This isn't a souls-like game at all.

She held a folded parchment scroll in both hands and handed it to Ye Yiyi respectfully.

"Customer, meow~ This is something the store manager left for someone who can pull out this weapon, meow~"

"Oh?"

He took the parchment scroll curiously and took a look at it, and a light curtain popped up.

[Location Map: Ownerless Magician Tower]

Chapter 224 Curse Control and Fungal Zombies

[Location Map: Ownerless Magician Tower]

Item Description: A fragment of a map containing many ownerless magician towers.

The marked location will appear on the light screen to determine the direction of travel.

It is said that after the Great Hunt, the magician community withdrew from the southern border.

The magician's tower located in the southern border areas also lost its owner.

It becomes a hiding place for demons and curse-bearers.

"This is……"

After looking at the light screen, Ye Yiyi looked up at the cat doll in surprise and doubt.

"This is what the store manager requested, meow."

The cat doll swung its big furry tail behind it, and a hint of respect appeared in its deep blue vertical pupils.

"The store manager once said, meow, if you have any questions about this, you can go to the capital of the Rodno Empire and look for him in the Gold Casting Palace in the Hall of Stopping War."

"Golden Palace..."

Ye Yiyi frowned and murmured the word softly.

It seems that the store manager is indeed a skilled craftsman and the chief magician of the Gold Casting Palace, but the map he gave him has some subtle meanings.

Because the item descriptions on the map mention demons and curse riders.

Let’s not talk about the former for now, the important thing is the Curse Master!

The curse-controller is different from the cursed. As the name suggests, the former is the one who controls the curse.

They are followers of the kings who were once afflicted by the curse, and they are also advocates of the stagnant curse.

If Ye Yiyi remembered correctly, the first time he met the Curse Master in the game was when he defeated any Decadence King and returned to the border from the alien planet.

At that time, the player will be mistakenly teleported to a camp of curse-controllers, and one of the leaders of the curse-controllers will use their mouths to fool the player and lure the player into joining the curse-controllers' team.

What’s interesting is that no matter what choice the player makes at that time, the leader will refuse the player from joining on the grounds that “I didn’t think it through enough”.

He will then give the player an invasion item for a fixed object, and ask the player to conduct an invasion on the pretext of "seeing the truth."

And this is the beginning of a series of pre-commissions for the ending of the game "Cursed King".

Ye Yiyi knew that the purpose of the Curse Master was to allow the original stagnation curse to come completely.

He also knew that the leader of the Curse Masters could drop a very cool sickle and a very fashionable spell of kings.

The Kingchoir Knight encountered during a fixed invasion will drop a very cool large curved sword blueprint and a sorcery of kings with full damage.

But he didn't know anything else about the game's plot, including why the Curse Masters were hunting down magicians.

I believe this map may be able to bring him some answers.

"I understand. If I have the chance, I will go."

He nodded to the cat doll, and while the other party was bowing, he stuffed the parchment scroll and the Moonlight Gun into the four-dimensional chrysanthemum.

"In that case, the guest can take this Moonlight Spear away, meow... meow? Weapon, meow?"

The cat doll raised its head and stared at Ye Yiyi with empty hands.

"This is the special effect of that weapon."

Ye Yiyi was talking nonsense casually, and relied on the four-dimensional chrysanthemum to make the spear appear and disappear, which made the cat doll look at him with envy.

After all, he couldn't possibly return to the upper floors with this conspicuous "light stick"? That would be too conspicuous.

He took the elevator back to the upper floor from the basement and returned to the shooting range on the first floor with the weapons he had bought.

In addition to coming to see Bai Yu, he also planned to try out his newly purchased weapons.

After entering the shooting range, he looked around and found that Bai Yu's position was surrounded by other customers in the store.

He glanced inside and immediately saw the female knight who was a head taller than everyone else.

Several men wearing long trench coats, wide-brimmed hats, and carrying weapons behind their backs were surrounding her and chattering about something.

The female knight's expression was obviously a little impatient. She said something coldly, picked up the big sword beside her and walked straight out.

Seeing this, the crowd of onlookers made way until she was blocked by a man in a black windbreaker.

"I've made it clear enough. I'm not interested in your commission... Wait, are you Michaela?"

The female knight spoke impatiently with her eyes downcast, and suddenly felt something was wrong. She looked up and found that the man in the windbreaker in front of her was Ye Yiyi.

"What's going on with you?"

Ye Yiyi, who was carrying large and small bags and had all kinds of strange weapons hanging behind her, raised her eyebrows and turned her head to glance at the people chasing her.

"Sir Bai Yu! Please believe us, we sincerely invite you to join us!"

The man in the windbreaker who was leading the group was delighted when he saw Bai Yu stop, thinking that the other party had changed his mind, but then he saw Ye Yiyi sticking his head out from the side.

"Another? Companion?"

The man in the windbreaker was stunned for a moment, then his smile widened, "I believe that the companion who can travel with Miss Bai Yu must also be an expert!

"Sir! Are you interested in joining our temporary team and taking on a lucrative commission from the City Hall?"

"You saw it too..." Bai Yu sighed slightly, "I was just testing weapons at the shooting range, and out of nowhere, these bounty hunters came over and asked if I wanted to work on a commission together."

"I see." Ye Yiyi suddenly realized and teased with a smile: "I guess it's because your strength is too strong, sister, so they took a fancy to you, right?"

"elder sister?"

Bai Yu stood there in a daze. Before she could react to the name, she saw Ye Yiyi talking to those people.

"Good evening, everyone. I'm Michaela, and this is my sister. What's your name?"

"Sister? Lord Bai Yu's younger brother?"

The man in the windbreaker was slightly stunned, then looked up and down at Ye Yiyi's windbreaker and the brand new weapon hanging behind him, and couldn't help swallowing.

Wow! Whose rich kid is this? He's wearing all the latest Kit Kat goods, even the labels haven't been removed!

"Cough cough..."

The man in the windbreaker came to his senses after being reminded by his companion. He quickly took off his wide-brimmed hat, stretched out his hand to Ye Yiyi with a smile, and introduced himself.

"It's you, Miss Michaela. Nice to meet you! I'm Wator, a bounty hunter."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Wattol."

Ye Yiyi also stretched out her hand to shake hands with the other party.

By the way, the etiquette of shaking hands when meeting someone is very common even in the Principality of Rite, which borders the south.

But generally speaking, this etiquette is only used to express greetings between knights or soldiers of the same rank. Before shaking hands, they need to take off the armor on their right hand and shake hands with bare hands.

On the eastern border, the etiquette of shaking hands seems to have been deeply rooted in the people and is extremely common.

After shaking hands, Ye Yiyi asked naturally.

"Mr. Wattold, I wonder what exactly this commission issued by the City Hall that you are referring to?"

Wattol looked around and lowered his voice.

"It's about the Earth Mother Church and the Knights of the Treespear... This isn't the place to talk, could you please move?"

Ye Yiyi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded in Bai Yu's confused gaze and said:

"It's time to move to a quieter place. Please wait a moment, sir. I'll explain things to my sister first..."

"I see! I see!" Wattol was delighted.

So Ye Yiyi pulled the puzzled Bai Yu aside.

"Michaela, why did you agree to their request?" The female knight found it hard to understand. "Don't we have important things to do?"

"Just talking, I haven't agreed yet."

Ye Yiyi waved at Bai Yu, motioning her to lower her head, and whispered in her ear.

"He just mentioned the Church of the Earth Mother and the Treespear Knights. I thought there might be something behind it, so I agreed.

"Anyway, let's talk to them first. If it's not related to what we're doing, it's not too late to refuse."

"I understand!" After Jing Ye's guidance, Bai Yu suddenly became enlightened.

But this way, I have time to try out the new weapons I just got.

But Ye Yiyi was not in a hurry. She turned her head and nodded in the direction of Wator, then took Bai Yu to the ground and helped her settle the bill.

What surprised Ye Yiyi was that, in addition to buying a lot of items that helped with stealth, Bai Yu only bought a transformable greatsword as a weapon.

"Why don't you take a little more? Look at me."

He turned around and showed Bai Yu the various weapons on his back, waist, and a pile of packaged weapons.

The female knight scratched the back of her head a little embarrassedly, holding the newly bought greatsword tightly in her arms without letting go.

"This is all I need. I'd feel bad if Michaela spent too much money..."

"Is that so? Hey~~" Ye Yiyi pretended to sigh, "It seems that you still treat me as an outsider..."

“Ah? I’m not…!”

Seeing the gossipy looks from Wator and others who were waiting not far away, the female knight blushed anxiously. She wanted to speak to explain, but she couldn't say anything.

Finally, she sighed helplessly and took the weapon boxes that she had bought in duplicate from Ye Yiyi.

"So I was very foresighted and bought two of each."

Looking at Ye Yiyi's sly smile at her, the female knight bit her lip tightly. It was not until the group arrived at a nearby restaurant and sat down in a private room that she smiled brightly at the various novel weapons in the box.

Although Tongtianshu is not on the coast, it is located next to a big river, so one of the main features here is the various river seafood.

Ye Yiyi even saw silver swordfish dishes on the restaurant's menu!

Of course, the price is also ridiculously high. A plate of silver swordfish fillets, with fish weighing no more than 150 grams, costs a full 12 yuan when converted into imperial currency.

Roughly converted into the price of Ye Yiyi's previous life, it is nearly 1200 yuan.

Of course, the world is different, and the prices are not the same as those in the empire's mainland, so the prices cannot be calculated in this way, but it is enough to prove the value of the empire's currency.

According to Bai Yu, the imperial banknotes are directly linked to the prices of gold and various rare metals.

Such a lavish meal stunned Wattol and his friends.

They are just bounty hunters with a little bit of ability. Have they ever seen such a powerful rich man?

After wiping his mouth with the silk scarf provided by the restaurant, Ye Yiyi, who was very satisfied with the meal, started to talk nonsense as soon as he opened his mouth.

"To be honest, I'm actually a magician apprentice at the Xingdou Palace of the Zhige Hall. I came back to visit my sister."

Hearing this, Wattol and the others finally showed a look of realization.

No wonder he is so rich, he is a magician!

This is not surprising!

As everyone knows, the Zhige Hall makes money by selling magic props. This monopoly product makes a lot of money, so becoming a magician has become the dream of countless people who want to stand out.

After successfully fooling these bounty hunters, Wator finally started to talk about business.

"This is a commission issued by the Catman Bishop of the Earth Mother Cult, accepted by the Knight Bureau, and then issued by the Tongtianshu City Hall.

"We need to go deep into the ancient ruins beneath the Earth Mother Church to deal with the fungal zombies for them."

Wator's words were shocking. Not only did Bai Yu's eyes shift away from his weapon, but even Ye Yiyi curled up the corners of his mouth and showed an interested expression.

"Tell me more about the fungal zombies."
