knows what it looks like before seeing it?
Any virtual world contains an unimaginably huge amount of data. In such a huge amount of data, if you want to find a piece of special data that does not know what characteristics it has, even the first game company will be worried about gray hair.
It's not much easier than killing the Dragon King.
Sun Ran sighed, it seemed that he had to show off his skills again.
His greatest skill is to find things. Back then, he found all the jade plates of creation on the earth by himself, and then he became the master of saints, and no one dared to disobey them.
"In this case, we can only find the artifact."
"How to find it?" Charlie felt like he had a splitting headache. He had been staying here for half a year, and what he wanted to find most was the Ring of Command. However, after all this time, he still had no clue and made little progress.
Sun Ran smiled and asked: "The creation allusion you just mentioned, was it told to you by the game company? Or is it a local myth in the virtual world?"
"Native Mythology."
"Then that's right." Sun Ran reasoned: "Since the existence of this kind of artifact is recorded in world legends, it means that there are very likely players who have seen it, or even someone who has obtained this kind of artifact and used it.
Extract part of the power of the artifact and establish some well-known achievements, so that it can be praised by others. Knowing this, then we can find clues about the artifact from allusions in the world and records in ancient books, and then follow the clues,
Search along the way.”
Charlie slapped his forehead hard and said painfully: "I have thought of what you said. But there are so many books like this, and they are so vast that it is really hard to find them."
This kind of thing can only be screened by the human brain, and dull intelligence will not play much role.
Sun Ran shook his head and sorted out the mess: "From the information we have obtained, the structure of this world is not complicated. The upper class mainly consists of three categories: nobles, mages, and religious people. Among the three, the nobles are the first.
Not to mention, both religions and mages value history. However, the former likes to distort facts to praise the gods they believe in, and the recorded history is not very reliable. Mages are known as truth seekers and have the most respect for historical truth. We want to find out the truth.
Information of sufficient value can only be obtained from the mage class."
At the end, Sun Ran looked at Charlie: "So, we just need to go to the oldest mage academy in the world to look for it."
Charlie's eyes lit up: "The summer palace on the peak of Agas is the oldest mage academy in the dragon world. There have been more than a dozen great mages in history, and the current great mage is also there."
Archmage is the honorific title of the mage leader. The owner masters at least one third-level spell and also masters the mage artifact "Shur's Staff".
This staff was given as a special gift by Shure Virtual Company to the game's VIP player, the mage, in the early days. It has been inherited from generation to generation and has existed for nearly ten thousand years, almost as long as the Dragon World.
It has level four authority. Any spell it inspires will be greatly enhanced in power, and the spell will become instantaneous!
Whether it's Destroyer or Order, it's normal for spells to be cast instantly. As long as the spells you buy with credits, they can be cast instantly.
However, the spells of the indigenous people are incomplete versions and will be restricted by the rules of world balance. For ordinary players to release spells, they either need to recite lengthy incantations or need time to channel the power of spells. In short, they are all kinds of troubles.
Instant spells are magical skills like bugs. Naturally, the Staff of Shur is a powerful magic staff with no solution.
Sun Ran smiled: "I heard that every great mage's knowledge is as profound as the sea. If we go to visit him, we will definitely gain something."
