How to break the hatred value locked by the boss

Cannos Town is indeed a small town that couldn't be any smaller. There is not even a mission bulletin board in the town square. It is no wonder that the streets are full of NPCs, but there is no player in sight.

I walked around the town and found the location of the pharmacy without much effort, and then waited for the arrival of the alchemist Sayef.

In fact, to be honest, I have no idea about this hidden mission through the back door, because if I don’t know the character characteristics of the NPC and strike up a conversation without authorization, it may be counterproductive.Besides, how should I go up and talk to him?Just say "Hey! Dude, I have something here that you must be very interested in"?NPCs also have such things as IQ, okay? !

Just when I was hesitating, a man wearing a gray cloak who couldn't see clearly walked into the pharmacy.My mind was shaken, and I subconsciously felt that this guy was probably the Sayef I was looking for.

Judging from his behavior, Sayef should be a rather withdrawn person. He is like a shadow. He doesn't talk to anyone or look at anyone. He just walks into the pharmacy and puts the package in his hand. On the counter - it seems that it is an alchemist who sells potions for a living.

After observing for a short period of time, I successfully labeled Sayef as withdrawn, indifferent, suspicious, etc., and NPCs with such labels are obviously the least accessible to players, because once the behavior is a little suspicious, Then the favorability will fall directly to the bottom, and it will never get up again.

After thinking about it for a long time, I took out the badge from my pocket, pinned it on my chest, and walked towards the pharmacy as if nothing had happened.

Judging from the description of this task in the few sentences of Igerus, Sayev specially asked someone to go to the hidden laboratory of the dark library to find this badge, obviously because this badge is very important to him.Since it is important, the probability of recognizing it at a glance is relatively high. If I want to attract Sayef, I can't take the initiative—at least I can't seem to be active. Instead, I need him to come to me.

In order to attract the other party's attention more naturally, I took out a scroll from my pocket, pretended to look down, and then naturally bumped into Sayev who was still walking out of the pharmacy with his head down.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't look at the road. Are you okay?" Looking at Sayef who was so weak that he would fall when he hit him, I put on a guilty and worried look, bowed down while apologizing, and planned to help him up.

Sayef glanced at me with anger and malice with those hazy eyes, and waved his hand to open my hand, but his gaze suddenly stopped and stopped on my chest.

I raised the corners of my mouth in my heart, knowing that the fish had touched the hook, and the next step was to carefully reel in the line.

Sayev finally didn't refuse my help as he had first thought. He put his hand in mine slowly, and then I pulled him up forcefully.

"You didn't get hurt, right? It's all my fault." I showed a simple and honest smile, and scratched my hair. Many people said that I have a face that makes people the least vigilant, and I don't know if it is the same for NPCs. efficient.

Sayev looked me up and down, pursed his lips a little haughtily, and said hoarsely, "I fell and hurt a little, take me home."

My smile stagnated, and I hesitated: "Your home..."

"Don't talk nonsense, come with me." Sayev put his dry hand on my arm and walked forward. I shook my head with a wry smile as if pampering a pampered child, and took two quick steps to support him body, and then maintained a pace equal to his.

Feeling Sayev's flickering eyes, I actually felt a little bit of a drum in my heart, because this lich seemed to be much more active than I thought, disrupting my plan for a while.

In "The Lost City", the status of the player and the NPC is actually almost the same. The player often receives the task of which NPC to kill, and there are also a certain number of players who are deceived by the NPC to go to their homes or remote places, and then experience it. A handful of murdered pleasures.

I don't know if Sayef is planning to kill me and take the badge. If that's the case, it's really difficult...

After hesitating for a moment, I looked at the silent Sayef, quietly pulled out the text message interface, and asked for off-site assistance.

[Xia Yin: I was brought home by Sayev, will it be dangerous QAQ I don’t want to be downgraded...] Fortunately, as the boss-type NPC in the game, Igelus is online [-]/[-], so he The reply came quickly.

【Igerus: Be careful with his potion, don't give him a chance to use it on you, apart from the potion, he is vulnerable. ] Igelus' answer proved that Sayef might indeed kill me, but it also told me how to deal with it.Immediately, I gained a lot of confidence. It is not uncommon for NPCs to abuse players but are abused by players—well, of course, the opposite happens from time to time, such as me and Igerus...

[Igelus: Let him get the badge, but don't arouse his suspicion, and don't kill him, your mission is complete]【Xia Yin: What about the mission reward? !What about the promised reward for the hidden mission QAQ] [Igerus: ... I'll give it to you. 】

Satisfied, I cut off the text message.

Sayev's home is in Kannos Town... Well, I don't know the exact direction, anyway, I walked out of the town for about four or five minutes before I saw the simple and dilapidated small house in the jungle canyon. The shape of the wooden house has a sense of sight of the old witch's residence in the fairy tale film when I was a child.

Sayef let go of my arm, opened the creaking wooden fence gate, and motioned for me to follow.

But I stopped in my tracks and smiled helplessly: "Since I have sent you home, I will leave first."

Sayev turned his head, glanced at me, and finally raised his hand to lift the hood of the gray cloak, revealing a face that was not much better than a skeleton, with a mocking smile on it: "Why, are you afraid Did I do anything to you?"

"Indeed." I nodded honestly, "You don't look like an ordinary person, and this place is remote, and I... am not very strong, so it's better to be careful."

I've probably never seen someone so honest that I don't care about face. Sayev's expression was a little stiff, and he stretched out his hand into his arms, but I quickly pressed the dagger to his throat.

"Sorry, please don't make any unnecessary moves. I have heard of the reputation of alchemists, and I don't want to try the effects of your various potions at all."

Sayev snorted lightly, but finally kept his posture motionless, and cut straight to the point: "Let's make a deal, young man, I've taken a fancy to the badge on your chest—where did you get it?"

"Dark library." I looked at him vigilantly, trying to play a mature adventurer who is usually kind and helpful, but never jokes about his life at critical moments, "You know, that place is dangerous but Mysterious, it has been favored by adventurers recently, and I am one of the lucky ones, and by chance, I found a hidden but interesting place, but it is a pity that there is only such a badge that I can keep as a souvenir."

"It really is it..." Sayev lowered his voice, his body trembling slightly because of excitement, "For you, it may be just a souvenir, but for me it is a priceless treasure. Make your request, and then Give it to me!"

I cautiously stared into Sayev's eyes and said slowly, "Then, I think we can have a good talk. I think the current position is not conducive to bargaining. What do you think?"

"I have the same feeling." Sayef nodded slightly.

I smiled with satisfaction, and while retracting the dagger, quickly retreated and opened the distance, and Sayev also stretched out his hand from his pocket, empty-handed very sincerely.

Next is the time for any player to receive the prizes, and I squeezed a lot of good things from Sayef to my heart's content - in addition to many high-quality potions, there is even a compendium of alchemy!It was an unexpected big gain!

Similarly, Sayev, who kept muttering about "what a shrewd adventurer" and other complaints, got the old badge from me as he wished, and quickly put it in his pocket pocket.

I looked at him with a little sympathy—man, this thing is definitely not a treasure, but a time bomb!

Anyway, I got what I wanted, I did what Igerus asked, and after a friendly farewell to Sayef, I left his hut and returned to Karnos - thank goodness!This time I was lucky not to get lost!Of course, this is because there is only a faint path nearby.

As soon as I got back to the safe zone, the first thing I did was to take out the Alchemy Summary, then clap my hands up and study.

In "The Lost City", each player can only learn one life occupation. I first choose the thief who is matched with the assassin, because practicing the skills of a thief will not only improve my agility, but also enhance an opponent. A very important skill for assassins [Shadow Escape].

After learning the first life occupation, if you want to learn other life skills, you need to use life skill books such as [Alchemy Summary], but this kind of skill book can only be obtained by doing tasks to fight RP. Or obtaining it by desperately wooing key NPCs and the like can be said to be priceless, because once obtained, the first reaction of players is to learn rather than sell.

In the initial stage, alchemists are similar to pharmacists, making potions such as buffs or debuffs, but as the level increases, alchemists will reveal their unique charms, such as machinery, weapons, mechanisms, and magic circles. , scrolls... It seems that there is no field that alchemists have not set foot in. Alchemists are like an encyclopedia, kneading almost all professions together.

Of course, such a powerful life profession naturally has its hardships: firstly, it is difficult to get started, basically few players have successfully obtained the title of alchemist since the server was launched; secondly, it is difficult to upgrade, and the experience of each upgrade They are several times that of other life occupations; finally, the materials are hard to find. The materials needed by alchemists are different from other occupations. Most of them are precious items. The things that are produced are not worth the candle.

Because of this series of reasons, the alchemist has been evaluated by the players as the most flamboyant job in life, but that being said, if there is a chance to use alchemist as a second life job, I believe it will not be possible. People will say no.

I checked my alchemy interface with satisfaction. My current level is still [apprentice], and I can only make the most basic potions. After checking it, I happily opened a text message to report to Igerus.

[Xia Yin: The mission has been completed>///<seeking mission rewards! 】

[Igelus: What do you want? 】

I glanced at the materials needed from [Apprentice] to [Level [-] Alchemist], and then the lion reported a lot of things that I lacked.

[Igerus: ... have you become an alchemist? 】

Igelus's answer surprised me a bit, and I didn't have any other thoughts except that you are really knowledgeable, BOSS.

[Xia Yin: You are so wise! 】

【Igelus: ... You have already received the reward from Sayef, and you still want it from me? ] I silently watched Ygelus' answer, and felt that he seemed to be very happy.

[Xia Yin: One yard counts for one yard. What Sayev gave is what Sayev gave. This is what I worked hard for!Your reward is your reward, after all, I really got the mission from you this time!As the NPC who issued the task, you are obliged to award rewards to players who complete the task perfectly! 】【Igelus:...】
