Gu Ming made himself a new vest called "Makabaka".
The previous vest "This killer is a bit cold" was difficult to continue to use in a short time because he participated in the curse disaster incident in Silla City.
Fortunately, the Qianhuan Mask is a veritable artifact and vest. You can have as many as you want!
The mediocre ordinary player "Makabaka" returned to Lone Star City without being conspicuous at all.
According to the guidance of the "Wind Catcher" identity card, look for the old beggar NPC to hand over the task.
On the way, Gu Ming looked at the two newly obtained pieces of "biochemical equipment."
[Endless Heart]: It comes from a powerful hero "Dark Ranger". After the Dark Ranger was contaminated by the malice of the Abyss and turned into a corpse demon, a mysterious force split his body into seven parts. The heart part retains his last trace of conscience. Using this restless heart, the curse of the corpse demon can be restrained.
"The Dark Ranger was indeed dismembered! Divided into seven parts, the heart retains his last conscience, so Justice Superman can suppress the severed arm when holding the heart."
"Well... after ordinary players kill the Corpse Demon BOSS, they will be parasitized by the broken arm and become the new Corpse Demon BOSS. But with the heart, they should be able to avoid being parasitized. It is for this reason that Justice Superman dares to act unscrupulously. Release the corpse demon curse, because only he has the ability to kill the corpse demon BOSS..."
"But he didn't expect that the conch in my hand could also restrain the corpse demon's curse, and it could also restrain the heart... What is the origin of this mysterious conch?"
Gu Ming speculated curiously.
The mysterious conch is obviously more precious.
That’s what it should be!
You know, he got this mission item by directly slaughtering the entire troll village. There are not many players who can accomplish such a feat.
The task of the troll village was also issued to him by the old beggar.
The information introduction mentioned that the Dark Ranger degenerated into a corpse demon, and was attacked by a mysterious force, dividing his body into seven parts... This mysterious force could not be what the old beggar talks about all day long. Strictly speaking, Gu Ming is now the same. One of them is the "Jiantian Tower", right?
Then Brother Gu Ming took out the [Cursed Broken Arm] and explored the information: it came from a powerful hero "Dark Ranger". Using the correct method, the undead of the Dark Ranger can be summoned and driven to fight.
"Huh?"
Seeing this information, Gu Ming was stunned.
This information is obviously wrong and strictly inconsistent with its performance...
After thinking about it, Gu Ming conducted a [Mind's Eye] inspection on the severed arm!
Some items come with hidden information or require certain permissions to be seen.
But Gu Ming's [Mind's Eye] is very powerful, and he can decipher hidden information even in the first stage.
Sure enough, when Gu Ming examined it with his inner eye, he saw the hidden information of this severed arm item.
After the original explanation, a line of text was appended.
"Note: It is maliciously tainted by the abyss!"
This item has its own trap!
"There is also a reminder message! After ordinary players get the item, they can't see the reminder at all... The Emperor of Black Stone Cave probably became the Corpse Demon BOSS under such circumstances. He has no idea what this thing really is. Effect."
Gu Ming figured something out.
Looking at the information about the Broken Arm, it appears that this thing could have summoned the undead souls of the Dark Rangers, but it was only contaminated by malicious intent that it became the cursed item it is now...
If you can remove the malice from the item and purify the curse, can you still summon the undead Dark Ranger?
Thinking like this, Gu Ming soon spotted the old beggar at a corner of Lone Star City Street.
The NPC continued his rich daily life: looking at the big white legs of passing female players with a happy face.
After Gu Ming walked up to him, his expression suddenly became serious.
"Young man, I really saw you right. You successfully prevented this disaster!"
"Reminder: You have completed the lurking mission!
You get a reward: Reputation +200! "
"The reward is only 200 reputation points..." Gu Ming was a little disgusted.
But when I thought about how I had gotten nearly five hundred gold by auctioning immunity potions in Silla City, I didn't care.
Gu Ming held the broken arm and heart in his hands and tried to ask the old beggar if he knew the origin of these two items.
But after the old beggar saw the two items, his expression changed.
He showed an expression of sadness, anger and nostalgia, stretched out his hand, gently picked up the broken arm, and brushed his fingers on the black withered skin full of scars.
Gu Ming watched the old beggar's movements quietly.
The interaction in Age of Dawn is very good, but neither NPC nor players can directly take items from other objects. They must conduct "trade" or "task handover".
But the old beggar took the thing away just like people in the real world.
Gu Ming was not surprised, because he had now almost confirmed that the old beggar was the mysterious rich man who created the Dawn Era. He naturally had the highest authority in this game world.
"Do you know who the Dark Ranger is?" Gu Ming asked after the old beggar's expression calmed down a bit.
"Dark Ranger is a taboo in this world. Anyone who knows his past will be attacked by evil thoughts." The old beggar returned the broken arm to Gu Ming with a solemn expression.
Gu Ming looked shocked.
If you know the past, you may be attacked by evil thoughts?
The evil thought may be an undead monster like a cursed spirit... Isn't this too high-end?
The old beggar changed his tone at this time and said: "Only people with the same bloodline as the Dark Ranger are qualified to know his past and will not be attacked by evil thoughts!"
The same bloodline as Dark Ranger?
Gu Ming's eyes lit up.
He has long known that the Dark Ranger is of the same bloodline of the Ancient Saints as himself!
Gu Ming: "I have the same bloodline as him."
"Yes, you are qualified to know those past events." The old beggar smiled and nodded. He raised his head and recounted with memories on his face.
"Dark Ranger is a legendary hero..."
“After the last door to destruction was opened, the malice from the abyss surged out, and the world was about to end.
"The Dark Ranger was born in a dark world and grew up step by step from weakness."
“He wanted to bring dawn to a dark world.”
"He succeeded and became a hero who saved the world. By constantly fighting against the aliens in the abyss, he drove these evil guys back to the abyss..."
"But he himself was infected with the malice from the abyss, was cursed, and became a terrifying corpse demon."
"With the help of a mysterious force, he divided his body into seven parts and hid them all over the world, waiting for someone to collect his body again and help him get rid of the curse of evil thoughts!"
After listening to these words carefully, Gu Ming asked: "What is that mysterious force?"
The old beggar looked at Gu Ming with a smile in his eyes: "Young man, this is our Jiantian Tower."
really!
This is the same as Gu Ming's previous guess.
The Dark Ranger was dismembered by Jian Tian Tower... Judging from the information from the old beggar and the heart, the Dark Ranger may have become a corpse demon due to being cursed, and took the initiative to find Jian Tian Tower to dismember himself.
At the same time, although the old beggar's words were just a "background introduction" when the NPC released the task, Gu Ming vaguely detected some hidden information in it.
When Gu Ming was deep in thought, the old beggar said seriously: "Young man, a new round of invasion by the Abyss is about to begin. The Dark Ranger has the ability to re-seal the Abyss. Are you willing to help the Dark Ranger reassemble its body and summon the darkness?" The ghost of the ranger, help him get rid of the curse on his body?"
"Reminder: You have received a hidden mission, Dark Ranger.
Collect the body of the Dark Ranger (2/7) and help the Dark Ranger get rid of the curse!
Note: This mission can only be taken by players with the bloodline of the Ancient Saints!
Do you want to accept it? "
Sure enough, another hidden mission was triggered.
Only the blood of the ancient saints can be taken, and Gu Ming has previously obtained the mysterious conch that can suppress the curse of the corpse demon...
Haha, so this mission was prepared for him from the beginning, right?
"Take it!"
Although Gu Ming didn't like being arranged, he understood that the old beggar was on the "guarding" side, and his game path had been guided by him, so he had no reason to refuse.
…
The zombie demon disaster in Silla City has completely come to an end.
It’s just that from today onwards, Silla City will completely disappear and be replaced by the “cursed Silla City”.
Millions of players in Silla City were displaced.
Players who are trapped in Silla City and transformed into zombie demons are equivalent to dead, and can only be resurrected with the help of resurrection scrolls and other props.
Many players were resurrected immediately, and some players were reluctant to use the resurrection scroll and simply stayed dead.
Some players even threatened: What a rubbish game, I quit playing Smecta anymore...
The resurrected Silla City stick players are faced with a choice: which main city they want to join next.
Of course the Lighthouse Alliance would be happy to take them in.
But Bangzi is a nation with strong self-esteem, and the previous behavior of the Lighthouse Alliance seriously hurt their hearts.
They did not want to continue joining the Lighthouse Alliance, so they chose other alliance fronts, or maintained neutral main cities, and some even joined Wushuang City and Lone Star City.
Of course, there are also some stick players who still choose to hang out with the Lighthouse Alliance.
Finally, there are some players who have not chosen any main city and are planning to wait until the city battle is over before making a choice.
In Age of Dawn, players who have not chosen a guild are called Sanren.
Players who do not choose to settle in the main city are called ronin.
Ronin players are not bound to the blood pool, cannot be resurrected after death, and there are many tasks that cannot be accepted, but many players still choose to be Ronin.
This group of stick players choose to be rogue players for the time being.
Blood plain.
A team of Stick Ronin players appeared here.
"Axiba! The Lighthouse Alliance has gone too far and is unforgivable. I will never forgive them... I will make them regret it if I have the chance!" The player with the ID "Lion of Black Rock Cave" was whispering viciously.
The companions behind him also had angry expressions.
"I must make them kneel down and apologize!"
"After being deceived by them, the president actually chose to forgive them... I want to quit the Black Rock Cave Guild!"
"If we are strong enough..."
Just when they were angry, a figure shrouded in black robe suddenly appeared in front of them.
A name appeared above the head of this black-robed figure: Strange Mage!
"Exotic Mage!" The lion and his companions were shocked when they saw this name.
Of course they are not unfamiliar with this NPC.
In the Novice Village, it is a camp mission issued by the strange magician. Players can choose to join the abyss camp through it.
However, the strange magician disappeared after leaving Novice Village.
I didn't expect it to suddenly appear here...
"Do you want to become stronger?" It said to them in a bewitching voice.
