After pushing open the cold coffin lid, what Ryan saw was a broken world, holding a strange ram's horn relic in his hand. From the mouth of his witch, he learned his destiny and what he must do. However, although it is unknown whether other salary collectors are the same as him, Ryan's awakening place is wider, and there is an ancient passage that leads to an unknown place. The witch said that it was an important area that was entangled with his fate, and perhaps it was related to what happened during his lifetime and the ram's horn relic in his hand. But the powerful giant monster at the end of the passage always refused his entry. Helpless, Ryan can only leave the ancient passage and continue exploring in order to become stronger and gain the power to defeat the giant monster... "Can you show me?" Hearing this, the storyteller was a little curious. After hearing this, Ryan hesitated for a moment, then took the ram's horn relic from his arms and handed it to the storyteller. After taking the ram's horn relic and looking at it for a moment, the storyteller touched his chin. "Brother Ryan, I might be able to ask the Candlekeeper to help you explore the mystery of the ram's horn relic... But the premise is that you have to trust me."
The storyteller first handed the ram's horn relic back and said with a smile. "If you agree, just wait here for me for a while, and I can give you some things as collateral. If that doesn't work, you can go to Loti's shop and buy a contract." he suggested. Of course, he had no intention of keeping Ryan's ram's horn relics for himself, he was just curious about the secrets inside. But Ryan probably wouldn't think so. As a native of this world, everyone is mostly cautious and vigilant. Although this Ryan obviously looks friendly, he is obviously not as defenseless as the Claymore revealed by the Candlekeeper. The reason why I was able to talk freely with him was probably because of Li Miao and Shangshang's sake. As expected, after hearing the storyteller's words, Ryan frowned subconsciously. This ram's horn relic revived with him, its importance is self-evident. If it were handed over to the storyteller... Ryan thought and was silent for a while. Seeing this, the storyteller thought it was hard for him to refuse directly, so he wanted to change the subject, but before he could speak, Ryan took out two ancient papers from his arms again. "...In that case, you should be able to find those two brave men." "Please bring my thanks to them when you go back." Ryan said seriously, handing the ram's horn relic and two pieces of paper to the storyteller. Those two pieces of paper looked like they were about combat skills or prayers. The storyteller was stunned for a moment and glanced at Ryan, his eyes were serious and firm. It seemed that he was already prepared to be tricked by the storyteller. "...Okay, thank you for your trust, I will give the things to them." The storyteller also nodded seriously and smiled kindly.
It seems that the NPCs in the Lingzhu World are not all cold and heartless. "Hold on." After saying goodbye, the storyteller left the Shadow Cave. Seeing him leave, Ryan also stood up and started wandering around the shadow cave. Most of the stall owners sitting in the shadows were silent and indifferent. … [The salary-gatherer’s ram’s horn relic (unknown)] [Type: special items/tokens] [Effect: ① Not activated, requires specific energy/② Holding items can achieve certain specific needs. 】 [Explanation: The relics buried in the coffin with the salary collectors, although not contaminated with the breath of death, have faded with time, and their intended mission has not been known yet. 】 "alright." After carefully exploring the thing, Rogge handed it back to the storyteller. I have to say that sending this boy to the Shadow Cave was a correct decision. The ram's horn relic he brought back this time allowed him to get some useful information about the salary collectors. The storyteller thanked him and took the ram's horn relic, while Rogge nodded slightly and disappeared. "Hmm...the quality is unknown and requires specific conditions to activate...it doesn't look simple." The Storyteller thought for a moment and put it back in his inventory. This trip is still somewhat useful, at least I know that Ryan's thing needs to be activated before it can be used. Of course, in addition to the ram's horn relics, there are two "brave men". "What the hell? What kind of salary collector?" Li Miao, who was called, scratched the back of his head and didn't think about Ryan for a moment. After all, it had been a long time since this happened. It’s not like Storyteller pays attention to the background of the game all day long, so he may not be able to remember it right away. Seeing this, the storyteller gave a few silent reminders. After the other party suddenly understood, he took out two pieces of paper from his pocket and handed them to Li Miao. "To be honest, I thought this side mission was over. I didn't expect that your boy would meet the follow-up, and I would even give you a reward." The storyteller was amazed and felt like he could enjoy another video. "Hahaha, this is called good things for good people." Li Miao grinned and handed over the two pieces of paper. The one who came ashore, Diaomao, had something to do and was offline. Naturally, he was the natural replacement. [Acquired: Combat Skill·Elbow Claw Combo] [Acquired: Combat Skill·Hardened Skin]
Although they are only two Ember-quality combat skills, they are quite practical. Dispensable. Li Miao glanced at it, shrugged, and put it into the inventory. Seeing his appearance, the storyteller couldn't help rolling his eyes: "Don't you realize how precious this thing is?" "What?" Li Miao was a little surprised. Aren't they just two ember-quality combat skills? He is already charcoaled now. What's so precious about them? Seeing this, the storyteller thought that it was indeed the case, and said unhappily: "Brother, this thing is obviously given by the task chain of the dynamic plot. How many people do you think can receive this kind of dynamic plot task chain?" When he said this, Li Miao reacted instantly. Yes! This thing is a reward given by the dynamic plot, just like the previous [Gift of the Spirit Candle], it can't be brushed. Just like the Gift of the Spirit Candle, of course others want it, but they can't get it. This game doesn't even have a recharge channel. If holders like Li Miao don't plan to sell it, even krypton gold bigwigs like Black Mountain Little Demon can only stare blankly. Therefore, the preciousness of these two combat skills does not lie in strength and practicality, but in collection value. Thinking of this, Li Miao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly took out the two combat skills written on paper and looked at them carefully. The more he looked at them, the more he liked them. "..." Seeing him like this, the storyteller shook his head speechlessly. After talking to Li Miao for a few more words, he turned around and prepared to go to the Shadow Cave again. If the candidate had not been fixed, maybe Li Miao and Ryan could meet. "Hey, wait a minute." Li Miao suddenly called him, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry, wait for me to buy a suitable spell and some equipment." The storyteller was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted, squinting and smiling and pointing at him: "Oh... you kid~" "Okay, go quickly." Li Miao bought the suitable spell of course to ask the storyteller to send the things to Ryan. The reason for doing this is naturally very simple, to brush the NPC's favorability. Maybe Ryan can bring other unique combat skills and weapons to Li Miao in the future! ... "You're back." Seeing the storyteller reappear, Ryan, who was helping to watch the stall, breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, he was still a little nervous, after all, the sheep horn relic was very important to him. "Sorry for the long wait." The storyteller smiled and nodded, and then immediately returned the sheep horn relic: "I haven't found out its origin, but there is a piece of information that may be helpful to you." "Your thing has two functions. One is to serve as a token to meet certain needs. As for the second function, I don't know yet... It needs some special energy to activate it."
Hearing this, Ryan also thought about it, and then thanked the storyteller. "Oh, by the way, the two heroes also received your gratitude, and he was very happy." "This is his return gift to you." As he said, Ryan looked at the wax in the storyteller's hand in surprise, slowly condensing into a black cube. "This thing is called the Applicant's Curse." Then, the storyteller explained to Ryan the function of the Applicant's Curse. The more he talked, the more shocked Ryan's eyes became. This... these "candle spirits"... are all so generous? Even if the storyteller didn't mention the quality of the weapon, Ryan didn't even need this information to see that this weapon was obviously much better than his current weapon. Such a treasure of quality was actually given to him? Then what was his thank-you gift? Thinking of this, Ryan couldn't help but smile bitterly. "No... Please forgive me for not accepting this gift, my friend, it's too precious, and my things are nothing compared to it." Although he wanted it very much, Ryan decided to decline. If it were a straightforward player, he would probably take it back, but the storyteller was obviously not. He still wanted to continue to dig out some background stories along the line between Li Miao and Ryan, so it would be better for the other party to accept this gift. So, after considering for a moment, the storyteller began to persuade. "It's not as precious as you think, at least for your friend. He is the best among us..." "He gave you this gift in return, which is not only a recognition of your friendship, but also a wish for you to become stronger..." "So I suggest you accept it..." The storyteller spoke eloquently and persuaded very seriously. If you switch to some games, there should be a prompt popping up... [You activated the skill "ELOCAUSE MAX" on the firewood collector Ryan] Listening to the storyteller's reasons and reasons one after another, Ryan was stunned, then hesitated, and finally nodded with emotion, and then accepted the gift solemnly. "This is very helpful to me, I will remember it in my heart." "Thank you, my friends." Seeing that he finally accepted it, the storyteller breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, why do people say that he is a grandma pig? Some people are born to eat this bowl of rice.
"It's okay. If you have any needs and questions, you can come to the Shadow Cave stall. " "Okay..." Now they, the players, have finally established a relatively stable communication channel with the firewood gatherers. ... The storyteller has recently brought out a lot of useful items and information from the shadow cave, and the weapons to fill the mall and the construction of the spirit candle buildings in various places also need to be advanced slowly. After dealing with these things, Rogge naturally turned his attention to the new dungeon. Of course he has the wax oil to attract the new area, but Rogge wants to find something more now. [Broken Core] As it is related to the improvement of the spirit candle grade, Rogge naturally attaches great importance to it and informs the player group through issuing tasks and dialogues. However, even though the players who played the game had gone to dungeons a lot, they had not heard any news about this item. This made Rogge sigh slightly. In the countless dark borders, looking for something is like looking for a needle in a haystack. If the Fire Temple is found... maybe there will be news about the Broken Core, but the problem is that the Fire Temple is also difficult to find. Therefore, Rogge can only be sure that there is only one way to be effective. However... "Pop pop pop~" Next to the pink little snail shell, the little snail is happily circling around it. Last time the snail shell was broken, Rogge gave her a new one, but it was obviously not hers. Fortunately, the little snail's shell can reshape and repair itself, and it has re-condensed into one, but it is still very small now, and even the little snail's tail can't be stuffed in. Seeing her happy look, Rogge naturally didn't have the heart to ask her to help again. Besides, this new snail shell is still so small that it may not be useful. ‘Let the storyteller ask around in the Shadow Cave.’ ‘Let’s anchor the island first, maybe there will be something useful…’ Thinking of this, Rogge stood up and disappeared into the Spirit Candle space. … Time flies, and a week has passed. Following the last large-scale regional war, the Dark Journey of the Spirit Candle has added several new dungeons twice in a row. This naturally expands the players’ choices of skills and fire equipment. The young players are having a lot of fun, and the main focus is on fighting.
However, there is nothing worth paying attention to for Rogge, neither the whereabouts of the Broken Core nor any particularly valuable text information. The only thing worth mentioning is perhaps those mummies with the characteristics of the Burning Earth race. [Anchoring the island…] [Anchoring successfully! 】 [Anchoring reward obtained: Abyssal Coral Staff (collection)] [Anchoring a small land island for the first time, anchoring reward obtained: Apprentice Prayer Book × 1] Amid the exclamations of a group of new players, Rogge's figure slowly disappeared and went to the Spirit Fire Port. This time, all the islands and areas that can be anchored were anchored together, but unfortunately, he still did not get the special reward of finding the Broken Core that he expected. There are only some weapons or equipment that he can't use, but the players are very jealous of, such as the special staff of collection quality. Although it is a staff, he is too lazy to hang it out before it can be mass-produced, otherwise the players will have to nag again, so he can only keep it as a reward. It seems that he has lost the luck of getting whatever he wants. However, this situation is also expected, and Rogge is not too disappointed. [Apprentice Prayer Book] is still quite useful. I will go to Nonia after finishing the things at hand. The little snail's shell still hasn't fully recovered, and Rogge can only pin his hopes on the "blind box" at the Spirit Fire Port. Swish! The traction fire suddenly bloomed. [Searching the area...]
