Chapter 60: Before the mission

The so-called performance means fighting, which Lin Yining could not understand more clearly.
When he walked out of Lorraine's office, there was still no response.
He always felt something was amiss, something he couldn't tell. But he cannot give up this opportunity now.
Lorraine provided him with a house, which is much cleaner than the broken house on the side of No. 95 alley. It is said that Lorraine's identity certificate will also help him get it. It is said that there is no harm in seeing this person. .
He concealed the whole person under a black robe, and followed the underground man to the residence that Lorraine prepared for him. This is a small building with a large area. Upstairs and downstairs add up to more than 500 square meters. It is extravagant to live alone. I don't know what the reason is. Lorraine also brought the two children bought by Lin Yining. When Lin Yining entered the door, they saw them standing in the same place.
"If you have any needs, you can inform us directly, the cleaning staff will come after you go out, and will not disturb your normal life." The person was very polite, and after speaking with Lin Yining, he was ready to respect Go out.
"Wait." Lin Yining said: "These two children..."
The two children were so scared that the whole person was tense. Lin Yining couldn't bear it for a while, and waved his hand to let the other party out.
He didn't know what to do with the two children. He just ignored them and let them go to rest. Lin Yining also found a room and was going to sleep. Counting it, he has not had a good rest for a long time.
When he woke up, it was already noon the next day. He came down from the room upstairs and found that the two children did not know what inspired them. They took the responsibility of the servant and not only cleaned the original The house was cleaned neatly and cleanly, and he ordered lunch for him, the meal was still hot, and it seemed that a lot of effort was wasted.
When they saw Lin Yining coming down from the upstairs, they became stern. Lin Yining frowned, waved them away, and went to the restaurant to eat, but before taking a few bites, he heard one of the children say, "Sir, someone is looking for it."
"Who is it?" Lin Yining asked.
"It's an old beggar," the child said.
The identity of the old beggar reminds him of the strange person outside the city. Although he has already obtained the identity certificate, he still has many questions to ask. Without hesitation, Lin Yining said, "Let him come in."
So what the old beggar saw was that Lin Yining was dressed casually, sitting at the dining table and happily enjoying him, which made him look straight.
"Are you...so neglectful of etiquette?" said the old beggar.
Lin Yining put down the cutlery and seemed to understand his doubts.
"Okay, you look more specific than I am, what are the requirements, now I will try to do it next time despite speaking out." He took the napkin by the table and wiped his mouth gracefully.
Now that someone has supported him, Lin Yining is too lazy to cover up his identity.
"No, you are seated right." The old beggar sat down opposite Lin Yining and said, "It looks like you have solved the problem of identification."
"Yes." One of the children who had been standing by added a drink to the old beggar. He took it and didn't drink it and set it aside: "If I were you, I wouldn't touch anything like the Lorraine dog thing. ."
"Does it include tickets for going out?" Lin Yining said: "He promised that I have a chance to go to the cracks in the space."
"Of course, is it still necessary to ask?" The old beggar hurriedly said: "With almost no thinking, you can be sure that this is a dangerous trap-if you can't resist the temptation and jump in, you will... …"
He lifted the cup high, let go, and threw it down: "Powder crushed."
Lin Yining was unimpressed. He stood up and added a glass of boiled water to himself. After thinking for a while, he picked up a new cup, poured water on the old beggar, and said, "But you know, I can't live here forever, my home is outside."
"There are still many people who will do it. Do you have to approach the danger yourself?" The old beggar pushed the cup away, leaned over, and stared at Lin Yining.
Lin Yining lowered his eyes and said, "Really."
Because the other party does not know, he is now in a copy. Since it is a task, the benefits of being the first person to find and approach a clue are self-evident. But he would never follow the npc's fidget and make himself a puppet, so he let the old beggar come in.
"Tell you a common sense. If you want to persuade others, the two most common methods are to present facts and reason. You must tell me your reasons." Lin Yining's fingertips tapped on the table. Say: "Lorraine will not be a good person. I knew it from the first second I stepped into the ground, but he convinced me that if you want me to move towards your ideas, you have to tell me something."
The old beggar rubbed his messy hair and was silent for a while, not knowing where to start. Lin Yining did not rush to urge him to continue to eat his own meal. In the game, it is extravagant to be able to sit down and eat a meal with peace of mind.
"What is your impression of Lynn City?" He thought for a long time, holding back such a question.
"Luxury, rich, and drunk." These three adjectives come from Mr. Xiaoming in Lin Yining's space. After he finished, he added: "Exclusion, nervous exclusion, and... the dark side that surprised me. "The latter, he said, I don't know whether it was underground or the two children around him.
The old beggar couldn't help but justify his hometown: "The human cities on the entire continent are in this style, you can't buckle this big hat on Lynn City."
"I apologize." Lin Yining said very simply.
"I don't mean that," said the old beggar. "Then why do you think Lynn City is so exclusive?"
Lin Yining shook his head without speculation.
"Because this is one of the few cities left on the mainland." The old beggar sighed: "People in the remaining cities are independent and struggle to survive, and the remaining cities are enemies, so this is the case. xenophobic."
"This cannot be a cause-and-effect relationship with Lorraine being a bad person." Lin Yining was eating, without looking up.
"I'm here soon," said the old beggar. "Aren't you curious, why are there only a few cities left on the mainland? Why is Lynn City lucky to be one of the remaining cities?"
This is not a difficult question to answer.
He thought about it and said two words: "m22 galaxy, smile company."
Xiaoming in his space belongs to the same setting as Lin Encheng—Western Fantasy World. Then, since he knows some inside stories, the old beggar might also know.
The old beggar glared at him for a long time, and finally bowed his head in dismay: "I remember this syllable. At the same time, I also remember who sold the city of Lynn."
"If you call letting the rest alive be a betrayal, I can't agree." There was a whispered voice next to her, which was the younger of the two children sent by Lorraine, she Say: "My grandmother lived a hundred and nine years before she passed away. She experienced all that, she told me."
"Oh, a century ago, your grandmother was only nine years old, wasn't she?" The old beggar said strangely to the child: "A nine-year-old kid, are you old? What do you know now?"
"I understand, I want to live with dignity, sir." The little girl looked at him: "If you can't have dignity, it's okay to just live."
Lin Yining understood what he meant.
"I agree with her." Lin Yining said.
"So, do you have to sacrifice your hometown for the people in the city of Lynn to survive?" said the old beggar: "The opening of space cracks is a conspiracy--the conspiracy of those who once betrayed--what do they do to open space crack , Can you really guess?"
"If this is what Smile Company means, it should be a good thing for us. Yes." Lin Yining said: "Most of us are not living well now, one day earlier is close to the truth, then one day earlier Let it all end."
"Even if it ends with the death of everyone." The old beggar satirized him.
"This kind of point of view is on you, a counterfeit dealer, and it's a bit funny." Lin Yining finished, adding: "Sorry."
"Forget it." Unable to say that Lin Yining made the old beggar somewhat depressed. He waved his hand and said, "I'll say something useful to you. Lorraine pleases you like this, with other intentions."
Lin Yining: "I guessed it."
"Shut up, let me finish." The old beggar went on to say: "He accepted a team of outsiders, and their hearts are very unified, not so easy to control, so..."
"Need me?" Lin Yining said.
"It's not just you." The old beggar said: "Lorraine and the people of the Holy See should have negotiated. The Holy See will find stupid enough stupid, complete the task, bring back things, as for Lorraine, he is looking for cannon fodder. But If the people in that team are selected for two, it will not be easy to become gray."
"Thank you." Lin Yining said sincerely this time.
"No need to thank you, I am a conspiracy." The old beggar said: "Although your mind is not so clear on the right and wrong, but in the face of your own interests, you should still be able to turn around. I just want to use you to stop Their conspiracy."
"For the sake of the clues you gave me, I don't care about your personal attacks on me." Lin Yining crossed his fingers and looked at the old beggar: "Finally ask you another question, I want to settle the two children ,What should I do?"
The two children on the side were nervous.
The old beggar said that he finally put his sight on the two children. He looked at them a few times and said, "It seems that they are all qualified children, and they will be sent to the orphanage of the Holy See, maybe they will be accepted. ."
"I know." Lin Yining said.
After the old beggar left, Lin Yining thought for a while. If the old beggar's words were established, then it can be inferred that what happened to Lynn City a hundred years ago has now undergone qualitative changes.
After completing the tasks of this copy, Lynn City may be officially incorporated into the game world. For such a big change, it is not clear to players whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, but it can be directly speculated that the game world will definitely enter a new era.
For Lin Yining, this is probably a good thing.
"Sir..." He thought for a while and heard a voice in his ear, Lin Yining heard, this is the little girl.
He looked up and saw the little girl and her brother staring at him anxiously, with red eyes: "Are you going to abandon us?"
Lin Yining sighed and called her over, saying, "I don't have time and experience to control you now..."
"No need!" she cried, "as long as we stay, we don't need anyone to take care of..."
Lin Yining was not touched by tears, and his tone was still calm: "I may die at any time, even if I won't die, I won't stay here for too long."
"Why are you dying?" The older boy finished listening to Lin Yining's conversation with the old beggar and wondered: "Can't you stay? Then you won't die."
Lin Yining couldn't explain anything to him, he could only sigh long and touched the little girl's hair.
"Let's go." He stood up and said, "The old beggar only said that if you are qualified, they might accept you, but they don't say yes. Now let's test a qualification. If you don't have that talent, I have to think Other ways."
.
He took two children out of the residence that Lorraine had prepared for him and went to the Holy See.
Now Lorraine gave him the pot. He was no longer a black household. Before going to the Holy See, Lin Yining brought two children to buy something.
By the way, he should buy a little ration for his little dragon.
He took two children to sweep a lot of things in the store, and after coming out, the little girl suddenly took Lin Yining's hand.
Lin Yining lowered her head, but saw her carefully glance sideways.
He looked at it and determined at a glance that it was a player.
And this person should have been following them secretly for some time.
Lin Yining didn't believe that they had the courage to work on the street. He took two children directly to the orphanage of the Holy See. After explaining the situation with the nun there, he walked out.
In an alley beside him, he saw the man who had followed him.
Forty up and down, lean, dark skin, unremarkable. Lin Yining now has much better memory. Even if he doesn't remember who this person is, he vaguely remembers that he seems to have seen this person's report in the news.
Since I have seen it in the news, the identity of this person is coming.
A member of the prison.
"What are you doing with me?" The plant on Lin Yining's wrist seemed to come alive, and stretched from his wrist. The movement seemed to stretch out.
"Look at who you are," the other party said.
In his eyes, the shape changed in an instant, the pupils became double pupils, and the color became a deep blue, like a vortex, to people in.
Lin Yining was half right, he really didn't think about it. If he didn't lead the guards, he wouldn't call it.
In his view, his rank was not much lower than that of Lin Yining, and with the props on his body, he might not be able to win with one move, but he did not expect that Lin Yining was only in a trance for a moment, and then he woke up immediately The plant on his wrist grew rapidly and wrapped around his neck, a deadly move.
Since the opponent started first, Lin Yining felt that he did not need any psychological burden at all.
He wasn't sure if the other party was still here, so he didn't rush to use Xinghe's reflection to deal with the body, directly over the wall, and quietly left the scene before someone discovered it.
As for the handling of the evidence, let Lorraine go. He thought so.
After Lin Yining left the scene, he changed his way and walked to the door of the orphanage. Maybe he has been away long enough, both children have already been tested. The expression on the girl's face was very dazed, with teardrops hanging, and when she saw Lin Yining coming back, she ran up and hugged him.
"Sir, where have you been?" she said.
Lin Yining touched her hair and said warmly: "Nothing."
He accompanied the two children for a while, and finally ushered in separate moments. Behind him, when Lin Yining was about to leave, the little girl looked at his back and suddenly said, "Don’t die, or come back to see me ,good or not?"
Lin Yining smiled slightly at her.
There were two people missing in the room, and it was inevitable that they would be empty all at once. Lorraine’s servant for Lin Yining is very professional and has a high level of business. He can’t feel the presence of these people at all, and the house becomes clean and tidy at once. In fact, this is not bad.
Another day passed and it was the day Lin Yining first played the game as an elf.
This time, his preparation room is no longer a humble little room next to the cage. Next to the obviously high-grade grandstand, there is a well-designed small room.
Lin Yining did not have the habit of being late, and came to this room early, so that he did not expect that Lorraine came earlier.
On a small Western-style table, there are a few plates of dessert and two drinks.
Lin Yining greeted him and sat down on the side.
"Have you been across?" Lin Yining turned his head to look at him.
"No, don't dare to go, afraid of being beaten." Lorraine smiled and said, "You don't know how cruel their group is."
"It looks like I'm miserable." Lin Yining said pun: "Who is my opponent?"
"It's their boss." Lorraine said: "Actually, you don't have to worry much, you are all fellows, don't you? I think he will let you go."
"You think too much." Lin Yining paused and said, "Or, I should say, you don't want such hypocrisy? You should already know what they did to me before."
"Yes, I know, so I arranged for their boss to give you the first game." Lorraine said: "Kill their leader, the rest will deal with it better, won't they?"
"No. Killing the waste that provoked it first, it was their self-reliance. If I killed their boss, maybe they would die with me." Lin Yining stared at him, his eyes unclear: "I guess you I also know that an old beggar has visited me."
"Well, yes, you guessed it right." Lorraine's tone was relaxed. "When I saw you at first glance, I knew that no matter what I said, you are unlikely to believe me completely, so what do you think, In fact, it doesn’t matter to me. After all, I still know..." He chuckled a little: "Your desire to successfully complete the task is 100 times stronger than others, so I don't care what the madman says."
"I didn't understand the words of the old maniac. There are loopholes in his words." Lin Yining looked over and said, "There must be more than a few outsiders on your hands. You can choose others. Why not? Is it necessary to dismantle this team?"
"Because for you, this is a task, and the task means reward." Lorraine said: "They are greedy and want to swallow the task by themselves. For me, this is too dangerous." He took a cup of tea and took a sip: "Since you have seen him, you should know what his crazy city looks like. Many things are conjectured by him. It is best not to believe them."
Lin Yining said, "I know."
"There is...to arrange them for you, and I am a bit selfish." Lorraine said: "Your current level is still a little worse. After killing them, the level should be promoted."
At this time, the opening bell also happened.
Lin Yining left his seat and walked towards the door.
"The real reason for doing this is actually because I like you very much." Lin Yining heard a faint, unfamiliar voice coming from behind. He suddenly turned around and found nothing. Lorraine was still sitting there, and applauded him.
At this moment, Lin Yining could only be suspicious, he had misheard.
He strode into the center of the stadium and found that the audience around him was already full. His opponent is an ordinary-looking man, with only a pair of eyes, so that people can not see the depth.
"Please shake your hands," the host said loudly.
Lin Yining and him simply shook each other.
"So, the game begins!"
Lin Yining didn't support her and directly distanced herself from the other party.
He is now at level 16, and the opponent is fifteen. He is one level higher than the opponent. Compared with the last tiger, killing this person, although the experience gained will be less, it will be easier.
It's a relatively good idea for him to start.
After the game started, the man smiled secretly at Lin Yining. The flesh and blood on his body shattered, like snowflakes in the sun, disappearing without a trace.
This person is of skeleton descent.
Lin Yining made a conclusion.
Ghost race is a race that is more difficult for him to deal with. Plants are alive, they are dead. And the death energy of them will be transmitted to Lin Yining's plants like a plague. Even if Lin Yining has a small part of the ghost race lineage, it will not prevent him from not like this race.
Lin Yining made a preemptive shot and shot directly with an arrow, expecting to smash the other party's skull, but in reason, he failed. The spot where he was hit by the arrow, although a small crack appeared, but soon, a hazy gray The fog wrapped it, and the crack was repaired in the gray fog.
Through the skull's eyes, you can see the fire of his soul.
Lin Yining put his eyes on his neck, where there was a bead, and the fog spread from there.
Against the ghost race, one of Lin Yining's best skills is useless. After all, there is no flesh on the skeleton, and there is no way for plants to grow on it. When he had no time to react, he saw the skull open his hands and his jaws opened and closed, as if he was reading a spell. As he moved, the gray beads around his neck released a burst of thick fog.
A touch of death soon covered the entire table.
The fire plant on Lin Yining's wrist suddenly brightened like a counterattack, and his burning wrist hurt.
"Be quiet," Lin Yining whispered to him. He changed his position and released an arrow. This time he shot not the skull, but the ground beside the skull. Soon on the ground, a plant grew up, it pulled the pillar of the table with one end, and tied the skull with the other.
Ordinary plants have a limited time to survive in the dead air. Lin Yining fired three arrows at the moment it tied the skeleton and shot it at a location on the skull's head.
The gray mist became thicker and thicker. Inside, the first arrow was broken, and the second one was greatly reduced. Only the third one was hit, but the effect was not great.
The skeleton just seemed to summon something. From the fog, three little demons sprang out and rushed towards Lin Yining. After the summoning was completed, the skeleton on the other side broke free from the dead plants and concentrated on commanding the demon.
After Lin Yining killed the first demon, he no longer wasted time dealing with these little guys. He once again fired several arrows at the skeleton. This time the arrows fell around him. The plants, driven by Lin Yining, desperately wanted to remove the gray beads around his neck.
The skeleton was entangled with several plants attached to it, and although he broke free a lot, there were still many entangled in him firmly. Surprisingly, a plant mutated, and after grabbing the beads, it tried to absorb it.
The fog is about to dissipate, and the skeleton struggles. It was almost found that Lin Yining seized the opportunity and the fire plant on his wrist was released. It flew through the skull's eye socket like a lightning in the gray mist, devouring the fire of his soul.
"Elf wins!" the host cheered, and there was thunderous applause outside.
The gray mist disappeared, the little demon disappeared, Lin Yining stood up and walked off the stage directly.
