He has a rich resume with several betrayal experiences, and he knows that the hidden mole may be able to produce better results.
So as an arcane knight, he disappeared from the border of the Underdark with a second-level invisibility spell, and went straight to the rear of the players.
His position is chaotic, no one cares about him, and no one will hit him.
He knew that Bobby wouldn't fight from beginning to end on the front line.
Since he originally wanted to kill Poppy, he naturally had to have a good understanding. As far as he knew, Poppy had never been in the habit of continuing to fight in such a big scene.
His action was more out of interest than killing the enemy.
I just came up to play for a while because my hands were itchy, and after a while I retreated to the back of the field.
Yes, my hands are itchy.
Over time, almost every player will be able to discover that every character in this game has his or her true side - joy, anger, sorrow, love and hatred.
There was no emotion like anger or sorrow in Bobby's body, and he couldn't see any killing intent when he occasionally took action. Even when he took action against the sworn enemies in the eyes of some aborigines, it was purely out of situational needs, without any intention of killing him.
What personal emotions.
An NPC scholar looking for fun?
It was precisely because of this that I thought I could find him and come up with my plan.
If you put it on other NPCs who are jealous of evil, once they find that there are tadpoles of illithids on you, they will definitely send you directly to the resurrection point.
As for his identity as actually being from the Chaos camp... that's even more annoying.
Who can say who is an enemy or a friend? Being double-dealing is even more unpalatable.
Among the NPCs he knew, only Poppy could consider issues purely rationally and... also had the strength and planning that made him afraid to act haphazardly.
Yes, he also knew what he was like. If there wasn't a big mountain to hold him down, he might have some evil thoughts in the process of executing the plan.
Do NPCs generally distrust themselves?
Fortunately, I don't trust myself very much either.
And once he started cooperating with Bobby, at least in the current incident, he would not dare to make any half-hearted actions.
Looking at all the previous cases, this Bobby either has more information than anyone else, or he is good at prophecies and other magical things.
This is Poppy in the eyes of the outrageous.
It's also good to cooperate honestly.
And sure enough, after only a few minutes of fighting, the thunder and Cui Yan were no longer moving on the field.
Those who were staring closely at Bobby noticed his exit immediately and quietly touched him.
In order to prevent misunderstanding, he shouted to Li Wen from a distance: "Sir Bobby!"
Li Wen, who was still reminiscing about the thrill of the battle just now, looked over instantly and only found a... figure that was a little familiar and yet a little strange.
Familiar because I have definitely seen it before, and the mage’s memory is unmistakable.
And unfamiliarity is because we are really not familiar with each other and have not even interacted with each other before.
After searching for about a second, Li Wen found the origin of the other party from his memory - Qin was one of the two players who helped the black-robed men of the Shadow Sect on the night when Jianfeng City was besieged.
And one of those two players was the key figure who later betrayed the Shadow Sect and led the victorious general to find their lair.
What does it mean to find yourself alone right now?
While Li Wen was thinking, he came closer with a flattering smile on his face.
"Lord Poppy..."
After getting closer, Li Wen saw at a glance the breastplate that the other party was wearing, with a surface like amber and flowing red light.
Armor made from Demonic Heart Ore.
Moreover... there seems to be an aura of chaos on his body, changing invisibly.
Chaos camp?
"What's up?"
Li Wen asked softly.
"I am the person in charge of this monster invasion within the Underdark."
He introduced himself ridiculously.
For NPCs, you must be the first to get them. Only by letting them hear the news that they are interested in as soon as possible will they be able to pay attention to you. Otherwise, they will usually just say "go away".
After he finished speaking, he looked at Li Wen a little nervously, not knowing how Poppy in front of him would react.
His understanding of Li Wen was limited to observations and guesses. In fact, he had to discuss matters as they happened.
Hearing the words of the player in front of him, Li Wen kept his expression calm, but in his heart he thought of Ah Zhi and Seine River from before.
It seems that he is also a player who was planted with tadpoles by the illithids and was forced to change his camp. However, it seems that he has no intention of taking action against other players. This should be due to the Demonic Heart Mine Armor on his body.
So he nodded, "Well...it seems that this treasure armor on your body has made you remember where your glory belongs. Just be willing to come back."
Accept it so easily?
As expected, it’s my Poppy!
He raised his hands and said, "Sir! Those illithids are far less discerning than you, sir. They all still believe in me. Do you need to make any plans to wipe out the lair of those illithids in one fell swoop? I can help you."
lead the way."
According to his outrageous judgment, even if he does not include the entire group of illithids that he has never seen that may exist, the murlocs and some creatures in the underdark that they rule alone are not something that these players can deal with at the moment.
But it doesn't matter, Mr. Bobby has great hands and eyes. Can't he still contact the big bosses of the aboriginal people?
If both sides work together and lead the way, they will definitely achieve brilliant results.
And for someone who has personally contributed to such a big event, he must have some decent reward, right?
Sometimes if you want to do a large task, you can't just wait passively, you have to take the initiative.
Even if the reward is mediocre, being able to personally facilitate all of this and destroy a large dark force in the game is just bragging rights.
From now on, when I meet everyone, I will be the "Illithid Terminator", how nice it sounds.
Li Wen frowned slightly when he heard this.
Directly enter the Underdark and attack the Yellow Dragon?
This plan... doesn't quite fit.
The interior of the Underdark has a suppressive effect on normal professionals. Both players and aborigines will have their abilities compromised after entering.
Even if the illithid's tadpoles can be ignored, and the illithid's psionic spells can be exempted to a certain extent, these are just their means of controlling other creatures and their own attacks. In actual combat, they encounter so many creatures subordinate to the illithid.
As for the ethnic group, the players in the away game may not be happy.
The wave of monster invasion in front of them requires players to rely on the resurrection point to withstand it. If they really rush in, they may not even burp after eating.
There is no way, the environment in the Underdark is inherently unsuitable for normal players.
As for bringing the aborigines of the native world together... forget it, there is no point in making unnecessary sacrifices.
Whose life is not life?
It is still cost-effective to build a city.
Build the Great Wall!
It can give players something to do, develop new gameplay, and give them a stable leveling ground.
Why do you have to fight for life and death? Isn't it good to build a wall to entertain yourself?
Hmm... But Li Wen felt that it was quite feasible to send an elite team of players to gather knowledge about the illithids.
"No need for the time being. Fighting alone deep into the Dark Territory will be thankless and thankless. There is no need for it. It's good that everyone is in peace."
"But those illithids don't think so. They are absorbing all the creatures in the Underdark, intending to rely on them to occupy the entire world. By the time they complete their recruitment, I'm afraid the world will be in danger."
"It's good that you have this intention, but it doesn't matter."
As Li Wen spoke, he turned back to look at the almost completed city behind him.
"As long as the construction of this city is completed, more passionate adventurers like you will come to this world, and our power will be equally impressive."
There are millions of professionals, all of whom are close to level three and even fearless of death. This is a terrifying force.
Even if not everyone wants to come to this different world, even half of them, Li Wen feels that guarding the border is simple.
It's outrageous to think so, of course he knows the player's power.
So, can’t you fool this Bobby?
hateful!
But after finally having such a special identity, don’t you feel a little bit unwilling to be able to trigger any tasks?
And he is already willing to talk to himself so much. It would be a shame if he couldn't lead to some special tasks.
"Then... I wonder if your Excellency needs me to do anything else?"
He asked very cautiously.
"Hmm... maybe you can lead a small team to make a surprise attack? I need to know more about them."
Don't miss the opportunity to harvest the wool. When it comes to understanding psychic powers, who knows better than these illithids themselves? If you can get their own understanding of psychic powers, you will make a lot of money.
Moreover, according to Aletta's feedback, the elves and dwarves are also preparing to send a joint elite team to conduct an in-depth investigation.
No matter who you are, it is more reliable to understand the information yourself than to listen to others' reports.
Maybe we can do something together?
When he heard Li Wen's words, his eyes lit up.
Just have a mission!
As expected, you have to take the initiative if you want to do the task.
"No problem, sir! The road is too dark! I will lead the way!"
"Then you should pay attention to yourself first and wait here. I will go and gather some people to take a look."
There are many attacking beasts, and most of them have strong vitality.
The tug-of-war between them and the players will probably continue for quite some time. During this time, elves and dwarves can be found to quickly pull up the joint elite team.
As for the players, Li Wen was not worried at all.
Their mobility is incredible. As long as they are given a mission, they can leave at once.
Aletta, who was contacted by Li Wen, also responded quickly to find her mother. After telling Li Wen's plan, she immediately made a decision and quickly summoned the established team members.
Execution is amazingly fast.
In the end, a twenty-person joint elite team of elves and dwarves, and Li Wen himself stood on the side of the battlefield, thinking silently about the first twenty lucky people attracted by the release of the task who already had the Demonic Heart Mine Armor, a total of
Forty people, under the leadership of Weibo, drove into the interior of the Dark Territory.
Li Wenzai had a detecting spell attached to his body. Just like the mage lady before, he wanted to see with his own eyes what the illithid's lair looked like.
Also making this move with him were Aletta and Larika, elves that Li Wen was familiar with.
Almost every elven councilor who can use fifth-level spells has a scrying spell attached to a member of the elite team.
A group of people squatted in the meeting hall of the main elf city as if they were waiting to watch a short movie.
…
The interior of the Underdark remains as dark and gloomy as ever, and it is difficult to reach the depths of darkness that are too far away.
It seems that because all the beasts in this direction were swept into the tide of attacks on the human city, the team of forty people did not encounter any setbacks during their actions.
When there are more people, the magic heart ore armor will definitely not have that good effect on the creatures in the underdark. However, even so, their actions appear to be quiet.
However, this silence makes people even more frightened.
With the parties involved and everyone in the discussion hall on tenterhooks, the team marched in silence for about five hours.
From nervousness at the beginning, to numbness later.
Fortunately, as the game progressed, one or two occasional battles prevented those players from feeling too bored.
On the contrary, it is quite exciting to sneak into this kind of atmosphere.
In the political hall, Li Wen was so bored that he started learning from a four-ring spell scroll.
The elf councilors did not waste their time. Everyone gathered together with some picture albums and discussed something happily.
It was also the first time that Li Wen knew that among the materials he had brought to this world, the books and scrolls about spells or paths were not the favorites of these elves. Instead, they were the travel notes and novels requested by Aletta.
Or books that recorded geographical anecdotes about some of the cultural landscapes of the Gaia continent, etc., caused a wave of waves throughout the elven kingdom.
It has been reprinted in an unknown number of thousands of volumes, and was originally placed in the Elf Treasure House to be treasured as a treasure.
Finally, with the leader's outrageous reminder, everyone suddenly became nervous again.
"arrive."
The illithid's lair is filled with the wet smell of the seaside. It is not an entire huge building, but many functional earthen bags.
Nestled in the dark shadows, it looks a little funny...
Just like a tour guide, he began to introduce the respective functions of those sections in the voice of their team's channel.
"That's the guard room. You have to be careful not to attract their attention. Inside is an armed team of kuo-toa enslaved by the illithid...
This is the cleaning room. Illithids must first remove all clothing and equipment from creatures that are about to have their brains ripped off, and clean them thoroughly to prevent any parasites or dangers.
This is the brain ventricle, which can preserve the brains that have been stripped away by them. Those brains are still alive and soaked in a magical liquid. I often see illithids doing some research here.
It was the conversion chamber, where promising test subjects were kept and their physical development was distorted by the illithid's attempts to distort their physical development. Most creatures who went through this process became twisted, crippled wretches, but
I have also seen a few individuals become stronger and tougher than before.
That’s the tadpole room…”
The voice seemed to ring directly in the hearts of everyone including Li Wen, Aletta and others.
Fifth-Level Spell - Larry's Mind Link (Prophecy) (Ritual): You establish a mind link with up to eight willing creatures within the casting range. During the duration of the spell, the minds of each connected creature are connected to those of all other creatures.
The magic creature is connected. The magic value is 2
Creatures with 100% or lower are not affected by this spell. Before the spell ends, all subject creatures can communicate with other subject creatures through mind connections, regardless of whether they have the same language. This communication method can span any distance
When scrying is mounted, this five-ring ritual spell is also mounted.
The outrageous introduction is more of a pure observation on the surface. He is not an illithid himself, so naturally he cannot understand too detailed content.
"Their habits are somewhat similar to those of the kuo-toa people they enslaved. My own guess is that they ate too many kuo-toa people's brains.
Illithids seem to be able to absorb any memory and knowledge stored in the brains they eat, so that the behaviors and habits of the illithids I know are similar to those of the murlocs.
And I'm sure the illithids here are by no means all of their species.
Although they have some kind of mental communication type of communication, for practice I occasionally hear them imitating the language of other creatures when communicating, and these messages are what I heard only at those times."
After looking for a long time and not seeing anything he cared about, Li Wen asked softly: "Don't they have an individual called a mastermind?"
"Mastermind?"
He shook his head and responded mentally: "I haven't heard them mention it, and I haven't seen any other obviously strange individuals."
"Is this so..."
While talking, Tanzhi saw a figure with four tentacles flying under the dark curtain, which caused an elf councilor to exclaim softly.
"Behind you!"
The group of people quickly looked over and found a standard illithid standing not far away, staring blankly at them.
…
In the eyes of Illithid No. 1, a dozen bright pale white balls floated in the air in front of him.
