Chapter 248 Hero-Level Mission! (Two in One)

A large group of people returned to Baishi Town in a mighty manner.

The residents of Baishi Town were very panicked at first, but when they saw that this team was not a robber, but a humanoid convoy carrying supplies, the panic was weakened a lot, replaced by curiosity, and they came one after another. .

Bai Xiaowen stood on top of one of the piles of wood and delivered a speech condescendingly.

"My people, from today onwards, the miserable life will be gone forever."

"Look at these people, they used to be members of the largest bandit gang in this town, the Black Wind Bandit! However, now they have been influenced by me, accept my adaptation, and become the glorious warriors of the White Rock Town Construction Corps. Yes, black Ian, the leader of the Wind Bandit Group, has been put to death, and this criminal bandit group has become the dust of history!"

"This is just the beginning. Next, we will capture and recruit more robbers and enrich the Baishi Town Construction Corps. We will build a large number of houses for homeless refugees and homeless people to live in, and we will cultivate more There will be more farmland for farmers who have lost their land to cultivate, and we will open up trade routes to allow more traveling caravans to come and trade with us in exchange for the necessities of life.”

"I, the lord of White Rock, Dio Skelboom, will do what I say. Any territorial citizen of White Rock who has no home and is plagued by the cold winds of the north can go to my housekeeper Harvey and apply for the construction of a A wooden house."

In the crowd, the silver miner Anton couldn't hold back his excitement, he walked over and knelt at Bai Xiaowen's feet: "Your strength and kindness will always be remembered, Lord Lord!"

Originally, there was a side quest in Anton, which was to destroy the Black Wind Bandit. He didn't expect that Bai Xiaoming refused the mission on the surface, but in fact he rushed to the cliff mine overnight and took down the rampant Black Wind Bandit in one fell swoop.

After receiving the favorability prompt from Anton, Bai Xiaowen jumped off the pile of wood, nodded and said, "Harvey, Anton, a worker at the Baishi Silver Mine, recently burned down his home by the Black Wind Bandit, so he was the first household to apply for the construction of a wooden house. family."

Harvey had long since recovered from his surprise and replied loudly: "As you order, Lord Lord. Mr. Anton will definitely own the strongest wooden house in White Rock Town."

Anton was so excited that he burst into tears, knelt down and kissed Bai Xiaowen's shoes.

With Anton's example, other territorial residents came forward one after another to apply for the construction of wooden houses. For a time, Harvey was in a hurry.

Some territorial residents said boldly: "Lord lord, we have no food, and we have to endure hunger every day. Can you exchange the wooden house for us with food?"

Kitts glared and said, "I'm not satisfied with the gift of Lord Lord, are you bargaining here?"

Bai Xiaowen had a case for this long ago, smiled and raised his hand and said: "Don't be nervous, there will be wooden houses, and there will be food. Any resident who is in good health can apply to join the Baishi Town Construction Corps and exchange labor for food rations! "

At present, the five teams under the "Construction Corps" are all robbers with a single composition. Bai Xiaowen intends to recruit a group of confederates and fill them into the construction corps, so that it will be more reassuring to use.

In the near future, Bai Xiaowen has formulated a phalanx of development, that is, to support the war with war, to incorporate other robber dens, and to buy food to support the soldiers with the captured money.

Of course, this method is not a long-term solution. Once the robbers' dens are cleared, the territory of Baishi Town, which lacks continuous income, will definitely fall into the dilemma of money shortage and food shortage, but that is already many days later.

Besides, Bai Xiaowen planned to go to the Black Rock line of defense after recruiting a certain number of troops. When the time comes to join the Human Race Allied Army, are you still worried about no food? nonexistent.

After this speech, Bai Xiaowen, the lord, has made a big splash in Baishi Town, and his lord page has also changed.

The population column has increased from the original 7 to 183, and the number is still jumping up. This means that he is willing to obey his orders, and the number of people who are radiated by his influence is increasing.

In the building materials column, the number displayed is 36, which is the timber material dismantled from the camp of the Black Wind Bandit. After inquiry, the number of "36" means that it is enough to build 36 wooden houses.

The grain column has increased to 783. This is also the grain that was brought back from the camp of the Black Wind Bandit Corps. It is needed for the construction of the corps. It is no problem to support it for a few days. Of course, now it's time to think about buying food.

The column of people's heart has been raised to 15, Bai Xiaowen can't help but sigh, the people are really easy to satisfy.

The livability was suddenly raised to 13, a full ten points increase. This is enough to show that the Black Wind Bandit Group has a great influence on the territory of Baishi Town.

What doesn't change is the degree of prosperity, which is still only 5 points. However, when the grain trade line is established, there will be caravans coming, and the prosperity will definitely increase.

Bai Xiaowen left Kitts, Bonita and Harvey to preside over the order, and he and Li Shuyi entered the lord's mansion. The treasure chest for killing Ian and his elite bandits has not yet been opened.

Bai Xiaowen first opened Ian's golden treasure chest.

The battle rating is A, there are ten gold cards in total, and there are three chances to draw without a bye.

However, before the extraction, Bai Xiaowen got the prompt information:

"You got a special item: Ian's Journal. This item is guaranteed to drop and will not enter the loot draw list."

Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes.

"This robber leader, Ian, is really not an ordinary robber, but has a secret."

Bai Xiaowen opened the log and browsed it roughly.

On the title page of the journal, there is a paragraph:

[I, Ian Benedict, swear to always be loyal to the Holy Light, to practice the way of knighthood forever, until the end of my life. 】

Li Shuyi frowned: "This sentence... It's really strange. When Ian became a thief, didn't I feel ashamed looking at this log every day?"

Bai Xiaowen turned the page.

The log has been torn up a lot, and the remaining pages are records of looting a certain place on a certain day in a certain month. However, when looking at the records carefully, Bai Xiaowen found some doubts.

For example, on one of the pages, the date is October 16, 982 in the Kane calendar:

[Blackthorn Farm has a big problem. 】

[I raided Blackthorn Farm and detected a batch of plague grains. Return after burning the plague grain. No scatterers were found. 】

Another example is the third-to-last page, the date is January 7, 983 in the Kane calendar.

[The Shiraishi Silver Mine is suspect. 】

[Raided the Shiraishi Silver Mine, detected the miners, and found two guards infected with the Necro plague. 】

[I killed the guards, burned the silver mine house, and returned. 】

On the next page, there are only some scribbled scribbles, which are then heavily crossed out.

The crossed-out sentences are identified as follows: [I don't know if this makes any sense, but I just feel that I am getting farther and farther away from the Holy Light and the way of knighthood. 】

And at the back, Ian wrote another line forcefully:

[Archbishop Arlo is not at fault, I repent for my doubts. I will try to live up to the oath that I and the other six compatriots have made to investigate the source of the necromantic plague. 】

[The glory of Ebony will always be in my heart. 】

After flipping through the log, suddenly, a message about the rules of the spiritual world was passed on to the two of them at the same time.

"[Heroic side quest step 1: The truth of the plague] is open."

"Mission goal: Investigate the truth of the necromantic plague and find out the real spreader."

"Mission difficulty: B."

"Task duration: 10 days."

"Mission reward: unknown."

Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi's faces changed at the same time, a heroic mission! This is the first time I've encountered it.

Li Shuyi said at a loss: "What's going on? After reading the log, it made me even more confused. What is the necromantic plague? Is Ian a good person or a bad person?"

Bai Xiaowen sorted out his thoughts a little and said:

"My previous questions have basically been answered. In fact, Ian is a knight of the Holy See of Light. He did not defect, but took the initiative to disguise himself as a robber. In order to investigate the name of' The truth about the plague of necromancers."

Li Shuyi frowned: "Why does he pretend to be a robber?"

Bai Xiaowen speculated: "Maybe it is for the convenience of action. According to the records in the log and Anton's previous remarks, I can judge that the people and grains infected by the necromantic plague should have an incubation period for a period of time, and no problem can be seen. , but it can be detected in some way... and then to burn the grain and kill the infected, in the eyes of many people, it is incomprehensible to kill innocent humans."

Li Shuyi understood: "Ian, as a knight of the Holy Light Holy See, can't search casually, let alone kill civilians, and restrain him everywhere. And he disguised himself as a robber, so he has no such scruples, and will not damage the reputation of Holy Light Holy See ."

Bai Xiaowen nodded and said, "Yes, there are six other people who have changed their identities like him. They should be scattered throughout the northern border. Heifeng is their code name."

"Oops... I killed a good man by mistake." Li Shuyi was a little annoyed.

Bai Xiaowen smiled wryly and shook his head: "While fighting, who would know that he is a good person? For the reputation of the Holy Light Holy See, he will definitely not reveal his true identity. There is only one way to go to the dark."

"Then... do you want to accept this hero-level side quest?" Li Shuyi asked.

"If you accept the quest, you should be able to extract Ian's props from the treasure chest to detect the undead plague," Bai Xiaowen thought for a moment, "Come on, there's no reason not to do it until you reach the hero-level quest, not to mention this is a continuous Tasks are generally more rewarding.”

After both accepted the "Truth of the Plague" quest, they began to draw loot cards. Sure enough, as Bai Xiaowen had guessed, the first one was the [Plague Detector], which was a monocle with a faint glow on the frame.

[Plague detector: a special item, within 60 seconds after activation, you can see people or things infected by the plague of necromancy. After each use, it takes 10 minutes of prayer to recharge, and can only be recharged once a day. The current available times are 0/1. 】

"The limitation of this thing is a bit big. It can only be charged for 10 minutes for 60 seconds, and it can only be charged once a day... No wonder Ian has been busy for several months and has not made any progress." Bai Xiaowen shook his head and tried charging.

Prompt message: "You do not have the belief in Holy Light and cannot charge."

"I'm going, I have to have a dedicated interface..." Bai Xiaowen spit out, "Fortunately, I kidnapped an apprentice knight, otherwise this mission would not have been possible."

Next, there are two more chances to draw Ian's treasure chest. Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi decide to do it once each.

Li Shuyi drew first, and the card was turned around. It was a necklace, and the golden light of the high-end atmosphere slowly faded away.

[The decision of the adjudicator (binding after pickup)]

[Quality: Heroic (Gold)]

[Equipment Location: Neck]

[Equipment requirements: basic physique 15 points]

[Attribute: Constitution +3]

[Additional skills: Asylum: Call the Holy Light to form a shield of light around your body for 30 seconds. The amount of shield absorption is your Constitution*2. Cooldown time 24 hours. 】

[Durability: 40/40]

[Explanation: Every knight of the Ebon Blade Judge has an unparalleled firm belief. 】

"Superb necklace." Bai Xiaowen commented and gave Li Shuyi a thumbs up.

Gold equipment, some add attribute points, and some additional skills. Generally speaking, gold equipment with an additional attribute of around 5 points is considered to be the best.

Of course, although Li Shuyi's [Feathering Necklace] has no additional attributes, it has an extremely practical life-saving skill, which is also regarded as top-quality equipment.

And this necklace [Decision of the Adjudicator] not only adds 3 points of physique, but also has a practical shield skill! Although the cooldown time of the skill is as long as 24 hours, it can still be regarded as a super high-quality equipment, and its value is only higher than that of [Feather Necklace].

Li Shuyi smiled sweetly: "I have a necklace. I'll give you this necklace... Your dog collar is ugly, so change it quickly."

Bai Xiaowen smiled and put on the [Decision of the Adjudicator] necklace, and his physique reached 20 points, which is comparable to a level 3 tank-type profession, not to mention a skill with a shield value of 40 points.

In the last draw, Bai Xiaowen selected the card.

"You got a special item: Broken Oath."

Li Shuyi glanced at it and suddenly exclaimed, "Team building props!"

[Broken Oath: Allows the Awakened to establish a temporary team to explore the spiritual world together. The number of squads must not exceed (2), and the level of the Awakened must not exceed (6). After an exploration of the spiritual plane, the team is automatically disbanded. The item disappears after use. 】

"It's just a temporary team building item. It's not bad to be limited to level 6." Bai Xiaowen quickly judged the value of this item, "In consideration of maximizing revenue, it should save the need for two level 6 hero professional teams to form a team. 48,000 power points. Of course, under normal circumstances, there will not be such a big benefit, for both of us, using it at level 6 can save about 36,000 power points."

"It's already amazing, it's more than 30,000." Li Shuyi's smiling eyes narrowed.
