Is this really just an RPG? !

I, the brave Neil, and my partner, Qiuqiu, continued to save the devil and beat the devil along the way, on the way to August, the capital of the devil.

A few days ago, I got rid of those murlocs and released the captured humans, and I got a reward—even if the mission failed, I could still get the gratitude from the rescued, although most of them are optional. I didn't pay much attention to the unnecessary copper coins, and accepted them calmly.

After the magic scrolls were identified, I bought a few special magic scrolls and a bunch of magic potions. Everything is ready, Qiuqiu and I set off immediately. Since we have to go through the border fortress Grace, it is better to start early.

Probably the king gave special orders, and I was not hindered when I left the fortress, and I left very easily.

In this way, I officially came to the territory of the demons: the endless desolation, the soil on the ground is black and emits a strange smell, and there are a few black birds on the dead branches that can be seen everywhere. They stare at me and keep making strange sounds The cry, neither too far away nor too close.

This is Aiden, the Badlands.

Just like the god Aiden's role, there is no way to find anything full of life here, no matter whether it is animals or plants, they have been demonized into monsters, and even the land under their feet has lost their life. If it weren't for the fact that there is a god in charge of the land, it is estimated that this land will also be demonized.

But here is the favorite place of the demons.

"So the demons are actually a group of masochists?"

"He just has unique aesthetics, so the owner should not make random comments."

"It's too unique..."

I can't imagine what kind of guy would be happy to live in a place like this.

Maybe, because I'm a human being, I can't understand the demons?

"Maybe."

"Maybe... Oh, by the way, Qiuqiu, where is the next city?"

I looked up at my partner.

Even if we have already left the fortress, it does not mean that we can reach August in one day, and I really don’t want to camp in the wild in such a dead place, so I can only consider choosing a few cities to settle down, and then slowly arrive in August .

Anyway, it's only been a month, so there's definitely plenty of time.

"Well, how about going to Ingrid?"

"What strange city name, and it seems familiar?"

"Because this city was actually built by followers of Ingrid."

"So who is Ingrid?"

"The God of Ji Lao with chaotic duties."

"..."

"The teachings of Ingrid's teaching enveloped the entire city."

"Does that mean only believers can enter?"

"Oh, that's unnecessary. It's just that if you want to enter the city, you must be a woman."

"Must be female?"

"Yes, it must be a woman."

"What about men!"

"Go and get Ingrid's blessing, then there will be no problem."

"It's so simple, how can you get blessings in a day! So let's change the city... What is this?"

Suddenly a black jade appeared in my hand.

Clean and beautiful, it should not be something like black pearls.

There is a certain energy in it.

"[Ingrid's Blessing False (5 days)], just like the name."

"Where did you get it?"

I looked at Qiuqiu with disbelief.

"Because I got stuck, so I gave it to you!"

"Give it to me because it got stuck?"

"Yes, yes, otherwise, how can we continue!"

"Can't we change the road? We actually have plenty of time!"

"No, that's the way it is set up."

"..."

What should I do if there are more and more shady scenes recently.

I looked at the props in my hand and couldn't help feeling a headache.

The current situation is: if you want to go to August, you have to enter the city of Ingrid; if you want to enter the city of Ingrid, you must be a woman; With the blessing of being a woman, you can enter the city without any pressure.

To put it simply, I will become a girl in the next five days.

Thanks Sammy, that was a really good joke for me.

…………

It's better to uninstall this strange RPG game as soon as possible, it can't be played anymore.

"Is there really no other way?"

"There's really no other way."

I looked at Qiuqiu full of resentment, and pressed the "use item" button with my trembling right hand.

The world in his eyes suddenly turned white.

By the time I recovered, I was lying on the ground.

I, Brave Neil, am 16 years old.

For some reason, I was able to do what most male creatures can't - become a woman.

oh! Ingrid's blessing.

If there is a chance, I would like to thank you in person.

※ ※ ※ ※

Ingrid City.

If it wasn't necessary, I'd probably never get anywhere near it.

But the key point is - as a hero, I need to go to August, the capital of the demons, and on the way to August, I need to pass through the city of Ingrid. As for the detour? It's not impossible, but it will increase the distance by a lot of days out of thin air, and it is very likely that there is no way to reach August at the appointed time.

So Qiuqiu and I entered Ingrid City.

…………

By the way, I am now, Neil Franks Noyce, a girl who looks to be about 8 or 9 years old.

…………

Yes, as I said, now I am a girl.

…………

Suddenly, I really want to wantonly destroy something. Anyway, there is no such regulation as the "Explosion Violation Law" in this world.

"Master, if you destroy it at will, your reputation will be deducted, which will cause your reputation to deteriorate."

"Tsk."

Hearing Qiuqiu's reminder, I couldn't help but tsk my lips away.

There is a very strange rule in Ingrid City: Anyone who enters the city must be a follower of Ingrid. And it is precisely because of this regulation that the residents in Ingrid City are all women from top to bottom without exception-because Ingrid's gift comes with "the gender of the gifted person will change to a woman" This strange setting.

Plus Ingrid is a very weird god. Although the effect of the gift is a bit unreliable, she is considered hardworking. All her believers can get the gift as long as they make a sincere request, so Ingrid's believers can only be women.

——If you believe in you will get gifts, and if you get gifts, you will change your gender. In this way, it is unreasonable for believers to appear male... although there was indeed an unreasonable uncle not long ago.

In other words: the living beings haunting Ingrid City can only be female.

So, I, who needed to enter the city of Ingrid, naturally got the gift of Ingrid, from a sixteen-year-old boy to a girl who looked only eight or nine years old.

I was very upset about this, so the air pressure was low throughout.

Even though I know this state is only temporary.

But the baby is suffering.

Even though I know this state is only five days.

But the baby is very bitter.

Even though I can see a status badge in the upper left corner of the left screen with a note like "Forged Ingrid's Bounty (time remaining: 4 days 23 hours 13 minutes)".

But the baby is still very bitter.

The baby doesn't want to talk, the baby wants to be quiet.

——Not only did I lose my friend who had been with me for sixteen years, but I also lost about 5cm in height. As a result, I didn’t even get two soft and pinchable buns. This deal was a loss.

# Mind seems a bit wrong? #

I shook my head and didn't continue to dwell on this issue.

"Does the master have any plans?"

Qiuqiu looked around and didn't find anything interesting, then returned, sat on my shoulder and asked me. I was stunned for a moment, and shook my head in confusion, because I didn't know what to do. Although judging from the information of this gift, it should be that I am required to do something in the city within a limited time, but the task bar has not been refreshed for a long time, and there is only one task of "Save the Demon King" as before, which makes me a little confused. to the direction.

This is Ingrid City.

This city is different from the cities I have been to before.

Most of the cities I have been to in the past are dominated by a certain race, and it is even possible that the entire city is of the same race. But here is different, here you can see humans, you can also see demons, and even races from other places, such as the type with pointed ears, the type with short stature but strong physique, and the type that is half-human and half-beast type.

Even Qiuqiu couldn't quickly find out the information of all the races here from the "Endless Library", because there were too many.

But also understandable.

This is a city with the church as its core, and in a sense it is a relatively large church stronghold.

No race but denomination.

Whenever a traveler comes to a new city, the most troublesome and important thing is to recognize the locations of several important facilities, and at the same time, to understand the style of the city and what special things have happened recently—— The former is about travelers’ rest, purchase of travel items, and even dealing with some things; the latter is to prevent travelers who are new to this place from being involved in strange events because they don’t know anything.

All in all, I have always agreed with the principle of "do less trouble and never cause trouble".

"Go to a hotel to choose a room first, and then think about it?"

I turned my head to ask Qiuqiu, she nodded immediately, then turned around and flew forward to stop at the intersection, and raised her hand to signal to me to the right.

"There's a nice hotel here."

"Can the 'Endless Library' even find this kind of thing?"

It should be the first time for Qiuqiu to come to this city like himself.

"A map is also a book."

"A map is also a book..."

I sighed casually, accepting Qiuqiu's explanation.

Under the leadership of Qiuqiu, I went through three or four intersections and came to a not too narrow alleyway. After walking for a few minutes, I finally arrived at the "good quality and cheap" place that Qiuqiu said hostel.

"'Dongsheng'?"

"Well, because the entrance of the hotel is very remote, basically there will be no full occupancy, so coming here is the best choice."

"No, I'm just curious about the name of this hotel."

I shake my head.

In my impression, all I saw along the way were names like "XX Hotel".

Besides, this is the first time I know that a hotel will open to such a place.

Do you want to have guests, or do you not want to have guests?

It seems that anything can be said.

"Don't mind the name, master! Let's go in quickly."

Qiuqiu flew behind me and tried to push me in, but as far as her strength was concerned, she couldn't do anything to me. But as Qiuqiu said, no matter how curious you are about this hotel, you can’t get the answer just by standing at the door, so I walked in.

"Jingling, dingling..."

The moment the door was opened, there was a crisp bell, and I subconsciously raised my head and looked to the left.

There is a mechanism designed on the door frame, and a string of bells is hung on the mechanism. As long as someone pushes the door, whether it is going out from the inside or coming in from the outside, the bell will ring. Maybe it is because of this that you choose to close the door when it is open during the day? Anyway, the hotel doors I saw before were kept open, and there were even people standing inside the door.

Tables and chairs were neatly placed in the hall, but no guests were seen, not even a receptionist at the counter.

Is this really a hotel?

Or did I actually break into the house?

"anyone there?"

I subconsciously shouted and took a few steps forward, and began to look around the entire hall.

However, after I slowly turned around and returned to the counter, I still didn't see the receptionist come out.

"Qiuqiu? Is there no one in this hotel today?"

"It's not that there is no one, but..."

"Sir, do you need accommodation?"

A childish voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Qiuqiu's answer. I immediately turned my head and looked towards the counter again, but I still didn't see anyone appearing. However, the question just now was not an auditory hallucination, because I could hear the voice very clearly, and I could even hear a little breathing in the tone.

"Sir...can you lower your head?"

"Eh?"

The voice sounded again, I immediately lowered my head as the other person said, and then saw a gentleman.

…………

No, it should be a young child! This height is only a little over one meter, right?

…………

Still not right, the other party's temperament and tone of conversation should only be possessed by a certain age.

I fell silent for a while.

"gentlemen?"

"Are you the owner of this store?"

"Well, so sir, you want to stay at the hotel?"

"...Yes, is there any room left?"

I directly pulled out a wooden chair and sat down, looking at the small innkeeper, I felt an indescribable calm in my heart, and answered in a calm tone with a calm face. The boss nodded, and pulled out a wooden chair, then spent a lot of effort to climb onto the chair, spread the notebook in his hand on the table and wrote a bunch of things, then took out a key from his pocket and threw it into the in front of me.

"No. 201, one gold coin a day is enough."

Boss Zhengtai said to me with a kind smile.

But I don't know if it's my illusion, I seem to be able to see the almost solid black air behind him.

"..."

I think I have a new understanding of the purchasing power of gold coins.

Is Ingrid City more expensive?

He took out five gold coins from his pocket and threw them to the Boss Zhengtai in front of him, saying that he would stay for five days, but suddenly he thought of something, immediately took out another gold coin, and waved it in front of the other party a few times.

"There is something I want to ask the boss."

"Well, what do you want to ask?"

Just as I thought, the boss was very interested in gold coins. He was about to jump off the wooden chair and gave up his previous plan. Instead, he sat on the wooden chair and looked at me curiously.

"Tell me the price of the question first?"

"One gold coin per question."

The boss put the notebook on the table, then stretched out his right hand to motion for me to give the gold coins.

…………

This guy who fell into the eyes of money, only asks for money for interrogative sentences!

"Tsk."

Although I was a little dissatisfied, I still threw the gold coin in my hand to him, and then took out another one.

"Has anything troublesome happened in this city recently?"

"Hey, it's hard to answer. After all, there are quite a lot of things. One gold coin is not enough, sir."

"Then change the question and tell me about Ingrid's teaching, and it happened recently."

After speaking, I threw the gold coin in my hand to the other party.

The boss smiled and took the gold coin, stuffed it into his arms, and then sat on the chair.

"A hidden church of the Ingrid Church was destroyed. The church was originally a stronghold for promoting beliefs, and the place where it was built was very hidden, so the Ingrid Church began to suspect that someone inside had leaked the news. Recently The investigation is very good, sir, you are lucky to enter the city so easily."

"If I plan to go out of town tomorrow, will I be in trouble?"

I'll throw him another gold coin.

"Ingrid City is now only allowed to enter and not to exit, but during this period of time, the residents in the city will basically not go out of the city, so even if the official document is issued, no one has discovered it until now... Well, it is better to say that they have discovered it. Don't think it's weird!"

The boss laughed a few times at the end.

I shook my head helplessly, and threw another gold coin to him.

"I didn't expect to encounter such a situation. It's really troublesome...By the way, can I enter the Ingrid Cathedral now?"

"Of course! But only during the morning prayer time."

"Tsk tsk."

I still don't understand the point of praying to such a wonderful god.

"By the way, boss, do you have any other tenants in this hotel besides me?" Originally, I just asked casually, but when I came back to my senses, I saw the boss's right hand stretched out towards me, with a look of "don't give money, don't talk" I sighed helplessly, "Don't ask you this, just tell me how I can leave Ingrid City."

"Go out through the city gate, climb over the city wall, whatever."

"..."

"I'm joking, sir, please don't pay attention to my little joke, after all, you need to liven up the atmosphere occasionally."

"..."

This duplicity black-hearted businessman.

Why is there such a deceitful appearance!

"Sir, can you consider helping Ingrid to deal with their troubles, so maybe the city gate can be opened to allow travelers to pass?"

"All right……"

I narrowed my eyes, slapped the gold coin in my hand on the table, and then bounced it to the boss's hand.

"Can you tell me your name, boss?"

"Roy, the boss of 'Dongsheng'."

Roy introduced himself with such a simple sentence.

But it's similar to what I guessed, besides, I just had the mentality of giving it a try at the beginning.

However, just as I was about to stand up and go to the room, the gold coin was bounced back and stopped in my hand.

"May I ask, why did your husband ask me about the situation in the city?"

"This one!" I put the gold coins on the table into my pockets, then put my hands in my pockets and looked straight at the other party, "Because you call me sir."

Yes, Roy called me "Sir" from the beginning.

However, after accepting Ingrid's gift, my body has indeed become female.

Although it's just a flat-chested girl, in terms of appearance, anyone with good eyesight can tell my current gender.

Roy, however, addressed me as "Sir", not "Miss".

So, either Roy's eyesight is bad, or he has seen through that the gift on me is just a disguise.

I've ruled out the former when talking to Roy.

In this way, the only conclusion is the latter-although this conclusion seems absurd, and it is completely impossible to imagine how a gentleman who is more than one meter tall can see the disguise on my body, but in fact it is so.

"...Pfft, hahaha!"

Roy showed a suddenly realized expression, and then laughed again.

"I really didn't notice, then Miss, if I don't have anything else, I'll take my leave first. If you have anything to do, you can come to the reception to find me."

After speaking, Roy left.

Just like when he came, he left quietly.

When I came back to my senses, only Qiuqiu and I were left in the hall.

"Black-hearted boss."

Qiuqiu was very mindful of the gold coins I threw out earlier, so he sat on the table and slammed on the table in annoyance.

"Don't worry, let alone the information."

While comforting Qiuqiu, I looked at the screen on the left. Just now, a new branch task was refreshed on the task window, and this branch task was very special with a "continued" note on the back, plus the task was related to "Ingrid", I immediately recalled the original task. matter.

It was obvious that they were going to "investigate the Ingrid Church", but in fact the mission requirement was to blow up the hidden church.

Now it seems that the real investigation operation should start here.

The bombing of the church before was just a foreshadowing for the current action.

"Master!"

"Eh?"

Because I was thinking, I almost lost my footing when Qiuqiu called me.

"Even so, it's better to go to the room to tidy up first."

"……makes sense."

It wasn't until Qiuqiu said that that I realized that no matter how much I wanted to solve the task in front of me, I had to wait until later. Leaving aside the need to tidy up the room where he rested for the past few days, he should at least sort out a reasonable investigation plan. The boss, Roy, has already returned to the house, and Qiuqiu and I are the only ones left in the hall.

Put the key in your hand into your pocket, then go upstairs with Qiuqiu to room 201.

Very clean room, it looks like it should be cleaned regularly.

But considering that there is only the boss in this hotel... Could it be that the boss cleaned it?

Or there is a waiter, but I didn't notice it.

"Phew!" Qiu Qiuluo raised his head after tossing and turning on the bed for a few times, "Although the boss is cruel, this hotel is definitely among the top hotels in terms of safety and comfort."

After Qiuqiu finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and leisurely added a sentence.

"'Endless Library' says so."

"Um."

I just nodded casually.

But black heart? In fact, I think this Roy boss is okay.

At least he didn't say "this guy doesn't believe in Ingrid so throw him out" or something... wait?

Roy is a gentleman.

That is, boys?

In Ingrid Town?

"I don't know this Qiuqiu either."

Probably reading my thoughts from my puzzled expression, Qiuqiu replied in a weak tone.

"Probably because of some secret?"

"That's all I can think of... But master, what is the update of the mission?"

Qiuqiu flew onto my shoulder and sat down, looking curiously at the screen on the left.

"Ah, um..."

Because the topic changed too quickly, I couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

Open the task window, and move the left screen to the middle for easy reading of the above information.

——Unknowingly, this strange system seems to have evolved to be more humane? If this continues, will we need to add a customer service system?

I couldn't help but sigh.

"Sub-quest [Investigative Operation Ingrid Continued]

Mission information: Boomed an Ingrid's church not long ago! But how is this enough! A hero who has not obtained any information is not a good hero! Besides, the current situation hinders the action of "saving the devil", so what we need to do is to "blow up everything that stops us"... Well, we still need to investigate before we blow up.

Task requirements: 1. Understand the reasons for the blockade of Ingrid City (not completed)”

I don't know if it's my illusion.

I always feel that this system is not cultivating brave men.

More like cultivating terrorists?

"Master, may the world be nuclear-peaceful."

"Don't be sincere!"

"Okay, okay, so does the master have any goals?"

"Old routine, get information and go to the tavern."

After speaking, I took Qiuqiu and left the hotel.
