I really can't control myself

On the surface, this exploration mission does not seem strange. The mission still advances the exploration progress, and the requirements are only 10%. But the problem is that Linton sees that the exploration progress of this world has reached 51%. Yes, when Linton refreshes tasks in the past few days, almost every day he comes across exploration tasks that take over other worlds. The worlds that appear are obviously different every time, but this kind of task that has directly explored 51% is really This is the first time I got it.

After seeing this mission, Linton was almost certain of his guess. It seemed that something happened about more than a year ago, which caused many investigators to suddenly disappear. Otherwise, it would be impossible for takeovers from various worlds to appear in piles now. Tasks, especially this kind of world that has been explored 51% of the progress, generally require a lot of effort, and 51% of the progress has been made, which shows that the investigator is capable of exploring the world. Linton wants to For a long time, I couldn't think of a reason to give up suddenly. It seemed to be an irresistible factor.

Thinking of this, Linton suddenly remembered the information he had seen in his memory about the cessation of some project. He wondered if it had something to do with this. Could it be that the cessation of the "drift bottle project" was related to the current situation here? To be honest, Linton himself didn't know why he thought so. It felt like his sixth sense sensed the connection between the two.

Thinking of this, Linton wanted to know more about the situation. He really hoped to meet an investigator. Unfortunately, he couldn't. He had just visited the black market over there. As expected, there was no change. What he had hung No one cares at all.

"If it's 51%, it should have advanced a lot of the plot." Linton suddenly thought that the previous progress in the Elf World was only 4.5%, and he also asked a few people who knew the investigator named Wang Lanhua, but in this world there is actually 51% progress, so there may be more information left?

Thinking of this, Linton wanted to take a look at the situation. After all, the requirements for taking over the task were very simple and the rewards were quite high. Although the previous elf world looked a bit tricky, the rewards he got were quite a lot. In this world with a 51% exploration rate, there should be no loss at all.

After looking at the task time, it was 60 cycles, neither long nor short. Linton thought for a while and accepted the task. The main reason was that the construction tasks here had not been released for a few days. It seemed like he wanted to just rely on the construction tasks to gain points. It's quite troublesome. Does this task list have some mechanism? If too many construction tasks are completed, exploration tasks and the like will appear.

Of course, he accepted the task first, and Linton didn't set off directly. After all, the construction task had not been completed yet. This construction task was time-limited. If he went by himself, he didn't know how long it would take to come back. By the time he came back, it would be too late, so he had to finish it first. We can only start after the construction tasks here are completed.

Just when Linton was thinking this, Melissa sent good news and bad news. The good news is that the construction of the teleportation array has finally been completed, one day earlier than expected. It seems that the church has really tried its best. The bad news is that the work entrusted by the Holy See has also come.

As mentioned before, the most important thing in the selection of the supreme priest is to complete tasks. The church will assign tasks, and then the candidates will lead the team to complete them. At the end of the year, they will report to the church, and then the person who has made the greatest contribution will be selected to become the supreme priest. Of course, according to what Melissa said, you have the right to refuse the task, but it is not Linton who decides whether to refuse, but Melissa is the candidate. When she told Linton, she had already expressed her willingness to accept the task. .

Of course, Melissa apologized to Linton, saying that she had accepted the task when she heard about it and could not ignore it. But Linton estimated that it was the church's arrangement, and Yalan had made it very clear to him. After Linton's series of operations, the church's attention should now have turned to the potion he took out. This mission is likely to be planned in this regard.

Regarding the mission situation, Linton also listened to Melissa's brief explanation. This is no longer the nearby mission that Melissa mentioned before. I heard that the mission has been taken over by another candidate. Of course, it is probably also arranged by the Holy See. This mission is relatively far away from them, in the west of the continent.

The location is in a city called Ma Enfila, which is the closest city to the west within the coverage of the Church of Light. The incident happened about a month ago. The bishop of the church in Marenfera was assassinated by an unknown person and died on the street. If something happened to the bishop, the Vatican would naturally find someone to investigate, so they sent a Vatican team to the city of Marenfera to investigate the situation. Unexpectedly, something happened again, and the entire team lost contact with them. There was no news at all. .

The Holy See investigation team is not an ordinary team. When it is known that something is going on, the Holy See sends out an elite team. Several of them are formal members of the Holy See Knights and have extraordinary strength. However, even such a team is now If contact is lost, it is basically certain that something happened, so the situation there is definitely unusual.

According to the church's speculation, it is probably a conspiracy by people from other sects against their Holy See. After all, the situation in the west is not stable, especially sectarian issues. The Holy See did not continue to send a second team, so the task fell to several candidates, and then Melissa took over.

The main task is to investigate. It is best to find the lost Vatican team. Of course, if something really happened, we must also investigate what the situation is. Of course, if we can solve the whole thing, we will get a higher evaluation. Melissa said that the reason why she took the mission was that the bishop who was assassinated and died on the street was kind to her. She also just found out that something happened to the bishop and she couldn't ignore it. Of course, Linton didn't know if it was true. .

Linton can actually accept this mission, because now it seems that the church is still very helpful to him. At least it is really useful in terms of funds and building teleportation arrays. He doesn't mind exchanging some cheap potions to keep them entertained. . But the problem is, that place is really too far away.

Yes, the traffic situation in the west is very bad. It is a relatively underdeveloped place and there are not many cities with teleportation arrays. The city of Marenfera is a relatively large city there. When the church established a branch church there before, it also built a special teleportation array there. However, after the accident, the teleportation array cannot be used. I don’t know why. It was destroyed or something. If you want to go to the city of Marenfera now, the fastest way is to go to the nearest city of Terrazzo and then go there by land. Linton asked and it will probably take at least twenty days. to reach the destination.

Of course, Linton didn't want to waste twenty days. He was very busy now, so how could he have the time to spend twenty days on the road. I just took on a 60-cycle task that needs to be completed. It will take twenty days to complete it. I don’t know how many days it will take to solve the task. What about the exploration?

What's even more troublesome is that he has to stay with Melissa for the past twenty days. He doesn't know if this is her plan. Linton spends so much time on the road preparing to get close to him and trick him into something. Linton doesn't want to be with this woman. Intriguing.

It is obviously impossible for Princess Yalan to go with them. The destination is not within the empire at all. After all, she is a princess of a country. She can just run around in the country. It is impossible to go abroad. What if she is caught? It's an international issue. It was really chaotic in the west, and it was impossible to let her go anyway. Maybe this was done by Melissa. She probably felt that with Princess Yalan around these days, she really couldn't talk to Linton properly. , will there be such an arrangement.

While Linton was thinking about it, he also received the prepared teleportation array. The craftsmanship of the church is really good. The teleportation array produced is directly recognized by the system and can be used directly without modification. After the teleportation array was completed, Linton also completed the construction task of a medium-sized city.

"The mission is completed, and you have received 120 basic contribution points. The overall evaluation of the mission is B, and you have received an additional 80 contribution points as a reward."

It's similar to Linton's guess. Almost all the points he invested before have been returned, and a little has been added. Now he has more than 12 million points. As for the contribution points, it has reached 330, which is 170 points away from upgrade. The mission experience of this medium-sized city is indeed much higher than that of Novice Village, and it received a B-level evaluation this time. Linton probably also got some tips and followed similar rules in online games. For example, Linton built a store this time Concentrate them in one area as much as possible. You see it is almost like this in online games. It is impossible to say that the weapons store is at this end of the city and the armor store is at that end. They are basically all next door. Isn't this convenient for players to find.

Linton also followed the same principle this time. Anyway, he tried to be as suitable as possible. The settings and the stores where he bought them were all gathered together. Maybe it was because of this that the evaluation was improved. In short, he gradually figured out the trick.

Linton breathed a sigh of relief after the construction task was completed. The next step was to deal with Melissa.

"If Miss Melissa believes me, then leave for your destination first. I still have some things to do here, but I will come to join you as soon as possible," Linton said.

"What's the matter? Do you need my help?" Melissa's expression didn't change and she asked with a smile.

"It's a private matter." Linton said simply, not wanting to disclose it, "but it's very important."

"I understand. In that case, I will follow the instructions of Lord Sword Master and go to Ma Enfila first." Melissa thought about it for a moment, and then said suddenly.
