Chapter 408: So come and be a hero!

  Chapter 408 So come and become a brave man!

  【Veda struggled to the ground from the headless horseman's bone spear, bleeding profusely and was seriously injured. 】

  【Veda looked at you resentfully, but didn't dare to fight at all, and hurriedly fled the scene with his disabled body. 】

  【It's a pity that the Headless Horseman has already locked him as the target, the horse's head turned around, and charged towards the prey again. Bone's spear whizzed past with a huge impact, and it was about to crush the seriously injured Veda to death on the spot...]

  【You threw out the retractable chain claw in time, and when Veda was dying, you saved him from the headless horseman's gun. 】

  【Assassin's body was chained and flew towards you, Veda looked at you in disbelief, and before he could express any thanks to you, you pierced Veda's chest with one claw. 】

  【You killed the level 17 player 'Veda', life +1, experience +17, and you got 'Assassin skin fragment'*1. 】

  【You found 'fluorescent lens'*1, 'suspicious fluorescent badge fragments'*2 at the place where Veda died]

  【Because you took the initiative to attack other fools and caused the death of the opponent, you gained a layer of red name, the current number of layers of red name: 36 layers. 】

   The price of killing this malicious player is another layer of red name.

But it doesn't matter, in the process of fighting for Eternal Night City with Blood Dawn before, because of the powerful group killing ability of the black hole, he successively got the red name of the 40th floor. Down, otherwise the number of layers will only explode.

   A few layers have been washed off in the past two days, but it is still far away from returning to normal. At this time, one more layer or one less layer has almost no effect.

In addition to eliminating the red name through time, it can also be cleared through the Fool’s reputation on the Sky City, but there is a limit on the number of times. The first time you wash the red name every day, you only need 10 points of reputation, the second time 100 points, and the third time. 1000 points, and so on, every time after that, it will be multiplied by 10 times.

   It can be seen that only the consumption of the first two times per day is within the acceptable range, and the third and subsequent times do not need to be considered at all.

  Counting the natural removal of one layer every day, it is equivalent to a maximum of three layers of red names per person per day. His current 36 layers of red names will take more than ten days to clear.

   Closer to home, at this time Muyou killed this player, and this guy wisely didn't resurrect nearby, so only him and the Headless Horseman were left on the scene.

  【The Headless Horseman realizes that you have robbed his prey, he becomes furious, raises his spear flat, and rides his horse to kill you again...】

   It would be much easier to have only one headless horseman left, no matter how high the level is, it is just a wild monster. Mu You has also broken through level 20 now, there is no level suppression, and it is midnight now, with the vampire skin doubled attributes, it is not too easy to fight a monster of the same level.

  【...After a fierce battle, you killed the headless horseman with one claw. Amid the neighing of the undead horse, the headless horseman fell to the ground with his horse and man, and there was no more sound. 】

  【You killed the headless horseman, experience value +23. 】

  【You found the ‘Assault Bone Gun’*1 and the ‘Suspicious Fluorescent Badge Fragment’*1 at the place where the Headless Horseman died. 】

[Charging Bone Spear: A knight gun made of undead bones. When holding the bone gun, you can activate the ability 'Charge' to charge towards a target in your sight, causing damage to the first target encountered on the path , the damage depends on the difference in strength between the two sides and the charge distance. If it hits the front of the target, the target will be knocked into the air; Immune to control effects during the charging process, there is a five-second cooldown after each charging, and can be used up to ten times a day. 】

   After killing this elite monster, something really happened!

  Charging Bone Spear, a rare prop with a blue name, is very valuable, and the effect is very eye-catching. It directly inherits the charging ability of the headless horseman just now!

   Charge once every five seconds, and can also be immune to control during the process, which is quite practical whether it is used to attack or escape.

   Killing a monster will reveal a rare item, this wave of blood earns!

   Putting away the bone gun, Mu You looked at the second trophy.

  【Suspicious fluorescent badge fragments: one corner of a six-pointed star, with some familiar dusty fluorescent scattered on it. Always dropped on death. You noticed some faint fluctuations coming from the inside of the badge, which seems to hide some information, but only this piece of fragment cannot be displayed, maybe you need to collect more badge fragments and put them together into a complete six-pointed star to read the contents . 】

  A badge fragment, this thing just dropped out of the same kind of thing after the death of Veda, and two pieces fell out at a time, in addition to a 'fluorescent lens'.

  【Fluorescent lens: A cheap magic toy, through the viewing angle of the lens, you can clearly distinguish objects and creatures with fluorescent powder on their bodies. 】

A special lens for distinguishing fluorescence, seeing this thing, plus the two pieces of fluorescent fragments that fell out in front, it is obvious that this Veda is specially collecting this kind of emblem fragments, this lens is used by him to distinguish which wild monster Tools that carry such fragments.

  What caught Mu You's attention was that in the description of this badge fragment, it was mentioned that 'there are some familiar dusty fluorescent lights scattered on it'.

   Familiar?

  Combining the two entries of dust and fluorescence, Mu You's first reaction was the 'lucky dust' dropped by goblins and fairies, which is also the only thing related to fluorescence on his body.

   Is this thing related to fairies and fairies?

   Mu You was a little interested, and he immediately planned to find a few more pieces, and put them together first to have a look.

  【You set off with fluorescent lenses. 】

  【Through the perspective of the lens, you can clearly see the fluorescent powder hidden in the surrounding environment and creatures. 】

   Mu You wandered around patiently, waiting for the prompt to appear.

   After about ten minutes, he finally found the first fluorescent undead.

  【You see a row of skeleton soldiers wandering in groups in the darkness on the street ahead. Through the perspective of the lens, you can see a fluorescent glow under the ribs of one of the skeleton soldiers, which is very conspicuous among the ordinary undead. 】

   There really are!

   And this time it's not an elite monster, but an ordinary little skeleton, which shows that not only high-level monsters explode this thing.

  Mu You didn't hesitate, and directly clicked on the 'Extendable Chain Claw'.

  【You hid in the darkness and threw the retractable chain claw towards a group of skeleton troops in the distance. 】

  【The chain claw pierces the air, accurately hits the fluorescent skeleton among the skeletons, and brings it back to you. 】

  【You released Arcane Missiles, Holy Light... Skeleton soldiers turned into fly ash under the light of the Holy Light. 】

  【You killed a skeleton soldier (level 12), experience value +12, you found a 'suspicious fluorescent badge fragment'*1 at the place where the skeleton soldier died. 】

  【You run away before the other undead surround you...】

   Sure enough, the fluorescent mobs exploded successfully!

   Next, Mu You followed suit and soon collected two more pieces.

   At this point, six fragments were obtained, and Mu You immediately tried to splice them together.

  【You put the six badge fragments together, the gaps between the fragments are automatically glued, and after a burst of faint brilliance, a complete six-pointed star badge is condensed. 】

  【You got the badge of bravery (land)! 】

  【The moment the badges are put together, the hidden information will automatically unfold in your mind. 】

  【This is actually a distress letter from a fairy princess! 】

  【The Village of the Brave, as the name suggests, is a village rich in brave men. Under the guardianship of the brave men, this place has maintained peace and tranquility all year round. But under the long-term peace, the brave also gradually forgot their responsibilities, and even forgot their identity as brave. 】

[I don't know when, a demon king who was once sealed quietly woke up in the Tower of the Brave. The Demon King occupied the Tower of the Brave and transformed it into the territory of the Demon King. The 50th floor of the tower. 】

  【The Fairy Princess couldn’t escape, so she had to ask the outside world for help. In order to avoid being discovered by the devil, she made fragments of the badge of the brave with special dust that can attract the undead, and hid the distress message inside. Pick up the undead, and then the undead will spread the distress information to the hands of the brave all over the world...]

   "Fairy...princess?"

  Mu You looked strange, could this be the pigeon fairy?

   By the way, this way of asking for help is also unique, and they actually plan to spread the distress letter to all over the world by the undead, what dandelion?

   Shaking his head, Mu You continued to look down.

  【Badge of the brave: Proof of the brave. The brave is not a kind of person, but a brave and fearless spirit. Those who get the badge of the brave are the brave. It is the natural mission of the brave to defeat the devil and protect the peace of the mainland! 】

  【You have obtained the badge of the brave, you have triggered the hidden main task: The devil is roaring! 】

  【Task Content: Accept the call of the Fairy Princess, enter the Tower of the Brave as a brave man, defeat layers of monsters, rush to the fifty floors, and rescue the Fairy Princess. 】

  【Task time: unlimited. 】

  【Task Reward: The first brave man to reach the 50th floor will be blessed by the Fairy Princess. (After the task is completed, the task will be automatically converted into the main task of the whole server: the trial of the tower of the brave!)]

   Yes, it turned into a task directly, and it was still a 'main task'.

   That is to say, this thing is just a simple distress letter for people of other races, but for the fools, it has become an unavoidable task, and all the fools who get the badge will come to do this task.

In other words, this task is still in the 'hidden' stage, which is equivalent to the internal test of the game. It is only open to a small number of people who have picked up the badge. According to the instructions later, if someone rescues the fairy princess, this task will automatically be transferred to the full server. Quest, when the time comes, all players can come here to climb the tower?

   Mu You didn't understand for a while, what kind of magical power this tower has, it is worth climbing for all players in the server.

  No matter what, he must take this task right now. Whether it is to rescue the pigeon fairy or find clues to the demon god, this task is a must for him.

   Next, Mu You continued on his way and went straight to the village of the brave.

   After more than two hours of cutting melons and vegetables, he arrived at the place.

  【You have entered, the village of the brave. 】

[This is a village with beautiful mountains and clear waters, singing birds and flowers, in stark contrast to the barren land eroded by the corroded surface. The surrounding undead also stopped at the border of the village, not daring to step into the village, making this place look like the end of the world The only pure land surrounded by corpses. 】

   Mu You was taken aback for a moment, the undead couldn't enter this place... Could it be because of the 'devil god'?

  【Entering the village, you walk along the path in the village, and soon you come to the Tower of the Brave. 】

  【You see that under the Tower of the Brave, more than 2,000 fools have gathered. Like you, they all hold a badge of the brave, and they seem to be waiting for something. As for the tower of the brave in front of it, the gate at the bottom of the tower is closed tightly at this moment. 】

  【Note: Fighting is strictly prohibited in the Village of the Brave, otherwise you will be disqualified as a Brave and expelled from the Village of the Brave. 】

  More than two thousand people...

  Mu You is speechless, have so many people already received this task?

  However, for such a large-scale task, you should be able to see some news on the forum...

  Thinking of this, Mu You switched to the forum and took a look.

  On the homepage of the forum, no matter whether it is the domestic or international forum, there is no relevant news for the time being.

   Mu You switched to the Indonesian region section to take a look. After all, most of the players receiving this task are from the Indonesian region.

   As expected this time!

  In the Indonesian forum, there are obviously more posts with the word "brave".

   Mu You flipped through it briefly, and found that this task hadn't been started for long, and the earliest post was only sent out this Friday afternoon.

   And this time is exactly the opening time of City of Eternal Night...

  In other words, this mission only officially appeared after all the twelve sky cities were born?

   Mu You quickly browsed through several related posts, and drew some conclusions from them.

  First, the opening hours of the Tower of the Brave are from 4 am to 4 pm every day.

  Second, the Tower of the Brave has a total of 100 floors. Every person who holds a badge can enter twice a day for free. If you want to enter again later, you need to spend 100 years of life to buy tickets each time.

  Third, one of the posts mentioned that after entering the Tower of the Brave, all 'unreal power' will be unavailable.

  What is the 'unreal power' here, the post is vague, it just mentions that all magic seems to be unusable.

   Mu You frowned and continued to scroll down. Unfortunately, perhaps because the opening time was too short, there was not even a piece of content that could be called a guide in the entire forum. It was all very scattered and chaotic information.

  Of course, after all, this mission has been open for two days, and there are four opportunities to enter it. It is impossible to say that those experts in Indonesia have not yet discovered the mechanism.

Obviously, the small number of people who know the situation do not intend to disclose the information, and even block the information on purpose. After all, this task is competitive in nature. Whoever climbs to the 50th floor first will get the only one. For a reward, the less people notice it, the better.

   Mu You breathed out, it seemed that the strategy was hopeless, and he had to figure it out by himself.

  Mu You returned to the game. It is now past 3:50 in the morning, and there are still a few minutes before the opening of the Tower of the Brave.

   Having nothing to do during this time, Mu You manipulated the characters to wander around the village.

  【You were walking around the Tower of the Brave to observe the situation, when a fool dressed as a businessman suddenly stopped you. 】

  【You turned your head and saw that the fool had placed a container on the flat ground. Inside the container were dozens of six-pointed star badges, but most of them seemed to have different colors from the brave badge in your hand. 】

  【"Brother, are you the Brave of the Earth? Do you need to change the badge of the brave?" The Fool Merchant rubbed his hands and looked at the badge in your hand and asked. 】

   "Hero of the Earth?"

   Mu You was taken aback, and then remembered that the badge he got just now seemed to have a suffix (地)...

   Are there different categories of these badges?

  Mu You manipulated the character to check the opponent's container.

  However, the name given back surprised him.

  【Brave Emblem (Fire), Brave Emblem (Water), Brave Emblem (Star), Brave Emblem (Month)...】

  In his container, there are a total of nine types of brave badges, the suffixes are: earth, water, fire, wind, thunder, light, star, moon, and darkness.

   Seeing these suffixes for the first time, Mu You felt very familiar.

  Because he had just seen something similar in the group of city masters yesterday—isn’t this just the attribute of several sky city gods?
