return to edgar

() Seeing that the selection was completed, Gonzalez dragged Link towards the front desk.

"Didn't you say you won't accept the mission?" Link muttered in a low voice.

"First help you join the regiment, there is no preferential treatment for individual mercenaries who receive missions."

Joining the group... Can they finish talking at once, some inexplicable words pop up from time to time.

Looking at the service staff in charge of reception at the front desk, Link's expression became embarrassing.

There are three different types of women sitting in the front desk. From left to right, they can be judged as Lolita, Yujie, and Married Wife. Is this also a bad taste set by the system for players?

No matter how good-looking it is, it is still an NPC. After a glance, Link's interest immediately shifted to the mercenaries who were in small groups or alone. .

"Hello, what can I do for you?" The red-haired Lolita smiled sweetly, showing two small canine teeth.

"Mercenaries join the regiment." Su Wu's voice floated out from under his lowered hood, neither high nor low, just enough to be heard.

"Is this the first time you're applying or you already have a team." The black-haired sister Yu, who was speaking this time, had a cold expression in stark contrast to Lori.

"There is a team, sword and magic." Following Su Wu's announcement of the team name, the black-haired woman quickly flipped through the ten-centimeter-thick book in her hand.The quill inserted in the ink bottle slowly floated into the air, and Link's attention was immediately attracted.

A moving quill, can it still write?

"Name, Country, Occupation."

Su Wu pushed Link with his elbow, and he came forward belatedly.

"Link, no surname, Altyn family, warrior." After thinking about it, Link finally reported a territory next to Mount Horacio. By.As for his profession, since he was here to investigate the disappearance of a druid, it was obviously inappropriate to choose a ranger, so he chose a warrior.

The quill began to write on a stack of blank parchment 'swish, swish, swish'.

"Confirm the addition of sword and magic." Even with the question, the attitude of the black-haired Yujie remained unchanged.

The parchment with 'Sword and Magic' flew up by itself and floated in front of Link.

"Prick your finger." Su Wu grabbed an iron pillow from the box placed on the table, and asked Link to pierce his finger to sign the contract.

"What is this? I won't sign unless I explain clearly." Link asked for an explanation.

"It's not that I want to sell you, what are you afraid of." Su Wu grabbed Link's finger and stabbed it before he could react, and blood burst out immediately.

Su Wu's small move shocked Link as much as the sound insulation technique he used before. He is no longer an ordinary person who just entered the game. After a few days of training, his physical fitness has increased in all aspects.It is reasonable for Gonzalez, who is stronger than the burly and master-level, but why is a mage so agile?

"It's just a proof of joining the regiment, and you will be paid based on this for doing missions in the future." Gonzalez shook his head, and mouthed to Su Wu, "Your credit is bankrupt, I told you not to do this."

Su Wu was unmoved, but just looked straight at Link.

Well, these two people will never harm me...

Link pressed his handprint on the contract, and the scroll flicked and flew into the cabinet behind the three waitresses.

After finishing their work, the three of them returned to the rented room on the second floor of the hotel.

"Okay, it's time for me to get off too. Do you continue to guide him, or..." Gonzales, wearing armor, lay down on a single bed near the door, ready to return to reality.

"We have to go offline too. This is Novice Village, so there is no need to keep guards." Su Wu chose the bed in the middle and reserved the innermost place for Link.

Calculating the time, it should be ten o'clock in the morning in reality, and it's time to go out.Link tilted his head and found that Gonzales and Su Wu were both breathing evenly and fell asleep.

Damn, did I make a mistake, so fast?

It took a while to wake up in reality, and Link was extremely depressed. Compared with those two, his time to fall asleep was called insomnia.

Su Wu had already gotten up and was sitting in the living room eating noodles, when he saw him get up and point to another bowl of noodles that was badly battered.

"I thought you would wake up right away, but I didn't expect you to delay for so long."

He wiped his face casually, he was hungry, and he didn't care about the taste, so he just picked up the noodles and ate them.

After a brief silence, Su Wu put the bowl on the table.

"Don't ask me why I lied to you?"

"Isn't it to save your brother?" Link's rhetorical question stopped Su Wu.

It is impossible to say that there is no anger. Link is not a saint, but he also knows that Su Wu lied to himself that he would not be able to get rid of it because he wanted to save others. The two brothers had a good relationship since they were young. It's a total deception.Anyway, he has been involved, and as a friend, there is no reason to stand by.

"Speaking first, I hate others forcing me to do things I don't want or dislike. You can just say what you think in the future."

"Understood." For Link to forgive himself so easily, Su Wu really didn't expect that his impression of Link was still that of a lonely junior high school student who hung shoulder to shoulder with his brother ten years ago.Time flies, and the youthful boy from back then has grown up, it seems that he has to get to know him again.

There was another brief silence. After Link finished his noodles, Su Wu asked him to go back to the provincial capital, saying that his parents called in the morning and he would go home today. Don't come to your door, just contact me with a mobile phone.

Link expressed that he could understand Su Wu's painstaking efforts, and after asking for the number, he took a package and diary and took a taxi and left.

As soon as he returned to the rental house, he couldn't wait to turn on the computer, and the place where the character stayed was changed from the forest tree house to the hotel. The attribute of the character panel was displayed as lv3, and the strength, agility, intelligence, physique, and charm were all the same 4, up to 16 with only perceived surprise.

How did these numbers come out? Wouldn't it be superstitious?

Link's mouth twitched, and he clicked on the map. Only the Guardian Land and River Valley Town were marked with names, and everything else was gray. The information in the diary shows four characters, Hull, Iris, Su, and Gonzalez.Everyone's profile picture is in a row except name, race and occupation? ? ? , Link's interest was greatly reduced, and he turned to the task.The yellow one is [Looking for the Missing Druid], which should be the main task, and the blue ones are [Boundary Patrol] and [Maintaining the Barrier] below, which should be tasks that can be completed repeatedly...

Returning to the character panel, there is nothing on the equipment column, only a line of words is used to identify a set of mountain folk clothing, and the money column shows 30 silver, which should be the bag of money that Birdman gave Link.The talent is indeed like Gonzalez, showing three pages. In the middle is a deer-shaped avatar exuding white light. The color se seems to indicate the current talent. The two gray sub-talents are crossed double swords and bows and arrows. .

Link clicked on the white deer representing the Son of Nature with the mouse, and what appeared was the talent, which was exactly the same as what he saw in the inheritance. There were three and two blank rings on the talent of the warrior and the ranger respectively, obviously they hadn't learned yet. to any skill.

Link couldn't help muttering, he didn't learn a single skill after studying shooting for so many days, it seems that he should ask Su Wu how to get the skills that are not his main talent.

Retreating to the character panel, Link clicked on the sideline and profession at the bottom of the list. Although he selected it in the game, there was nothing marked on the panel. Could it be that it has not been activated or does it need to be manufactured?

Anyway, idle is idle, why not go back and check Yuan Ye's whereabouts, Link lay down on the bed, and returned to the illusion.

A day has passed in the game, and it is night now. Link walked out of the tavern. The streets at night were much deserted than in the daytime. He suddenly remembered that he hadn't been to the Suling Temple in Hegu Town yet. That was the main storyline.

"Su Ling Temple?" The old man in the grocery store looked up at Link, saw that his skin was so dark that he swallowed the complaint, "Half a year ago, there was no druid to preside over the blessing, and everyone here Had to run to Eden."

Under the guidance of the locals, Link found the Suling Temple located in the residential area. It looks like a tall tree with a hollow trunk that looks a little creepy at night.

Link bent down and drilled in, and the artificially excavated stairs continued downward.After walking about ten meters, the space suddenly opened up. Under the lighting of the oil lamp hanging from the top, it can be seen clearly that this is a circular hole dug, and a jar similar to a shrine is placed in the middle.

The ground is clean and dust-free, the oil lamp is not extinguished, and the druid has been missing for half a year. Who is taking care of this place?

Suddenly, an old voice came to mind in the cave.

"who is it?"

"The mountain people living on Mount Horacio want to come to pray for blessings." Link lied without changing his face.

Footsteps came from the dark room on the right, and an old woman with white hair came out.While observing Link through the light, she said, "You came at a bad time, child, the druid here has something to leave."

After confirming that the old woman had no aura of undead, Link transformed into a white deer in front of her, "Rey is missing, and the other two druids who came to investigate are also missing. Why are you hiding it?"

"Oh..." The old woman's eyes widened suddenly, and she knelt tremblingly, "It's Isol's emissary, I'm not lying. Lord Rey said he was going to investigate the cemetery outside the town, but never came back. The other two The druid is gone, too."

cemetery?Link suddenly thought of the undead. Could the druid's disappearance be related to those guys?

"Don't tell anyone about this, and don't reveal that I've been here." Link knew that he couldn't ask anything if he asked the old woman. After admonishing the old woman, he withdrew, and returned to the human form the moment he returned to the ground, making sure that there was nothing on the street. Pedestrians left.

Next, it's time to go around the cemetery.

Worried that something might happen, Link went back to the tavern on purpose, borrowed a pen and paper from the waiter and left a message for Su Wu, saying that he went to the cemetery outside the town, and if he didn't return for a few days, he would go there to save people.
