“So you’ve played Philosopher’s Stone dozens of times and haven’t completed a single mission?”
On the way to the cemetery of Otter St. Catchpol Village, Irene's blue eyes widened and she asked in surprise.
Abo subconsciously looked in another direction and defended himself awkwardly:
"The task is very difficult for this kind of open special copy."
"What is the specific mission?"
Rossi curled up the corners of his mouth and got to the point at the right time.
"There are three tasks in total: first, enter Hogwarts; second, explore at least one secret place in Hogwarts; and finally, you need to find the Philosopher's Stone hidden in Hogwarts."
Hearing Abo's introduction, Rosie couldn't help but frown, her dark eyes full of doubts:
"Is this task difficult..."
Abo replied with a serious face:
"This mission is not as simple as it sounds. Unlike the "Chamber of Secrets" dungeon that starts with a reasonable identity and enters Hogwarts, this dungeon starts in the Leaky Cauldron in Brantania. .”
"During the term, to protect the safety of students, Hogwarts does not accept unreasonable visits."
"I once tried to sneak in, but as soon as I entered the gate, I triggered the castle's protection mechanism and was chased by a group of stone armors holding giant swords..."
Irene couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh when she imagined Abo being chased and killed by a group of stone statues:
"Then you are so miserable!"
"Being hunted...then what?" Rossi asked.
"The lowest level of the stone statues is 60. Of course I failed the mission." Abo curled his lips, then sighed deliberately, and continued: "In this case, you can only get 15 Galleons gold coin reward. .”
"15 Galleons? You can only get it? Ha, with this tone, I think you are just showing off!"
Rossi complained in his heart and asked again:
"Have you never found a reasonable way to get into Hogwarts?"
Abo shook his head and replied:
"I tried many things but nothing worked."
"Is it so difficult?"
Considering that in the original book, except for the two people who turned into animals and infiltrated Hogwarts through Animagus, there were no other adult visitors, Rossi felt a little understanding.
After thinking for a moment, she asked again:
"What about the time? When does the dungeon start?"
"The start time is the morning of August 25, 1991."
Arbor thought for a moment and added: "It's the week before Hogwarts starts."
"One week before school starts... Doesn't that mean you can meet many plot characters in Diagon Alley?" Rossi muttered silently, then asked:
"Then what information have you obtained during your exploration?"
Abo turned his head and glanced at Irene, whose eyes were also full of inquiry, and said softly:
"Some miscellaneous things cannot be connected together because of the lack of clues."
"For example, Harry Potter in the name of this game, in the copy, is known as the savior of the wizarding world, the Boy-Who-Lived. At a young age, he caused the ambitious Dark Lord Voldemort to drink to death."
"Voldemort?"
Hearing him mention this name, Erin couldn't help but asked in surprise, "Is it the one we met before?"
"Yes, that's him. But the NPCs in the dungeon all call him the mysterious man." After saying this, Abo seemed to have thought of something, smiled bitterly, and continued:
"When I first found out about the Dark Lord, I heard NPCs calling him Mysterious Man. I thought he would be the key to entering Hogwarts, so I wasted many dungeons to investigate him. I only found out that his name was Voldemort. He died years ago..."
Hearing this, Rossi suddenly burst into laughter and thought to himself:
"As far as the Philosopher's Stone is concerned, Voldemort is indeed the key to entering Hogwarts, well, as long as you are willing to be possessed by him."
"...Also, from the information I read in the newspaper, the day before the start of school at Hogwarts, Gringotts' vault 713 was robbed, but the thieves missed it. Well, the contents stored in this vault were exactly what they wanted. It’s the Philosopher’s Stone. When I downloaded a copy later, I grabbed it first at the beginning.”
As he spoke, he took out a rich ruby and waved it in front of Rossi's eyes, his expression full of showing off.
"Robbing?" Rossi was keenly aware of the other party's words.
"Yes, when I picked it up, I happened to bump into its owner. He was a hybrid giant." There was a bit of pride in Abo's eyes.
"Uh, hybrid giant? He's talking about Hagrid, right?" Rossi thought a little funny.
At this moment, a gray and white owl flew over. The moment it saw Rosie, it screamed loudly.
"Is he Jiang Jing's messenger? Has he completed his mission?"
Rossi muttered, raised his left arm to catch the owl, and took down Jiang Jing's letter:
"Rosie, I've finished my mission. Where are you? I'll find you."
"I'm..." Rossi was about to reply, but suddenly remembered that Abo was taking the lead in the copy, and couldn't help but frown and stopped replying.
"What's wrong? Xixi?" Seeing this, Irene seemed to notice her hesitation, and asked with a smile, "A friend is looking for you? Is it the little brother who saved you before?"
"Yes, I asked him to come to me after completing the task before..."
"Since we are friends, let him come with us. One more person will help us a lot." Before Rossi could finish speaking, Abo interjected, "Send him the coordinates of the cemetery and we'll wait for him to come together." .”
"He is a newbie and his level is not high." Rossi explained in advance.
"It's just a newcomer, I'm number one on the level list!" Abo raised his eyebrows and said confidently.
Seeing what he said, Rossi stopped talking. After explaining the situation to Jiang Jing, he sent the coordinates of the cemetery to him.
…
Soon, the four men met at the cemetery in the village of Ottery St. Catchpole.
After Rossi introduced the three of them to each other and exchanged a few brief greetings, Abo quickly walked to a tombstone engraved with strange symbols.
Immediately afterwards, he took out a bottle of scarlet-smelling liquid from his inventory and quickly poured it on the tombstone.
"The cemetery, the blood, the strange runes, this is like a cult ritual." Rossi chuckled and complained.
"But this looks very mysterious..." Erin whispered into her ear.
"Is that bottle of blood a mission prop? Or does it need to be collected by yourself?" Jiang Jing looked at the red liquid slowly flowing from the top of the tombstone and hesitated for a few seconds before asking.
"It's a mission prop. This is the item I got when I triggered the pre-quest of "Magic Stone". According to the convention of this game, you will get it directly after the copy is over." Abo explained with a smile, "Well, every time After a week, the liquid inside it will fill up on its own.”
"Oh!" Jiang Jing suddenly nodded and muttered quietly, "It's great if you can have sex for free."
"Well……"
Seeing Irene and Abo looking at Jiang Jing in surprise, Rosie couldn't help stroking her forehead and felt dumbfounded: "This guy is so embarrassing!"
