Chapter 110 Reward Choice
It was a pity for the elf that the pitiful 150 points of faction contribution in his hand were only enough to exchange for a set of six bottles of the cheapest Olivendi life/mana potion in the list, or a bottle of Olivendi advanced life/mana potion.
After distributing the rewards, Anvis ordered the family guards present to protect the last dragonborn to the imperial capital to continue his "subsequent mission".
As the main frontier defense corps of the royal family, even though the White Rose Corps has begun to decay internally, its remaining strength should not be underestimated.
Avis believed that after confirming the evidence of the White Rose Army smuggling contraband, the family should be able to exchange this evidence for a good price.
And he who provided this evidence will surely receive a good reward.
"Your Excellency, I have one more thing that I would like to ask for your help."
However, somewhat to Avis's surprise, the Last Dragonborn did not stop communicating, but took the opportunity to try to make a request to him.
"I hope you can help me investigate the whereabouts of a mercenary group called 'Heavy Sword'.
As if worried that Avis wouldn't take it seriously, the elf added another sentence.
"Last time, they were the ones who transported secret supplies to the White Rose Army."
"'Heavy Sword' Mercenary Group?"
Avis was slightly startled.
I checked my memory and it's a name I've never heard of.
After thinking about it, he put on a standard NPC attitude of doing things impartially.
"Mr. Rivers, the value of your intelligence is not enough for me to use the family's intelligence power.
If you insist on investigating, I will take back the magic ring I gave you as a reward."
Looking at his elven follower, Anvis calmly placed the choice before him.
"So, what are your choices?"
Facing the pale and mysterious noble boy in front of him, the Last Dragonborn instinctively stroked the ring and fell into obvious hesitation.
After a moment, his gaze became firm again.
"Let's do it, Lord Anvis."
What surprised Avis was that the elf finally decided to give up the Ring of Wayne and chose to use the reward of this mission in exchange for information about the 'Heavy Sword' mercenary group.
He was very sure that none of the current accessories on the elves could match the effect of the Ring of Wayne.
Different from ordinary games, the equipment in Mystic Era has no rigid level limit. Even if the player character is only level one, he can equip level ninety equipment.
The only limitation is that when the gap between the character level and the equipment level is too large, the attributes of the equipment cannot be fully utilized, and only a small part of it can be utilized.
"Can you tell me why you made this choice?"
After looking at the elf doubtfully, Avis asked in surprise.
Given the player's character of not doing anything without profit, he would rather lose a high-level magic accessory in order to investigate the whereabouts of a mercenary group? Could it be that this mercenary group is not only smuggling, but also has clues to some secret treasures? "Actually, this is what happened. Before that, I accidentally got separated from the caravan..."
Not knowing what Avis was thinking, the Last Dragonborn did not hide anything in response to his inquiries.
He simply recounted how he accidentally got separated from the caravan, found a letter on a dead woman on the roadside, and then decided to go to Manchenko Castle to investigate the situation.
Listening to the explanation of the last dragonborn, the expressions on the faces of the Olivendi family guards standing next to the elves gradually became complicated.
He felt that this strange elf was simply unreasonable.
He gave up a precious magic ring just to exchange for the whereabouts of the family of a civilian deceased he met on the roadside.
If it were him, he would never make such a 'stupid' choice.
"I see--"
On the other side of the crystal ball, Avis looked at the blood-stained letters in the elf's hand and nodded with some understanding.
There are many story-loving players among the game, and he was one of them in his previous life.
Besides, we are now in the closed beta test period with deleted files.
It's hard to say which is more valuable, a magic ring or the truth of a story.
"However, I heard that your strength is close to the sixth level?"
The subject suddenly changed, Avis' tone abruptly changing, his azure eyes fixed on the last dragonborn, as if he wanted to see right through him.
"Oh? Yes, sir..."
Faced with the noble boy's suddenly oppressive gaze, the Last Dragonborn was stunned for a moment. He didn't react to what was going on and could only follow his words.
"Five and a half months? Haha..."
With an ambiguous smile, Avis spoke again.
"I don't care why you hide your strength, Rivers, that's your own business. Now, I can make an exception and give you a third choice—"
Hidden strength?
The last dragonborn suddenly realized and thought he understood Avis's thoughts.
According to the time in this world, the day he became the follower of the noble boy in front of him was at the end of May.
At that time, he had just created his character and had not had time to do any tasks, so his level was only level 1.
And now, relying on the hundredfold experience gained from the internal beta test, he has reached level 59, which is close to the sixth-level strength of the NPC.
In five months, he went from an ordinary person to a fifth-level peak professional.
From the perspective of these 'NPCs', this upgrade speed can only be explained by hiding their strength.
While the last dragonborn was daydreaming in his mind, Avis paused for a moment, considerately giving his follower some time to think.
After the elf had digested the meaning of his words, Avis continued speaking.
"I will help you investigate the whereabouts of the Heavy Sword Mercenary Group, and the magic ring will still be yours."
"However, as a price, I have a special mission that I need you to perform."
In fact, this issue does not require the use of the family's intelligence agency.
As long as the family members are negotiating with the White Rose Legion, they can just ask them individually.
Considering that the players' internal testing period is about to end, Avis decided to seize the time and put on the agenda an experiment he had long wanted to do.
"I choose the third option. Your Excellency, what task do you need me to perform?"
The last dragon descendant was delighted.
A new mission is here! Maybe it's a hidden mission! This faction is awesome! "Don't worry——"
Looking at the elf with a happy expression, Anvis smiled elegantly, but did not answer directly, "The family guards will protect you to the imperial capital. After we meet, I will tell you the specific mission information.
During this time before you arrive at the capital, I will send someone to investigate the whereabouts of that mercenary group.
No matter what their fate is, when you come before me, this matter will have a result. "
