Online game: Play as a hammer assassin

Ezreal is searching for an evil Darkin!

Jun Quxie's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He feigned composure and asked, "Great explorer, I know exactly where that Darkborn is. However, I'd like to know why you're looking for him?"

Jun Quxie shrugged and continued, "As far as I know, this Dark One is kind-hearted, generous, and helps the poor and needy. He loves to fight injustice and help the old, weak, sick, and young. His words and actions are always filled with the light of justice, making us ordinary people feel ashamed."

"As one of his admirers, I feel it's necessary for me to first ascertain whether you harbor any ill will towards him before deciding whether to tell you where he is?"

Jun Quxie's eloquent and righteous words left Ezreal in awe and full of admiration.

Looking at the oppressive dark clouds on the horizon, Yize muttered to himself, "So this is how you can praise yourself. I was so shallow."

While reflecting on his own shallowness, Ezreal also clearly realized that the Darkin in front of him, disguised with a hen's headgear, was not the kind of murderous monster that had lost its self-awareness and whose body was controlled by Darkin weapons.

Ezreal is not a bloodthirsty person.

On the contrary, he was kind, which is why he was favored by the forest and became an "Eternal Forest".

“As long as that Darkborn does not commit morally reprehensible acts or engage in wanton killing, I will have no ill will towards him.”

"I am quite interested in his weapons."

"As an explorer, recording the interesting people and events of the Black Earth continent is my lifelong pleasure. I want to compile his information into 'The Footprints of the Legendary Ize'."

Given this, Jun Quxie had no reason to refuse a powerful figure.

“I swear on my life that the Darkborn is no villain.”

"All I know is that the Darkin often carries a warhammer."

"Just like this warhammer."

Jun Quxie raised his broken hammer.

Ezreal's eyes lit up when he saw the Ruined King's Hammer: "Wow, it's a hammer! I have to write this down."

"System: Your appearance and name have been included in 'The Footprints of the Legendary Ezreal,' and your name will shine across the ends of the earth, following in Ezreal's footsteps."

This wave of huge profits.

Jun Quxie was well aware of Ezreal's influence on the Black Earth Continent.

Handsome and rich, a darling of magic, and without any faction affiliation, he is simply the object of everyone's affection.

Following in his footsteps, Jun Quxie believed he could gain prestige in many regions or cities for free.

Reputation is precisely the key to interacting with NPCs later in the game.

If your reputation doesn't meet the requirements, the intelligent NPCs will completely ignore you.

Ezreal closed "The Footprints of the Legendary Ezreal," looked up at Jun Quxie, and revealed his signature sunny smile: "Please tell that Darkin for me that I hope he can learn from his predecessor, the Darkin Shadow Kayn, and use the evil power of the Darkin to bless the continent."

"Thank you for your kindness, great explorer. I will certainly live up to your expectations and pass on these words to him."

Ezreal was very pleased with Jun Quxie's humility and politeness.

"It was nice meeting you. Pleasant times always fly by, my weakling friend. Goodbye for now."

Ezreal chanted an incantation, and a massive amount of magical power surged through his body.

In an instant, golden light representing the elements of time and space gathered around him.

"Arcane Leap".

A long-distance teleportation spell.

Just as Ezreal was leaving, Jun Quxie suddenly called out, "Wait, Mr. Explorer."

"Anything else?"

Seeing that Ezreal hadn't stopped casting Arcane Shift, he hurriedly said, "I'd like to trade something with you."

Jun Quxie knew that Ezreal was an explorer who had visited many ancient sites, and even the ruins of the burial god deep in the desert, which he had entered and exited several times.

Therefore, Ezreal has many strange and unusual items.

Each pocket on his body was a huge storage bag, filled with treasures.

Jun Quxie wasn't greedy; he only wanted a small key, an essential item for Ezreal's journey through the wilderness.

Ezreal's magical surge suddenly subsided. He paused his spellcasting and looked at Jun Quxie curiously: "What kind of deal do you want to make with me?"

In his eyes, Jun Quxie was too weak.

Although the Dark Ones are very powerful, that's after they've reached their full potential. Jun Quxie doesn't have the leverage to make a deal with them now.

What can you offer?

Under Ezreal's curious gaze, Jun Quxie took out thirteen eggs.

The loot from killing the Blood Corpse Scarecrow: thirteen crow eggs.

Jun Quxie had absolutely no idea how to use these thirteen crow eggs.

Discarding it is too much to bear; eating it is too wasteful; but hatching it is beyond my knowledge.

I was completely speechless.

All Jun Quxie could produce were these crow eggs, but he did have ten gold coins in his backpack.

But Ezreal has no shortage of gold; it's the strange things with no apparent use that pique his interest.

"This is... a crow's egg??"

"I sensed a hint of fear."

Ezreal took a crow egg from Junquxie's hand and examined it closely.

"Could it be... Fiddlesticks' pet, a descendant of the killer crow?"

He truly deserves to be called the most renowned explorer on the mainland.

“They are indeed descendants of killer crows. I killed one of the humans in Feddick and obtained these thirteen eggs. I cannot hatch these crow eggs, nor can I bear to throw them away, so I have kept them until now.”

Ezreal chuckled. "Of course you can't hatch these crow eggs. They need fear as a breeding ground and life force to grow. Tell me, my friend, what do you want to trade these crow eggs for?"

Jun Quxie said, "I would like to exchange it for a small item you use when traveling in the wilderness, a copper key."

The copper key can open a mysterious copper chest in the wilderness.

These bronze chests may contain equipment, skill books, gold coins, or another type of key.

Of course, the copper box may also contain unseen, sealed monsters.

Jun Quxie's request piqued Ezreal's interest: "Could it be that you also want to become an explorer?"

"Who wouldn't want to be an explorer?"

Jun Quxie's tone carried three parts regret, three parts nostalgia, and three parts fabrication.

"Once, I dreamed of wandering the world with a sword, to see its splendor; youthful heart is always a bit reckless, now I have no home to call my own; the girl who once broke my heart has vanished without a trace; the life of wandering has always filled me with longing and sorrow, leaving me battered and bruised; now, having experienced all the ups and downs of life, all I want is to see the sea alone and listen to the stories of explorers..."

Ezreal's adventures had never been so difficult, but along the way he had met many people like the ones Jun Quxie spoke of, who had the stars in their hearts but were trapped by what they were doing.

“My weakling friend, your passion hasn’t cooled, and your future is promising. I’m willing to give you ten bronze keys.”

"System: You have lost ten crow eggs."

"System: You have obtained ten bronze keys."

"Bronze Key: Forged by a master blacksmith, it has the ability to open bronze chests in the wilderness."

Jun Quxie was overjoyed to receive ten bronze keys.

He thought he could only switch to another one.

In fact, not even one can be exchanged.

"Thank you very much, generous explorer."

Ezreal smiled gently: "You're welcome, you deserve it."

There are also three crow eggs…

Well……

Jun Quxie: "I have three useless crow eggs here, sir. I would like to give them to you so that the crow brothers can be reunited."

"Hahaha, you're such an interesting person."

"However, I cannot take your crow eggs for nothing."

"Here's another little thing for you."

Jun Quxie now had another contract scroll in his hand.
