Volume 9: Disaster Chapter 521: The Call of the Origin Plot Mission
Origin story mission?
Hearing those familiar words, Murphy immediately pricked up his ears.
He looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw that the people speaking were a few mage players from Dalaran, who were having a heated discussion.
"Forget it. This mission is too difficult. It feels very dangerous to do. There is no hope at all."
"I would like to give it a try. What if it works? That's the power of a guardian. With such power, I can walk around the game with ease."
"I'm also going to take it. This is the first time I've encountered this origin story mission. It would be a shame if I don't take it."
"Did you notice the hint of unknown risk behind that mission? It feels particularly weird."
"What are you afraid of? The worst that can happen is that you will die and your account will be deleted. Compared to the power of the guardian, it is nothing."
Um?
Murphy was inexplicably surprised when listening to the conversation between several people. From what they said, it seemed that anyone could take on this task?
And it was actually related to the Guardian. Wasn't the Guardian Medivh? Could this quest also involve Medivh?
Just at this moment, Murphy saw Morgan Lisa coming over with a wine glass, and hurriedly invited her to sit down together.
Morgan Lisa sat on the sofa carefree. In real life, she looked quite heroic, wearing long leather boots and a long trench coat, with short hair, and dressed in a quite neutral style.
She was not at all shy when facing a few rough men.
"Hey, you found a good place. Let me take a look. The chieftain of the tribe, the king of the alliance, the centaur emperor, and the storm dragon king are all big shots. What are they talking about?"
"Let's talk about the Guardians again. I heard that you have a new 'Origin Story Mission' in Dalaran?"
The three people nearby were all stunned, wondering when did they start talking about this.
Morgan Lisa didn't care, "There is indeed such a task, why do you care about it?
"Can anyone take this mission?"
"Of course not. You must have a certain level of strength and status to be able to do this. However, there are indeed quite a few people who are qualified to take on this mission. Including me, there must be seven or eight people who have received this mission."
Mo Fei thought, no way, the origin story mission is so worthless?
"Can you tell me more about this mission?"
Morgan Lisa nodded, "You know the Guardian Medivh, right? Since Medivh's disappearance, Dalaran's strategic deterrence capability has been greatly reduced, especially after the birth of the golden tree. The old men have a strong sense of crisis, so after repeated discussions, the Violet Council decided to create a second guardian.
However, it will be a test to decide who will be the new guardian.
The content of this origin story mission is to complete the trial. There are three tests in total. After completing all the tests, you can become the new guardian. However, there is only one guardian position. No matter how many people receive this mission, it can only be completed by one person in the end. This is too difficult, so I am also struggling with whether to do it or not. "
Morgan Lisa said helplessly, "The competition is too fierce."
So that's how it is. Murphy suddenly understood.
He said that the original plot missions couldn't be so rampant. It turned out that it was lenient to enter but difficult to exit. There were many people who accepted the missions, but only one person could complete them.
Guardian? If you complete this task, the original power you gain should be arcane magic.
He and Godwin looked at each other and exchanged glances quickly.
The two already knew what each other meant.
The power of the guardian is naturally a very strong force, especially when it comes to the origin story missions, which means that it will affect reality.
Morgan Lisa is the princess of Lordaeron, Godwin's adopted sister, and Murphy's friend. If there must be a guardian, it would be better to let Morgan Lisa be the guardian than some other unfamiliar player.
The secret alliance between Murphy and Godwin can gain new strength.
The Great Emperor of Gods and Martial Arts interrupted at this time and said, "I remember that the power of the Guardian is all in Medivh. The Guardian is created by all the mages of the Council of Tirisfallen who gathered their magic power and injected it into one person.
If we want to build a second guardian, wouldn't it mean that we have to sacrifice a large number of mages? Are there really so many people willing to make sacrifices?"
Morgan Lisa lowered her voice and said, "I'm telling you, don't tell anyone else. In fact, the Guardian is not created by a group of great wizards injecting magic power into a person as recorded in history.
If one can cultivate to the level of a great magician, who would be willing to give all his magical powers to others?
Besides, magic is not internal energy, so it cannot be passed on."
Godwin asked curiously, "How was the guardian created?"
Morgan Lisa explained: "According to the information I have learned, it should be the ancient Dalaran's great wizards who worked together to cut off a node of the magic network and implanted it into the human body, thereby enabling it to obtain almost endless magic power.
However, it is easier said than done. It is extremely difficult to do. It even requires the mobilization of the entire Dalaran's strength to do it, and it requires a large amount of materials. It seems that some special non-renewable resources are also needed. I don't know what they are, but it seems that it is very difficult for Dalaran to get this thing.
This thing should be used as the core of the magic network node.
Even so, it is very difficult to create a guardian, because the body of an ordinary mortal has to bear the power of the magic network. Even if it is just a node, it is very dangerous and it is easy to die suddenly. I have checked some secret information of Dalaran. In ancient times, Dalaran conducted many secret human experiments to create guardians. It is also a very dark history.
It was a bit of luck that I was able to successfully create a guardian in the end.
So this time the parliament directly opened up the task to the public. As long as one meets the standards of a great wizard, he or she can take it. However, because it is too dangerous, I estimate that if you fail, you will most likely have to give up.
But if it is done , it will be amazing. Endless magic power means that any ancient forbidden spell can be cast at will, and any magic can be used at will without restrictions. It can be said that it is almost invincible. "
Morgan Lisa said this with a look of longing on her face. Few people could resist being tempted by such power.
The Guardian is indeed almost invincible. When Sargeras entered Azeroth in the form of a clone, he was killed in a single fight by the previous Guardian Aegwynn.
Although the power of the Demon King's clone is relatively limited, no matter how limited it is, it is still Sargeras, the Demon King, the Dark Titan.
The Guardian is able to fight against Sargeras' clone alone. His power is probably even greater than that of the five dragon kings (each one individually).
Murphy estimated that the effect of this magic network node should be similar to his magic network guardian power, both of which can obtain endless magic power.
Moreover, because his main profession is warrior, he does not have any heroic expertise or equipment support, so the power of his magic is not that great and can only be considered a part-time job. Therefore, the magical power of this guardian should be far superior to his own in terms of power alone.
"I see. That sounds really impressive. If you need any help, just let me know. If you want to be a guardian, I will definitely support you."
Godwin also said, "Me too, sister, we are brother and sister, big brother, I will definitely support you to be the guardian."
"Ha, then I won't be polite." Morgan Lisa laughed immediately, "Then I will take this task later."
Emperor Shenwu and Badao Wuqing listened to the conversation between the few people, but each of them had his own thoughts.
Badao Wuqing was feeling very upset. He had just forged the artifact Ashbringer, which finally gave the tribe a certain high-end combat capability. He didn't expect that the Alliance would come up with Guardians. This was not good. If Guardians were created, the tribe would be even weaker than the Alliance in the future.
No, we have to quickly make some big plans to enhance the high-end combat power of the tribe. Although our tribe is a little lacking in magic, we also have our own special professions, such as warlocks, shamans, and so on.
How about calling together the warlocks and shamans of the tribe to have a good discussion and see if we can create a humanoid weapon similar to the Guardian?
The Emperor Shenwu focused on different points.
——Origin story mission? It seems that they attach great importance to this origin story mission. The name of this mission is also very special.
The Emperor Shenwu was somewhat suspicious. Did these two have done similar tasks before? Otherwise, how could they be so sure that this origin story mission was worth doing?
No, after I go back I have to immediately arrange for the intelligence department to collect all the information about the [Origin Story Mission]. I have a feeling these two guys are hiding something from me.
"Who has accepted the mission now?"
"I'm Gandalf the Furious, the great astromancer Floating Dream. Oh, and Kael'thas also wants to take on this mission, but the Dalaran Council doesn't seem to want the elves to get involved. You know, now the elves have all joined the Lordaeron Court. I don't mean to offend you, brother."
Godwin shrugged his shoulders to show that he didn't care.
"Oh, and there's also the One and Only Law, the one over there."
Murphy looked in the direction Morgan Lisa's finger pointed and saw the Black Gate Warrior who was with the Midnight God of Magic.
He estimated that if the God of Magic had not died twice in the middle of the night, he would have had a chance to take on this task. Unfortunately, his level dropped too much after dying twice, so it was obviously hopeless.
He was about to look away, but suddenly he glanced at a woman next to Weiwodufa. At first glance, the woman looked nothing special, but she seemed to be able to sense his gaze. The woman turned around abruptly, and their eyes met in an instant.
The woman had a pair of beast-like eyes, as particularly eye-catching as a cat, with a wildness and alertness, and extremely sharp.
Murphy's heart couldn't help but tremble.
He had a feeling that the other party must also have possessed some kind of power.
At the same time, the woman narrowed her eyes slightly. She felt a sense of pressure from Murphy's gaze, which was the terrifying pressure of a prehistoric beast.
Ordinary people might not notice anything at all, but she sensed the aura of a superior in that gaze.
"What's wrong, meow?"
"Nothing." The woman shook her head. "Where were we talking about?"
"This is the Guardian's first trial. I need your help."
"Don't worry, I'll help."
Murphy also withdrew his gaze, thinking in his heart that those extraordinary people hidden among the players were finally beginning to be exposed one by one.
Ding ding ding, the phone suddenly rang.
Murphy picked it up and saw that it was an old friend calling.
"Excuse me." He nodded to a few people, picked up the phone and walked aside.
"Hey, Lao Xiao, how come you have time to contact me?"
"I just attended a meeting and I have some information I want to exchange with you."
Meeting? Murphy's mind raced, and suddenly something came to his mind.
"Let me guess, a game boss conference?"
"Fuck, how did you know that?"
"Because I'm attending the Heroes' Conference here. The Age of Disaster has arrived. I think we need to be prepared for both heroes and bosses. Maybe there's an Adventurer's Conference or a Lord's Conference somewhere right now."
"Haha, you really think alike. You know that demon lord named Dia Pineapple? He called on us bosses to take advantage of the invasion of the Scourge to start a war together, expand our influence, and cause trouble for the three major camps."
Murphy was not surprised. At this delicate moment, it would be strange if the BOSS players did not take any action. "Why are you telling me this?"
"Of course it's because we are old friends. How about we work together? As long as you do me a favor, I will give you the activation date and the BOSS list."
"so good?"
"Of course there are conditions. I recently triggered a particularly difficult task and I'm struggling with whether to do it or not. I may need your help. Have you heard of the origin story task?"
Mo Fei wondered what was going on today, everyone was here to complete the original story mission.
"I've heard of it. Why, did you receive one?"
"That's not the case. I just had such an opportunity. Recently, a strange fire element appeared in the Fire Origin Land. It looks like a big eye. Approaching it will trigger an origin story mission. This is the first time I've seen this thing. I think you know a lot, so I want to ask you, what exactly is this origin story mission?"
"If you complete the origin story mission, you will receive a super reward. I can't tell you what it is, but I strongly recommend that you take this mission. No matter how difficult the mission is, you must do it. As long as you complete it, you will definitely benefit from it endlessly."
"Is it so amazing? Is it true?"
"Of course it's true, but be careful, this kind of mission is very risky. If you're not willing to invest a lot, don't do it to avoid any accidents."
"Well... now that you put it that way, the content of this mission is indeed a bit outrageous... but if there really is a super reward, it would make sense. Don't keep me in suspense and just tell me what the reward is."
"You wouldn't believe me even if I told you, but it's really, really amazing. It's something everyone dreams of."
"Old Mo, you are too mysterious - damn it, I will believe you this time. I will go back and take this mission. But you have to do me a favor and find a few elementalists to summon me to the main material plane. This mission can only be completed in the main material plane."
Murphy asked curiously, "Why didn't you ask him for help when Tyrant Blade Wuqing was summoned by the Sunwell?"
"That guy is very evil-hearted and asked for too high a price. Besides, I hadn't encountered this mission at that time. We are old friends, so let's help each other. This mission can only be completed in the Prime Material Plane."
Murphy pondered for a moment. It was not easy to summon a fire demon lord.
However, with his current strength, it is not that difficult, and he also knows a few of them through the great elements.
"Okay, I'll think of a solution later. But if I summon you here, just giving you some information is not enough. If I need your help later, you can't refuse."
"That's natural."
Hang up the phone.
Murphy was very satisfied with the results of this Heroes Conference. He not only successfully organized a coalition to fight against the Scourge.
I also took the opportunity to get a glimpse of the current players' bottom line.
He has always been curious about how many players have completed the Origin Power mission and gained super powers.
It seems that there are still very few people of this type, and the only ones confirmed so far are him, Godwin, and the mysterious woman.
It's not surprising. The original story mission is very difficult, and I was able to complete it by chance.
Godwin relied on his status and power as the King of Lordaeron.
Without these convenient conditions, it would be difficult for ordinary players to complete the task even if they received it.
For example, for the two newly discovered origin story missions, there are probably many people who will take them up, but only one person can complete each mission in the end.
Now that he had already seized the initiative, he naturally wanted to gather as much power as possible into the hands of his own people.
