How to break the hatred value locked by the boss

Chapter 2 The Wanted Criminal in the Black Forest

I finally managed to escape the medical room with Dick and returned to the bustling Xinshou Village Street. I suddenly felt the excitement of being a human being again. Unfortunately, I only had three copper coins left in my wallet, so I had to temporarily delay buying a few guides. Butterfly's oath, I went to Aunt Mulla to hand in the task.

Ten rabbit skins were exchanged for twenty copper coins and ten red berries. Because this is the most basic task, I can't hope that I will get any more valuable rewards.After handing in the quest, I stood contemplatively by the bulletin board in the Xinshou Village Square, looking for any other quests that were within my capabilities.

One of the more humane aspects of "The Lost City" is that all common branch and main quests will be posted on the bulletin board in the town square, preventing players from disturbing the work and life of NPCs like headless chickens - after all, There is really no difference in appearance between the NPC and the player in this game, and there is no question mark or exclamation mark on the head of the NPC with a mission like other games for players to identify.What's even more outrageous is that if you break into private houses and disturb NPCs too many times, it will be mistaken for a crime!

Of course, like other games, there is also a type of hidden mission in the game that will not be posted on the bulletin board openly. This type of mission will be triggered by the player's RP or acuity. For example, if you take a Jars of Good Wine go to the old alcoholic in the east of Xinshou Village, and drink and chat with him, then a hidden quest to find a peerless weapon will be triggered.It's a pity that such hidden tasks are limited in number or even unique. When I went to the old drunkard with a jar of wine, I got nothing at all, and the first one The lucky ones who triggered the hidden quest gloated mercilessly.

Yes, there's no doubt that the guy who got the shit was Dick.

[Dick: When will we go and finish my hidden mission together?I've been thinking about that peerless weapon for a long time, and it hurts my heart...] The message icon flashed, I looked down at the message, and then turned to glance at Dick who was winking at me.This guy looks rough, but he also knows that this kind of thing can't be said in public, otherwise it will be easy to be envied and hated by the general public. I am very relieved.

[Xia Yin: Wait until we are all level 10, before leaving Novice Village.Although the location of the hidden mission is in Novice Village, it must be difficult. I don't want to accompany you to contribute to the medical room meaninglessly. ] I replied quickly.

Dick lowered his head, and even his arrogant red hair drooped listlessly, but unfortunately, no matter how he pretended to be pitiful, it was useless to me.

After solving Dick, I continued to search for tasks on the bulletin board, and began to choose between killing one bull and killing ten wild cats—of course, the so-called "cows", "wild cats" and "rabbits" are the same, They are all nicknames given to monsters by the majority of players. After all, no one has the time to memorize those weird and awkward scientific names.

In the end, I chose to kill wild cats. Although there are more of them, they can be slowly grinded like killing rabbits. As for the bulls with thick skin, high blood and strong attack power, I don’t think I have the ability to covet them at the moment. .

After choosing the task, I felt relieved, and turned around to greet Dick, but suddenly saw a new notice on the reward board next to the notice board.

Different from the PVE missions on the notice board, most of the reward boards are PVP missions. If the player does something that violates the "law" of the game, such as murder or robbery, it will be advertised here for those who want to The player who earns the bounty chooses.Players named on the bounty column will drop a blood coat after death. If you take the blood coat and turn in the reward task, you will get a lot of money rewards, which is a shortcut to getting rich.It's a pity that I've always been a pacifist, in other words, I'm a handicapped PVP party, so things like bounty boards have always been out of my reach...

But this time, the notice on the bounty board that caught my attention reminded me of the blue light that sent me straight to the medical room not long ago.

【Reward】

Name: Igerus

Race: Mixed blood of human race and demon race,

Level strength: level 75 magic swordsman, ice attribute seven-star enchanted weapon, dark attribute six-star enchanted armor Appearance characteristics: hair color - silver, pupil color - red, body shape - tall

Crime: Murdered the clan minister Yigu's family and escaped from the prison of the king's capital of the human race

Whereabouts: currently wandering around the Black Forest area

Bounty: Execution - 10 gold coins, telling whereabouts clues - 500 gold coins

——Isn't this just like the old man just now?I suddenly felt a pain in the flesh. If I hadn't lost my way and didn't know where I was, I would already be a rich man with 500 gold coins at this moment!

I covered my face in pain, and fell limply on Dick's shoulder. I had to accept the reality that I was back to shit luck anyway, but I had to watch the reality of luck passing away.

Nima, this is more uncomfortable than not letting me see luck at all!

"...Xia Yin, what's wrong with you?" Dick looked at me convulsively for no reason.

"I don't feel like I'll love anymore..." I murmured, my eyes glazed over.

Dick couldn't figure it out, and finally threw me aside decisively, and turned around to take over the task of killing ten rabbits.

"I've done that, I'm going to kill wild cats next." I quickly cheered up from my depression, "Aren't you going to kill cats with me?"

"Pick the soft persimmons first." Dick glanced at me with confidence, "With your small body, you can't kill the cat by yourself. You'd better wait until I finish killing the rabbit!"

"Your sister!" I stared fiercely at his coquettish back, but I had to agree with Dick's words.

Although my movements are nimble, my health bar is horribly low. If I don't cheat like killing rabbits, the outcome of facing the wild cats is about five to five—I don't want to kill ten wild cats at all, but I want to kill ten wild cats. Going to the infirmary five times is not worth the candle!

Or should I abandon Dick, the stupid guy who is always holding me back, and find other players to form a team to kill wild cats?This thought flashed through my mind and then disappeared. Anyway, I just play games for fun, and the rankings are just floating clouds. Once I think about how crazy Dick will be if I abandon Dick and form a team with someone else I think it will probably be a nightmare!

In desperation, I had no choice but to put aside the task of killing wild cats for the time being, and took a few small circular branches that most players dismissed, such as picking herbs and picking nuts, which are not even considered low-level tasks, and once again plunged into it. Into the black forest to pass the time.

The products in the Black Forest are plentiful, and there are very few people who pick up such collection tasks, so it didn’t cause me any trouble. Of course, I didn’t forget to spend 10 copper coins to buy one before entering the Black Forest to do the task alone. Guide butterfly, I don't have to be afraid of getting lost and I can't go back to Xinshou Village. I am more confident.

Keeping the targets to be collected in my mind, I looked at the scenery and collected things all the way, wandering aimlessly in the black forest. When the number of collected items was almost the same, I also received a text message from Dick, Deser He said that he had successfully killed the rabbit, and he also pushed down a bull with a team of people, and now his level has surpassed me.

I silently looked at the bag of nuts, mushrooms and herbs and sighed—every time Dick has something that makes me want to beat him up...

Stretching for a while, Shi Shiran, who didn't know where I was again, released the guiding butterfly and headed towards Xinshou Village. Because there is no road in the forest, the way the guiding butterfly moves forward is a straight line. I can easily recognize that at this moment I am In the southeast of Novice Village.

...Obviously I remember that I walked all the way to the north when I left Xinshou Village. Could it be an illusion?

Lightly following behind the leading butterfly, I silently calculated, although this collection mission did not allow me to earn any experience points, but the collection technique has improved, and the money obtained after handing in the mission is also considered Money is not so tight.When I think of money, my thoughts involuntarily turn back to the harsh sentence in the reward column [Tell me whereabouts clues - 500 gold coins], I think, it may take a long, long time before I can fully recover from this huge blow .

Maybe it was because I thought too much, or even felt too heartbroken. I suddenly seemed to see a hallucination. In the hallucination, the smooth long silver hair and the blue enchanted weapon were so realistic that I stopped subconsciously.

Then, after an hour, 34 minutes and 28 seconds, I stood silently on the branch of the tree and I looked at the pair of cold red eyes under the tree again.

"... Where do I seem to have seen you?" The hallucination—no, it should be said that the wanted criminal Igelus was thinking.

I am speechless.

This guy just killed me an hour and a half ago, and now he can't remember? !I deeply doubt whether the programmer who created him mistyped the code with a trembling hand, making his brain area responsible for short-term memory useless.

——I absolutely do not admit that this is because my own sense of existence is too low!

Apparently, a certain NPC with a suspected hippocampus damage didn't seem to intend to pay attention to this meaningless familiarity. When I turned my head and tried to escape like burning my butt, the blue sword light came as unceremoniously as before. to.

Then, I went back to the medical room.

Congratulations to NPC Yigelus for completing the double kill on player Xia Yin!I gritted my teeth and crouched on the bed in the medical room, and opened the system menu.

[Xia Yin: Dick!Hurry up and come to the medical room to send me the consultation fee! 】

[Dick: =333=Honey, you know, I'm really short of money...] [Xia Yin: How can you be so cold-blooded!We are friends!A friend who can do both! 】【Dick: ...why does this sentence look so familiar? 】

[Xia Yin: Nonsense, this is your famous saying, I haven't changed a single word! 】

After working hard in the medical room for a long time, Dick finally came late in my anticipation.After stepping out of the threshold of the medical room, I ignored Dick's teasing and teasing about the length of my blood bar as usual, and went straight to the NPC next to the reward column.

"Sir, I've found the whereabouts of the wanted man Igelus! He's in Novice Village—ah no, I mean he's in..." I turned my head to look at the name of the village at the top of the reward list, "Fuerta Southeast of the village!"

"Thank you for your notification, kind adventurer, I will send someone to check immediately." The NPC next to the reward column smiled kindly.

"...Then what about the bounty?" I looked at him anxiously.

"After we confirm that your information is correct, the bounty will be mailed to your mailbox." The NPC's answer is very official.

"...then you have to be faster, that target can move..." Thinking of Igerus' level and speed, I felt a little desperate for a moment.

"You have to believe in our ability." The NPC said seriously.

... If you were really capable, that bounty would never have appeared... I slandered silently, and turned away from the bounty bar wearily.

"What happened?" Dick looked at me curiously.

"I just had a chance to become a millionaire." I ruffled my hair.

"...Then the opportunity was missed?" Dick looked regretful.

"...No, it should be said that there is still a chance now, but we need to fight for RP." I sighed, hoping that not only the short-term memory area of ​​the brain is impaired, but also the IQ is not high. , After killing someone, he did not escape quickly, but still lingered at the scene of the murder.

"Since it's an RP fight, don't think too much about it." Dick raised his hand and patted my shoulder, reassuring.

"Yeah, now I've done my best, and I'm just waiting to obey the destiny." I nodded in agreement.

"No, what I mean is that your RP has never been high, so it's easier to just pretend that you missed the opportunity." Dick said sincerely.

"...Fuck off!"
