Chapter 59
Public enchantment?
Xia Mo raised her eyebrows. This was the first time she heard of such an activity.
But soon, an idea came to her mind.
"Okay, thank you Ms. Delia."
After expressing his gratitude, Xia Mo rushed non-stop towards the soldier training camp in the royal city.
Generally, activities related to the Corps are held in the training camp, but Xia Mo is not very sure, so he can only go and take a look first.
On the way, she displayed her two hidden dragon titles. When she arrived at the gate of the training camp, the new recruit on guard saw the titles on her head and her world reputation that far exceeded that of other players, and immediately politely led her to the sergeant's office.
Upon hearing that she wanted to observe the public enchantment this afternoon, the sergeant raised his eyebrows and said, "Adventurer, this is a royal event. Ordinary citizens are not allowed to participate!"
Although he was rejected as soon as he opened his mouth, Xia Mo was not discouraged. Instead, he smiled slightly and showed his resident status in Huangsi City and his honor points.
"What if I come to observe on behalf of Feisali, the Lord of Huangsi City? I wonder if the King would be accommodating?"
"Huangsi City?" The sergeant frowned, thinking for a moment. Then, he looked her up and down and snorted coldly, "Give me your resident ID badge. I'll report to the king right away."
Xia Mo grinned and handed over the badge respectfully.
The sergeant left the office, and Xia Mo waited quietly there.
Honestly, she was only 60% sure the king would be lenient. While she had a resident badge proving her status in Huangsi City, she still held no official position there. She didn't expect the king to relent simply based on her honor points as the city's top resident and the two dragon titles.
But she had to try, because this was the fastest way to clear Matthew's name.
A short while later, the sergeant came running back, his face less hostile than before. "Honorary resident of Huangs City, the king values your contributions to the city's development and has granted you special permission to observe the training this afternoon. Here are your badge and your special ID card. Take them and remember to arrive at the training camp promptly at 2:00 PM."
"Okay, thank you!" Xia Mo bent down and took it politely.
When he came out of the training camp, it was exactly 9 o'clock in the morning. There were still 5 hours in between. Xia Mo planned to go out of the city to kill monsters and try to reach level 17.
When passing by Lawrence Cathedral, she was suddenly stopped by a beggar NPC without an ID.
"Young man, I seem to see something familiar in you. What's your name?"
After running around in the royal city for so many years, Xia Mo only just discovered that there was an unknown NPC squatting next to the stairs of the cathedral.
She stopped and looked at the other person's tattered clothes, then walked over and squatted down: "Hello, my name is Mo Se."
"Well, Mo Se... is a good name. I guess when your parents chose this name..."
Balabla……
The beggar started talking non-stop, rambling on and on about his name. Xia Mo was in a hurry and didn't want to listen, but because the NPC called her, she finally listened to him patiently.
Three minutes later, he finally stopped talking nonsense and waved at her: "Young man, come closer, I have something to tell you."
Xia Mo took a few steps closer.
"Come closer, you're too far away."
She took a few more steps.
Suddenly, the other party seemed to go crazy, and grabbed Xia Mo's collar with his dry arms, his face full of gnashing teeth and bloodshot eyes!
"Damn young man, why! Why can you live in this world without worries, while I have to wander around in this cage all day long? Ah, I can't remember anything! Damn it, do you know who I am?"
The sudden tugging of his collar made Xia Mo throw himself forward.
But the strange thing was that her body did not collide with the other person, but passed through him like air, as if... he was a transparent man!
Undead?!
Xia Mo was shocked and quickly turned around, wanting to ask the other party more about the situation. But when she raised her eyelids, she was the only one left at the church stairs. There was no sign of the beggar.
Disappeared... The other party was indeed an undead.
Just as she was surprised, the taskbar suddenly refreshed.
[The undead assassin Toynbee's dying wish: Go to the Yakat Cave to search for memories. Perhaps this memory is related to your gray nameless necklace?]
etc!
Undead Assassin? Toynbee?!
Xia Mo looked at these words over and over again, and for a moment he almost forgot to breathe. Oh my God! This is the famous assassin on the continent of Pergas! Even if he had never played the assassin role, Xia Mo didn't know how many times he had heard it from others!
A great man who founded a school of assassins, but in the end, because of his arrogant character, he offended the king at the time, was whipped and kicked out of the royal city, and was never allowed to set foot in the royal city again.
Later it was said that Toynbee was imprisoned somewhere and ended his life miserably.
However, the great founder refused to leave the world at this point. Later, rumors continued to circulate among the people that Toynbee was not dead, and his soul was still in this world, but he had transformed into an undead assassin and was wandering in the royal city.
When the assassin players heard about it, they immediately started a trend of looking for Toynbee.
However, no matter how they searched the royal city and asked everywhere, the so-called rumors were never confirmed.
Even Xia Mo himself thought it was just a legend.
But who would have known that the undiscovered Undead Assassin Toynbee would just appear before her and give her a dying mission?!
This is no coincidence!
Excited, Xia Mo quickly understood why Toinbi chose her instead of his fellow assassin.
Because she had the gray nameless necklace in her hand, the strange necklace that fell from the dragon, with no attributes and no name.
No wonder Toynbee said he saw something familiar in her when he saw her. This must be what he was referring to.
Who would have thought that this necklace is actually related to the founder of the Assassins?!
hiss--
Even Xia Mo, who had triggered various tasks before, couldn't help but take a breath.
Oh my goodness, this necklace could significantly improve one of the assassin's attributes, right? Agility, balance, or attack?
No matter what, these attributes are very useful to her as a star official!
At the very end, Xia Mo took a deep breath and suppressed his excitement.
We immediately changed our steps and headed out of the city to the Yakat Cave.
The Yakat Cave is located in the southwest of the continent. It is not very close. It took Xia Mo a full hour to teleport all the way with the help of the black horse.
Cross the Kamais Mountains, find a small river at the foot of the mountains, and row a boat along the river. You will then see the largest group of caves on the continent of Pargas.
Stalactites, gypsum crystals, underground terraces, waterfalls in the cave, and other unique landscapes unique to the cave can all be seen here.
However, Xia Mo's mind was not on this, but on looking for someone.
The mission did not give her specific coordinates, so she could only follow the river and search one by one.
Players who have never been to the Yakat Cave will not know how difficult it is to find the way in it.
The cave consists of 8 main caves, 130 branch caves, 7 underground rivers and several tributaries. The entire cave has a vertical depth of 236 meters and a length of 6.8 kilometers. The small caves are nested in each other and winding around each other. Players who enter for the first time will inevitably get lost.
Some people may be confused at this point. If you can’t find the way, just open the map. How simple is that?
Unfortunately, you can't unfold the map inside the Yakat Cave. If you want to find something, you'll have to explore it yourself.
Because of this, the Yakat Cave was rated as one of the most complex maps in "Protoss" in the previous life.
Even Xia Mo did not have full confidence at this time that he could successfully find the memory of the undead assassin Toynbee.
Carefully paddling the small wooden boat, Xia Mo slowly entered the first underground river.
The water hit the wooden boat, and then bounced back to hit the reefs on both sides of the cave. In the huge and dim space, the only sound was the rushing water.
As the wooden boat went further in, the light became dimmer. Xia Mo had no choice but to light the prop oil lamp and place it on the bow, barely illuminating the area within a few meters.
Pairs of eyes suddenly lit up on both sides, like ghosts in the dark night, staring intently at the prey that had strayed into its nest.
Cave bats are small monsters around level 18. They don't have much health and are not difficult to deal with, but the annoying thing is that there are too many of them and they like to attack players in groups.
Xia Mo didn't want to fight with them because it was not cost-effective. The experience points gained from a group of them were only equivalent to that of one black bear in the Black Bear Forest. She didn't want to waste her precious time and mana bar.
He immediately held his breath, sat in the boat, and did not move, letting the boat drift slowly into the depths with the current.
Bats identify objects by sound, so as long as she doesn't make any noise, they probably won't attack her.
It floated forward like this for more than ten minutes, and the number of eyes on both sides gradually decreased.
After avoiding the bat, Xia Mo breathed a sigh of relief, then picked up the oar again and rowed slowly but rhythmically.
The first underground river was not long, and it only took her more than 20 minutes to go back and forth.
She looked in every corner but didn't find anything related to the Undead Assassin, so she turned the boat around, turned into the branch cave next to it, and went to the second underground river.
Unexpectedly, just as the boat turned in, it collided with another boat with the same oil lamps lit!
Bang! Crash!!!
“Who can I rely on?”
Xia Mo also wanted to ask, who on earth was it that caused the oil lamp on her bow to be knocked over? She had to spend money to buy it!
Fortunately, the oil lamp on the opposite boat did not turn over. With the help of the faint light, Xia Mo frowned unhappily and saw the ID of the person on the opposite side clearly - Daydream, the male assassin who won the level 15 difficult second level last night.
Xia Mo complained about his bad luck that they met in such a place.
Not knowing whether the other party was following her or had some other mission, she quickly paddled past the other boat just in case.
However, at the moment when the bows of the ships crossed, Xia Mo suddenly reached out to the opposite ship!
"Hey, what are you doing? That's my oil lamp!"
Daydreaming had never expected that she would steal the oil lamp, and he started shouting loudly, but even though he shouted, he didn't dare to jump onto Xia Mo's boat.
Xia Mo didn't take other people's things for nothing. He took out 10 silver coins from his backpack and threw them directly into the opposite boat: "Here's the money for the oil lamp!"
She turned out of the branch cave so slowly that even if there was an oncoming boat, it could have been hit if it was not moving fast. To put it bluntly, it was because Daydream's boat was moving too fast that it overturned her only oil lamp.
She hasn't completed her mission yet, so she can't explore the cave in the dark.
After throwing the silver coin, she didn't even look back and floated away along the current.
Along the way, Xia Mo felt more and more uneasy.
Her mission was related to assassination, and Daydream was also an assassin. What a coincidence that they collided in such a remote cave. Xia Mo was thinking while rowing.
Although the gray nameless necklace is in her hand, if they really run into the same task target, won’t the properties of her necklace be unable to be activated?
No, the duck that I have caught cannot fly away. Xia Mo tightened his grip and increased the speed of rowing!
