Chapter 164: One layer, two or three things (three)

Views:

Fighting BOSS and exploding equipment is one of the favorite things of all gamers. Although the small BOSS giant hyena killed by Le Yuan was not a "rich man" like the floor BOSS, it still contributed a large amount of experience and experience to Le Yuan. When I saw the half-finger gloves called "Greed's Kiss" - all black, they looked very ordinary, but the effect was even more impressive - 1. Hand protection +50%, 2. 3% chance of absorbing damage when attacking. %Recover health points.

But even though the attributes of this pair of gloves are not eye-catching, it still makes Le Yuan feel happy. If nothing else, gloves, rings, cloaks, etc. are all unconventional equipment. It can be said that the rareness is second to them. The most important thing is that they do not occupy equipment. Column, can be used in conjunction with others.

After taking care of the giant hyena, Le Yuan walked to the treasure box and wanted to open the treasure box. A "click-" system prompt blocked Le Yuan's action. A line of system prompts "Closed and cannot be destroyed" appeared above the treasure box.

"Closed?" Le Yuan was confused when he saw the system prompts. Other games also have professional divisions. There can be professions like thieves with lock-picking skills, but in Sword Art Online there is no such division at all. The skill of lock-picking is not available at all. He had never seen it before. As for violent destruction, the red "indestructible" prompt was still displayed in front of Le Yuan's eyes.

Seeing that the treasure he was about to get was about to be lost, Le Yuan clapped his hands and exclaimed: "Isn't the key to the treasure chest usually placed on the guardian beast? Wait a minute, inside the pair of things just now..."

Just now, a bunch of things dropped when fighting the BOSS alone. Le Yuan was upset by the prompt and only took a cursory look at it. He only paid attention to things like equipment. Now he started checking again, and he found the "Mysterious Key" as expected. props.

Clicking on the "Mysterious Key" on the prop bar, a black classical key appeared out of thin air. Le Yuan grabbed it in his hand, and then slowly stretched it towards the keyhole of the treasure box. "Click" the front end of the key just stuffed it in, "Pop" Ta-ta-" Le Yuan pushed forward, and the key completely entered the keyhole.

"Did you succeed?" Looking at the matching key, Le Yuan excitedly twisted the key. The treasure box opened automatically, emitting a burst of white light, and a sword with a black hilt - the Lone Wolf Watcher - popped out.

"Well, it's quite heavy." As soon as Le Yuan grabbed the hilt of the sword and tried to pick it up, he realized that it looked about the same size as the Wise Man of Truth, but its weight was more than 1.5 times that of the latter.

The attributes of the Lone Wolf Watcher are much higher than those of the strengthened Truth Sage, but the attribute requirements are also very high, but it is just right for the current Le Yuan. Le Yuan changed to a new sword and included the Truth Sage in the item list. middle.

On November 16, 2022, the tenth day after the start of the death game, Le Yuan had broken through half of the first level and arrived at Holunka, a small town southwest of the starting town.

These days Le Yuan can be said to be deaf to what is going on outside the window, and only wants to upgrade. It was completely spent in the wild, and nothing else happened during this period except receiving a letter from Luo Rou, explaining a major event that happened recently - the local player disconnection incident, because he was worried that he would burn out his brain due to being disconnected for two hours. , the players in the starting town can be said to be extremely uneasy, and the people in the army are also gathering players while stepping up their leveling.

But these are not the issues that Le Yuan cares about. Just after entering the town of Holunka, Le Yuan got something for free from the prop shop - a regional guide book, a guide distributed for free by an unknown beta tester. Le Yuan flipped through a few pages and concluded that although the author of this guide wanted to help novices, he was resting on his laurels.

Although this guide does record a lot of related matters on the first level, there are fatal errors in some information, not to mention the tail of the furious bee among the monsters Le Yuan encountered. As for the sting shooting skill, according to the guide, the tail stinger of the Furious Bee is basically a one-time suicide attack. After using it, the Furious Bee itself will die in five minutes, but the fact is that this group of bees has no "morality" at all. The tail thorns shot out one after another. If they don't die, they will grow infinitely.

Just when Le Yuan was browsing the guide and sighing at the problems in it, suddenly a slightly nasal female voice said to him: "Hey, why are you sighing while reading the guide? Is there any problem?"

Le Yuan looked up and saw an unknown woman wearing a cloak and less than Le Yuan's shoulders standing in front of him, with her hands on her hips and looking very angry.

"No, it's just that I think that although the person who distributed the guide is a well-intentioned act, he may still do bad things with good intentions." Le Yuan raised the guide book in his hand and said: "This should be what the closed beta players get during the closed beta. Some information, but I think Kayaba Akihiko has changed some data, and some places have changed."

"Changed? Where?" The cloaked woman raised her head to reveal her face inside the cloak. She saw three animal beard-like modifications painted on her pretty face, which actually made her look even cuter, with a golden brown color. The short curly hair, combined together, looks like it can't help but be associated with some kind of rodent.

"Are you concerned? Do you have any relationship with the author of this guide?" When Le Yuan saw the woman's face, he couldn't help but feel familiar.

"Ahem, I'm Argo, arguably the most famous intelligence dealer in Aincrad. If you have anything you want to know, I can trade it with you. Of course, if it's valuable information, I'll give you more. It's charged." Argo pointed at himself with a finger.

"You haven't answered my question yet. What is your relationship with the author of this guide?" Le Yuan looked at Argo's inexplicably familiar face, kept thinking about it, and muttered silently: "Argo, Argo... Mouse Al Ge!?" The last words blurted out, startling Argo in front of him.

"You, how do you know my title? Are you also a beta tester?" Argo pointed at Le Yuan and asked.

Le Yuan opened the main interface and sent a friend invitation message to Argo in front of him. Argo hesitantly stretched out his hand, and then looked at Le Yuan with a smile and pressed it with his last hand, adding Le Yuan as a friend.

"Huh?" Argo had just added Le Yuan as a friend when she discovered that Le Yuan had sent her an email. She clicked on the email and found a large paragraph of text appended to it.

"I don't have anything I want to know for now. You can take these information back. I think the author of the free guide needs these very much. These information can save a lot of people." Le Yuan didn't show any nostalgia at all. He almost said All monster information was sent.

"Le Yuan? Your ID is not that of a closed beta player. Are you a newcomer to SAO for the first time?" Argo looked very surprised when he looked at Le Yuan's equipment standing in front of him.

"Haha, it's nothing. I will keep your name in mind. I hope you can give me a discount when I buy information in the future, okay?" Le Yuan just remembered the identity of SAO's number one intelligence agent in front of him. She is A big name from the early days of the game.

"Hmph, don't think you can bribe me with this information. If you continue to update me with monster information in the future, I will consider giving you a 50% discount when you buy information in the future." Argo said arrogantly, without turning his head.

Hearing Argo's words, Le Yuan knew that his efforts were not in vain and got in touch with Argo.

"Hey, Le Yuan, what level are you at now?" Argo asked seemingly carelessly while sitting next to Le Yuan.

"Me? Are you trying to find out my information?" Looking at Argo looking around, Le Yuan chuckled and said, "Are you still selling players' information? If I want to buy your information, I have to pay. What is it?"

"Hmph, if you want my information, I'll tell you if I give you 100,000 yuan!" Then she looked up and down at Le Yuan and couldn't help but shook her head and said, "Look at your equipment, your clothes and pants are all ordinary stuff, that's all. The sword looks like a treasure, but it shouldn't be worth a hundred thousand, wait..." As she said that, she suddenly looked at Le Yuan's hand, and then grabbed Le Yuan's hand.

"Hey, are all girls so bold nowadays?" Le Yuan quickly broke away from her hand, then crossed his hands and pressed forward to stop her: "Don't come over, I won't give in."

"Tch, you are not worthy of this lady's support." Argo turned her head away, but there was no initial warning in her tone. This fight made the atmosphere between her and Le Yuan more harmonious. After a while, she kept turning her head and said, "The half-finger gloves on your hand shouldn't be decorative, but a rare piece of equipment, right?"

"Ah, does this count as part of our transaction? I wonder what price you plan to spend?" Le Yuan said half-jokingly.

Argo opened the main interface and looked at his Kelshu and said: "I will not pay on credit. As long as you tell me the information about your equipment, I will transfer the money to you immediately."

Regarding this, Le Yuan has nothing to hide. In his opinion, giant hyenas that guard treasure chests are non-renewable resources. Even if he tells Argo, it will be useless. It is impossible for a second giant hyena to appear again. .

Sure enough, when Le Yuan told his experience, Argo shook his head and said with a little pity: "I didn't expect that you, a newcomer, would be able to encounter such a hidden BOSS. It's a pity that the value of this information has been greatly reduced. Forget it, I’ll give you the 1,000 col information fee right away.”

"Hey, don't worry." Le Yuan stopped him. He quickly stood up and said, "Don't worry, I have something else to ask you. Do you have a map leading to the BOSS area on the floor?"

"It's impossible for you to defeat the BOSS. Even during the closed beta period, it's impossible to defeat the floor BOSS without forty elite players above level 10 challenging it together. Besides..." Argo shook his head and said: "The maze has been changed, and I still haven't found the location of the BOSS. You'd better level up in peace."

"Then forget it. Cole will be stored with you first. I'm not short of money now. Let's meet again in the future."

Saying goodbye to Argo, Le Yuan headed towards the next town.
