Chapter 497: The Whereabouts of the Sword of the Chosen King

"Well... As a professional player, you should see the deeper meaning behind this, Kitty."

Standing under a street lamp, the human mage Nyarlathotep put down the newspaper in his hand, pushed his monocle, and spoke a little helplessly.

"First, according to the analysis report of the plot team, there was no record of the activities of magical beasts like the girl slime in this world. Now that they have appeared, they can only be a brand new product of the secret method.

Then, their life structure has a very high value.

If one could use them as samples to deduce the secret method of life refining used by the transformers, even if only part of it could be deduced, its value would be enough to offset 50,000 contribution points.

Secondly, you should have some understanding of monsters like slimes. Their reproduction method is division and proliferation. If this slime girl also has the characteristics of division and proliferation, then we can also try to breed some slime girls to sell. "

Naya explained the advantages of Slime Girl in detail. "Really? What's the result?"

Tiramisu's suspicious eyes drifted to Naya's side, where a light green elf slime girl was looking around curiously, making puffing sounds from time to time, and her turning heads was extremely high.

"I don't know if it's their characteristics or some other reason, but they can't continue to divide. The gel will lose all its activity if it's separated from the body. If it splits into large pieces, it will endanger their lives."

Ignoring the kitten's gaze, Naya touched the Slime Girl's head and continued to watch the target's movements under the envious gazes of nearby players.

This time, the storyline team of Baiguang Esports discovered a very important hidden storyline mission, the importance of which brought the entire team together again for a rare occasion.

As Bai Guang's specially hired foreign aid player, the Last Dragonborn was also pulled back and rejoined the team.

It is said that this operation involves the whereabouts of the legendary epic artifact [Sword of the Chosen King] in the empire's legend.

The Sword of the King-Chosen, also known as the Starfall Sword, was originally the sword of successive emperors of the ancient magic empire, and its forger is unknown. Emperor Gloria is the penultimate and most famous wielder of the Sword of the King-Chosen.

Among the people of the empire, the legend of Emperor Gloria and the Sword of the King Choosing is still circulating, and there is more than one version. Countless children in the empire grew up listening to these stories.

In the most widely circulated version of the legend, the Sword of the Chosen King has its own will and will select its holder on its own. Only those who possess the "qualifications of a king" can truly unleash its power.

When it was in the hands of Emperor Gloria, the power it exerted was even enough to cut down the stars in the night sky.

But when the Great Emperor stepped down from the throne of the Empire and passed the Star Crown and the Sword of the King to Gloria II, Gloria II himself was unable to exert its power and could only use it as a symbol of imperial power and wear it when attending important occasions.

Then, one night hundreds of years later, the palace was attacked by a mysterious strongman. In the chaos, the Sword of the Chosen King, which was carefully guarded in the treasury, was taken away by the enemy and has been missing ever since.

Even though the royal family later arranged for ninth-order extreme powerhouses to conduct a secret search and mobilized countless supplies including the prophecy treasure, they still found nothing in the end.

"Attention, the target has taken action, let's follow."

Under the intentional or unintentional attention of several people, after a team of city guards passed by, the peddler carrying a large basket looked around and suddenly turned into a nearby alley.

Seeing this, everyone stopped playing around and started to get serious.

Connected to the vision of several gray skylarks flying high in the sky, the half-elf ranger [Bunny Princess] shared the peddler's movement trajectory to the team map in real time to prevent everyone from getting lost.

"The other party stopped in a dead end, seemingly waiting for something... Wait, there is an unknown person in the alley, and the two of them seem to be conducting some kind of transaction!"

At this moment, the previously silent half-elf ranger suddenly spoke.

"Don't alert the enemy for now. Let's continue surveillance. Dragonborn, please and Kitty follow the mysterious man. It would be best if you can find out his identity. If you lose him, just come back."

After thinking about it, Naya made a decision immediately.

As a former team captain, the ability of the last dragonborn is unquestionable. And the opponent is likely to meet other targets, so it is not advisable to send too many people.

"good."

After a brief agreement, the Last Dragonborn immediately set off, activated an invisibility amulet that blocked his own breath, and took a shortcut with Tiramisu to the vicinity of the target location.

After a moment, the hawker and another professional wearing an ordinary dark blue robe and without any identifiable feature information appeared in the field of vision of the two people observing the props.

Under the secret observation of the two men, the peddler talked to the man in blue robe for a few words, took out a small box from the basket and handed it to the other party, then pretended nothing had happened and left.

But the figure in the blue robe did not leave, but continued to stand there motionless.

"Is he waiting for something, or have we been discovered?"

Tiramisu's fluffy cat ears twitched, a little confused.

"Wait, something's wrong."

Suddenly, the last dragonborn frowned, and a faint green glow lit up in his left eye.

The next moment, he made a quick gesture, and an invisible wizard's hand flew out, grabbed a crossbow that Tiramisu had left in the nearby area, aimed at the man in blue robe, and pulled the trigger.

The sharp black crossbow arrow instantly hit the blue-robed man's body, but it seemed to penetrate the air without encountering any obstacles. At the same time, a dark green ray instantly shot out in the opposite direction of the attack, directly decomposing the hand crossbow into dust.

"It's the Phantom. He's gone. Let's go."

Sensing the spreading magical fluctuations, the Last Dragonborn frowned.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Using powerful magic in a big city would easily attract guards. If the guards in the capital discovered that they were near the source of the magic fluctuations, they would probably get into unnecessary trouble.

"Dragonborn, Kitty, pay attention, a team of guards is coming!"

In the team channel, Tutuji's slightly anxious voice sounded. At the same time, several rapidly approaching red dots appeared on the map.

Without saying anything, the Last Dragonborn and Tiramisu quickly fled in the opposite direction, narrowly passing by the guards.

“Huhuhu—it was really dangerous. I almost fell into the hands of those guards.”

Tiramisu ran to another alley in the lower city in one breath, patted his chest lightly, looked at the elf beside him who seemed normal, and his breathing quickened slightly.

"Also, what happened to your eyes just now?"

"You mean this? This is a special power I obtained from an altar in a secret ruin. I'm still trying to figure out what its specific effects are."

Looking at the curious kitten beside him, the Last Dragonborn touched his left eye, which was glowing with a faint blue light, and explained.

"We've lost track of them. What should we do now? Should we go back?"

"No need. When they were talking just now, the special ability of my left eye had already marked the breath of that person. I can sense the direction of his real body, which is not far from here."

"That's really convenient... But now, there are only two of us here~"

Tiramisu looked in the direction the elf indicated with some surprise, suddenly bent his tail, poked the elf's forearm, and his tone suddenly became somewhat seductive.

"What do you want to do?"

The elf's eyebrows twitched, and he looked at Tiramisu speechlessly.

Do the half-cats in this game have estrus? "Look, there's a hole in the wall over there, and the target happens to be in that direction. How about I go through that hole and take a shortcut?"

The black-eyed cat-eared girl did not answer directly, but pointed mysteriously to a hole in the wall of the alley, with a strange expectation in her tone.

"If you get stuck in a hole, I'll help you put your picture on the wall."

The elf glanced in the direction of the kitten's finger and held his forehead helplessly.
