How Level Zero Devil Destroys Player Experience

A classic plot unfolded, and I couldn't help but twitch my lips when I saw it. Although Brandi's approach was the most appropriate decision for the entire team, if he gave up like this, did it also mean that his mission had failed?

After working so hard for so long, this is the result in the end. What's the point of getting involved?

My mind was racing with thoughts, there must be something I'm missing.

Thinking of Brandi's previous memories and his previous discoveries in the stone chamber, a flash of inspiration suddenly came to him.

"Sister Orianna, I've got an idea. Please release the sarcophagus from the arcane space first."

Aureliana, who was still arguing with Brandi, was somewhat skeptical when she heard my voice. Finally, after my repeated pleading, she released the sarcophagus containing Nobs' body.

boom.

The huge sarcophagus fell to the ground with a loud bang.

Ignoring the rising smoke and dust, I took a few steps closer and reached out to touch the secret compartment underneath. Because it had been opened before, with a click, the mechanism of the secret compartment was instantly opened without any waiting time.

There should have been nothing there, after all, I had already searched it before. But at that time, I was concerned about the presence of the Jackal Leader and did not search it carefully.

Just as I reached out and explored carefully, I finally found a corner that I had missed. I took out a bead engraved with strange patterns from it. Holding it in my hand, I seemed to be able to feel the fluctuations of some mysterious power in it.

"This is... Nobus's contract object. How could it be kept here by my grandfather?!"

Seeing the bead, Brandi next to him showed a look of shock.

Contract item?

I was stunned and recalled the word.

Tamers usually sign three types of contracts with wild beasts: temporary contracts, equal contracts, and soul contracts.

The soul contract is the most special contract among them. Once signed, it is equivalent to the binding of the souls of both parties. Unless they die of old age and their souls return to the earth, they share life and cannot abandon each other.

Although the price is heavy, on the other hand, because they have the same thoughts, the tamer and the contracted beast can unleash more powerful power.

Contracts also need to be stored on specific items. Parchment scrolls, rings, necklaces, etc. are all types of contract objects. These contract objects are generally the most treasured by the trainer.

The glass bead in front of me looks very ordinary and there is nothing special about it.

But the next moment, Brandi answered my question.

"This is... the glass bead I gave to my grandfather on his birthday when I was a child. It turns out he has always regarded it as a treasure..."

Brandi's mumbling voice was heard, and as he stretched out his hand to clench the glass bead, an old voice suddenly appeared in the cave and in everyone's ears.

"I think the person who can trigger this contract is you, my dear little Brandi. No matter what you are facing now, hold your head up. This is the last time I will teach you."

"The strength of a tamer does not lie in himself, but in his determination to grow with his contracted beast and his resolve to face difficulties together with it."

The glass beads suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and Brandi seemed like a different person, revealing a calm and wise temperament.

Not only that, a bright light also emerged from the released sarcophagus, and a familiar wolf shadow rushed to Nar in front, sweeping away the surrounding jackals.

Nar didn't know what was happening, he just felt that the light was soft and warm.

As the light flowed, Nar underwent a strange change. His hair became darker, his body became larger, and his aura became more fierce. He seemed to be the reincarnation of the former Nobs, but appeared younger, sharper, and more vigorous.

Ouch——

Nar let out a loud roar, his eyes sparkling brightly, as if he was very satisfied with his new appearance, or perhaps he was excited to fight side by side with the strong ones of his species that he could feel inside his body.

The crowd, who were already surprised by the changes in Brandi and Nar, suddenly discovered that the surrounding jackals had stopped attacking at some point and lined up in an orderly manner around them.

Roar--

And when Nar roared, another sharp wolf howl sounded as if in response.

The jackal leader walked slowly over and stopped not far in front of Nar, casting a burning gaze at him.

Orianna was stunned and was about to raise her hand to attack, but was stopped by Jarvan, who motioned for her and the people around her to look at the other party.

Different from his previous ferocity and cruelty, the Jackal Leader at this moment was just like a pure challenger, with only enthusiasm for battle and admiration for the strong.

"Nobs." Brandi slowly stepped down from the stone platform and gently stroked Nar's soft hair with his hand. "Let us fight side by side one last time."

Chapter 111 Mission Settlement

The battle was fierce.

The two agile figures collided and entangled with each other, using their sharp claws to hurt each other, leaving bloody marks belonging to the fighting race.

It seems to be full of danger.

However, with the same thoughts as "Branti", "Nar" finally burst out with extremely powerful strength. After taking a few steps back to build up strength, his figure turned into a swift blue lightning, and blasted the Jackal Leader more than 20 yards away in one fell swoop.

boom--

The huge body fell to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Although the Jackal Leader could still get up, he did not do so because he had already accepted himself as a loser and the other party as a strong one of the species.

In contrast, "Nar" let out a loud howl, and all the gnolls around him prostrated themselves on the ground like devout believers.

"Okay, Nobbs, we should go."

Brandi came over and touched the hair on Nar's forehead. Nar closed his wolf eyes and howled in response, "I think these two children should be able to carry our will and move forward bravely."

Just like old friends who have known each other for many years saying goodbye to each other, even if the object is between a man and a beast, it seems very natural in the eyes of everyone, without any abruptness, and very warm.

Infected by this atmosphere, the very emotional Lillian and Novia couldn't help wiping the moisture from their eyes, and even the calm Jarvan couldn't help but be moved.

Two invisible shadows disappeared from Brandi and Nar's bodies.

"Roar?"

His body shape returned to its original state, but Nar, who had retained some changes, made a confused sound, as if he didn't understand what had happened before.

Brandi next to him looked down at the glass bead in his hand, carefully put it in his pocket, and walked towards the jackal leader who stood up from the ground in the distance.

The Jackal Chief had no ill will towards Brandi's approach, and even looked somewhat respectful.

After the two communicated for a while in a special language, the Jackal Leader nodded slightly, half-knelt down and bowed to Brandi to show his respect, then howled a few times at the surrounding jackals.

Three jackal overseers and a dozen patrolmen came out and lifted up the sarcophagus containing Nobs' body on the ground.

Everyone was shocked and subconsciously wanted to stop it, but Bran spoke up to stop them.

Brandi smiled and gently stroked the soft fur of Nar next to him. "Let them take Nobs back. After all, his soul belongs to this forest."

Watching the gradually disappearing figure of the Jackal Commander and his men transporting the sarcophagus back, and listening to Brandi's explanation on the way back to Antia, everyone including me finally understood.

The previous glass beads still retained the residual will of Brandi's grandfather and Nobs, and those jackals were also found by Brandi's grandfather to guard Nobs's body.

Because the jackals worship the strong, Brandi's grandfather and Nobbs fought during their lifetime and made the Jackal Leader recognize their strength.

Brandi learned this through the memories passed down from her grandfather's will left in the glass bead.

His grandfather wanted him to live a normal life, so he didn't tell him all this. But if Brandi can find the previous stone chamber and discover Nobs's body, still as a tamer, it will prove that there is a will of heaven.

He had arranged all of this in advance so that it would work, and the two residual wills left in the glass beads could also teach Brandi and his contracted beast, the wolf Nar, a final lesson -

Perform a demonstration battle with the Jackal Leader.

From the unique spirit that Brandi is radiating at this moment and the more imposing aura of Nar, it can be seen that they have gained a lot from this lesson.

"However, my grandfather hopes that I can have those jackals take Nobus's body back and bury it in the stone chamber he built for Nobus."

"After all, they can fight for their dreams and accompany each other with all their might during their lifetime. After death, they still hope to be able to accompany them more. They ignored too many things during their lifetime."

"Nobs is the forest that gave birth to it."

Brandi's eyes were filled with nostalgia, as if she was lost in an old but warm memory. "And grandpa wanted to be with grandma, father, mother, and of course me, his family."

Everyone was speechless, as if they could gain their own insights from Brandi's words.

Even I couldn't help but feel a little touched after hearing these words. In my previous life, I experienced a lot but ended up being very lonely. But after being reborn, I have a new life now.

Not only were my parents safe and sound and returned to a warm life, I also met many lovely friends.

"Brother Brandi." I smiled slightly, "I think what your grandfather wants to tell you is to cherish what you have now and not wait until you miss it to regret it."

"Take care of what is in front of you..."

Brandi was stunned and muttered these words to himself. After a moment's silence, he looked up at his companions around him and Nar who was wagging his tail beside him. He smiled slightly with a look of unusual seriousness.

"Oliana, Lillian, Novia, Jarvan, Quinton, Carl, thank you for always helping me so much."

"Why... why are you so serious all of a sudden..." Orianna turned her head away.

"That's right, didn't you see that our Anna was blushing?"

Novia and Lillian teased.

Quinton even put his arm around Brandi's neck and said, "Be more formal next time, Brandi."

Garen and Carl were watching with amusement, but Brandi was the only one who looked dazed and confused. It seemed that this guy was not only a fool, but also an idiot in some aspects.

After returning to Antia, everyone said goodbye one by one in front of Brandi's shop.

I followed Brandi into the store with a worried look on my face. Although I had gained some insights from what I had heard earlier, I was more worried about whether the task had been completed.

Fortunately, Brandi seemed to see my worry. She stroked Nar's fur, told him to go to the inner room, then turned to thank me.

"Thank you, Miss Yitong. Although Nobus's body remains in the Zeyue Mountains according to my grandfather's wishes, I am deeply grateful for your help all the time."

"These pieces of equipment were obtained from a ruin when my grandfather and Nobbs were adventuring outside when he was young. They are no longer of much use to me, but I think they should be suitable for you."

Brandi took out five pieces of equipment from the counter and handed them to me.

A complete mage set, especially suitable for the professions of Dark Word Mage, Warlock, and Shadow Priest.

I think it is due to the reward matching mechanism set up by the system. If a player with the warrior profession completes the game, he will probably be matched with a warrior suit to prevent some African players from quitting the game because of the card draw.

This suit, called [The Whisperer], is comparable to the most powerful dark gold suits on the market in terms of attributes alone, and the accompanying suit skills are equally useful.

[Secret Code Field]: After the field is opened, all targets within a 30-yard circular range (including yourself) will enter a silent, slow, or withered state during the duration. They cannot be removed by ordinary purification. The duration is 10 seconds, with a cooldown of 2 hours. The number of storage times is 3/3 times.

[Secret Transfer]: After use, you can transfer all your negative states to the designated target and establish a link. All negative states will continue to be transferred within the next 15 seconds. The cooldown time is 2 hours. The number of storage times: 3/3 times.

Obviously, these two skills complement each other and form a self-contained system. Even if viewed separately, they can be of great use at critical moments.

Chapter 112 Special Rewards

Just looking at this familiar description, I couldn't help but recall the terrain and matching monster attributes that I had arranged more than two months ago.

If I didn't know that the other party would not have the leisure to do such a little trick, I could not help but suspect that this was set up by Alice on purpose to tease me.

"Thank you, Brother Brandi, these pieces of equipment are of great help to me."

The Secret Whisperer's set effect only requires wearing four pieces to reach the highest level of the two accompanying set skills, and I now have the bonus of the Ensembler's Movement.

So after comparing them, I simply replaced three pieces of equipment with weaker attributes.

The other two items of the Shadowtalker can also make up the lowest-level Shadowtalk Field and Shadowtalk Transfer, which can be thrown into the guild warehouse and left to the more outstanding Shadowtalk Mages, Warlocks or Shadow Priests in the guild.

After putting the two Whisperer suits into my backpack, I raised my head and looked at Brandi again with burning eyes.

As a reward for a series of tasks that I have been busy with for so many days, this set of dark gold equipment is obviously enough, but I remember that there is also a special reward column after completing this task.

Moreover, judging from the performance of Brandi and his companions, my previous evaluation during the mission must have been excellent enough. I can't help but look forward to the extent to which the special reward will be increased under this circumstance.

However, just as I was about to ask, Nar, who had been coaxed into the inner room by Brandi, ran out again with something in his mouth.

I took a curious look and found that it was the [Nobs' Fang] that I gave to the other party in the beginning to trigger the mission.

"We originally wanted to preserve the integrity of Nobs' body, but now it seems unnecessary. Nobs' soul is free and does not need to be bound by the flesh."

Brandi smiled and rubbed Nar's soft neck hair, took the fang out of its mouth, and asked me, "Miss Yitong, do you know that according to legend, the wargs originated from Fenrir's bloodline, and even among all wild beasts, they are a group with a strong bloodline."

"Amethe is the name of this bloodline, and in the beast pack this word means the worship of the strong. The powerful strength can make the wolf clan gain the respect of many beast packs."

"Even after Nobus's death, this bloodline still exists and resides in his body. Of course, this fang also has his will. It only needs to be forged accordingly, and the one carrying it will receive the same treatment."

"However, due to my limited forging skills, I can only keep some of them. Or, Miss Tong, you can also choose a certain direction to forge. Although it can only be effective for a single type of beast, the effect will be much better."

Respect from the herd?

Could it be...

I suddenly thought of the plan I had prepared earlier. An idea flashed in my mind, and I asked tentatively, "Can it be forged along the direction of the fox population?"

"of course can."

Brandi nodded.
