Paradise: Ready Player One

The faces of the villagers were filled with joy.

As for who killed the monster, they were not interested in thinking about it.

Chen Ming came out from the alley and asked the passing villagers where the local shops were located.

With Chen Ming's charm, the young woman who was stopped couldn't resist at all, and took the initiative to lead him to the door of the shop.

After Chen Ming expressed his gratitude to the enthusiastic villager, he walked into the store under the regretful eyes of the other party, and went directly to the owner of the store and asked

"Do you have a map of the surrounding area for sale?"

"some"

The boss looked Chen Ming up and down, and his eyes lit up a little, knowing that this was a big business, so he hurried over to greet him enthusiastically.

"Exchange some currency by the way"

As Chen Ming said, he took out a few gold particles the size of fingernails and sprinkled them on the table.

The bright luster immediately caught the boss's attention, and he immediately showed a speed that didn't match his age, stepped forward and swept the gold into his arms, with a smile on his face.

"Wait a minute, I'll bring you something right away"

Chen Ming nodded. All these golds were bought in the paradise.

Hundreds of Paradise coins can be exchanged for several catties.

As a precious metal, gold can be used as a hard currency in most derivative worlds.

It's just that Chen Ming's blatant behavior attracted the greedy eyes of many people.

Chen Ming didn't care about it at all.

Not long after, the boss came out with what Chen Ming wanted.

Chen Ming took the map and scanned it. It was a very crude map, but it was better than nothing. Then he took a bag of heavy coins with one hand, refused the boss's persuasion, turned around and left.

Several people sitting in the store looked at each other and followed quietly.

Chapter 157 Babyface's Great Sword

After a while, Chen Ming patted the dust off his hands, and left the street. Behind him lay a lot of people crookedly, making pained moaning noises.

These guys can't die, but at least they have to lie in bed for several months.

And with the medical technology here, it is impossible not to leave sequelae.

The price can be said to be heavy, but this is what they found for themselves.

Robbing this kind of technical work is not something ordinary people can do.

Facts have proved that these punks don't have the talent to rob houses, and they don't even have the most basic vision.

That is to say, if he met Chen Ming, if he were any other ruthless guy, he might not even have a chance to catch his breath now.

Thinking about it this way, Chen Ming is really very Asahi, no wonder he is so popular with girls.

After experiencing the simple folk customs in the village, Chen Ming prepared to go to the nearest town to the village according to the guidance on the map, where more people came and went.

It is more likely to come into contact with Dajian or the "organization" personnel behind it.

As Nanyan said, if you want to get higher settlement rewards, you still have to hunt the awakened ones, even the abyssal ones.

The so-called abyssal beings are actually awakened ones in essence.

It was only because his strength exceeded the standard of an awakened person that he was given the title of Abyssal One.

These abyssal warriors are ranked no.1 among the great swords of all ages, either because of accidents, or because of the awakening of their own will.

Once the great sword is awakened, its strength will be frozen, and there is no way to improve it, so the number of abyssalists is very rare.

Because becoming an abyssist has nothing to do with the acquired efforts.

But there is another troublesome thing about hunting a large number of awakened people. The monsters don't like to live in groups, and they all act alone. The awakened people usually inherit this habit.

Not without exception.

For example, in the first generation of the great sword, Iris of the North, who had the title of King of Silver, was also the strongest of the three Abyssal Ones, and he was different from ordinary awakened ones.

There are many awakened people under his command, all of whom were male swordsmen from the same period.

That's right, Dajian was not originally a woman, but a man.

It's just because male swords are more likely to lose control and awaken, so women were uniformly selected as the swords later.

If the strength is sufficient, Elis is undoubtedly the best hunting target.

Chen Ming feels that he has the ability to become fat in one breath, but the problem is that he doesn't know what period he is in now, and he doesn't even know whether the silver king is still alive, so how do you let him hunt.

Even if Elis is still alive, it is known that he is entrenched in the north of the island, but where is the identity?

Is it possible to really try your luck like a headless chicken?

Although Chen Ming was quite confident in his luck, this kind of behavior was a bit too stupid.

That's why Chen Ming is now thinking about finding a great sword and collecting the information he wants from her, so that he can decide the next course of action.

What he didn't know was that he had just left the village.

A tall woman with silver eyes and a big sword came to the village.

The big sword had just stepped into the village, and was strongly rejected by the villagers. Looking at her, it was full of undisguised disgust and fear.

Even if the other party is here to kill demons.

This can't be blamed on the ignorance of the villagers, because the big sword transplanted with the organs of demons does have the risk of getting out of control.

Especially in the process of fighting with monsters, the big sword needs to release its own monster power.

This is actually accelerating the process of awakening.

If you are not careful, you may become an awakened person, bringing about even more terrifying killings.

This kind of thing didn't happen.

Therefore, unless forced to, the village would not entrust the big sword to hunt and kill monsters.

"Didn't you entrust me to kill the demon? Why don't you plan to let me into the village now?"

Dajian asked blankly, her closed heart would no longer cause any waves because of this look.

"You are no longer needed, the monster has been killed, please go back where you came from!"

The village chief stood up and said with a trembling voice.

Even though he knew that the "organization" behind the great sword had regulations that could not harm human beings, he still couldn't control the fear in his heart.

Because in the chest cavity of the big sword, there are genuine monster organs.

The fear of demons has been deeply engraved into the souls of these people for hundreds of years.

Hearing the words, the big sword looked sideways, and found the headless demon corpse behind the villagers, and couldn't help frowning.

Each big sword has its own area of ​​responsibility, unless the responsible big sword dies, the "organization" will not send big swords to intervene in other people's entrustments.

Therefore, it is impossible for this monster to be killed by other great swords.

But if it wasn't for the great sword, who would be able to cut off the monster's head so cleanly.

You must know that the skin of a monster is very tough, and it is difficult for ordinary sharp weapons to cut through the skin, let alone a spine comparable to steel.

This never-before-encountered situation made the big sword a little bit at a loss. Even if she wanted to go up and check it out, she knew that there was no chance from the meaning of the villagers.

"If that's the case, the entrustment ends here."

Dajian said lightly, turned and left, preparing to inform the "organization" of the "man in black" who was in charge of contacting and assigning tasks what happened here.

It's just that not long after she left, a dozen people followed behind her.

Unfortunately, Chen Ming encountered another group of bandits.

This group is more formal than the gangsters in the village, there are a total of twenty or so individuals.

Occupies the only main road leading to the town.

All of them were armed with sharp weapons and had evil eyes. They were obviously the ones who would draw their knives and cut people at the slightest disagreement.

The life of the people living on this island is not much better.

Not only because of the existence of demons, but also because of the exploitation from the "organization".

Every time the cost of entrusting the great sword is almost exhausted, a village can barely be made up.

The reason for such a high commission fee is not only that the "organization" research requires a lot of money, but also to better control the entire island.

This kind of economic exploitation is enough to deprive the people living on the island of the possibility of development and progress.

Only in this way can it be better for the "organization" to conduct experiments here.

Once you understand this, you can also understand why these bandits can be seen everywhere.

Many of them were forced to have nowhere to go.

In the middle ages, people had no room to resist in front of monsters. The only way was to entrust a big sword to kill the monsters.

It seems that Dajian is standing on the standpoint of human beings, but please don't treat Dajian as a good person.

The "organization" cultivated the sword, and it was aimed at cultivating biological weapons from the very beginning. It was brainwashed from an early age and instilled with the ideology that the "organization" needed.

Benevolence, kindness and so on have basically nothing to do with Dajian.

If he hadn't been entrusted, Dajian wouldn't even take the initiative to hunt and kill monsters.

Once the village can't afford the cost of hiring a big sword, the only way for the villagers to survive is to escape from the village here.

If you are lucky, there may be villages willing to take them in, but if you are unlucky, most of them died on the way.

In this case, it is only natural for bandits to run rampant.

"Hey! You kid, leave me everything on your body, and take off all your clothes!"

The bandit leader said with a smirk, obviously he felt that the twenty or so people of his own would be sure of Chen Ming.

Do you look so bullied?

Chen Ming became suspicious. Just as he was about to make a move, a figure appeared behind him, and Chen Ming looked back sharply.
