A rusty iron sword was stuck in the soil. The right half of the sword was weathered and covered by snow, but the golden purple flower logo could still be seen on the hilt, if we remember correctly.
, that seems to be the emblem of the Silvermoon City Alliance Kingdom.
A man was sitting under a coniferous pine tree, with half of his armor hanging diagonally on his body, and a huge cloak covering his head. He lay leaning there, and his long black hair fell down around his shoulders. This gave me my first impression.
It’s just that this is an NPC, and it’s a female NPC!
"It must be a scene where the mission is waiting to be touched..."
I said something in the affirmative, and Xin Yu and Lu Xuehan suddenly became excited and said, "Then hurry up and pick it up. The team should be able to pick it up, right?"
"As long as you are in a team, you can take on any mission."
After I finished speaking, I walked up, squatted down and leaned in front of the warrior. I was about to stretch out my hand to see if she was breathless, but then she moved and slowly took away her cloak, revealing a face that was firm and firm.
Come on with a pretty face.
"Who are you?"
She looked at me coldly, and as she waved her right hand, the big sword was already in her hand.
Xinyu immediately pulled my arm nervously and asked nervously: "What does she want to do?"
I panicked for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, I realized that it was actually very safe. If this NPC was really a hostile force, he wouldn't know how to talk, and he would have been beaten to death a long time ago.
I hurriedly reassured: "Don't be nervous, we are adventurers from Silver Moon City, we just want to come over to see if you need help..."
The NPC beauty stared at me cautiously and said in a deep voice: "Are you really a traveler from Silver Moon City?"
"Yes, you can see my mark..."
I showed the Silvermoon City Alliance emblem on my arm and deliberately covered up part of the Golden Dawn. Who knows if this woman would be disgusted with the Golden Dawn, just to be on the safe side.
The NPC looked at the badge doubtfully, and then said: "Well, luckily you are here. I thought I wouldn't be able to survive a few days, but I didn't expect that I would be able to see living people come here..."
I took the opportunity to ask: "What happened?"
The beauty gave a bitter smile and said in a weak voice: "I am Nana, the adjutant of the Royal Guards of the Silver Moon King's Palace. I came here half a month ago to trace the whereabouts of the great hermit master of the kingdom, but I did not expect that I would encounter those terrible things here.
Ice trolls, their speed is so fast that I was hit by the venom on their claws without even reacting. These cold poisons are slowly eroding my body. I need you to do something for me.
…”
Isn't it a suicide note?
I secretly prayed in my heart that it would be a pity for such a beautiful female NPC to die just after meeting her for the first time. She is the deputy captain of the Palace Guards at level 87. If I save her this time, I might be able to save her in the future.
Can use her.
Seeing that I didn't reply immediately, Nana sighed and said: "Forget it, it's not easy for you to come here. How can I expect you to help me eliminate those terrible creatures... Now, they are too terrifying.
, I’m afraid there are not many people in the entire kingdom who can deal with them, let alone you inexperienced adventurers from other worlds..."
Nana's words are not unreasonable. As far as I know, most of the NPCs in Silvermoon City are currently level 80 elites. Basically, they come here alone to challenge these frost trolls, and only one of them dies. However, the level of NPCs varies.
They grow together with the level growth of mainstream players. In the future, if everyone reaches level 100, I am afraid that all NPCs in Silver Moon City will have to undergo a major overhaul to become elite NPCs above level 130.
"Is it difficult to take on this task?" Xinyu lowered her head and asked me. Her long hair was dangling around my neck, and the tickling feeling was very warm.
I shook my head, continued to look at Nana, and said: "Give us a chance, we want to help you, and we also want to prove our abilities. Isn't our goal to come out of the Silvermoon City Adventurer's Guild?
Do you want to train yourself?"
Sure enough, my words doubled Nana's favorability towards me, and she actually smiled happily like a melting iceberg: "Okay, but be careful."
She glanced at her legs, stretched out her hand and pulled open the cloak covering them. She saw a deep wound with bones visible on it. The flesh and blood around the wound turned dark gray, which was a sign of poisoning.
Xin Yu and Lu Xuehan quickly covered their mouths. After all, they couldn't fully accept this bloody scene, especially since the injured person was such a gentle and beautiful female warrior.
"As you can see, my injury was very serious. It almost made me lose the courage to live. I can no longer move. Even talking takes a lot of energy. Moreover, I haven't eaten for many days.
, just relying on its own energy to keep supporting..."
After saying this, Nana coughed violently.
I looked back at Xin Yu in confusion, and she said, "Ask her what she wants to eat..."
Just when I was about to ask, Nana pointed to the hill not far away and said: "Behind the hill is a small open space. There are many plateau elk there. Please go hunt one first and make it a mature meal to satisfy my hunger...
…”
"Ding~!"
System prompt: Do you accept Nana's request?
There is no doubt that we all clicked yes, and Nana also leaned weakly under the tree after giving out the task, closing her eyes and panting slightly, as if to calm down the fatigue caused by talking so much just now.
Xinyu held me with one hand and Lu Xuehan with the other and left eagerly. It wasn't until she reached the open space that she said, "Hurry up. A beautiful woman is about to die of hunger. We need to hurry up."
Lu Xuehan nodded and said, "I know, I don't think Xin Yu cares about people~"
Xinyu smiled: "Of course, sister, when did I stop caring about others?"
Not far away, several plateau elk were wandering there, eating green grass leisurely.
Xinyu walked over, and just as he was about to set up his bow, he was spotted by the elk. After a panicked escape, there was nothing in front of us.
Xinyu was very disappointed and looked back at me: "What should I do? It seems that I can't get meat at all!"
I shook my head helplessly and said, "Don't move yet. There should be something over there. I'll sneak over and take a look!"
"I forgot that you also have this sneaky skill~"
Xinyu's words left me speechless. Stealth is just a strategy and has nothing to do with sneaking. Besides, I rarely use stealth anymore. I usually just rush forward and speak with a big blade.
After sneaking, I walked around a small forest. As expected, a group of elk did not disappoint me and stayed there to drink water.
I was also very nervous as I approached step by step. These elk are basically level 80 monsters that do not actively attack, but tend to run wild when frightened. I hope my level can shorten the distance between them and me as much as possible.
We were almost there, but at this time, almost all the elk raised their heads and pricked up their ears. Then, they started running wildly again. This time, I didn't hesitate. I immediately broke out of the stealth state and locked the nearest elk with a charge.
, after the wind, the light of the Frozen Slash exploded, and after a series of combos and heavy blows, the level 80 monster fell down all of a sudden. Probably due to the system settings, nothing exploded, and,
The body did not completely disappear on the ground.
At this time, Lu Xuehan and Xin Yu had already ran over, but when they saw the elk carcass on the ground, they were dumbfounded: "Well, how do you get the meat off?"
I felt that I had to do this myself, so I put away the blood-red sword, took out a blue dagger that I had shot yesterday from the package, and equipped it with it. I squatted down and lifted one of the elk's legs, but I found that I didn't know where to start from.
Where is the best place to cut? The only discovery from this action is that the elk is a male.
Xin Yu and Lu Xuehan also squatted down with great interest and watched me working with great interest. Xin Yu also said: "Otherwise, you can just stab me. I see you don't have much experience in butchering."
She was right. I had killed a chicken since I was a child, and I tied the two paws of the chicken and put it on the chopping board. I closed my eyes and cut the greedy kitten next to the chopping board with a knife, half crippled.
The second knife hit the chicken correctly, but only cut off half of the chicken's head, causing the chicken to jump painfully in the yard of the community for half an hour before it stopped.
This time, the elk was dead. Fortunately, the knife could be used more accurately.
The deer skin was cut open with a knife, revealing the bright red muscles underneath. What surprised me was that Xin Yu and Lu Xuehan did not reject this scene of slaughtering animals at all, but looked at it with great pleasure.
I pulled a piece of fur and smoothly peeled it off along the tissue layer, leaving only a part of the deer leg that I could hold with my hands. Then I used a dagger to cut directly from the root of the deer leg to separate the entire leg from the deer.
, then stood up with the bloody food and said: "Let's go, don't let Nana starve, then we won't get any mission rewards."
Xin Yu asked doubtfully: "Should we only take one deer leg? Will it not be enough for Nana?"
I glared and said, "NND, a whole deer leg is not enough to eat, do you think Nana is a pig?"
Xin Yu glanced at me aggrievedly and said nothing, stepping aside to tease Lu Xuehan.
A few minutes later, when I brought the deer leg to Nana, I realized that the deer leg was not a mission item. The mission item asked for roasted deer leg, not fresh meat with the skin on.
"Then make a fire quickly!" Xin Yu said helplessly.
I was even more helpless and asked her: "Where can I find fire on this ice peak? Do I need to rely on fire to light it?"
As a result, Xinyu looked at me charmingly and said, "Okay, how do you want to do it?"
I was even more speechless, patted her small shoulder and said: "We will study this matter at home at night. The game has some influence on weathering..."
"Would you like to rub two branches together to make a fire?" Lu Xuehan said with a smile.
Friction generates fire. I have only heard of this. I have never tried friction to generate heat, and I am also confused about the friction speed. It stands to reason that the ultimate frequency and speed that the human body can achieve are already in AV.
Yes, it's very strange. Why haven't I seen them suddenly catch fire in their lower body while doing something?
Practice has proven that science is sometimes inaccurate...
Lu Xuehan naturally didn't know what I was thinking. If she knew, she would definitely say that I was too wretched. Xin Yu was also thinking hard, but I think with her wisdom, she would never come up with any good ideas for a while.
After thinking for a long time, I suddenly slapped my thigh: "NND, how could I forget that the ready-made little fire magician is here, Xuehan, don't you have the fire skill? Come on, put one as a kind of fire, Xinyu
Go pick up some dry branches!"
Xinyu retorted: "Why don't you go?"
"I'm going to carry the deer leg..."
"..."
Xin Yu was speechless. When she came over with a pile of firewood, Lu Xuehan waved and released a large flame. Although it didn't burn for long, it was enough to ignite the firewood that Xin Yu picked up.
I immediately tied the deer leg to a thicker branch, built a simple frame, and then sent the deer leg up.
Xin Yu and Lu Xuehan were surprised by everything I did, and asked in surprise: "Good guy, I didn't expect you to have such skills. When we go out to have a BBQ buffet (abbreviation for barbecue) one day, you should really be there in reality
Chuuya shows off his skills!"
I smiled: "Okay, as long as you two have this request, I will definitely satisfy it!"
Although I have barbecued before, I have never grilled a whole leg like this. Firstly, I am afraid that the roast will not be good, and secondly, I am reluctant to spend money to buy a whole leg of lamb. In the game, although everything is easier to do
Some, but unfortunately, there is no cumin and seasonings, so the baked goods must be very fishy and basically inedible.
However, now it's just to complete the task. This NPC beauty Nana, who is almost hungry, shouldn't dislike my third-rate barbecue skills.
As expected, when I roasted the deer legs, Nana had already sat up. I quickly cut a fist-sized piece of meat with a dagger and handed it over. Nana accepted it gratefully, and then started eating it in small bites.
, although she was very hungry, she still had some sense and knew that it was wrong to swallow hard.
But when Nana ate the second piece of deer leg meat, Xinyu found a container from somewhere and filled it with water. These were exactly what Nana needed.
Finally, Nana got to the point after eating enough. She pointed to her wound and said: "Although I have never been poisoned by this kind of poison, I once learned about it from a book on potion formulas. This kind of poison only has the Ice Troll Claw Sting."
The venom itself can only be completely detoxified by the potion. I have the rest of the potions here, but I can't get a certain amount of the ice troll's claw sting, so I haven't been able to escape. Are you willing to help me collect these precious
Medicinal materials? Your enemies will be those very terrifying creatures!"
The mission is finally here!
"Ding~!"
System prompt: Your team has accepted the task [Collect the Ice Troll’s Claws].
Mission content: Collect 200 ice troll claw thorns and give them to the injured Nana officer.
Nana became quiet again, sitting there motionless, as if she was digesting, but this is also the NPC's usual behavior after handing over the task. Even if you harass her again at this time, she will not say anything substantial to you.
Already.
I looked at the time and saw that we were online at 6 o'clock. It's almost 7 o'clock now. It was almost a waste of an hour. I just completed the prelude to a task. Moreover, the level of this task was only purple. I probably took on too many orange tasks.
That's why I thought this. If the location were changed, most players would probably be crazy with joy after receiving the purple mission. But unfortunately, usually these people can't get here at all, and the wild monsters on the road can take care of them.
"Okay, let's start the mission!" I stood up, equipped the Blood Red Sword and said, "I'm trying to go to bed before 10 o'clock. I'm so sleepy. Please help me get all the mission items as soon as possible!"
Lu Xuehan was a little worried: "How about you go to bed first? There is no time limit for this mission anyway. Besides, the mission items are obtained in the squad mode. You go to bed now. Xinyu and I will call you after we have obtained enough mission items.
Let’s get up and hand in the task together.”
I shook my head: "That won't work. You two can't fight without a human shield in front of me. Besides, how can I safely leave you two in this ice and snow?"
Xinyu smiled happily: "Are we really that important to you?"
I didn’t even want to say: “Of course, for me right now, you are the most important, and everyone else will step back...”
In fact, I was afraid that they would mention Murong Shanshan at this time, so I could only say that Murong Shanshan was as important as them. Fortunately, Xin Yu and Lu Xuehan did not disappoint me. They giggled and urged me to start collecting mission items.
.
Since the attack output of the frost trolls is really abnormal, even our super powerful team of three people did not dare to be careless. We could only lure them one by one to kill them. Under the double healing output of Lu Xuehan and Hongye, I even
Even when he accidentally resisted two monsters, he was safe and sound, not to mention Xinyu's powerful concussive shot to help him. After the second turn, the concussive shot stuns for a longer time, and he can even defeat ordinary monsters.
The stun lasts for about 10 seconds, which makes killing everyone very enjoyable. Often a monster will be dizzy from the beginning to the end when it is lured over, and it will not last more than 10 seconds when it dies.
I feel more and more exhausted. Fortunately, the task items are collected very quickly. In just half an hour, I have collected more than 40 ice troll claws. If I continue at this rate, it will take another two hours at most.
