Chapter 137 Cordoba
【You have been disconnected, please choose whether to reconnect. 】
When Mo Tan, who suddenly transformed into a 'lawful good' personality, heard this sentence, he quit the game without any hesitation.
“Damn, why is it at this time!”
His face was full of worry when he climbed out of the game cabin, and then he washed his face as quickly as possible , to wake himself up from the slightly dazed mental state after the personality transformation.
[I just finished cleaning up those skeleton soldiers, and I was disconnected before I could ask anything...]
Mo Tan, who returned to the living room, threw himself on the sofa. He tried hard to adjust his breathing, trying to let go. Return your mental state to stability as soon as possible.
"Xiao Wenqiu is still there. If the danger is not over yet, it will be difficult for the two players without attribute restraint to protect her. They must go back as soon as possible..." He whispered to himself, He gently rubbed his forehead with his hands.
Maybe it’s not a big deal to an adult like me, but Mo Tan is never willing to let an inexperienced girl be ‘killed’ by those ghastly looking skeletons!
Maybe it will leave a psychological shadow!
Mo Tan was a little anxious...
Most people are more or less afraid of darkness, corpses, skeletons and the like, even though they are never lethal.
Afraid of the dark because our eyes, which are used to receive external information most of the time, are limited. In this case, the human instinct called the sense of crisis will gradually be amplified, and the fear of the unknown will Leading to random thoughts and uncontrollable thinking, etc. Then it becomes a matter of scaring yourself...
In fact, darkness is just a 'lightless' state, and its only lethality on the physical level is that it makes you unable to see clearly. An accidental fall or bump, other than that, nothing.
As for corpses or skeletons, their main lethality is still only at the spiritual level. Also because of the sense of crisis, many creatures will become timid when seeing the corpses of their own kind, especially in certain environments. Next, we will subconsciously bring ourselves into it, and then make all kinds of crazy thoughts, and finally be scared to death...
In fact, skeletons in reality are not even as threatening as darkness. With only their skeletons left, they do not cry, make noise, or scream. They can also be used as tools when necessary, and they can even replenish your health when necessary. Calcium is not scary at all, is it? !
But the problem is...
Mo Tan, who can make the above judgment from an objective perspective, may not be afraid, but the innocent and cute Wen Qiu, who is inexperienced in the world, may not be afraid, even if that girl is brave enough Big, but that’s not necessarily the case when she sees those bouncing skeletons in the game. Even if she sees those bouncing skeletons and even gets chopped down by them, she’s calm...
Then he’s a little worried!

Misha County, Hodir Avenue
"Xiao Wenqiu!" Mo Tan turned around anxiously and shouted immediately after getting online.
"Xiao Wenqiu is here!" The girl standing a few meters in front of him stretched out her little hand and said loudly and energetically.
“Huh?” Mo Tan was obviously a little dumbfounded.
"Brother Hei Fan, were you dragged out of the game cabin by your roommate just now?" The girl blinked her clear and bright black eyes, jumped up to Mo Tan and said with a smile: " The relationship is really good!"
Mo Tan laughed: "Ha, hahaha... Yes, the relationship is really good. What about those two people just now?"
"Those two big brothers just now?" Wenqiu stretched out his index finger and lightly tapped his pink lips, tilted his head: "It seems that he was afraid of monsters or something, and he ran away soon after Brother Hei Fan disappeared. Dropped it!"
Mo Tan summoned Xiao Bai with a wolf whistle again, then picked up Wenqiu's petite body and put it on Xiao Bai's back, frowning slightly: "They didn't plan to take it with them. Are you running together? ?”
“You said it!” The girl shook her head vigorously and said with a smile, “But I have to wait for Brother Hei Fan to come back, so I didn’t go with them~”
Mo Tan He turned over and rubbed Wenqiu's hair lovingly: "That's good, it seems those two are good people."
"Yes, yes, they are both good people... ”

At the same time
Black Tower City, Thieves Guild, Shadow Hall
Second level receptionist 'Golden Tooth' Tatami is curled up in a chair out of boredom Manicure, she is one She is a middle-aged female dwarf dressed in coquettish clothes. She is a veteran of the Thieves Guild in Black Tower City. Although her strength is not very good, she has a wide network of contacts and her ability to get things done is not bad, so her life is not bad. Quite moisturizing.
She is very satisfied with herself for being able to climb to the position of second-level receptionist in this place. You must know that the Thieves Guild here in Black Tower City not only pays well, but also the money and money that can be earned are generous enough. , it is enough to be dignified when going out for business occasionally, so Tatami also cherishes her position very much.
"But these days are so boring..."
She muttered in a low voice, threw the dagger decorated with inferior gems on the round table in front of her, held her cheek and sighed, That eye-catching big gold tooth shines near the corner of the mouth, which is particularly cool.
An orc thief who had just completed the task walked up to her and smiled teasingly: "Sister Jin, listen to my brother's advice, let's sell this tooth. This thing can at least Lose half of your stealth level."
"I want you. No matter." Tatami curled her lips and rolled her eyes at the orc in front of her: "Go away, I don't have time to entertain you."
The orc thief chuckled: "Thank God for your 'entertainment'. Brother, I really can’t stand it..."
"It's blocking the road."
A cold voice sounded behind him.
The orc thief turned around suddenly: "Who?"
Then he was gently pushed aside. The other party didn't even look at him, but walked slowly to Tatami. In front of her, she threw a piece of paper on the table in front of her and said in a deep voice Said: "A little interested."
Tatami raised his head and looked at the young, handsome, cold, and not easy-to-mess with human man in front of him, and picked up the note in front of him. Glancing at it: "This is..."
"Explain it." The other party said softly, his slightly narrowed eyes not even looking at her.
Before Tatami could speak, the orc thief who was pushed aside just now said angrily: "You rude little..."
"Shut up!" Tatami However, Tammy glared at him, then coughed slightly, and asked the young man in front of her seriously: "Who are you? What level are you?"
She subconsciously felt that the other person was not simple.
"Cordoba, mid-level thief" the other party cherished his words like gold.
The orc curled his lips: "Tch, I thought it was so powerful, but it turns out it was just a hit..."
"Shut up, Scarface!" Tatami slammed the table and rushed The orc said angrily: "You have nothing to do here now!"
The latter curled his lips and left in frustration.
【This young man is not simple! 】
Looking at Mr. Cordoba in front of her, Tatami immediately judged in her heart that she was quite accurate in seeing people. Even though she only looked at him a few times, The guy in front of me is definitely not an ordinary mid-level thief!
Although the equipment on his body is not eye-catching, it is all expensive and good goods. The appearance that seems to be looked down upon by no one is worthy of scrutiny. Even if his strength is indeed only at the mid-level level, since he can have such a temperament, it can be seen that this person Young people don’t have anything Niuguan's background is full of powerful trump cards, and his slightly narrowed eyes, as if there are two sharp knives hidden inside, make Tatami, who is also a mid-level thief, shiver all over. In short...
This kind of person must not be offended!
【Scarred face like a dog, you owe me once! ] "I won't ask any more questions." Tatami breathed a sigh of relief, then raised his head and smiled at the young man in front of him: "Do you want to know more information?"
The other party nodded slightly.
"Okay, let's go inside and talk."
......
Five minutes later
Hideout hall, small reception room
"Things That's it." Tatami put a piece of paper in front of the other party and whispered: "Something belonging to our Black Tower Thieves Guild has been stolen. The other party is probably still in the city now. That thing That’s it…”
The young man glanced at the piece of paper in front of him with a small box drawn on it, and nodded: "Continue."
"There is a piece of information that is very important to our guild." Tatami He shrugged and said: "I don't know the specifics, but one thing is for sure, that is, except for our Black Tower Guild, no one else can open the box even if they get it, so the other party's purpose is probably... ”
Cordoba interrupted impatiently: "The main point."
"Okay." Tatami didn't mean to be angry at all, but said with a smile on his face: "In short, As long as we find any clues related to this box, as long as we are sure it is valid, the guild will give a reward of 50,000 gold coins, 50,000 gold coins in clean money."
The other party shook his head: "Not interested."
"Of course, I have already guessed it." Tatami smiled and said: "What you are interested in should be the 'Quota for a certain ruins exploration team', right?"
The young man nodded.
"In fact, that relic is related to the information in that box." Tatami shrugged and spread his hands: "I don't know more."
"Okay." Cordoba nodded, and then suddenly asked softly: "So, if I help you get your things back, what is the reward?"
Tatami suddenly trembled: " What did you say? ”
"Is there any problem?" The other party looked at her coldly, stroking the dagger on her waist, and murmured: "How will you know if you don't try it?"
To be honest, if the other party is really just a For a mid-level thief, this idea is really outrageous...
Of course, Tatami would not say these words. She just followed the instructions from above and replied with a serious face: "If you can directly help the guild retrieve that thing, in addition to the exploration team quota just mentioned, we will also give you..."
She swallowed: "Twenty-five thousand gold coins , clean.”
“That’s all?” The young man in front of him raised his eyebrows, his tone seemed a little disappointed.
"Yes, yes..." Tatami said with a wry smile: "That's it. Of course, we can guarantee that we will not 'trouble you' afterwards, and at the same time we will not leak your personal information. In the name of the Black Tower Thieves Guild, As a guarantee.”
The implication is, don’t worry about killing you if we give you money.
Cordoba nodded slightly, stood up and said, "I understand, see you later."
Tatami bowed and saluted.
Ten minutes later
Black Tower City Thieves Guild, third underground floor, a certain room
"That's what happened, Lord Muse." Tatami lowered her head and said softly to the person in front of her who was covered in leather armor: "I I think that boy may have some background..."
Muse Anzhi, the vice-president of the Black Tower City Thieves Guild, waved his hand: "I understand, let's go down."
Tatami left. .
"If he really got the thing back, then there is nothing to say." Muse gently blew out the only oil lamp in the room and said to himself in the dead darkness. : "But if he fails... I might as well make friends with that little guy and see where he comes from..."

Four hours later
Black Tower City, Room 11, Liuli Pavilion
Mo Tan, who had just gone online, walked out of the lounge and glanced at the slumped figure with a smile. Cole, who was in the hall, blinked: " Is the matter done?”
The young man named Korshurun, who was formerly known as Cordoba, immediately stood up and bowed to Mo Tan: “It’s done, sir. , exactly as you expected.”
"How do you feel?" Mo Tan did not get down to business first, but asked jokingly: "Is it exciting?"
"Exciting!" Cole took a long breath and said with a wry smile: "It's too exciting. It was so exciting that I broke into a cold sweat when I came back, and my whole body was stiff."
Mo Tan blew a loud whistle, threw himself on the sofa in front of Cole, and said with a smile: "Get used to it. That’s good. They should have been fooled by you, right?”
The stressed-out young thief nodded: “Yes, I told you everything you told me before, as well as the one who offered the reward. I basically know the specific content..."
Then he recounted the previous conversation with Tatami to Mo Tan.
"Haha, they really have a way to open this thing." Mo Tan played with the small box in his hand, his elusive eyes full of joy: "Two hundred and fifty thousand gold coins, tsk tsk, it turns out to be such a valuable thing. Very good, very good, really good~~~"
Kole blinked: "So what are your next plans?"
Mo Tan grinned: "Wan Let’s go to the Thieves Guild again.”
“Oh, I understand!” Cole nodded, and then said with a smile: “Sir, you are really awesome, you made twenty-five dollars easily. Ten thousand gold coins!”
“Idiot.” Mo Tan snorted, his smile suddenly turned cold, and interrupted: “Do you think I’m going to let you exchange this thing for a bounty?”< br>
Cole was stunned for a moment: "Isn't it?"
"Of course not." Mo Tan shook his head and held out two fingers: "There are two reasons..."
Ke Er: "?"
"No. One, as long as the people over there are not stupid, then don't plan to come back alive~" Mo Tan winked at Cole and said with a smile: "You will definitely die."
The latter immediately became stupid. : "Huh?"
"Second, I think two hundred and fifty thousand gold coins is a bit too little."
"Huh?!"
