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 become a werewolf.
When he met Adrian before, Gu Fei remembered that there was nothing on his neck. This meant that it wasn't a necklace that could be worn casually, but a necklace that would turn the werewolf once it was worn. As long as Adrian didn't have the chance to wear the necklace, he wouldn't be able to become 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 out his hand, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door.
Adrian opened the door and Gu Fei looked at his neck again. It was empty.
"Oh, 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 wasn't a meaningless move. NPCs belonged to a special group. Players could interact with them casually, but if the system judged that contact would cause them to lose health points, then the NPC would be like an individual in a safe zone. Attacks would be ineffective. So, 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 told me everything. I know you're behind this. You know who they are and that they don't want to get into trouble with humans, so you used them to work for you for free. Despicable! "Boring … Gu Fei thought to himself, I'm actually teaching a robot a moral lesson.
"Surrender!" Gu Fei revealed 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. Wearing 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 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, the 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. Adrian could only dodge under the pressure of Gu Fei's blade.
"F * ck!!!" Ye Xiaowu, who was admiring Gu Fei's quest besides Qianli, couldn't help but roar when he saw Gu Fei rush to the last hurdle. They had designed a necklace for Adrian that would transform once it was worn, 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 wearing the necklace.
Although 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. In order to defeat it, having strength was obviously the easiest way. Apart from this, waiting for an opportunity to destroy the Werewolf's necklace or persistently stalling for time until the necklace's effects wore off were all tricks that could be devised when one couldn't defeat the Werewolf directly. However, there was no way that one wouldn't even give Adrian a chance to transform. And Gu Fei had done it without a doubt.
Like this, the final boss' strength was greatly reduced. Adrian's current skill was a shrunken version of Suo Tu's. His speed wasn't any slower than Suo Tu's, and he had shrunken his attack and defense.
"Wait! Wait! " Adrian, who was already covered in injuries, yelled. After all, he was still a boss. He wasn't killed by Gu Fei in one hit like a cowardly mortal. After taking quite a few hits, he still had the strength to jump around.
Gu Fei didn't stop. What if this was a 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 fled. "What are they? They're Werewolves, savage Werewolves!"
Gu Fei was depressed. Why was it that in the blink of an eye, it was a robot giving him a moral lesson?
"Let me go, and half of the treasures in my cellar will be yours!" Adrian shouted.
What answered him was a flash of a sword.
"All of it!" Adrian continued to shout.
What answered him was still the flash of a sword.
Gu Fei didn't show any mercy. Finally, Adrian couldn't take it anymore and fell to the ground. He yelled hoarsely, "You idiot!"
His hand rose and the sword fell. The world was quiet.
Ye Xiaowu stared blankly at the screen. His last little trick didn't fool Gu Fei. The game designer said that when Adrian's health dropped to 1/5, he would start to bewitch the player with words.
If the player thought that this was a possible quest reward and let their guard down, Adrian would take the opportunity to go to the cellar to get the treasure and escape.
This was a hard rule in the game. The player couldn't change this, so Adrian would definitely disappear.
Even if the final conspirator escaped, the quest would still be completed, but the completion rate would only be 80%.
"This guy …" Ye Xiaowu muttered to himself. Since 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 treasures in your cellar be mine? "
"Done!!!" Little Rain cheered after killing Adrian.
Gu Fei pulled out the quest window to take a look. The quest was still there, so there was probably some follow-up work. At least, he hadn't received any EXP reward up until now.
He searched Adrian's body and found a necklace in his arms. "Wolf King's Tooth. Equipment effect: Transform into a Werewolf Lord. Duration: 15 minutes. Cooldown: 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 wear it on their body and press them down. Gu Fei had never experienced something like this that couldn't be worn around his neck.
Little Rain wanted to take a look, but Gu Fei was also forced to stop when he gave it to her.
"It says it's a quest item," Gu Fei said helplessly.
"Oh!"
"Look through it again." Gu Fei leaned over and continued searching Adrian's corpse. "Look for the key to the cellar in the back. There's a lot of money there."
As expected, the key was 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 all 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 rewards when she turned in the quest, and it wasn't clear if the reward was money.
A cellar full of gold, but it couldn't be exchanged for normal currency. It was an extremely painful thing.
Even if they wanted to take it all away, it was impossible. Gold was 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 Rain muttered, "Not gold, it's trash; not gold, it's trash; not gold, it's trash …"
Thus, the two of them left the cellar. Gu Fei took the Wolf King's Fang to the Village Chief and told him everything.
"It's all Adrian's doing. He used this thing to turn into a werewolf and intimidated the villagers into working for him. He 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've resolved a great crisis in our village. To express my gratitude …" The village chief turned around and flipped 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 around and handed Gu Fei a robe, a mage's robe.
Gu Fei was extremely disappointed. The mage's robe was just an ordinary one to hide his identity. Now, after such a hard quest chain, he was actually given a mage's 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 definitely be 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 indifferently glanced at it.
The Moonlight Night Robe didn't have outstanding defense, which was a common feature of mage's robes. In addition, it had + 20 Intelligence, + 1 Spell Mastery, and + 10% Spell Attack Damage.
"What's Spell Mastery?" Gu Fei asked as he showed it to Little Rain.
Little Rain also shook her head blankly.
It either added Intelligence or Spell Mastery. It was obviously a branded mage's robe, but for him … Gu Fei sighed. But no matter what, it was much better than a beginner's robe. Just the defense alone was already high! No matter what, it was still a piece of Gold equipment. Gu Fei put it on. His whole body was pitch-black, reflecting the characteristics of the "Night" brand.
"It looks very 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.
