"Okay, thank you Miss Lisa for your cooperation. Isn't there any more desert folk history besides this?"
In the hall of the leader of Ghost Town, Lisa gave all the information she could collect to Liao Yu, the divine envoy.
Yes, in the eyes of the desert people, Liao Yu, Welxi, etc., both have terrifying monsters and can easily withstand hurricanes and sandstorms. They must be His envoys of the Sand Sea, and it is He who gives them the salvation of these desert people.
Liao Yu didn't bother to correct his title or anything, not to mention that it was indeed very helpful for him to quickly gain the trust of the desert people.
The purpose of coming to Ghost Town was not the desert people, but the ghosts. When Liao Yu first heard the information from Hill that the people of these ghost tribes seemed to have the same name and knew nothing about "ghosts", he didn't know anything about them. I didn’t give up and thought of many possibilities.
After all, the real "ghosts" he is looking for are his partners from thousands of years ago or their descendants. More importantly, they are also the troubles that the "traitor" has always wanted to find and get rid of.
Therefore, if he found it so easily and instantly, Liao Yu still didn't believe it.
One of the possibilities that Liao Yu thought of was that Lisa and these desert people were just external covers, and only real companions could see through the hidden information behind them.
That's why Liao Yu stayed behind and asked Lisa about many things carefully, and also made some insinuations, but unfortunately he found nothing, and there was no clue about her partner from a thousand years ago.
Even if he looked through the collected books in Ghost Town, he seemed to be unable to find any useful information about the past of the desert people.
Apart from
Liao Yu finally sorted it out, and the only ones that were related to "thousand years ago" were the only ones left
"Miss Lisa, can you show me your leader's token?"
slate.
According to the legend of the desert people, a stone slab fell from the sky for thousands of years and guided their ancestors to find the first oasis.
It was also because even after the desert people fell, they never forgot it and even regarded it as a token of leadership.
Lisa did not hesitate and quickly handed the necklace of slate fragments from her chest to Liao Yu.
However, Lisa still had a gloomy expression during the process, not because of Liao Yu, but because there were still some blood stains on the fragments of the stone slab, which came from her brother.
So if Liao Yu wanted this piece of slate now, Lisa would not be reluctant to part with it. She would give up completely, because to her, it would be like Liao Yu helping her get rid of a painful memory.
Lisa was right.
Liao Yu really had no intention of returning the slate.
You cannot return an item if it belongs to you.
When the slate fragments approached Liao Yu, there was no obvious reaction like the scroll of the "Home System".
It wasn't until Liao Yu touched the fragment that it suddenly dimmed and then extinguished, and finally some faint light shone.
Lisa was not surprised by this.
She originally regarded Liao Yu as a divine messenger, and the fact that the fragments would react to Liao Yu only proved it further.
But Liao Yu's side
【The Moment of the Earth (Fragments)】
[Collect all fragments to activate the "map" function]
【Currently required 5/104】
The prompts that appeared in front of him proved Liao Yu's guess.
Sure enough, it was another relic that saved the world.
And the category is not a prop like a holy sword, but a "system".
hiss.
Why does Liao Yu feel like Zhoumu's own game character is just like having gold coins exploded, and the system is scattered everywhere.
The previous "home system" is like this.
The current "map" function looks even worse. It's completely broken into pieces. The piece in my hand is only 5/104 of a slate?
Anyway.
This time I ran through the Syndicate with great effort, and finally my trip was not in vain.
Map functionality is common in almost all games.
In "The Devil", Liao Yu thought about it for a moment. Apart from the most basic and simple "guiding" ability, the map system should also bring him two major conveniences.
The first is the teleportation anchor point.
Players in the game can run around the world relying on the sub-function of the map system, the teleportation anchor point. With this, players can complete the most perfect instant teleportation without any backswing or chanting.
Of course, some restricted special scenes and regions are excluded, but these are basically a very small number. Most of the time, the teleportation anchor point can be said to be Liao Yu, and the most frequently used system capabilities are not excessive.
In particular, in addition to the official anchor points in the game, players can also spend "starlight" to make their own teleportation anchor points, but it is a bit expensive. With the shortage of starlight in the game, Liao Yu is reluctant to do it, but it is different now. If the whole world is plugged into the anchor points he made, will his transfer ability still need to be like it is now? He has to fly as a Chimera for a whole day to go to a syndicate.
Besides the teleportation anchor point, the second thing that Liao Yu values is the map's "exploration display" ability.
As the name suggests.
Many games also do this, marking on the map where there may be treasure chests, ruins, dungeon caves, special areas, etc.
Although this is the real world now, there should be no such thing as treasure chests everywhere, but Liao Yu feels that searching for ruins and caves is still about looking forward to it. This is likely to become his best compass.
No matter what, the slate fragments must be collected!
After confirming the goal, the next step is how to implement it.
This is not easy.
"Lisa, when did this stone slab break?"
"At least three to four hundred years ago."
"So the slate fragments have been circulating among your various tribes and gangs for the past three to four hundred years?"
"Yes, some black market traders will use it as currency, and some tribal leaders I know use these as collectibles. There are also many fragments that may have been scattered everywhere, lost and abandoned in corners."
Lisa's words made Wilsey frown a little.
She could tell that this slate was probably an extremely helpful item for the professor.
But now.
It is equivalent to fragments of slate, scattered throughout the Syndicate, and has been lost for hundreds of years. It is not just held by a few big forces, it is likely that ordinary people will pick it up.
If they really wanted to find them one by one, such a workload would probably require most of the power of the Shadow Demon Tribe.
But the sand sea environment and high exposure to the sun can be said to be the most annoying environment for Shadow Demon, which further reduces efficiency.
What's more, Shadow Demon also has to take care of Illinois. If Zhenfen comes to join the syndicate, what will happen to Illinois?
After asking Lisa to retreat, Liao Yu meditated alone at the table, playing with the slate fragments in his hands.
really.
If you want to be secretive and keep a low profile, you can only choose to take the path of the Shadow Demon.
But the efficiency is too poor.
And there is a risk of losing sight of the other. Illinois has just been under their control, so they cannot mobilize the Shadow Demon at this time.
After rejecting Shadow Demon's plan.
What's left is to invade the Syndicate on a large scale, conquer all the Syndicates, subdue every tribe and gang, and then mobilize them to find it for themselves and ask them to hand over the stone fragments.
This method is feasible and feasible.
But the truth is the last resort.
The Syndicate is surrounded by three major countries, second only to the Empire. The Holy Kingdom of Radiance, the Tribunal, and the Sorcerer Kingdom have corresponding fates. They are the three major factions that are in the protagonist camp in the game and are absolutely "great and upright". ——Brilliance, judgment, wisdom and harmony
These three major countries are different from Illinois.
Their national strength, now Liao Yu has to put a question mark, and the Syndicate is at the junction. The three major countries did not care about the Syndicate before, not only because the Syndicate is a desert sand sea, but also because the Syndicate itself is chaotic and disorderly.
But if a powerful new force suddenly appears in the Syndicate and integrates all the tribal gangs with a sweeping force, then Liao Yu doesn't think that if the three major congresses sit back and do nothing, then he may lose a little and lose a lot. The greatest advantage of being in the dark.
It looks like this.
Um.
It does seem a bit tricky.
Is there really no way to achieve both concealment and efficiency, the best of both worlds?
Of course there is.
Liao Yu stopped spinning the slate fragments in his hand.
He let out a long breath, and the frown he had before was long gone now, replaced by a kind of eager anticipation.
Seeing Liao Yu like this, Wilsey knew that the professor must have a solution.
The elf curiously asked: "Professor, so what are you planning to do?"
"Wilsey, have you ever played a dungeon, or a dungeon, that kind of thing where you call your friends together, work hard to conquer it, operate step by step, try again and again, refer to the strategy, and finally defeat the boss after a lot of hard work and get the items in the dungeon. Treasure chest treasure.”
Facing Liao Yu's rhetorical question, a big question mark rose above the elf's head.
Seeing this, Liao Yu couldn't help but shook his head.
"What a pity Wilsy. Think about it this way, the same goes for the demons. In other games, there will be dungeons and other dungeons that use tempting treasures to attract and deceive adventurers and brave men from all walks of life. They are full of dungeons. All kinds of slimes, goblins, tentacle monsters, etc., then kill all the men and all the women."
Liao Yu muttered in a low voice. Although there were demons in the week-long episode "Demon", the focus was entirely on the battle between humans and demons. On the contrary, the most classic dungeon gameplay was not included.
Then you have to give this world a good supplement.
Fortunately, the sixth floor of the Magic Tower is still empty.
Just think of it as an experiment.
Magic Tower safety assessment.
I kindly invite all tribes and gangs of the Syndicate to experience such classic game content. It’s not too much to ask for admission tickets. One slate fragment comes in once. Compared with the endless treasures in it, it is definitely cheap and high-quality.
Wilsey could almost understand what Liao Yu meant, which was to use the magic tower to create an area similar to a ruins to attract the Syndicate, which required stone slabs to enter.
In this way, there is no need for them to look for it. Instead, the Syndicate people will take the initiative to send the stone slabs over. In order to get more treasures in them, they will spontaneously help them find the stone slabs on a large scale.
With the accumulation of demons, it should not be a problem to seduce humans. Just the various magic props, scrolls, and weapons made by the third-level demons make even their elves excited, let alone the Syndicate humans here. .
sharp!
As expected of a professor!
But Wilsey still has a problem.
"Professor, is it wise to let them enter the Magic Tower, in case they leak our information after they get out?"
Regarding this question from the pure elf, Liao Yu shook his head.
As a player, he hates two types of people the most in the game.
One is someone who designs disgusting copies to disgust him.
The other one is to prevent him from disgusting other players by designing disgusting copies.
From the Demon King's dungeon, do you still want to get out alive?
Who are you looking down on?
