Chapter 51 Prologue
This is the Silver Hunter's badge...Surman's eyes lit up, the moment he took the badge.
A familiar reminder came from my ears—
[Tip: You have successfully joined the 'Bounty Guild' camp, meet the trigger conditions, and open the camp panel.]
[Tip: For specific details of the camp functions, please read the instruction manual......]
[Tip: Your identity in the ‘Borrow Guild’ is the Silver Hunter. At present, the favorability of the camp has increased to ‘friendly’.]
A series of prompt messages came, and Surman swept it lightly and captured the key point. He had joined the "Borrow Guild" camp.
In the Eternal Night World, the so-called camps do not limit the number. In theory, players can join unlimited different camps, but they each have their pros and cons. After you join the camp, you can trigger special events that belong to the camp, that is, plot tasks.
For example, some commissions are real members of the Bounty Guild to get the content. Otherwise, even if you know its trigger location, you cannot get the task. This is the biggest feature of the faction function.
In addition, some camps are hostile to each other.
When you join one of them, you cannot meet the conditions for joining the hostile camp. Therefore, in theory, you can join countless camps, but in actual execution, due to the pros and cons of the camp, the number range is often limited to three or four.
Further up the number, due to faction conflicts and restricting task triggering conditions, it does more harm than good.
Among all factions, the Bounty Guild is the least restrictive.
Because other camps, such as ancient nobles, such as the Church of the Orthodox God, often have entrusted tasks to seek help from bounty hunters.
As a real member of the Bounty Guild, he will not limit the amount of quests to obtain, but instead expands the task triggering area. Because of this, Surman has made the Bounty Guild the first target, and now he has successfully joined the camp as he wishes.
If you join the ancient nobles, although there are special events that belong to them, the reward will be generous.
But on the contrary, the former also lost the commission of the Orthodox Church, and the same is true for camp exchanges. This is the disadvantage of joining the camp.
"I am a silver hunter now, and my favorability is increased to 'friendly'..." Surman pinned the badge on his chest, silently recalling in his heart, with a setting about favorability.
Likelihood is an advanced indicator of camp forces. Some special events not only limit the camp, but also limit the favorable level.
From low to high, favorability is divided into-
Hate, cold, ordinary, friendly, respectful, worshipful.
Among them, before joining the camp, favorability is increased to the "friendly" level at most (locking the upper limit). Surman is a reverse case. His favorability is not enough to upgrade, but he joined the camp first, so favorability is directly raised to the minimum standard - friendly.
Before reaching the next level, the favorability gained by the plot events (tasks) will be superimposed. For example, if the favorability gained by Surman in the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce is superimposed to a certain level, it will be promoted to "friendly".
Of course, Surman joins the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce and is also a way to do it. However, the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce has too small force, which is not on the same level as the Bounty Guild, and the two are very different.
Moreover, after joining the small chamber of commerce, due to the position of the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce, Surman could not trigger many events, so he rejected the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce's proposal... The temple is too small to accommodate him.
To a certain extent, favorability can reflect the attitude of the camp members towards him, but it is not an absolute equal sign, because favorability is mainly used to trigger events and is limited to its own panel and does not affect others' impression of him - the panel can never affect others.
At this moment, Surman increasingly realized the authenticity of this world. The character panel was a "small loophole" left on him in his previous life, which gave Surman a little capital to save his life in the dangerous eternal night world.
"Congratulations, for being my colleague."
Scarcey smiled and congratulated him, then glanced at the pocket watch, hugged her arms and said, "What a pity, Katy and Lake are just gray iron hunters, and are not qualified to participate in this kind of mission, even if they have my guarantee..."
"You don't seem to be nervous at all? We are clearly carrying out important protection tasks." Surman was a little curious.
"Surman, some things will only happen once." Scarcey reminded him seriously in an inexplicable tone: "Don't underestimate the three nobles in Gangdian City. Our direct children are not the whole family's strength.... Since you have studied in the 'public college', even if you are not from a noble family, you must have heard of it?"
"really......."
Surman nodded deeply. Whether it was his experience in his previous life or the ancient aristocrats who were originally from the Rage Shark Port, the life memories brought by these identities deeply told him that an ancient aristocrat in a civilized city-state must have their trump card.
"So, we can just wait with peace of mind..."
Scarthy didn't care at all. There were only a dozen people from two major families left in the warehouse. After all, more than half of them were extraordinary people. Even if any accidents hit, it would be enough to block them for a moment.
The rest...
The family behind them will help deal with it.
"In the blink of an eye, most of the night has passed."
"There are less than a few hours left before the auction opens."
Scarcey glanced at the pocket watch again, closed it gently with a smile-
"Let's talk about the interesting experiences you have on your way to the steam train..."
............
Hope Hall, on time at 8 am.
The luxuriously decorated and heavy door slowly opened, and the bright red carpet spread out like a long snake.
A gentleman dressed in formal clothes, wearing a morning dress, a high silk top hat, and a gentleman's cane inlaid with gold and silver, in line with the most mainstream aesthetics. He entered the auditorium from the luxurious gate, not only them. There were also the same formal dressed lady and the ladies of the upper class, who also entered the venue under the guidance of the waiter. In the auditorium like a arena, he sat in front and back according to the social status.
When the light dimmed, a bright red curtain slowly hangs from the upper chamber around.
This is a grand celebration held throughout the city, which is about to begin.
At this time, in the audience seat in the lobby below, there was an inconspicuous position.
A brown-haired man with a deer hunting hat and ordinary formal attire, his dress is not so expensive, and his seat is close to the remote, and he is close to middle-aged. He leans gently on the back of the chair and whispers to himself—
"Have you confirmed that the whereabouts of the 'Ghost Thieves' have been successful?"
Next to him, a thin young man with his head down and his face hidden in the shadow, husky:
"It was confirmed that he had succeeded. He had used his actions to transfer the investigation team of the Snow Sacrifice Church and some of the ancient nobles."
The two of them were not low, but strangely, the space near them seemed to be blocked, and the sound was transmitted less than three meters away. Even in the seat close to them, looking at the lady in the venue, they ignored the conversation between them.
No, to be precise, the beautiful lady even ignored the existence of the two.
"Very good, how is the situation with the tourer?" the middle-aged man whispered.
"They? Hehe, they are busy chasing the descendants of the Stuart family in the city. I don't know where they got the news from, you know, according to their relationship with Mercury Libra...... they are the most passionate about this kind of thing." The thin young man sneered.
"Is there anyone in the way?" the middle-aged man asked.
The thin young man stretched his body and lay comfortably on the soft backrest, laughing lowly—
"Don't worry, their attention is all in the underground warehouse, including those of the ancient nobles..."
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man also held his hat, as if he was preparing to welcome the grand ceremony.
"Yes, they absolutely couldn't imagine..."
"Our real goal is to assassinate everyone, the most powerful and least-in-responsible noble head."
In their sight, on the stage at the forefront, the bright red curtain slowly opened, like the prelude to begin.
ps: The second update today is five minutes earlier than last time (sighed up with a stingy head).
