If they had not seen it with their own eyes, probably no one would have known that Yu Huicheng's most knowledgeable NPC was actually a non-intelligent NPC. Moreover, the location of this NPC was also very familiar to everyone — the library.
In the far corner of the library, there was a skinny guy wearing glasses. He was holding a book that was heavier than his body in his hands.
This guy's name was also very simple and crude — "Librarian."
"F * ck! How the f * ck is that possible? Old Cow, don't tell me you've been fooled, "Wuji said somewhat incredulously.
Yu Huicheng had a sea of powerful NPCs, but no one would have thought that the person he was looking for would actually be like this. Just from the name alone, one could tell that this was an NPC that could be mass-produced, just like the system guards, the kind of NPC that every main city had.
"I don't think so. He's the GM …" Wang Yu's words were also not very confident. After all, exploration missions were generally opened by intelligent NPCs, and such a high-level exploration mission like Atlan needed to be opened by a non-intelligent NPC. This was too unreasonable.
Wang Yu also understood why 9527 said that there was nothing wrong with his second question. A mere functional NPC was just like asking the GM where to buy weapons, this was a question that had to be answered …
Spring Xiang said, "Don't underestimate the librarian … Old Taoist, the Shaolin Temple's Divine Sweeping Monk all do this, and even the current emperor …"
"F * ck, shut up …" Everyone was shocked.
"Why don't we just ask and find out!" To Place One's Pride looked at everyone contemptuously, then walked over to ask the librarian, "May I ask if you know the key to Atlan?"
"The question depends on the value. The starting price is one hundred gold coins! Answering this question will cost you one hundred gold coins. " To Place One's Pride finished asking, the librarian threw out such a sentence with a smile, shocking everyone present.
The non-intelligent NPC's way of scamming people was indeed unusually simple and crude. They all clearly marked the price … and it was so f * cking expensive — one hundred gold coins! Most players in the game now only had this amount of money.
It couldn't be helped. Intelligent NPCs could still bargain and reason with them, but functional NPCs were just machines. There was no point in trying to reason with them.
To Place One's Pride looked at Wang Yu and Wuji, then took out a hundred gold coins and handed them over with trembling hands.
"Got it!" The librarian took the gold coin and said calmly.
To Place One's Pride opened his mouth, waiting for the administrator to continue. However, the administrator ignored To Place One's Pride after saying "I know".
"F * ck, that's all?" To Place One's Pride was furious.
"To answer this question, you'll have to pay 100 Gold Coins," the administrator said after glancing at To Place One's Pride.
"Sh * t!" To Place One's Pride was on the verge of collapsing … This damned system was too cheap, giving him such an answer with just a hundred gold coins.
"Are you stupid? Ask again!" Everyone pointed at To Place One's Pride and scolded. This idiot, still getting scammed after playing the game for so long. What a disgrace.
To Place One's Pride shook his head in pain, then took out another hundred gold coins and said, "Can you tell me the secret of the Atlan key?"
The administrator took the hundred gold coins and answered even more curtly than before, "Yes!"
"I!!!" To Place One's Pride was instantly enraged. He punched the administrator's head. A circle of blue light flashed, but the administrator didn't move an inch. To Place One's Pride was sent flying. Yu Huicheng's Honor -20.
"I don't believe it!" To Place One's Pride crawled up and wanted to continue asking, but Wang Yu grabbed him by the collar and threw him to the side.
Wuji walked over and said, "Tell me everything you know about the Atlan key."
The administrator glanced at Wuji and said calmly, "Answer this question, and you will have to pay a thousand gold coins!"
"Why don't you just rob someone?" To Place One's Pride jumped up and scolded. Competing with a machine, this kid was really too much.
The administrator looked at To Place One's Pride and said, "Answer this question, and you will have to pay a hundred gold coins …"
"…" To Place One's Pride was completely speechless.
Wuji ignored To Place One's Pride, then took out a thousand gold coins and handed it to the administrator.
The administrator took the gold coins and said very cooperatively, "The Atlanta Continent is an ancient ruin. Before the Dark Invasion, the Atlanta Continent's civil war broke out. It was located northwest of the Laurenx Mountain Range and was buried forever by the Netherworld Sea."
It was still a very short answer, but it had a lot more information than To Place One's Pride's three words.
First of all, Atlan was not a person's name, but a place. No wonder so many NPCs said that they had never heard of Atlan. Secondly, the address of Atlan was northwest of the Laurenx Mountain Range.
The Laurenx Mountain Range was the most famous mountain range in the background story of "Rebirth". This mountain range directly separated the Light Faction and the Dark Faction. The famous Ironrock Fortress was carved out of this mountain range.
However, no one had heard of the Netherworld Sea. In the known map of "Rebirth", there was no such place recorded.
"Where is the Netherworld Sea?" Wuji turned around and asked the administrator.
This time, the administrator did not ask for money. Instead, he shook his head and said, "Beyond the scope of your answer …"
Well, it seemed like the administrator of the library could not be used as a strategy machine. There were some high-end things that the administrator would not say even if you paid money.
This was reasonable. There were administrators in every main city. If everyone knew about the existence of the administrator, there would be a strategy for everything. Wouldn't the playability of the game be greatly reduced?
Swindling money was fine, but swindling players was not enough to keep them. The designer stocks of Longteng Corporation were indeed very cunning.
Since the administrator did not say, he could only look for it himself. Wuji spent a lot of money to buy the most complete version of the world map from the administrator.
A map in the real world might not be worth much, but in the game, there were no satellites or anything. The value of a map was extremely high. Only a group of people like Quanzhen, who did not lack money, could spend money so calmly.
There were two keywords in the message given by the administrator: the Laurenx Mountain Range and the Netherworld Sea.
In short, there were mountains and water. As long as he could find the sea near the Laurenx Mountain Range, it would be fine.
However, when Wuji searched along the Laurenx Mountain Range, he did not even see a lake … This was embarrassing.
"This is impossible. Could it be the movement of the earth's crust?" Wuji rubbed his chin and thought.
"Don't talk nonsense. The Laurenx Mountain Range has not changed for tens of thousands of years. Even if there is a movement of the earth's crust in this world, it is very slight … The Netherworld Sea is so big, how could it disappear?" Chun Xiang said with contempt.
"Let me see …" Wang Yu was a little unfamiliar with the topic of the two's discussion, so he asked Wuji for the map.
"Don't ruin it, Lao Gui!" Wuji carefully handed the map to Wang Yu and continued to discuss the movement of the earth's crust with Chun Xiang.
Wang Yu looked along the Laurenx Mountain Range for a while, then suddenly pointed to a main city and said, "Is this place the Netherworld Sea that we are looking for?"
