Chapter 100: The Treasure Chest
"Nanny!?"
Ye Fei asked tentatively, "Are you Count Dacula's servant, Nanni?" ”
The woman in the maid's suit let out a weird laugh, "Oh Hoho, Nanny? Of course, I am Nanni, the most intimate servant of the little girl. You are new travelers, and I welcome you on behalf of the Count. Okay, well, it's heart-wrenching to see how thin you've become. ”
As she spoke, Nanni had already pounced with her arms outstretched, as if she wanted to hold Ye Fei in her arms.
Ye Fei only felt goosebumps on the back of his neck, and hurriedly flashed to the side, waved his hand and said with a dry smile: "Ahem, the old butler asked us to come over to find the thieves in the castle, have you seen them?" ”
Nanni stopped and looked at Ye Fei innocently: "Are you talking about taking the four little guys?" They were still here, no, I don't know where they ran in a blink of an eye, but you can look from room to room, and you should find them soon. ”
As she spoke, Nanni turned around and crashed through a wall, not knowing where she had gone.
"Nima, it's really Nanny!" Ye Fei was basically certain at this time that this castle was based on the castle in the cartoon - The Adventures of the Strange Duck, and the old butler who did not want to be named should be the vulture Igor. Only here, the image of these missions has changed, the original vulture has become an old man, and Nanni's image has changed from a big white hen to a human maid. But the name hasn't changed, and even the personality hasn't changed, Nannie still doesn't go through the main door, she likes to hit the wall, and the other four little thieves have appeared, so will the mission of this castle be related to the comic plot?
When Ye Fei looked at the big hole that Nanni had knocked out, he was stunned, and suddenly heard a very light voice from the room behind: "Hey, hey, adventurer." Ye Fei followed the voice and looked back, but saw that in the slightly open door of the room behind him, two figures were looking outside, and one of them stretched out his hand and beckoned to him: "Hey, come here, new young man, come here." ”
Ye Fei walked over in confusion, the two NPCs had the names Eddie and Zhuo Yi on the top of their heads, and the lower part of the names was also marked with a parenthesis - thieves.
"These two should be the thieves that the vultures are talking about, what are they doing here?" Ye Fei looked at these two excited guys, Eddie and Zhuo Yi were both skinny and small-eyed, and they weren't a good thing at first glance. However, Ye Fei couldn't understand, shouldn't these two guys be hiding from themselves, why did they recruit themselves instead?
Eddie pulled Ye Fei into the room, then rubbed his hands and said excitedly: "Hey, adventurer, it's really nice to see you, we have another companion, right?" ”
Zhuo Yi nodded vigorously and agreed, "Yes, there is one more companion, what you said is not wrong at all." ”
"Wait." Ye Fei looked at the two of them vigilantly, "I'm not here to steal things, to be honest, it was the old housekeeper vulture who asked me to throw you back into the room." ”
"Oh, the room? No, that's hell to damn it. Add said with a look of horror on his face, his eyes seeming to reveal a deep sense of fear.
Zoe's body trembled slightly, "Yes, it's a hellish place. ”
Ye Fei became more and more confused the more he listened, judging from the vulture's words, they had prepared a guest room for Eddie and these guys, but why did they think it was a hellish place?
Add looked left and right, lowered his voice and said, "Adventurer, do you know what this place is?" You don't know here, so you dare to rush in? Tell you that this is a vampire's castle, Count Dacula, is a terrible vampire. It's just that no one knows the truth, and we, the great demon hunters, are here to search for evidence. ”
Zoe nodded and repeated, "Yes, we are demon hunters. ”
Ye Fei looked at Zhuo Yi strangely, this guy would always repeat Eddie's words, and deliberately strengthened his tone, what kind of reason is this? He pondered for a while, and immediately sent a message to Zhao Siqing: "Xiaoqing, what's the situation over there?" ”
After a while, Zhao Siqing replied with a message: "I found two people, Jones and Levine, but they are a little strange. In fact, they probably found me and said something inexplicable. ”
Ye Fei thought for a while and said, "You know the cartoon Adventures of the Strange Duck, I guess this castle is modeled after that cartoon, do you know who I met here?" Nanni, hehe, a very burly, very strong servant. ”
Zhao Siqing covered her mouth in surprise, Nanni? Isn't that Dacula's servant, in her mouth, this duck owner is a little girl, a little duckling, and this place is really Dacula's castle? Her heart inexplicably swelled with excitement: "Wow, do you think we will see that fat duck?" ”
"Haha, I don't know, but you see that the appearance of the people here has changed. I guess Count Dacula won't be a duck, but a vampire. ”
"Huh~" Zhao Siqing shuddered, she is not Mo Xiaoqi, but she doesn't like things like vampires. Of course, I don't think a pale vampire will be so handsome.
The two discussed it for a while, and felt that things here were full of weirdness, so it was better to be careful, but at present, it seems that this castle must be related to the adventures of the strange duck, and these four guys are definitely not demon hunters, but thieves. However, Ye Fei felt that it was not yet time to demolish them, and he should figure out what they wanted to do.
Ye Fei listened to Eddie and Zhuo Yi continue to talk nonsense, it was nothing more than saying that there were some unsightly things hidden in a corner of the castle, but judging from the occasional leakage, they were more concerned about the treasures in the castle and a secret room underground: "There is blood-red grass growing there, each grass has a strange power, you will never think of their value, tsk, if we can get these red grasses, we can make a fortune." ”
Eddie's eyes were full of greed when he said this. Ye Fei's heart moved, the red grass, could it be bloody grass? Either way, just go down and take a look. He glanced at Eddie and smiled, "In that case, we might as well go to the secret room and have a look, but how can that kind of grass grow in the secret room?" ”
Eddie licked his lips and laughed viciously, "Hehe, the legend of the bloody grass, haven't you heard of it?" Grass that lives on blood as nutrients, what other place than this vampire's castle is suitable for such a strange thing to grow? ”
When Ye Fei heard this, this grass was indeed bloody grass, and when several people were about to leave the room and go to the basement, Zhuo Yi, who had always only been in line with Eddie's words, suddenly jumped out of a sentence: "Actually, there are more interesting things next door to the secret room." ”
As soon as these words came out, Ye Fei was puzzled, but Eddie jumped up suddenly: "You said those things? Damn, you're still thinking about those things, those things aren't worth anything at all, you know? ”
Zoe looked at the furious Eddie with an innocent expression: "However, those are antiques, and they can be sold for many gold coins." ”
"Antiques? Hehe, antiques are worth a lot of bloodgrass, besides, those antiques are not necessarily real, but bloodweed is genuine. ”
Zoe wanted to say something more, but Eddie waved his hand impatiently, and said, "Well, let's let this new partner decide." ”
The two looked at Ye Fei who was stunned at the same time: "Yes, let you decide." There are two secret rooms, we can only choose one of them to enter, one secret room has bloody grass, and the other secret room has antiques that I don't know if it's true or false, which one do you choose? ”
Bloody grass? Antique? Ye Fei didn't think about it, so he chose the bloody grass, after all, the bloody grass is not only valuable, but also his mission goal: "I choose the bloody grass." ”
Eddie smugly raised his eyebrows at Zoe: "See, it's 2 to 1 now, and he also chose Bloody Grass, then you have to go to this secret room with us, forget your antiques, Zoe." ”
Zhuo Yi sighed in disappointment: "Okay, I'll forget about it, but it's worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins." ”
Eddie snorted twice and muttered, "Who knows if it's real or fake, who knows?" Neither you nor I have the ability to identify antiques. ”
The two of them muttered and walked towards the door, and when Ye Fei was about to walk out with them, he suddenly noticed a portrait on the wall, and his eyes shook slightly, but when he looked closely, everything seemed to be normal.
"Is it a delusion?" Ye Fei hesitated, he didn't think so, could it be that someone was secretly watching? He looked at the unaware Eddie and Zoe, two little thieves who thought they were smart, but their every move was actually under the watchful eye of others.
Ye Fei had already made up his mind, he would go with them to get the bloody grass first, at least complete his mercenary mission, and then send them back to the room.
After Eddie and Zoe left the room, they went into the study on the opposite side of the corridor, found the mechanism behind a bookshelf and opened the secret door to the underground secret room, and then beckoned Ye Fei to go in together.
However, when Ye Fei entered the door, his attention was attracted by a box in the corner, the simple bronze box, exuding a pale cyan luster, lying there quietly, and a delicate small lock hung on the mouth of the box. Ye Fei hurriedly shouted softly to Eddie and Zhuo Yi, "Hey, there's a box here, don't you see it?" ”
Eddie was just about to enter the secret door, and when he heard Ye Fei say this, he immediately stopped, turned around and smiled: "Oh, come on, there are countless such boxes in this castle, but they are all locked, and there are no good things in them." ”
Locked? Ye Fei looked at Eddie, aren't these guys thieves, and they don't know how to pick locks? Does the thief above their head not mean that they are thieves by profession, but that they are ordinary people who steal for a living?
Ye Fei didn't quite understand what was going on, but although he wasn't a thief himself, he still knew how to pick locks. It's just that I haven't really used it since I learned it. He ran to the side of the treasure chest, opened the unlocking skill, and immediately had a small iron needle in his hand, fiddling with it a few times, as the progress bar under the small lock disappeared, the system popped up a prompt: Ding, your skill level is too low, the unlocking failed, please try more.
"Rub, the skill is too low." Ye Fei was depressed for a moment, he had never used it since he learned to pick the lock. And if you want to improve your lockpicking skills, you must choose the thief branch at level 20. But fortunately, although the lockpicking skill is low, you can start again if you fail, as long as you try a few more times, you may be able to succeed.
Three minutes later, Ye Fei successfully opened the bronze treasure chest, from which he got more than sixty silver coins and a level 21 green piece of equipment, the attributes are not good or bad, and the price of a few gold coins can also be exchanged for some guild points if you throw it to Linda.
