The Age of Machines

Chapter 65 No.60 Five Tasks in Progress

Puli's tavern is in a Maca town not far south of the imperial capital.

Beixi walked to the teleportation array.

Even though it was night, the number of players continued to increase.Lively night, but more feeling than the day!The colorful neon lights are flashing, and there is a sense of prosperity wherever you go.

This is the prosperity and hustle and bustle of the imperial capital!

The town of Maca is crowded with people, and it is also very lively.

Players can't go to the forest wilderness and other places to perform tasks at night, so most of them are to accept some tasks between NPCs to relieve boredom.

The dark night in the game actually only exists for 6 hours because of the last system update.

The 6 hours in the game is only 3 hours of real sleep time!For players, it is still acceptable!
Players who really have nothing to do can go to the arena.

The arena is like the city that never sleeps, there are countless players there from morning till night.If Beixi really had nothing to do, he wouldn't mind hanging around the arena for a while.

However, it's not like there's nothing else to do besides the arena.

In order to increase the entertainment of players, the system has opened entertainment facilities such as casinos, karaoke halls, and large playgrounds.

Players have many choices during these 6 hours.

Beixi came to the tavern.

Pushing the door open, he was stopped by a big man.

The man has a height of 1.9 meters, and his huge body is comparable to a warrior of the orc tribe!Compared with Beixi's 5 meter tall man and big man
It's just not enough to watch.

He wore checked gray breeches, and only a dark blue vest topped his chest and exposed his arms.With a stubble on his chin and a braid on his head, he looked at Beixi and smiled helplessly.

"This is not a place for children to come."

Beixi blinked and ignored him.Want to move on!

The big man hooked Beixi's collar with one finger, and with a gentle pull, Beixi returned to the original place.

The big man crouched down, trying to look as kind as possible.

"Are you lost?"

Beixi frowned. "I'm not a child!! I'm an adult!"

The big man is embarrassing.Obviously don't believe Beixi's rhetoric!

Beixi expressionless, explained coldly: "I'm really an adult! I'm here to find Kraft, for Puli's whereabouts."

After speaking, he looked straight at the big man.

The big man's face changed when he heard Puli.Looking Beixi up and down, she was silent for a moment, not stopping her anymore.

"You come with me."

Beixi quietly followed him into the tavern.

Now is the busiest time.In addition to NPCs, there are some players in the tavern!
Seeing Beixi coming in with the big man, he cast a strange look.

"Man." The big man walked over to the bar and shouted at the man who was cleaning the bar.

"Hey, Jin, what's the matter?"

It turned out that the big man was called Ah Jin!

"Give this kid a glass of milk to the guest." Ah Jin pointed to Beixi behind him, patted the buddy behind the bar, and walked straight to the second floor of the tavern.

The guy took a look at Beixi, which was not even as high as the bar.

"Well, my name is Curris."

Beixi nodded.

"Milk?" His expression was a little distorted.Come to the tavern for milk? ?

Beixi climbed onto the chair and looked at the man opposite him with a straight face. "Milk, thank you."

"."

There must be something unusual about this mission with extra experience.If the player does not treat the task more carefully and attentively, the extra reward will slip away from them.

"Your milk."

Curris took the milk and placed it in front of Beixi.Then he started to wipe the wine bottle again!

"Curris, do you know Puli?"

Curris paused and glanced at Beixi.

"Sorry, I don't know that man."

Beixi looked a little strange.Sometimes the quest lines designed by the system really want people to complain about such an obvious expression, such an obvious loophole in speech. If the player does not find this when accepting the quest, Beixi will have to complain about the brain damage.

"How do you know he's a man? I don't seem to have mentioned Puli's gender, right? How can you be so sure that the person named Puli is a man?"

Beixi took a sip of milk, and looked at Curris amusedly.

Curris frowned, stopped and looked at Beixi.

"Please don't hide what you know. You must be worried about Puli, right?"

The tavern was originally owned by Pooley.

He disappeared inexplicably a week ago, and then the new tavern owner and Puli's friend took over the tavern.

Curris and Ah Jin had previously worked for Puli in the tavern.

Curris hesitated a bit.I don't know if I should trust Beixi~!

Beixi observed his expression and spoke again.

"Can I help you."

Kuris saw the firmness in Beixi's eyes, and the last hesitation in his heart disappeared.

They do need help!And it is very much needed! !

Ding, you have gained the trust of Curris, and the experience reward is 120900.

coming.

"Just two weeks ago Pooley said he was going to find a mix that would make the best cider in the world. He said that mix would be like pearls."

"Ah Jin and I don't agree with him going alone. Not long ago, there were always things missing in the tavern for no reason! Even Archie has become unusual!"

"Archie is my kitten. It is always very sensitive to some bad things! Me and Ajin suspect that there is an evil thing XZ in the tavern, and he has malice towards Puli."

"He insisted on going alone, and Ah Jin and I couldn't stay. As a result, Puli hasn't come back for two weeks!"

"But Kraft suddenly came with a transfer letter from the tavern and became the new tavern owner. I suspect Puli's disappearance has something to do with him!"

Beixi listened quietly.

At this time, Ah Jin had already come down from upstairs.

"Kafe said he wanted to see you."

Bei Xi nodded, and followed Ah Jin upstairs.

There are only two rooms on the second floor.

Ah Jin opened the door to the room on the left, and Bei Xi followed in.

Kraft is a big fat man, with the kind of rich appearance of an ancient member.Gives a bad impression!

"I heard from Ah Jin that you have a way to find Puli's whereabouts?"

Seeing Beixi, Kraft sized him up and asked.

"I need to know specific things."

Kraft leaned back on the chair, his eyes seemed to be very small. When he squinted like that, he couldn't see his inner thoughts clearly.But for some reason, Beixi could feel that his gaze was far away, and his expression was also unpredictable.

"Pulli and I have been friends since childhood, and I will not harm him."

When he spoke again, Kraft directly stated his determination not to harm Puli.

"That guy has an unusual purpose."

that guy?

Bei Xi turned his head, looked at Kraft and then at Ah Jin.That guy means Curris?

"Pulley found me two weeks ago and signed this assignment with me. Said that if something happens to him, let me take this book and look at this pub first, don't let this guy Curris The conspiracy has succeeded!"

"I thought the old man was just joking. But I didn't expect that he disappeared the day after signing the transfer agreement." Kraft held his head with a sad expression on his face.

"Ajin and I issued a request to the adventurers of the major guilds to find people, but now, countless adventurers have come, and there is no way to find Puli."

"I hope you're the last one. Please help us get Puli back!"

The rhetoric is almost different.

Beixi looked at Kraft, then at Ajin.

One with worry on his face and one with anxiety in his eyes.

Who is lying?
"Recently, have you noticed anything unusual in the store?"

Ah Jin and Kafu looked at each other.

Kraft nodded. "It wants to harm me!"

Ah Jin also added next to it: "That thing has evil power. Although it is very weak, it is a threat to us. If it grows bigger, the whole town will be threatened."

Beixi stroked her chin.

This task is interesting.

"Do you know Archie?"

The two looked at each other and shook their heads.

"I don't know, I've never heard of this person." Ah Jin shook his head, saying that he didn't know him.

"A buddy who worked here before?" Kraft looked at Beixi suspiciously.

The conversation between the two sides also ended here.In the end, Ah Jin sent Beixi downstairs!

"Ah, I seem to have forgotten something upstairs!"

Ah Jin was taken aback, "What is it?"

"My necklace was given to me by my mother. It's very important!" Beixi looked up at Ah Jin with anxiety in his eyes.

Ah Jin scratched his head, "I'll go up and look for you."

Beixi nodded repeatedly.

When Ah Jin walked up, he disappeared around the corner.Beixi walked to the bar and looked at Kuris.

"Can I meet Archie?"

Curris was taken aback for a moment, a look of unnaturalness flashed across his face.

"Can't you?"

At this time, footsteps came from the second floor.

"I'll see you at 8 Rooney Street tomorrow at 210 o'clock." Curris whispered, and then continued to wipe the wine bottle in a muffled voice.

Beixi held the milk and drank it as if nothing had happened.

"Sorry, I didn't find it."

"I should say sorry. I thought too seriously when I came out, and forgot to take it off and put it in my pocket!" Beixi took out his necklace from his pocket, with an apologetic expression on his face.

Ah Jin stared at Beixi carefully, confirming that Beixi was not pretending.Slightly smiled and said, "I don't blame you!"

After finishing speaking, he sent Beixi out of the tavern.

"Adventurer."

Beixi turned her head and looked at him inexplicably.

"This is for you." Ah Jin suddenly stuffed a small thing into Bei Xi's white and tender hands.

Beixi looked down.

A system beep sounded in my ear.

Ding, you got Puli's ring, which may be an important quest clue.Congratulations on gaining extra experience +209880!

"Please believe me. Puli gave it to me before he left! I believe it will be very helpful to you!" Ah Jin looked at Beixi seriously, with a very serious tone.

This is the best proof of relationship!It is also proof that Puli trusts him!
Bei Xi held the ring tightly, nodded and said nothing.

Under Ah Jin's watchful eyes, he gradually went away.

Ah Jin didn't return to the tavern until Bei Xi's figure disappeared from sight.

At this time, Beixi came out from the corner again, with a playful smile on his lips.
