Chapter 39 World Quest
As we all know, the four words "unkind invitation" are usually not followed by anything good, unlike "a big responsibility from heaven" which can only be used for one's own misfortune. , the former is usually something that has nothing to do with the person involved, but will cause a lot of trouble after being 'invited'.
If the person sitting here was Tan Mo, he would have already walked away as soon as the other person finished speaking, or immediately started to figure out how to strike first before others tricked him. Something happened to drag the other party into trouble...
However, Mo Tan did not have such thoughts at this time. On the contrary, he really hoped to be able to help him solve a big trouble just now. Lin Jing's caravan wanted to do something, so he immediately made a gesture of listening: "Please speak~"
But Ya Ya on the side was playing with his fingers with a frown on his face, muttering in his mouth: "No, no." Please? Please?”
It seemed that Elder Broken Branch didn't care that she followed him. Mosquito coils seemed to have begun to appear in the girl's big watery eyes.
“Many years ago, our clan had an agreement with a group of transcendent beings.” Elder Broken Branch gently stroked his long leek-like beard and whispered in the sharp voice of the forest elf. : "Tens of thousands of years, even if the forest elves are a long-lived species with a lifespan almost equal to that of the elves, it is long enough for us, just like a story."
Mo Tan nodded, his eyes focused. And clear.
"Shang Wangnian... Wu?" Yaya muttered vaguely.
Mo Tan: "......."
"But some time ago, those beings who had disappeared for who knows how many years suddenly contacted us." Elder Broken Branch was not disturbed by the barking (...), and just played with the leeks on his chin and continued: "They want our clan to fulfill their promise, and the sooner the better."
"So the purpose of this caravan is actually..." Mo Tan is very smart, and he has already made some basic associations after hearing this.
He had heard from Mag before that the forest elves rarely set foot outside the forest where they live. They usually have fixed channels and channels for trade with other races. He has almost never heard of it. They have organized long-distance caravans.
So although it can't be called big news, this matter still puzzled Jiu Mengzi for a long time.
And the answers now seem to be beginning to emerge...
"Wow!" Yaya tugged on Mo Tan's sleeve, and his expression suddenly became very excited: "Hey, Wang Nian!"
This girl is simply an atmosphere killer!
Perhaps because he often cares for small animals, Mo Tan subconsciously reached out and patted Yaya's head, then pinched her ears and signaled the dog lady to be quiet for a while.
Then...
I'm sorry, there are no settings for sensitive parts, blushing, etc. Yaya just shrank his neck obediently and really became quiet.
"Well, then let's continue." Elder Broken Branch saw that Mo Tan's 'True Serenity Soothing' was quite effective, so he continued: "As you can imagine, our purpose this time is to fulfill the agreement in the past. Lin Jing has always been As a trustworthy race, our race will always remember the kindness we received from thousands of years ago. "
Well... it probably means the same thing as keeping it in mind...
" But the journey to complete the mission was not smooth." Duanzhi suddenly looked serious (as Mo Tan guessed) and said in a deep voice: "Because the matter is so important, in order to confuse those evil people, our clan sent out twenty-one caravans at the same time. The departures were all different in terms of routes and sizes, but they were still all targeted."
Mo Tan frowned slightly: "Evil ones? Are you talking about...the group that attacked the caravan last time? "People?"
"They are just a part of it." Broken Branch shook his head and said: "Some time ago, unknown forces suddenly spread rumors throughout the continent, claiming that our clan was about to escort a treasure to a certain place, but that There was no way to delay the plan any longer, so we could only embark on the journey within the specified time, and in a hurry, we thought of a way to confuse the public. ”
Mo Tan had no intention of getting to the bottom of it, and just nodded lightly: "What can I do to help you?"
"The caravan will set off again soon." Broken Branch whispered: "But No one can guarantee that those greedy chaos and evil people will come back again, so I want to ask you to help me keep this..."
Click!
When the Lin Jing elder said this, he broke off his right arm and handed it to Mo Tan.
What's going on? Are you going to kill yourself when you get up? Or is this arm, which is not much thicker than a wheat stalk, the legendary unicorn arm that lasts for thousands of years?
"Huh?" Although the latter's ability to accept is really not weak, he was still a little confused for a moment: "I don't understand very well."
"I am called 'Broken Branch' if my limbs are sound What a strange thing." Elder Lin Jing chuckled, raised his remaining left hand and lightly scratched the wheat stalk in front of Mo Tan: "It's just a little trick."
The distorted light curtain. appeared in front of Mo Tan, and then he heard Yaya beside him, who had been trying to calm down, screamed in surprise.
“It’s so weird!!”
After the disguise faded away, the ‘broken arm’ had completely turned into something else, looking like a prism-like pure white crystal. , it is faintly emitting light in four colors: azure blue, green, red, and light gold. If you observe carefully, you will find countless lines wandering inside.
"I hope you can keep this thing temporarily for a few days." Broken Branch raised the crystal in front of Mo Tan and said solemnly: "Whether I saw it with my own eyes or the mother tree's feedback, I was told that you are worth it. Trust.”
Of course Mo Tan is worthy of trust at this moment, and he knows this very well, and now that he thinks about it, the scene where he redeemed the girl before was probably seen by Elder Broken Branch. The feedback from the so-called mother tree may be related to his 'lawful good' camp.
But he still didn't take it rashly...
"Thank you for your trust." Mo Tan said with some embarrassment: "But it may be difficult for me to complete this task with my strength. To be honest, , even those sand goblins we met last time, if there are just a little more in number, they might chop me into pieces, so..."
Unexpectedly, Elder Broken Branch shook his head: "Those evil spirits The target of the disciples should only be our Lin Jing caravan, so there is no reason to find you. And if this contracted object is not in our hands, the other party may not necessarily kill them all. After all, Mr. Mag and his team are not weak."
"That is to say." Mo Tan said thoughtfully: "This way you will be much safer?"
"Exactly."
"Okay." Mo Tan finally agreed. He came down and took the crystal prism in front of him, which looked quite powerful, and solemnly said: "I will try my best to protect it."
This is in the game. If it were in reality, Mo Tan might not dare to accept this thing at this moment. For no other reason than to protect himself...
After all, not Beware of a change of personality, Mo Tan can do such things as slicing or reselling things entrusted to him.
【Eternal Crystal】
Only mission items and equipment
Equipment restrictions:? ? ?
Properties:? ? ?
Trait: Core Power Source
[Note: In most cases, this thing is useless, even if it is used for lighting, it is too heavy. 】
In short - although it is unclear, it is powerful.
Then a system prompt rang in Mo Tan's ears.
[You have triggered the world task: Escort the Eternal Crystal, task reward: none; failure penalty: world collapse +3%]
? ? ?
Mo Tan suddenly felt his shoulders sink!
It doesn’t matter that there are no mission rewards...
But what is the degree of collapse of this world?
It’s just a mission, just to help others, why did the event level suddenly rise to such a high level! ?
"Someone will come to pick you up in three days." Elder Broken Branch nodded to Mo Tan: "Then our caravan and Captain Mag will go on their way first." Mo Tan nodded stiffly, For a moment, I didn't know what to say.
After a few more pleasantries, Elder Broken Branch and his two followers said goodbye and left, while Mo Tan put the influential eternal crystal into his bag under Yaya's curious eyes.
Although the latter was a little regretful about the fact that "Shining is gone", he was not too surprised. After all, space magic props do not seem to be uncommon in this world.
After appeasing the dog girl for a while, Mo Tan left the Adventurer's Guild alone. Although the former had a great affection for him, Mo Tan did not turn him into his slave. In response to Meizi's thoughts, first of all, he was a little worried that the gathering with Yaya would not put the latter in danger. After all, although Duanzhi said that this commission was relatively safe, the previous large-scale attack still left the latter in danger. He was a little scared.
The second thing is that he is going to change his account to take a look at the situation on the Fenrir team, and is eager to find a place where no one is around to log off...
If you think about it from another angle, being offline would also be of great benefit to protecting that eternal crystal.
However, there was an episode on the way.
After learning that Mo Tan could no longer travel with the caravan for some reason, Mag immediately intercepted him on the road and told Mo Tan to work hard to improve his strength and adventurer level to become a little stronger. After a while, he quickly considered whether to join the Barbarian Dragon Mercenary Group and stuffed him with another prop.

[Remarks: The latest escape device of the Goblin Engineering Alliance can allow you to quickly get away from danger and at the same time enjoy a refreshing and elegant journey. Its safety is absolutely guaranteed. PS: Don’t believe it]
To be honest, without that last sentence, Mo Tan felt that he would be more grateful to this dwarf warrior with a bold personality.
It is getting late

When Mo Tan appeared in front of Fenrir Team's station, night had already arrived in the Innocence Continent, and it was difficult to see the sky in the real world. The stars intertwine in the sky to form a magnificent scene, using the moment of burning out their lives to illuminate a certain land that is in the distant future for them...
But even if I want to stay a little longer, But after going online, Mo Tan still rushed to the military camp. After all, he knew that he might be kicked off the line at any time, and he didn't know which 'self' it was...
Some of his thoughts during the day made him uneasy.
"Yo!" A crisp voice interrupted the increasingly ominous thoughts. Yin Na, the sharpest-eyed among the team, spotted Mo Tan immediately and immediately shouted at the top of her voice: "Our commander The official is here."
Ned, who was naked to the waist and had a thick roll of gauze wrapped around his waist, glared at her, then smiled at Mo Tan, who was walking towards him, "It's true. It’s okay if you don’t come. Let’s take a break for the next two days.” Salazar, who was tightly clamped, shook his head, leaned on the wooden stake next to the fire and showed a shy smile to Mo Tan: "It's just a minor injury, it's okay."
"Hey!" Crabbe, who was almost wrapped in bandages, shouted dissatisfied: "Is there anyone seriously injured here? Hei Fan is here to help!"
It seems that he has been online all night. Futaba stood next to Yinna and snorted: "Ignore that big guy, he's just pretending, and just now he tried to trick me into giving him a massage, saying it needed to relax his muscles and activate his muscles."
"Then what? ~" Mo Tan also understood at this moment She relaxed and asked with a smile: "You ignored him?"
"No." Yinna smiled sweetly: "Sister Shuangye asked Salazar to teach her some joint skills, and then Help Crabbe relax his muscles and bones."
The strong orc man, who could no longer act, turned over and sat up, sighing with a grimace: "I almost burned my hair with a fireball. ”
Everyone burst out laughing happily~
The most effective way to bring people closer to each other is through the experience of working together to overcome some huge crises...
"Have a good rest for two days. I have already applied for leave for everyone." Ned said and went into the barracks and took out a small bag: "And this time we have made a small contribution. There are Give me money!”
“Hey! Why didn’t you tell me about such an important thing earlier?”
“Hei Fan hasn’t come yet, and I also want to cover it up for a while... ”
"Tsk, tsk, captain, you are not kind."
"Get out! How many drinks have you indulged me in!"
"Ah~I waited specially for Hei Fan to come back~~It's so romantic~"
"Yinna, believe it or not, I can hit you even though you are injured!"
"Sister Futaba, save me!"
"No, don't you think the captain is cute when he is shy..."
"That's too much, you guys!!"
...
Not far from Dieyan City The edge of the Fire Fang territory, somewhere
"Lord Karon! We can prepare to retreat. The chief said that we must bring that bastard back as soon as possible!"
"What's the hurry..." The orc officer who was responsible for guarding and escorting a certain fugitive looked up at the starry sky and said softly: "I have to wait for that guy to come over. He will definitely come. I can feel that within the next few days , soon, soon..."
Shen The heavy fanged battle ax crashed to the ground, and the blood-red eyes were filled with resentment and hatred...
"Only blood...can wash away..."
The thunderous battle The roar exploded, almost shattering the eardrums of the messenger guard.
“Humiliation!!”
