Mithril Throne of Forgotten Realms

Chapter 99 The Insidious Lich

Seeing that both of them turned their eyes, Fang Yi talked about something that happened in the game.

In the continent of Faerun, where the entire China region is located, there are two areas that are particularly prosperous.One is the surrounding area of ​​Starfall Sea, which is based on trade civilization, and Dragon Coast is also in it; the other is Deep Water City next to Sword Bay - a rich distribution of monster groups, densely packed copies of all levels, and a variety of legendary mission NPs gathered All of these have made Waterdeep City an adventurous holy land that most Faerun players yearn for.

During the public beta, a team of players was adventuring near Waterdeep City. They were suddenly besieged by ferocious lions as they passed by the golden field in the east. When the group was about to be wiped out, they were lucky enough to be rescued by a high-level np mage passing by. .

After everyone escaped from the lion's mouth, they were naturally grateful to the mage, but they didn't expect to trigger the mission on this mage.The players who thought they had started to get lucky were naturally overjoyed. Following the mage's clues, they went all the way to a tomb somewhere in the Golden Wilderness, and it turned out. . .

"How was the result?" The black mountain demon hurriedly asked Fang Yi when he saw that Fang Yi was panting heavily.

"As a result, all the players in that team were annihilated and turned into skeletons. A precious gemstone they obtained in the previous mission was also snatched by the lich in the tomb." Fang Yi looked at the light that was still on not far away. hotel, said with a smile.

"That's because they are not strong enough. What's so strange about that?" The Black Mountain demon looked at the mulberry picker and said indifferently.

On the other hand, the mulberry picker also smiled when he saw that the Black Mountain demon was distracted.It's just that the careful mulberry pickers still found that there were many ominous things in Fang Yi's words, and said with a light smile, "How many levels are those players?"

"Hey, Caisang, you got to the point," Fang Yi said with a smirk, "The average level is 32."[

"Huh? How come?" Hearing Fang Yi's answer, the mulberry picker cried out in surprise.

The Black Mountain demon was still confused, seeing that the mulberry picker had clearly thought of something, he hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

"The lich... One of the prerequisites for the lich's transformation ceremony is that it must be at least full level in life." The mulberry picker obviously also thought that the task encountered by the group of players was a bit strange, "Fifty level."

"Ah!?" The black mountain demon's attention was completely attracted to this story, and he seemed to be very excited at this time. He jumped in front of Fang Yi and started to walk backwards facing Fang Yi, stepping on the metal boots on the stone road. There was a drum-like sound of "click, click", "The person who designed the mission has a problem, how can a team of level 32 fight monsters of level [-]?"

Seeing the moonlight cast on the armor of the female warrior opposite, revealing an ethereal dark white color, and the priest next to him blinking his big eyes and looking at him, Fang Yi felt as if he had returned to the scene of playing in the mountains at night when he was a child. ——How long has it been since I took a quiet walk at night?

"Actually, many old players know about this. The task is automatically evolved by the system mastermind, so of course there will be no problem. It's just a part of their task. The mage who saved them is actually a lich." Fang Yi came back to his senses , took a long breath, and thought of the posts on the forum by the witnesses of the task at that time.

"In the previous adventure, the team of knights obtained a precious gemstone with unknown attributes from a ruin. At that time, these people were actually guarding the gemstone back to Waterdeep City. The ferocious lions on the way were also summoned by the lich. , the purpose is to prevent the team from advancing, and then the Lich will show up to rescue them, and then lure them to his lair."

At this time, the three of Fang Yi had returned to the Sampan and Moss Hotel. Because it was midnight, there were very few players and NPCs, so the mulberry picker and the Black Mountain goblin simply sat near the door in the lobby and listened to Fang Yi telling stories under the moonlight.Fang Yi saw the mulberry picker holding his chin, with a hesitant expression, knowing that the other party had already thought of the key points of the mission,

"That's right. That lich jng is proficient in enchantment. The experience hints everyone got from killing the dire lion are all affected by high-level enchantment, and the things dropped by the monster are some gadgets of the lich himself. As for Why does the lich have to go to such lengths, that’s because the lich is not an enemy.” Fang Yi took the juice brought by the waiter and put it in front of the two girls—God knows why there is such a delicate process in Faerun’s hotel Fang Yi thought of peach juice.

"Later, the players analyzed that the escort mission at that time might have plot restrictions. When everyone arrived at the corresponding location, the Lich event would be triggered. If several people found out that the mage was pretending to be a Lich, or if the Lich attacked directly, they would all It attracts a strong NP refresh from the player's side. However, the players have not met these two trigger conditions, so they just obediently acted like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth."

After listening to Fang Yi's story, the Black Mountain demon pouted and looked at the log beams on the roof of the hall, frowning and wondering what he was thinking.The mulberry picker dragged his cheeks and looked at Fang Yi for a long time, until Fang Yi couldn't help but want to tease the mulberry picker with words like "I'm going to blush if I look at me again", the elf priest finally opened his mouth.

"The lich's mage level is so high, isn't this mission solved?"

"Of course there is a solution!" Fang Yi showed a confident smile, and waved his finger at the Caisang people, "First of all, we don't have to worry about the lich. The old players in Waterdeep City know that there is no such thing as a dire lion in the Golden Plain." Monsters. Besides, the game is for the players after all, in addition to the resistance to increase spell immunity, the illusions caused by enchanting spells in the game are not as perverted as those in fantasy novels, and there will be many logical errors."

"But we are all hindsight," Fang Yi drank the oat wine in the wooden cup, squinted and said, "After all, it is the magic of a legendary mage. If you are not prepared, it should not be too easy~"

"So, are you afraid that there will be some accidents when we spend the night in the Viscount's mansion?" The Black Mountain demon only spoke at this time, and understood what Fang Yi meant by making such a big circle. [

"Although NPs serve the players in the final analysis, there is no game clause saying that they are all good young people." Fang Yi and the mulberry picker looked at each other and smiled at the same time, "This is also the theme of "Miracle". One of the selling points, as for whether it is good or bad, time will tell."

"Okay, you guys go back to your room, go offline and rest for a while, I'll go back and check on the situation in the Viscount's Mansion." Fang Yi stood up, pulled the weapon at his waist, and tested the smoothness of the scabbard, "As for Castle or something, there will be a chance in the future.”

The two also stood up, said goodbye to Fang Yi, and walked up the creaking stairs to the second floor.Just halfway through the walk, the Black Mountain demon at the back turned around, and smiled mischievously at Fang Yi, who was standing at the door of the hotel watching the two of them, "Remember what you said, we will wait to see when you can have a O castle~"

Fang Yi froze for a moment, wondering whether the words of Black Mountain Little Demon had any meaning in his head. After a second, Fang Yi realized that he was thinking too much, so he turned around and left the hotel, and walked towards the Viscount's Mansion.

Valier is a viscount, and he can be regarded as the number one person in Ximen City, but the guards of the mansion are only in their early twenties, and it is not difficult for thieves at the eighteenth level to get in, which makes Fang Yi have to suspect that the system is It's not secretly increasing the difficulty of your own tasks.

After Fang Yi subdued the assassin in the Viscount's Mansion, he completed a small step of the mission, and the experience gained allowed him to rise to level 17 by 13%.The experience rewards of serial missions are much higher than those of ordinary missions, which is why Fang Yi can keep his level at the average level despite running around.

In a stealth state, he was wandering around the back door of the Viscount's Mansion. Fang Yi had to be on guard against the possible second and third waves of assassins, and always pay attention to whether there were any suspicious people coming in and out of the Viscount's Mansion.After all, no one knows what kind of bird this Valriel is, and Fang Yi doesn't want to be stabbed in the back.

Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened. Until dawn, the Viscount's Mansion was quiet all the time.When the agreed time came, the mulberry picker and the black mountain demon gathered at the agreed place on time. Fang Yi gave them some instructions and started to split up.

Valriel was completely dressed in chain armor, poking the ground with the long sword in his hand, and looked at the three people in front of him with a serious expression.Our protagonist is looking at the decoration of the hall calmly, thinking about how much such a suite in the game is worth.

"It's the person with the mask of the night," Valier said in a slightly hoarse voice, with a tired look on his brows, obviously he didn't sleep well last night.

After getting the expected answer, Fang Yi looked up at the Viscount in front of him, and asked in a low voice, "What is the Viscount going to do?"

"I can't do anything." Valier stood up and adjusted the heavy chain armor on his body. The rattling sound of metal friction was extremely loud in the quiet hall. "Even the merchant union will not take it easy The Mask of Night attacks, and that will cause chaos in the city."

The Merchant Guild actually refers to the actual ruler of Ximen Port, a guild composed of aristocrats from several of the most powerful merchant families, controlling half of Ximen Port—while the other half belongs to Dark Night Mask.

"I understand your situation," Fang Yi took two steps forward, looking at the unwilling Valier confidently, "I can do this for you, the price you need to pay is just some information .”

Viscount Valier's eyes lit up, he leaned forward slightly, staring intently at the human thieves in front of him, "Tell me your conditions, adventurer!"

***

Fang Yi stepped out of the back door of the Viscount's mansion, looked back at the solid stone wall, and let out a long sigh of relief.After contacting the mulberry picker, he walked to where Turner was.

The mulberry picker and the black mountain goblin didn't find much information on the forum before, but now they have learned some information about Viscount Valier from the old slippery man, and they are relaying it to Fang Yi.
