Players’ NPC daddy

But Lucy quickly patted Depp's back and asked Depp to put her down. Then she pinched the hem of her skirt and walked shyly to Zero, whom she was most afraid of, and took out a stack of papers.

"This is for you. Thank you for taking care of me these days."

Those weren't vouchers, but hand-cut and hand-painted concert tickets. With these tickets, one could permanently attend any of Lucy's concerts, and even invite her to perform at Azazel.

They were basically staring at Lucy the whole time, so Lucy must have been making this little thank you gesture in the night, under the covers.

Of course, Lucy didn't ask Zero to pass it on to others, but personally gave one to each of the ten seats.

Each one is different, with a crayon drawing of each gift recipient. The drawings are a bit abstract, but each one has its own distinct character: Zero, for example, is a snarling monster, Huo Luo is a furry lion, and there's a green goblin.

"My drawing is not very good, please don't mind." Lucy shyly tapped her index fingers together, "This is my first time drawing too."

"Ah, I'm dead." The ten members covered their chests one by one, and they almost hallucinated the angel wings behind Lucy.

You know, red-named players of their level are only slightly more favorably regarded by NPCs than bad-mannered players.

Suddenly, the audience gathered around Depp and started applauding.

"Considering your significant contributions to Azazel, we acknowledge that you will always be a member of Azazel. Welcome back."

"congratulations."

"congratulations."

Depp realized that they might not be able to leave.

……

The showdown between the Fairy Alliance and the Freemasons ended with the Fairy Alliance narrowly winning.

The number of players in the [Freemasonry] was too large, which once caused a crushing situation, but the [Fairy Alliance] opened the teleportation tower and released countless unknown monsters.

Among them, there was a monster with tens of thousands of arms, but its name was "Three-Handed Shura" and it was killing everyone.

The [Fairy Alliance] took the opportunity to counterattack, and then encountered the real boss guarding the level - the terrifying crazy cat orc Greenlan.

The sense of liberation brought by the exclusive mode made this guy lose control. He couldn't distinguish between friend and foe, and wandered around the Freemasonry's guild base like some kind of terrifying, randomly refreshed monster.

Who can understand the fear of walking peacefully and suddenly hearing a series of screams and a strange woman's shrill laughter from the end of the aisle, and finally looking up suddenly to find a ferocious cat orc staring at you from the ceiling.

A good work suitable for all ages was forcibly turned into a horror game.

A good guild war turned into a hunt for terrifying cat orcs. In the end, it took more than a dozen of them to barely subdue Greenland. Finally, the Ripper stabbed Greenland in the butt to wake up the crazy woman.

The remaining guild wars will no longer be as exciting as the showdown between the [Fairy Alliance] and the [Freemasonry]. It is worth mentioning that the winner of this battle is likely to be [Azazel] again.

Because I don't know where they found a singer.

But these are all later stories, and Blazer has no time to care about them.

It seemed that the old man who had been sitting there selling fruits since he was born suddenly showed his unfathomable side.

The old hand easily suppressed Blaze, and a cold wind seemed to whistle out of his empty right eye.

"Who are you, Odin?"

Blaze subconsciously called out the old man's name, because this old man was almost the oldest person in Balkan City, so out of respect, no one would ever call out the old man's name, and basically called him boss or old man.

"Just a disabled old man." Odin loosened his hand and disappeared in the fallen leaves blown by the wind.

The one-eyed old man seemed to have never appeared, leaving no trace of his existence, but the warning he left behind made Blaze break out in cold sweat and... dissatisfied.

Isn't the so-called warning out of concern? Just put it more simply. How can a warning be told in riddles? We've been friends for so many years!

"Really!"

Blazer sighed and pressed his helmet with a headache. Now he really had too many debts to bear. If those monsters came to him together, they would probably have to fight each other first before they could fight him.

Thinking about it, there were already two guys like the final boss fighting behind him.

"Ugh--"

"What's wrong, Blaze?"

Marika's concerned voice came from behind. Obviously, Blaze's sighing appearance made them worried.

"I'm wondering whether I should go find someone's teacher or the fourth daughter of the old man in the fruit shop."

Theresa fought One-Eye for him, and the last message she left behind was the quest "Find a Teacher." Considering the circumstances, it's likely that Theresa herself wasn't confident she could defeat One-Eye, so she told him how to become stronger.

Odin appeared because he encountered the One-Eye. Although he didn't know his identity, he gave him hints to help him and told him how to defeat the One-Eye.

"Let's go find that teacher!"

Marika and Audrey said in unison, while Herbie looked conflicted and said after thinking for a moment.

"We should go find that fourth daughter, otherwise the money will be wasted."

Chapter 292 Even the warning has to be told in riddles

Blaze had promised Herbie that he wouldn't hide anything, so he told the three people in front of him everything.

The one-eyed god, the survivors of the Age of Gods, and the method to defeat the gods.

Perhaps these big things will make them feel burdened and stressed, but Blazer does not want to be a "dictator" and treat things that are obviously closely related to the world as his own private affairs.

Blaze came to the crossroads that determined his fate, and in the end he chose to look for the teacher that Theresa mentioned.

This is the conclusion Blazer came to after careful consideration.

Odin must have known about the One-Eye's attack through some means and told him how to defeat him. Theresa confronted the One-Eye directly, and most importantly, the term "second generation" suggests that this person, who has existed since the Age of Gods, must have at least known about the "first generation."

So there is no reason why Theresa doesn't know what Odin said about how to defeat the One-Eye.

In this situation, Theresa still asked him to find his teacher, which means that Theresa thought the method to defeat One-Eye was probably no longer effective.

This is also natural. If you know that there is something that can defeat you, why should you allow that thing to exist?

Blaze's idea had a basis: the Curse of the One-Eye. Dwarves possessed the most powerful forging techniques in the world, and legend had it that the Hunting Titan was forged by dwarves.

Being able to create weapons of the level of [Hunting Giant God], perhaps they could also create even more terrifying weapons to kill gods. Therefore, the dwarf was robbed of his wisdom by the One-Eye and placed in a fruit. And once someone possessed the highest-level forger capable of creating weapons to kill gods, the One-Eye would immediately appear.

You might be attacked by the One-Eye on your way to find the [Golden Bough of Life].

In fact, when it comes down to it, Blaze just feels uneasy about the method of "as long as you get it, you can win", and it is more reliable to improve his own combat effectiveness.

And compared to Odin's "120-gold journey" puzzle, Theresa's badge is more tangible. At least it bears the teacher's name, Chiron, which is a clear clue.

The most important thing is that Blaze always feels that he doesn't need to deliberately solve the puzzle left by Odin, because Odin will definitely come to him because of his constant appearance.

"A trip worth 120 gold coins?" Herbie muttered a riddle, but his expression soon returned to normal and he began to ask about the business.

"Will the Holy Cross Church lift the ban on the teleportation tower and the [Hermes's Traveling Hat]?"

"I don't know. Sorry, I don't have much time to ask this question."

"Come on, our mundane affairs are nothing compared to your big thing of saving the world." Herbie rolled his eyes and slapped Blaze's arm in annoyance.

Blaze could only helplessly endure this painless attack. The situation was changing, and he really didn't have many opportunities to ask Theresa if she was willing to lift the ban on [Hermes' Traveling Cap].

"The identity of Theresa is dead, so I think the [Hermes's Traveling Hat] should consult with the [Freemasons]. Although they don't have a cardinal among them, their position is very important."

"The lives of the people of the Holy Cross have also been affected, and the foreigners will take it as their mission to help them. Isn't this just right?"

"Oh~ makes sense. If Bishop Theresa can drive strangers by issuing war missions, then we [Hermes' Traveling Hat] can also issue rescue missions and let strangers become middlemen." Hebi touched her chin and walked away muttering to herself, followed by a female goblin servant.

Obviously, ever since Herbie rode Blaze, Herbie's status in the goblin village has skyrocketed, and he has become the village chief.

Blaze was quite satisfied with this matter. In this way, Hebi would treat the goblin village as his own territory and manage and cultivate it seriously. The goblin village would soon become a recognized nation.

Among those 100 million wishes, hundreds of thousands of wishes of strangers who want to become the ones to encounter the goblin and the female knight can be fulfilled.

"..."

After Herbie left, Blaze, Marika, and Audrey fell into a strange triangle of silence.

Blaze wasn't exactly a talkative person; he was able to chat because he was well-informed. Don't expect a young man who'd lived his entire life in Balkan City and only had one apple to understand much. Furthermore, whenever he started talking, he'd always broach topics like the crisis of the gods and the fall of the Beast King, which were far too heavy.

Marika is more taciturn. She and Blaze mostly communicate through eye contact, and she simply gives orders to her subordinates, so she doesn't chat.

Audrey, let alone someone who looked cool and elegant, was the perfect choice. Conversations with Marika were mostly official, as the two territories were relatively close.

So the three of them just stood there, Marika looked at Blaze, Audrey looked at Marika and then at Blaze, and cold sweat gradually appeared on Blaze's forehead, and he prayed in his heart that the chicken would come back quickly.

Just then, a goblin came over and knelt on the ground with great respect.

"Great Lion, the Lion God has something to say to you."

"I'll be there right away!" Blaze took a step forward and wanted to leave as if he had been pardoned, but after taking two steps forward, he felt that it was not a good idea to leave like this.

He turned around and, as expected, Audrey and Marika were both looking at him. The two noble women showed lost expressions because he was so impatient to leave.

But after Blaze turned around, Audrey tilted her head and shrugged her nose, while Marika smiled gently and waved her hand.

"Well, I wonder if I'll have the honor of inviting you all on a trip together in the future?"

Blazer said this almost with gritted teeth. No matter how slow he was, he knew that it was not a good idea to invite two women to travel separately.

But he couldn't think of any other solution. It was better than just walking away like this.

……

"And then you were rejected by two people with a smile, right?" The old lion looked at Blaze squatting in the corner with an expression that seemed to see through everything.

"They said they were extremely busy and didn't have time." Blaze hugged his knees, feeling frustrated for the second time.

"Am I being disliked?"

……

"Why didn't you agree?" Audrey turned her head and looked at Marika.

After Blaze left in a daze, the atmosphere between Audrey and Marika became harmonious.

"What about you?" Marika also turned her head and asked the same question.

So the two of them smiled at each other, and they had the same answer.

Because they knew that if they really traveled with Blaze, Blaze would always be mindful of the responsibilities of queen and lord that they were supposed to shoulder.

They don't want to burden the teenager.

So instead of letting the young man keep looking around and worrying, it is better to be a listener. Listening to the young man excitedly talk about what he saw and heard during the trip is also a special kind of mood.

And the responsibilities they shoulder are related to whether the young people's travel can become simple and wonderful.

Come on, as a queen, as a lord, make this world a better place.

Chapter 293: Building walls is guilty

Blaze struggled for a long time, and finally realized that Marika and Audrey were really busy.

Audrey is the Queen of Arcadia and is responsible for all the residents of Arcadia. As a brand new nation, the Arcadians need a lot of hard work from Queen Audrey if they want to integrate into the world.

Marika was even more of a problem. Fast had been without a lord for years, leaving many things stagnant. Even strangers often complained that the entire Fast territory seemed to have stood still, with no change at all.

Thinking about it this way, it would be impolite to invite these two busy people to travel.

"Are you feeling better?" The old lion had been waiting patiently by the side until Blaze stood up before he spoke slowly.

"Do you want to remind me about the one-eyed god too?" Blaze adjusted his mood and sat opposite the old lion.

Aside from the Titans, a unique entity that transformed into a god, there were few gods in this world who directly touched the earth. Even in the temples of Arcadia, the Moon God only appeared as moonlight.

This time, the One-Eye not only landed on the ground, but also made a powerful move, so it was not surprising that other high-level beings could feel the appearance of the One-Eye.

"It's such a huge movement, it's impossible not to know about it."

The old lion sighed, and sat next to Blaze, imitating Blaze's posture. He put his paw on Blaze's shoulder and spoke helplessly in the tone of an older brother.

"You have bad luck."

"Why don't you tell me exactly how bad you are? Like you couldn't win even in your prime." Blaze rolled his eyes, speechless at the old lion's anthropomorphic action.

The old lion did not shamelessly boast about how invincible he was when he was young. Instead, after serious consideration, he explained the existence of the first type of gods.

Except for those like the Titans, who completed incredible trials, climbed all the way from the depths of the vertical hell to the top world, and completed their own redemption and path to godhood, basically all gods are born extremely powerful.

If we talk about how powerful they are, it's that they can't touch the ground, and can only interfere with reality in the way they exist in history. The result of randomly descending to the ground is a disaster like the Titans.

It is not known whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, but the gods who were supposed to be independent and free have become chaotic and complicated because the world itself has the characteristics of rotation and combination. The gods and the stories of the gods' existence have also become chaotic and complicated because of the rotation of the world.

The gods thus became more powerful, but they also became subject to many constraints, requiring certain conditions to be fulfilled before they could descend. For example, Bernerron, as a moon priest, could summon the moon god through the moon-calling ritual.
