Chapter 1780 Monica
Being able to walk in a straight line is an amazing skill.
Perhaps in the eyes of many people, being able to walk in a straight line is not a big deal at all, but if you can guarantee that you can walk in a straight line without any difference regardless of the occasion, that would be a bit amazing.
To give an inappropriate example, you might have been able to avoid corruption easily when you were the monitor, but what if you became the mayor?
All in all, this skill, which at first glance seems to have a low degree of difficulty, is actually not that simple. You must know that even people like Mo Tan actually suffered a lot during practice.
But he managed to do it, even if it didn't make up for his hopeless sense of direction.
Now it seems that, at least in this task, Mo Tan, who has mastered such a skill, can definitely be said to be quite advantageous. Since he has no sense of direction, he will not be disturbed by this fog. On this basis, if he can ensure that he walks in a straight line, he can effectively explore with very, very high efficiency.
It is important to mention here that most of the so-called "road crazy" in this world actually just have a poor sense of direction or simply have a bad brain. A poor sense of direction is the same as no sense of direction. They are completely two concepts. The former may be one, two, three or four out of a hundred people, but there are people who have no sense of direction at all... Their rarity is comparable to the literal "rare" outside the game.
In short, Mo Tan, who can walk in a straight line, did not waste any time identifying the direction. He just found a direction and walked over without any hesitation.
Because there may be a slight deviation in the direction when running, Mo Tan did not run away directly, but even if he was just walking fast, his speed would not be at all under the super high dexterity bonus. slow.
Just like that, about half an hour later, Mo Tan, who was walking quickly in a straight line, felt dazed for a while, and then found that he was out of the range of the fog.
“Ha, I knew I wasn’t that lucky~”
Mo Tantan looked around the surrounding environment and made sure that he was still in a dark swamp and not some other ghost place. He took a breath, then turned back to the fog without hesitation, and continued to walk in a straight line in a random direction.
About a class later, he returned to the Dark Swamp again. Because the sky here was always gray and there was no sun, Mo Tan could not tell the direction. He did not know where he was now. Which side of the fog is there, so naturally there is no way to find the 'east' where there may be problems in theory, so we can only wander aimlessly.
“So, it would be great if I had the [Road Finder] in my hand.”
After sighing like this, Mo Tan returned to the fog again and continued his trek.
Although it is boring and grueling, compared to those who are trapped and die here, this level of suffering is nothing to Mo Tan. After all, he has a certain amount of pain every time he goes out. There is a chance that this will happen, so I have long been able to calmly try my luck while being distracted and thinking about other things.
In view of the fact that [Harlequin Card] is currently operating well, and the preparations of the three characters regarding [Inquisition and Controversy] are also very orderly, Mo Tan decided to compile lyrics for Xue Yin. There is no other reason than simple I just want to listen to music.
In fact, Mo Tan can be said to be the most picky listener on the entire planet. Although he has a wide range of music interests, if he really enjoys music, he can't listen to 99% of the songs on the market. Going in, sometimes they even attack certain groups because they are trashing the concept of 'music', including but not limited to measures such as exposing their corrupt private lives. In short, they are very picky.
The only singer he can't pick out is currently the world-class idol whose name is "Her Royal Highness" in the world of innocence and whose real stage name is "Xue Yin".
It is worth mentioning that the above content refers specifically to Mo Tan, who has a "chaotic neutral" personality. As for him under the other two personalities, he actually does not have too stringent requirements in the field of music.
Under the 'Lawful Good' personality, he prefers to pass his time by feeding cats, walking, visiting the market, watching football, cleaning, and reading light novels.
Under the "absolutely neutral" personality, he is more inclined to watch TV dramas, read comics, play games, browse two-dimensional video websites and study recipes.
As for Mo Tan under his current personality, he has no fixed hobbies to spend his free time except listening to music. Xueyin is the only contemporary singer he likes and will give him Writing lyrics is ultimately for this reason.
Although in Xue Yin's words, her soul wavelength is similar to that of Teacher M, Mo Tan himself does not have similar feelings. After all, he never thinks that he has the same soul wavelength.
"Although it's easy to use, it's also very troublesome."
When I think of Xue Yin's smiling face that I can't tell whether she's smart or stupid, I get angry. Mo Tan continues to write a few words in his mind. He lamented the anti-social lyrics that could not be broadcast ten years ago.
In the next two hours, Mo Tan just wrote songs while exploring aimlessly, and even dropped a line in the middle, but because the role of 'Hei Fan' was fine for the time being, Because of the relationship, he directly logged into the public space and switched the character back.
During this exploration, he has successfully escaped from the fog six times, and one of them even returned to the place where he and Yu Ying entered, which is due west of the fog. side.
Unfortunately, Mo Tan, who went straight east referring to the 'West Side', did not gain any clues. He just passed through the fog again and returned to the disgusting dark swamp.
At this time, most people may have begun to wonder whether they have made a mistake somewhere, and then doubt themselves, thinking, "Is it only the people who have been disturbed who can find the clues?", "Is it possible that I have found the wrong method?" "Is this blind search in vain?" and other pessimistic attitudes.
But Mo Tan in the current state does not think so. Asking why, this person has already surpassed the state of 'self-confidence' and believes in every decision he makes extremely arrogantly.
And most of the time, what he firmly believes is indeed correct.
For example, this time, even though he has been spinning around in vain for nearly three hours, Mo Tan still feels that as long as he continues to persevere, he will definitely be able to get closer to the truth hidden under the fog——
……
Game time AM04:39
For the seventeenth time, Mo Tan walked out of the fog, which for him only had the function of blocking his vision.
A bleak breeze blew by, carrying a faint smell of rust.
The bright moon, which has not been seen for a long time, hangs high in the sky, emitting a coquettish light, coating the black earth and gray city walls with a touch of silver frost.
“Oh haha~”
After sighing like this, Mo Tan turned his head and looked behind him, but he could no longer see the strange fog, only a desolation with no edges.
In front of him was a towering and dilapidated city.
“It’s a bit interesting.”
After giving an unexplained comment casually, Mo Tan walked briskly forward with the mentality of taking it as he came, heading straight towards the destination. In the distance, the city gate opened wide as if welcoming visitors, and then——
Poof!
A sharp arrow whizzed down from the sky and nailed itself to the ground less than two meters away from Mo Tan.
At the same time, a handsome figure wearing leather armor, strong body, and holding a long bow also appeared on the top of the city, staring at Mo Tan with a pair of big copper bell-like eyes. : "Who!"
[Enter the high barrier 'Gloomy Cloud' located in the dark swamp: 1/1]
[Find the Violet Empire's Secret Agent: 1/1] [Jackdaw's Oath·Complete Stage 1, get rewards: 5000 reputation for the Violet Royal Family, 3000 reputation for the Dukedom of the Crystal Wolf/Duchy of Dantes/Duchy of Simon, 3000 reputation for the Dukedom of Baroka/Fernand The reputation of the Dukedom/Duchy of Fire Claw is 1500, and you will automatically receive the next step of the task chain]
Accompanied by a series of system prompts, Mo Tan, who had a calm expression on his face, suddenly widened his eyes. He was staring at the tall and strong man on the top of the city. His fists were clenched and his teeth were clenched, and his body consciousness was difficult to understand. He trembled restrainedly, until the opponent bent his bow and arrow again, and then let out a roar -
"Fix your @#¥&*%#&@!!!!"
That's right, after completing the first link of this epic-quality task chain, Mo Tan not only didn't feel the slightest bit relieved, he even cursed loudly as if he had a sudden illness.
In terms of the reason, it is actually not difficult to guess.
To summarize, Mo Tan has completed the task of [Jackdaw's Oath·Phase 1]. In other words, he has satisfied the requirements of [entering the high-level barrier 'Gloomy Cloud'] and [finding the Violet Empire] Secret Agent] These two conditions.
The first one is easy to understand. If nothing else, this environment is completely different from the dark swamp outside. It is inside the so-called high-level barrier.
The key point is the second one.
Obviously, the 'Secret Agent of the Violet Empire' is a person, and so far, apart from Yu Ying, Mo Tan has only seen one person, the one who is holding a bow and shooting arrows on the top of the city not far away. Macho man.
Macho man! ! !
You must know what Yongxiu told Mo Tan at that time, that the missing secret agent was a ‘woman who conforms to the aesthetics of people from other worlds’.
The result?
Macho man!
Although deep down in his heart, Mo Tan still cursed loudly the regent of the Violet Empire out of a sense of ritual, and at the same time, his attention was firmly focused on the macho man at the top of the city. To ensure that even the slightest difference in the latter will be noticed by himself.
The result was that the macho man had no reaction at all to the name 'Xiu'. He just drew his bow and aimed at Mo Tan, who suddenly became hysterical, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you! Why do you appear here? Jackdaw Castle, say it quickly!”
“Hero, spare your life!”
Then Mo Tan fell to his knees on the ground and cried hoarsely: "The young man's name is Anthony Dabbs. He is just a lost traveler. Please be kind and generous and let me have a dog..."
"Hey!!"
The macho man squatting next to him frowned, gave Mo Tan an elbow, and lowered his voice. Yin said: "How dare you be distracted after this! Are you looking for death?"
"Huh?"
Mo Tan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly found that he was squatting at the moment Behind a dense plant, besides the macho man, there were twenty or thirty people standing next to them, all of them with serious expressions as if facing a formidable enemy.
"Ah what!"
The macho man unhappily pulled out the dagger from Mo Tan's waist and thrust it into the latter's hand roughly: "Listen up Anthony, I know you are a newbie. Come, but this is a battlefield, a battlefield where everyone is treated equally, so if you don’t want to die, just concentrate. The enemy will not show mercy just because you have never been on the battlefield before.”
“Okay. Guy, the efficiency of recruiting into the army is a bit too high."
Mo Tan smacked his lips, sighed, and then smiled before the other party continued to preach: "Sorry, sorry, I just did. I'm a little distracted. I've been living in a haze these days. It was the worst just now. I almost forgot what your name was, Ergou."
"What Ergou..."
The macho man widened his bell-like eyes, pointed at his nose and said loudly: "My name is Monica!"
"Bullshit."
"Huh?"
“Nothing, Monica.”
Mo Tan looked at the muscular and bearded Highlander next to him expressionlessly, and quickly came to the conclusion that Xiu may not be lying to me. After a brief silence, he said: "I'm a little nervous, you Can you accompany me to the back to pee?”
The macho Monica frowned, but finally nodded and said: "Okay, you come with me, don't wander around without permission and affect the formation."
After saying that, he turned around flexibly and half-crouched He walked quickly towards the back, while Mo Tan followed him with a stooped posture, and within a moment he was brought to a deserted open space.
“Let’s deal with it quickly.”
While unbuckling her belt, Monica said to Mo Tan without raising her head: “The enemy is coming soon, although this time The people who attack and ambush are all elite, but the other party is not a vegetarian. We can't stay away for too long."
"I'm a little shy."
Mo Tan smiled coquettishly, and then pointed to the grass not far away: "I'm going to pee over there, and I'll be back soon."
After that, he turned around and ran towards the area that was very suitable for defecation. After a moment of silence, Monica's voice sounded again: "Okay, but you have to move quickly, otherwise... ugh!"
He couldn't say anything. After that, he let out a muffled groan and then placed it heavily on the ground. Mo Tan, who was not actually going to the toilet, immediately turned around and saw a rather disturbing scene.
Monica fell face down on the ground before she had time to pull up her pants. Her two legs covered with body hair were twitching, and there was a huge bloody hole behind her. The location is quite deadly.
Beside him was a short figure covered in a black cloak.
In the attacker's hand, a huge heavy sword was dripping with blood, which was dazzling and pungent.
