I can't be an NPC

Chapter 177 Facing the Bronze Dragon

When Li Wen heard the news from Helen, his mood was complicated.

A person of this level is like a nuclear bomb that will explode at any time. Even if he just gets close, Li Wen will feel uncomfortable all over his body, as if there are countless thorns sticking to his skin, which can cause unimaginable damage to him at any time. .

Especially when he was secretly doing actions against his plan, this mentality was even more serious.

What is he here for?

He is not human, and the altar is useless to him, so he just came to see this altar that caused his plan to be delayed.

Or do you want to destroy?Directly destroy this altar that made humans decide to delay his plan.

Or will he find out that the altar was actually made by Helen himself?

Thoughts like these flooded Li Wen's mind in an instant.

Most importantly, Helen said that he wanted to see Li Wen, the human being who first discovered the effect of the altar, with his own eyes.

This was the reason why Li Wen was so worried.

So worried, Li Wen slapped another trigger spell on his body to protect against energy damage.

Physical attacks have a lot of defense value provided by the sword song technique and the shield technique, but the spells are more difficult to deal with, and can only rely on basic attribute immunity or attribute resistance corresponding to the damage.

Fortunately, this is what Li Wen has been doing. A trigger spell can last for ten days, and the trigger spell can be released twice a day. Li Wen now has twenty kinds of spell effects that will take effect under different settings.

It's a pity that the only more advanced spell is the stone skin spell picked up from the two elf ladies, otherwise the ability to save life would be stronger.

After making all the preparations, Li Wencai followed Helen to the altar, and saw the human form of the legendary bronze dragon.

There is no one else around the altar, which is the request of the legendary bronze dragon. Unless he is willing, he doesn't like to meet too many people when everyone knows that he is a bronze dragon.

So there was only one figure by the altar.

A... senile old man.

Messy white beard, messy white hair, wearing an off-white linen robe, the corners of the robe dragging on the ground even have some mossy green.

The whole person looks like an ordinary old man in a slum.

This is the legendary bronze dragon?

Li Wen subconsciously looked at Helen, seeking confirmation.

Helen nodded.

This is the legendary bronze dragon.

Li Wen narrowed his eyes, feeling a little strange.

The dwarf king should also be his incarnation.

But the image of the dwarf king I saw was... a little bit different from the image of the old man in front of me.

The dwarf king was imposing and majestic, even if he was a guest in the main city of the elves, he showed some kind of domineering like a master.

But now...it seems even a little distressing.

"Actually, I could have destroyed it."

As if he heard the approaching footsteps of the two, the old man said softly.

The voice is deep and clear, but also flat, like ordinary chat.

While speaking, the old man stroked the corner of the altar.

Li Wen didn't say anything, and neither did Helen.

Facing a legendary bronze dragon who was even stronger than Helen's teacher, neither of them knew how to strike up a conversation.

The stereotypes in that system are inappropriate when facing such non-human powerhouses.

Fortunately, the legendary bronze dragon didn't expect the two to strike up a conversation.

"But destroying it will only make you more eager to find the next altar..."

As he spoke, he slowly turned around and looked at Li Wen.

"You were the first to discover the effect of this altar?"

Even though the old man in front of him didn't show any oppression, his well-known identity made Li Wen tense all over.

"Yes."

"Are you afraid of me?"

Seeing Li Wen's performance, the old man sighed softly, "That's why I don't want to meet you when you know my identity."

It's inevitable, but it's also normal.

The old man said back to the altar itself, "Do you know that this altar broke my big business?"

"Ok?"

Li Wen made a voice of incomprehension.

There were three points of panic, three points of grievance, and four points of bewilderment in the voice.

The acting skills endowed by the art of sword song allow Li Wen to control his emotions to the utmost.

Seeing Li Wen's appearance, the old man shook his head and smiled.

"Of course, I know it has nothing to do with you. You humans are always like this. When you meet the benefits that are right in front of you, you don't care about the disaster you may encounter next."

"Casualty?"

"Of course it's a catastrophe."

The old man seemed tired from standing, so he simply sat down on a step of the altar and patted the steps beside him.

"You can sit too."

I'm not going... Li Wen wanted to stay away from the other party.

Seeing that Li Wen and Helen didn't move, Glixis didn't force it. He knew that his own strength was always frightening.

His pair of eyes that looked a little cloudy just looked at the ground in front of him in a daze, and he began to speak as if talking to himself.

"The longer it drags on, the deeper the impact of the blood frenzy will be. It's time to try to clear it up, but it will be a bone-piercing pain. But it doesn't matter, as long as it hurts, you will know that you are wrong."

Li Wen couldn't help asking: "But why do you think that doing what you said will solve the impact of the blood frenzy?"

Seeing that Li Wen seemed to be interested in discussing, the old man became a little bit more energetic, and the turbid eyes began to sparkle.

"Of course it can be solved. The blood frenzy is essentially the wantonness of desire. The cowardly desire to be strong, and the short-lived desire to live forever, but these are not the right way. If you want to be strong, you can persist in training yourself and learning knowledge; if you want to live long, you can strictly control your diet. , Keep exercising. It is an evil act to count on plunder to make yourself stronger and immortal."

"But your methods are just as bloody."

"Cutting off dead limbs to prevent them from continuing to absorb limited nutrients is life-saving, not persecution. What remains is a truly healthy body."

"But strict prohibitions can only stop behavior, not thoughts. When a mother prohibits children from doing all kinds of playful things, then the children will only learn to do it without telling her."

"The initial period of the ban is naturally difficult to adapt to, but as long as the pain period is over, the long-term self-demand will make everyone's heart and action unite. I like justice, and justice will make people feel happy. You humans also like justice, and that will make everyone happy. Every partner becomes incredibly reliable. So why not?"

"But I heard that the residents in your territory are very tired, and there is no laughter in the whole city. Does this mean that they don't like justice as you define?"

"This is just the period of pain. They are trying to fight against the desires in their hearts. When they adapt, my city-state will become the most beautiful city-state in the world."

"Then have you ever thought that your pursuit of justice is also a kind of... desire?"

"Then I can only hope that this desire is shared by everyone, so that after I die, the world can still maintain its best appearance."

have to.

Li Wen closed his mouth.

Glixis also seemed to have lost interest in talking to a stubborn human being like Li Wen.

"You are easily affected by the blood frenzy, be careful, be careful...your own heart."

After saying this to Li Wen with concern, the legendary bronze dragon stood up.

Turning around in front of Li Wen, his body rapidly swelled and deformed.

A ribbed and grooved crown defines the head, from which curved horns protrude, echoing the spines protruding from its lower jaw and jaw.The scales are smooth, dark and bronze in color.

The pupils staring at Li Wen showed the appearance of dark green jewels, and even shone green in this sun-dappled jungle.

"In any case, the final moment is coming, and the desire to go berserk has been integrated into the blood, which will allow you humans to make the right choice."

Looking at the back of the bronze dragon flying away into the sky, Li Wen whispered softly.

"Actually, I've already hit it."

And... the last moment is indeed coming.

"Huh~ just leave like this?"

It wasn't until after Glixis left that Helen let out a sigh of relief, looking at Li Wen in disbelief.

"How dare you?"

Li Wen shrugged.

"Just say what you want... But, it seems that he didn't notice the abnormality of the altar?"

Helen looked at the altar with a look of joy in her eyes.

"Isn't it normal that he didn't find out? He just has a lot of experience, and his ability to cast spells is mostly natural ability. When it comes to understanding and using spells, he is generally not as good as human legends or even fourth-order mages."

Having said that, the Legendary Bronze Dragon really didn't find anything unusual, which made Helen completely relieved.

only……

"Look at what he means, the critical point is approaching."

……

Coincidentally, the actions of the players are coming to an end.

The originally scheduled five-day mission took only a little over four days after the final frenzied sprint.

In the afternoon of the penultimate day, Li Wen, who had been overseeing the work, received the reward from the dwarf player.

"My lord, the lunar polishing project is officially completed, please accept it!"

Over the past few days, Li Wen has discovered that it is useless to simply knock the Demon Heart Mine off the surface of the Moon of Frenzy.

If it is useful, let alone other people, it should have a practical effect on yourself.

but.

It's as if Mad Moon itself is a signal amplifier, and the Felheart Mine is the source of the noise used to pollute everyone.

Only by taking the Demon Heart Mine completely away from the surface of the Mad Moon can the effects of the Blood Frenzy be completely ended.

So, one more... opening ceremony?

But in front of him, behind the dwarf players, a group of players stared at Li Wen with bright eyes, although they were exhausted.

There are two words written in the eyes——

reward... reward... reward...

Li Wen smiled and said to the players.

"The Chosen Ones, please leave the venue and wait, the rewards are being settled..."
