How to make money, of course, is to rely on one's own magic.
Magic requires a wand. Link currently has a crescent wand and a flintstone wand. The former is a masterwork, while the latter is a bit bulky and has a distinct dark elf style. Both are not well exposed.
Link deliberated and decided to use the Crescent Wand. Of course, before using it, he had to put a camouflage on the outside of this wand...
After thinking about it, Link spent 1 free point to exchange for a new magic.
replacement surgery
Level 0 Magic
Function: Low-level enchantment, on the premise of not changing the physical shape, replace one substance with another.
After obtaining the magic, Link first wrapped the crescent wand with layers of linen to cover up the original appearance of the wand, then found some oak debris, and put the crescent wand wrapped in thick linen on the oak Go up, then take out the flint stone staff, and start to release the displacement technique.
A translucent ball of light with layers of ripples appeared on the flint staff, and Link pointed to the crescent wand: "Replacement!"
When the ball of light landed on the wand, the brown linen on the surface of the wand changed slightly, revealing some woody textures, but this was not enough. A replacement technique could not completely replace the linen with oak.
"Replacement!"
"Replacement!"
"Replacement!"
…
After releasing five replacement spells in a row, the linen cloth outside the Crescent Wand became oak wood. This oak wood is still porous and breathable, and it will not affect the casting of spells at all.
The surface was a bit rough, Link carefully ground it with fine sand, and immediately, the gorgeous crescent wand became an ordinary-looking 'wooden stick'.
Well, like this, you can take it out and use it.
After refitting the wand, Link felt a little hungry again, so he went to the hotel lobby. As usual, he spent five coppers on a long loaf of semolina bread. After thinking about it, he spent another ten coppers on a glass of ale .
I haven't changed the taste for more than half a month, and the mouth almost fades out of the bird. Drink a glass of wine to adjust the taste.
"Hey, Link, how did you become rich today?" the hotel clerk joked, while taking a full glass of ale and handing it to Link.
There was also a voice from the other side: "Link, you are going to be thin like a bamboo pole, you can't go on like this."
It's Tom the alcoholic. Whenever this guy has some money in his pocket, he will come over to drink as soon as possible, and when he gets drunk, he will go home and beat his wife. Because of this, his wife quarreled with him for several years, and finally ran away with others, but This guy is still stubborn, wine is his true love!
"Haha, I mean Link, what are you doing in the attic all day long? Tell us about it?" another regular customer laughed.
After staying here for more than half a month, most of the people in the hotel knew Link. In fact, the entire River Valley Town heard that a strange person had come to the hotel in the town.
To these ridicules, Link smiled, and said truthfully: "I am a magician, and I am learning magic during this time."
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, there was a burst of laughter in the hall.
Alcoholic Tom said drunkenly: "Haha, if you are a magician, I will be a great sage."
Everyone else laughed too, although Link had repeated the words several times, but no one believed him.
Hegu Town is close to the East Valley Higher Magic Academy. From time to time, you can see magicians from the academy. In the eyes of the townspeople, magicians are a group of people who are well-dressed and spend a lot of money. They even hold something called a magic wand in their hands. , They also appear very energetic, and the whole person seems to be shrouded in a mysterious light.
As for Link, who was wearing a rough linen robe (he sold his gray robe for money), was thin and had a sallow face, and had never seen him use any magic, so no one believed him.
Link didn't make any excuses either. To him, it doesn't matter what these townspeople think of him. As long as it doesn't hinder his life, he doesn't care even if these townspeople treat him as a beggar.
He has already stood at a higher level, and the eagle will not pay attention to the chicken's opinion, so Link doesn't even have the time to explain.
Smiling, he took his own food to the corner. Link took a bite of coarse wheat bread and drank a sip of ale to moisten his throat. From the beginning to the end, his expression was very calm.
The people in the hall talked a few words about him, and seeing that he didn't respond, they were all bored, so they muttered a few times and started chatting about the family affairs in the town.
At this moment, heavy and rhythmic footsteps came from the door, and then the light in the hall dimmed slightly. This change made all the guests in the hall quiet, and all turned their heads to look at the door.
Link also looked over.
At the entrance of the hall, a burly man with a height of nearly two meters and arms thicker than Link's thigh came in. The burly man had disheveled hair, a rough face, a long beard, and was wearing gray leather armor. Some armor pieces were sewn on the chest and under the ribs, and a war hammer was carried on the shoulder. The toy is estimated to weigh seventy to eighty kilograms, and more than that, there is a thick shield on his back, the shield is at least five centimeters thick, and it is also made of pure iron. This thing is not light.
Link is sure that if he was hit lightly by this thing, he would definitely die on the spot.
This strong man walked in like a tank, and the wooden floor of the hotel creaked with every step he stepped on. After he entered, everyone saw that there were two people behind him.
An archer, about 30 years old, with a strong figure and a leather armor. The last one is a woman, about 27 or 28 years old. She has fiery red hair and is wearing a tight leather armor. She has an extremely hot figure. She should be convex or concave. She is unambiguous at all and can easily explode a man hormones!
Everyone in the hall was stunned.
Alcoholic Tom is the most obscene. Ever since this woman appeared, his eyes have never left the woman's lower thirds, and the corners of his mouth are drooling without knowing it.
This alcoholic hasn't touched a woman for several years, and he can see double eyelids even when he sees a sow, let alone such a hot girl.
The woman had a one-handed sword tied to her back, she should be a swordsman, she was very keen, and could easily feel Tom's obscene gaze, and her dark blue eyes stared fiercely at him.
Alcoholic Tom yelled in horror, and dropped the wine glass in his hand to the ground, he didn't dare to look at it.
The people in the hotel were also taken aback and didn't dare to look any further.
This scene made Link's heart move: "These three people are all masters, and this woman has a strong murderous aura, obviously she has killed many people. But the temperament of these three people is not dark and evil, they should travel around to pick up tasks to make money Mercenary."
Seeing that everyone in the hotel lobby was shocked, the three asked for some food, and then started discussing like no one else was there.
They were very loud, and they were not afraid of being heard at all, so Link heard what they were saying.
"It's impossible to fight, it's impossible to fight at all. Witt is a coward. He hides in the cave all day long. The three of us go in. It's too dangerous. The terrain in the cave is narrow, and my bow is not very good." The archer took a bite of the delicious pastrami, shook his head, a little frustrated.
"Hey, don't be discouraged. It's a bit dangerous, but the bounty is high. We've traveled hundreds of miles. Are we going to give up after just looking at it?" The woman spoke, scolded the archer, and then looked at the archer. Strong man: "Yake, what do you say?"
The strong man has a rough face, but his personality looks very gentle. He gently cut off a bite of meat and put it in his mouth, chewing slowly. Hearing what the woman said, he thought for a while: "We need to find help. Werther is a third-level assassin. He has mastered the fighting spirit, and now he is so cautious, it is really difficult to deal with."
"Helper?" The archer sneered, "Who is there in Hegu Town? Unless you can find a magician at East Valley Academy of Magic."
The red-haired woman immediately yelled: "Gridan, you are crazy! We can afford a magician? Even if we give him all the commission, he might not be able to see him, let alone go with us." Take a risk, they are very precious."
"I was just joking." Archer Gridan curled his lips and ate his food.
After that, the three of them said a few more words, all about the mission, and the name of the mission target was Werther, but after discussing for a long time, they couldn't come up with any good solution.
Link was on the sidelines, but he was fascinated by it. There was no other reason, because he remembered the name Werther.
Werther, the leader of the Dark Brotherhood, his subordinates are all hooligans, robbers, and gangsters. These people have a characteristic, that is, they like to cover their faces with blood-red cloth scarves.
These were the people who besieged Ailette in the forest.
At this point in time, the Dark Brotherhood is raging in the west of the Gwent Forest, and it is the largest underground force in the west of the forest, and Werther is the king hidden in the darkness. In the western region of Gwent Forest, Werther's words are much more effective than the mayor of River Valley Town. Whoever he kills will not survive the next morning.
Of course, like all gangsters, Werther can hold up such a big scene in the area near the hot spring city of the capital, and there must be an umbrella in the capital.
Link remembers very clearly that this protective umbrella goes back layer by layer, and finally reaches the Iron Duke... It's not that the Iron Duke condoned Werther to do bad things, but that he also enjoyed part of the money Werther paid. Open one eye and close one eye.
Naturally, Werther was even more unscrupulous.
Recalling these materials, Link suddenly remembered a word called 'Werther's Treasure'.
As the leader of an illegal underground organization, Werther has a natural sense of insecurity. His money will never be stored in places like Norton Kingdom’s bank, but carefully hidden. This guy is not hiding in one place, but Like squirrels, there are piles in the east and west, buried everywhere in the forest.
In the previous game, if the player is lucky enough, there is a chance to pick up the treasure map of "Werther's Treasure" when killing Werther. Link has picked up one. He searched all the way, and finally I found more than 100 gold coins. At that time, one gold coin was equivalent to 100 yuan in the game, which was really a big profit.
In the previous game, the locations of the treasures indicated by these treasure maps were random. According to statistics on the forum, this guy Witt bought at least 20 places with his own money.
If more than 100 gold coins can be found in one place, then the sum of the money in more than 20 places might be able to cover the tuition fees of the School of Magic in one fell swoop!
Therefore, when Link heard the name Werther, his heart moved.
He is now short of money to a certain extent. He listened to the three mercenaries chatting for a long time, and his mind was already moved. Almost at the same time, news appeared in Link's vision.
Trigger the bounty task: Assassination
Task content: Kill Wirt, the leader of the Dark Brotherhood!
Mission Reward: 10 Freedom Points.
Well, in this way, he will definitely not be able to take on this task.
Waiting patiently for the three mercenaries to eat and drink, when they left the hotel, Link immediately got up and chased them out.
Once outside the hotel, Link quickened his pace and followed, shouting, "Hey, wait, do you need help?"
