Quadruple split.

Chapter 137 Cordova
[You have been disconnected, please choose whether to reconnect. 】

When Mo Tan, who had suddenly transformed into a 'lawful good' personality, heard these words, he quit the game without the slightest hesitation.

"Damn it, why is it at this time!"

When he climbed out of the game cabin, his face was full of worry, and then he washed his face as quickly as possible, so as to wake himself up from the slightly trance mental state after the personality transformation.

[Just after cleaning up those skeleton soldiers, I dropped the connection before I could ask anything...]

After returning to the living room, Mo Tan threw himself onto the sofa. He tried hard to adjust his breathing, trying to restore his mental state to a stable state as soon as possible.

"Xiao Wenqiu is still over there. If the danger is not over, it will be difficult for those two players who have no attribute restraint to protect her. They must go back as soon as possible..." He whispered to himself, rubbing his hands gently forehead.

Maybe it's nothing to an adult like me, but Mo Tan is absolutely unwilling to let an inexperienced girl be 'killed' by those eerie looking skeletons!
Maybe it will leave a psychological shadow!
Mo Tan was a little anxious...

Most people are more or less afraid of the dark, corpses, bones and the like, even though they are never lethal.

Fear of the dark is because our eyes, which are used to receive external information most of the time, are restricted. In this case, the human instinct called crisis sense will be gradually amplified, and the fear of the unknown will lead to cranky thinking and uncontrollable thinking. Wait for the situation, and then it turns into scaring myself...

In fact, darkness is just a state of 'no light'. Its only lethality on the physical level is to make you accidentally fall or bump when you can't see clearly. In addition, Gone.

As for corpses or skeletons, their main lethality is still only at the spiritual level. Also because of the sense of crisis, many creatures will feel timid when they see the corpses of their own kind, especially in certain environments. In the middle of the day, I brought myself in, and then made all kinds of crazy brains, and finally was scared to pee...

In fact, the skeletons in reality are not even as threatening as the darkness. They don’t cry or scream when they have only the skeletons left. They can also be used as tools when necessary, and even give you supplements when necessary. Calcium, not scary at all, is there wood? !
But the problem is...

Mo Tan, who can make the above judgments from an objective point of view, may not be afraid, but the naive and cute Wenqiu, who is not deeply involved in the world, is not necessarily. Even if she sees those alive and kicking skeletons and even gets cut by them, she is still calm...

Then he was a little worried!

Misha County, Hodill Avenue

"Xiao Wenqiu!" Mo Tan turned around and shouted anxiously after going online.

"Xiao Wenqiu is here!" The girl standing a few meters in front of him stretched out her little hand vigorously and shouted vigorously.

"Huh?" Mo Tan was obviously a little dumbfounded.

"Brother Hei Fan, were you dragged out of the game cabin by your roommate just now?" The girl blinked her clear and bright black eyes, and ran up to Mo Tan with a smile, "It's such a good relationship!"

Mo Tan gave a dry laugh: "Ha, ha ha ha... yes, the relationship is indeed quite good, what about those two people just now?"

"The two big brothers just now?" Wenqiu stretched out his index finger and tapped his pink lips lightly, and tilted his head: "It seems to say that you are afraid of monsters or something, and you will run away soon after you disappear, brother Hei Fan." It's gone!"

Mo Tan summoned Xiaobai again with a wolf whistle, then picked up Wenqiu's petite body and put it on Xiaobai's back, frowning slightly: "Didn't they plan to run with you?"

"I have something to say!" The girl shook her head vigorously, and said with a smile, "But I didn't go with them when Brother Hei Fan came back~"

Mo Tan turned onto the wolf, and pampered Wenqiu's hair: "That's good, it seems that those two are good people."

"Yes, yes, they are all good people..."

at the same time
Black Tower City, Thieves Guild, Hall of the Hidden Shadows

The second-level receptionist 'Golden Tooth' Tatami is curling up on a chair and manicuring her nails bored. She is a middle-aged female dwarf in coquettish clothes. She has a long experience in the Thieves Guild of Black Tower City, although her strength is not very good. , but because she has a wide network of contacts, and she is not bad at both sides, so her life is pretty good.

She is very satisfied with herself for being able to climb to the position of second-level receptionist in this place. You must know that the Thieves Guild here in Black Tower City not only pays quite well, but also earns enough oil and water. It is also enough to have face, so Tatami also cherishes her position very much.

"But these days are really boring..."

She muttered something in a low voice, threw the dagger inlaid with inferior gemstones on the round table in front of her, and sighed with her cheeks on her hands. The dazzling big gold tooth was shining near the corner of her mouth, which was very cool.

An orc thief who had just delivered the task walked up to her and said with a rather joking smile: "Sister Jin, listen to my brother's advice, let's sell this tooth, this thing can destroy at least half of your teeth. Stealth level."

"I want you to take care of it." Tatami curled her lips and cast a blank look at the orc in front of her: "Fuck off, I don't have time to entertain you."

The orc thief chuckled: "Thank goodness, Sister Jin, your 'host' brother, I really can't bear it..."

"Blocking the way."

A cold voice sounded behind him.

The orc thief turned around suddenly: "Who?"

Then he was gently pushed aside, and the other party didn't even look at him, but walked slowly in front of Tatami, threw a note on the table in front of her, and said in a deep voice: "It's a bit interested."

Tatami raised his head and looked at the young, handsome, ruthless human man in front of him. He picked up the note in front of him and glanced at it: "This is..."

"Let me explain." The other party said softly, those slightly narrowed eyes didn't even look at her directly.

Tatami hadn't spoken yet, but the orc thief who was pushed aside just now said angrily, "You impolite little..."

"Shut up!" Tatami glared at him, then coughed lightly, and asked seriously to the young man in front of him, "Who are you? What level are you?"

She subconsciously felt that the other party was not simple.

"Cordoba, mid-level thief," the other party cherished words like gold.

The orc curled his lips: "Tch, I thought it was so powerful, but it turned out to be just a middle..."

"Shut up, Scarface!" Tatami slammed the table and said angrily to the orc, "It's none of your business here now!"

The latter curled his lips and left sullenly.

[This young man is not simple! 】

Looking at the Mr. Cordoba in front of her, Tatami immediately judged in her heart that she is quite accurate in seeing people. Although she only took a few glances, the guy in front of her is definitely not ordinary. mid-level thieves!

Although the equipment on his body is not eye-catching, they are all expensive goods, and the appearance that seems to be looked down upon by everyone is worth considering. Even if his strength is indeed only at the middle level, since he has such a temperament, it can be seen that this The young man either has a strong background or a strong hole card, and his slightly squinted eyes, as if there are two sharp knives hidden inside, made Tatami, who is also a mid-level thief, feel cold all over. Anyway...

This kind of person must not be offended!
[Girl's scarred face, you owe my old lady once! 】

"I won't ask any more questions." Tatami breathed a sigh of relief, then raised his head and smiled at the young man in front of him, "Do you want to know more information?"

The other party nodded slightly.

"Okay, let's go inside and talk."

……

five minutes later
Hall of Invisibility, small reception room

"The thing is like this." Tatami put a piece of paper in front of the other party, and said in a low voice: "Something belonging to our Black Tower Thieves Guild has been robbed, and the other party is probably still in the city. That thing is this..."

The young man glanced at the paper in front of him with a small box drawn on it, and nodded: "Continue."

"There is a piece of information that is very important to our guild." Tatami shrugged and said, "I don't know the details, but one thing is certain, that is, apart from our Black Tower guild, other people Even if you get that box, you won't be able to open it, so the opponent's purpose is probably..."

Cordoba interrupted impatiently: "The point."

"Okay." Tatami didn't mean to be angry at all, but said with a smile on his face: "In short, as long as we find any clues related to this box, as long as we confirm that it is valid, the guild will reward you with [-] gold coins , clean money of [-] gold coins."

The other party shook his head: "Not interested."

"Of course, I've already guessed it." Tatami said with a smile: "You should be interested in the 'Quotation for a Certain Ruins Exploration Team'?"

The young man nodded.

"In fact, that relic is related to the information in that box." Tatami shrugged and spread his hands, "I don't know more."

"Okay." Cordova nodded, and then suddenly asked softly: "So, if I help you get back the things, what is the reward?"

Tatami immediately trembled: "What did you say?!"

"Is there any problem?" The other party looked at her coldly, stroked the dagger at his waist, and murmured, "How do you know if you don't try it?"

To be honest, if the other party is really just a mid-level thief, this kind of thinking is really ignorant...

Of course, Tatami would not say these words. She just followed the instructions above and replied with a serious face: "If you can directly help the guild get that thing back, in addition to the quota of the exploration team just mentioned In addition, we will also give you..."

She swallowed: "[-] gold coins, clean."

"That's all?" As a result, the young man in front of him raised his eyebrows, and his tone seemed a little disappointed.

"Yes, yes..." Tatami said with a wry smile: "That's all, of course, we can guarantee that we will not 'trouble you' afterwards, and at the same time we will not disclose your personal information, in the name of the Black Tower Thieves Guild as a guarantee."

The implication is, don't worry about killing you if we give you money.

Cordova nodded slightly, stood up and said, "I see, see you later."

Tatami bowed and saluted.

Black Tower City Thieves Guild, third basement floor, a certain room
"That's the way it is, Lord Muse." Tatami lowered his head and whispered to a person covered in leather armor in front of him: "I think that kid may have some background..."

Muse Anzhi, the vice president of the Black Tower City Thieves Guild, waved his hand: "Understood, let's go down."

Tatami left.

"If he really brings the things back, there is nothing to talk about." Muse gently blew out the only oil lamp in the room, and said to himself in the dead darkness: "But if he fails It's gone... I might as well make friends with that little guy, and see where he came from..."

four hours later
Black Tower City, Room 11, Liuli Pavilion

Mo Tan, who just went online, walked out of the lounge, glanced at Cole who was slumped in the hall with a smile, and blinked: "Is it done?"

The young man whose name was Kershulun, who had previously been named Cordova, immediately got excited, stood up and bowed to Mo Tan: "It's done, sir, it's exactly as you expected."

"How do you feel?" Mo Tan didn't talk about the business first, but asked jokingly: "Is it exciting?"

"Exciting!" Cole let out a long breath, and said with a wry smile, "It's too exciting. After I came back, I broke out in a cold sweat and my whole body was numb."

Mo Tan whistled loudly, threw himself onto the sofa in front of Cole, and said with a smile: "Just get used to it, they should be bluffed by you, right?"

The stressed young thief nodded: "Yes, I have said everything you told me before, and I basically know the details of the reward..."

Then he recounted the previous conversation with Tatami to Mo Tan.

"Hehe, they really have a way to open this thing." Mo Tan played with the small box in his hand, his elusive eyes were full of joy: "Two hundred and fifty thousand gold coins, tsk tsk, so it is such a valuable thing, Very good, very good, really good~~~”

Cole blinked: "So what's your next plan?"

Mo Tan grinned: "Go to the Thieves Guild again at night."

"Oh, I see!" Cole nodded, and then said with a smile: "Sir, you are really good, and you earned [-] gold coins with ease!"

"Idiot." Mo Tan snorted softly, his smile turned cold in an instant, and interrupted: "Do you think I plan to let you take this thing in exchange for a bounty?"

Cole froze for a moment: "Isn't it?"

"Of course not." Mo Tan shook his head and stretched out two fingers: "There are two reasons..."

Cole: "?"

"First, as long as the people over there are not fooled, then you don't plan to come back alive~" Mo Tan blinked at Cole, and said with a smile: "You will definitely die."

The latter was immediately dumbfounded: "Huh?"

"Second, I think two hundred and fifty thousand gold coins is a little short."

"what?!"
