Please charm this NPC

"How? What's the progress?" Seeing Ran Wenyu's excited expression, Augustus immediately knew that he had gained a lot, and asked quickly.

Ran Wenyu cocked his tail triumphantly, and told the truth about how he recognized his mother, how he aroused middle-aged women's gossip about sex, and the past of the Silent family and Baron Silent.

Augustus didn't have any extra sympathy for Baron Slant's accidental killing of his father, and quickly focused on the key point: "So, now we're going to start looking for that violet stone?"

"It must be so." Ran Wenyu nodded, "And I guess, it is still in the hands of Baron Silent in all likelihood."

Augustus thought about it.

After a while, Augustus looked at Ran Wenyu: "Tomorrow, let's split up. You stay in the study and see if you can find information about this stone in the books—if Baron Silent cares about this stone so much , even if you kill your father for this, you don’t want to let go, and you will definitely search for relevant information.” After a pause, Ran Wenyu agreed without any objection, and he continued, “I will find an excuse to go out of the study , to talk to the maid Lisa."

"Can Lisa know?" Ran Wenyu raised his eyebrows.

"I can't be sure, but it's worth trying." Augustus replied, "Robert's housekeeper is definitely unable to inquire about the news, so the only person who is most active in the mansion is Lisa who is responsible for cleaning the rooms, and she is also The person who has most frequent contact with Baron Slanter and who is most likely to have seen that stone."

Ran Wenyu nodded knowingly: "Then I'll leave it to you...is it okay?"

"It shouldn't be a problem. I've already talked to her on the first day I came to Prost Manor, and we seem to get along pretty well." Augustus smiled slightly, "I think she should have a good impression of me. .”

"Really?" Ran Wenyu was gossiping, "Did you charm her?"

"No, I don't have charm skills." Augustus shrugged his shoulders, "However, to develop a relationship between a player and an NPC, it is not necessary to use skills to forcibly gain the favor of the other party. I think this mod world is quite real. As long as you communicate with NPC with your heart, you can get sincere feedback from the other party."

"...that's right." Ran Wenyu nodded - when he chatted with the cook Emily last night, he didn't use the charm skill, but he still won Emily's deep affection and heard the news smoothly.It seems that as long as the performance is in line with the preferences of the NPC, it is possible to get the favor of the NPC.

——In this way, is it possible that Arthur's initiative to himself is also because his actions are in line with the other party's wishes?What is the cuteness of the other party?A cynical, despondent, useless poor boy?What kind of weird hobby is this? !

Unaware of Ran Wenyu's shocked OS, Augustus continued: "I think Lisa's affection for me is not just a simple liking for me, it's more like..." He narrowed his eyes slightly. Eyes, considering the appropriate words, "The noble young master and the beautiful maid, this kind of pairing is very popular among girls, and my appearance just happens to fit the fantasy of the other party full of girlish thoughts—you understand?"

"...Understood." The corner of Ran Wenyu's mouth twitched.

——This is just like the CP between the domineering president and the small staff, which is an enduring bridge in romance novels.

After discussing the next move, Ran Wenyu felt a lot more at ease. He said goodbye to Augustus happily, and then returned to his room relaxed, and finally had a good night's sleep.

The result of a good night's sleep was that Ran Wenyu was extraordinarily energetic after waking up, and anyone could tell that he was in a good mood.

Finding that Ran Wenyu had regained the energy he had when he first came to Prost Manor, everyone in the mansion was relieved. When Emily served breakfast, she secretly winked at him. The tacit smile—carrying a little secret that only each other knew made the relationship between Emily and Ran Wenyu a little closer.

In short, Ran Wenyu had a very smooth breakfast, and then he plunged into the study.After the meal, Augustus went to Butler Robert.

"Master Tang, what are your orders?" Robert bowed slightly and asked respectfully.

"I've finished reading the book, and I'm thinking about how to write an article next." Augustus replied, "I want to go around the mansion, or sit in the garden, is that okay? I always stay in the study, It will make my mind rigid, and walking around to relax my mind will give me a lot of inspiration and enlightenment."

Robert showed a look of embarrassment, as if he wanted to persuade him, but Augustus had an aura of a gentleman, which made him instinctively dare not forcefully veto the other party's decision.What's more, the master only ordered him to observe the actions of the two heirs, supervise them to complete the task conscientiously, and let them stay in the study as much as possible, but he did not clearly express that they were not allowed to leave.

After pondering for a moment, Robert smiled again: "Of course, Master Tang. I just hope you don't waste your time. The master asks me to report the movements of the two young masters every day. I don't want him to criticize you for this."

"Of course, thank you for the reminder." Augustus replied with a smile, "I can guarantee that I did this to write better articles."

After finishing speaking, he nodded goodbye to Butler Robert, then turned and left the restaurant, his movements happened to make eye contact with the maid Lisa who was cleaning the table.Augustus showed a masculine smile to Lisa, and there were ambiguous hints in those smiling eyes, but Lisa hurriedly looked away, her fair face blushing quietly.

When Augustus hooked up the beautiful maid without a trace, Ran Wenyu had already arrived in the study, worrying about the full bookshelf.

If you want to find information in a large number of books, the best skill is "library use". However, as a poor boy who has just barely escaped the illiteracy stage and has only 30 education, this is simply embarrassing him!

Ran Wenyu scratched his little curly hair, so he could only ask KP for help: "KPP~ If I want to find information about violet stones, what else can I use besides 'library use'?"

KP pondered for a moment: [Since the strength is not enough, it can only be luck.How about you try to get lucky? 】

"Good idea!" Ran Wenyu's eyes lit up, and he didn't even bother to accuse KP of despising his strength, so he immediately gave him a thumbs up, "KP, you are awesome!"

——In short, no matter how dangerous KP is, there is nothing wrong with flattering and liking more!

KP: 【…………………………】

——When it doesn’t go well, it’s “dog KP”, and when it goes well, it’s “KP is awesome”, hehe, human beings.

Poor Ran Wenyu didn't know that he had been seen through by KP boss. After flattering KP, he rubbed his hands and turned the turntable.

KP: 【Lucky check: Ran Wenyu, 70/3, great success. 】

Ran Wenyu: 0v0

KP was silent for a moment, probably because he regretted that Ran Wenyu had acted like a baby, so he released the water—originally, he planned to open a small hole for him, but he didn't expect it to turn into a sluice to release the flood.

After a while, KP coughed lightly, and then accepted the reality, and began to narrate: [Facing a bookcase full of books, you don't know where to start, so you can only take a book at random.Probably because your action of pulling out the book is too big, causing a whole row of books to fall with your action.You hurriedly rescued them, trying to put them back in place, but still one slipped through the net and fell off the bookshelf, and the pages were flipped open and fell to the ground upside down. 】

Following KP's description, Ran Wenyu ordered and moved one by one, tidying up the row of books in a hurry.Then, he squatted down, picked up the last book, glanced casually, and suddenly saw a word "the violet eye of God".

Ran Wenyu: Damn it, it really deserves to be a lucky success!

This big success not only allowed him to find the correct book, but also presented the answer directly in front of his eyes without him having to search page by page.It's as refreshing as if the exam not only opened the book, but the teacher also issued the correct answer directly.

Holding the book, Ran Wenyu was in a daze for a moment, and then continued to flatter him without forgetting the original: "Thank you, big brother!"

KP: [...You're welcome. 】

The goal was easily achieved, and Ran Wenyu, who was always lucky, was very happy.He stood up, walked to the desk impatiently, and sat down.

"It seems that you have a reason for shutting us up in the study, big brother. There are so many clues here!" Ran Wenyu happily opened the pages of the book, "Then why did you come here for the first time? Augustus's library was successful. but did not find any useful clues?"

【That’s because you didn’t know anything at the time. 】KP answered every question, 【At that time, even if he saw the Mayan civilization or even the violet God's Eye, he would filter them out as irrelevant information and would not pay any attention to them. "Library usage" is not a panacea, only when you know what you are looking for can you find the corresponding content smoothly. 】

Ran Wenyu obeyed obediently.

Next, he terminated the conversation with KP, and carefully read the content on the page.What surprised him was that this book did not describe the Mayan civilization, but the history and legends about the Gypsies.

The ancestors of the Gypsies are the Dom people of ancient India, and the ancestors of the Dom people are the Wu tribe in the northwest region of ancient India.After the foreign invaders gained the ruling power in ancient India, the witches were reduced to the inferior people and were rejected by other ethnic groups in ancient India. Later, they wandered to West Asia and Europe, and around the 10th century, they spread all over the world.From the 9th century to the 10th century, it happened to be the beginning of the Mayan civilization passing through its heyday and turning from prosperity to decline.

Gypsies wander all year round and do not want to be bound by any laws. They are passionate, good at singing and dancing, fortune-telling and divination is a traditional industry of Gypsy women, and most of their images in the hearts of the people are crystals The ball, a hand of Tarot cards, knowing the past and communicating the future.

——Speaking of it, it has a unique connection with the "power of prophecy" of the Mayan civilization.

As for the "violet eye of God" mentioned in the book, it comes from a gypsy ballad.This song has been passed down from generation to generation among the gypsies. The source is no longer testable. The lyrics are full of praise and rich imagination. Ran Wenyu has read it back and forth several times. Only then did I barely understand a general idea.

In the ballad, this violet stone is the eye of the great god left on the earth. The image of the god is a huge rainbow-colored light ball that lives in the rift of the plane and connects all time and space itself.

Holding the "God's Eye" and meditating quietly, the human spirit will be integrated with the "God's Eye", seeing the ancient times, the future, and even another world.However, humans who try to peek into the realm of the gods will be punished by the gods. They will be swallowed by the messengers sent by the gods and disappear forever in this world.

While racking his brains, Ran Wenyu wrote down the original text of the poem and his own understanding on the white paper.Just when he was concentrating, he suddenly heard KP's voice again: [Now, please have an inspiration. 】

Ran Wenyu:? ? ? ? ? ?

Ran Wenyu suddenly felt bad, but his body was forced to keep his head down and write, and he was not allowed to move a bit except for the hand that was not holding the pen.

With black and white eyes rumbling around, Ran Wenyu tried to see what was going on in the study, but he couldn't find anything after scanning around, so he could only turn the dial nervously.

KP: [Inspiration check: Ran Wenyu, 75/35, successful.When you are immersed in reading, you suddenly feel a strange sense of distortion in the room. If you don’t pay attention to this feeling, you will completely ignore it, but you have a keen mind and accurately captured it. A strange change. 】

After the test was successful, Ran Wenyu immediately regained control of his body.He sat up straight suddenly, looked around the entire study, and soon saw an imperceptible distortion of the space in a certain corner of the study, and then a large cloud of dark purple smoke came out.

Ran Wenyu was startled.He jumped up instinctively, hurriedly stuffed his notes into his trousers pocket, and then touched himself, and then found desperately that after arriving at Prost Manor, he probably found a little friend, and he had been at ease for too long , I even forgot to prepare a useful weapon for myself!

Now, I have only one person, but I have to face terrifying monsters. This is simply the rhythm of tearing cards!Ran Wenyu was anxious, he glanced at the metal desk lamp on the desk, his eyes lit up, and he reached out and picked it up.

The weight of the metal table lamp is extremely heavy, and there is this exquisite carved pattern on it. If it is rammed heavily, the lethality will definitely not be small.

With a weapon in his hand, Ran Wenyu felt a little relieved. While staring at the cloud of purple smoke for a moment, he carefully moved to the door of the study, planning to rush out if something went wrong.

Under Ran Wenyu's gaze, the fog became thicker and bigger, and a stench came faintly, which made people feel almost suffocating.At this time, Ran Wenyu also came to the door of the study, holding the desk lamp in one hand, and touched the doorknob with the other hand, and turned it around.

Then, his cold sweat came down.

The door handle can be turned, but the door seems to be firmly nailed by some force, no matter how hard Ran Wenyu pushes and pulls, it will not move at all.

Obviously, the moment that thing appeared, this study room was separated from normal time and space, making it impossible for the targeted prey to escape easily.

Although there was no way out, Ran Wenyu calmed down instead.His back was pressed against the door, holding the lamp with both hands, staring intently at the smoke, planning to fight with his back.After an unknown amount of time—maybe it was just a short moment—a monster's claw protruded from the smoke, and slowly stepped on the wooden floor of the study.That claw is very sharp, but very thin, like skin and bones, wrapped under the light blue skin, that layer of skin is wet, covered with cyan mucus with foul smell, dripping to the ground .

Ran Wenyu's hair stood on end, and he clenched the lamp in his hand even more tightly, his knuckles were slightly white.

After a paw protruded out of the smoke, the monster's head gradually appeared a silhouette, but before Ran Wenyu could see its appearance clearly, he heard a few polite knocks on the door: "Mr. Ran, excuse me. I Can I come in?"

The voice was Asum, Ran Wenyu was a little dazed, and didn't react for a while, but the monster hidden in the deep purple smoke was the one who responded faster than him, and it suddenly retracted its claws. The cloud of smoke also dissipated.At the same time, the door of the study room that Ran Wenyu was leaning against was pulled open. Ran Wenyu staggered, fell backwards, and then fell into a slightly cold embrace.

"...Mr. Ran? Are you okay? What's the matter?" Asham hugged Ran Wenyu who was leaning back accurately, slightly lowered his head, his extremely handsome face was full of surprise and worry.

Ran Wenyu, who was holding the desk lamp with both hands, and was hugged from behind, raised his head in bewilderment, and looked at Asham: "………………………"

--who I am?where am I?How should I answer? !Help, good party!

The author has something to say: Is this considered Brother Milk Tea (wrong!) a hero saving the beauty? www
