Chapter 543: it's not over
Not long after the traversers returned to Pratt's workshop, a companion came from the castle and brought a special piece of equipment.
It was an ordinary animal fang dressed with an ordinary-looking red thread, like a talisman in memory of the low-level adventurers that could be seen everywhere. But in fact, the tusks are just disguise. Inside the shell of the tusks, they are made of precious materials through extremely complicated means. This piece of equipment called "Tooth of Lies" is not the work of the traversers, but a quest reward. Its original owner was a professional liar who had been dead for many years. The liar used this treasure obtained by chance, and he did not know how many people he had deceived in his life. As a result, in his later years, he was deceived by others, his life savings was swept away, he was swept out of the house with few belongings, and he committed suicide in shame and anger.
In the game, to get this treasure, you need to get in touch with the offspring of the swindlers who deceived him first, complete some tasks for the swindler's family, and finally find clues in the process of the task and find out that you have been cheated. Then turn against these liars and hack them to death to discover the underground cemetery where they secretly dispose of their bodies. In the underground cemetery, players will see the ghost of the old liar. If the liar's family was wiped out before, the old liar will tell you where his most precious treasures are, and then you can follow his instructions to hunt for treasures.
Of course, the passers-by will not be so troublesome. Archer Skye and priest Frass, who were looking for this treasure at that time, did not go to be tricked by those liars, and then they were so embarrassed that they killed the whole family. Experience, it took about half a month to search, and finally found the skeleton of the old liar, and took the precious treasure from the skeleton.
When they were taking the treasure, the ghost of the old liar once appeared and tried to stop them, but was directly overtaken by Frass.
Although this old liar is a little pitiful, he has caused countless people in his life, and he has nothing to sympathize with. What's more, what he never forgets is that he wants to kill the entire family of the enemy's descendants. Of course, they can't agree to such a thing.
So, they let him go where the dead should go. All the good and bad, let it go with the wind.
After getting this treasure, Pratt solemnly hung it around his neck and let his companions test it with a spell, and he was relieved.
"The biggest flaw is finally fixed!" he said with relief, "This magical world is really too troublesome, I don't know when a detection lie came over..."
"You can't lie to your wife with this. For example, you are going to go out and spend time, but tell your wife that you have to work overtime..."
"Shit! Am I such a person?"
"A man becomes bad when he has money. Are you rich now?"
Facing Laisha's simple but to-the-point inquiries, Prett was suddenly dumbfounded. He turned his head to look, his eyes lit up, pointed to the panda and said, "Look, the panda is also very rich, but he doesn't. Go bad!"
The panda who was innocently implicated pointed at himself in surprise: "I am an orc!"
"Aren't orcs men?"
"I'm an orc, how can I 'learn bad' in the main living area of humans?" Panda asked, dumbfounded.
"As far as I know, many Fengyue places do not reject orcs." Noah, who used a door-like epee, said, "I often go to relax after destroying monsters, and I have seen orcs who relax together more than once."
Panda stared, speechless.
"So Uncle Bear has learned badly?" Laisha asked.
Huanxun veteran Noah looked at the panda for a while, then shook his head: "He probably hasn't."
"Why? Didn't it say that 'men can learn bad when they have money'?" Laisha asked curiously.
Noah smiled: "Probably...because he's stupid."
Panda sighed deeply: "You two talk slowly, I'm going to exercise."
Amidst the laughter like silver bells and copper bells, he hurriedly left the workshop, rolling his eyes in annoyance.
(What the hell! Why is it bad to be rich? Is it my fault to be rich? And what kind of rich am I? The real rich people have shops next to each other, and the land is connected. One slice. How can I be considered rich as someone who eats savings!)
He thought indignantly, carrying a heavy load and running down the wide street.
(And... why is it that I'm stupid if I don't learn bad things? I'm just trying to keep myself clean! Is it normal to be like those guys who can't control their belts? It's just inexplicable!)
Just when Panda resentfully used exercise to sway the grievances and sweat in his heart, one of Terrera's heirs, Prince Zion, who is usually unremarkable, was negotiating with his staff in his palace.
"It can't just go away!" he said. "Pret must be hiding some secrets, very important secrets!"
The staff nodded one after another, and one of the staff said, "There is no reason for the seniors of the Pieduc family to suddenly come to help him. There must be a relationship between them!"
Another staff member said: "As far as we know, Prett himself is also a master at using shields. That Julian and him... are probably taught by a teacher."
"That's right! Maybe both of them are students of that senior's master... That's why the reclusive old senior came to Trela City when he learned that the students were getting married."
Another staff member said thoughtfully: "Not only that, why did the old Piduc family hide their identity? At present, there is still peace between our two countries, and the Piduc family members came to the city of Trela to participate. A friend's wedding is an open and upright affair, and there is no need to hide your identity."
"The reason why he hides his identity is probably that his identity is not visible here."
Prince Zion's eyes narrowed suddenly, and the murderous intent disappeared in a flash.
Identity is not visible? How can a senior, an expert, have a dark identity? Even if he had any grievances and grievances when he was young, decades have passed and people have changed generations. What kind of grievances do not go away with the wind?
The only explanation is that this person caused trouble in Trellera back then and had a **** feud. Even after many years, once it was exposed, the descendants of the enemy family would immediately spare no effort to seek revenge!
"Check it out for me. In the past fifty years—no, in one hundred years, there have been those masters of the Pieduts family who had blood feuds with us Terrera people." Prince Zion lowered his eyes. Covering up the murderous intention, "Remember! Just check, don't do anything else!"
The staff nodded.
"Also, we can't relax about attracting those young knights." He said, "These young people are the stars of hope for Terrera in the future. With their support, they will get Terrera's support. The so-called popular opinion. , To put it bluntly, it depends on who the knights and nobles are willing to support. This is the most important thing, you must distinguish the priority!"
"As ordered!"
After the staff dispersed one after another, Prince Terrera, who has the name "Black Prince" in the game, raised his head and looked at the sky outside the door.
"If I had just used the lie detection method, the problem would have been solved long ago. It's a pity that my sister also thought of this, and she actually told the magicians in advance not to do anything rude—my sister, it's really not enough, but more than enough!"
"The Kingdom of Terrera must not be handed over to such a person!"
