Chapter 457 World Boss
"Huh?" I was a little surprised: "Aren't you unwilling to tell me?"
"No," she winked at me, "When did I say I didn't want to tell you?"
The plot took a turn for the worse, and I felt a little uncomfortable. A few days ago, she had insisted on refusing to tell me, but now, she took the initiative to ask me if I wanted to know, and pretended to want to tell me.
There must be something wrong with this, either she made up a lie that was infinitely close to the truth to fool me, or she just ate the wrong thing.
But no matter what the possibility is, it doesn't look like something good will happen.
So, I decided to give up this opportunity to inquire.
Before I could speak, she spoke first: "What I have always wanted to ask you for is actually a plan to explore the tomb."
Explore the mausoleum
Sure enough, it doesn't sound like a good thing.
Isn't this the act of tomb robbing on the blue planet? I just don't know if tomb robbing is illegal in Zefeng Continent.
"Why explore the tomb?"
This is the question I want to figure out the most. Things always happen for a reason. Since she chose to explore the tomb, she must have a purpose. Before I figure out the reason why she explored the tomb, I will not agree easily. Even if it's a half-truth.
The masked female elf thought for a moment and said, "Because there are many rare treasures hidden in the tomb."
"Are you elves short of money?" I asked, "Do you want to dig graves to expand your financial resources?"
"It's not that the elves are short of money, it's that I'm short of money." She sighed: "Do you think it's really that easy to support an organization? You have to clear up relationships with various forces, consolidate your position in the assassin world, and be careful. There are villains behind the scenes, and all of this is indispensable without the support of money."
"Then it's really not easy for you." I spread my hands: "Why don't you choose to give up?"
Masked female elf:?
Facing her confused look, I explained: "Since it's so hard, you can give your position to others and choose to protect yourself wisely. In this way, you won't have so many complicated and heavy worries, and you can go wherever you want to play. Where can I go to play, rob a tomb, dig a mausoleum, get some treasures, and live a leisurely life, how nice it would be."
When she was listening to my blueprint and thinking about it, her eyes were unconsciously blank, but she calmed down after a while, with a touch of loss and helplessness in her eyes.
"it's out of the question."
Her voice was very weak, like a sickly girl recovering from a serious illness.
"Huh? How come it's impossible?" I didn't understand: "Is there someone else who is coercing you behind your back to continue taking this position?"
She did not speak, but lowered her head and kept kicking pebbles with her toes. After a while, she raised her head and squinted her eyes again. She smiled again: "Stop talking about this, let me tell you about the mausoleum." .”
Then, she told me one by one the reasons for exploring the mausoleum, the location of the mausoleum, and the information she currently has about the mausoleum.
According to her, the starting point for exploring the mausoleum was that the organization was squeezed out by the Second Young Master and other forces, which affected the economy. In order to maintain normal expenses in the past, they had to take desperate risks.
The tomb selected this time is the tomb of the first city lord of Airui City, the one who was called a hero by later generations.
As for why she wanted to steal the hero's tomb, the masked female elf answered me this way: "Since his descendants will not let us foreigners live a good life, I have no choice but to wrong this hero and sacrifice some treasure to compensate for my hurt heart. ”
This is really a high-sounding excuse.
I remember that Harold obtained my Odachi from a certain mausoleum, but I heard from him that obtaining this sword was purely a matter of luck. With their strength at the time, even if they were completely wiped out in the mausoleum, Not surprising either.
I once asked Harold how much risk he would need to take if he wanted to go deep into the tomb.
He answered me that the tomb where the Odachi was stolen had been stolen many times by previous people. Even so, his team finally escaped with the loss of five people. come out.
However, on the way to escape, he saw at least dozens of corpses that had turned into white and withered bones. This meant that at least dozens of people had been killed on this escape route alone.
We can see how dangerous it is to explore this tomb.
"How about it? I've told you everything I know. What's your answer?"
Her starry eyes stared at me, shining with expectation.
"You have to allow me to think about it," I said, "and even if I agree, it won't be possible in the near future."
"Why?"
"Because the world boss is about to come out," I said yearningly, "This is the first time I have been so active in preparing for the world boss!"
"You mean, world boss?" She frowned and said, "Oh, that's right, there's still more than a month left, and it's time to defeat the world boss. However, do you think you are really capable of defeating the world boss? Boss?"
"Huh? How do you say this?"
"Although the world boss is a festive event given by the God of Creation to all adventurers on the mainland, only one is spawned in each town, and its distribution location is different every year." Her eyes sparkled, and she analyzed one by one: "Perhaps You would think that every big town has a large number of small towns, and each small town has a world boss. This number is already enough, but have you ever thought that in every small town, there are How many adventurer guilds live in it? If we share the burden in this way, it will still be a situation where there are wolves but little meat. Maybe it will cause disputes. You know, there will be a lot of adventurers on World Boss Day every year. The guild was destroyed.”
To be honest, I really didn’t expect this. After all, in the past few years, I didn’t dare to touch the world boss either because I was not strong enough, or because there was already an Adventurer’s Guild that was hunting the world boss, so I didn’t dare to rush to grab it. In short , I have been wandering around the Zephyr Continent for more than five years, and I have never defeated a world boss in a real sense.
Now that I am strong enough now and have my own adventurer guild, I must try it once. Otherwise, I will have to wait until next year. God knows whether I will encounter some more when I fight world bosses next time. A head-scratching chore.
So I said: "I decided to defeat the world boss first. When the time comes, even if I grab one, I will grab one. Maybe I will explode some good equipment or something~"
The masked female elf laughed, and said, "You have a good idea. World bosses can explode good things, but they are never equipment."
"Huh? How can you be so sure?" I tilted my head and asked, "Have you done statistics?"
"There is no need for statistics on this matter~" she said with a smile: "You only need to go to the adventurer base and check the statistics table of the world boss explosions in previous years and you will know."
Uh, there is actually such a thing.
I was a little speechless, paused, and said, "Have you seen the statistics table? What kind of world bosses have been killed on it?"
