Just before the little girl disappeared this round, Mo Xiaoyao walked up to her, and asked very naturally: "Are you a child of the witch's family? She asked me to find you." Talking to strangers, Mo Xiaoyao Xiao Yao couldn't open her mouth, and couldn't raise her spirits, but she didn't have any burden to talk to someone who looked like a non-human being.
For Mo Xiaoyao, everything in this world is closer than strangers of the same kind, no matter if it is a kitten or a puppy or a rabbit or a snake, even if she is talking to a doll, she can talk for a long time, but to strangers The same kind, but it is both vigilant and uninterested.
The little girl with twin ponytails raised her head, her face was made up of a black mist, and she couldn't tell what she looked like, and then she heard her sobbing softly: "I made mother's silver ring lost."
Mo Xiaoyao didn't speak, and stood in front of the girl with her head down. She didn't have a silver ring or anything.
Seeing that she didn't answer, the little girl raised her voice slightly: "My kind sister, can you help me find the silver ring? Otherwise, my mother will definitely kill me."
"Where did you leave it?" Mo Xiaoyao asked.
The little girl pointed to the northeast direction: "I lost it when I went to see the fire show. Someone must have picked it up and put it on the stall for sale. That guy loves to pick up things that are dropped on the ground."
"Oh." Mo Xiaoyao replied indifferently, turned around and left. When she changed stalls with Jiang Yan, she did see a stall selling miscellaneous gadgets, but the items on it were too expensive, and everything was at least It starts at 20 tokens. They don't have that much money, so even if they suspect that there are good things in it, they give up and don't buy it.
Thinking about it now, the things on it are probably the quest items of various branches. Although she has only triggered this one so far, it is definitely not the only one in the huge circus. If I really bought it at that time, I am afraid it will be a loss original capital.
Even now, Mo Xiaoyao didn't plan to buy a silver ring for the little girl. Anyway, the total amount of tokens on her body is only more than 20, and it's not enough to blame her. There is no penalty for failure of this branch task, and if it is not completed, it will not be completed. It is just a little regretful.
Seeing that Mo Xiaoyao turned around and left, the girl stopped crying abruptly, and then immediately magnified it many times, crying so loudly that it was earth-shattering, and she was still yelling things like "I'm so scared, my mother will kill me".
Mo Xiaoyao remained unmoved, and just killed him, what has it to do with her.
The girl covered her eyes with her fingers and opened a slit. Seeing Mo Xiaoyao walking farther and farther, she really stopped crying this time. She stomped her feet and ran after her. She didn't dare to touch her, but stopped her directly. in front of.
"Why don't you have sympathy?" The girl put her hands on her hips and looked up at Mo Xiaoyao. The black mist that made up her face was so angry that it looked like a small whirlwind had grown on her neck. Same.
Mo Xiaoyao lowered his eyelids, glanced at her, and said lightly: "My sympathy is scumbag."
"You!" The girl was annoyed, she never expected the other party to answer like this, you you you you you for a long time, and finally choked out a sentence, "If I don't go home, you won't be able to complete your mother's task, don't you worry?"
Mo Xiaoyao still had the same expressionless expression: "What is there to worry about? Anyway, there is no punishment—besides, if you don't say you lost the ring, will your mother kill you? Wouldn't it be nice not to take you back? ?”
The little girl has been an NPC for so many years, and it may be the first time she meets someone like Mo Xiaoyao: "My mother rewards divination cards, I want to play with good things that she won't even touch! You don't want it?"
Mo Xiaoyao tilted his head: "I want it, but if I can't get it, let it go."
The tornado on the little girl's face spun around a few times, and then slowly calmed down and returned to black mist: "Without the ring, I will definitely be killed by my mother when I go back. How about this, you accompany me back and help me kill my mother." , when the time comes, I will be able to inherit her divination hut, I am not as stingy as my mother, and I will give you three prizes then."
After the little girl's voice fell, a few lines of words popped up in front of Mo Xiaoyao's eyes, which proved that this was indeed another side mission.
Branch line: The commission of the doll
Content: Kill the witch.
Reward: Witch's divination card x1/set, doll's glass marble x1/box, doll's old blanket x1
Failure Penalty: Doll's Hatred
Whether to accept
Mo Xiaoyao thought about it for a while and chose to accept it. After that, the girl became happy again. Although she was expressionless, she jumped up and down, and her two ponytails also bobbed up and down.
"I know you're a smart man, come on, come back with me to my mother."
Mo Xiaoyao looked up at the sky.
19:35:15
There is still more than 1 hour before the agreed time, which is enough.
Following the bouncing girl, Mo Xiaoyao walked towards the witch's divination hut. Although she accepted the task, she didn't think about actually killing the witch. First, she didn't know how strong the other party was. It's because she has no cards.
And the witch always gives her an unfathomable feeling, not to mention that her roulette game can directly lower the difficulty of Leap of Faith, just say that those people fly to her after turning into tarot cards, which is enough to make people I'm afraid.
Mo Xiaoyao wants to fight her only when she is crazy. She doesn't want to become a tarot card and stay in this ghost dungeon for the rest of her life.
But if she doesn't accept this side mission, this girl named Wawa will definitely not go back with Mo Xiaoyao, and she has no money to buy mission items, so she wanted to give up, but after this mission came out, she suddenly wanted to take risks .
Opportunities and dangers have always coexisted, and you want to get benefits, but you don't want to take risks. In this kind of dungeon, it is tantamount to nonsense. Mo Xiaoyao thinks she is still sober, and she doesn't mind trying more if she is sure.
To put it bluntly, the punishment of "Doll's Hatred" is not painful, and as a "distinguished guest" who has already got tickets for the closing performance, she can bear it completely.
It didn't take long to walk back to the witch's divination hut. The road in the forest was still so dark. This time, the Tarot cards hanging from the tree did not cause trouble. Mo Xiaoyao had sharp eyes and saw a few familiar cards, so he didn't know Is it a new addition, or an existing one.
The witch was still sitting behind the table, staring at the crystal ball on her table, as if it contained the most interesting things in the world. At first, Mo Xiaoyao thought she was looking for a child with a crystal ball, but now it seems that this may not be the case.
"I brought your child back to you." Mo Xiaoyao pulled out the girl who was hiding behind him at the door of the tent, and pushed it in front of the witch, "Have a look?"
The witch raised her head from the crystal ball, pointed at the girl with her withered fingers, and said hoarsely, "Idiot! I was found! Where is my ring?"
The girl was obviously afraid of witches, she stood in front of the table with her neck curled up, but she pretended to be fierce and indifferent when she heard the question: "Who asked you to send her a mission to find me, the ring has long been lost, It’s not just a matter of a day or two.”
The witch waved her hand, and the crystal ball floated to the shelf at the back. Then she hooked her fingers at the girl, pulling her in front of her like pulling an invisible thread.
"Useless things, you can't do a little thing well, so what's the use of keeping you."
The girl was dragged involuntarily, but she turned her head 180 degrees and looked back at Mo Xiaoyao, shouting, "What are you still doing!"
Mo Xiaoyao stepped forward blankly.
The witch stopped her movements immediately, and her eyes under the hood were fixed on Mo Xiaoyao, but a fake smile appeared on the corner of her lips: "Did this little girl tell you something?"
Mo Xiaoyao didn't answer the question: "I found her, and you have admitted that she is your child. How about the reward?"
The witch narrowed her eyes and looked at Mo Xiaoyao for a while. She didn't have the guts to disobey the rules of the system. She flicked the dry finger of her other free hand reluctantly, and a small wooden box floated in front of Mo Xiaoyao from the shelf behind. .
"Take it, the promised reward."
Mo Xiaoyao was also polite, and directly took the small wooden box into his hand, and slid up the thin baffle, revealing a stack of cards inside.
Witch's Divination Card (Excellent)
Introduction: Draw a divination card to see today's luck.
How to use: Do what the card asks, or don't do those.
Function: Meet the requirements of the card, and get the luck reward written on the card.
Remarks: Take one to try your luck~
After confirming that the reward was correct, Mo Xiaoyao took it back into his carry-on bag, and then saw the side mission pop up in front of him again, but this time the words [Completed] were added after it.
"You've got the reward too, now it's time to tell me about this child—did she tell you something?"
Mo Xiaoyao looked up at the captured girl, and then at the witch, feeling that she was too eager. With a move in her heart, she shook her head: "She didn't say anything. The task is completed, so I'll go first."
The girl was taken aback for a moment, and then she yelled, "You lied to me!"
Mo Xiaoyao smiled at her: "How did I lie to you? What did you tell me?" The side mission said "kill the witch" instead of "assisting the doll to kill the witch", four words short, The meaning is much different.
The witch turned her head to look at the girl, and tightened her fingers, and Mo Xiaoyao felt that the black shadow on the girl's whole body was getting dimmer.
The girl didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of the witch, and turned her head to plead with her: "Good mother, I am obedient, please let me go, this person has obviously accepted the task."
Mo Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows. Sure enough, this side mission was a trap. The witch never hid her ability from the very beginning. Later, on the high platform, I saw her mystery with my own eyes. Obviously, this is not a one-star dungeon that should be done. The difficulty of the BOSS defeated by the player.
All the signs indicated that it was very difficult to kill the witch. She did not take the initiative to attack the player because of the rules, but if someone provoked her, Mo Xiaoyao was sure that the system would allow her to fight back in self-defense.
Moreover, this is still a "side task" that can be done or not, and perhaps no one will trigger it. From another angle, it gives a vague reminder of the possibility of this being a trap.
It was after figuring this out that Mo Xiaoyao swallowed the words that she was about to sell the girl. Since the two of them jointly set up a trick to trick her or tell the girl that she was going to kill a witch, she had to do the opposite. Only by saying nothing can we win the final victory.
As for the so-called "doll's hatred", let's wait until she, a failed doll, can escape from the witch's hand.
