The Eternal Sword Master of Online Games

Lin Chen calmed down quickly. It was definitely possible to conquer the tasks that could be released, especially such non-combat tasks, but he had not found the right method yet.

Lin Chen did not rush into the witch's house again. Maybe what awaited him next time would not be to be kicked out directly, but to be turned into some strange creature first, and then kicked out again. He was originally in the village, and obtained

Information about the witch is very scarce, and the key to breaking the situation may be near the witch. There are no other NPCs living nearby, so the range of safe activities is extremely limited. Maybe there are details around the witch's house that he has not noticed.

Lin Chen looked around carefully. Located in front of the witch house was a dead tree with only a few yellow leaves left. It was in a scary posture, and there was a harmless black-feathered bird sitting on it.

Lin Chen stepped forward and knocked. It was solid, and there were no traces of plowing on the surrounding land.

Looking to the right, he saw a small vegetable garden with a scarecrow standing on it. Although the scarecrow in front of him did not make any movement, Lin Chen always felt as if he was being watched by the scarecrow.

He threw out the reconnaissance technique and found that it was a neutral monster——

【Magic Scarecrow】Lv.15

HP:???, Physical attack:???, Physical defense:???, Magic defense:???

Explanation: It seems to be a magic puppet made by the witch Salil to guard the vegetable garden. It does not have much wisdom.

Since the Scarecrow's level is five levels higher than Lin Chen's, Lin Chen cannot obtain its specific information, but it is probably not an ordinary level monster.

At the beginning, Lin Chen thought he had finally found the breakthrough point of the mission, but after feeding the scarecrow for a long time, the scarecrow tilted its head. After a while, the scarecrow turned its head back again, as if nothing had happened.

happened, leaving Lin Chen alone and messy in the wind.

I'm afraid he not only doesn't have much wisdom, he doesn't even know how to speak, right?

The witch's house was not big. Lin Chen quickly circled around the house. However, there were many strange things, but he could not find any clues related to the mission.

What exactly is the problem?

Lin Chen came to the witch's house again. The dead tree in front of the house was very unsightly. He looked up along the trunk of the dead tree and saw that it was just a harmless black-feathered bird. There was nothing unusual about it...

…

etc?

This little black-feathered bird?

A crow!

At this moment, Lin Chen vaguely felt the ridicule from the crow. This was probably not an ordinary crow!

Lin Chen threw the reconnaissance technique, but it was empty, and did not get any information feedback. The crow seemed to be aware of Lin Chen's intention, and evaded Lin Chen's reconnaissance technique by turning its body into a shadow and changing its position.

.

"wakaka!"

Crow was very satisfied with his performance and continued to taunt Lin Chen. This time, it was not only a look of ridicule, but also a sharp voice, which made Lin Chen feel a wave of negative emotions.

Lin Chen took a deep breath, calmed down, and cast another reconnaissance technique.

Lost it again.

Lin Chen got angry and got into trouble with the crow, so he kept throwing reconnaissance spells, and the crow kept dodging. The reconnaissance spell also consumed mana, and although it was very sparse, it couldn't stop him from using it constantly.

, the mana will soon be used up.

He didn't have a potion to restore mana in his backpack, and he didn't want to use it now. Lin Chen had to stop and wait for the mana to recover naturally. Of course, he also continued to receive ridicule from the crows.

Lin Chen waited patiently for five or six minutes. After recovering part of his mana, when the crow was quiet and seemed to no longer pay attention to him, he suddenly threw a reconnaissance spell - but the crow moved again!

Lin Chen was teased by the crow again.

However, at that moment, the damn crow finally spoke.

"Give up, stupid mortal."

Lin Chen muttered in his heart, why does this line sound so familiar?

The crow didn't know what Lin Chen was thinking. After a pause, it continued: "The great crow of shadow can never be seen through. Wow!"

Theoretically speaking, the key point of the mission has been activated. Lin Chen can get some information about the witch by talking to the crow. There is no need for him to continue to use reconnaissance techniques on the crow. Even if he gets the crow's information, he can't do anything for this.

Providing any convenience for the progress of the task is a waste of energy no matter how you look at it.

But Lin Chen was unconvinced, and took advantage of the crow's roar to throw out the reconnaissance technique, but as expected, he missed it again.

His actions earned Crow's dissatisfaction: "You are shameless, you attacked!"

Lin Chen ignored the crow's words and continued to follow the crow, but even if he changed to a new posture, the reconnaissance technique was still ineffective.

We must think of some more special means!

With no mana left again, Lin Chen chose to take a break and stare at the crow opposite him.

"Despicable mortal, I want to see what else you can do!"

"How about this?"

Lin Chen thought for a while and took out a fragrant roast chicken leg from his backpack. Yes, it was the golden chicken leg that he got by chance in the mine before.

The crow's mocking sound stopped abruptly. It opened its mouth and faintly transparent liquid dripped.

"Give me!"

The crow spread its wings, turned into a shadow, and quickly rushed towards the golden chicken leg in Lin Chen's hand, trying to snatch away the roasted chicken leg. But how could Lin Chen obey it? It would be better to give it back after the expiration date.

.

Lin Chen was already prepared. The moment he saw the crow's wings spread, he had already retracted his backpack, causing the crow to just flutter in the air.

"Bad guy! Bad guy!"

The crows screamed dissatisfiedly and flapped their wings around Lin Chen, no longer dodging.

It was this opportunity that Lin Chen finally successfully used the reconnaissance technique on the crow and determined that it was successful. He finally obtained some information about the crow——

[Shadow Crow·Jiji] Lv.15

Explanation: The Shadow Crow from the Shadow Island is a witness who wanders between reality and nothingness. He left the Shadow Island for some unknown reason and became the pet of the witch Salil. It knows about Salil’s body.

Many secrets.

Finally completing his obsession, Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief. As for the crow, after Jiji was stunned for a moment, he really became quiet this time.

Suddenly, his body lit up with a golden light, and the sound of system announcements echoed in his ears.

"Ding!"

"Regional announcement: Congratulations to the player [One Thousand Years of Dream] for successfully advancing his skills. He became the first player in the server to advance his skills. He received special rewards: Lucky Points +, [Mysterious Equipment Gift Box]*1."

Lin Chen was very surprised. He originally thought that competing with the crow was a complete waste of energy, but unexpectedly he received an unexpected surprise.

He quickly opened the system log and found that his gains were really amazing.

"System prompt: Since you successfully detected the existence of [Shadow Crow] and gained some insights, your [Reconnaissance Technique] has been upgraded to [Insight Technique], and you have received a system reward: experience value +1000."

"System prompt: Since you are the first player in the server to advance skills, you will receive system rewards: Eternal Silver Coins +1000, Lucky Points +, [Mysterious Equipment Gift Box]*1."

The reward of a few lucky points is enough to make Lin Chen excited, not to mention, there is also a special prop reward——

[Mysterious Equipment Gift Box] (Special Props)

Quality: Bronze

Description: The gift box of unknown origin may be a gift from the gods. After opening it, you can obtain random parts of equipment of the same level.

Of course, Lin Chen did not forget to check his skill panel. The reconnaissance technique he had before had disappeared and turned into the icon of the insight technique. The insight technique was more powerful than the reconnaissance technique in just one or two points.

Insight - can detect some monster information that appears within the player's field of vision and does not exceed the player's level 10. It can also be immune to the suppression effect of level 5 monsters. In addition, it can detect targets with low stealth levels.

The original level 5 reconnaissance level has been increased to level 10, and a passive state has been added that can be immune to the suppression effect of level 5 monsters. The most important thing is that Insight can also be used on invisible units. If used well, it can uncover hidden objects in the shadows.

of mice.

Lin Chen came back to his senses and looked at the crow next to him. He found it pleasing to his eyes. (To be continued)
