Chapter 822: Chapter 776: Tachiusu Recruiting Troops and Horses (Part 2)
"Wow!!" The entire tavern’s patrons let out a collective gasp.
Just then, Blood Slaughter’s Silencer Set began to hum, and his treasure-hunting device pinged. Imdiately, his treasure radar displayed the location of the set piece "Spear of the Dead" on Vice Hero Alicia by Da Fei’s side!
My set! In that instant, excitent surged through Blood Slaughter, causing him to stand up involuntarily!
Players without complete sets might never understand the tornt and hesitation of missing a single component. For several days now, Blood Slaughter had been wracked with indecision. Countless tis, he had wanted to ssage Da Fei to repurchase his set piece, but rembering Da Fei’s victorious taunts, he couldn’t swallow his pride.
Now that the set piece is back in front of him, what’s he supposed to do? Kill her? That’s useless! It’s a player’s vice hero, not a quest boss monster. Even if he kills her, there’s no guarantee the desired equipnt will drop.
Trade with her? No way. It’s a player’s vice hero; she wouldn’t even entertain other players. Moreover, a vice hero is akin to a player’s pet equipnt. How can she arbitrarily exchange player gear for her equipnt?
In that instant, Blood Slaughter’s mind raced, yet he was utterly at a loss!
At this mont, Alicia brought the Flower Demon Hero to the tavern’s bulletin board under the gaze of all the players present. The tavern maid approached and asked, "What information would the custor like to post?"
Alicia chuckled and replied, "My friend Tachiusu is visiting the tavern for the first ti, and she aims to recruit seven strong heroes of level 50 or above. Having production skills is a bonus. Wage conditions are negotiable, at least Kingdom-level standards, lifeti employnt or short-term hiring are both acceptable. Please make contact on her behalf!"
The maid smiled and said, "Alright, I’ll publish the information imdiately! Heroes present, would any of you be interested in negotiating with Lady Tachiusu?"
Instantly, the tavern heroes playing cards and drinking burst into laughter, "Call the young lady over for a few drinks, and we’ll discuss slowly!"
Suddenly, Alicia’s face darkened, forcing the maid to explain helplessly, "I’m sorry, but the heroes residing here have their own conditions beyond simple wage and treatnt..."
At that very mont, the tavern patrons keenly realized this as a unique event and began discussing fervently.
As an expert in quest dynamics, Blood Slaughter knew it well. Even though he didn’t understand the role of Da Fei’s hero here, he could confirm two points:
First, this Flower Demon Hero nad Tachiusu won’t beco Da Fei’s vice hero because a player’s vice hero cannot recruit another vice hero. Second, Tachiusu’s ability to recruit seven vice heroes indicates she’s level 60 or above; NPC heroes typically don’t beco vice heroes to players with lower levels.
An NPC hero who can recruit vice heroes is either a commander of a kingdom or a chief of a tribe. Kingdom commanders have their subordinate heroes, naturally wouldn’t recruit wild heroes in a tavern. Judging by the tavern heroes’ laughter, this Flower Demon is undoubtedly an unknown tribal chief.
Blood Slaughter was well aware of the high standards of the tavern heroes. Even if players t their quest requirents, they might still disdain the player’s level and reputation, refusing to join. In short, these tavern heroes are a gaggle of tricks that waste players’ ti and expressions!
However, these others don’t matter. Blood Slaughter only cared about his Spear of the Dead. If Da Fei’s hero could trigger such a special scene, then likely the usual rules might not apply!
Blood Slaughter promptly approached Alicia and asked, "Pardon , Miss, if I help you recruit heroes, can you reward
with your Spear of the Dead?"
Direct to the point, if it’s not possible, then it’s better to drop it altogether.
Alicia exclaid in surprise, "You know that I have the Spear of the Dead? What thod do you have to help us recruit heroes?"
Is there room for negotiation? Blood Slaughter couldn’t help but get excited, "Of course, I know; I’m a bounty hunter. As for the recruitnt thod, I can only provide the items these heroes need. Though I can’t guarantee long-term hiring, short-term, limited hire is no problem."
Tachiusu also spoke, "Warrior, if you can help my Lumang Tribe recruit heroes, you will receive the reputation of my Lumang Tribe as a reward."
Blood Slaughter chuckled, "Reputation ans nothing to ; I’m interested in the Spear of the Dead—"
"Reputation ans sothing!" In that very mont, the players in the tavern suddenly sward forward, "Lady Tachiusu, we’re very interested in your Lumang Tribe; we can also help you!"
Blood Slaughter said anxiously, "Hey, hey, are you here to ss things up?"
The crowd laughed, "You don’t want reputation, but we do. How’s that ssing up?"
Blood Slaughter’s face darkened, "Don’t make a scene, or don’t bla
for turning hostile!"
Upon hearing this, the crowd reluctantly retreated to their seats, laughing, "Fine, we’ll give you so face; finish your talk first!"
"Exactly, it’s a trivial matter, just ask Da Fei to buy it, why go through all this?"
Blood Slaughter’s face turned even gloomier; they obviously didn’t know about his grudge with Da Fei. But he was thankful they didn’t know, or his tyrannical reputation in the tavern would be greatly damaged. Yet, in this regard, Da Fei hadn’t really embarrassed him openly.
At this point, Alicia took out the Spear of the Dead, spun it playfully between her fingers, and laughed, "Warrior, if you can help Lady Tachiusu recruit seven level-50 heroes within a day, then we can discuss anything!"
Staring at the spinning spike in her hand, Blood Slaughter’s eyes shrank into a small ball, "Within a day?"
Tachiusu gave a slight bow, "Please, warrior, help our Lumang Tribe recruit heroes."
—System Prompt: You have obtained the task "Hero Recruitnt for Lumang Tribe"!
—Task Hint: Help Tachiusu recruit seven tavern heroes within a day. The faster and more you recruit, the higher your reward.
This really could trigger a task? Blood Slaughter had encountered all sorts of quirky quests, but this quest to help an NPC hero recruit tavern heroes was sothing new? But within a day, which is just 2.4 hours—it’s evidently impossible!
At this mont, Blood Slaughter made his task public to other players in the tavern, "Brothers, earlier I was too excited seeing the set and lost my head. I apologize. Could you guys lend a hand?"
The crowd scoffed disdainfully, "Who was the one threatening to get hostile earlier?"
"Now rembering brothers, making brothers seem cheap!"
Blood Slaughter sighed, "How about I help each brother with a task once?"
The crowd snorted dismissively, "Don’t even think about it!"
Blood Slaughter suddenly yelled angrily, "Will you help or not? If you don’t help, I’m turning hostile now!"
The crowd quickly laughed awkwardly, "Just teasing you earlier, certainly we’ll help; one task for each of us!"
...
anwhile, at the Star Command Center, the Star President was also awake through the night.
As the global Human Race player factions focused their attention on the high-end troop Divine Punishnt City, where should the Elf Camp head next? After all, elves don’t have any scenes to recruit special Jade Dragons. Similarly, how will those in the Dark Alliance face the impact of Divine Punishnt City?
Eternal Star really wanted to call Ma Yinglong to ask his opinion, but so late at night, he wasn’t sure if Ma Yinglong was asleep. Plus, calling him at midnight could be laughed off as being scared into sleeplessness. Better to wait until after the finals to call.
Just then, a team mber ca to report, "President, there’s an unusual situation at the Dawn Goddess Tavern. Da Fei’s vice hero issued a strange task. Here’s the footage sent in by the outside team present."
Eternal Star said calmly, "Broadcast on the big screen."
