◎I, Xia Ri Lihua, agree to voluntarily join the Guild Flame Fury starting from April 18th, Year 1 of Miracle◎
"Come back in half an hour to pick it up." A voice came from inside the house.
"OK, thanks."
The other party was a pharmacist, so Xia Li had to be respectful.
Now the alchemy formula is missing one last thing, biogas...
Xia Li looked at the blue sky above her head and sighed deeply.
It's no wonder that other professional mentors look down on Morgan. Others often use silver skills and golden light, and are bathed in red, orange, red, green, blue and purple every day. Only alchemists are accompanied by methane and poisonous gases all day long.
It is simply the most villain-like profession, no doubt about it.
But do you want to ask her if she regrets it?
No, no regrets.
She chose her own path and has no regrets.
Counting on the half-hour mark, Xia Li chose the cesspool behind the nearest hotel.
Holding her breath, she bent down, scooped the glass bottle above the pit, used the identification technique, and saw that the system prompted her that there was 100ml of biogas in the bottle. Then she fled the scene at the speed of light.
"Did you roll around in the pigpen?"
When half an hour was up, the door opened. Xiqi frowned and looked her up and down.
Maybe it smells a little worse than a pigsty.
The corners of Xia Li's mouth twitched, and she didn't respond.
"Here, it's for you. Don't bother me next time." Xiqi didn't like being disturbed, so he threw the thing to her and slammed the door shut.
The door slammed a bit loudly this time, prompting the NPC lady next door to call her out again: "Damn Xiqi, you're always making noises! Why are you here again?!"
The old lady peeked out and saw Xia Li. "Oh wow, so you're in cahoots with Xiqi? Wizards! A bunch of wizards! I'm going to expose you to the Queen!"
As he said that, he opened the door and was about to come out to catch her.
Every NPC in Miracle has its own storyline. Unless necessary, players should avoid conflicts with NPCs.
When Xia Li saw the aunt coming out with her fat body swaying, she quickly turned around and ran away.
"Hurry, hurry, everyone hurry!"
Towards the gate of the royal city, a large group of cavalrymen wearing armor and armor rode past on war horses, almost knocking down some players.
"What the hell is going on? NPCs can act so arrogantly now?!" Several players were unhappy and cursed inwardly.
"Maybe something happened outside the city." The NPC selling fruits ignored the player's curses and said lightly while wiping the dust off the fruits.
There are no plots or NPCs without reason in Miracle. First, the cavalry ran out of the city, and then the NPC who set up a stall gave a hint. Obviously, all this is related to the linkage copy that is about to be opened.
However, the news has not been released on the world channel yet, and most players are still unaware of it.
If the player's game acumen was high enough, they might have vaguely guessed from the previous scene that a quest was about to be triggered. As for those with lower acumen, or even no acumen at all, they simply didn't take the NPC's words to heart, just like the cursing players in front of them.
This is the gap between players.
Some people only care about the present, while others have already started to take action.
Xia Li hurriedly found an empty corner, shook out all the ingredients for the recipe, and mixed them together.
An indescribable pungent smell instantly rushed into my nose.
Then, another equally huge silver-blue alchemy array appeared at her feet.
However, this time, the center of the alchemy array was no longer outlined with a poisonous bee with a stinger, but a gas pattern.
The alchemy array rotated, and the light appeared and disappeared.
[Alchemy formula poison gas critical attack successfully learned]
There is finally a melee skill in the panel, and it is instant.
Before, whether it was Green Mist or Poison Bee, she had to raise her hand to summon the skill. Although her movements were fast enough, it still delayed her by a few tenths of a second.
In battle, time is life. Not to mention 0.1 seconds, even in the blink of an eye, the situation of a battle may be reversed.
And now she has [Poison Critical Strike], which does not require any summoning action. She only needs to silently recite the skill name in her mind and the skill will be triggered in time.
Moreover, this is a skill that can cause a second attack. If it can be successfully combined with her own critical strike attribute, the damage caused to the enemy will be considerable!
Xia Li retracted her skills, opened her friend list, sent a message to someone on the list, then turned and ran towards the city gate in the northwest corner.
After leaving the royal city and mobilizing her mount, Xia Li followed the cavalry all the way to the destination of this mission - Yakao Village.
When they chased to the center of the woods, suddenly, a beam of ice blue shot out from the woods and headed straight for her side face!
It's the mage's ice spike!
Xia Li narrowed her eyes, sat on Xiaoguai's back and quickly leaned over, perfectly avoiding the attack.
The ice spikes pierced the giant tree beside her. Xia Li sat back down and adjusted the reins in her hand.
Xiaoguai was very smart. After understanding her intention, he straightened his body so that she was facing the direction of the sneak attack.
A group of people slowly walked out of the woods.
"Hello, Summer Lihua." The leader walked out slowly from the shadows and spoke slowly, as if showing her his composure.
Xia Li smiled coldly and replied, "Hello, President Lieyan."
The president of Lieyanfuhuo, who is also Long Yan's uncle, is known as a smiling tiger.
"I've heard of your great name a long time ago, but I didn't expect that when I met you today, you would be different from what I imagined." Lieyan's eyes swept across the lava beast vaguely, and finally slowly fell on her. He bent his eagle eyes and chuckled.
"Something?" Xia Li curled up one corner of her mouth.
But there was a hint of coldness in this smile, and perhaps only Lie Yan and the group of people behind him could feel it.
"Hahaha, I just like straightforward people like you! In this case, I'll just get straight to the point." Lieyan said as he waved behind him. A follower player stood out from behind, holding an exquisite box inlaid with gems in his hand.
"Nice to meet you. This is a little gift from our guild leader." Lieyan didn't say anything. The follower player took the initiative to lift the box and opened the lid, revealing a thick layer of gold coins inside.
At least 300 gold coins. Xia Li took a quick look and made a rough estimate.
This is quite generous. Basically, only the two major guilds in the entire Miracle Guild, Flame and Dark Storm, can afford this money.
"What's this, President Lieyan?" she asked back.
Lieyan continued to look at her with a smile, saying nothing. The follower player beside him then said, "Our president sincerely invites you to join us. The 300 gold coins in the box are just a small gift."
Invite her to join the guild, and then forcibly take away her Lava Beast and Skeleton Magic Ring?
Without even having to think about it, Xia Li knew what the other party was planning. She raised the corner of her mouth slightly and said, "Sorry, I prefer to go it alone."
"Oh? Really?" Lieyan looked at her meaningfully and said slowly, "But why did I hear that you joined Fengyun Tianxia before? Don't you prefer to go it alone?"
"So we won't retreat." Xia Li sat on the back of the Flame Beast and shrugged.
"Haha, interesting," Lieyan smiled and then clapped his hands lightly.
Another player stood up from behind. This time, the player only held a piece of parchment in his hand. There were words written on the parchment, so densely packed that Xia Li couldn't see clearly from the distance.
After getting Lieyan's consent, the player walked up to her and handed her the parchment. "The president would like you to review it. If you find it suitable, you can sign it on the spot."
Xia Li took it.
【Employment Contract】
Four beautiful large characters come into view.
I, Xia Ri Lihua, agree to voluntarily join the Guild Blazing Fury starting April 18th, Year One of Miracle. During the effective period of this contract, I agree to:
[1. Lieyanfuhuo reserves the right to arrange for me to participate in any reasonable gaming activities based on business needs, including but not limited to raiding dungeons, participating in competitive rankings, and working in gold-farming groups.]
[2. Without the consent of Flame's Fury, I shall not disclose any information about Flame's Fury or its members to any third party.]
3. During my employment, any work I perform will not infringe upon the legal rights and interests of Lieyan Nuhuo. If any violation occurs, I will voluntarily assume the corresponding liability for breach of contract.
【4.……】
The whole process only discusses responsibilities but not compensation, which is a typical contract of selling oneself.
Xia Li laughed softly.
Lieyan's smile froze slightly, then quickly expanded again: "It seems you still have some concerns about this contract."
"No worries," Xia Li retracted her chuckle and denied it outright.
"Then congratulations, from now on you will officially become a member of the largest guild - Flame Fury." Lieyan laughed.
"I didn't say I wanted to join you." Xia Li handed the parchment back to the player and glanced at it lightly.
Lieyan's expression was slightly hesitant: "What do you mean?"
Xia Li: "It's exactly what it means. President Lieyan, you know, don't you understand?"
"Li Zi! This is the president of the largest guild! Don't talk like that." A familiar figure walked out from the crowd behind him.
Xia Li raised her eyebrows and looked at the gorgeous figure coming towards her: "How I talk to the president is none of your business."
There are two meanings in her words.
First, you have no right to interfere with who I talk to.
Second, even if I am talking to your president, you have no right to interrupt.
Mantian Feixue understood the implication of her words, and her mouth twitched with anger. But soon, as she took a deep breath, a hint of pride appeared on her lips again. "Yes, I have no right to interfere in Guild Leader Lieyan's affairs, but this is a matter concerning the entire guild. As the manager of the guild, I certainly have the right to intervene."
"Really? Then how do you want to manage it?" Xia Li was not interested in her so-called manager at all. Instead, she crossed her hands in front of her chest and looked down at her with a half-smile.
"I want you..." Feixue opened her mouth and subconsciously wanted to order something.
But suddenly realizing the president was still beside her, how could a mere district administrator like her go so far as to speak out of her position? However, Feixue felt a lump in her throat as she thought, and now, being questioned, her mind went blank.
Lieyan would not bear to see his guild members being bullied by an outsider, so he waved at Feixue, signaling her not to speak anymore. Then he suppressed his smile and walked towards Xia Li step by step.
Below him, the lava beast Xiaoguai seemed to feel the aura emanating from the other person. It dug its claws into the ground uneasily, trying to stay away from this person.
Xia Li was also anxious to catch up with the cavalry, and didn't want to waste time with this group of people. She lightly touched Xiaoguai's belly with her heel and prepared to leave.
However, the next second, a circle of golden light suddenly wrapped around his body!
It’s the mage’s combo skill Ice Ring!
Now, the only thing that dropped in the entire miracle was an Ice Ring skill book on the day of slaying the dragon. She remembered that the skill book was finally picked up by an inconspicuous small guild.
Unexpectedly, it ended up in Lieyan's hands.
Suddenly sneered.
She should have guessed long ago that how could a tyrannical existence like Blazing Fury tolerate a small guild holding such an important skill book?
"Little darling, run forward." She whispered.
However, the ring tightened very quickly, and Xiaoguai's movements slowed down due to fear, so the ring put him in almost in the blink of an eye.
-700!
-1400!
The mage's two consecutive ice ring attacks directly knocked off nearly half of its health bar.
Xiaoguai is a level 24 lava-type combat pet with thick skin and flesh comparable to some wild blood monsters, but in front of the flames, he is as fragile as a small biscuit and is cut in half by an ice ring.
Xia Li was a little surprised.
She currently does not have the skill to restore the health of her battle pet, and red potions can only be given to characters and not to her battle pet, so the health bars dropped by the monsters can only be restored by themselves after the battle is over.
If the health bar is cleared, the system will automatically deduct the life of the combat pet once.
Each pet starts with only 8 health points. In the previous life, there were players who didn't take their pet's life seriously, taking them out to fight elite monsters and boss monsters every day. As a result, within a few days, the pet's health was exhausted and it turned into a spot of light before the player's eyes, turning into ashes.
Battle pets are unique. If one dies, it is truly dead and will never be resurrected.
In order to punish the player who is the owner, the system will lock the player's battle pet function. The lock period starts from 10 days and is determined by the loyalty between the player and the battle pet.
This one point alone makes many players complain.
Imagine that you have finally learned the taming skills and tamed your favorite combat pet, but the combat pet loses its health every time you defeat wild bosses. Who would dare to release the combat pet anytime and anywhere?
Even if the official releases battle pet life potions later, each bottle of potion can increase the battle pet's life by 1, raising the upper limit of life to 30, but it is still several months before the life potion comes out, and she can't let Xiaoguai lose any life during this period!
Thinking of this, Xia Li jumped from Xiaoguai's back to the big tree next to her like a flash of lightning.
The flame's main target is her, not the lava beast.
Only by keeping a distance from Xiaoguai can everyone's skills avoid hitting it.
Her guess was correct.
Because since Lieyan took action, the group of people standing behind him began to focus their fire on her.
The archer's stream of arrows, the warrior's charge, the thief's rain of pear blossoms, one skill after another flashes dazzlingly in the dense forest!
Unlike any previous PK, this time the attack from behind was extremely fierce, and every attack was made with full strength. It was obvious that Lieyan meant to either force her to sign the contract or die here.
The trees on both sides kept falling down, and loud noises were heard behind us one after another.
Xia Li took advantage of the forest and moved like a mad snake, hoping to get rid of the pursuers from behind as soon as possible.
However, as she continued to run, roll and dodge, Xia Li gradually felt a little tired.
There are a total of 9 people on the opposite side. Except for Mantian Feixue, who is the only priest in the team, the remaining 8 are all damage dealers.
Including Flame, there are 3 Light Mages, 3 Archers, 1 Rogue, and 1 Paladin.
They are simply not in the same league.
Even if she was wearing incredible equipment and possessed incredible abilities, she would never be able to fight one against nine.
She was no match for them at all, and fighting them head-on would only lead to death.
what to do?
Xia Li hid while thinking in her mind.
