Alas, the reason was indeed a bit too far-fetched...
Sighing secretly, Jack quickly backed away a certain distance, took out the forbidden curse scroll from his bag, and threatened: "Stop, or don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"!!"
Seeing what Jack was holding tightly in his hand, the Undead Mage's pupils shrank suddenly. His heart seemed to be squeezed hard, and a sense of crisis emerged. He couldn't help exclaiming: "Forbidden curse scroll?!"
"Don't die. Let me see your information panel." Jack got straight to the point.
"You..."
The Undead Mage gritted his teeth and exposed him mercilessly: "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Most of the forbidden curses sealed in the scroll cause fixed damage. You're afraid that my health points exceed the damage caused by the forbidden curse and dare not tear it apart."
"..."
Damn designer!
Hearing this, Jack couldn't help secretly praising the designer for setting the intelligence of the NPC too high. After a little thought in his mind, he changed the way: "Hand over all the treasures on you!"
"Do you want to take advantage of the situation and rob me?" The Undead Mage directly swore.
Jack said coldly: "Hand them over, or I'll tear the forbidden curse scroll. You'll surely die!"
Since the game NPC had a high enough intelligence, in his opinion, he should be able to force the other party to hand over various equipment and items by threatening.
Of course, if he could know that the other party's health points limit didn't exceed 5 million, he would immediately use the forbidden curse without hesitation. But the problem was that neither of them knew, which led to the stalemate.
"Ha ha ha..." The Undead Mage laughed angrily, "No one has ever dared to threaten me, Daniel, like this. Come on, tear it. Just tear it. It's just a one-time forbidden curse scroll. I'd like to see if I can withstand it!"
Playing this trick with me?
If you really want to break out, why waste words and just use skills to fight me to the death?
Jack sneered in his heart, raised the forbidden curse scroll high: "Then I'm really going to tear it?"
"You tear it."
Daniel pretended to be calm and said meaningfully: "As long as I withstand the damage of the scroll, not only will you lose the scroll, but you'll also be killed by me. You'll lose both your life and your fortune!"
"As long as you can't withstand the damage of the scroll, all your possessions will be mine. Die!" Jack exerted force in his hand, making a gesture of tearing the scroll.
"Wait!"
Daniel's expression changed drastically and he quickly raised his right hand to make a gesture of stopping.
"Hmm?"
Jack winked and taunted: "What are you afraid of? It's just a one-time scroll. Didn't you want to see if you could withstand it?"
"..."
What the hell. How did such a weak adventurer get a forbidden curse scroll?
Taking a deep breath, Daniel endured his anger and humiliation, gritted his teeth and said: "What do you want?"
"Give me enough equipment and items, and I'll leave naturally and won't disturb you anymore." Jack said calmly, "Just consider it as losing money to avoid disaster. How about it?"
"No."
Daniel shook his head and rejected: "I can't give equipment or items to adventurers for free."
"Why?"
"Because of the rules of this world."
"..."
The rules of the world?
He could actually mention the rules?
Jack was stunned. He was a little confused whether this guy in front of him was an official role-playing real person or an NPC with extremely high intelligence.
"Then what do you suggest?" Jack frowned.
"Well..."
Daniel thought for a moment, looked at Jack's current level and status, hesitated and said: "How about this? I'll make an exception and accept you as my disciple and teach you the swordsmanship of the dark camp. What do you think?"
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: [Undead Mage · Daniel] invites you to join the dark camp. Do you agree? (Note: Once you choose to agree, your reputation in the light camp will decrease by 100,000, and at the same time, the reputation system of the dark camp will be activated)
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: [Undead Mage · Daniel] wants to accept you as a disciple. Do you agree? (Note: If you agree, you can obtain a special hidden profession, but at the same time, it is regarded as a complete betrayal of the light camp)
