…
A brand new character card means a brand new construction direction.
Roger, who gradually understood the two-dimensional world, knew it very well.
The elf summoning flow is certainly refreshing and easy to use.
But this construction has certain flaws.
The elves work hard and like crazy.
This means they are great for steady bullying.
It is indeed very advantageous in brushing some low-level, large-scale monsters.
But when facing some extremely powerful individuals.
The drawbacks of this school gradually emerged:
That is, the triggering conditions of the "Forbidden World-Destroying Spell" are not stable enough!
About this.
Roger actually understands this deeply.
He had a lot of trouble when fighting the ancient gods before.
The attack speed increase brought by the eight elves seems insignificant in high-end battles.
Once the forbidden spell of world-destruction cannot be triggered for a short period of time.
Then Roger himself would be at great risk.
Not every enemy can be held back by Roger like the ancient evil.
so.
He has been hesitating ever since entering the Black Crystal World.
Do you want to try a different build?
Strong one-on-one ability is what Roger urgently needs right now!
This would at least ensure that he would have the strength to fight when facing a boss of Olmodo's level.
As for dealing with ordinary monsters, the speed slows down.
That is also an acceptable thing.
He doesn't lack time for the time being.
Because Roger knew it well.
Sophia and Felton will most likely be fine in the short term——
Put yourself in their shoes.
If he was Olmerdo.
He now has two of the most outstanding young men from the Celestial Clan.
Will definitely take advantage of the situation.
Using their lives to dig a huge pit for the people of the God Clan is what a mature strategist should do.
It would be a waste to simply kill it.
He believed that enemies of Olmodo's level would naturally understand this path.
Based on the above point.
Right now, I am the only one who can move freely in the Black Crystal World, and I am the thorn in Olmodo's side!
That is the most unstable factor!
Olmodo will definitely do his best to kill me.
In other words.
The road ahead of Roger is the most dangerous road.
This asymmetric confrontation was destined to be full of thorns from the beginning...
Forehead.
It is also possible that there are brothers everywhere.
He had just entered the outskirts of the Black Crystal Prison.
Naturally, the resistance encountered was not very great.
But for subsequent planning.
A completely new build is almost inevitable.
He originally decided to slowly reduce the weight of the "Elf" entry in the prop column after defeating the Shadow Clan members.
But who would have thought that the Black Crystal Will would be the first to show goodwill.
With this character card.
All of Roger's worries disappeared.
He just had to figure out how to accomplish the task.
And the construction direction after obtaining the character card!
…
See here.
Roger, who was originally full of worries, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Isn't it just killing someone?
He is very familiar with this job!
Next second.
He decided to leave the bulletin board and look for the so-called "Starlight Tavern".
But at this moment.
A line of prompts passed silently.
Roger frowned slightly.
…
"Warning: Love Town is a neutral zone. If you commit a crime in a neutral zone and are discovered, you will become the public enemy of all residents of the Sombra World!"
…
No action allowed in the neutral zone?
Roger was slightly stunned.
How can you kill people then?
Or maybe.
How to punish the murderer without anyone knowing?
Roger thinks quickly.
He instantly thought of another point——
"Since killing is not allowed in the Neutral Zone, how did this damsel in distress get hurt?"
"Does it mean that if the eyes are dug out, the tongue and ears are cut off, and then sealed up, it doesn't count as killing?"
Roger found it a little unbelievable.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems logical.
This is a two-dimensional world after all.
Although the Black Crystal World is already a two-dimensional world that is more similar to the main material world in terms of laws.
However, the rigidity of the rules will still be reflected to a certain extent.
Think of this.
Roger couldn't help but check the mission description again and again.
Confirm that the requirement for the first ring is to "kill" waiter X.
No other means will work.
"Then we can only wait until he leaves Love Town?"
Roger pondered and left the announcement area.
Next.
He was in no hurry to the Starlight Tavern.
Instead, he controlled the character's avatar and took a long walk around the bustling Love Town.
When he entered the town.
It's still noon .
It's sunny.
Wait until he finishes shopping.
Night has already fallen.
The streets are brightly lit.
The flow of people was several times larger than during the day.
By starlight.
Roger stood in front of the door of the Starlight Tavern, feeling a little tired.
Then he pushed the door open and walked in.
Not long.
He ordered some drinks and food.
I found a booth and sat down to rest.
He glanced casually around the Starlight Tavern.
The mission target, Waiter X, was easily spotted.
The other party was greeting customers at the bar.
From the appearance point of view.
He was a handsome young man with a gentle manner and a cheerful smile.
It doesn't seem easy to kill him in public without being discovered.
Roger watched for a moment.
There's no rush.
He was still digesting the intelligence he had gathered in Love Town.
This day's stroll.
Roger discovered something very interesting -
…
First.
In the town of Love.
The "Dead Silence Field" set up by the gods will not take effect.
This is because there is an eternal bonfire in the center of Love Town.
The bonfire, called the "Oasis of Fire", is protected by more than a dozen strong guards 24 hours a day.
No one dared to offend the Oasis of Fire.
Because this is what the residents of Love Town rely on for survival.
Roger found out.
There are many treasures like "Fire Oasis" in the Black Crystal World.
Almost every civilized gathering place has treasures that are powerful enough to fight against the Death Field.
Just live around similar treasures.
The heat from your body will not be absorbed by the dead silence.
Then you can survive like in the normal world.
Permanent residents here can bring fresh firewood to "borrow fire" every day.
The burning wood will become a "torch that warms the heart".
The properties and appearance of that thing are exactly the same as the torch that Roger got from the deep-sea python.
The two obviously come from the same source.
As for foreign travelers.
You can also get torches in Love Town that are strong enough to withstand the dead silence in the wild.
All you need to do is pay the "Labor Vouchers" issued by Love Town.
The latter can be obtained by completing tasks in the Ai Xin Town Public Office.
However, most of these tasks are labor-intensive and low-paying.
Most of the people doing these jobs used labor coupons to exchange for the necessary food.
Few people can afford the expensive torches.
…
second.
Different from the dead forest with a single rule.
There are character states in the Sombra world.
Although it is roughly divided into three categories: "hunger index", "thirst index" and "fatigue index".
But it also really affects the character's state.
Roger walked around for the day.
The three major indexes soared.
If he hadn't quickly found the Starlight Tavern to relieve the pressure by eating, drinking water and resting.
He might be on the verge of death by now!
This made him realize the reality of this world.
Different from the Dead Forest.
Roger needs to consider more than just the construction of the character cards.
Your own survival is also of paramount importance.
During the day.
He exchanged all the two-dimensional currency and metals he collected from the Shadow Clan people at a pawn shop.
I only got 300 labor vouchers.
This amount of money can only allow him to live normally in Love Town for 3 to 4 days at most.
Buying the supplies you need for your travel adventure is a luxury.
This was a new experience for Roger.
After all, he hadn't been so poor in a long time.
There are a lot of things in the tinder bag.
But not many of them conform to the laws of the two-dimensional world.
He can't sell the corpse of the ancient evil god, right?
It can be sold for a lot of money.
But the troubles it would cause would probably be endless.
“We still have to make some money.”
"Otherwise, let alone killing monsters, I can't even maintain my character status."
In the booth.
As Roger ate, he was thankful that the elves didn't need to eat.
They only need to rest for 4 hours a day to brush for 20 hours.
He can be said to be the most perfect employee!
As for Roger himself.
Every 24 hours he must take one long rest and one short rest.
Otherwise, the three major indexes will explode on the spot.
Roger didn't know what the consequences would be.
…
In the Starlight Tavern.
Roger finished replenishing his status silently.
Waiter X is always busy.
He didn't notice Roger's gaze at all.
The latter waited patiently in the tavern until midnight.
But there are always so many guests here.
Waiter X seemed to have endless energy.
Always busy serving.
Late night.
The pub is closed.
Roger booked a room to rest.
He still couldn't find any opportunity to take action.
So we can only continue to observe.
The next two days were spent in a similar rhythm.
Roger was surprised to find out.
Waiter X barely has a life of his own.
Except for necessary rest time.
He was always busy at the bar.
Regular customers who come and go seem to be accustomed to his iron-man work style.
Because of the nature of the work.
There are always a lot of people around X.
Roger wasn't even sure he could kill him.
What's more, it happened silently.
Day 4.
Roger had run out of labor coupons.
After today.
He didn't even have the money to pay for his room.
You can't really go to work and earn money, right?
Roger rejected this possibility without a second thought.
He decided to take a risk!
It was noon that day.
Roger reached the back street of the Starlight Tavern with ease.
On this narrow and dark street.
There were some homeless people lying around.
There are both men and women among them.
But they are all unkempt and look haggard.
There were some cheap wine bottles scattered around them.
Although there is no olfactory mechanism.
But when Roger walked by.
It was as if I could smell a hangover.
He walked quickly past some homeless people.
Finally arrived in a shadow.
Here.
There lay a homeless man who looked a bit different.
He looked to be in his forties.
All dirty.
He seemed to be as hungover as everyone else.
But Roger saw through his disguise at a glance!
on the data bar.
…
"Hint: You found the 'killer disguised as a drunk'"
…
"Should we negotiate?"
…
"Negotiation in progress..."
…
"Killer (drunk): Wine! Give me wine!"
…
"Roger (cold): I'll give you some wine, and you'll help me kill someone."
…
"Killer (shocked): What are you talking about?! I won't kill anyone! Are you crazy?!"
…
"Roger (calm): I know who you are. Tell me what you want and I will give you a satisfactory price."
…
"Killer (silence): ..."
…
"Killer (pain): I don't want to kill anymore, please go away"
…
"Roger (temptation): One ancient silver coin, help me kill the bartender X, I believe you can do it."
…
"Killer (shocked): Ancient silver coin?"
…
"Killer (ecstatic): Are you serious?"
…
"Killer (confident): Deal!"
…
4 hours later.
At dusk.
The western exit of Aixin Town.
Roger glanced at the data column as he was about to leave.
…
"Record: Your murder request has been completed."
…
"The killer killed Waiter X and brought back the eye of the damsel in distress!"
…
"You have completed the first stage of the special mission!"
…
"You have received the girl's gratitude: Squire Recruitment Ticket"
…
"Squire Recruitment Ticket: You can use it in taverns in neutral territory.
During the period when the recruitment voucher is valid.
You will have a certain chance to recruit a number of followers with random strengths.
…
