Chu Rui had never liked being weak, whether it was to himself or to others. In his opinion, being weak could make people lose their fighting spirit and be bullied. But now, he was very envious of the blacksmith uncle's daughter. He liked the blacksmith uncle's weakness. To be able to make such a man cry like rain, the blacksmith uncle's feelings for his daughter were really impeccable.
Being weak was not scary! Everyone had something they cared about in their heart. Even the strongest person would have his or her weak side. Showing one's weakness was not shameful. For the people you cared about, for the people you loved, even if you became weak, so what? At least it proved that he was not dead, and he still had the thing called "heart". Compared to some people who had a hypocritical smile and did things that were admirable on the surface, but were extremely dirty behind their backs, people like the blacksmith uncle were more respectable!
"Blacksmith uncle, don't worry, I will help you fulfill this wish, absolutely!"
Looking at the blacksmith uncle's dark face, Chu Rui felt that it was so shining, so holy. Walking in the darkness for a long time, even if he still strictly adhered to himself and bound himself with morality, he was still a human and not a bloodthirsty demon who only knew how to kill. But after killing for a long time, his heart gradually began to become numb.
Nowadays, people lived in steel cities, wearing fake masks when they went out, and cold walls when they returned home, locking themselves in small houses. Without intimate communication for a long time, people became isolated, and their hearts became numb. Every day, there was only that numb and simple life, going to work, getting off work, going home, that was all. Life was rich, but spiritually, people became wanderers and gradually lost themselves.
It was extremely difficult to move a person whose heart had become numb. The blacksmith uncle's dedication to his daughter touched Chu Rui's heartstrings. At this moment, he solemnly agreed to the blacksmith's request. He wasn't thinking about the quest, nor was he thinking about receiving any rewards from the blacksmith. He simply wanted to help the blacksmith. He wanted to help a lonely man who had lost his wife in his early years and his daughter in his later years.
"Thank you, thank you!" The blacksmith uncle was sobbing uncontrollably. After a while, he finally calmed himself down. He silently took out a hoe from the corner and said to Chu Rui, "My family has been blacksmiths for generations. We don't have any skills, and we don't have anything good. Take this pickaxe as a thank you gift! "
"Ding! Congratulations on triggering the quest: Blacksmith's Wish. You have received pre-quest rewards: Mining Skill, Pickaxe!"
Mining: Life Skill, Beginner Level, 0/10000. Able to mine ores!
Pickaxe: Gold Equipment, Attack 20-35. Level Requirement: 1 Durability: 30/30
[Special Effect] Able to mine ores!
[Passive Effect] Deep Excavation: Ore extraction rate increased by 20%, high-grade ore extraction rate increased by 5%!
Glancing at the rewards, Chu Rui didn't feel much joy in his heart. ,
"Also, this thing is my family's heirloom. Take some with you to protect yourself!" The blacksmith uncle passed over a few small and exquisite iron rods.
[Iron Shrapnel Bomb] (Hidden Weapon) Deals 200 damage to all enemies within a 3 * 3 radius.
Hidden weapon?
There's actually such a thing?
Looking at the five small iron rods in his hand, Chu Rui was a little surprised. It's an AOE attack, and it's also a forced damage. To the current players, 200 damage is enough to instantly kill most of them! It's really not bad!
"Blacksmith uncle, I'll go first! Don't worry, I'll definitely find your daughter! "
After putting away the Metal Chip Bomb, Rui took a deep look at the blacksmith uncle whose face was already wrinkled. He said resolutely to him, and then without hesitation, turned around and walked out of the blacksmith shop.
Walking straight to the entrance of the village, Chu Rui looked at the village chief who stood there unchanging for thousands of years. His heart moved, and he walked up to him.
"Are you ready to set off?" Seeing Chu Rui, the village chief's face showed a hint of a smile.
"Village chief, I'll definitely destroy the monsters that wreaked havoc in the mines. Don't worry. Also, your son … "Looking at the village chief who was silent and had a sorrowful expression, Chu Rui let out a breath and continued," I'll find him, and the blacksmith uncle's daughter, I'll help you find them. "
"Hehe, Old Tie, that kid really told you everything." The village chief endured his sorrow and said with a forced smile, "Go ahead and do it! But don't risk your life. For that mine, we've already sacrificed a lot of people. You're still young, there's still a lot of things you haven't done. Don't lose your life for nothing! "
"Don't worry village chief, my life is tough. Other than myself, no one can take it away, not even the monsters!" Chu Rui laughed and waved his hand.
'Ding! Player' Sasha 'wants to talk to you, do you accept?'
"Accept!"
"Sly Hand, we're ready, where are you?" Sasha's voice was still fresh and straightforward, which made Chu Rui who was in a bad mood feel a lot better.
"I'm at the entrance of the village, chief!" Chu Rui stated his location and then hung up the call.
Hearing the busy tone, Sasha was a bit stunned. Then she reacted and couldn't help but feel embarrassed and angry.
What's wrong with that guy? Ignoring my charms time and time again, are you blind? Damn it, other people don't even have the fortune to talk to me. He hung up so quickly, it makes me feel like a plague.
"Sasha, what's wrong?"
Looking at Sasha who was gnashing her teeth in anger, Yezekael who was standing at the side couldn't help but ask. When he heard from Sasha that Sly Hand actually got a hidden mission, and perhaps a hidden map, he was very excited. Originally, he only wanted to get closer to Sly Hand with that one gold coin, it was an investment. But he just invested and got such an unexpected profit, this made him even more determined to rope in Sly Hand. For him, nothing was important in the early stages of the game, only levels were the most important. Leveling up to level 10, reaching the city, could be considered the real start. The first one to arrive would be the first to take advantage of the situation. Now that Sly Hand gave them a chance to get a lot of experience, how could they not be happy? Looking at Sasha's angry face, he couldn't help but worry. Did something happen? He ran back from the crocodile area and wasted his leveling time, please don't be stood up!
"Nothing, that guy is at the entrance of the village!"
Sasha said in a bad mood and walked away with a sullen face, leaving Yezekael and the others who were stunned and at a loss.
"So slow!"
Chu Rui who had been waiting at the entrance of the village for a long time finally saw Sasha and the others walking over. He couldn't help but frown slightly.
Without any superfluous words, Chu Rui directly pulled all of them into the team.
"I'll say this first, since I'm the team leader, then you have to listen to my orders. Also, I have the priority to choose the equipment. If you can't do it, then say it now. If you screw up at the crucial moment, then don't blame me for being rude! "
Glancing at Yezekael, Sasha, Tianer, and the tall and thin magician with the ID "Everflame", Chu Rui directly said in the team channel.
"Hey, we have to listen to everything you say and let you choose the equipment. Doesn't that mean we don't get any benefits? "Chu Rui just finished his words, and Tianer couldn't help but shout.
"You can choose not to agree!" Chu Rui didn't even look at Tianer, and looked straight at Yezekael, "I'll give you one minute to think about it!"
Looking at Chu Rui who turned around and walked away, Yezekael smiled bitterly. He glanced at the frowning Sasha and Xihuo, then pulled back the furious Tianer, and softly explained the pros and cons of the plan to them.
"Finished the discussion?" Chu Rui narrowed his eyes and looked at Yezekael, and asked faintly.
"Sly Hand Bro, please advise me. For this mission, you have full authority and the right to give orders! "Yezekael said awkwardly under the unhappy looks of the three people beside him.
"Very good! In that case, let's go! "Chu Rui didn't care about the expressions of the three people, and nodded, and took the lead to set out.
According to the map given by the village head, Chu Rui and the group ran for nearly 30 minutes before they reached the mysterious mine entrance. Glancing around, Chu Rui was surprised to find that they were not far from the place where the Gray Wolf King lived. Standing at the entrance of the abandoned mine, they could even see the high platform where the Gray Wolf slept.
Looking around, perhaps because there were no traces of people in the mine for a long time, the place was already overgrown with weeds, and almost covered the entrance of the mine. If it wasn't for the map, Chu Rui really didn't know that there was a mine here.
Perhaps it was because there were monsters inside, but before they entered the mine, they felt a sense of coldness. Glancing at some of the special stones and talismans around the mine, Chu Rui slightly frowned, and somewhat vigilantly walked forward. He touched it, but there was no abnormality! It seemed that this seal only worked on monsters!
Finding no danger, Chu Rui waved to the back, and Yezekael and the others immediately followed.
In the dark tunnel, although it wasn't so dark that they couldn't see their own fingers, but the visibility was greatly reduced. Coupled with the cold atmosphere, it made Sasha and Tianer tremble a little. After all, they were girls, being afraid of the dark and some small animals was innate.
"Pa pa …"
Stepping on hard stones and dry wood, the crisp sound of footsteps rang out continuously, echoing in the depths of the mine. The strange atmosphere made Chu Rui and the others a little silent and vigilant.
"Hey, what the hell is this place? In addition to the dark, there are no ghosts! "
After walking for a while, Tianer finally couldn't help but speak with dissatisfaction.
"Pay attention, we're here!"
Chu Rui, who had been leading the way in front, suddenly said, making the four people behind suddenly nervous. In the previous section of the road, the gloomy atmosphere made them a little nervous. Now that they heard Chu Rui say that they were really going to fight with unknown things, they were quite nervous!
Not caring about the nervous expressions of the four people behind, Chu Rui brought them here because he didn't want to owe that one Gold Coin a favor. Other than that, there was no other reason. Holding the dagger, he slowly moved forward like a cat. After getting out of the tunnel, Chu Rui saw a huge mine, and wandering in the mine … disgusting monsters!
