Looking at the 100% completion rate of the dungeon and the 80% progress of character collection, Xia Yao sighed secretly.
Sure enough, I missed some characters.
It's impossible to say that there are no regrets. After all, this special copy is a one-time thing and will not appear again after it ends. It is different from ordinary combat copies. If the challenge fails, you can continue to enter and challenge again.
If you don’t reach double 100, the reward will be somewhat lost.
Xia Yao laughed and took the item rewarded by the system.
The first one is a black cloak, the kind with a cape.
You know what it is at first glance, Bazel's signature look.
I clicked on the item details and was surprised to find that this cloak could actually become invisible!
[Invisibility Cloak: Automatically hides the wearer upon wearing, and grants a roving effect. (Velocity: Teleports the wearer's position instantaneously, with a maximum teleportation distance of no more than 8 meters)]
Isn't this the standard equipment for assassins? It can be said to be very practical!
Xia Yao accepted it with satisfaction, and then clicked on the second reward - a dark red armor piece.
She had seen this piece of armor in the dungeon. It was a must-wear item for the orcs when going into battle.
It is not a complete piece of armor, but two pieces of equipment superimposed on the basic armor. It is solid and strong, and is probably used to increase defense value.
Enter the details column:
[Orc Armor Plate: Made by orcs, cannot be worn alone. When worn with armor, it can resist one fatal attack.]
It was even more powerful than she had imagined. Although it was only a disposable piece of equipment, it could withstand fatal attacks and was like adding wings to a tiger in battle.
It was worth it for her to put in 80% of her effort.
Satisfied, he put away the special items and prepared to return to the city.
If a military merit mission fails, you will not be able to take on any more missions on the same day.
In addition, there will be some penalties.
For example, now, she originally had 500 points and the rank of sergeant, but because she failed to successfully assassinate the scout orc, the person who issued the task directly deducted a full 100 points, and her rank was demoted from sergeant to corporal.
This caused her military merit points ranking to drop out of the top ten.
The players were stunned. Who knew the penalty for failing once would be so severe?!
[Fuck! I'm suddenly afraid to accept quests now. What's going on?...]
[Deducting 100 points at once is too harsh. I'd have to sweep the streets 50 times to make back my money.]
[Looking at it makes me feel bad for the boss]
[If the NPC dares to deduct 100 points from me, I will fight him to the death!]
However, some players stood up and expressed different opinions.
[Actually, not all failed military merit missions result in such severe penalties. Big Boss, I guess she accepted a war-related mission this time. There's a reminder when accepting war-related missions, telling the player the penalty for failure. If you can accept it, accept it. If you're unsure, don't accept it.]
[That's too much. Only 50 points for completing one campaign, and double the points for failing? Whoever wants to go ahead can do it. Anyway, I don't plan on taking any more (I'm just kidding!)]
[Dog head saves life +1]
[Dog head saves life +2]
Xia Yao didn't know that the players around the world were worried about her points and military rank at this time.
But compared to everyone's reaction, she seemed more casual.
It’s just 100 points. At worst, she can just take on some city defense construction tasks another day. It won’t take much time, and her ranking will go up quickly. These are not big problems for her.
On the other side, the Feroman Empire.
Eugene knelt on the ground, his red eyes full of dissatisfaction.
A whip was lashed at her fiercely, landing on her face with a loud snap, and the flesh on her left cheek immediately burst open.
"Female orcs are not allowed to go to the battlefield. You violated military orders and alerted the enemy on human territory. You will be punished according to military law!" The man holding the whip was dressed extraordinary and it was obvious that he was a person in a high position. He looked down at the female orc below with cold eyes.
Eugene smiled, a trickle of blood slowly flowing from the corner of his mouth. "Female orcs? What's wrong with female orcs? So many female orcs have sacrificed their lives for the empire, and you turned a blind eye to it, and even blamed the failure of the battle on them. What kind of heroes are you!"
"Don't insult military orders! I declare that Eugene * Elvina is sentenced to death by burning with fire for deceiving his gender, violating military orders, committing treason, and disrespecting the empire!" The whipper said as he whipped Eugene several more times.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that his last few whips were meant to kill people.
Eugene's face and chest were suddenly torn into several pieces, and blood gushed out from them, which was a shocking sight.
Rex panicked. He pulled at the fence with all his might and shouted desperately, "Eugene, you're crazy, Eugene! Admit your mistake! If you admit your mistake, you won't be punished!"
Although the current king has stipulated that female orcs are not allowed to go to the battlefield, if they violate the rules, they will not be dealt with strictly according to military law. As long as they cry and admit their mistakes and write a letter of commitment, they will not be held accountable.
As for why this is so, it is because female orcs are extremely precious in today's Ferroman Empire.
More than ten years ago, the third prince succeeded in taking power by means of some shady means. After taking power, he drastically changed the laws, disregarded history, distorted the truth, won over treacherous officials, and killed loyal men.
Among them, the female orcs bore the brunt (metaphorically, the first to be attacked or suffer a disaster).
At that time, many female orcs were maliciously accused of being wizards sent by humans, who used witchcraft to bewitch the orcs, and many of them were killed that year.
Later, when he realized that the number of female orcs had sharply decreased and the number of new orcs was decreasing, the king changed his policy, turning hostility into protection and forbidding female orcs from going to the battlefield. They only had to stay in the rear and have children in peace.
So as long as Eugene is willing to bow his head, Rex believes that the king will not pursue it!
Unexpectedly, the female orc in the fence had no intention of admitting her mistake. She just lowered her head and said nothing.
Rex was so anxious that his clenched fists were full of sweat.
Then two orcs came out, held Eugene on the left and right, and dragged her away with injuries all over her body.
It is estimated that the execution by burning with fire will be carried out soon. Rex is extremely anxious, and Eugene cannot bear such pain at all!
Eugene was his best friend, half his family, so how could he possibly watch her being tortured?
What should I do? Let him force his way in?
Sure! He's not afraid!
But the problem is that the chances of success are too small if he relies on his own strength.
He still needs help from others.
Who should I call?
In an extremely urgent situation, Rex was suddenly shocked to find that the person who emerged in his mind was that human!
That night, Xia Yao received a letter. On the cover of the letter were four small golden words: "Side Quest".
She didn't expect the task to be delivered to her in this form. She raised her eyebrows and took out the letter inside.
The letter paper is exactly the same as the cartoon paper that Bazel received in the copy.
What’s different is the handwriting inside, which is neat and beautiful, and looks as if it was written by someone else.
After reading the contents, Xia Yao's brows gradually furrowed.
On the one hand, she was worried about what happened to Eugene, but on the other hand, she felt a little surprised when the letter writer said, "You make me feel very familiar."
Unexpectedly, she was not the only one who had a sense of déjà vu when she met the two young orcs.
Xia Yao guessed that perhaps it was because she inherited Bazel's will that Rex felt she looked familiar.
He then burned the letter and rushed to the Feroman Empire overnight.
However, what Xia Yao did not notice was that when she was teleported to the northwest city of Demeter, her back was seen by the Three Buddhas.
Sandafo was doing his military duty here when he saw his guild leader suddenly appear. He wanted to go up and say hello with a smile, but the other party appeared and disappeared in an instant like a gust of wind, so fast that he didn't even have time to ask a question.
There are very few things that can make the big boss so excited. Sandao Fo rolled his eyes and decided to follow him to see if he could help.
Since she had followed Bazel to the Feroman Empire in the copy, Xia Yao was familiar with the designated location this time - an abandoned and dilapidated hut.
She deliberately put on a cloak before entering the house, and after entering the house, she took off the cloak on her head and appeared in an instant.
Rex didn't expect her to actually come, and he was surprised and delighted: "You really do know us, right?"
Xia Yao remained silent and didn't explain her identity. Instead, she asked, "How is the situation at the execution ground?"
Rex sighed, distracted. He took out a branch and drew on the wall: "There are sentinels at the four corners of the execution ground, about three at each corner. There are also stationed orcs inside the ground, generally eight to ten."
Xia Yao pondered: "That means there are more than 20 people in total that we need to deal with."
Rex nodded: "Yes, there are quite a few, so... I want you to help..."
"Eh? You?" Rex was a little surprised by his unconscious choice of words. The human in front of him looked only about 20 years old, about the same age as him and Eugene. Why would he address him as "you"?
Xia Yao also noticed that she had been promoted to a higher generation.
I felt it was interesting, but I didn't show it on my face. I continued to guide him: "Then what? Do you have any plans?"
The reason she asked this was not because she was very patient, but because she subconsciously felt that she should do so, as if she was really Bazel, like an elder, patiently guiding her best friend's child.
I have to say that the game Eternal is very well made and allows players to fully immerse themselves in the plot.
Rex obediently told his plan: "I want you to hold back the sentinel orcs at the four corners while I go in and rob them."
His weapon was a machete and he was better at close combat. After that fight, he knew that the human in front of him could shoot arrows, so he specially arranged for her to use arrows to deal with the sentinels.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound outside the door!
Xia Yao's eyes flashed, and she dodged and blocked the other person with her fan.
The whole process was so fast that Rex stared blankly.
The person hiding outside the door whimpered: "Boss...it's me..."
Xia Yao took back the fan: "What are you doing here sneaking around?"
Three Buddhas: "I don't want to help you secretly~"
In the moonlight, his attire caught Xia Yao's eye.
Xia Yao's eyebrows twitched slightly: "Have you undergone a major blood transfusion?"
A major overhaul means replacing all equipment from head to toe.
The Three Dao Buddha chuckled, his expression suddenly smug. "How's it going, big boss? Doesn't it look good? Your whole body is crimson, blazing like fire. It feels like it's going to explode!"
This is the complete set he got after triggering the Red Dragon Mage. Not only does it have good attributes, it also looks very cool.
To be honest, if many of his guildmates weren't online right now, he would really show off his Red Dragon Suit in front of everyone!
Probably guessing that he wanted to show off in front of her, Xia Yao smiled and did not expose him. Instead, she called Rex out and introduced his identity.
Rex naturally accepted Sandafo and sincerely praised the latter's equipment: "Your equipment is really beautiful!"
Three Buddhas: "This kid is really enlightened~"
Rex: "Like a burning star, it's booming!"
Xia Yao: Phew...
Three Buddhas:?
Kid, where did you learn this metaphor?
The author has something to say:
I have maintained daily updates for more than 60 days without interruption, but my results are getting worse and worse. I wanted to give up many times, but I saw that Baozi gave me nutrient solution yesterday. Okay, help me up, I can still fight for another 300 rounds!
