Chapter 349 The First Epic Mission NPC
Green didn't fully believe Mitchell's words.

Although Green confirmed that Mitchell was not lying through magic, this does not mean that the truth she said she knew was really the truth!What if she was also deceived?

But even if Mitchell really lied, the part of the lie that can be verified is probably true—for example, after Green kills the player, the part that the player cannot be resurrected is likely to be true, because this one Green can go to Verify it, but the rest may be difficult to distinguish between true and false.

For Green, it is undoubtedly lucky to meet Mitchell.No matter how much of what Mitchell said was true or false, this information could still save Green a lot of wrongdoing, thus saving a lot of time and energy.

Not only that, Green also learned from Mitchell how many aboriginals understand players.

The birth of the player = a divine creature created by the gods.

The memory and personality of the player = the external pollution during the birth process.

Players are limited by the system = the rules set by the creator for divine creatures.

……

In the prayer room, under the watchful eyes of Mother Earth, Mitchell perfectly explained the existence of the player from the perspective of the aborigines using some phenomena that exist in the world of Io.

What puts a lot of pressure on Green is that these explanations from Mitchell are valid even in the game.In other words, even if the "time locusts" mentioned by Mitchell are really "players" and people on earth are invading the world of Io through "games", Mitchell's theory can still be established.

So here comes the question: Are those players a group of heroic spirits with the memories of people on Earth?Or "plane invaders" manipulated by a group of earthlings?
Although Green personally prefers the former, the possibility of the latter does not seem to be completely zero.

After the two parties formed an alliance, Mitchell began to explain to Green the various precautions in this world, and told Green how to use the "heart barrier".

"Time locusts, as creations, are not perfect, they are an existence between 'false' and 'reality', so they are easily affected by the mind. We exist as 'real', as long as we hate them , reject them from the bottom of my heart, and if I don’t want to get close to them, they won’t be able to get close to us... I call this kind of power the 'wall of the heart'."

According to Mitchell, if the aborigines dislike the player (the player's favorability is too low), then a "wall of heart" will be created to prevent the player from approaching.But after listening to it, Green felt that this thing was clearly the "prestige system" that the players called it!

In the game, players cannot "unauthorized" enter other people's private areas, so it is not possible to directly run into other people's homes and rummage through boxes and cabinets like in RPG games.Not only that, if a certain NPC's favorability towards the player turns to disgust, the player will be completely unable to communicate with that NPC, or even get close to that NPC; if the reputation in a certain city turns to disgust, the player will be The whole city refuses to enter!

In the game, this is part of the reputation system, a very common setting, many games have this setting, and players have never cared about this setting, let alone the "principle" of it .

But in this real world, no matter what it is, "existence is reasonable".

Mitchell: "With the wall of heart, we are invincible against time locusts (players)! But this kind of wall of heart is not without flaws. If we want to kill those time locusts (players), then There will be holes in the wall of the heart, and at that time, not only will we be able to approach them and attack them, but they will also be able to attack us!"

To put it simply: if the reputation of the aborigines is indifferent or even disgusting, then the player cannot approach the aborigines, nor can they threaten/harm the aborigines.But if the reputation of the aborigines becomes "hostile", they will be able to launch normal attacks instead.

When Mitchell was explaining the "prestige system", Green couldn't help thinking of the situation in the game in the previous life.The more I listened, the more I felt that the situations Michelle was talking about were very similar to the settings in the game - they just changed the names, but the form of expression was exactly the same.

"So that's it...the wall of the heart? We are invincible, and we can only attack from our side. In this case, we do have the advantage." Green touched his chin, "But where did you get this information? of?"

"The Mother Goddess told me." Michelle bowed to the statue, "Although the Mother Goddess cannot directly interfere with the kingdom of another ancient god, as the mother of all things, she can still see through the nature of a group of 'worms' Easy."

Green's eyes brightened: "In other words, other gods can only observe this world, but they cannot directly interfere with this world?"

"Yes."

"And even to observe, you need to rely on the eyes of believers? Those gods who don't have believers here can't observe the world, right?"

Mitchell hesitated for a while, then nodded slightly.

"That's it... Then the situation is basically clear. So what should I do next? What do I need to do?"

"I don't know what to do." Mitchell said pitifully, "The number of locusts in those days is too many. It is difficult for me to do anything alone. And there are the gods of conspiracy and Followers of the Lady of the Sea are secretly targeting me."

"The God of Conspiracy and Ms. Ocean?" Green frowned slightly.

The world of Io is a world with true gods, and the relationship between gods has a great impact on the camp!The relationship between the Church of Mother Earth, the Church of Lady Ocean and the Church of God of Conspiracy is very bad, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are mortal enemies.

"How many people are there in total? How many of them are our enemies? How many are neutral? How many allies do we have?" Green asked.

"Theoretically, there should be 24 Time Mysteries, which correspond to the 24 hours of a day. However, there are only ten known Time Mysteries so far. Counting you, there are eleven. Among them, there are five enemies and a god of conspiracy. Assassins, three followers of the Sea Lady, and a demon warlock, and allies... Originally I had a druid friend, a warrior of the Guardian God, an ordinary farmer who believed in the God of Light, and a ferocious The giant eagle... that giant eagle also became a confuse of time due to an accident, and was tamed by the druid later."

"Well... 5V5, if you add me, it's 6V5. The giant eagle can become a good combat force if it is trained with farmers. So where are they now? When will they introduce us to each other?"

"...We were ambushed, and the giant eagle escaped with the druid, and it is now unknown whether we are alive or dead."

Green's eyes widened involuntarily: "Uh... wait, you mean, all of our teammates are dead!? There are only two of us left?"

"Yes." Mitchell nodded bitterly, "There are those evil people's familiars outside the temple, so I don't dare to leave the temple at all now. So even if a new Time Lost Child enters, I have no way of knowing. "

"... Who are the enemies left? Not one of them died, right?"

"If they didn't have internal strife. It should be... that's it."

Green: "...can you tell me in detail what happened to you?"

"Those people are really despicable!" Mitchell slowly explained the battle to Green.

To put it simply, when Mitchell and the others were about to take the farmer to the Temple of the God of Light for a "job transfer", they fell into the enemy's trap and were wiped out!The farmer who has not yet changed his job kneels in seconds, the druid is seriously injured, and the ferocious giant eagle, as the druid's "animal companion", forcibly leads the druid to break through, leaving Mitchell and a 2V5 anti-war... This is obviously not enough How to fight!

Then Fangzhan died in order to cover Mitchell, but he also managed to make Mitchell escape back to the city and hide in the sanctuary of the temple.

Anyone with a normal mind would not easily go to the temple to attack a "high priest" who is highly valued by the gods!That's not much different from facing a god's anus - although the duration is very short, the body of the high priest is already able to withstand the "god drop".

Michelle is undoubtedly safe hiding in the temple, but if Michelle dares to step out of the temple, she will probably die on the street in a few minutes!

Green bets!It is estimated that the enemy's eyeliner is everywhere outside the temple.

Green squinted his eyes and thought for a while: "Compared to players... compared to time locusts, other time fans are more threatening! After all, those time locusts only hinder the birth of new time guardians, but they do not threaten It's up to us. Then... maybe we can use the power of time locusts to kill those time losers!"

"By using the power of time locusts?" Mitchell hesitated for a while, "But if you do that, there will be holes in your mind."

"A flaw in the soul?"

If you use the player's power, you will naturally communicate with the player.If there is communication, there will be a relationship between distant and close, and it may even have a good impression on the player.But unless the favorability reaches the level of "intimacy", you can't directly touch the NPC without permission!

Green touched his chin, using the player's way of thinking to analyze the situation in front of him.

"No. No problem! Believe me." Green said to Mitchell, "I will tell you what to do. You will stay in the temple from now on, don't go out, if you need help, pay a certain price, find Those time locusts help."

"The price? But I don't have any money." A trace of embarrassment appeared on Mitchell's face.

The corners of Green's mouth turned up slightly.

"You know the points system of the Adventure Guild, right?"

"Yes." Mitchell nodded obediently.

"We will make a reputation table in that way. You can calculate the reputation value of those time locusts according to the table, and give them corresponding treatment and rewards according to the reputation value. Believe me, hiring those guys is a very cost-effective business!" Green paused, "But you must pay attention. When communicating with players, don't trust them, and keep a certain indifference and distance from them. If you think something is wrong, tell me immediately!"

Mitchell hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at the statue, as if he was communicating with something.

After a while, Michelle turned her head: "Okay, Senior Green. I listen to you."

"Hmm~ So... do you have paper and pen here? Let me use them. This is the only pair of pants I have on now." Green pointed to his pants with a wry smile on his face.

"I'm sorry, senior. Although I can use the power of the temple, in fact this temple is completely an empty shell. Not to mention paper, there is not even food."

Hearing Mitchell's words, Green was stunned!But soon, Green reacted.

"I see...then let this be the first task. Now, you go to the front hall of the temple. If there are... Well, we have to give them a new name, we can't always call them 'time locusts'. "Green thought for a while, "Well, from now on we will call ourselves 'Guardians of Time', call those 'time locusts' 'locusts of time', and call the hostile 'locusts of time' as 'time devourers', understand? ?”

"Guardians of Time?" Mitchell pointed at herself with a confused face, "But we are not Guardians of Time yet!"

"It's just a way of addressing it." Green pointed to Mitchell, "You will call yourself the 'Guardian of the Night Yeyue' in 'Guardian of Time' from now on, and 'Yeyue' is your name. I call myself the Guardian of Time "Mona the Guardian of the Day" in "Mona" is my name. Got it?"

Mitchell was confused: "...Really, do you really want to do this?"

"Of course! Using a pseudonym will also help us keep a distance from the players and prevent the relationship between the two parties from getting too close." Green paused, "This is very necessary!"

Hearing Green's words, Mitchell finally nodded: "I...I understand."

"Then, now you go to the front hall. If a player comes to talk to you, you say that you need help now, and ask him to buy some paper, pens and ink for you. If he is willing, he will gain your friendship .Well... the amount of friendship is 1 point of friendship."

"1 point of friendliness?" Mitchell blinked.

"That's right!" Green nodded vigorously, "With 1 point of friendship, I can cast a 1-level divine spell on you. Of course, you need to pay! The amount of the fee will be doubled according to the normal standard of the temple!"

Mitchell's expression was very strange: "Is...is this possible? It's fine if you don't get paid, and the cost is doubled?"

"Don't worry, your magic is worth its price. After all, what those players provide you are not real gold coins, but projection gold coins that are unique to this world and can only be used by the Mysteries of Time. Those gold coins depreciate very quickly. "

As a former player, Green certainly knows the needs and ideas of players.Gold coins are not a problem at all!
Any player with a little bit of sanity will know that friendship is harder to obtain than gold coins - usually, players burn money to get friendship.
