Bai Xiaowen questioned the rules of the spiritual world, but received no response.
Bai Xiaowen thought for a while, then turned to the blue-haired girl Bonita and said: "Hey, you can barely be considered a knight. You should understand the principle of repaying a favor, right?"
Bonita opened her blue eyes wide: "You, how could you do this... It is the duty of a knight to save a damsel in distress, how can you ask for reward like this..."
Bai Xiaowen snorted: "Come on, I'm not a knight. According to what you just said, I am a 'despicable' necromancer..."
Bai Xiaowen specially added an accent to the word despicable.
Bonita's face turned red, but fortunately it was dark in the mine and she couldn't see clearly. She said anxiously: "But, I don't have money..."
There is a door.
Bai Xiaowen became more energetic, and he finally figured out some of the rules of rewards for side quests in the spiritual world. For tasks like this marked with "unknown rewards", after completion, it is up to the awakened person to gain the benefits.
For example, in the world of the Three Kingdoms, when Bai Xiaowen and Liu Bei met Liu Bei for the first time, they proposed Guan Yu and Zhao Yun's advice as a reward, but they were rejected. After that, Bai Xiaowen proposed a book of interpretation of spells as a reward.
, and permission was obtained.
Of course, a big boss like Liu Bei is so sophisticated and knows how to reward people without Bai Xiaowen taking the initiative to mention it. As for this dull-witted Bonita, if Bai Xiaowen didn't mention it, she might just pass it by in a daze. In addition to this side mission,
Giving Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi some combat experience is equivalent to doing it in vain...
In fact, Bai Xiaowen did it easily, it only took a little time and no effort.
In fact, according to the normal operation of the rules of the spirit world, Bai Xiaowen and the two should first sneak into the northern mine to rescue Bonita, and then Bonita would offer to fight side by side with Bai Xiaowen and defeat the bandit leader Ian. Bonita's participation in the war is an act in itself.
The reward for the side mission [Rescue].
And from the clues he has learned so far, Bai Xiaowen has a vague judgment in his heart. I'm afraid Ian is not a boss that must be killed. After all, if it were other awakened ones, even if they were one or two levels higher, they might not be able to compete with two level 7s.
Kill Ian in the presence of the Strength Elite Bandit Guard.
What's more, Ian blew the bone whistle immediately, and dozens of elite bandits from the entire mine rushed over to support him. This difficulty simply exceeded the level of an S-class elite mission, and was too high.
If Bai Xiaowen hadn't used the Kusanagi sword, a powerful weapon, and killed several of Ian's henchmen with two consecutive shots of the Kusanagi sword, and scared off other bandits, it would be hard to say who would win and who would lose in the end.
If Bonita is rescued and the three of them face Ian, the trainee knight Bonita may be able to directly convince Ian through verbal escape...at least, it will make the battle less difficult.
But Bai Xiaowen didn't take the usual path. After forcibly killing Ian, he turned around and rescued Bonita... In this way, Bonita had no reward to give Bai Xiaowen.
These speculations flashed in Bai Xiaowen's head for 0.2 seconds and passed. Ian is dead, so there is no point in talking about these now.
Seeing Bonita trying to be cute, Bai Xiaowen refused to be fooled and said decisively: "If you don't have money, you can use treasures as collateral, such as your weapons and equipment..."
Bonita's eyes widened: "The knight's sword is more important than life, even the robber didn't take my sword away! You, you are not more important than the robber..."
"Stop, stop," Bai Xiaowen walked close to the entrance of the cave. He could already see the backs of several robbers hurriedly escaping from the cave with small bags on their backs. He turned around and had a showdown with Bonita, "If you don't have enough gold coins,
, just leave your sword and armor...choose one, trainee knight."
Li Shuyi smoothed things over and said: "Xiao...Brother, Bonita is indeed very pitiful, and she does have no money. Taking away a knight's sword and armor is equivalent to taking away her life..."
Bonita huddled behind Li Shuyi and nodded desperately.
"I don't think it's better to let Miss Bonita stay with us temporarily... Next, we have to wipe out the bandits in the entire White Stone Territory. Miss Bonita can compensate by fighting..." Li Shuyi said.
Bai Xiaowen looked at Bonita and said with suspicion: "She doesn't seem to have any ability, otherwise how could she be caught by Ian."
Bonita said sharply: "Nonsense, nonsense! I am very powerful. Among the trainee knights who graduated this time, I have always been in the top ten..."
Bai Xiaowen curled his lips: "Okay, I will believe you for now. However, you have to save me at least once before we can be considered even. Otherwise, you will always owe me, this 'despicable necromancer', a life. Remember
Are you staying?"
Bonita pursed her lips: "I don't want to owe you my life. I will fight hard."
The spirit world rules prompt message sounded:
"Bernita, the Knight of Divine Grace, requests to join your territory. Do you agree?"
"Bonita, the Divine Grace Knight, has lowered her favorability towards you. The current favorability level is: Normal."
After Bai Xiaowen agreed to accept him, the number of troops on his lord page suddenly changed from 0 to 1, and he obtained Bonita's detailed information.
In addition to these basic information, detailed information also includes Bonita's combat specialties, as well as the attribute introduction of some main equipment (armor and weapons). These cannot be seen through the "Insight" talent.
What surprised Bai Xiaowen was that Bonita was actually a knight who was more of a spell caster. She had "advanced to level 5" light spells, and she was also quite good at melee combat, with level 4 combat and level 4 spells.
One-handed swordsmanship.
The three skills are very good. Among them, [Holy Hand] is a small skill with a short cooldown. It can be used as a damaging spell or a healing spell to restore health. It is flexible and versatile. [Saint Seal of Protection] can make an ally
Immune to physical attacks below priority level 6 for a short period of time, [Divine Grace Descends] is a ultimate move that can restore health to all allies and strengthen their armor!
"Big money..." Bai Xiaowen silently praised in his heart. Bonita, the Divine Grace Knight, is simply a powerful nanny, although her brain is not very good.
The three of them arrived outside the mine. At this time, the bandit camp was in chaos. Some bandits with nimble legs and feet had already fled, but most of the bandits were still busy packing their packages and planning to run away. The ones who were most afraid were the horsemen and cooks.
The blacksmiths and other servants are not like other bandits who can join the gang wherever they want, and they appear hesitant.
Over at the stables, a dozen elite bandits were fighting for it, each holding a horse and hurriedly jumping on it.
However, tragedy struck after only a few steps. There was a faint neigh, and the first horse fell to the ground. Some unknown substance flowed out from behind its buttocks. The elite bandit was also thrown into the mud.
It was as if a switch had been turned on, causing a chain reaction. The dozen or so horses following behind all fell to the ground, and the area around the stables was filled with a stench.
"How should we collect there are so many bandits?" Li Shuyi said in a low voice.
"Whether it's forcing good people into prostitution or persuading people to abandon evil and do good, it's nothing more than two methods, carrot and stick." Bai Xiao bra confidently led Li Shuyi all the way to the wooden door of the bandit camp and stood in front of it. "Killing the bandit leader Ian has already
It shows our force. Then we can lure them to gain, and that’s almost it..."
Having said this, Bai Xiaowen suddenly raised his voice, and a loud shout rang out over the messy camp:
"You good-for-nothing scum!"
…
The messy camp became quiet for a moment. Whether they were ordinary bandits packing their luggage, elite bandits studying horses, or bewildered bandit servants, they all raised their heads and looked in the direction of the sound.
.
There are a few elite bandits with bad tempers who have already touched the knife and plan to give this ungrateful guy some blood.
However, many people fell into fear when they saw Bai Xiaowen's hooded wizard robe (an illusion seen in the eyes of people in the spiritual world).
"Did you see it? It's this wizard. He killed Boss Ian."
"So fast? I originally thought that even if Boss Ian couldn't defeat him, he could still sustain it for a while."
"This wizard is so powerful that he can emit hellish flames with just a raise of his hand, burning both Galben and Idan to death! This kind of magic power is far beyond the reach of Boss Ian, and it is very easy to die.
normal……"
"What should we do? Now that he has blocked the gate of the village, he probably doesn't want to let us go..."
None of the elite bandits had any intention of coming forward to stir up trouble. The ordinary bandits heard word of mouth from others and knew about Bai Xiaowen's "terrible strength", so they didn't dare to come forward.
Many people took aim at the low camp fence. A fence of this height was basically useless to them.
It doesn't matter if the gate of the camp is blocked. There are only a few of you, but you can't block the entire camp wall. This is what many bandits have in mind.
After Bai Xiaowen got the head start, he began to introduce himself as a family member.
"I am the lord of White Rock Town, Baron Dio Skelboom! You bastards, scoundrels, guys who only deserve to rot in the cesspit, listen to me!"
"This time! I am representing the empire! I will destroy you!"
"Your leader, Ian, has been executed by me! Several stubborn guys tried to resist, but they were also burned to charcoal!"
"According to the laws of the empire, I should have hung up all you maggots to dry, but White Rock Town doesn't have that many flagpoles!"
"Now, I give you a chance to change your past...accept my adaptation and become my lord's personal guard! That's right, from a robber to a guard! From now on, you no longer have to live in this stinking cold cave.
in life!”
"Anyone who is willing to accept the adaptation, come here and kneel in front of me!"
Bai Xiaowen suddenly pulled out the heavy money box from the storage space and dumped out a large pile of gold coins with a crash.
A low cry sounded among the bandits, and there was even a slight sound of swallowing saliva.
Under the temptation of gold coins, Bai Xiaowen's voice added a touch of evil temptation, making it irresistible: "The first ten people who kneel down can get a reward of 10 gold coins. The people behind can only get 10 gold coins as a reward."
Take two pieces...and start choosing now. Don't make me take back this short-lived kindness!"
The sound of swallowing became louder.
One of the robbers boldly asked: "How do we know whether we should trust you? What if you fall out after we surrender?"
"Ant, your life is now in my hands. You have no right to argue!" Bai Xiaowen said grimly, "You despicable maggots are not worthy of me racking my brains to fabricate lies. I want to kill you just for the sake of it."
It’s as easy as moving your fingers!”
At this time, a tall and thin robber sneaked towards the fence, intending to climb over and escape. Behind him, there were several robbers eager to try.
"It seems that someone is challenging my patience."
Bai Xiaowen showed a sneer and suddenly activated [Deterrence]!
With Bai Xiaowen as the center, an awe-inspiring pressure spread. The bandits in the camp felt a bone-deep fear, and they couldn't even move a finger!
The two-star mutation skill deterrence is as effective as the overlord's domineering force, not to mention the bonus of Bai Xiaowen's lord status. The weaker bandit was directly frightened for nearly ten seconds.
As for the robber who was trying to climb the fence, his movements were frozen and he didn't even dare to move.
Bai Xiaowen raised his hand, raised his gun, and took aim calmly.
The deathly silence in the field was as suffocating as the seconds before shooting a condemned prisoner on an execution ground.
Bang!
The robber's eyebrows were splashed with blood, and he fell to the sky!
Bai Xiaowen put away the Desert Eagle and said leisurely: "Now, who else has objections to my words?"
In fact, Bai Xiaowen played a deception.
That was a level 6 bandit. Even though it was an ordinary template, his health points were over 150 points, and his armor was more than a dozen points. Even if Bai Xiaowen's Desert Eagle hit the key point between the eyebrows, the single damage would not reach 1/3.
If it has maximum health, it will not trigger an instant kill unless it triggers a critical hit. With the Desert Eagle's +4 special effect, headshots can kill even elite bandits in seconds.
However, Bai Xiaowen himself is not very agile and his critical hit rate is very low. And not long after he left the combat state, the cumulative critical hit rate of [Yamazaki Ryuji's Fighting Gloves] was only about 5%, making it impossible to achieve 100% critical hit.
The reason why he was able to kill the robber instantly was because of the Shadow Assassin's lurking + assassination package. However, Bai Xiaowen wanted to create the illusion of overwhelming the robbers with his strength, and he had to do it with just a few clicks on whose life he wanted to take! Therefore, the Shadow Assassin
It cannot be exposed.
At the same time that the robber fell to the ground, Bai Xiaowen used a spiritual link to control the shadow assassin and lay down simultaneously. The shadow assassin itself is an undead creature of the soul race, and is even more difficult to detect under the cover of night.
Bai Xiaowen's pretense was undoubtedly a great success. Stimulated by the gold coins, a bandit servant suddenly rushed forward and knelt down in front of Bai Xiaowen:
"Great Lord Dio, your humble servant Harvey swears allegiance to you!"
