Dark Eldar

183 Greed OR Demand

Similar to all "escort missions," in a nearby village, the orc's mother was overjoyed! She had finally seen her child, who had been missing for nearly half a year. She insisted on giving him a monetary reward, but Loki and Benjamin politely declined.

Before returning, Loki and Benjamin secretly sponsored the child with 2 gold coins. They remained silent on the way, lost in thought.

"We can't accept this kind of money," Loki said first.

"Yeah, brother, what would we be if we took that kind of money? We'd be worse than pigs and dogs!" Benjamin added.

"Yes, they must be worse than pigs and dogs..."

By evening, Loki and Benjamin were tired from walking. They chose a "rest stop" along the way, a country inn.

The boss is an orc, and this map belongs to the orc region.

After paying, Loki and Benjamin went back to their room to rest early. Benjamin VI was exhausted today. He'd been frantically slaying monsters, rescuing children, and walking a long way. He felt incredibly fulfilled!

Loki was still pondering what was happening on "FB".

"That shouldn't be possible! Could that serpent monster really come out and kidnap children? Or did someone go in to make a deal?" Loki considered many possibilities, but he was exhausted. He squinted, still dressed, and fell asleep against the thick blanket. ... He was afraid that if he washed up again, he would be wide awake, and "insomnia" was bad for his health. ("Health preservation" is an auxiliary skill; in this other world, elders have valued "auxiliary skills" since ancient times, and there are many ancient texts on this subject. Especially Elder Sun Yun's "Eastern Health Preservation"! It's practically a comprehensive "life-extending" manual! Even for non-heroic figures, ordinary people who learned Sun Yun's health preservation methods could easily live decades longer.)

While Loki didn't entirely approve of Elder Sun Yun's offensive magic, he was deeply impressed by Elder Sun Yun's "Treasured Ancient Relics" (a unique course in this "otherworldly" setting). It was an invaluable collection of "experience," a record of all sorts of interesting knowledge that money couldn't buy. The food section, for example, mentioned that potatoes are good for the stomach and that it's best to heat a hamburger for a minute before eating it—very practical indeed!

"Can I defeat Elder Sun Yun now?" Loki woke up; he had been feeling uneasy lately.

Inappropriate thoughts surfaced in his mind. (Suspected "darkening")

"Damn it!? Why would I fight him? The kind Elder Sun Yun is my mentor!" Loki slapped his forehead; he really didn't want to overthink things anymore. But sometimes, strange and bizarre "thoughts" would come to him.

Next door, Benjamin was fast asleep. Unlike Loki, he didn't "daydream." At most, Benjamin would think of one person, one girl? The mischievous "Lorna"...

In the main city of Leiyin, Rona is level 45. Taking advantage of Leiyin's location, she found it particularly easy to find a party in the city's "Dungeon FB" (dungeons). She kept farming "Lava Cavern" (level 30) and finally got her hands on the "Shadow Blade Shoulderpads" (level 45)! Her first piece of the Shadow Blade set!

If you could only read one fantasy novel in your lifetime, it would probably be "Eldar".

Other heroes who teamed up with Rona were incredibly envious! Some even sent her "love" signals, but Rona blocked them all. In her heart, she was always thinking of "Ben"! "I hope to meet him! At my level 45, I think I should be about the same as him! Oh, right! That guy selling equipment, 'Jack' (Loki's trading pseudonym), is pretty good too! It's a pity he's not as handsome and sunny as 'Ben'; 'Jack' gives off a deep, unsettling, and cold feeling!" "(The quirky and clever Rona's judgment is fairly accurate; Loki is almost "corrupted"... When a player's level or combat power reaches a certain point, the "dark forces" will actively extend an "olive branch" to a certain outstanding "hero"! Although "darkness" is invisible and intangible in this other world, and doesn't even have an organization!; Note: The "Dark Legion" is only a name that sounds similar. Their eight generals are nothing in front of a true dark mage... The "Dark Eldar" can be considered the lowest "form" of a "dark mage"... The elemental creatures may name themselves the "Dark Legion" because of "order"! It's a "gimmick," an exaggeration for the sake of the plot, to please the players!)"

In the dungeon, Rona fanned her face with her hands; she was unbearably hot! She had just finished two runs of "Lava Crypt" (G-group). This dungeon has 50 floors, extending downwards. Each floor is inhabited by a guardian boss. You can level from level 18 to 50, and the main city has a clear advantage. It's also a benefit for humans! ("Fast-paced mode"; avoids running errands and traversing the map)

There were simply too many players entering the 5-person "FB" (Fake Enemy) instance. This resulted in extremely low drop rates and a significant reduction in the amount of money dropped. Each monster only yielded around 20 silver coins. Rona entered not only to level up quickly but also to farm money. Every time a green item dropped, she blindly clicked "need"! Since Rona was a woman and the team leader (the 5-person "FB" guide), the other warriors and assassins didn't dare say anything.

"Hey MM, how about clicking Greed? We can all roll!" A human who looked like a "rich kid" (level 39, brand new gear) said when we reached the seventh floor. Judging from his "gear" (fashion), this guy was definitely a rich kid, or at least a descendant of nobility.

"If you're so capable, don't come in. Fight it yourself! Whether you choose what you need or what you're greedy for is your own business. And I do have needs. Unlike you. But don't worry! If a dagger or leather armor drops, I definitely won't take it. Those are your weapons. I already have better purple weapons!" Rona explained irritably.

"Hmph! What's so great about it? It's just a 'Shadow Blade Shoulderpads'! I'll buy one later!" the rich second-generation player said nonchalantly.

"Let me tell you the truth! It's not sold at the auction house! You probably don't even know where it drops, right? It's not like having money guarantees anything!" Rona said sternly, her face flushed. She wouldn't allow anyone to look down on her in the slightest. ... (Regarding the rules of "ROLL": Generally, there are no hard and fast rules; it doesn't have to be "Greedy" or "Need." For example, if you're short on money, you can use "Need" on an eco-friendly item. It could also be because you want to dismantle the item for an alt.)
