Chapter 417 First Contact

"Now Mrs. Fekchik is the person who owns the second most shops in the Holy Mountain, after Mr. Sergei."

Sergey...

Fekchik's economic express train on Raging City suddenly emerged. Luke's mobile phone database has no information about him, but Sergey's information is still relatively large.

Mekrido Sergey is a human, old-school trader on the sacred mountain of the Tedgar Hills.He is involved in almost all industries, and because he inherited the family's title of baron, he has a high status in the Holy Mountain.

According to the Intelligence Agency's intelligence, Sergey is now heavily relied on by the Duke of Celtic, and the foreign trade route he operates is the lifeline of the barbarian army during the war.

It is precisely because of his influence that when he entered the city, those who entangled the coconut left so fearfully.

Luke listened to the bartender's story very seriously, and was surprised that Mrs. Fickichek's hobbies were so special.To be able to become the person who owns the second most shops in the Holy Mountain within two years, Mrs. Fickchek must be either on the way of pursuing fashion, or on the way of buying a shop.

At the same time, it also shows that the barbarian Fekchik really made a lot of money in Raging City.

There are almost no large-scale factories in the Tedgar Hills, and most of the living and production materials come from manual workshops.Controlling the number of shops is not only a symbol of financial resources, but also the right to speak and influence.In particular, the Fekchik family is still a barbarian and has a certain family background.

Some underestimated the Fickchik family.

"The person who owns the second most shops in the holy mountain!" Coconut was also very surprised after hearing the bartender's story: "Did Mrs. Fekchik really invite us to live at her house?"

Luke replied: "Mrs. Fickchek likes to hear what's going on outside. You should have heard a lot of overseas stories in Southampton Town. You will definitely become good friends."

Coconut didn't realize that she was sold by Luke, she solemnly promised: "I have heard many overseas stories, and I will definitely satisfy Mrs. Fikechick."

Luke took a sip of the wine, and really didn't want to take another sip. He took out the change to pay the bill, and said to Naco, "Let's go, I'll take you to Fickichick's house. You guys have a good rest first, and I'll take the The task of the egg of Nirvana has been handled."

"Okay, Mr. Luke."

Coconut took her team members to follow Luke to Fekchik's house. Mrs. Fekchik was very enthusiastic. After asking the housekeeper to take them to choose a room, she asked the kitchen to cook a lot of delicious food.

After Luke settled the coconut, he left with the bag containing the Nirvana egg.Before leaving the house, Mrs. Fickichek specifically reminded: there is a pool party at night, so you must come to it on time.

Luke agreed and left.

The anonymous commissioner who issued the quest of the Egg of Nirvana was a respectable priest of the Abyss Temple, and his name was Egbert.What Luke has to do now is to go to the Adventurer's Association on the Holy Mountain and inform that the mission of the Nirvana Egg has been completed. After the Adventurer's Association confirms the authenticity of the item, it will notify Egbert to come and hand it over.

The Adventurer's Association of the Holy Mountain was built inside a mountain wall, with an open mission hall on the outside and a labyrinth-like functional area on the inside.

In Raging Waves City, the Adventurer's Association is under the strict supervision of the city's government affairs department, and can only accept formal bounty commissions.In the Holy Mountain, the Adventurer's Association's path is much wilder, and illegal employment transactions account for a large proportion, so there are many secret rooms here.

Luke showed that he had completed the Egg of Nirvana mission, and was immediately valued by the Adventurers Association after showing the Egg of Nirvana.He was taken to a secret room, and a brown goblin with wrinkled skin was in charge of reception.

"Mr. Luke, please sit down. I am a senior task confirmation specialist, you can call me... Tulu." The brown goblin put on a pair of glasses, and put on silk gloves seriously. He also took out the detection tool, and finally said to Luke: "Can I see your Nirvana egg?"

Luke put the bag containing the Nirvana egg on the table, and with a shake of his hand, the Nirvana egg rolled out.

"Be careful!" The brown goblin Tulu immediately held the Nirvana egg steady with both hands: "This is a treasure worth [-] million Reichsmarks!"

Luke said casually: "It looks like an egg, but it's definitely not as brittle as you imagined. Even if you smash it with a hammer, it won't leave marks on it."

"As a senior appraiser, of course I know that the Nirvana egg is very hard, but we should still give it the respect it deserves." The brown goblin carefully picked up the Nirvana egg, then took out the alchemy magnifying glass and used magic power to observe it carefully. The magic pattern on the eggshell.

Several tools were used to identify the egg of Nirvana, and finally the brown goblin reluctantly put down the egg.

He put away his tools, took off his glasses, and let out a long sigh.

"I didn't expect someone to really complete this task. The Egg of Nirvana is really a perfect work of art, and it is also a precious fire-attribute treasure." After the brown goblin sighed, he said to Luke: "I have confirmed that this is The real egg of Nirvana. Congratulations, Mr. Luke, after the task is completed and handed over, you can not only get a huge bonus with this task, but also be promoted to an A-level adventurer."

Luke repacked the Nirvana egg into the bag and asked, "Is the person who entrusted the mission in the holy mountain? I don't want to stay here for too long just to wait for someone."

The brown goblin replied: "The client who issued the task is now in the holy mountain. Please wait here for a while, the association will send someone to notify the other party immediately, and you will get the money soon."

"Hope I don't have to wait too long."

"No. You can drink tea here and wait, or you can visit the Holy Mountain Adventurers Association. Since the items you are carrying are too valuable, I do not recommend you to go outside the scope of the association. The holy mountain of barbarians is not a good The place."

"I understand, I'll wait here."

The brown goblin left, and a waiter brought Luke drinks and some snacks.

Luke didn't eat what was here, but reviewed the next task process while waiting.

After the player handed over the task of the Egg of Nirvana, he established a connection with the Priest Egbert.During the communication, Egbert will ask about the living environment of the firebird and the process of the player defeating the firebird. At this time, as long as the player properly shows some secret knowledge, he will be invited by Egbert to participate in his new secret art. experiment.

In the experiment, the player is a guinea pig who is "deceived" to do a dangerous secret technique test.The player, on the other hand, completed one test after another with "excellent luck", and became a "good partner" with Egbert.

If the whole plot is completed well, it is an intellectual breakthrough game; if it is not completed well, it is a violent breakthrough game.Different game directions have different rewards. Luke is here this time to prepare for intellectual breakthrough with the strategy.

Reviewing the plot again, when Luke thought he was ready, a man wearing a smock and a hood to cover himself pushed open the door and walked in.

Luke couldn't help but thumped when he saw the visitor.

The development of this plot...something is wrong!

But since it is no longer a game, some changes in the plot are inevitable, as long as the people and words are right.

Luke asked: "Are you the mission issuer of the Egg of Nirvana?"

The other party sat opposite Luke without showing his appearance: "Yes, I am the quest issuer of the Egg of Nirvana. The Adventurer's Association told me that they have confirmed that the Egg of Nirvana is real."

Luke patted the bag containing the Egg of Nirvana on the table: "Of course the Egg of Nirvana is real. Is the money in the Adventurer's Association? Give me the association's handover slip, and this thing is yours."

"As for the remuneration, I need to renegotiate with you. This has also been understood by the Adventurer's Association."

broken!

The plot really went off the rails!
Luke stabilized his mood and asked: "I don't think there is anything negotiable about the reward. It's not for [-] million Reichsmarks. I will never risk my life to fight the Firebird."

"If it was a few months earlier, although [-] million Reichsmarks is a lot of money for me, it is not impossible to take it out. But...you know that the Tedgar Hills are at war with the Empire, and my research funds are less a lot of."

Luke finally knew what was wrong.

Not only because Tedgar Hills was at war with the empire, but also because Qingkong killed four abyss apostles, making the abyss temple not as brilliant in the war as in the game plot.

If you don't cut your expenses, whose expenses will you cut?

It's just that the strategy is not right here, what should I do next!

"You don't have money, so it has nothing to do with me." Luke took back the bag containing the egg of Nirvana on the table: "This is the egg of Nirvana. I think someone must be willing to spend [-] million Reichsmarks to buy it."

"Please listen to me, Mr. Luke." The other party hurriedly stopped: "Although I don't have enough money, I can use other things to make up the price difference. Please believe me, you will definitely think it is worth the money."

Luke didn't really want to leave, he raised his butt and sat back: "I don't even know who you are, so why should I believe you?"

"It was my negligence..." The other party apologized, then lifted the hood that covered his appearance, and introduced himself to Luke: "My name is Egbert, a priest of the Abyss Temple."

Luke asked: "I heard that the Temple of the Abyss is very respected in the Tedgar Hills. How can I believe you if you are so secretive?"

Egbert said in a low voice: "Because of some reasons that cannot be disclosed to the outside world, I don't want too many people to know what I am doing outside the temple. Believe me, I am already taking a very big risk by revealing my identity to you. Nirvana The egg is very important to my research, and I will give you a satisfactory solution."

Luke knew why Egbert was so careful.

Qingkong's plan to alienate the Abyss Temple has a very significant effect.Four abyssal apostles died, and a large number of high-level secrets were known by Qingkong, which meant that there were traitors at the top of the abyss temple.

Egbert is the senior priest of the Abyss Temple, belonging to the level second only to the Abyss Apostle, and is in the most suspected range.

From this point of view...the strategy is useless.

Luke acted on the spot and said to Egbert: "Today's events are completely beyond my expectations. I just want to get the money and continue my adventure career, and I don't want to have any intersection with the Abyss Temple.

Especially in the Abyss Temple, there seems to be something unknown and special happening. "

Egbert immediately appeased Luke for the sake of the Nirvana egg: "Please don't worry, this is a matter inside our Abyss Temple, and you will never be involved.

I can pay 5000 million Reichsmarks first, the adventurer's association's commission, and I will calculate it separately from them, not from the bounty.In addition... I can give you powers that you can never imagine. "

Is it back to the plot again?
Luke showed interest: "What power?"

"Power from the abyss."

Luke frowned involuntarily.

The plot is completely off!

In the game, Egbert only invites players to do experiments related to the Egg of Nirvana, not too much involved with the abyss.

Moreover, the abyss has always been studied by the abyss apostles, and it is a level that the abyss mages cannot touch.

Egbert said so...

Is he lying to me?Or is there a big change inside the Abyss Temple, and the Abyss Apostle allows the Abyss Mages to study the Abyss in depth?

"The abyss..." Luke said with emotion: "Although I don't know much about the abyss, I know it is very, very dangerous."

"Fear comes from the unknown!" Speaking of the abyss, Egbert immediately became a fanatic: "People in the world think the abyss is dangerous because they don't understand the abyss at all. The energy contained in the abyss exceeds all known worlds The sum of energy, the wisdom of the abyss is also the sum of all intelligent creatures.

Only by truly facing the abyss can one realize that all the greatness in the world is inferior to it. "

Luke asked, "Have you ever faced the abyss?"

"I have faced the abyss!" Egbert replied with certainty: "Unlike the apostles of the abyss who opened the door to the abyss and embraced the abyss, I only touched the energy that penetrated from the abyss through the gap opened by the apostles.

That feeling cannot be described in words, and can only be vented through crying bitterly. "

Luke felt that he came to Tedgar Hills to explore the secrets of the Calamity Book, and his ultimate goal was to understand the abyss.Since there is such an opportunity in front of you, you can get in touch with it appropriately.

But don't be too aggressive.

A risk assessment with Clear Sky is also required.

"After listening to your description, I have some curiosity about the abyss. But... I need to think about it."

"How long do you need to think about it?" Egbert was afraid that Luke would run away with the Nirvana egg.

"This... I'm afraid I can't give you an accurate answer. I can assure you that before I make a decision, I will never leave the holy mountain with the egg of Nirvana."

Egbert looked at Luke and saw that he was determined, so he had to say: "Okay, you think about it carefully. But I want to remind you, don't make me wait too long... This is not a threat, but the abyss will not wait you."

"What does it mean?"

Egbert did not answer Luke's inquiry.He put the hood back on and walked away cautiously.

Luke looked at the back of Egbert leaving, and compared him in the previous game.It has changed a lot. It seems that he has really touched the abyss, and the abyss has deeply affected him.
