Xue Ji pondered for a moment, looked at Murong Feng's bright eyes hidden under the hood, and said with a serious face, "Because you are the number one swordsman in the whole server!" ”

Murong Feng smiled and said, "Even if you praise me to the sky, my fees are still very expensive!" If you really want to ask me to help, please explain the plot and difficulty of the quest first, and then the reward. Of course, if you don't make a price that satisfies me, I can only say sorry. Although we know each other well, business is business, and I must be paid something worthy of my help before I can nod and agree to help you. This is the rule of mercenaries and cannot be easily broken. ”

Xue Ji rolled her eyes when she heard this, and then the tavern owner brought the wine and meat she ordered, and Xue Ji picked up the wine jug and poured it violently, but she was choked and coughed, "Ahem, cough, this wine is so spicy!" How do you love to drink this! Ahem, ahem! ”

Murong Feng also picked up the warm wine jug and took a sip, and said with a light smile: "Life always has to taste different tastes in order to understand what is sweet and sour. ”

"It's so tiring to talk to you, I feel like those old men, full of life philosophies at every turn. You don't seem to be as old as me, do you? Little sister! Yukihime snorted softly.

Murong Feng choked and said embarrassedly, "Do you still want to do your task, my time is very precious." I don't have time to drink and chat with you here. ”

"Okay, I'll show you a treasure first, but you have to promise not to tell anyone!" Yukihime approached and said mysteriously.

"I promise!" Murong Feng patted his chest and promised, "Never tell anyone." Okay, take it out and see what kind of treasure it is? ”

Yukihime looked left and right and saw that no one noticed this. He took out a ...... from his satchel Golden Fruit!!

Murong Feng felt that his heart suddenly skipped a beat. I almost blurted out and asked Xue Ji, "How much is it willing to sell?" But wait until she looks at it again. Suddenly I was even more surprised, only to realize that this fruit was not the other fruit. Because the golden fruit that Yukihime took out turned out to be pure gold!!

Murong Feng's first reaction was that this thing was definitely not for eating! Otherwise, you have to have good teeth to chew this golden fruit!

"What kind of treasure is this?" Murong Feng looked at it carefully for a long time and found that this fruit had other special features besides being pure gold.

"Look carefully, don't blink." Xue Ji put the pure gold fruit into the sunlight shining in from the window, and saw that very complicated and mysterious runes appeared on the surface of the golden husk, giving people a feeling that it was not ordinary!

Xue Ji took back the pure gold fruit and shared the attribute with Murong Feng, and Murong Feng was even more puzzled when he saw the attribute of this thing!

【Mysterious Golden Apple】

Quality: Unknown (??) ）

Purpose: Unknown.

Description: This is a mysterious golden apple that seems to contain some kind of magical power.

"Where did you get this from? Is it related to your mission? And you can show me how to worry! Aren't you afraid of my idea of hitting it? Murong Feng was surprised.

Xue Ji shrugged her shoulders indifferently and said, "I don't have any other skills, but I think I still have a little bit of knowledge." I know you're a good person, that's why I'll show it to you. I haven't shown this to anyone else. And I don't even know what it's for. I'll sell it to you if you want it. ”

Is this the first good guy card in my life? Murong Feng touched his nose with a wry smile on his face, and said embarrassedly, "Then you have to tell me where you got this thing first!" ”

Xue Ji smiled mysteriously, first put away the golden apple, and then took out a piece of animal skin from the bag and spread it out, Murong Feng was surprised to find that it was actually a treasure map, and it was already a cracked treasure map, only to see that the complex patterns on the animal skin were marked with various coordinate references.

"You're majoring in archaeology?" Murong Feng was surprised.

"Yes!" Yukihime spread out the treasure map and whispered, "This is going to start a few days ago, because the guys I used to hang out with all ran away to Nordasen, and I was left here alone. I'm going to go pick up some ice shoots in Icewind Dale. As a result, I accidentally ran into a level 15 Silver Crystal Monster, and it took a lot of effort to kill it. As a result, only a treasure map was dropped. Fortunately, my major is archaeology, so it didn't take much effort to unravel this treasure map. Then follow the map to find the treasure spot. It's a crypt. ”

Murong Feng looked at the treasure map while listening, and saw the red cross representing the treasure marked under the cliff in the north-central part of Icewind Valley, and said in surprise, "That treasure spot is in Icewind Valley?" ”

"Shhhh Be quiet! Don't let anyone hear! Xue Ji was unsuspecting of Murong Feng, and the two of them were almost next to each other, only to see her whispering, "I found the entrance to the crypt where the treasure was hidden, and I went down to take a look, and found that the inside of the crypt was like a labyrinth, and there were traces of artificial excavation everywhere." And the golden apple was found in a golden treasure chest in a stone chamber in the crypt. On top of that, I found a skeleton in the stone chamber, and guess what, it was metal! I was so scared that I thought I had run into a T-shaped metal combat robot! ”

Yukihime patted her chest and continued with trepidation, "Later, I found out that the skeleton was a metal skeleton, with no energy power core, and no intelligent light brain. Then I found a diary next to the metal skull. As a result, as soon as I picked up the diary, a hidden mission was triggered for me! ”

"What hidden mission?" Murong Feng listened to Xue Ji's adventure story and unconsciously sank into it, and subconsciously asked. But as soon as she spoke, she regretted it. It's really a lot to scold yourself, hidden tasks have always been synonymous with cheating, and I have been cheated several times. Why haven't you learned your lesson yet!

I saw Xue Ji take out a diary with a leather cover again, and after opening it, the diary was full of dense fly-headed small characters, but the problem was that Murong Feng was not an archaeology major and couldn't read those otherworldly characters at all. Fortunately, there are still a lot of illustrations in the diary, but Murong Feng didn't see any way out after looking at it for a long time.

"What does this diary say?"

Yukihime flipped through the diary and explained, "The owner of the diary claims to be from a plane called the world of Argus. He ended up here because his ship's navigation system was disoriented by an electromagnetic storm and drifted around for an unknown amount of time. Then make a forced landing here. Here are some descriptions of his hometown. The focus is on the rear. ”

Yukihime quickly flipped to the last few pages. Suppressed emotion, he explained: "This person said that he carries with him the crystallization of science and technology from a higher alien civilization - the golden apple!" ”

"The one you just took out?" Murong Feng snorted in surprise.

"That's right! But......" Yukihime frowned as she flipped through the diary, "but the last few pages of the diary are sloppy, and there are many places where I can't make out the handwriting on them, so I can only figure out the general meaning." The owner of the diary said that he carried a total of seven golden apples with him, but three were lost due to severe damage when the ship crash-landed on the planet. Later, several more powerful indigenous civilizations were encountered on the planet, and two more were robbed! He had only two golden apples left on him, one of which he later carried with him, and the other one was hidden in the wreckage of the ship. ”

Xue Ji turned to the last page, and Murong Feng found that the diary was incomplete on the last page, and it was not complete!

"There's a missing diary here." Yukihime said regretfully, "The owner of the diary said at the end of the diary that whoever can gather the seven golden apples can summon ...... The back is gone! ”

Murong Feng muttered, "Then did the hidden mission you received ask you to go to the wreckage of the spaceship to find the second golden apple?" ”

"Huh! You guessed it! You're so smart! That's right. The hidden mission I triggered was for me to go deeper into the crypt to find the wreckage and then find the second golden apple in the wreckage. Xue Ji flipped through her diary and frowned, "The problem is that there are very powerful monsters guarding the crypt, and I can't defeat them alone." ”

"How many levels of monsters?" Murong Feng asked.

"A level 30 elite steel golem, a large constructed mechanical creature, immune to physical damage such as slashing and piercing, immune to any magic that affects the mind, spirit, and soul, immune to curses, blessings, instant death magic, immune to necromantic magic, immune to toxins and transformation, and extremely strong defense. It can effectively block the elemental damage caused by most magic from the first to the third order, and can be corroded by strong acids. It can be slowed down by electric shocks and affected by magnetic fields, but it requires magic that is at least Tier 4 powerful to have a noticeable effect. ”

Xue Ji's detailed and excessive information almost dislocated Murong Feng's jaw, and Murong Feng was stunned: "How do you know this information?" Have you studied those steel golem slices? ”

Xue Ji smiled slightly, shook the day in her hand, and replied with a smile, "It is written in the diary that those steel golems are actually battle puppets made by the owner of the diary. There is even an explanation of the size of each part! ”

"Wow! Isn't that the same as a complete blueprint of a level 30 elite Iron Golem? Murong Feng's eyes suddenly burned, and said, "Beauty! Say, how much is willing to sell? I want this drawing! ”

Xue Ji was stunned when she heard this, then slapped her head, and suddenly realized, "Oops! If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have known this diary would have been so valuable! Wowhaha, get rich! ”

"Don't giggle, let's see if there are any other blueprints? This is a real treasure! Murong Feng urged in surprise.

Yukihime immediately flipped through the diary from the beginning and looked at it carefully, and kept reading it in her mouth.

"There is a potion recipe recorded here, and drinking it can temporarily increase the stamina by 30 points for 1 hour!"

"I bought it! Keep looking! ”

"Huh? This is a tailor's drawing of a level 30 magic cloak, and you can be invisible in this magic cloak! It's amazing! ”

"Bought it!"

"This is a spiritual potion formula!"

"Bought it!"

"Wow! This is the blueprint of the Magic Flying Locomotive! What a cool look! ”

"Bought !!"

"Huh!? Hey? Hey!!! Xue Ji suddenly let out an exclamation, looked up and said in surprise, "I didn't expect that a closer look made me discover the origin of those seven golden apples!" ”

Murong Feng thought that she had found something good again, but it turned out that she had discovered the origin of those mysterious golden apples. Murong Feng was not interested in this, and what could he do if he knew the origin. At this stage, players don't have to expect interstellar travel. However, Murong Feng was still very cooperative and asked, "Tell me quickly, where did those golden apples come from?" ”

"The diary said that those golden apples seem to come from a ......" Xue Ji paused and frowned and looked carefully, "Wait, this handwriting is a little blurry, it seems to be called Namei, Nameinexing?" Xue Ji raised her head and asked Murong Feng with a confused expression, "Have you heard of this name?" ”

Murong Feng also shook his head in confusion, indicating that he didn't know, and said, "What do you call it!" This is the game, you can't guess the origin of the treasure against reality, unless you ask the game mastermind. ”

"Well, it's me thinking too much." Xue Ji said helplessly.

Then the two girls got together and carefully looked through every line of the diary to find the 'treasure' hidden between the lines! I have to say that the relationship between people is sometimes how special. Some people don't like each other as soon as they meet, and then they don't get along with each other for a long time. And some people can become close friends at first sight.

Of course, it is not excluded that Murong Feng has a lifelong friendship with Xue Ji, but it is also a kind of fate that the two sides can get together again.

The two chatted until noon, and Murong Feng suddenly found that his time was completely insufficient. Because she still has to travel thousands of miles to deliver a letter to Rhine, and then rush back to find the Jianmu God to unseal the Sword of Inheritance. These two things must be completed by three o'clock in the afternoon, and then rush back to Norda Sen to learn the basic arcane arts with Tellerville, or you will be late and discredited.

So today is destined to not be able to go to the crypt with Xue Ji to explore the secrets, Murong Feng told him about his situation. Yukihime said she understood. Then the two parties agreed to work together to explore the crypt together early tomorrow morning, and then added friends to each other and parted ways. When Murong Feng left the Jialan Guild camp, he turned over and got on the armored locomotive, and roared away in the direction of Icewind Valley against the wind and snow. (To be continued......)
