In the city, the Mage Temple.
Jiang Bai sat opposite Martin with a serious look on his face. After all, what happened today made him unable to relax.
Martin looked at the black marble in his hand, and saw his thumb rubbing it slightly, and then it flickered.
"Here, look."
Martin returned the marble to Jiang Bai.
[Special Demon Gathering Stone] (Special Props)
Item description: After killing a player from the enemy camp, there is a very low probability of absorbing 1%-10% of the player's current experience value and storing it. The current storage progress is 1798564/5000000; at the same time, there is a very low probability of absorbing 1 free attribute point from the player and storing it. Among them, the current storage progress is 4/30.
Usage of items: When the attribute points or experience points are full, gold coins need to be consumed according to a certain proportion to use them, and the stored experience values and attribute points will be obtained at the same time. After successful use, the [Spirit Gathering Stone] will disappear. (Cannot be used by non-deviant camp)
Jiang Bai stared at such a thing and was speechless.
In short, it’s just one word.
“This thing is so awesome!!!”
"Isn't this equivalent to the fully weakened version of my [Creation Heart]'s 'Plunder'?"
"With this thing, isn't it possible to grow infinitely? Why are we still riding horses to kill monsters? Just kill people every day!"
"this……"
Jiang Bai raised his head and met Martin's eyes. Martin seemed to see Jiang Bai's worry and shook his head with a smile.
"You don't need to be too alarmed."
The small black marble was held in Martin's hand, and Martin's hand did not move. The small marble turned into a ball of powder.
Then he said.
"Not everyone can own this thing. In the strange demon camp, if you don't have a very high level, you probably won't be able to use this thing."
"So, that guy is working for free?"
Jiang Bai looked at Martin with some doubts and asked.
Martin nodded.
"I think so. After all, according to your description, his level is not qualified to use this thing. This thing is quite precious."
"How precious?"
Still uneasy about the item, Jiang Bai continued to ask, after all, this thing affected the balance too much.
"Exceptionally precious."
Martin smiled and answered briefly and forcefully.
"..."
Jiang Bai was speechless.
"I know what you're worried about."
Martin gently held the frame of his glasses that was about to fall off, and still spoke calmly.
"It is the top product of Yimo Technology. Not to mention that there is a limit on the number of times it can be used. Even if there is no limit, I'm afraid there won't be too many spirit-gathering stones for him to waste."
"Actually, that's not what you should be concerned about right now."
Martin blew it gently, and the thing disappeared into the air.
"What you should be concerned about is that at this stage, this kind of thing should not have appeared. Now it seems that the situation is not good. The original plan has deviated. Not only did the strange demons awaken in advance, They are even carrying out their plans in secret, and the future becomes increasingly uncontrollable."
"They are also secretly looking for ways to deal with us, and the most deadly thing is that there are already people in your adventurer camp who have taken refuge in the strange demonic forces."
"You have to know that if you find that a person has taken refuge in a strange demon, then this is probably just the tip of the iceberg."
After Martin finished speaking, he stared at Jiang Bai with a deep gaze. It was a gaze that came from the depths of the soul, making people feel that there was nothing to hide in front of Martin.
"But why is this so? Isn't this a game? Why does death occur?"
"this is very simple."
Martin spread his hands towards Jiang Bai.
"For humans, this is a game, but for humans and monsters, this is war, a real war."
With that said, Martin stood up forward, approached Jiang Bai, lowered his voice, and spoke in a way that was close to lip language.
"You should know that this is more than just a game. My adventurer, aren't you mentally prepared?"
"have."
"That's good."
Martin, who sat back in his seat, looked at Jiang Bai meaningfully and said.
"Adventurer, you should clearly understand the situation in front of you, but you should also know what you should do now."
"What appears now are just clues. What should come will always come. What you should do now is to continue to improve yourself and be fully prepared for the upcoming unknown. At the same time..."
"At the same time what?"
Jiang Bai suddenly raised his head and looked at Martin's eyes that were shining and as vast as the starry sky.
"You should investigate this matter secretly. Since the [Special Demon Gathering Stone] has been discovered by you, the mission must naturally be shouldered by you."
"Ding! You trigger the epic hidden main quest - [Exploring the secrets of strange demons]. Do you accept it?"
Jiang Bai was shocked when he heard this, accepted the task without hesitation, and then opened the task panel.
[Exploring the secrets of strange demons] (epic hidden main line)
Mission description: The sleeping monsters have awakened early. They seem to be carrying out some unknown activities. A huge crisis may come in the near future, and you need to figure out what is going on.
Mission requirement: Find the adventurer leader who betrayed the alien demon.
mission rewards:? ? ?
"Good guy."
"The fight revealed an epic hidden plot?"
"None of this should be the original design of the game."
Jiang Bai thought as he walked out.
"As Martin said, this was unplanned and, simply put, the direction of the game was spiraling out of control."
"Damn it, wouldn't it be dangerous if you think about it this way?"
Just when Jiang Bai was about to step out of the temple gate.
Martin's voice full of vicissitudes of life came from behind.
"Adventurer, you shouldn't ask about the past about this kind of thing, you should ask about the future."
"Um?"
Jiang Bai was stunned and turned his head, but he could no longer see Martin.
"Past? Future?"
"If NPCs like Martin are in the past, players like them should be in the present. So what about the future?"
"Who is the future?"
Clearly, Martin meant something.
"Has Qiu Feng been rescued?"
"Who is that shadow?"
Obviously, the only breakthrough lies with Tang Qiufeng.
Thinking about it, Jiang Bai opened his friend list and sent a message to "Sad Panda".
"Panda, help me check this person, 'Autumn Wind of the Tang Dynasty', a former elder of the Tang Dynasty."
This time the panda didn't come back quickly, it took about five or six minutes.
"No need to check, it's meaningless. You can understand that he is offline permanently."
"What!?"
"No, he should be resurrected!!"
Jiang Bai looked at the words sent by the panda with a shocked face and replied.
"Besides, there's no point in talking about this anymore. Come to the crotch grill restaurant now. My boss wants to see you."
"..."
Jiang Bai was speechless.
"What kind of restaurants? Each one is weirder than the last!!!"
