289 Eggfaces Mission (2/2)
No. 1: Bru was unable to have the gamers enter the Plot Animation mode.
No. 2: Bru was unable to get Mufasa and Simba to create equipment.
No. 3: Without Sherlock's help, the gamers wouldn't take Bru's mission notices seriously.
Without the Plot missions, how could they prepare for war? Or perform training? The gamers would hurry to Winterfell to discover other Strange Encounter Missions from NPCs. They would accept missions from the Adventurer's Guild and challenge the Instance Dungeon. They would never prepare for war!
There were many things that impeded Bru's great plan, such as the fact that he was unable to create a stable Revival Point.
Bru was unable to communicate with other creatures aside from Sherlock. He could only use the game system to communicate with the gamers.
Besides Sherlock, only Brainiac could install the Revival Rune Mana Formation. However, Bru wasn't able to order Brainiac to do things.
Brainiac would only listen to Lord Sherlock. Though the gamers helped to relay orders, it was a direct order from Sherlock.
Sherlock had vanished in front of Brainiac. To order Brainiac to do things was impossible.
After some considerations, Bru discovered that Sherlock was the soul of Eternal Kingdom. Without him, it was impossible to carry out any battle plan.
The only thing he could do was find Lord Sherlock!
Bru couldn't depend on Brainiac, as he was still looking dazed at the location where Sherlock vanished.
Who could he depend on? Mana Engineer? Senior Beast? Evelynn? Skills Trainer Moroes? The Little Fairy? Senior Beast? Or the Mana Engineer Yoda, who had the title of the Jedi Warrior?
Or the retired Great White Goose, Blackhand, who had left Eternal Kingdom?
No, no, no. He couldn't depend on any of them because he wasn't able to communicate with them. The only hope was Eggface!
So Bru tempted Eggface with many rewards and informed him of Lord Sherlock's disappearance. Then he gave the mission to Eggface.
To let Eggface find the lost Lord Sherlock?
No, no, no. It would be strange if he could find Lord Sherlock. He was only a two-year-old Black Dragon. So the mission to Eggface was—to find help. At this critical juncture, only the Fallen Angel Lilo could help Lord Sherlock.
…
Bloody chrysanthemum tea, Dragon's Nest Bed, shiny metals, and Black Dragon toenail clippers…
Eggface placed each item into his backpack and then pulled the zipper and carried it on his back. Behind Eggface was a weak and fearful Evelynn and a large group of gamers.
The gamers chattered excitedly.
”Gosh, I'm so lucky to have a Strange Encounter Mission while mining ore in the Dungeon!”
”I received it just after I revived in Eternal Kingdom.”
”Shh, stop talking. Be immersive, you little Satans.”
”Uh, ah, ah, ah, ah! We have to save Lord Sherlock! Is that it?”
”That's cracking me up. Are you performing a sketch?”
Compared to the merry-making gamers, Evelynn was looking tense. She got to know that Sherlock had disappeared. To find Sherlock, she was willing to risk returning to Winterfell without any disguise.
Besides the gamers, only Evelynn was able to recognize the Fallen Angel, Lilo. Moreover, Evelynn was very familiar with Winterfell.
”Are you ready?”
Eggface carried his backpack and shouted to the gamers behind him, ”My dark servants, follow me closely. In the darkness, follow behind the Flaming Devil Dragon. I'll bring you to a whole new world! Let's go!”
