62 The Purgatory Valley
When Loner heard this question, he was slightly taken aback as well, and a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.
Just as he was about to make up a lie to cover up the matter, he heard the ‘NPC’ in front of him speak again.
“The Elven Queen will bear witness to your words.”
Loner was stunned. He looked toward Su Ming, and for a moment, there was a look of surprise and bewilderment on his face.
‘No way? There’s a lie detector in this game? And the Elven Queen? Was this a high-level Elf?’
‘Were there male Elves as well?’ His fantasy was shattered!
When he saw Loner’s expression suddenly change to one of complete despair, Su Ming was also a little puzzled.
Just as he was about to speak again, Loner in front of him shook his head helplessly and said, “A few hours ago, I found a Tiger’s den. There were a few newly born Tiger cubs in it.
“My intuition told me that I could tame one of them as a pet, so I made my move.”
Su Ming understood now. The so-called intuition should be the hint for him to receive a pet in the game.
“But, just as I made my move, the Tigress suddenly ran back.
“I’ve been observing her for a long time. I only made my move after I was sure that she had just left the house.
“In the end, I was still caught off guard by her.”
At this point, Loner’s expression showed a hint of anger.
Su Ming looked at him helplessly. So this boy had learned that nothing ventured, nothing gained, and he had been discovered by the person who had attacked him.
But speaking of this, he was really a little too bold.
The man in front of him was only Level 7 or 8, while the Tigress was a Level 20 beast.
When he thought of this, Su Ming’s eyes suddenly lit up.
His adventurous and daring personality made him very suitable for a place in the game.
Just as Su Ming thought of this, the thoughts of the person before him turned even faster.
He rolled his eyes and chuckled, “Dear Sir, are you an Elf?”
Su Ming cast him a glance and nodded his head faintly. “You can say that.”
Hearing this, Loner’s eyes lit up. “Then is there anything you need me to do for you?”
“For example, to adopt a homeless Elf sister. Mmm, a sister Elf would be great.”
Su Ming cast him a glance and thought about what would happen if he really brought this guy back to the valley of the Elves.
It probably would not be long before this guy was hung on the cross by the angry Elves.
Su Ming thought to himself, but he pretended to be deep in thought. At the same time, he sized up Loner.
“I do have a mission, but I’m not sure if you can complete it.
“This mission is extremely difficult and arduous. It’s not something that ordinary people can do.”
Loner’s eyes lit up like the moon in the night sky. He patted his chest and said, “No problem! No matter how difficult it is, I can definitely do it!”
When Loner said those words, he was still looking in Su Ming’s direction with great excitement.
In his eyes, the mission Su Ming was talking about was his chance to soar into the sky!
Thinking of this, Loner became even more anxious.
“Dear Sir, when can I start doing that mission?”
Su Ming cast him a glance as if he was still hesitating on whether he should hand this task over to him.
In the end, Su Ming sighed, “I didn’t want to hand over such a difficult task to you.”
“But since you’re so insistent, I’ll let you try.”
Hearing this, Loner became excited.
Su Ming did not care about his reaction and continued, “Have you heard of the Purgatory Valley?”
Loner was stunned when he heard this.
Su Ming knew that he was not in a daze at that moment. Instead, he had opened the game map.
After a while, Loner returned to normal and nodded. “I understand, my Lord!”
As he said that, a faint trace of doubt appeared on his face. “But, my Lord, why did you suddenly bring this up? Don’t tell me you’re…?”
Su Ming nodded and said seriously, “If the elves want to have a better future, they will definitely need to form alliances with more forces of power.
“As for the Purgatory Valley, as the force closest to the Silverwind River Valley, it’s also a place that we elves want to explore.
“So, can you go to the Purgatory Valley to investigate the situation in my place?”
Hearing this, Loner hesitated.
After all, just the name of the Purgatory Valley gave people an extremely dangerous feeling.
When Su Ming saw this, the corners of his lips curled up and he brought out an exquisitely made armor from his bag.
“This is my gift to you.”
Loner was initially a little nonchalant when he heard this.
However, when he took the armor and saw the attributes on it, his eyes suddenly widened, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
“Are you that powerful?”
Su Ming was not too surprised by his reaction.
What he gave out was a green-grade, perfectly colored armor, and it was even made with the Dwarf race’s craftsmanship.
This level of equipment was considered a godly item in the early stages of the game.
Loner took it and looked at the heavy armor in his hands in shock, his eyes full of shock.
“My Lord, isn’t this gift a little too expensive?”
When Loner said these words, his face actually revealed a slight hint of nervousness.
Su Ming looked at him with a slightly amused expression, but his face remained very serious.
“No, the best armor should be given to the bravest and most fearless warrior.”
Loner was stunned for a moment, then excitement appeared on his face. He looked at Su Ming as if he was looking at his best friend.
“Moreover, the difficulty of this mission will be very difficult. Having some good equipment will also reduce the risk you face in the mission.”
Hearing this, Loner nodded his head solemnly and said, “My Lord, I will definitely not let you down!”
Then, he seemed to have thought of something. “By the way, what’s your name, Sir?”
Su Ming looked at him with a slightly resigned expression.
They had already met for such a long time, yet he only asked for his name now. Was his reaction time not a little too long?
Even though that was what he thought in his heart, Su Ming still answered with a serious expression on his face.
“You can just call me The Prophet.”
