Under such circumstances, Crohnpiss is recognized by the system as an NPC with AI equivalent to human intelligence and is active.

His identity is—Kranpis Lilith Radius, the king of fairies who was originally in charge of the fairy races such as the Fairy of the Forest, the Fairy of the Wind, and the Dark Fairy.

Crohnpiss wants to emphasize here: the strange last name is generated by the system itself and has nothing to do with her. ..

Due to the consequences of the mutation that turned the normal world into Aincrad, plus her betrayal and slander, she was forced to flee and lived in seclusion at the bottom of Aincrad. The town bought a big house and lived an ordinary life for the time being.

Her speech and behavior and some hidden furnishings and dresses in the house will give some hints to people with player brains.

By the way, in the end she gave a 20% discount, which was obviously watched by several players.

After all, when the player goes to buy something, no matter what the dialogue is, it will only pop up a format dialog box and menu that cannot be modified. The price is fixed, and it is the player's freedom to buy or not.

"Do npcs have this kind of privilege?"

"That's just a scene that seems to be in line with reality. If you care about it, you lose."

Someone was talking about it so understandably.

"This is 375 cols."

"Thank you for your patronage."

Clounpiss took the big basket full of things for the shopkeeper and started home.

"Being followed..." Her eyes rolled back slightly.

This is not surprising, many npcs can't speak much and are dull, probably because of the cost of AI, so the possibility of npcs that behave more like humans to trigger plots and tasks is not small. In fact, when she first lived here, she was besieged several times, and when her home was rummaged—

As a result, she reported to the guards while beating them away with a kitchen knife, and the players who broke into her house and tried to find a treasure chest or trigger the plot were captured and put in prison. Of course, this kind of thing didn't just happen to her alone, there were also players who violently resisted the law and were killed by guards in other places. It wasn't until this kind of information was listed in the information book regularly distributed by anonymous original beta testers that the majority of players complained about why Kayaba Akihiko made the game world so realistic, and settled down.

Even so, there will occasionally be people who are on the lookout for opportunities to trigger quests.

But this time is different, using skills such as [Concealment] obviously has an ulterior purpose.

She returned to her yard, looked around vigilantly, and then turned around and said seriously: "Who is it? It doesn't look like a guest, come out. Or are you an assassin sent by which side?"

Behind the fence, a short female player wearing a cloak was startled. At the same time, a three-choice dialog box of "quest/conversation/leave" popped up in front of her.

"Originally, my purpose was to use [Concealment] for the tenants (players) of her house, but did it trigger a plot that no one can trigger?"

It is public information that the hostess hacked the player with a kitchen knife. Considering the sentence just now, leaving may be hunted down, and it is not safe to rush to accept the task without preparation and intelligence, so she clicked "Dialogue" to bypass Fence into the yard.

"Show your face, and report your name." Cloenpiss continued to press.

The player glanced at the cursor that appeared above Kraunpiss's head at this time. The identification color was black and red (a very high-level npc entered a hostile combat state), with an exclamation mark (can trigger tasks). Protection, but there are several situations where you will still be hurt: Players duel, trigger combat plot tasks, attack NPCs or other crimes, and are attacked by self-defense counterattacks or guards, especially in the first few days of the game, due to the third cause of death There are hundreds of players.

She secretly thought that if it was an NPC, it would be fine to follow the rules of not actively attacking, so she put down her hood to reveal her flaxen hair and a moderately cute face, and said, "I'm Argo, I have something to discuss with your tenant. , Sorry for the misunderstanding."

Crohnpiss immediately put away her previous aura, pretending to smile and said: "Really, next time don't do such a misleading thing. The tenants of my house go to the wild to explore and hunt monsters during the day, and sometimes come back It will be earlier, sometimes until midnight or even early morning. How about you, do you want to stay first? The meals at my house are cheap and delicious.”

Various service menus from hotel accommodation to meals popped up in front of Argo.

Broadly speaking, this is both an inn and not an inn. In fact, apart from some places marked "inn" where people can live in Aincrad, there are also many npc houses that can be lived in for other reasons by triggering dialogue and plots. In a sense, it is equivalent to a hotel, and the procedure for housing activation is the same as that of a hotel, but there is no store name, and the system map will never be marked. In the absence of a city map that is similar to the reality, each location is marked in detail. , are more difficult to find.

This is indeed cheaper than ordinary hotels and restaurants. I clicked "rent a house" in order to save money and collect an extra piece of information here.

"Please confirm the rental time."

There is a scroll bar after the dialog box, the minimum is ninety-nine days, you can choose a room, but there is no "Cancel" option.

Argo said in her heart, "I was tricked", and it was still a little inconvenient for her to have a fixed place, so she had no choice but to choose the lowest amount of time and the cheapest single room.

At this time, another girl with a big chestnut ponytail ran over in a panic on the street, and ran into Crounpis's house, past the two who were evasive by conditioned reflex.

"Ah so much..."

"It's your tenant? Can I talk to her?" Argo asked.

"Please, but don't make trouble for me by fighting. The daily meal time is fixed, and there is one hour before dinner time. I will prepare it now. If you miss the time, you will not be refunded~lightnovelpub.net~ Got it. "

Watching Argo enter the house, Cloenpiss walked around to the backyard and entered the kitchen, thinking: "In the end, there was still a situation where we encountered non-players. Do we have to try to add some powerful passers-by?"

Crohnpiss started to handle the ingredients. Since Shuna helped her solve the problem, cooking has become one of her current hobbies. It is still very interesting before getting bored.

At the same time, she also called up the player list during this period.

The strange thing is that at the beginning of the death game, with so many deaths, there are still players entering the pit from time to time. Now "swordartonle" has been completely blocked, and only the black market still has the last batch of stocks that should have been destroyed. See Come on, even the death game still has charm.

However, it must be known that whether it is nervgear or other compatible hardware, it can monitor the human body to a certain extent, and Crohnpiss has a way to confirm its basic identity.

See if there are any surprises.
