Seeing the old man's sage-like demeanor and white beard, Sky Law Berserk started to believe him.
"Is that him?" Thunder God Berserk pointed at the old man and asked.
"Hey, hey, hey, boss, be more respectful …" Everyone hurriedly pressed Thunder God Berserk's finger down.
NPCs had a favorability system towards players. This kind of pointing at someone's nose and talking like this was a taboo.
What if this old man was a peerless master or something? Wouldn't that be even more embarrassing? After all, in other books, this old man was a big stubble who lived in a cave or a ring. Of course, those who lived in the library were not good people either.
Wuji coldly said, "Nonsense, don't you see the words' Librarian 'on top of this old man's head?"
Sure enough, there was a line of words on top of the old man's hat, "Librarian (Thunderstorm City)"
"…" Thunder God Berserk gritted his teeth and turned to the librarian, "I want to buy clues."
"Okay." The old man looked up at Thunder God Berserk and said with a smile, "One question starts at 100, no bargaining. Since your main city's honor is too low, the system will automatically deduct."
The first thing NPCs looked at players was the main city's honor. The main city's honor was a hidden attribute that was difficult to farm. Since Ironrock Castle had been lost to Sky Law Berserk once, the default Thunderstorm City honor for Sky Law Berserk's players was very low.
"So damn expensive?" Thunder God Berserk shouted.
"Damn expensive is not within my scope of understanding. Next question, please. "The old man said with a smile.
"Pfft …" Everyone in Quanzhen choked on the spot, especially To Place One's Pride, who laughed the loudest.
This old man was really bad. He even scolded people in a roundabout way. It seemed like he was definitely not a decent NPC.
"Damn, this is the first question?" Thunder God Berserk saw that 100 gold soldiers were gone and was so angry that he almost turned into a Fire Mage.
"Okay, next question, please." The old man nodded and another 100 disappeared.
"Hahahaha." To Place One's Pride laughed so hard that tears came out.
"You're also from Quanzhen, right?" Thunder God Berserk raised his hand and threw a lightning bolt at the old man. The old man snapped his fingers, and the lightning bolt summoned by Thunder God Berserk shrank back and disappeared without a trace. At the same time, a damage of -356 floated up above Thunder God Berserk's head.
System Notification: Malicious Attack NPC, City Honor -20.
"F * ck!" Seeing this scene, everyone's jaws dropped. Thunder God's character wasn't very good, but he could be considered one of the top experts in Thunder City. His equipment was luxurious, and it was not inferior to the pro players.
With just a snap of his fingers, the old man was able to counter the Berserk Thunder God's magic. It seemed that his level was not low.
"This old man is called Lei Nuo. I don't know what Quanzhen is," the old man said in a dignified manner. The white beard on his face fluttered even though there was no wind.
"Reynolds, that name sounds familiar." Everyone was slightly startled when they heard the old man's words. Then, they mumbled, "Great Wizard Reynolds?"
"That's right, it's me. One hundred gold per person." The old man smiled slightly, his old face like a chrysanthemum. Everyone's bags were reduced by one hundred gold.
"…"
Once the old man said this, everyone became silent again. They didn't even notice that one hundred gold had disappeared from their bags.
One of the Seven Heroes, Great Wizard Reynolds, was actually in Thunder Storm City …
Anyone who read the game's background would know that Great Wizard Reynolds' hometown was in Thunder Storm City. However, the Mages who came because of his fame had never seen Reynolds. The Mage in Reynolds' house was called Rennes, and he was Reynolds' disciple …
Although Rennes was also a Legendary NPC, he was still lacking something compared to Reynolds. Therefore, even the local players of Thunder Storm City suspected that Reynolds wasn't really in Thunder Storm City.
Never would they have thought that this mysterious guy was actually hiding in the Mage Academy's library.
After a full half a minute, everyone came back to their senses. Thunder God Berserk opened his mouth again, "I …"
Before Thunder God Berserk could finish, he was dragged to the back by Moonless Thunder and the others.
This guy's mouth was too big. Now that he had angered Great Wizard Reynolds, would he still want to accept hidden quests in the future?
"Teacher Reynolds, I would like to ask you something," Moonless Thunder said respectfully as he stepped forward.
"The starting price is one hundred gold. No haggling …" Reynolds repeated the same line. He then instructed, "Young man, think carefully before you ask."
Reynolds's words moved Moonless Thunder to tears. He thought to himself, As expected of one of the Seven Heroes. He cares for the people of the world. He's different from those scamming NPCs outside. This guy had completely forgotten that he had just been scammed of one hundred gold.
After thinking for a moment, Moonless Thunder said, "I want all the storyline related to Atlan."
"One hundred thousand gold. You don't have enough money." Reynolds's words completely crushed Moonless Thunder.
When Quanzhen and the others asked about the storyline, the Atlan setting had not been released yet. Just a few words had already cost two thousand gold. Now that the Atlan setting had been released and the background storyline had been unlocked, a price of one hundred thousand gold was indeed not high.
Moonless Thunder wiped his sweat and said, "Then I'll just ask for information related to Atlan's radiance."
"Two thousand gold. You don't have enough money," Reynolds said.
"…" Moonless Thunder silently took the money pouch from the Berserk Thunder God and placed it before Reynolds.
Reynolds casually waved his hand, and the money pouch disappeared. He calmly explained.
Atlan's radiance was a sacred relic of the Atlan tribe. In ancient times, before Atlan City sank into the Dark Sea, the prophet of the Atlan tribe had already foreseen the coming calamity. Thus, the Atlan tribe divided the radiance into six parts and brought them to the six Hidden Lands by the six most outstanding Atlans to avoid the calamity and continue the tribe.
Now that Atlan City had seen the light of day again, the radiance of Atlan shone once more, and the horn had sounded. After collecting the six parts and returning them to the current Atlan tribe leader, the Atlan tribe would once again reappear on the reborn continent.
"Who is the current Atlan tribe leader?" Moonless Thunder asked, puzzled.
"Me." Reynolds pointed to himself.
-100 gold.
"Where are the six Hidden Lands?" Moonless Thunder asked again.
Reynolds said, "Only the prophet of the Atlan tribe knows."
-100 gold.
"Where is the prophet?"
"There are many prophets in this world. You have to tell me his name."
The funds were burning.
"What is the name of the prophet of Atlan?" Moonless Thunder asked helplessly once more. The System was trying to collect Gold Coins. Fortunately, Moonless Thunder was not short of money. Otherwise, he would not have been able to ask.
