Chapter 429: The Land Forsaken by God (18) (1st + 2nd update) [VIP]
City Lord: "Any weapon will do?"
Hector: Where did you get this from?
The two of them were shocked, one after the other.
"As long as it can be made by a blacksmith, it's fine," [A Man Grows on His Liver] lowered his head and tapped the stove for a long time before answering casually, "But the quality is not guaranteed."
She has almost forgotten how to play the life profession in this game.
With the precedent of "Breath of Slenkmed", most of the holographic online games that came out after it still retained the player's sense of participation, but all of them greatly simplified the casting process.
"Until I'm satisfied?" asked the city lord.
"Until you are satisfied." [A Person Growing on the Liver] nodded.
If he still can't make it, he can just go to the player trading market and buy a few that were originally put up by others.
"No," [A Person Grows on His Liver] muttered, "I'll have to go out and look for a tutorial later."
"A tutorial for the Blacksmith?" Grievances Worse Than Ghosts asked worriedly, "I remember there were very few players who practiced this at the time, and the only tutorial on the forum was the one you wrote yourself."
[A man grows on the liver] In addition to the excessive liver power, the tutorial post is extremely abstract, and it is a compliment to call it a heavenly book. After the game manufacturer did not behave properly, it was the last straw that broke the camel's back for players who tried to play [Blacksmith].
"Find a blacksmith," [A Man Grows on His Liver] said with a fist, "I'll go and learn from the scene. I must get this special effect."
[Grudge is heavier than ghosts]: ...The player who is addicted to collecting all the illustrated books is so terrifying.
He silently looked away and met the shocked gaze of his hapless junior brother.
"That stove..." Hector was speechless, "Where did you get it from?"
“This?” [Grudge Heavier Than Ghost] pointed slightly at the iron smelting furnace beside him.
Hector nodded.
[The grudge is heavier than the ghost] As it should be: "Backpack."
Can't a player's backpack hold anything as long as there is space?
After he said this, he realized something was wrong.
For NPCs, anything a player casually takes out of their backpack shouldn't cause any surprise.
Just like the city lord, when he sees the player take out a smelting furnace, his first reaction is what kind of weapon he wants, not where it came from.
[The resentment is heavier than the ghost] Suddenly I felt a guess flash through my mind.
Before this guess could take shape in his mind, Delmis, who was standing next to him with his arms crossed, said, "So can you tell us now? Where did the Grand Mage go? And the God of Light of the Church of the God of Light, the President of the Hunter Association, the Patriarch of the Thief Family..."
"I'm not sure about the last three..." The city lord was very generous after receiving the promise and answered directly, "I only know why the Grand Mage left."
"Why?" Guan Hongyan asked.
"He..." The city lord thought for a moment, "Before he left, he was looking for someone."
"I'm not sure who this person is," the city lord recalled with a frown, "but Lord Clement has been looking for this person since ten years ago. I only know one feature of this person."
Amid the sound of iron forging, the city lord said slowly and thoughtfully, "It's a purple-haired man, and he should be an adventurer."
*
"A purple-haired man, and an adventurer," Zhao Yinglai repeated the city lord's words while walking and frowning, nudging the white moth next to him with his elbow, "What do you think?"
"The rumors on the continent are related to the person the Grand Mage is looking for," White Moth said what everyone was guessing, and after a few seconds he added, "Is the Grand Mage's disappearance also related to the disappearance of the God of Light?"
This rumor that spread here inexplicably seemed to have formed a small closed loop all of a sudden.
The purple-haired adventurer is the person the Grand Mage is looking for, and according to rumors, this person can open the door to the Kingdom of God after traveling to all continents. The disappearance of the gods seems to be related to the disappearance of the God of Light. The God of Light and the Grand Mage are both professional mentors, and they disappeared together.
"The time doesn't match up," Yun Guang frowned. "According to the city lord, the Grand Mage has been looking for this purple-haired adventurer since ten years ago, but the God of Light suddenly disappeared seven years ago."
There is a gap of three years in between, and the timeline is off.
"Dermis," Xu Zichen looked at Dermis, "What do you think?"
"Hmm?" Delmis replied absentmindedly, "I don't know. If nothing works, I'll catch the God of Light and ask him when I open the gate to the Kingdom of God."
What does it mean to "Catch the God of Light and Ask Him"?
The exploration team members looked at each other and closed their eyes in despair.
It seems that you didn't listen to a word of the previous long analysis. You didn't investigate the rules at all, but directly grabbed the relevant people and interrogated them, is that right?
“Hector,” he suddenly turned to look at Hector, “You have learned four spells now?”
Hector suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart: “Yes… yes.”
"Start learning faster tomorrow," his instructor said, glancing at his tutu with a bad feeling. "This kind of practice is quite useful. I hope that by the time you open the gate to the Kingdom of God, you will be one percent as strong as I am."
"Hey, I found something great in the mall yesterday," Guan Hongyan suddenly said, "The Valentine's Day limited edition costume for the third anniversary of this game is actually a backless cheongsam, it's so pretty."
Hector:!
"Teacher, can I change the exercise? I will study hard and make progress every day!" He couldn't wait to speak.
"No," Bai Jinshu rejected coldly, "I find this way of practicing is good. When I return to the Mage Tower, those apprentices in my tower who can't learn no matter how hard they try can also try this method."
Now it's the turn of everyone else to "!"
Everyone mourned sincerely for the apprentices in the Delmis Mage Tower.
"Do you need me to provide you with drawings?" Zhao Yinglai and Guan Hongyan came over stealthily. "Come and add me as a friend. If you plan to use this trick on your students after you return to the foundation, I will send you drawings of women's clothing. We also have backless outfits, belly-baring outfits, tube-top outfits, and maid outfits..."
Bai Jinshu refused firmly: "No."
"I only have long-distance contact with my partner," he said firmly, "We keep in touch on the message board."
Then, in front of the entire organization, they passed around several GB of women's clothing drawings!
Lu Changfeng's pupils trembled.
Guan Hongyan: "Alright, call me when you need anything."
The three male members of the organization slowly moved away from her.
It’s really scary, Guan Hongyan.
You say every day that this organization is full of weirdos. Now you are finally going to join them. Are you going to become one of the weirdos?
"[A Person Grows on His Liver] was left in the City Lord's Mansion to forge iron," Xu Zichen quickly changed the subject, "Are we going to follow the plot now? Go through the continent according to the main storyline?"
"Hmm," Yun Guang nodded, thinking, "I remember the main plot was that after the adventurer got the certification from the Adventurer's Guild, he started to accept commissions around Besser City. After completing a large number of commissions and becoming famous, one day a noble lady came to him and asked him to help her find the weirdo who had been following him."
From this commission, the main storyline of the game's first expansion pack, the defense of Besse City, was completely kicked off. Following the strange man who was following the noble lady, the player discovered that someone was trying to attack the nobles in Besse City, and thus discovered an attack on Besse City.
At the end of the story, everyone crushed the conspiracy and protected the city of Besse. At the same time, because of their outstanding fighting skills, they came into the vision of the other three city lords and became famous adventurers in a small area, laying the foundation for the second expansion pack [Battle of Slenkmed].
No one would attack Besser City right now, for sure, but building a reputation around Besser City also fits in with everyone's second goal, which is to become a famous purple-haired hero on the continent, and finally travel to all continents to open the gate to the Kingdom of God.
"So the first step is..." Su Hao touched his chin.
"Go register with the Adventurer's Guild." White Moth snapped his fingers.
So we are back to the question that we all avoided this morning.
"Hector," Bai Jinshu slowly looked at his apprentice, "Have you thought of a new name?"
*
"Hello," Hector walked into the Adventurer's Guild in a shining puffy skirt, looking hopeless, and stood in front of the front desk of the Adventurer's Guild in full view of everyone, "I'm here to register for adventurer qualifications."
"Hello," the teller behind the counter was too busy to look up, and casually pointed to a pile of registration forms next to him, "Fill out the first one if you want to register as an adventurer, fill out the second if you want to transfer your Adventurer Club file, fill out the third if you want to apply for a rating assessment, and fill out the fourth if you want to change your membership information."
"I'm a registered adventurer. I'm here to transfer my profile and change my membership information," Hector silently handed over a piece of paper. "Is this okay?"
"Wait a moment for me to confirm," the teller put down the documents in his hand and looked up at the adventurer in front of him.
Then her pupils trembled.
"Uh..." The teller was shocked for a moment, "Are you... an adventurer from another big city?"
Isn't this outfit too weird?
Is this a new fad in the other three cities?
"No, I'm from Roseburg," Hector had gradually become numb to the shocking sight, "It's written on my profile."
"Oh, let me see..." the teller stammered, "Um, you are... a mage adventurer registered in Rossburg, and your race is human male...?"
"Male." Hector nodded.
The teller continued to read in shock: "This time you want to transfer the file and... change the name?"
"What do you want to change?" She looked up at the weird adventurer.
Hector: "How do you know that my teacher and his wife are in love?"
"Ah?" The teller behind the adventurer's counter didn't react. "What?"
Hector: "I said, I want to change my name to [How do you know that my teacher and his wife are very loving]."
Receptionist: "Really? I think we should not change it, Mr. Hector."
Isn't Hector Holt a good name? It sounds so normal.
The ID photo on this registration form also shows a very handsome young man.
The receptionist looked at the shy young man from small town with short purple hair in his ID photo, then looked up at the adventurer who was wearing a puffy palace skirt, had long purple hair that reached his waist, and had a numb face.
She took a slow breath.
What did the adventurer life do to this simple small town youth.
"Sir," she leaned forward and lowered her voice, "do you need legal assistance?"
"The Adventurer's Guild of Besai City is managed by a great god," she said with sympathy in her eyes, "If you encounter any difficulties in your life, you can ask us for help."
Hector: “My life has been filled with difficulties.”
Teller:?
Hector: "Don't ask, just change it, your great god will thank me."
Today is also a day to do good deeds and save more people from his teacher.
Teller: "Uh... um okay, if you insist sir."
She lowered her head silently and began to change the files.
At this moment, Hector heard a familiar devilish voice behind him: "Have you made the changes? Guan Hongyan and the others have already shown you which tasks to take."
He is his teacher.
Hector turned around immediately: “It’s being revised.”
Bai Jinshu nodded: "Hurry up."
Hector entered the Adventurer's Guild and changed his name, and the rest of the team naturally looked for suitable commissions for him on the commission board outside.
The teller who was still frantically processing the paperwork behind the counter quickly looked up and said, "It will be changed soon, Hector... How do you know that my teacher and his wife are very loving, sir? Your adventurer information..."
Her voice suddenly stopped.
The teller lady gasped even louder.
This person... this person who is called teacher by Hector... no, this person who is called teacher by Mr. [How do you know that my teacher and his wife are so loving], isn't he the one who came to rob the Adventurer's Guild yesterday just to get the list of members!
So this adventurer who changed his name to "How do you know that my teacher and his wife are very affectionate?", the teacher and his wife in his name are...
She slowly looked at the "teacher's wife" standing next to the "teacher" and it was obvious that she was a couple with him.
The other party raised his chin towards him: "Is it fixed?"
"Changed...Changed." The teller handed over the documents silently with one hand, and slowly reached for the alarm button under the table with the other hand, and whispered, "Sir, do you really not need legal aid?"
Hector identified: "No, thank you, goodbye."
"Please rate my service..." the teller said weakly.
"Five stars, thank you," Hector quickly snatched the information sheet and ran out the door.
The adventurer counter clerk whose service rating is actually ten stars: …
She sat back in her chair weakly and looked at her colleague next to her.
"Are you free?" She said weakly, "Please find the patrol team and call the police for me."
"The man who came to rob the Adventurer's Guild's membership list yesterday seems to be forcing the guild members to change their names today while wearing strange clothes."
…
The exploration team members who were still outside selecting commissions had no idea that they had been defined as perverts who forced adventurers to wear women's clothes and change their names.
Or maybe this definition is not wrong...
Everyone went through the commission acceptance procedures with a bunch of commissions that had been successfully screened, and then walked out of the Adventurer's Guild with Hector.
"These are basically commissions related to the powerful people in Besai City," Yun Guang briefly introduced, "Because without the key plot of the Battle of Besai City, if you want to show up in front of these people, this is the only way."
Besser is a large and complex city, with both difficult and easy commissions. Most of them are not issued by the nobles themselves, but by their subordinates or stewards.
"Ahem... because they need to be familiar with you, so we won't appear with you directly," Xu Zichen coughed lightly, "but don't worry, if there is any danger, we will be there and won't let you get into any accidents. Besides, you use magic quite well, don't you?"
After a morning of struggle, Hector now knew four spells, each of which he used very smoothly and was more than enough to complete some commissions.
As for the remaining more difficult part, aren’t they still there for us?
"The first one is..." Bai Mo looked at the list in his hand, "to prepare the food needed for the birthday party for the noble lady who will be holding a birthday party in the city in a few days."
"Oh, errands," she said happily, "but this seems a little difficult to impress the nobles."
Who would remember an adventurer who prepared food in the kitchen?
——The noble lady who happened to come to the kitchen was suddenly enlightened and stopped Hector who was holding a pile of Chinese cabbage and lettuce.
"Adventurer sister," she said with shining eyes, "Which store did you have this dress custom-made at? It's so beautiful!"
Hector covered his face: "I am a man..."
"Sister, where did you get your skirt made and your hair dyed?" The noble lady put her hands together, "I can't imagine how cheerful a little girl I would be if I could wear such beautiful clothes on my birthday."
Bai Jinshu carried his unlucky apprentice out of the kitchen.
"Not for sale," he said coldly, "there is only this one."
——
"The second commission is..." Su Hao looked at the commission, "Use the magic camera to take a panoramic view of Besser City and provide inspiration for the artist."
"That's easy," he looked at Dermis, "Do you have any way to get to the highest point to take pictures?"
——Everyone in the Mage Tower saw the man who had robbed them the day before coming back again in a swagger, followed by a noble lady who covered her face with a fan.
"You, you, you..." The gatekeeper covered his chest, "Not only did you rob the Mage Tower, but you also brought your sister here for a tour. Do you think we can come and go as we please?"
Bai Jinshu, who was walking in the front, asked in confusion: "Isn't it?"
You can come and go as you please in the Mage Tower.
Gatekeeper: ...
"I'm not a sister..." Hector choked.
"My goodness," said the gatekeeper compassionately, "poor fellow, have you been poisoned?"
——
"Hmm... the third commission," Guan Hongyan took a look, "The Duke's eldest son has been suffering from insomnia for half a month and is in urgent need of a bard who is good at telling stories. I commission the adventurer to find a bard who can tell unique adventure stories in Besai City."
"I think the bard yesterday was quite different," she scratched her head, "the one who told the legend of the dragon slayer."
——"Uh... later," Hector stammered as he played the piano, "Then the dragon lived happily with the necromancer he had robbed, because the necromancer's bones were very shiny and he didn't need to eat."
The Duke's eldest son, who was only seven years old, poked his head out from under the quilt: "Wow, is that necromancer also as shiny as you?"
His mentor snorted coldly beside him.
"No," Hector said heavily, "shinier than me."
"Will you be captured by the dragon?" The Duke's eldest son poked his head out.
His mentor's partner also snorted.
"No," Hector said solemnly, "I will die if I don't eat, and the dragon only likes necromancers, he won't take me away."
"Oh," the eldest Duke nodded, not quite understanding, "Why is it so cold?"
"Let me light a fireball for you..." Hector glanced at the two snorting necromancers and weakly summoned a fireball from his palm, "How is it? Is it warmer?"
"Who told you this story?" the eldest Duke's son asked curiously.
"I always... I always heard what the necromancer and the dragon said!" Hector quickly changed his words.
——
"The fourth one is a bit difficult," Zhao Yinglai muttered, "This one is to help the Colosseum find the beast that broke out of the iron cage last night. It is said that this beast is very fierce and escaped by biting through the iron cage."
"It's okay," she waved her hand, "We will help you, you won't die, right Dermis."
——When the beast with bared teeth was about to open its mouth to swallow the adventurer, a mysterious man in a wizard's robe suddenly appeared behind him.
Bai Jinshu released a huge earth shield, blocking the giant beast's mouth.
The giant beast struggled violently, but was controlled in place by a water prison.
"Go back and practice more," he crossed his arms and looked at Hector, "If you can't even beat this, how are you going to open the gate to the Kingdom of God?"
Huai Jiamu nodded silently.
"I haven't learned this yet..." Hector whimpered.
"Go find your senior brother," his teacher said, "and ask him to teach you the spell."
[More Resentful than Ghosts], who was working overtime in the cubicle, sneezed loudly.
"Hey, are you okay?" a colleague asked with concern.
[Grudge is heavier than ghosts]: "It shouldn't be... A-choo, are you okay... A-choo, I might have caught a cold... A-choo."
"You definitely have a cold," my colleague said. "Don't add any more. Go back and take some medicine."
[Grudge is heavier than ghosts]: "A-choo, I'm leaving first... A-choo! See you tomorrow."
…
By the time the patrol team received the second alarm message from the Adventurer's Guild and dispatched personnel to deal with it, the story of a magical adventurer in a shining dress had already spread among the nobles in a small circle.
This adventurer has magical long hair (15w white hair dyed colorful purple), magic hands (can summon fireballs), can talk to small animals (the dragon told him his love story himself!), has been poisoned (the gatekeeper of the wizard tower swore that he was definitely cursed), and has huge problems with his family (Mom, your son said he was going to be an adventurer but actually he was wearing a skirt in the big city).
And everyone who has come into contact with him believes that all his problems were solved by a man who suddenly appeared (when he got home from get off work, he suddenly remembered his unlucky junior brother whose [resentment was heavier than a ghost]).
"So..." The patrol member hesitantly looked at the person he was seeking information from, "Who do you think this adventurer is?"
"So," the citizens of Besser City swore, "we believe that this adventurer is Princess Disney!"
"No way," the patrolman twitched his lips, "We don't have the copyright."
"So it's Disney." The citizen of Bessie was sure.
The author has something to say:
Small town street glider exploded Disney Princess
