Comprehensive network wizard, magic emperor

The Hard difficulty of Sea Spirit Altar has been unlocked.

The rewards for clearing the level are: Comprehensive Network Disaster Coins*150, General Experience*900, Gray Quality Drops, White Quality Drops (High Probability), Blue Quality Drops (Low Probability), General Skill Books (Low Probability), Knowledge Fragments (Extremely Low Probability)

In the difficult difficulty level, in addition to the elite monsters, twenty crazy villagers will spawn in the temple, making them much more difficult to deal with.

But he is still confident that he can solo it.

The final difficulty of the Sea Spirit Altar dungeon involves the appearance of a boss monster. Lin Bo is not sure if he can fight it alone. If he feels he cannot defeat it, he will find teammates to form a team.

Thinking this over, he decided to go to the dungeon chat channel to get acquainted with other players.

As soon as he opened the interface and looked through the players' chat records, Lin Bo found a familiar nickname, the Holy Knight [Barrier] brother whom he had met in the Mechanical Factory channel. This guy took newcomers to run maps every day.

Players can customize their nicknames when entering each channel, so Lin Bo cannot be sure that these two [Barriers] are the same person.

[Lighthouse Guest]: Hello everyone

[Holy Light]: A new brave man has come to this channel. The power of justice is growing day by day! Let's destroy the evil creatures together!

[I really want to eat meat]: Welcome, welcome~

[Barrier]: Hey, are you the mage from the Mechanical Factory channel?

[Lighthouse Guest]: Yes, Paladin, what a coincidence, you are here to slay demons too.

[Barrier]: (Smile) (Smile) What a coincidence, do you want to go to the dungeon together?

Chapter 61 The Wolf's Real Name

Lin Bo had a good impression of the paladin nicknamed "Bulwark," though that was mainly hearsay. He had never played map games with him in a group.

According to [Nightingale], he was led by the Paladin when he was at level 1, from the easy difficulty all the way to the infernal difficulty.

He was more than just a big partner, he was like a nanny. Not only did he help fight monsters, he also provided on-site combat instruction, helping the ignorant Wanderer to get through the novice period.

Not all paladins are good people; it all depends on the oath they take.

The oath is the code of conduct for the paladins and the source of their inner beliefs and divine power. The result of breaking the oath is often the loss of spirit and strength, becoming a useless person, or going to another dark extreme.

Different oaths are like different commandments, and a paladin must accept and obey them from the heart. Those familiar with this profession can often judge a paladin's oath by observing his words and deeds.

[Bulwark] swore an oath of dedication, the famous "White Knight" of the multiverse. The oath requires "keeping one's word, helping the needy, and leading by example", and following the principles of "honesty, courage, compassion, honor, and responsibility". He is the most orthodox and kind-hearted good guy.

The title of Paladin is a golden signboard, while the White Knight is the signboard among signs and the facade among facades.

They have dedicated their entire lives to the cause of justice, fighting against all evil, and undergoing tests of faith that are unimaginable to ordinary people. Evil demons from all realms try to seduce the holy warriors into corruption.

To the devil, the most wonderful thing is when a holy soul falls into depravity.

Because he recognized the other's character, Lin Bo was very happy to meet [Barrier] in the new dungeon. It was like meeting a friend unexpectedly.

[Lighthouse Guest]: I just received the invitation letter and haven’t unlocked the Purgatory difficulty yet

[Barrier]: Me too. I didn't expect the religious side of the dungeon to be so vicious. There are so many people suffering. I can only grant them liberation, over and over again.

[Holy Light]: You are right, brother, it is precisely because there is evil in the world that the Holy Light shines brighter!

Many echoing voices appeared in the channel.

Someone posted a message saying "Drive out evil and cleanse the world!", and everyone else repeated it, creating a lively atmosphere.

Lin Bo had seen players who were so emotional about running around in maps. Some people loved to be immersed in the game, which was called immersion. But this was the first time he had encountered such a large group of players who were so immersed in the game. It seemed that the player group of religious dungeons was also quite abnormal.

[Lighthouse Guest]: Let’s run the map together when we have time. By the way, are there any big guys from the trading platform in the channel?

[Warrior Monk - Self-cultivation and Calming]: There is no formal trading platform. I have been looking for a merchant for a long time and I am so annoyed. However, we have a small trade fair organized by ourselves in our channel, and we can exchange what we have.

Not every player can add merchants as friends. Some people are unlucky and often have to wait until they reach high-level dungeons before they can find a trading platform. At this time, they need to make use of their connections, or in short, find a purchasing agent.

Since friend invitations can only be applied for face-to-face in the dungeon channel, it is impossible to expand your social circle through friend recommendations.

For example, the Paladin [Barrier] always helps friends to buy things for free, but many players will charge an agency fee or even deliberately inflate the price, and it is not uncommon to see these unscrupulous operations that cheat people out of their money.

Traders on the trading platform have all passed an entry-level assessment. The platform will use many methods, such as signing magic contracts and delegating supervisory familiars, to limit traders' violations, so that players can feel more at ease buying and selling goods from them.

As for the goods themselves, after being notarized by Zongwang, it is unlikely that there will be counterfeits or hidden dangers.

Lin Bo added the Holy Knight [Barrier] as a friend, exchanged a few words with him, and learned that [Barrier] was also in a world without magic.

The invitation in his hand was hard-earned. It was the result of forming a local sect, spending one year and seven months to overthrow the cruel rule of a food company, and the echoes of the sect's followers' enthusiastic blood and tears.

The Holy Knight spent even longer time in low-level dungeons. He drew a large number of level 1-3 dungeons, and obtained a large amount of supplies from the dungeons to help the poor in the real world. He also made many friends on the Internet.

Lin Bo lamented that it is really not easy to be a player in the world without magic.

[Barrier]: Everything will be fine.

[Lighthouse Guest]: The Purgatory difficulty will be unlocked in two days. Let's go to the dungeon together and recruit more teammates.

They made a verbal agreement.

Lin Bo found help for himself in advance and logged off from the Sea Spirit Altar channel.

He entered the circus dungeon channel, checked the player guide, and after having a general idea in mind, he started his first challenge of the day.

[Selected instance: Mad Dwarf's Alchemy Circus]

[Current Difficulty: Easy]

[Opening the dungeon portal, players please be prepared]

The little seagull landed on his shoulder, checked his ammunition and equipment, and stepped into the transmission channel.

The scene changed, and Lin Bo was already standing in front of a half-open double iron gate.

The weather in the copy space was sunny today, and he looked at the square inside through the hollow iron fence door.

The colorful striped tents are like bright mushrooms of different sizes. There are fortune-telling stalls filled with crystals and mascots, ring-tossing games with lots of interesting prizes, and shooting games with balloons. All kinds of entertainment activities can make the whole family or young couples have a great time.

This was obviously an amusement park. The tourists were all dressed in suits and looked like urban citizens. They were of various races. Lin Bo spotted the dwarves, orcs, and halflings with distinct features at a glance.

However, the tourists were not in good condition. They were either lying on the ground or sleeping in the pool. The corpses were holding knives and pistols in their hands, and bright red blood was splattered everywhere.

An unpleasant incident occurred in a good amusement park, and the two murderers who caused this public safety accident were wandering in the open space.

The four brass anti-jointed mechanical legs made a clicking sound when they walked, the wolf-mouthed jaw was replaced with metal, and the fluffy tail was cut into a short section.

These are two twin white wolves that have undergone body modification and were once popular stars in the circus.

They kept making low purring sounds.

Lin Bo could understand that every word they said was "It hurts."

The little king on his shoulder leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Four legs, shiny, the seagull wants them too. Wings, shiny, to fly faster!"

"(magic words) They are very painful. Do you want such a change?"

The little king shut up, not because he was scared, but because he was in a dilemma.

Lin Bo is very interested in the technical means of transforming these animals. The mechanical prosthetic limbs of the two white wolves have a rare sense of smoothness, almost like living flesh and blood. This requires not only sophisticated structural design, but also an efficient sensing system.

Disability is very common among the workers in Shita Town. Broken fingers and amputations caused by work-related injuries have seriously damaged their ability to work, causing their family income to plummet and their living conditions to become difficult.

Lin Bo's Life Control Technique can certainly reshape flesh and blood, but it can only deform the remaining flesh and blood and cannot make up for the damage.

He had long planned to study prosthetic modification technology to benefit the working people and all other physically disabled patients. He could also use this to establish a medical organization to increase financial resources for the Tower Guardians and open up publicity channels.

Perhaps because they stayed at the door for too long, two wandering white wolves discovered this piece of fresh meat that had intruded into the bloody carnival.

They raised their heads and let out a terrible howl, then moved their four legs. The humming sound of the mechanical structure instantly drowned out the wolf howls, and the burst of power turned their bodies into white shadows close to the ground, charging forward at high speed.

Lin Bo watched the two wolves attack coldly.

He raised his hand to press the iron gate, chanting his real name. The next moment, the wide iron gate twisted in the wizard's hand like melting butter, and the steel crisscrossed into a spider web, which was like a ball of thick ink poured forward, and caught the two attacking wolves head-on.

The chains tightened, binding their limbs and making them unable to move. Both wolves were pulled down by inertia and fell face down in the mud. No matter how they struggled, it was useless.

buzz-

The howling of the two white wolves was barely audible over the intense engine noise of the mechanical prosthesis.

Lin Bo stood in front of the iron mesh, looking down at them, listening to their flesh and blood, under the brutal oppression of metal, yet their souls still burst forth with the will to survive and intense hatred.

In such silence, the wolf's real name also loomed before his eyes.

Chapter 62 The Mad Dwarf's Private Collection

Lin Bo did not kill the two transformed white wolves immediately, but sat cross-legged in front of the iron net.

In order to keep the two beasts' hatred and radicalism and prevent them from giving up their will to resist, he placed his hands on their heads as if stroking an obedient puppy.

Unwilling to be humiliated, the transformed white wolf struggled even more violently, but the wolf kiss that had just opened was immediately bound by the contracting iron chain and tightly closed.

The bound white wolf twisted in the net, its eyes bloodshot and red, its deep throat gurgling and rolling, constantly releasing threatening attack signals.

Lin Bo closed his eyes and fell into a deep state of suspended animation, trying to find out the real name.

The words of the metal prosthesis were sharp and loud. They told of the strange structure buried in the body and how the white wolf's flesh and blood body was forced to accept its own power.

Suppressed to the deepest depths by the harsh and terrifying metallic howl were the howls in the throats of the two white wolves, endless words of hatred, and a trace of lingering attachment, recalling the simple and wild life they once had in the snowfield.

The True Name Mage's mind chased the White Wolf's words, catching a glimpse of them hunting, playing, basking in the sun, and grooming their fur in their distant homeland. He wandered deep in the White Wolf's memory like a ghost.

Gradually, from flesh and blood to soul, a complete true name rune appeared in Lin Bo's mind.

He already knew the true name of the specific race of white wolves, which was not universally applicable to other wolf species.

In the Crazy Dwarf's Alchemy Circus, there are quite a few animals that have been transformed, and there are many kinds of them. For Lin Bo, this is also a blessed place. It is a good thing to be able to find out the real names of several more animals and increase his knowledge reserves.

After waking up from suspended animation, Lin Bo did not rush to open his eyes. Instead, he continued to hold the two wolves' heads with his hands, sensing their bodies with tactile endoscopy. Their internal structures gradually appeared in his field of vision in the form of white outlines.

Branch-like metal wires extended from the mechanical brass limbs, piercing through the flesh and drilling into the wolf's spine. This was a crude transformation operation performed by the mad dwarf. There were traces of violent chiseling on the spine, and the drill holes in the bones were blocked with solder.

The metal wire transmits nerve signals to control the limbs, and also releases high heat. The surrounding flesh and blood are carbonized and fester, and dirty blood flows out of the amputation wound along the fistula.

The organs were severely diseased, with tumors as numerous as grapes on a vine, severely compressing the peripheral nerves, but the organs were functioning very healthily, even somewhat overactive, with the heart beating faster than the rhythm of a snare drum.

The internal mechanisms of the four modified metal limbs were indeed ingenious, but the most peculiar thing was the dense metal wires, like nerve bundles and tree roots, connecting every gear, hinge, and transmission rod. Every movement was the result of these metal neurons controlling the orderly operation of thousands of mechanical structures.

The crazy dwarf's transformation technology has broadened Lin Bo's horizons.

This has gone beyond ordinary mechanical engineering and involves the field of arcane science.

The two most mysterious components inside the brass prosthesis, besides the neuron wire, are the energy engine.
