“Since it was a gift that Dame Miriam received from a friend, it is definitely not something that just anyone can be allowed to view..”
Lan Hua shook her head and poured a ladle of cold water on the excited little Ashina and said：
“This means that if you want to complete this task, you must first raise Dame Miriam's personal reputation to above Friendly. Although the favorability system has not been officially confirmed, players are convinced that this mechanism exists in the game..
Moreover, your personal experience seems to have solved a long-standing mystery on the forum..
That is, the favorability of other NPCs can be increased by special means, but Lord Murphy's favorability system has always been confusing..
Now it seems that the mainline NPC is really different! If you want to win his favor, you have to show your uniqueness and bravery in front of him, and this damn favorability system actually has a quota..
There are only twelve warrior quotas. Gee, he is such a picky and handsome man.！”
The Grand Traveler narrowed her eyes, apparently having some other thoughts in her mind. After a few seconds, she whispered to Ashina in a low voice.：
“This information needs to be kept secret, you know? Mr. Murphy is obviously a sensitive person who doesn't like to be discussed. If you casually reveal his criteria for selecting warriors, your favorability with him will definitely be reduced..”
“ah? Is there any other way to say this?？”
Xiao Weiming's eyes widened and she said：
“Then what will I say on the forum?？”
“Not good either！”
Orchid shook her head and whispered：
“You know those guys from Brother Miao Miao, right? Their luck in the game has reached an incredible level. As long as there are tasks and rewards related to luck, something will definitely happen to them..
I originally thought it was something they did..
But when I was bored a few days ago, I was looking through old posts on the forum, and I suddenly discovered that the gossip about Mr. Murphy and Mrs. Tracey was originally spread by them..
Emmm, to be honest, judging from the intelligence of the NPCs in this game, I don’t think this is a coincidence..
Don’t forget, Murphy, as the mainline NPC, has some GM authority. Old players said that they had witnessed Mr. Murphy kicking Brother Meow Meow offline..
So I have to say it.
I feel that Mr. Murphy, this unique NPC, may be 'played in real time' by the development team at some point in time to fine-tune the plot direction in a way that does not affect the player's gaming experience. The unlucky place for Mew Miao and the others is Because he said bad things behind his back, he was 'concerned' by the development team..
But I have no evidence.”
“Oops, okay.”
Xiaoweiming nodded, she said sadly：
“But I haven’t gained Baroness Miriam’s favor since I entered the game. How long will it take to gain favor from the beginning? Hey! etc! I suddenly had an idea.”
She raised her head and said to Orchid：
“What if a player who already has a good relationship visits the Baroness, and then I go there as a follower or friend? He made the request to view the gift”
“Theoretically possible！”
Orchid nodded and said：
“But you may not be able to find players who are willing to accompany you on adventures. Taking the initiative to make requests to NPCs will definitely lower your favorability, let alone the favorability of important NPCs like Archon Miriam..”
“What if it’s another NPC?？”
Xiao Weiming waved her hands and said：
“If an NPC took me in, this wouldn't be a problem, right?？”
“Um？”
Lanhua looked at Xiaoweiming in surprise, holding the pearl of wisdom in her hand, and said doubtfully：
“So, your plan is？”
“Of course I am looking for the handsome and gentle Mr. Murphy.！”
The little dwarf laughed and said：
“He basically doesn't do anything other than patrolling the territory every day, so he has a lot of time to waste. As his reserve warrior, this small request shouldn't make him remove me, right? You also said that his favorability algorithm is different from other NPCs..
I've qualified and deserve preferential treatment, right?？”
“Well, it does work！”
Lanhua nodded, glanced at the proud little Wei Ming, and said：
“You are such a clever little guy.”

The news that Xiao Ashina passed the Black Iron Trial was like a thunderbolt last night. After several hours of fermentation, it has spread wildly on the forum, almost all the young players have exploded..
People kept asking on the forum how it was done, so Lumina took the trouble to open a special post and explained the process..
At this time, Happy Stick, who was arranging troops for a "team battle" with a group of ghouls in the sewers of Scarlet Castle, yawned. He opened the forum in the game and looked at the text descriptions in the post..
Apparently he was thinking about what to do with his own trial..
“100%Do we need to bring realistic thinking into real games?？”
Brother Bang narrowed his eyes, and he felt like he had touched a little secret..
As a result, because they were thinking too deeply, the three newbies who forgot the command and rushed too quickly retreated in time. A gap appeared in the line. Three ghouls rushed in and grabbed them randomly, almost causing serious attrition to the team..
“Hold! What are you afraid of? Go up with a spear! Push them out! Musketeers prepare to fire！”
Brother Bang jumped up and shouted, causing the chaotic front line to quickly recover..
But his mind was actually no longer on the battlefield at hand. Happy Stick thought about it and pulled out a sewer map he drew from his side. He rubbed his chin and thought for several minutes before saying to the guys beside him.：
“I'll finish it for another 30 minutes and it'll be over today. Let me follow you to a place to make traps.！”
“ah? Brother Bang, why are you making a trap?？”
Tiger and Leopard Cavalry Dou asked curiously, Happy Stick narrowed his eyes and said：
“Lure an elite ghoul over, and I will pass the Black Iron Trial tonight! We are also planning to develop a set of playing methods that can be used by everyone. As a man, we can’t let other little girls look down on us, right?？”
At the same time, at the edge of the sewers in the outer city, the warrior warriors who were training with Cat Hero were also discussing what happened last night..
Xiaowei Ming is so hot-blooded that he has been able to tease all the macho men in the whole server. He wishes he could catch a ghoul and practice his skills right now..
“A girl actually did this to challenge the Black Iron Elite alone. Oh, it's so embarrassing.！”
Lin Bei Gouzhao slapped his face and laughed at himself in a long voice, leaving the other three brothers speechless. However, Brother Mao, who was sitting next to him and resting, grinned, picked up the water bag and took a sip, then stood up with the big sword and said：
“Why are you always comparing yourself to others? You have to compare yourself! The blocking and dodges in this game are so realistic. Once you improve your skills, let alone fight against elites, you won’t have any problem without getting hurt..”
“ah? Brother Cat, I believe you can beat the elite, but you won't be injured. Tsk, this is too exaggerated..”
“how? Don’t believe it? Hey, give me a few more days to explore the ropes of this game, and then I can open your eyes, but it’s really not possible to use the blood vulture swordsmanship. This thing has more than enough attack power, but lacks dexterity. This is the flaw of the swordsmanship itself..
You have to find a way to learn a set of skills that are both offensive and defensive. First, tell me how to increase your favorability in this game.？
When I was sparring with Mr. Maxim before, I saw him use a set of swordsmanship that allowed him to dodge without taking any damage. I plan to learn it, and then I should be able to challenge elites one on one..”
“A sneeze！”
At this time, Maxim, who was escorting the convoy to leave Bataxin City, suddenly sneezed without warning, causing a heir next to him to look at him strangely..
explain：
“Sir, what's wrong? injured？”
“No.”
Maxim, fully armed, was riding on a war horse, waving his hands and saying：
“I just have a weird feeling, as if I'm being targeted by something tough..”
