Fang Sheyan smiled gracefully as he finished introducing the items in the store one by one, but he took the old bitch's words as fart, and then suddenly shouted into the street:
"David! Come here and lend me two pounds!"
"Wait!" Mughal suddenly yelled, and said with a sullen face, "Okay, I want to buy your gold coin, please ask me a price."
Sheyan said decisively:
"Twelve pounds, because I want to buy your holy tree branches, so ten pounds is enough for me."
Sheyan already knew at this time that he had been tricked by Kerry. This guy only told him the process of the mission, but he ignored the steps to buy Mughal items and increase his favorability—of course, people with high charisma values were not excluded. Being able to carry out the mission directly—and Kerry's purpose of doing so at the risk of offending himself should be very simple, of course, to let himself get stuck in the middle of the mission and go back to find him after hitting a wall, and get some benefits by the way. In this nightmare space, of course, interests are paramount. In most cases, everyone is driven by interests.
And the reason Fang Senyan wanted to bargain with Moghul instead of giving gold pounds directly was because he knew that he was not very attractive, and giving gifts directly was actually a way of getting twice the result with half the effort, and this old man was obviously a greedy and profiteer, the son of a profiteer. The essence is not to do business at a loss. Once the gold pound is given away and the mission conditions cannot be met, wouldn't it be completely stuck here? In the end, I'm afraid I'll have to go back and endure Kerry's exploitation.
Hearing the word "ten pounds", the old man jumped up like a mad dog, and shouted, "No way! At most six pounds!"
Probably because he realized that the previous ostentation had no effect, Moghul simply launched a rogue offensive, holding on to the gold coins and refusing to let go. Fang Senyan had no way to deal with him, because the continuous mission would still fall on this bitch after all, so he could only Reluctantly deal. At this time, when mentioning that Ms. Tataxia, the old fellow finally spoke:
"Tatasha... This woman actually still remembers me."
Fang Senyan's ears were almost pricked up, but...but there were none below! The old bitch began to talk to himself:
"Hey, it's been a long time since I've talked so much with others. I'm so thirsty. I wonder if the golden rum from the Iron Hoop Bar next door has arrived."
Fang Senyan held back his anger, so he could only go to the bar next door to ask, and was told that there was one, but it cost one pound per keg (about the weight of a pint of beer today). In desperation, he could only spend money to pay tribute to the old man. Mughal, who had tasted the fine wine, was probably satisfied, and finally told the whole story.
It turned out that the old man was a run-down aristocrat in India. When he was young, he offended people he shouldn't have offended, so he came out to be a sailor and followed the East India Company's ships to Europe. When he was destitute, he met a team of gypsies. Moghul was forced by poverty, so he went to steal, but was discovered by another gypsy, who accidentally killed him.
Gypsies are a wandering people, just like the nomads on the grasslands, but the nomads are chasing water and pastures. They are constantly migrating from one town to another in a caravan. Their status is therefore low, and their legal protection is minimal. Under such circumstances, the murderous Mughal escaped, but since then he will have nightmares every day, and the content of the nightmares is the process of his murder.
After this lasted for a month, Mughal, who was almost mentally broken, took the initiative to return to the gypsy tribe, and only then did he know that the person who cast the curse was his fiancée who killed that person—Tatasha. Because Tatasha's marriage was not actually chosen by her, she didn't have a deep hatred for Mughal. She just asked Mughal to be a servant for three years before letting him go free.
After taking a sip of golden rum, Mughal sighed and said:
"Tell me, what is her message?"
Sheyan stared into Mughal's eyes, and said the most crucial words in this hidden mission:
"The living nourish the dead, and the lonely kill is hot. Nine wild ducks fly over a fierce tiger."
After Mughal heard this completely bizarre sentence, the wrinkles on his face became more profound. He shook his head after a long time, went back to the room, took out a crystal clear fragment, and handed it to Sheyan, who immediately got a reminder :
"You have obtained the quest item: the crystal ball fragment of the gypsy's prophecy. Use: it will illuminate the road ahead of your life and make you step into the right fork in your life."
When the mission reached this step, it had nothing to do with the old man Mughal. Sheyan breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the seaside, held the fragment of the crystal ball with his hand, and put it into the seawater , the fragment of the crystal ball immediately glowed with a faint light, and then it just melted away. Immediately afterwards, the light slowly condensed, forming a line of words on the sea surface like phosphorescent light, which disappeared after a while:
"When the clock strikes midnight, the sobs of the undead will be restored to reality, the dust of history will be erased, and the truth will be revealed soon."
Fang Sheyan stood up, sighed with satisfaction, if the mission was completed here, then there is only one last step left: just come here at midnight. Although Kerry is treacherous, he is only playing tricks, because he also knows that if he does too much, the two of them will tear each other apart, and he will suffer a big loss if he is still in a weak position.
At this time, Sheyan stood up, and was about to go to the port to inquire about news and so on. By the way, he still had some money left on him, and wanted to drink a few glasses of rum to collect the "drunk" milestones, but he was surprised. I found that my current "drunk" milestone has actually increased to 72/100! The milestone point has inexplicably increased by 50 points! When he thought about it carefully, he immediately remembered that he had bought a few sips of the golden rum he had bought for Moghul with him. Could it be that one sip of this golden rum could hold ten glasses of ordinary rum
Thinking of this, Sheyan immediately went to the Iron Hoop Bar, asking to buy two more barrels of golden rum! But he was ruthlessly told that it was sold short, and it was useless to pay more money. In desperation, I had to go back to find Moghul. Who knew that the old man was obviously drunk after a long distance, sleeping soundly on the counter, and two small oak barrels next to him were piled up scatteredly. Obviously, the golden rum left in it can only be described in units of "drops".
Looking at the remaining 28 cups on the milestone, Sheyan calculated that it was only about six or seven bottles of beer. It was not an unacceptable task for him, so he simply sat down and drank, but the people next to the bar were a little stunned immediately. Drink with a leisurely mood, not a guy like Fang Sheyan who pours wine into his mouth glass by glass, who looks like he drinks rum like water!
Fang Senyan acted as if no one was there, and drank the remaining 28 cups in one go. He felt a flash of light in front of his eyes, and got a series of reminders from the nightmare mark:
"You have completed your first milestone as a contractor."
"Your meritorious value +1." (The next time the meritorious value is increased to accumulate ten milestones)
"You have earned the title: Drunkard."
"Drunkard: When you drink alcoholic beverages, your hit rate will decrease by 3%, and your crit rate will increase by 4%, lasting for 60 minutes."
"Only one title can be effective at the same time, do you want to equip the title/drunk at this time?"
"Advanced Milestone: Drunkard Open."
"The drunkard meets the conditions: drink all types of rum, the types are as follows."
"Mulan Tan: Produced by Via Clara Santa Fe Rum Company."
"Ronrico: rum produced by Pluto Riku."
"Lambs Potato Rum: Exclusive to the British Navy."
"Cockspum: Manufactured by the Coy Co., West Indies."
"Lemonhart rum: from Harto & Company, sugar and rum traders."
Fang Sheyan is quite satisfied with the title of "Drunkard", because for him who is good at close combat, it does not require accuracy like long-range shooting. Once there is a slight error, the difference will be a thousand miles away, and the hit rate will drop. The impact of 3% is not serious, but the extra 4% crit is very attractive. In other words, even if he was asked to exchange 3% hit rate for 2% crit Sheyan, he would not hesitate.
More importantly, don't forget Fang Senyan's predicament in the real world. At this time, he is likely to face the double pursuit of the state apparatus and gangsters! No matter how powerful equipment and weapons he obtained in space, he couldn't bring them into the real world, and it didn't help him improve his situation. But the title is the same as its own basic attributes, it is an abstract thing, and it will not be bound by this kind! In this way, it will undoubtedly ease his situation in the real world.
At this time, a rambling thought came to Fang Sheyan's mind... Those famous drunken masters in Chinese history before, must not be the contractors who have obtained milestones related to alcohol like himself! So as long as there is no wine, they cannot activate the title, so their strength will naturally drop significantly.
