Chapter 49 Storm
"Is it over?" The adventurer didn't know when he would come to Xu Dong's side.
The clockwork was very close to this mysterious woman. He looked at the other party and ran to rub her boots. The mysterious woman bent down and picked up the clockwork and gently teased its chin. The clockwork narrowed her eyes comfortably, showing a very enjoyable look.
Xu Dong sighed, and the separation mood in his heart dispelled a lot. He planned to leave here and go to the Blood Helmet City.
It will take almost two days from Nanjiao Village to Blood Helmet City. Fortunately, there is still a relatively generous amount of time before the end of the main mission. Of course, Xu Dong didn't figure out some problems before departure.
He glanced at the female adventurer: "Who are you and what are you thinking?"
In fact, the appearance of adventurers is absolutely a little strange when you think about it. She first appeared in the North Point Village and then left.
Not long after, when Xu Dong contacted Yang Shaoting and didn't know what to do for a moment, he suddenly appeared again, contributing to a crucial gambling battle.
In the end, she showed her strong strength and defeated Yang Sanshao's final defense in one fell swoop, so that the two sides could sit down and make an equal deal...
What the adventurer did, if it was only impulsive, it didn't make sense at all.
But she planned what wealth Xu Dong had, and she turned a blind eye to the most expensive magic fruit, which naturally aroused Xu Dong's curiosity. That's why I asked this question.
The adventurer teased the clockwork. Because the wide head cover covers most of his face, Xu Dong can only see a piece of skin under his lips, but it is not rough by the wind and sun. Instead, it is a kind of delicate and snow-white nourished in a boudoir and exquisitely care.
Xu Dong could see the corners of her lips pulling down slightly, and then there was a cold and decent voice: "You don't need to know who I am. The key is that you have to understand who you are and what you want."
Plain words, but like a sharp sword, directly pierced Xu Dong's heart, stirring the water of the lake rolling and ripples. He was stunned and couldn't help recalling the things that first entered the world.
Why did he travel through, why did he get such a magical ability as the talent system of the mission system, and why did he have to complete five main tasks in a row to survive safely--
All these things can only point to two questions: first, who summoned him; second, what does the "it" that summoned him to come want him to do?!
Xu Dong has been struggling with the task to be completed.
From his weakness at the beginning to his awakening today, every step has been extremely difficult. Without courage and wisdom, without luck and opportunity, he can never do such things.
Therefore, he also thought about these two issues at the beginning, but gradually ignored them inadvertently. Now that he is seduced again, how can he not feel a sense of uncontrollable astonishment?
Think deeply about who this adventurer is and why he seems to know everything about himself. There is always a feeling of relentlessness between his language, as if he is constantly guiding himself in a certain direction.
And what is the reason for Xu Dong's inexplicable trust in her?
Xu Dong couldn't figure it out. The only thing he knew was that the adventurer was not malicious to him, so he was trustworthy.
The adventurer saw that Xu Dong was silent and did not continue on this mysterious topic. He turned around and whispered, "I think the adventurer's profession or identity is very convenient for you to find yourself. First of all, adventurers can enter countries without hindrance.
In other words, obtaining the status of an adventurer is equivalent to applying for a * that can enter and leave major human countries at will, or without a visa.
"Second, after becoming an adventurer, you can receive tasks through the Adventurers Alliance. After completing the task, you can get all kinds of equipment, various cultivation methods, various props, and a lot of wealth."
Xu Dong believes that the meaning of this sentence means that after becoming an adventurer, he not only has great room for improvement, but also has enough funds to live a good life.
He doesn't know what the life of the soldiers is like. But things are always related. For example, the goal of athletes is always to win the Olympic gold medal. The goal of entrepreneurs must be the world's top 500. The loser's goal must be to become rich and handsome and catch up with the rich and beautiful - the goal of the top players must also become the strongest in the world!
"Third and most importantly, the adventurer's mission is to find the undiscovered secrets of the world, including the secret places; or they are also looking for their own contacts, a macro-level meaning and value of life. Don't you want to know the secrets hidden behind the extreme of flesh and blood armor?"
Through these words, Xu Dong also obtained very key information. The area of this world is surprisingly large, and there are still a large number of unknown places waiting to be discovered, and the most valuable of these places is a space called a secret place.
The adventurer specially emphasized the term secret land, which reminded Xu Dong of the world in his previous life, the major land found in the era of great navigation.
And the benefits brought by these new worlds can be inferred from the clues and traces of history that what a huge wealth it is!
As for looking for your own dealings, it is not difficult to understand. There is always a group of people in the world who don't know where they come from, what they are, and where they are going.
Because of this unknown, we are afraid, so we start to explore. Then there are social roles such as anthropologists and biologists.
Although Xu Dong was not interested in these social roles in his last life, one thing he can't deny in this life is that he really wants to know those three questions. Not because of curiosity, but because of fear!
I have to say that these three reasons for the adventurer moved Xu Dong, and a clear goal finally appeared in his mind: he also wanted to be an adventurer.
The adventurer saw the look on Xu Dong's face, knew his intention, and casually threw away the adventurer qualification certificate he had just obtained. This is an assessment qualification certificate worth 200 gold coins, which was thrown into Xu Dong by the adventurer like waste paper!
Then, the adventurer said, "You are lucky. The Adventurer League in the Blood Helmet City Branch will hold an adventurer assessment. However, you must obtain the certificate before the assessment. Unfortunately, the assessment of obtaining certificates has been completed. Fortunately, there was an unlucky man who just hid such a thing.
Xu Dong subconsciously held the qualification certificate in his hand and looked up at the adventurer from time to time. He felt more and more that this guy was really doing things without leakage. He often prepared everything silently, waiting for the prey to jump down. He swallowed his saliva and asked carefully, "What do you want from me?"
The adventurer did not answer, but just looked at him, and the meaning of his words was also about to come out: What can you give me? Don't be too affectionate.
For a long time, Xu Dong sighed and put away the things, "I owe you a great favor. I know you are a powerful armored man. Now I am still relatively too weak. If you need anything in the future, just open your mouth and it is natural to do it."
Since everything is well planned, Xu Dong is naturally in a hurry to go. Unexpectedly, the adventurer also had to go to Blood Helmet City, so the two of them went on the road together.
Along the way, Xu Dong was not idle, constantly practicing his talent skills and improving his skill proficiency.
After having combat experience, Xu Dong naturally has a deeper understanding of the understanding and application of skills. Along the way, I worked extremely hard again. Soon, the proficiency of powerful skills reached 100%, and the insight skills had long been completed. The devouring skill is slightly worse, but it is estimated that one day at most is enough to rise to the highest level.
At noon two days later, a small dot suddenly appeared in Xu Dong's sight. He was shocked and knew that the little dot was the Blood Helmet City. The footsteps have accelerated a lot.
For more than half a month, Xu Dong has been lingling around rural villages. The roads he can see are all compacted mud roads. The houses are basically covered with a roof, and they are simple houses built of yellow mud stones. Getting used to these, Xu Dong certainly longs for something different and novelty in his heart.
A closer, the blood helmet city in the distance finally revealed a rough outline.
The first thing you can see is a high wall built with stones up to ten meters high. The gray high wall has its own magnificent atmosphere under the bright sunshine. There is a sentry tower on the high wall. There are figures moving in the sentry tower, carrying bows and arrows, or holding swords, and are patrolling meticulously.
The eyes crossed the high wall, and a tower spire was highlighted. Through the introduction of the adventurer Lola, this spire is the Mondo Hall in the city.
Xu Dong later also understood that Mondo could be said to be the first king in human history. At that time, the Great Star and Moon Empire he founded was extremely powerful, and he himself was the strongest man. Even though he has passed away, there are still many of his temples and sculptures among human beings. Human people believe that they can be blessed by Mondo through worship and prayer.
As for why this pointed architectural style appears in the Mondo Hall, it is quite close to the church architectural style of the earth in principle.
Only this kind of pointed building that seems to pierce the sky can give people a feeling of being able to touch the sky.
Along the way, there are more pedestrians on the road. Among them, there are many farmers who send things to the city for sale in rural areas, and of course, there are also urban people who go out to play or work.
It is easy to distinguish between rural people and urban people. One is clothes and the other is look.
Like Xu Dong, a coat with holes all over his body doesn't look like a city man at first glance. When he was about to pay the door tax and enter the city, the guards' eyes were on his forehead. Without looking at him, he opened his mouth and said, "The cost of entering the city, a silver coin."
A silver coin? Xu Dong thought he was joking. People in the city don't need money to enter the city, and farmers who sell meat and vegetables only need to pay between 10 and 20 copper coins. Why do I have to pay a silver coin? Isn't it obvious bullying?
