Summoner, He is Never Alone

It was getting dark, and Ye Xu didn't care what to say to the owner. In the real world, it was time for a family to eat together, so he had to go offline. So after selling the herbs in the package to the shopkeeper, he found a place to go offline.

The brothers obviously knew about Ye Xu's fame on the forum for a long time, but they didn't mention it much, but asked Ye Xu to be careful not to reveal the game ID, lest someone trouble him. After dinner, Ye Xu couldn't wait to go online. He also wanted to see if there would be any clues related to the mission in the evening.

Because of the batch of herbs he brought before, the owner became more and more enthusiastic about Ye Xu. The purchase price he gave was actually not high, but Ye Xu was not short of money, and he didn't care about him at all, just let him give a few special potions as a reward.

This is a lot of money. The potion was not made by the shopkeeper himself. Although it was very expensive to sell, the actual value was just a few copper coins at the cost price. Swap several bottles of potions for several groups of herbs, and he earns blood.

Taking advantage of Ye Xu so much, when Ye Xu asked about the camp again, he would not be able to fool people. Seeing that Ye Xu was interested in the adventure stories of the past, he happily dragged Ye Xu around the fire to eat barbecue, and by the way, the past years in the 818 Rose Camp.

In places like them, there is no shortage of stories of all kinds of adventurers.

For example, whoever entered the forest for a huge bounty task, the result was still not completed. But when I took a small herb that I picked up before I left, I found that it was worth a thousand dollars. It was like another village.

Another example would be someone who heard that their enemy was going to venture into the forest, deliberately came ahead of time to set up traps, and finally killed all the enemies in it. It's a pity that after coming out, he was too shy, and was found by the enemy's relatives and friends, stuck in the forest and hacked to death.

Ye Xu listened with relish, the lives of these NPCs are quite rich. These stories are all background stories that are automatically generated by the main brain. In fact, it never really happened. After all, the NPCs were still on standby before the server was started, and the entire game world was basically prohibited.

However, what Ye Xu wanted to know about Saiya was different. Sai Ya went to Camp Rose at the beginning of the server, and then went home and stayed for a few days when it was discovered that something was wrong. Because the time was still short, his father Corey didn't find a suitable person to help with the investigation, so it was Ye Xu's turn to take over the task, otherwise he would have been picked up by others long ago.

The more Ye Xu and the shopkeeper talked, the happier they became, and their feelings heated up rapidly. When the moon was in the middle of the sky, Ye Xu felt that the time was almost up, so he asked quietly, "Hey, did you hear something?"

His mysterious attitude immediately aroused the shopkeeper's interest: "What?"

At this time, the store owner had already drunk himself with barbecued meat and wine, and just now he couldn't help telling Ye Xu that the aborigines next to his house would secretly meet the widow at the other end of the camp at night. Obviously, he is so tight at the moment, and his mouth is very loose, what he wants to ask must be taken advantage of this opportunity to ask quickly.

"I also heard it from others. I don't know if it's true or not, so don't tell me." Ye Xu deliberately tried to indulge his appetite, and he didn't tell the truth directly.

This made the shopkeeper anxious, and the person who drank the wine was impatient, and he wished Ye Xu could speak quickly. It is best to be concise and clear in one sentence, instead of hesitating and chirping, come up with a "long story at this time".

Ye Xu put it away when he saw it, and said directly: "I heard people say that an adventurer came to the Rose Camp a few days ago to look for rare herbs, but he couldn't find them. As a result, he stayed for a few nights and went back. It's not right. Some are dumbfounded, as if their brains are broken."

He exaggerated the matter, so as to meet the characteristics of gossip. Generally, such rumors are more and more exaggerated, and it is the same as three people becoming tigers. If his gossip sounds too banal, it's not appealing.

Sure enough, the shop owner slapped his thigh when he heard this: "Which guy spread this? It's too exaggerated! I've seen people who came back to our camp and became a little stunned, but it's just a little bit, it's not eye-catching at all. .It's not like losing your soul when you become dumb and stupid, everyone believes that."

Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered that Ye Xu was his father, the financial master, and quickly changed his words to remedy: "Actually, people from outside the city who don't know the situation are understandable to believe this kind of nonsense. I heard that there are really such powerful things out there. Makes people stupid. But small places like ours don't exist anymore.

Ye Xu waved his hand indifferently, and asked enthusiastically: "Is this really happening? Tell me what happened, I'm so curious. You don't know, that stupid guy is just like me. I took this herbal quest, which made me a little afraid that I would become like him."

"Don't be afraid, it's not a big deal." The shop owner understood him very well, and he didn't laugh at him for being timid, but explained it very intimately, "Actually, we don't know exactly why this happened, and there were also people in our camp. There have been a few people with these symptoms. Some are adventurers, some are camp villagers, but they all recovered after ten days without any sequelae."

He explained the situation of those people in detail. It is said that those who have this situation entered the forest alone that day. After they came out, everyone found that something was wrong with them, and they didn't know exactly when this situation occurred, and what happened before it appeared.

When ten days arrive, everyone will be completely healed. For them, the previous ten days were like a dream, and that feeling was wonderful, as if the soul was separated by a glass cover, and on the tenth day, the cover was broken, and their witty brains finally saw the light of day, no longer dull.

"We also asked them where they went before the accident and what they encountered. Unfortunately, no one remembers it. They all said that they seemed to have encountered a snake, but they didn't know what it was and what it looked like." The owner said regretfully, He was still curious as to why this disease occurred, but unfortunately no one has been able to answer it for so many years.

When Ye Xu heard "snake", his first reaction was Rasman snake. That large group of densely packed snakes is really too existential, Ye Xu can still recall the scene that can make a person with intensive phobia die on the spot.

It's really hard to tell if this snake is a living creature, Ye Xu suspected that it might be a summoned creature. The fallen mages who can summon the undead are essentially summoners, and many of them will summon all kinds of strange dark creatures, such as **** three-headed dogs, undead knights and the like.

Although Rasman was dead, since he could leave so many resurrection formations to do things after his death, it was not impossible to leave a bunch of summoned snakes behind. This can also explain why the snake will not explode equipment and gold coins, and the death of the summoned creature itself does not drop, it is good to give you experience. And the fact that corpses refresh so quickly is also a major feature of summoned creatures.

There are many kinds of snakes in the forest. It stands to reason that Ye Xu should not associate it with the Rasman snake, but it is too coincidental. Moreover, Rasman is a necromancer, and his summoned creatures are also undead creatures, and some strange negative effects are unknown.

Ye Xu speculated that those who were recruited were likely to encounter a group of snakes by chance, but when they killed the snakes, they were infected by the curse or death energy of the snakes, which finally caused them to react slowly. This slight curse was akin to a slight poisoning, and if Corey hadn't found the poison in his son's body, he wouldn't be so frowning. The known is not scary, people are afraid of the unknown.

"Since it can be done in ten days, then I can rest assured." Ye Xu made a sigh of relief, coaxed the shopkeeper, and then asked some other gossip about the camp, lest the shopkeeper realize that he was actually just rushing Came with a strange disease.

The more the shopkeeper talked, the happier he became, and he kept drinking. In the past, he drank while eating barbecued meat, but now that the meat was finished, he began to drink like crazy, so he was completely drunk in no time. Ye Xu sent him back to the store to close the door for him, and he used the returning stone to return to the town.

There is no need to stay here to investigate, he already probably knows the truth. As for whether what he speculates is 100% true to the facts, it will be known by how many task rewards Corey gives. He remembered that this task was scored and rewarded according to the degree of completion, and the system scoring was the best reference.

However, Corey gave him another serial mission, and Ye Xu did not go directly to the other party after returning to the city.

He still remembered the tragic situation in Mobei before, because he couldn't help eating a bowl of supper noodles at night, and was forced to boil a whole page to finish the time-limited task. Ye Xu would never do such a stupid thing, it was already very late, he was going to bed.

After staying up until 12 o'clock today, Ye Xu inevitably woke up late the next day.

If he doesn't sleep more than 12:00, he will be unable to get up in the morning. It mainly depends on his sleep status in the past few days. It's okay if it's just an occasional late night, but if you've been up late for a few days, it's going to be hard in the morning.

When he woke up and looked at the time at ten in the morning, Ye Xu was still a little stunned, but he didn't expect to wake up in the middle of the morning. After washing up and eating breakfast, and then looking at the time, Ye Xu thought that he didn't need to eat lunch.

But on second thought, he had indeed skipped lunch for several days. I have been soaking in the game all the time, relying entirely on nutrient solution instead of lunch to provide energy to the body.

He stretched his waist and climbed into the game cabin, thinking that after this busy period of just starting the server, he must pull his brothers to eat three meals on time. The lunch made by the chef at home is so delicious, it is a pity not to eat it, and the nutrient solution has no taste, how can it be comfortable to eat.

After going online, he appeared in the house he rented. Last night, he used the Huicheng Stone to go directly back to the small courtyard, and then he went offline, and he didn't have time to enter the house to find a bed. Fortunately, the game characters don't need to sleep in a bed. Because of this, many players regard the purchase of a house in the game as a hot money, and it is a fool's work.

Ye Xu didn't think it was anything, he didn't lack the rent, and he was willing to rent a house for himself and it was nothing to do with others.

His family lived in the villa area and travel was not so convenient, and there was no food street around at all. Renting a yard with a good environment in the game will not prevent him from chasing variety shows and reading novels, and he can go out and go shopping with Tangtang to taste all kinds of delicacies. These days are simply immortal.

In reality, how can salted fish be so cool in the game? It's fun to have anything in the game, and the joy of living in a small courtyard, those people can't imagine it at all.

For example, now, Ye Xu is too lazy to take the initiative to find an NPC to hand in a quest. It wasn't him who was anxious to get angry. Couldn't Corey visit him in person for his precious son?

So Ye Xu moved a rocking chair and placed it in the picturesque yard, lying under the shade of a tree and rocking it leisurely. The kid in the neighbor's house who was playing around all day was stopped by him and exchanged a bag of candy until the kid agreed to help him send a message to Corey, so Ye Xu could rest assured and wait for someone to come to the door.

Corey was really anxious. After hearing that Ye Xu was looking for him, he hurried over after getting rid of his friends to help him look after the ship. Ye Xu got up from the rocking chair when he heard the footsteps, and sat down on the stone table in the courtyard.

Don't make Corey feel like he's at ease, or the old father, who is worried about his son, may be dissatisfied. So Ye Xu pretended to be serious and serious, and let the messy hair that was rubbed by the rocking chair stick up like this, and there were sweat beads from the sun on his forehead - after all, there is currently no shade on the stone table and it is being covered by the sun. Direct shot - looks like it has just come back from outside the city.

Corey didn't suspect Ye Xu was lazy at all, he didn't even know that Ye Xu actually came back last night. Seeing Ye Xu, before he had time to greet him, he asked eagerly, "How is it? Has it been found out? Is Saiya still alive?!"

"The investigation came out." Ye Xu raised his hand to wipe his sweat, "Sit down first and drink some water."

Then he took out two glasses of juice and took a big sip first, but he was actually thirsty.

Corey didn't waste time pushing him to be polite.

"I found the evil snake group left by the necromancer in the forest next to the Rose Camp." Ye Xu organized the language to obscure the existence of Rathman, "the adventurer of the Rose Camp said that these snake groups were cursed, Those who have been bitten by it, or those who have been in contact with them for too long, may be cursed. There have been adventurers and the aborigines of the Rose Camp who have the same situation as Saiya, and they are all without exception. He recovered after ten days."

Ye Xu deliberately said that the adventurer told him the clue, because Corey had prejudice against the people in Rose Camp. Corey wouldn't necessarily believe it if he said the Aboriginal people at Camp Rose had told him. After all, there are still five or six days before the ten-day deadline. It is not easy for Corey to wait quietly and obediently for five or six days. For a father who loves his son, he cannot accept any slight danger.

He might be thinking, what if Corey isn't doing well after ten days? What if Corey wasn't in trouble with these snakes? What if Camp Rose deliberately deceived them and ended up missing Saiya's best treatment period for the past ten days, causing Saiya to be powerless?

There were too many possibilities for Corey to gamble. At that time, he may rather take Corey to other places to find help from priests and pharmacists, rather than wait quietly - and thinks that Ye Xu did not try his best to help him investigate the situation, but easily believed the one-sided action of Rose Camp. Rhetoric, is an untrustworthy rash boy, so he withheld Ye Xu's quest reward.

Even if it was confirmed five days later that what Ye Xu said was true, but by that time Ye Xu had already reached level 20, who would care about the rewards that a level 10 mission would supply to him? The same reward is only valuable in the early stage of the game, and it is not necessary when the level is high.

In order to avoid extracurricular branches, Ye Xu did not tell the truth. Anyway, he was 90% sure that the shop owner didn't lie to him, and the remaining 10% risk was nothing to do.

He can't spend two or three days in Rose Camp for a mission, find several NPCs to establish a good relationship, just to confirm the authenticity of a certain news? With this kung fu, he might as well give up Saiyan's mission and come back to do something else, and the benefits will definitely be several times higher.

Corey didn't know Ye Xu's little abacus. He was still a little worried after hearing the news, but he was relieved in the end. At least he only played saiah not the only one with this and everyone else healed.

Seeing this, Ye Xu struck while the iron was hot: "According to my speculation, he is likely to be slightly cursed by the undead. If you are worried, you might as well find the priests in the temple. They have the ability to dispel the curse, and they may be able to fight against the game. Yasheng helped him get better ahead of time."

If even the priest is helpless, then Ye Xu is also helpless. At least take Saiya to see the priest, just in case, the risk of the last 10% is wirelessly reduced.

This proposal really won Corey's heart, he pondered for a while, and finally made up his mind: "I'm going to take Saiah to the secondary main city, and the priest there can definitely solve the curse on Saiah."

In fact, he took Sai Ya to the priest's temple in Liuquan Town before, but unfortunately the priest here did not find any abnormality. He was in a hurry when he had no clue before, but now that he understands that there is a high probability that the curse is at work, he can finally calm down and think about countermeasures.

Fallen leaves is right, only a curse can do this, it can make the priest with insufficient strength not aware of it, and it can also make the pharmacist make sure that there is no toxin in Saiya's body. It must be a curse!

"Thank you very much, Law of the Fallen Leaves." Corey looked at Ye Xu sincerely, "You helped me a lot and made you run around for Saiyan's affairs for so long, I feel very sorry."

Ye Xu showed a professional smile: "Helping others is my hobby, you don't have to. And I'm not unpaid at all, so you should just pay me to hire me."

He said this mainly to remind Corey not to patronize and thank him, and to come up with some practical benefits. Don't think that he won't be paid for speaking a lot of heartfelt words. Think beautifully. But in Corey's ears, it was a completely different meaning. Corey felt that Ye Xu didn't want to make himself feel that he owed others, and used the employment relationship to weaken his contribution. It was really considerate and kind-hearted.

After such a brainstorming, Corey was even more moved, and he decided to repay Ye Xu with the most generous reward. Such a good person can't make him suffer.

then--

[Congratulations to the player for completing the blue task "Exploring the Rose Camp", obtaining 10 gold coins, 75% experience, 25 achievement points, and the item [Skill Book Priest Shield]. 】

Ok? ? ? Mage shield skill out? !

Ye Xu was instantly overjoyed, and hurriedly took a closer look - it's the priest's shield. Priest shield can only be used by priests, summoners can't learn it, but mage shields can be learned.

Ye Xu: Indifference.jpg

As soon as Corey left, he sent the screenshot of the skill book to Mo Bei, and added: "How much are you going to spend on it?"

Mo Bei was overjoyed, and without saying a word, he sent over his chat account and asked Ye Xu to add it. Ye Xu didn't understand what he was doing, but he added it anyway. As a result, just after the addition, Mo Bei directly transferred 100,000 yuan to him. Their chat app is a combination of financial accounts and chat communication, which is equivalent to the combination of Zhifubao and Koukou.

"..." Ye Xu transferred the money back speechlessly, Mo Bei, a idiot, really had a lot of money.

"Why don't you want my money?" Mo Bei applied for a call, and he asked impatiently after connecting, with a puzzled tone, "I don't need money, you don't have to be polite to me."

Ye Xu said expressionlessly: "But I'm not short of money."

Mo Bei thought this was very tricky, he couldn't think of any other way to repay Ye Xu other than transfer money. The priest shield and the mage shield are very expensive at this stage, and he doesn't have any suitable game items to give to Ye Xu, only money.

In the end, Ye Xu had no choice but to say, "You owe me two big meals now. You should put it on the account first, and remember to pay it back when you have gold coins." Of course, Mo Bei nodded like pounding garlic, and repeatedly said that he would definitely invite him to eat the most expensive and best food. .

After finishing the call, he still couldn't hold back the cheap words to Ye Xu: "Leaves, do you think you are very popular with me? Ever since I met you, I have never lacked top-quality equipment and skills. Don't say anything else. , As far as the roll technique we first teamed up with, it was the first time I rolled with such a high score, I think it sucked your European spirit."

Ye Xu: "Haha."

He doesn't want to promote this two fools at all, okay? He still lacks a shield himself, so why is it cheap.

After sending the talker Mobei away, Ye Xu returned to the rocking chair to lie down, but he was thinking about Saiya and the snake group. Saiya himself, of course, has nothing to do with Rasman, he is mainly thinking about this task.

The mission would hook up with Lessman, which I always thought was not a mere coincidence. In fact, it is easy to draw a conclusion by reverse derivation: people with the condition of Saiya have a high probability of coming into contact with the Rhythmian snake, so this disease can be used to determine the location of the Rhythmian snake, so as to obtain more snake bones.

Originally, Ye Xu thought that it would be difficult to deal with Rasman's snakes. If there were not a large number of snake groups for him to study the law, he would not be able to find where the "lock" was. Now it has provided him with an idea, but unfortunately this curse is too weak, not as easy to detect as those obvious diseases, so relying on it to find the Lesman snake is not easy, it still has to rely on luck.

However, adding tasks is different. Corey issued a quest for the curse in Saiyan to let players explore the place where the Rasman snake appeared. Then there may be similar exploration quests in other areas, and the collection quest will be easier than the discovery of the sick.

It's a pity that after Yeyin Guild calmed Liuquan as a gathering place, all those guild members rushed over one after another. They have no one in other towns and can't trigger the mission. It is unrealistic to rely on one or two people to search the city. With so many NPCs, it is difficult to find the target NPC.

In short, Rasman's bone cane can't be found. It's good to ask my brother to send someone to pay attention to the relevant information. It's better not to spend too much energy on this.

After Ye Xu's analysis, he felt that he was wasting time. He took another look at his level 13 experience, which was 75%, and the highest level on the list was only level 15. He suddenly didn't want to move. After sending his brother about the bone cane to give them a headache, Ye Xu decided to take a rest and upgrade in the afternoon.

He summoned Tangtang and Xiaoling, and let Xiaoling play in the yard by himself. It's a pity that there are no butterflies in such a beautiful yard, just let Xiaoling fill in the blank. Tangtang became his special sofa. It could also learn from the rocking chair to manipulate its jelly body to make a jelly cradle, successfully making Ye Xu give up the rigid rocking chair.

Life is so beautiful, it would be even better if the shadows could be released together. Although the shadow has no ornamental value and practical value, you can show him the performance of fluttering butterflies with Xiaoling.

Just when Ye Xu was getting more and more decadent and was about to fall asleep in the jelly cradle, the system announcement rang in everyone's ears again, causing thousands of waves.

[System Announcement: The 100th level 15 player has appeared on the Huaguo server, the conditions are met, and the currency trading system is about to open! 】

[System Announcement: The currency trading system is open, the Huaguo server will be maintained for one hour, and the currency trading system can be used after the maintenance is over! 】

[System announcement: The system maintenance countdown is 5 minutes. Please log off in time to avoid unnecessary losses. The game will be restarted at 12:00 noon! 】

Ye Xu's eyes widened, so the krypton gold system won't be activated until the top 100 people reach level 15? What kind of unnecessary weird rule is this?

Although his heart was full of complaints, Ye Xu quickly got offline. One hour of maintenance, nothing to do, just go to lunch. Although he is not very hungry, as long as the lunch is delicious, he should be able to eat a little more.

Thinking of a delicious lunch, Ye Xu immediately put aside the launch of the krypton gold function. This function is a good thing for him, as long as he can turn it on, he thinks so much about it.
