The Amber Sword: Act 26 The Mystery of Gold
The Mystery of Gold in Act 26
When everyone saw the solitary tree, they were all stunned. Brando was talking about Golden Apple Tree. They naturally thought of that aspect? And mercenaries immediately associated with Brando said that the legendary Fairy queen lived under Golden Apple Tree, and seeing her mortal is doomed to go out of this valley in her life, could not help but fight a chill.
These people couldn't help but immediately looked around subconsciously, fearing that they would be trapped here forever if they were not careful. They managed to escape from Madara's Undead Army, but they didn't want to live here forever.
But what they didn't expect was that Brando didn't worry about Golden Apple Tree at all. In previous life, players like him have already turned this valley over. The valley of Mysterious in his eyes has no secrets in his eyes. From here, he goes north to the other side of the valley, except for being bare. There is no hair on the ground and fog.
There are no monsters, no treasures, no living things, and no trace of anger. As for the legendary Golden Apple Tree and Fairy queen are even more nothingness, only spread in the myth of NPC verbal, players have never seen it.
But what surprised him was the solitary tree. He repeatedly confirmed that he should remember that there is no such tree existence in game.
He has traveled back and forth many times in this valley, which should not be mistaken, because the scenery and objects in the valley are idealized manifestations of the king. Even if the day changes, the night will regain its original state. -- Brando Remember It is clear that the scenery will change unless the plot or time flow in the valley itself changes.
But there should be nothing in this valley quest / mission That's it. could it be that Mean this moment existence In your eyes Fairy Hometown is not game Which one? Brando A guess came into my mind, unless someone concealed his experience, or before the player entered Fairy Hometown already That changed.
But which one should it be?
The former seems possible, but when you think about it, you find suspicious points. For players, it is often difficult for one person to discover all the secrets of a place, so even if the first person conceals it, the chance of everyone thinking of going together is small. However, Brando immediately thought and did not rule out that it was a person who came repeatedly many times. Although this seemed to have some idealization, it was not impossible.
He recalled that the first person to discover this valley should be the **** Scholar member of the Star guild, a player named ‘Kranwo’. The second one is a Knight, the third is a female player of kok, but the time interval between the three is only a few days apart. existence is unlikely to conceal.
Brando shook his head, not for this reason. Then it is the second one. In this valley, already changed before the player entered. This is not possible in game, but -- is two factors.
One is the plot change, and the other is NPC exploration. He could not help frowning. Without the player's participation, he would not know much about this quest / mission. Unknown -- This is a big trouble for him.
But Brando was staring at that tree, and was still involuntarily interested. Just like each players, the interest in the pursuit of secret quest / mission was born, just like an unknown treasure involuntarily attracting people to chase.
It ’s like quest / mission that involves Taikoo knowledge.
He immediately gestured for the others to ask them to stop the refugees. Anyway, the night in the valley is stopped relative to the time outside. This night will last three days and three nights, as long as he has time to explore the valley before their food is eaten.
In fact, the valley is so big to go back and forth. It only takes a few hours to run a horse back and forth, and it doesn't take three days.
He saw Leto looking at him doubtfully, so he pointed at the tree and replied, "It seems that there are some problems. I'm going to check it in front."
"Do you need manpower?" Although the bar owner Leto is a veteran of November War, he is helpless in the face of mysterious things. He can only ask with one's own experience.
Brando does require manpower.
But he took a look at these Mercenary and wasn't convinced of them. After all, this may involve some legendary treasures and the same danger. He does not want to share secrets with these people. He has to find a trustworthy talent. He looked at Ciel first. Originally, this young Wizard Squire was his best choice -- as summoned creature. He and this youngster could almost share the secret --. Unfortunately, Ciel consumed mana in already in this night's battle, and now he only compares An ordinary person is better.
He looked at Romaine again. This miss merchant was not very qualified. Although she has a keen Perception power, she is too weak to go with him.
Romaine looked at him and blinked.
Brando knows that this miss merchant is pretending to be such a good-looking one, so that he can take her to take a risk, but Brando will not be fooled. He finally turned his head back and focused on the absent-minded Freya.
"Freya?"
“Ah? Ah––! "Freya raises head came to look at him, and for a moment, his face turned red.
"What's the matter with you?" Brando saw her like this for a moment. In his original impression, Freya should be an autonomous girl with one's own insight, but how she has been feeling since Xavier Mountain Somewhat weird.
If it wasn't for Elven Sword's response to her, Brando would have to wonder if she was replaced by Madara's undead.
"No, nothing, Brando, is there anything wrong?" Freya was just thinking about the weird request of Brando before, and was panicking. This would be afraid of being seen through by the other party.
"I'm going to take a look ahead, you're with me."
Freya froze for a moment, then nodded immediately: "OK, OK."
"I want to go too." miss merchant twisted around on the horse.
"You stay here for me obediently. If you want to learn horse riding so much, I will let Ciel teach you, but if I come back and see you tie yourself to the horse, I will drag you over and tie me horizontally. Behind the horse. "Brando glanced at her and replied fiercely.
"But I can't learn it," Romaine replied simply.
Can't you be humble? Brando could not help but shook his head: "it doesn't matter, there is more time, riding is a very simple thing. You always have to venture with me, not riding is not possible."
"it doesn't matter, Brando, I can tie myself to the horseback. I don't feel any discomfort." miss merchant thought for a moment, and answered honestly.
"The relationship is very strong, and this is not necessarily related to whether you feel comfortable." Brando glanced at her angrily, too lazy to ignore the complaint of this future miss merchant, and went to Leto alone to explain Take a look at what you may need to pay attention to, take another spare crossbow, then call Freya and leave.
In the memory of Brando's, the most likely existence plot in this valley is the branch road to the west. However, the more the secret place, the more times the players searched. In fact, Brando also visited once or twice, but in the end, they found nothing.
He still remembers the grass, trees, mountains and stones in that area.
The two left the team. Brando kept an eye on the surrounding scenes. After about ten minutes of running, he finally confirmed that the hometown of Fairy and game at one's own guess -- at this moment is absolutely different. It must be within the next few months. What happened in the unknown.
But when he saw that he was spinning around a rock, the Freya at the back was puzzled, could not help but catch up and asked, "Brando, what are you looking at?"
"I'm looking for the entrance." Brando was constantly turning the horse's head to look out of a messy white giant rock. At this time he seemed to find something, suddenly turned over and dismounted, and walked towards the rocky ground.
"Entrance?" Freya followed the dismount and asked after it.
"Well. That's it, come with me --" Brando replies while pulling out Elven Sword, step by step walks towards a narrow gap in the center of two sharp rocks.
He remembered that it was called ‘Fork in Destiny’. There was a hint in the system log when he came here in game, but there was obviously no hint in this world. He could only rely on experience to do business.
He remembers that there should be an open iron box behind the rock, which contains a stone slab, which must be items to enter the fork of fate, but it cannot bring out of the valley. Someone tried to carry the thing in Dimensional Bag, but the final result disappeared inexplicably.
It can only be interpreted as that the slate was originally an idealized part of the world.
He thought about this circumventing the rock, but he did not expect a strong wind to come. Brando felt at this moment that already was quite keen. His own brain hadn't responded yet. The body responded to already subconsciously. -- stepped back and collided with Freya. A golden arrow of the next moment almost wiped the tip of his nose. Flew over.
The two fell backwards, but Brando at the last moment raises head, only saw a golden figure disappearing behind the rock instantly, this is still his quick response, otherwise he could not even see where the attack came from.
"Who's --!" Brando subconsciously wanted to get up from the ground and catch up, but he pressed his hand down and suddenly felt that the place was soft. After a moment's stun, he finally couldn't help it My mind was blank.
No, right.
He looked back, and he saw that the one's own's unbiased hand was right in a position that shouldn't be placed on the girl's chest. Freya already froze completely, staring at him with bright light brown eyes, but he didn't know how to speak for a moment That's good.
But the future Valkyrie finally responded. She pushed Brando to one side suddenly, then quickly got up and lowered her head did not say a word.
Brando also reacted, he couldn't help awkwardly climbing up and pretending to look at the direction in which the golden figure had receded. -- Of course, there were no ghosts there.
"I'm sorry, that ..." He thought for a long time, and only squeezed out such a dry sentence.
"Well, who was it just now?" Freya bowed her head, her face flushed like blood was dripping.
"I don't know, I saw a golden figure, Fairy is not like that. It's more like summoned creature." When asked about the professional field, Brando's has a much clearer idea.
"You, are you not injured?" The girl's voice was as thin as a mosquito.
Brando glanced at her and shook her head. He paid particular attention to the previous golden arrow, but found only a deep hole in the side wall of the rock.
Mitsuya?
Brando frowned at the small hole, but that's the effect of advanced weapons. But at least confirm that what I just saw is not an illusion, and it seems that the strength is not as good as Abaddon from the opponent's speed. Thinking of this, he relaxes a bit, as long as he is vigilant, there should not be too much trouble.
His already confirmed the strength of one's own in the battle with Abaddon. If he goes all out, he can barely reach Silver rank, and enemies below silver will not be too scared now.
After checking the battlefield, Brando made a vigilant gesture to Freya, and then grasped Elven Sword and touched it inside.
He remembered that the golden figure escaped from the gap in the north, and the back was the entrance to the fork of fate. Could it be that they came from that back? But in game, I have never heard of anyone being attacked.
He immediately saw the iron box -- behind the rock. It was born on a white stone platform, as if who had placed it. If you have more power than gold level, you can destroy this box, but it doesn't make much sense, because it will automatically return to its original appearance the next night.
Brando took a look around, and now he is not so convinced of his previous already. At least that golden figure changed some discretionary things in his memory with already. Not only is there creature, it also looks hostile.
After confirming that there are no enemies around, he opens the box. But as soon as he opened the box, he couldn't help but hold him.
In addition to a slate in the box, there are a pair of earrings.
What is this?
Brando hesitated for a moment, he was afraid that there might be Magic trap on the box, although there is no game, but who can tell it now. However, he has a simple test method. He leans on Elven Sword, and there are often some simple Defense measures between heuristic magical item. He just needs to see if there is any response.
Although this method is not always effective, it is better than nothing.
Brando quickly concluded that -- did not respond.
He picked up the pair of earrings, glanced at it, and immediately lost it as if it was hot, "Endless ice earrings, Intelligence + 2, Will + 1." Brando could not help but snorted, subconsciously covered one's own's head. At this moment, he was almost a headache, as if a thousand needles were stabbing his meninges.
"Brando?" Freya was startled, and hurried up to support him.
"I'm okay, be careful around you." Brando held the iron box with one hand, panting loudly, while cursing loudly in the heart of the person who placed the earrings here. Of course, he knows what went wrong, and this is not a trap. But the biggest problem of -- is that the Mana kickback is too intense. Of course, the biggest problem is that the -- ring is at least 95oz. Kind of place!
His first reaction was that he had hallucinations. The second reaction was still impossible. Bucce is still a novice zone in this season. Most of the encounters will not exceed Level 50, and this ring already far exceeds the level that the encounter can bear, at least already has reached the Level 70 level.
Therefore, when Brando will use willpower to retrieve this ring, a strong Mana recoil will appear, leaving his thoughts blank for a moment.
And such a powerful magical item appears in an low grade area.
Theoretically, this omission will not occur in game.
There may be some changes in this world, but Brando does not believe it will run counter to the setting of game. He finally waited until the headache was relieved, calmed down and realized another problem:
What if this Grave of the Holy Saint was originally set to NPC?
The more he thought about it, the more he thought it was possible. After all, the first discovery of this valley in game was not long after the start of game, and about two months after the end of the first War of Black Rose. If there was nothing at that time, it means that the designer had no intention of letting the player participate in the plot.
Brando can't help but wait for the pair of earrings, my heart pounding, a Hidden Quest that exceeds Level 60? Is he trying to get a fish in the water? Or quit quickly?
The risks are of course unimaginable, but the gains can be unimaginable. Brando has only completed Hidden Quest above Level 60 of the previous generation. He has only completed Phantasmal rank armament, one intermediate Skill, and one Wealth close to 100 million Tor.
Only with these three quest / mission experiences, he was among the players in the upper and middle reaches.
But how big is the risk? Level 60 level is like one by one puts the trowel in front of Brando. Level 60 not to mention gold power, even element has unsealed more than ten levels. If you want him to take a picture with a general monster of Level 60 Face, it is estimated that the other person would give him a second with one look.
Brando's pressed his hands on the iron box. for a moment couldn't help but be hesitated, hesitated and couldn't decide again.
Because there is another key issue, in the next three months, there may be a time when everything in this valley will be gone. existence may be abandoned today. It is possible that he will give up this adventure today and he will not have the opportunity to choose again tomorrow. once. For a moment this distressed head was wandering in his head like a cold Spectre, time after time encouraged him to take risks.
What will he do?
youngster couldn't help breathed in and looked back at Freya.
"Brando?" Freya saw a strange look at Brando, and couldn't help asking a word carefully.
"If I choose to take a risk, would you like to go with me?" Brando asked in a husky voice.
"I may, but I don't want you to take risks, Brando." Freya thought for a moment, and replied so.
Brando hesitated for a moment, nodded, and vomited one breath.
