StarTie Simulation: Aren’t you NPCs?

"Painting...likeness...?" Silver Wolf fell into deep thought as he looked at the subtitles that suddenly appeared in front of him.

Because she didn't have any portraits in her memory! She had never seen a portrait! Isn't this a bit too forced?

However, after pondering for a moment, she decided to give it a try and clicked on the task list on the right side of the screen.

The one placed on top is still the weird-looking main quest, and below it is the stage quest 1 which offers rewards that are almost equal to those of cheating.

Below the stage tasks are "side tasks". In this column, there is a task "Hunting the criminal "Skull Crusher"" listed. The blank information column on the right also shows the task information corresponding to this task:

[Side quest: Hunting the criminal "Skull Crusher"]

[Posted by: Mars, bartender at Embers Tavern]

[Mission Description: Hunt down the Level III criminal "Skullbreaker" who escaped from the "Oasis". According to the data, this individual often wanders around the black market area of ​​"Scrap Mountain". The individual's appearance is as follows: (Portrait)]

[Task Reward: "Game Coins", some information about the person in charge of the "Trading Point"]

Silver Wolf looked at the various information and the headshot displayed on the right side of the screen and fell into deep thought, wondering if the voice he had just spoken was... a little too loud?

It’s obvious that the system gave all the prompts, but I didn’t read them!

Silver Wolf instantly fell into a sense of guilt, but this guilt came and went quickly, and her eyes were quickly caught by the curious appearance.

——That is the picture of "Smashed Skull"

If we ignore the weird situation on the left half of the face... then the first impression that this "skull-crushing" face gives to Silver Wolf should be that of a rugged man similar to "Iron Fist" Ariel who just caused trouble in the tavern.

But you can't ignore the left half of the face.

Ariel was okay, he just had a simple scar on his face, but the guy in front of him...it wasn't just the scar on his face, half of his face was an exposed mechanical skeleton, and the other half was normal human skin.

If the "K" just now replaced his entire face with a metal devil mask, then this guy replaced the left half of his face and even the internal skeleton with metal. Although I don't know what the purpose of these people changing their faces like this is, changing them into such an unreasonable appearance is indeed a violation of the law.

What's even more bizarre is... this guy didn't do a good job even after replacing his metal skeleton. The left half of his head even had a dent, which made Silver Wolf feel physically uncomfortable.

"Why is the model accuracy of a small monster...or an elite monster so high...what are your intentions..." Silver Wolf complained helplessly.

But even though he complained, Silver Wolf carefully recalled the attire of the people he had seen in "Punk Lord".

To be honest, in the "Scrap Mountain", most people choose to do the same as "Iron Fist" Ariel just now, and choose to replace a part of their body with a mechanical prosthesis to improve their combat effectiveness. However, there are some people who change themselves and make themselves uncomfortable...

As a hacker from "Punk Lord", she had naturally seen people like this, but... that was a long time ago, and she had long forgotten these few strange costumes during such a long interstellar journey.

The girl sighed again, then closed the taskbar on the screen and continued to watch the development of the plot.

[You actually know very well what this kind of person looks like... You don't need a very complicated description at all. You only need to describe the left half of the face to quickly find the corresponding target.]

[But this is a "waste mountain". If you don't ask specifically, you may not know where to go in many corners, so... you still have to ask.]

[But then again, this is the "Scrap Mountain" where the people are simple and honest. Everyone is trying to survive. Why would they provide you with information? So you decide:]

[1. Go back and talk to Wu Xuan to see if the remaining funds can support you all the way.]

【2. Find it yourself】

Silver Wolf looked at the options in front of him and chose option one without hesitation.

"Didn't the narration just now hint at it...If I were to look for it myself, how long would it take to find it?" Silver Wolf muttered to himself.

[You turned to look at Wu Xuan and said softly:]

"How many "game coins" do you have left?"

Wu Xuan blinked, looked at the silver wolf in front of him, and then said quite honestly: "8000"

[The current team's remaining "game currency" balance is ≥ 1000, meeting the conditions of option ]

[Next, we will search for the "broken skull" through dialogue]

[Note: Since "skull crushing" is not popular here, the information obtained this time is true information, but it is not guaranteed that every information inquiry other than this one is true information]

Silver Wolf raised his eyebrows and muttered quietly: "There is also an economic judgment system similar to Monopoly... It's quite interesting."

[After getting the exact remaining amount, you all walked towards the tents and gray containers surrounding the black market and asked the residents about the situation.]

[You walked to a rag tent, inside which sat a middle-aged woman who seemed to be preparing for dinner.]

[Wu Xuan stepped forward first and asked:]

"Hello? We are the "Bounty Hunters", and our target this time is... "Skullbreaker", a man whose left half of his face is a mechanical prosthesis and the right half is a normal face."

As Wu Xuan spoke, he took out a few "game coins" with a face value of 100 yuan from his pocket and rubbed them unconsciously in his hands.

As if she noticed Wu Xuan's movements, the woman who was originally a little wary suddenly smiled as brightly as a chrysanthemum. She smiled and said, "That big guy... I haven't seen him in person, but I heard that he lives in the "dark alley" in the west. Why don't you go ask Mr. Andrew?"

As she said this, she reached out her hand to take the "game coins" from Wu Xuan's hand, and Wu Xuan instantly put his hand behind his back, then threw out three "game coins" with a face value of one hundred and walked to the west.

At this moment, the woman's smile was as bright as a chrysanthemum, and she thanked Wu Xuan repeatedly.

But Wu Xuan and Yin Lang didn't care about the woman's performance, but walked straight to the west, to the place called "Dark Alley".

The residential area outside the black market is not very big, and it only takes a few steps to reach the entrance of the "dark alley".

Wu Xuan looked left and right, and finally saw a white-haired old man with one eye replaced with a red mechanical prosthetic eye not far from the entrance of the "dark alley".

Wu Xuan asked the old man softly:

"Excuse me...Are you Mr. Andrew?"
