Chapter 428: The Forsaken Realm of Gods (17) (1st + 2nd update) [VIP]

"Excuse me," Guan Hongyan stopped what she was doing and said in a faint voice, "Do you two really want to hug each other in this environment?"

Even if it's a necromancer or a bone dragon, isn't it a bit too advanced for them to ignore everything when the fire is about to burn down the whole store?

"I don't think Hector's current outfit will cause him to have stye," Zhao Yinglai said quietly, "Since you're here, Dermis, why don't you put out the fire first?"

Although they have temporarily booked the clothing store, it is now visibly that the fire is getting bigger and bigger.

The clothing store was filled with all kinds of fabrics, all of which were flammable, and the fire spread very quickly.

Fortunately, everyone considered that persuading Hector to wear women's clothes...whether by force or words, might be difficult, so they chose a more remote clothing store, otherwise the neighbors on both sides would probably rush over to help them put out the fire.

Bai Jinshu had his eyes covered by Huai Jiamu, and could only wave his hand based on his perception. The restless fire elements in the surrounding air instantly calmed down, and the elements that had materialized into flames gradually extinguished. The space that was a sea of ​​fire just now returned to calm after a few seconds, and there was no trace of flame burning anymore.

Hector was halfway through chanting the spell when he felt the elements that had just gathered in his hands gradually dissipate and could no longer be mobilized at all.

Several people who had been waiting for this moment rushed forward and finally pinned the unlucky adventurer Hector to the spot.

The mages on the barrage didn't care at all about Hector's gradually losing his soul:

[Did German just stop the flow of elements? 】

【What the hell is German...】

[Short form of Delmis Giant? ]

[It stops the flow of elements, but it is rare to use this method to put out fires. Most of the time it is used in high-precision mage experiments and the manufacture of high-purity alchemical supplies. ]

【Big Boss, tell me! 】

[If you have studied alchemy or have been to the Grand Mage Tower with sufficient funds, you should have come across this before, but you just didn't pay attention. ]

[When manufacturing high-purity single-element alchemical supplies, in order to ensure the quality of the products, the flow of other elements in the production room will be suspended to avoid mixing with other impurities. However, this is usually carved into a magic circle and buried in the basement of the production room. Because the magic power consumed and the required affinity are too high, a lot of magic materials need to be thrown in to build one. ]

[Oh, I see. That's why the alchemical items produced by larger wizard towers are of better quality.]

[I understand, too. Only a big shot can do this. We can only watch. ]

[You can really do the above. Our Mage Tower is currently researching portable alchemy magic pattern attachment equipment. Are you interested in investing? ]

【Those who solicit investment and advertise should be dragged out. 】

[So no one really cares that Hector is forced to wear women's clothes? ]

[No one cares. As long as you can help me make some progress in my research, I'll run naked around the Mage Tower.]

For most mages, the world they live in is different from that of ordinary people, and naturally they do not have the same moral standards and world views as ordinary people.

Although Hector's fireballs were loud, they were put out in time, and most of the clothes in the store were not burned. Before thinking about how to compensate, the first thing he needed to consider was what to wear now.

"I think I should choose something shiny and golden," White E muttered as he flipped through the books. "Don't players like to buy clothes that glitter? The glitterier, the better."

"Look for something more exaggerated," Zhao Yinglai touched his chin, "isn't our goal to spread the news that 'a player has returned to play the game' throughout the continent? In this case, the more high-profile the better, right?"

"Do you want to get your hair styled?" Guan Hongyan shifted her gaze to Hector's head. "I remember reading the information yesterday that you can buy hairstyles by paying for this online game. The top-end colorful hairstyle costs 150,000. Hector, should we dye your hair a colorful purple? Although we can't do it by changing the code, we can make a small deal with the GM and get you some paid suits!"

"By the way, Dermis," Zhao Ying came over, "can you add special effects to your clothes? The more shimmery the better!"

Bai Jinshu waved his hand, and all the clothes in the store sparkled with dazzling light!

"Thank you!" Zhao Yinglai clenched his fist, "Let me see if there is any clothes that are suitable for Xiao He..."

This has become Xiao He.

Hector trembled and hugged himself, sobbing and looking at his teacher: "Teacher..."

This group of people is so scary.

Compared to his teammates who forced him to wear a skirt and dye his hair bright purple, he actually felt that being captured as an adventurer to save the world had become acceptable.

"You performed the fireball spell just now quite well," his teacher even said the word "quite well", "did you learn the waterball spell last night?"

"I learned... I learned it." Hector didn't know why the teacher asked him this question at this time. He nodded and answered truthfully, "I also memorized the spells of the small whirlwind and the earth shield..."

These four are the wizard's basic spells of wind, fire, water and earth. His memory is pretty good. While he was worrying about what to name them last night, he also practiced them by the way.

However, since [Grudge is Heavier than Ghost] only taught him the spell technique of Fireball, Fireball is now the one he is best at.

He is not yet familiar with the remaining three skills.

"Well, just memorize it," Bai Jinshu nodded, "It seems that this method is very effective for practicing spells."

As Hector gradually felt a bad premonition, his teacher raised his hand, and all the fire elements in the air instantly fell into a dormant state, and then he looked up at himself.

"I have stopped all the fire elements from flowing," Bai Jinshu nodded to his other teammates, and 26 degrees spoke extremely cold words, "Next, let's practice water ball, whirlwind and earth shield."

Hector: !!!

He watched his teacher and his mistress walk out.

The three girls looked at each other, with a strange light in their eyes.

Hector took a shaky step back.

"Hector," the puppet from Zhaoying rubbed his hands and took a step forward, "Do you think you can run away now?"

"I..." Hector subconsciously recited the fireball spell that he was most familiar with.

The fire elements did not gather as usual, and he then remembered what his teacher said: "The flow of all fire elements has been stopped."

"Come and see if you want this palace-style one, or this fantasy-style one, or if you're interested in a high-slit one..." White Moth rummaged through a pile of clothes, "Fuck, there's a maid costume too. You guys really know how to have fun in the world. Would you wear a maid costume?"

Hector: "Teacher, help me - Teacher - you and your wife will grow old together, teacher -"

"Dermis won't come to save you even if you scream your throat out," Guan Hongyan flipped through the information, "Oh, there are still three sets of the 150,000 suits in this game. Hector, do you want curly hair, long straight hair, or a bun... Yun Guang!"

She quickly noticed Hector’s little move: “Hold him!”

Bai Jinshu walked towards the door. Behind him, the clothing store suddenly became chaotic again.

The three girls were choosing dresses and hairstyles while asking Hector which one he wanted, while the remaining male team members silently held down the struggling hapless adventurer.

Then he silently met Hector's tearful gaze.

Although you are pitiful but...

But it’s better to learn the remaining three spells as soon as possible.

Hector struggled and a small water ball the size of a pistachio burst out from his palm.

It seems that I am still a long way from completing my apprenticeship.

If there was a wizard specializing in alchemy passing by here at this time, he might be able to see that all the fire elements in this small clothing store had been forcibly suspended, and the purity level was far higher than any alchemy production room on the current continent that tried to suspend the flow of fire elements.

The person who did all this stood at the door, thoughtfully using terrifying means to forcibly suppress the flow of fire elements.

It turns out that Hector had never been able to learn magic before. Was it because he applied pressure in the wrong direction?

*

The threat of the "puppet creature" seems to be less serious than wearing women's clothes. In just one morning, the moral integrity of the small town youth Hector disappeared along with the gorgeous puffy skirt on his body, and his progress in spell practice also advanced by leaps and bounds.

He lost his soul, but became stronger.

When the exploration team members were coming out of the clothing store with Hector, who had lost his soul, they happened to meet a player who had logged into the game to look for them.

"This is..." [Grudge Heavier Than Ghost] took a step back hesitantly and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar n.pc in front of him.

Is this a player?

Or is this some new n.pc?

This clothing special effect looks like a new fashion that might have been released after he quit the game, but the basic model seems to be the kind of skirt that noble female n.pcs often wear in the game.

The hairstyle looks a bit like 15w white hair, but for some reason it is now purple, and it has the same bright light effect.

The rest of him was a little unrecognizable.

A player standing next to him had his eyes light up: "Wow, 150,000 white hair, the jewelry is the second anniversary Valentine's Day limited time cumulative charge limited edition, the skirt on the body is the reward for the top 100 output list in the Malonoko Guard War, and I remember that the shoes and socks should be the achievement equipment of the tailor profession. You have to make a thousand sets of top-level critical strike equipment to get it. It's just that this special effect is a bit unfamiliar... Buddy, where did you get the special effect?"

“Oh my god,” [Grudge is heavier than a ghost] muttered, “You recognize them all?”

"Yes," the player next to him nodded, "I still have them all. You said I'm a collector for nothing."

"Besides, I started playing A-game several years later than you guys. Is it strange that I recognize these?" She muttered, looking forward with burning eyes, "Where did you get these special effects? How come I have never seen this set of special effects before? Is it from dungeons or pvp, or is it a costume that drops from dungeons or is it sold?"

[Grudge is heavier than ghosts] also followed her and looked at the player.

Is there actually a player who has a more complete collection of appearances than this collector next to me?

The "player" showed a smile that looked like he was about to cry: "Brother..."

[The resentment is heavier than ghosts]:!

[Grudge is heavier than ghosts]: "Hector?"

Isn’t this figure the first-level apprentice in the Mage Tower yesterday?

I don't know why, but the other party has inexplicably become level 10, and his clothes have also changed completely...

No, it’s not just a matter of changing a set of clothes!

This is women's clothing!

Why would a male adventurer like you wear women's clothes?

"Why are you wearing women's clothes?" [The resentment is heavier than a ghost] blurted out.

Hector: ...

Hector fell silent for a few seconds: "Because I..."

"Because he didn't practice water ball technique and whirlwind earth shield," Bai Jinshu interrupted coldly, "so I sent him to the training ground to train for a while. Is there any problem?"

[The resentment is heavier than that of ghosts]: ...To be honest, he has more problems.

Why do you wear women's clothes when practicing spells in the practice field? What is the connection between the two? Also, can you NPCs also wear player clothes? How can you also wear achievement suits and leaderboard suits?

And... uh...

[Grudge is heavier than ghosts] He hesitated to speak: "So Hector, you are dressed like this because you haven't learned the last three spells?"

Hector nodded heavily.

If he had learned these skills earlier, he could have used magic to escape from that clothing store!

[The resentment is heavier than the ghost] Suddenly filled with guilt.

"Yes... I'm sorry," he looked at Hector guiltily, "Don't worry, I will be online every day in the future, and I will teach you spells every day. If I knew yesterday that you couldn't learn to wear women's clothes, I would have taught you more."

Hector nodded soullessly: "Okay, thank you."

Even if he doesn't have to wear this outfit in the future, his inner moral integrity has already gone with the wind.

He felt that he would never have the face to go back and see his sister again.

Mom, your son said he was going to be an adventurer, but he was actually wearing women's clothes in the big city...

The two players had no idea of ​​the complex psychological activities of the NPC in front of them.

"Oh, let me introduce you," [Heavier Resentment Than Ghosts] nudged the player next to him. "This is my friend, the blacksmith who can make weapons for the city lord that I mentioned yesterday. His name is [A Man Grows on His Liver]."

[A person grows on the liver] waves to everyone in a friendly manner: "Hello, hello."

Guan Hongyan and the other three girls were whispering behind the crowd.

"The top three in the PVP competition have limited hair accessories," Zhao Yinglai said in a low voice while looking at it. "The hair is dropped in the 25-man group with a drop rate of 0.003%. Only those with the highest equipment points can get it, and trading is also restricted."

"The clothes and skirt seem to be the achievement sets for winning 100 consecutive games in the stronghold battle," Bai Moth quickly flipped through the information in his hand, "I can't tell the shoes, but they look like the reward for signing in for 2,000 days."

"The weapon is the current version's graduation set with full attributes and entries," Guan Hongyan blinked, "and also upgraded the secondary attributes of explosive damage, shield breaking and damage bonus. It cost more than 100,000 yuan to upgrade all the secondary attributes, and that doesn't even include the money I lost when I gambled on the attributes."

The three of them looked at each other.

"Oh my god, he's a hard worker, he's lucky, he's good at fighting, and he also has a collecting habit," White Eth sighed softly, "This guy actually came back to the game just to make equipment for us? Could the game manufacturer have imagined that someone would actually collect all the items that can be obtained in the game?"

The name is exactly what it means, it's like a person growing on the liver.

The three looked forward in shock.

In front, [A Person Grows on the Liver] looked at Hector with burning eyes: "Where did you get the special effects on you!"

She is a collector, and her hobby in playing all games is to collect all the obtainable equipment items in the game. After all her friends left "Breath of Slenkmed", she persisted in the game for several years until she collected the last piece of equipment and achieved the full collection achievement, then she left the game completely.

Logically speaking, when she played A, the game was already extremely unpopular. In the game's main city, which was once the busiest, there were only a few old players scattered around. No matter whether it was queueing, playing attack and defense, or doing activity tasks, it was always the same few hundred people coming and going. In the later stages, everyone knew each other's IDs and gradually developed from in-game friends to offline friends.

By the time [a person grows on his liver] quits the game, there will be only a few of these hundreds of people left, and the game will have long been unpopular. Logically speaking, it is impossible for the manufacturer to release a new special effect out of nowhere after everyone has quit the game, right?

So where do these special effects on this guy come from!

Hector hesitated for a while: "My teacher...did it?"

He wasn't quite sure how it came about, but this special effect was created by just a wave of Dermis's hand.

So it should be considered as his teacher's work, right?

"His teacher is the favored n.pc I mentioned," [Heavier Resentment Than Ghost] whispered, "In the beginning, it was because Xiao Wang triggered this favor that he called me back to the game."

Before coming here, he naturally told his friends about the adventure he and Wang Wenhua had encountered, including how they were unable to enter the city after their bound items were taken away by n.pc, the mage tower was robbed, and all the professional instructors disappeared...

Also, in order to get the whereabouts of the Grand Mage from the Lord of Besser, they needed a magic weapon.

Among all the people he knew, among all the players who had reached the maximum level of the life profession [Blacksmith], only [A Person with a Growth on the Liver] was familiar with him, so he was called back.

"I understand," [A Person Grows on His Liver] completely forgot the original reason why he was taught here, and looked at Hector excitedly, "Who is your teacher!"

Hector looked towards Dermis weakly.

The members of the exploration team also slowly looked at [A Person Growing on the Liver].

This player looks very powerful. She asked Hector who his mentor was. What did she want to do?

“Teacher!” [Growing a Person on the Liver] threw himself at him shamelessly, “Does this special effect only apply to my worship as your teacher?”

Exploration team members: ...

Barrage: ...

The mages let out a sharp explosion:

[No!!! I don’t agree——]

[How come anyone can become a disciple of the master!!! Forget about passers-by! Forget about players who originally played mages! Why is the blacksmith here too! 】

[I can't accept it! I can't accept it! ]

"No," Bai Jinshu said coldly, "You have to travel across the continent with us to open the gate to the Kingdom of God and save the world."

[A person grows on his liver] replied immediately: "The final reward of the Favor Quest Chain, right? No problem!"

【The resentment is heavier than ghosts】:?

Wait, it's okay now that you know what's going on?

He thinks it’s a big problem.

This favor quest is a bit weird. It's been such a long time and no quest prompt has popped up. The n.pc in charge of the quest not only has extremely high combat power but also destroyed the mage's professional quest location. It doesn't seem normal no matter how you look at it, right?

"Wait a minute..." He opened his mouth to stop her.

"I said, no problem," [A Person Grows on the Liver] said with a firm look, "I didn't collect this special effect. I saw it, I wanted it, and I got it."

[The resentment is heavier than ghosts]:!

Wait a minute!

Are you a beagle?

*

[A Person Grows on the Liver] He was extremely active. Before anyone could say anything, he broke into a blacksmith shop, bought the blacksmith's hot smelting furnace, and started making smelting products on the spot.

"You haven't played for so long. Do you still remember the process of creating life professions in this game?" [Grudge Heavier than Ghosts] asked weakly while squatting beside him.

There is a reason why not many people practice the life professions in Breath of Slenkmed. As the first holographic game, the process of making weapons in the life professions here is also based on the real world. For example, [Blacksmith], players who practice this production profession really need to select materials, smelt, burn materials, and forge...

Moreover, the final equipment quality is actually positively correlated with the quality of the weapons created. This setting was criticized a lot at the beginning.

We are all here to experience the Western fantasy world, who is here to make iron?

So basically, except for those players who are really not used to fighting, life players do not account for a high proportion of the total players. Most of the life players also play simple professions such as [Tailor] and [Pharmacist] which are easy to learn and basically do not require much effort. Hardcore professions such as [Blacksmith] are basically not played by anyone.

The guy with a growth on his liver who was working as a forger: "I don't remember."

She has been playing for at least ten years.

"But isn't Lord Besser a level 30 NPC?" She said casually while hitting him randomly. "If I hit him with a max-level piece of equipment, he will definitely think it's a divine weapon."

The level is there. A level 150 crappy weapon, no matter how crappy it is, is still better than a level 30, top-quality purple weapon, right?

"That's true..." [A Man Grows on His Liver] muttered, watching her foolishly create a sword that was too painful to look at, and silently said, "Then should we go find the city lord now?"

The lord of Besse lives in the city center and is very easy to find.

As players who have completed the main storyline, they have the right to enter and exit, and the remaining NPCs, since they are there to offer their weapons, can naturally enter as well.

With Hector carrying this junk-quality, max-level greatsword made by players, everyone silently walked through the crowd and headed towards the City Lord's Mansion.

Upon hearing that someone came to offer weapons, the city lord quickly let them in.

After learning that the other party wanted to exchange weapons for information about the whereabouts of the Grand Mage, the city lord thought for a while and looked at the two players in front of him: "Let me take a look at the weapons first."

He needs to think about it.

Hector walked to the front with a big sword.

After being forced to wear women's clothes and learn three spells, walking through the crowd in the downtown area wearing these clothes, and slowly walking under the "incomprehensible but respectful" gazes of the guards, the last string in his heart broke.

He now felt that he could accept anything.

The city lord looked at the greatsword in his hand. The full-level garbage-quality greatsword was indeed much better than the level 30 purple equipment in his inventory. Just before he was about to agree, he suddenly saw the rapier hanging on Hector's waist.

"Wait a moment," the city lord stopped looking, "I want this sword, lady."

Hector felt that there were still things he could not accept.

For example, being called Ms.

"I'm a man." He squeezed out a sentence from his throat.

"Okay," the city lord was stunned for a moment, not understanding but respectfully changing his words, "I want this sword, sir."

"No," Bai Jinshu crossed his arms, "Anything will do except that one."

"【A person grows on the liver】." He slowly called out the player's name.

"Stand by at any time, mentor," [A Person Grows on His Liver] took out the iron smelting furnace he carried in his backpack in the other-dimensional space in the city lord's reception room, "Whatever you want, I will make it for you on the spot."

City Lord:?

The author has something to say:

This was a trick used to kidnap children in 1960, and it's still applicable today. The city lord was handling official business at home when a group of adventurers suddenly broke in. The adventurer took out a glowing special effect weapon and said that if they wanted the weapon, they should tell me the news about the great magician. The city lord got the weapon, and [a man growing on his liver] asked the city lord if he wanted more. The city lord said he wanted more. [a man growing on his liver] took out another special effect weapon and asked the city lord if he wanted more. The city lord said he wanted more. [a man growing on his liver] took out another special effect weapon and asked the city lord if he wanted more. The city lord said he wanted more. ….avi

If you don't know this joke, you can go to station B and search for [Auntie took out a pancake], wasting the precious two minutes and thirty-three seconds of your life.
