  Chapter 207 Lienia

After that, Duanmu Huai returned to the God's Tower again. This tall tower was sealed by a thick stone gate. Of course, it was no problem for Duanmu Huai to push the stone gate open. When he went up the stairs, When I came to the top of the tower again, a different scene appeared before my eyes.

   Those **** were still buried in the central ring at the top of the tower, but this time, between their two fingers, Duanmu Huai saw a shining mark that was the same as the engraving on the back of his hand. He stepped forward, stretched out his hand to touch the imprint, and soon, he saw that imprint shattered, turning into golden light and blending into the back of Duanmuhuai's hand.

   At the same time, Duanmuhuai felt a warm current in his body, and then a line of system prompts appeared in front of his eyes again.

  【Grek's Great Rune (Activated)】

  【This big rune is called the center of gravity ring, located in the center of the Elden ring. King Geoffrey of Elden and his descendants—the Golden Clan is the first demigod to appear (all attributes +5)]

not bad.

  Looking at the system introduction in front of him, Duanmu Huai frowned. The artifact with all attributes +5 is hard to come across even in the later game. I didn't expect that I got such a weapon directly? Having said that, such a powerful artifact has such a weak holder.

  But...Grek...Governley...Godwin...

  The co-authors of this family are all surnamed Ge.

   I wonder if there is Ge You?

  Thinking about insignificant questions in his mind, Duanmuhuai opened his property interface and took a look.

   Other attributes don't matter, the only thing he cares about is...

  【Charm: 1 (locked)】【Communication-3】【Aura of Fear LV1】

   Well, sure enough, it still can’t be changed.

Except for the [Charm] that Duanmu Huai could not change, all other attributes have been increased. [Strength] has been increased from 21 points to 26 points, [Agility] has been increased from 4 to 9, and [Physique] has been increased from 18. It's 23. [Intelligence] increased from 18 to 23, and [Perception] increased from 8 to 13.

  According to the attack and defense calculation formula of the soul card, Duanmuhuai's current attack is equal to 26 points of strength + 23 points of intelligence = 49 = 4 points of attack, 23 points of constitution + 9 points of agility = 32 = 3 points of defense...

  Well, it would be perfect if it could be more attractive, but it's not bad as it is now.

  However...for Duanmuhuai, the unexpected bonus also has unexpected benefits...um...

   Duanmu Huai stared at a certain attribute among them, and was silent for a moment.

  Unfortunately, the monsters in the world shards don't add experience, so they can't be upgraded. Otherwise, you can try that trick...Let's talk about it later.

However, just when Duanmuhuai was about to leave, a scene that was beyond his expectation happened suddenly—the **** that were there like dead people twitched suddenly, and then Duanmuhuai heard a sound that seemed to be Ruo Wu screamed like a wailing, and the next moment, those **** returned to the soil like this, disappearing without a trace.

"………How is this going?"

  Looking at the scene in front of him, Duanmu Huai frowned. For some reason, he always had a bad feeling...

After that, Duanmuhuai left Stonewell City and returned to the dilapidated hut. Little Red Riding Hood was still sitting there quietly. At first, Duanmuhuai thought that he would spend a lot of time talking, but he didn't expect that when Little Red Riding Hood took over the one in Duanmuhuai's hand, After the strange black ball, he seemed to understand something, and suddenly burst into tears.

   Then, Little Red Riding Hood seemed to think of something, she raised her head and looked at Duanmu Huai.

  "I... want to change, everyone believes in me, even if I can't do anything now, I think I can still do something in the future."

   Having said this, Little Red Riding Hood stood up and lowered her head to Duanmuhuai.

   "Thank you, Iron Warrior, I will find my way."

After saying this, Little Red Riding Hood turned around and left. Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders as he watched her disappearing back. Roger, who caught his gaze, greeted him with a smile.

   "Ah, you are back, so judging by your appearance, you should have successfully defeated Gregor and obtained the Great Rune?"

   "A weak chicken, not worth mentioning."

   Duanmu Huai shook his head and walked in front of Roger.

   "What about you? Did you find what you were looking for?"

   "Found it."

   Roger smiled wryly, then shook his head.

   "It's just that I paid some price... But for me, it's worth it."

   Speaking of this, Roger hesitated for a moment, then looked at Duanmuhuai again.

   "I have one thing to ask you, brave Iron Warrior."

"What's up?"

"Remember the night of the assassination I told you before? In fact, just now, I investigated a clue. In the library of the Rhea Lucaria Academy of Magic, there is a clue about the cemetery of the black knife assassin. , if possible, can you please help me go to the library and investigate? Perhaps, we can use this to find the death rune."

"No problem at all."

  Hearing Roger's request, Duanmuhuai nodded immediately. In fact, Duanmuhuai had already set his sights on Death Rune while listening to Roger's story. It's just a pity that Roger didn't have any further clues at the time. Originally, Duanmuhuai planned to investigate after this. Now that Roger has clues, of course he won't refuse.

  So, after confirming the direction from Roger, Duanmu Huai passed through Stonewell City again and continued to move forward.

  This area called Lienia is completely different from before. Most of the entire area is soaked in water, which looks like a large swamp.

  But for Duanmuhuai, the most disgusting thing here is...

   "Whoosh!!!"

  A water arrow whizzed out and hit Duanmu Huai's body straightly. The powerful impact even made Duanmu Huai tilt his body involuntarily. Then he roared, and the jetpack behind him exploded again, and he jumped up with Duanmuhuai, and flew forward through the jungle, and then the hammer in Duanmuhuai's hand whizzed down, hitting a head that looked even bigger than a crocodile. , on the back of a huge lobster that is four or five meters long!

   "Crack!"

The thick carapace was completely shattered the moment it was hit. Before the lobster could make any further moves, Duanmu Huai directly stretched out his hand, grabbed the shrimp line from its back and pulled it hard, directly slamming the lobster full of filth. The shrimp line of the thing was pulled out, and at the same time the lobster collapsed heavily on the ground without moving.

   "Boom!"

  However, before Duanmu Huai could breathe a sigh of relief, the ground behind him suddenly rolled, and then a lobster quickly emerged from it, clamping Duanmu Huai's body with a pair of tongs, trying to cut it off in the middle. But Duanmuhuai was not easy to provoke, he let out a roar, and threw the hammer in his hand forward, smashing the lobster's head instantly, and the lobster trembled for a moment, and then turned into a corpse.

   "I never thought that a lobster would be so disgusting."

   Looking fiercely at the lobster's corpse in front of him, Duanmu Huai also looked depressed. To say that in this area, what disgusts him the most is that these large lobsters look like giant lobsters that have been mutated by nuclear radiation. They usually hide in the soil and cannot be seen at all. Get out and attack, even if you stay away from it, this thing will shoot deadly water guns from its claws to attack.

   If Duanmuhuai's power armor was not strong enough, it would have been penetrated by these **** lobsters long ago.

  Greek might be even harder to hit if he catches this thing's claws!

   And this lobster can't be eaten... It's not such a big pot to cook it!

   Just when Duanmuhuai shook his head and was about to move on, suddenly, a timid voice came.

   "The one over there...the one over there..."

"Um?"

  Hearing this voice, Duanmu Huai turned his head and saw a figure waving towards him on the pavilion not far away.

   "Could you please come to me?"

   "???"

   Duanmu Huai turned around and came to the pavilion, and saw in the stone pavilion, a woman wearing a green robe and blond hair. She seemed to be a little hunchbacked, and stood there uneasy, looking at Duanmu Huai pitifully.

   "Do you need something from me?"

   "Hi, first time meeting..."

  The woman saluted Duanmu Huai very respectfully and cautiously, and then spoke.

"It's like this, soldier, I was traveling on the orders of my master... but I was attacked by a gangster... Can I ask you one thing? In fact, the gangster took my important necklace, I want you to help me get it back...ah, of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you..."

"Where is he?"

   "Not far ahead, there is a hut, and he is there."

"Oh well."

   Duanmuhuai thought for a while, then nodded.

   Anyway, it's on the way, just walk over and have a look.

  Following the direction pointed by the woman, Duanmu Huai strode forward again. Soon, he saw a dilapidated stone house in the middle of the swamp not far away, not only that...

   "Huh? Huh??"

   Just as Duanmuhuai approached the stone house, he suddenly smelled a strong fragrance!

  This is the smell of... crayfish! ?

  When Duanmuhuai followed the scent to find the past, he saw a man wearing an iron helmet sitting at the gate of the stone house, and there were boiled red shrimps in the pot beside him.

   "Who are you?! What do you want?"

  Seeing Duanmu Huai appear, the helmeted man was also taken aback, and hurriedly picked up his weapon and stared at him.

   "I'm just looking for you a bit."

   While speaking, Duanmu Huai pointed behind him.

   "There's a lady over there who said you took her pendant and I'm here to help her get it back."

   "What, it turned out to be like this..."

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, the helmeted man somewhat relaxed his vigilance. He stared at Duanmuhuai with a smile on his face.

   "You want that pendant... Huh, that's it... Then you should show a little sincerity, maybe I'd like to sell it to you?"

   "Sell it to me? I don't have any money."

   "Then there is no way, maybe you can give me this armor?"

   "I have another suggestion."

  While speaking, Duanmu Huai walked up to the man, who stared at Duanmu Huai nervously, and clenched the weapon in his hand.

   "What proposal?"

   "What do you think of this?"

  Duanmu Huai glanced at the red pot next to him, and swallowed.

"I have a way to make your pot of shrimp more delicious, so let's make a deal, if I can make your pot of shrimp taste better, you can give me that pendant, and treat me to eat shrimp by the way ,How about it?"

"…………Um???"
