After some consideration, the last dragonborn decided to accept Anvis's invitation.
Isn't it just to become an NPC's follower? In order to hide the mission, what does this little thing mean?
[System prompt: You have become Anvis’ follower.]
"Great, what's your name?"
When asked this question, Avis's expression was a little subtle.
He actually remembered this ID. In his previous life, he was a professional mage player who was famous for his cool moves. He was nicknamed "Blue-Eyed Dragonborn" and was said to be the former captain of White Light Esports.
I just didn't expect that his previous character names were so outrageous.
"I……"
Regarding this very normal question, the elf was suddenly speechless, and he began to regret that he had not followed the system's advice.
"Laboratory Dragonborn? Are you an escaped slave from a certain spellcaster's laboratory?"
But what he didn't expect was that the pink-haired girl suddenly frowned and said his character's name.
"Or do you actually have no name?"
The aristocratic young man in front of him also shook his head, and looked at him sympathetically with his clear blue eyes. The pity in his eyes was so obvious that the elf couldn't help but feel angry.
In the ears of Anvis and Erica, the elf did not pause, but directly said his name.
But what shocked the noble boy was that in his eyes, the elf's lips just opened, and they didn't match the words he heard!
"Then, let's call you Rivers."
[System prompt: Anvis changed your name to [Rivers]]
Avis turned to Erica.
"I remember you kept a short spear in your ring, right? Take one out and give it to me."
The girl strangely took out a short spear and handed it to Anvis. Anvis took the spear and handed it to the elf in front of him who was stunned by the system prompt.
"Okay, now comes your first task. Come here and polish my spear——
If you polish it to my satisfaction, I will reward you with this spear."
[System prompt: You have triggered the task ‘Polish’]
[Anything Level: E]
[Task introduction: Don’t tell me you have to wipe it all night. 】
[Task requirement: Continuously wipe the spear until Anvis is satisfied]
[Reward: 1000 experience points, black steel spear]
What the hell kind of mission is this?
The last dragonborn took the short spear expressionlessly, greeting the plot developer cordially in his heart.
Forget it, considering that this is a sophisticated piece of equipment, I have to be patient...
………
The game props in "Mysterious Era" are ranked according to quality from low to high: inferior, ordinary, excellent, magic, master, handed down, and epic.
A sophisticated weapon is already a very good piece of equipment in the early stages of the game.
After polishing the spear for two hours, Anvis finally expressed satisfaction with the elf's work, gave him the spear, and then gave him another task.
[Cleaning drainage ditches]
[Task requirement: Bring back the right ears of 100 drainage ditch rats to prove your bravery]
[Task period: five days]
[Reward: 20,000 experience points]
Looking at the retreating figure of the green-haired elf, Erica's expression was a little complicated. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't say it due to her identity.
"Wondering why I do this?"
Seeing the curiosity in the pink eyes of his little maid, Avis smiled a little narrowly,
"secret."
No longer paying attention to Erica, whose eyes became helpless, Avis stopped and stood quietly, analyzing the information obtained from this trial, his eyes deep.
He can indeed use various items as rewards and issue tasks to players. This behavior is essentially the same as recruiting other aborigines, except that players have an extra visual panel.
The only difference is that players can receive experience rewards from each mission, and the reward range seems to be related to the difficulty of the mission.
For his current situation, players are a good help.
The vast majority of players are of the Chaos camp, and profit comes first, which is exactly the advantage of his camp.
Moreover, most of these players who have obtained the qualifications for internal testing will become the bosses and trendsetters in the player group in the future.
Their actions and choices can often have an impact on the entire player group.
All you need to do is guide them, tie them onto your own chariot with benefits, and give them a sense of camp identity.
Then when their own camp is in crisis in the future, they will naturally do their best to defend their own interests.
Anvis made an agreement with the last dragonborn. If the elf proves his bravery to him and returns here in five days, he can receive the next task.
He still has his own things to do, and he can't always stay here as a mission NPC.
Anvis has already thought about what he wants the elves to do next.
With the 100-fold experience buff from the deleted closed beta, five days is enough for him to reach level 20 and become a qualified tool man, just in time to be thrown into a caravan as a trainee guard.
In the early stages of the game, following the caravan is almost the only way for players to go to other towns, which coincides with the needs of beta players to open maps.
The destination of the caravan this time is the Imperial Capital. It will pass through many large and small cities along the way, and there will also be a series of systematic training tasks, which can be quickly upgraded without fear of the elves not accepting it.
Although the caravan was assigned to his name by Duke Carrot, Anvis only received the caravan itself. The high-level family guards who protected the caravan were actually temporarily loaned to him by the family.
His current move to recruit players can be completely explained by the reason of cultivating his own team.
Through the elf's game panel, Anvis also learned the current time in the 'real world'.
The first day of the closed beta was exactly three days after he traveled through time——
After seeing off the elves, the master and servant headed to the caravan garrison in Kallas City.
It was a wide area near the West City Gate, where a large number of caravans from afar were stationed to rest and replenish supplies.
They brought rare trade goods from all over the continent to Kalras, such as silk fabrics and handmade cashmere carpets from Partimea, gemstone jewelry and exquisite snuff bottles from the desert capital, ancient stone carvings and handicrafts excavated from ancient ruins cities, etc...
…
These bulk commodities will be sold to the local chamber of commerce. They are the favorite commodities of the local upper class and nobles, and are very in demand. As long as they are successfully transported to Kallas, they can be sold for a crazy high price!
At the same time, caravan members will also sell some rare commodities privately to make extra money for themselves.
This is the unspoken rule that everyone agrees to, and the caravan leader just turns a blind eye to it.
All merchants who understand this will send people to stay here, so that when new caravans arrive, they can rush to buy the private goods of these caravan members as soon as possible.
Those are all real first-hand good things!
Anvis received news early that a caravan from the Federation of Distant Kingdoms would arrive in Kallas City today.
As the uncrowned king of the North, directly related to the Olivendi family, the treatment is naturally different from that of ordinary merchants. The family's manpower has already cleared the place in advance so that Anvis can prioritize the selection of goods.
The caravan also received a notice that a big shot was coming to purchase an item. Everyone rushed to put out all the goods, praying to the gods and the moon in the hope that Anvis would take a fancy to their items.
The family messenger who notified the caravan has issued an announcement: No matter what Avis chooses, the Olivendi family will buy it at ten times the original price!
As he looked at it, Anvis's eyes were attracted by an exquisite silver cage.
There was a blue-gray kitten in the cage, which was staring at him with a pair of big bright blue-green eyes. Its two round white little paws restlessly scratched the cage, which was very cute.
