A brave player who started by touching corpses

This was the last wish Luke came up with after thinking for half a night, and he used it right at this moment.

To make a wish, to put it bluntly, is just a word game. You have to guess the upper limit of what the genie can accomplish, and you have to be careful not to push it too far.

The inventory capacity has always been a big problem for Luke. Although this is a necessary part for Diablo players who don't have big boxes, Luke still hopes that his inventory can hold more.

Any more inventory will be of great help to Luke in the future in terms of operations between killing monsters and shouting medicine and shouting items, the number of supplies that can be carried, and the increase of replaceable equipment.

Therefore, he chose to make a wish in this regard.

But because he was afraid that the genie would distort his wishes, Luke did not make such greedy wishes as "expand my inventory", "let the potion items in the inventory be stacked to 999", "give me the Horadric Cube", etc., which would directly change or generate items. Instead, he made a wish for the genie to give him a way to increase the inventory capacity.

In this case, even if the method given by the genie is really twisted and difficult, Luke can just choose not to do it, and it will not affect his original things.

Under Luke's expectant and nervous gaze, the muscular genie with his arms crossed over his chest once again laughed in a standard three-part style, and then his body decomposed and quickly condensed into a scroll-like thing, which fell into Luke's hands.

When he got the scroll and saw the simple item description popped up on it, Luke knew that he had made the right bet again.

[Genie Challenge Scroll: Tear it open, and you will be randomly teleported to a monster nest with a challenge task reward of "Inventory Expansion".

This task is a "Luke Exclusive" single-player challenge task, and others cannot use it. You cannot form a team, but you can carry mercenaries and summons. 】

Giving up the possibility of directly obtaining the inventory expansion in exchange for a related challenge task scroll may seem a bit too conservative, but Luke thinks this is just what he wants.

It's a good opportunity to continue to broaden my horizons and see more monster nests in the world that are based on games.

But Luke didn't plan to set off so rashly. Even if he was alone and faced a random monster nest, Luke still felt that he needed more preparation before he could set off.

At least he had to find a way to make himself and the little monster higher in level, or have more powerful equipment.

And Luke also keenly noticed a point, that is, the location of this challenge task is "Monster Nest" instead of "Challenge Scene". Does this mean that this task location is different from the drilling task of the old blacksmith, and it is a real monster nest somewhere?

Looking at the back of Luke's hurried departure, and then looking at the super-strong Eagle Magic Bead in his hand that was about to be drilled, the old blacksmith's expression was full of subtlety and confusion.

Originally thought that Luke was just a little thin, and he should still be a barbarian old blacksmith in essence, but now it seems that the gap between him and the traditional barbarian is quite large, and he has actually embarked on the path of a spellcaster.

Are there any spellcasters among the barbarians? The old blacksmith is not sure about this.

But considering that even the ogre tribe can have natural spellcasters, and even the king-like two-headed ogre magician, it doesn't seem too difficult to understand that there is an extra mad magician among the barbarians.

Now the old blacksmith thinks he has found the main reason why Luke is too thin.

Luke went directly to the guild's mission center, preparing to find a suitable leveling location in the bounty mission or monster nest information.

Because there are the mage's hellfire and the necromancer's corpse explosion, Luke's requirements for the monster group are "monsters refresh frequently", "low resistance to fire", "ground units", and "preferably not pure humanoid units".

Fortunately, with the help of the electronic butler Noah, the search speed is not slow, and several qualified units have appeared.

But if it is limited to the radius around Qixing City, there is only one left.

However, when Luke saw the "emergency" label on this monster nest, Luke's expression immediately became serious.

A numbered residential area outside Qixing City has been occupied by the monster tide. Almost all residents have evacuated in time and the surrounding area has been initially controlled, but the residential area itself has basically fallen, leaving only the monster tide wandering inside and destroying it.

So the task this time is to clean up the monster tide, find and eliminate the nest of the source of the monster tide.

Like the previous 911 convenience store incident, it was an emergency task.

Anyone in Qixing City can choose to call the police immediately when they find signs of monsters or monster nests. The police will immediately send surrounding police officers to verify. When it is confirmed that the monster or monster nest really exists, they will contact the Hero Guild to send people out.

The guild will first directly contact the heroes around the scene of the incident based on the wristband positioning, but it is not to let them directly solve the problem. More importantly, they are asked to stabilize the order and assess the strength of the monsters, and then preliminarily determine the level and urgency of the incident based on the various video materials temporarily uploaded by the heroes.

If it is a task with the "emergency" tag, Noah will issue an emergency notice similar to a call-up order to the heroes who meet the conditions for handling the incident based on various factors such as the combat rating, combat ability, past combat record, and distance from the incident site.

The reason why Luke did not receive the relevant notice is mainly because his hero rating is not high enough and his qualifications are very shallow. The combatants required for this emergency task are at least D-level, and it is best to have the ability to deal with group damage.

The E-level who can be summoned are basically responsible for logistical support. For example, Joey, a field doctor, and the D-level leaper who can change the terrain have been summoned, while Black Spice and Jump Knight, like Luke, have not received any notice.

In other words, in Noah's judgment, the combat effectiveness of Black Spice and Jump Knight cannot play a big role in this incident. Instead, they may put themselves in danger. It is better to continue to do the tasks that are in line with their ratings.

However, because the current incident's danger rating was not above C, and it did not involve saving people, there was no mandatory call for B-level heroes like Sanmu.

After all, this was not the first time that a similar situation had occurred. Once all the forces that could be mobilized were rashly mobilized, what should be done if an incident occurred in other places?

But after Luke confirmed the composition of the monsters in the monster tide, after a brief psychological assessment, he decided to take the initiative to participate in the mission.

But first he had to get the Eagle Bead back, which was the key condition for whether he could join this mission.

Luke rushed to the blacksmith shop and did not forget to send a message to Sanmu. He soon got the finished product from the old blacksmith who was very idle.

The old blacksmith was obviously skilled. He directly punched the maximum number of holes in the Eagle Bead, which was 2 holes.

If the Eagle Bead was not a special staff and could not form a rune language, Luke would have kept it as the base material for the "leaf".

Without stopping, Luke rushed out of the blacksmith and jumped onto the rented hovercraft, heading straight for the target location, the residential area of ​​E12.

When he arrived at the temporary camp headquarters set up by the Heroes Guild at E12, Luke's sight was immediately focused on the pile of monster corpses piled together by a group of old colleagues in protective clothing to be processed.

The slender body, the angular bone plates, the tip of the tail that can easily pierce the human body, and the long head like the iconic Frieza's third form, all tell their true identity.

Aliens.
