The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 22: ?Ike·Shaoya
Exactly as expected from Delicious Wind Goose.
After showing off his strength last night, the people from "Big Cousin" came to him immediately early this morning.
Their initial conversation went very smoothly indeed.
After all, the original management of "Big Cousin" was very loose and not a strict organization. As long as it is confirmed that they are interested and have no intention of joining other organizations, the negotiation is over.
The organizational form of "Big Cousin" is actually loose on the outside and tight on the inside. There is no fear of spies sneaking in - after all, if you are just a peripheral member, you will hardly have access to any information, and your work will be in vain.
Who can become an internal member does not depend on what they do... but is directly determined by the "big brother" as the leader. Their identities are even completely confidential, and even other outside members don't know which members of their family are inside members.
But the strange thing is that the internal members are as monolithic. Not to mention the hidden stakes that sneaked in in advance, or the bribed young men.
Many people believe that Big Brother himself may be - or there is at least one great wizard who is proficient in the prophet school and the soul-stealing school around him, so he can manage the organization so tightly.
However, what Delicious Wind Goose didn’t expect was...
After they roughly finished talking about "joining Big Cousin".
The person who came to talk to them suddenly changed the subject after confirming that they were willing to join Big Cousin, and very seriously asked for delicious wind goose or for all of them to go to the fortress.
You’ll find out after you ask Delicious Wind Goose.
It is said that "Big Brother" told the group before they left - if Delicious Wind Goose is willing to join them, she can be directly promoted to a core member. The three people who came together with the delicious wind goose can also be called internal members.
…but why?
Players have questions.
If they had just arrived in the Misty Continent not long ago, they might have thought that the player's protagonist halo had worked - but now they have all gained confidence in themselves, knowing that it would be good if they could play a supporting role. Now...
But they have never met Big Brother at all.
They even knew that they came to Nata County with ulterior motives.
How can someone like this be directly recruited into the core of the organization without ever seeing him before?
If the other party can really predict the future, will they not know their purpose?
Finally, the players discussed it.
Their conclusion was not to spread out.
It would be better to be defeated in one fell swoop than to be defeated individually - even though they can kill them at any time, they can still pay the price and teleport away at any time if they step back ten thousand steps. But Nata County is not a safe place after all... Even if a lonely person gets the nameplate of "Big Cousin", if he is not smart enough, he may still not be able to handle the basic necessities of life.
So although they felt a little bad, they still went to the "Big Cousin" base together in the end.
And successfully met "Big Brother".
What surprised them was that... one of the most powerful people in Nata County was actually not a wizard.
The Tasty Wind Geese are all ready to face dark spellcasters like Gul'dan.
It turned out to be Gul'dan.
But it was Gul'dan who took off his clothes——
"Here, you can call me 'Big Brother'. You can also call me directly by my name, Ike Burning Fang."
The person who spoke was a strong man with golden curly hair.
He was holding a cigar in his mouth and his voice was very calm and magnetic.
Ike wore a yellow linen gown with sleeves rolled up to the elbows, and a gray-white vest with many pockets. This outfit looks like an engineer and a reporter.
His skin was bronze, and the exposed skin was covered in scars. His muscles are extremely strong, and his body shape is about the same size as Delicious Wind Goose, or even more exaggerated - an inverted triangle figure like a superhero comic.
And he is a head taller than Delicious Wind Goose, about 1.9 meters tall, and his arms are extremely stable.
His arms look like those of a sailor...the kind who loves spinach.
But what is most familiar to Yummy Feng Goose is that Ike Burning Tooth's pupils look like flowing lava, with a "bright dark red" feeling. When he breathes, he also spits out a light white mist that smells like sulfur.
——The most important thing is that there is a very heavy gold chain hanging around Ike Zhuoya's neck. It looks like a bunch of mahjong tiles.
...With this kind of body shape, could he be a soul-stealing wizard or a prophet wizard?
Delicious Wind Goose is convinced that he can kill the monster teacher with one punch!
Except Andersen, who might need three punches to kill him, the three of them obviously couldn't punch him enough.
More importantly...
——Delicious Wind Goose has seen this surname before, in his nightmare.
That was his nightmare of becoming a transcendent.
There, he once met a destructive wizard named "Arthur Burning Fang".
His pupils and the smell of sulfur in his breath are very similar to the man named Ike in front of him!
"Don't worry, I'm not a wizard."
Ike, who calls himself "Big Brother", grins and blows out a plume of white smoke that smells like cigar and sulfur. The strong smell of cinnamon almost covers up the smell of sulfur...
But as it happens, the delicious goose has a very keen sense of smell.
"I can't tell you my specific profession. But I'm definitely not a wizard."
Ike Zhuoya smiled deeply and spoke in a magnetic bass: "I think you must be very curious. I am not a wizard, how can I judge whether you are trustworthy?"
No, I'm not curious at all.
We are just here to mess around, brother...
Delicious Wind Goose was thinking in the bottom of my heart.
But there was no expression on his face, he just nodded slowly.
With his body shape, which is about the same size as Ike, and the silver bracelet on his wrist, he still looks very intimidating if he doesn't talk and pretends to be cool.
"To tell you the truth, this is a ritual we performed, and it is also a large-scale man-made nightmare created by me."
Ike said slowly: "I need you, Delicious Wind Goose. You are a silver-level transcendent who has just advanced, or a ritualist who has seen the true god. The most important thing is that you are not a wizard... You fit the bill perfectly. The victory conditions for this ritual."
Why can't it be a wizard?
Why me?
Delicious Wind Goose is suspicious.
But he didn't ask any more questions.
Presumably the other party won’t say it either.
"So, what should I do?"
Delicious Wind Goose said simply.
"Don't worry...you will know when the time comes."
Ike grinned, showing an unabashedly happy smile.
Three hours later.
The four of them were respectfully invited into a luxurious villa with the "key" provided by Ike.
Of course, this luxury is relative.
Compared with the villas they had seen in the capital, it was naturally inferior.
But in Nata County... Delicious Wind Goose believes that this may be the best thing that Ike or "Big Brother" can come up with.
Ike's request is that they can try to purify the nightmare he personally designed - it would be best if they can pass the level.
...What exactly are they going to do?
How did he do it, artificially create nightmares?
Isn't it possible that I'm not a wizard? Can I do this?
And what exactly does this mean?
Delicious Wind Goose was very puzzled.
Looks like some kind of conspiracy. But the other party was too frank, which made them a little undecided.
And...
That's a nightmare!
It is the element of a teleportation point and can also give experience and level rewards...
And the nightmare itself is quite interesting.
Still a little greedy.
And because of their extraordinary courage as players, they do not intend to back down before trying.
After all... they can be resurrected at will.
After the players discussed it, they planned to let the three of them enter the nightmare to see for themselves.
If everything goes well, you can also use this to open the teleportation point.
Of course, just in case... they can't all enter the nightmare.
They left the only cleric, the monster teacher, to keep vigil.
Youkai Teacher’s duty ~IndoMTL.com~ is not to protect his comrades.
——But when the enemy attacks, strike first to gain the upper hand. Killed all his teammates.
He is a priest of the righteous God, and there is no way to control him.
But if the extraordinary person's carrying object is stolen... he will lose most of his extraordinary abilities instantly.
Although they thought that there was no need to be plotted, and there was no point worth being kidnapped - there was a high probability that Ike was at the gold level, and even if he wasn't... it wouldn't be difficult to deal with them.
But this is Nata County after all.
Never trust others easily.
"Are you ready?"
Look at each other with Dove and Andersen.
"Don't worry, I'm watching."
The monster teacher patted his gun and said solemnly: "I think you'd better start a live broadcast. Let the free players take a look at it for you, and you can also keep records or something."
"That makes sense."
Yishifeng Goose nodded and started the live broadcast calmly.
He then put the metal bracelet that looked like handcuffs, but there was no link between the two, on his wrist, and then leaned back.
This is the first time that players have entered an unexplored nightmare by actively using the "Dream Key" as a prop -
Listen to Ike.
This seems to be a nightmare to be able to form a team... or some other similar mode.
A nightmare that three people can enter together——
"This seems to be called... fighting a nightmare together."
The delicious wind goose murmured, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.
His first reaction was: This big brother didn’t trick me, but it turned out to be a nightmare?
Between sleeping and waking up, he felt that his limbs were tightly bound by an inexplicable force. It was like being handcuffed to a cold chair.
——Suddenly, he trembled and woke up.
