Gu Fei might have said that, but the reason he dared to come to Adrian was because he already had confidence in himself.
Humans wanted to turn into werewolves, either through magic or tools. When Adrian turned into a werewolf, there was a strange thing on his neck. Gu Fei concluded that it was the necklace that helped him turn into a werewolf.
When he met Adrian before, Gu Fei remembered that there was nothing on his neck. This meant that this was not a necklace that could be worn casually, but a necklace that would turn the werewolf the moment it was worn. As long as Adrian didn't have the chance to wear the necklace, he wouldn't be able to turn into a werewolf. Then, he would be a normal human. It was that simple.
Gu Fei went through his plan again and felt that it was foolproof. Adrian's house was right in front of him.
Gu Fei stretched his hand forward, took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
Adrian opened the door. Gu Fei looked at his neck again. It was empty.
"Oh, my dear warrior, you're here." Adrian said the same thing.
Gu Fei threw the bag of gold that he found in Murphy's place. "I already know what happened to you. This is the gold that Murphy hid. I think he used it as bait to lure you out, right? You must have been looking for it for a long time. "
This was not a meaningless move. NPCs belonged to a special group. You could interact with them casually, but if the system judged it as an attack that would cause your HP to drop, then the NPC would be like an individual in a safe zone. Attacks would be ineffective. Therefore, Gu Fei had to at least make Adrian an NPC that he could kill.
Adrian's expression changed as soon as the gold was tossed onto the table.
"The werewolves have already told me everything. I know that you're the one behind this. You know their identity and that they don't want to get into trouble with humans, so you used them to work for you for free. Despicable! "Gu Fei thought to himself. I'm actually giving a robot a lesson in morality.
"Surrender!" Gu Fei took out the Flame Baptism.
Adrian suddenly turned and ran, but Gu Fei was prepared. He wouldn't let Adrian have any free time, even if it was just a few seconds. A necklace was enough.
Adrian evaded with a swing of his blade. He was fairly agile, but he was still far from being comparable to the werewolves. He was only at the level of a bandit leader, Suetu.
"Little Yu! Block the back door! "Gu Fei shouted.
"Got it!" Xiao Yu was already in position. Before Gu Fei and Adrian had a falling-out, she had already blocked the exit according to Gu Fei's instructions.
Only in such a narrow space like the room could he force his opponent to wear the necklace. Gu Fei had already practiced this method in the hotel last night. The lobby of the inn was about the same size as Adrian's house.
As he executed his Saber Technique, layers of heatwaves from the Baptism of Fire reverberated in the room. Amidst the bright red saber light, the silver line on the blade became very eye-catching. Under Gu Fei's relentless assault, Adrian could only dodge.
"F * ck!!!" Ye Xiaowu, who was admiring Gu Fei's quest from a thousand miles away, couldn't help but roar when he saw Gu Fei rush to the last checkpoint. They had indeed designed a necklace for Adrian that would transform once he wore it, but they didn't expect it to become a loophole. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, Ye Xiaowu wouldn't have believed that someone could prevent Adrian from even having the chance to wear the necklace.
Even though the quest chain was measured by the completion rate of the storyline, there would usually be a high difficulty battle interspersed within. After all, battles were the main focus of the game.
In Gu Fei's quest chain, the final battle with the werewolf was like the final boss of a game. To defeat it, having strength was obviously the easiest way. Other than that, waiting for an opportunity to destroy the werewolf's necklace, or persistently stalling for time until the necklace's effects wore off. These were all tricks that could be devised when the werewolf couldn't be defeated directly. But none of them didn't even give Adrian a chance to transform at the start. And Gu Fei had undoubtedly done it.
This way, the final boss' strength would be greatly reduced. Currently, Adrian's skill was a shrunken version of Suetu. His speed wasn't any slower than Suetu's, and he had shrunken his attack and defense.
"Wait! Wait! " Adrian, who was already covered in wounds, shouted loudly. After all, he was still a boss. He wasn't killed by Gu Fei in one hit like a cowardly mortal. Even after taking quite a few hits, he still had the strength to jump around.
Gu Fei didn't stop. What if this was his opponent's trick to make him stop and then instantly take out the necklace to transform?
"Do you know what you're doing? You're helping the mutated race kill your own kind! " Adrian shouted as he ran, "What are they? They're werewolves, savage werewolves!"
Gu Fei was depressed. Why was it that in the blink of an eye, the robot was giving him a moral lesson?
"Let me go. Half of the wealth in my cellar is yours!" Adrian shouted.
What answered him was a flash of a blade.
"All of it is yours!" Adrian continued to shout.
What answered him was still the flash of a blade.
Gu Fei didn't show any mercy. Finally, Adrian couldn't take it anymore and fell to the ground. He shouted hoarsely, "You idiot!"
His hand rose and the blade fell. The world, became quiet.
Ye Xiaowu stared blankly at the screen. His last little trick didn't fool Gu Fei. The game designer, when Adrian's health dropped to 1/5, he would start to bewitch him with words.
If the players thought that this was a possible reward for the quest and let their guard down, Adrian would use the opportunity to get the treasure in the cellar to escape.
This was a hard rule in the program. The players couldn't change this storyline, so Adrian would definitely disappear.
Even if the final conspirator escaped, the quest would still be considered completed, but the completion rate would only be 80%.
"This guy …" Ye Xiaowu muttered to himself. Because the surveillance system didn't have voice, Ye Xiaowu couldn't hear what Gu Fei said after killing Adrian: "You're the idiot! If I kill you, won't the wealth in your cellar be mine too? "
"It's done!!!" After killing Adrian, Little Rain cheered.
Gu Fei pulled up the quest window to take a look. The quest was still there, so there was probably some follow-up work. At least until now, he hadn't received any EXP reward yet.
He searched Adrian's body and found a necklace in his arms. "Wolf King's Tooth. Equipment effect: Transform into a Werewolf Lord, lasts for 15 minutes, cooldown of 60 minutes. "
Gu Fei excitedly picked it up and wanted to try it out, but he received a system notification: Quest item, player can't use it.
This was extremely rare in the 'parallel world'. Even if a Mage couldn't wear a Warrior's armor, they could still wear it on their body and press them down. Gu Fei had never experienced something like this that couldn't be worn on his neck.
Little Rain wanted to take a look, but Gu Fei was forced to stop when he handed it to her.
"It said it's a quest item," Gu Fei said helplessly.
"Oh!"
"Let's look through it again." Gu Fei bent down and continued to look through Adrian's corpse: "Look for the key to the cellar in the back. There's a lot of money there."
The key was indeed hanging on Adrian's waist. The two excitedly went to the backyard, opened the cellar, and climbed down.
There was indeed a lot of wealth, but it was like the gold in Murphy's sack. The gold was really gold, but in the game, no one knew where to exchange it for game currency. The two looked at each other.
"What do we do?" Little Rain asked.
"Can this be exchanged for money?" Gu Fei asked.
"I don't think so." The gold in Little Rain's hands could only be exchanged for the quest reward, and it wasn't clear if the reward would be money.
A cellar full of gold, but it couldn't be exchanged for normal currency. It was an extremely painful thing.
Even if he wanted to take it all away, it was impossible. Gold was already extremely heavy, and even the sack from before had to be carried by Little Rain. Gu Fei could only carry it three steps at most.
"Forget it!" Gu Fei sighed.
Little Yu muttered, "Not gold, it's trash; not gold, it's trash; not gold, it's trash …"
The two left the cellar, and Gu Fei took the Wolf King's Tooth to the village chief and told him what had happened.
"It's all Adrian's doing. He used this thing to become a werewolf, intimidated the villagers into working for him, and even killed Murphy." Gu Fei kept his promise and didn't say that half of the village was werewolves.
"What a bad guy." The village chief said, "It's all thanks to you, warrior. You solved a huge crisis in our village. To express my gratitude …" The village chief turned around and went through the cupboard.
Gu Fei was excited. The reward was coming, and his hard work wasn't in vain.
"Take this robe!" The village chief turned back and handed Gu Fei a robe, a mage robe.
Gu Fei was extremely disappointed. He had only prepared a mage robe to disguise his identity, but after such a hard quest chain, he was actually given a mage robe. Wasn't this a waste? Gu Fei really hated the mage profession. He guessed that the quest rewards were based on the profession. If he was a thief, he would have been given a thief's cloak.
"Take it!" The village chief said again. Little Rain was anxious: "Hurry up and take it, what are you doing?"
Gu Fei took it with a bitter face and casually glanced at it.
The Moonlight Spirit Robe didn't have outstanding defense, which was a common trait of mage robes. In addition, it had + 20 Intelligence, + 1 Spell Proficiency, and + 10% Spell Attack Damage.
"What's Spell Proficiency?" Gu Fei asked as he showed it to Little Rain.
Little Rain also shook her head blankly.
It either added Intelligence or Spell Proficiency. It was obviously a branded mage robe, but for him … Gu Fei sighed. No matter what, it was much better than a beginner's robe. Just the defense alone was high! No matter what, it was still a piece of Gold equipment. Gu Fei thought about it and put it on. He was completely black, reflecting the characteristics of the "Night" brand.
"It looks evil," Little Rain commented.
Gu Fei was helpless, but then he realized that the village chief had already given out the reward, but the Wolf King's Fang didn't take it. Gu Fei looked at it. It was still a quest item. Oh, could it be that if he showed it to the werewolves, he could exchange it for another reward? Gu Fei's hope was reignited.
