Group Mission
“So… what do we do now? Continue the mission? Or…” Cai Minghou had been left sowhat at a loss by the ambush, and he looked anxiously at ng Jingtian.
The power of Godslayer Hall was enough to make the majority of players pale in fear.
“It’s fine. The next assassin shouldn’t appear so soon. Let’s continue with the mission!” ng Jingtian’s heart was also pumping a little faster. After all, the attack just now had been far too fast.
But he quickly managed to calm himself down and soothe Cai Minghou.
He couldn’t log off for a few days just to avoid assassination from Godslayer Hall. If he really did that, Godslayer Hall would probably be ecstatic. In the early stages of the ga, a few days was enough to create a huge gap.
“Brother Tian, how did you manage to piss off Godslayer Hall this ti?” Cai Minghou asked as he led the way to the final NPC with a clue. The question of Godslayer Hall was no longer one that could be avoided.
“It’s probably because of Tian Xuance. Right after I entered the ga, I ended up killing him twice,” ng Jingtian casually replied with a shrug.
“Tian Xuance?” Cai Minghou murmured in shock. With a bitter smile, he said, “Brother Tian, oh Brother Tian, it’s not like you don’t understand that it’s better to provoke a gentleman than a petty man.”
“Then you should also know that I’m not soone who offends others, but what can I do if he tries to provoke ?” ng Jingtian said, spreading apart his arms.
As they chatted, they gradually cald down and went to the final NPC.
This was a night watchman, and from this night watchman, they learned the identity of the bandit boss the First Young Master of the Golden Goose rcenary Company had colluded with.
The big boss of Cool Breeze Camp, ‘Howling Mountain Tiger’!
Cai Minghou turned ng Jingtian and told him, “The mission has been updated! Let’s go over to Cool Breeze Camp and take back King Pingwu’s jeweled belt!”
“Then what are we waiting for?” ng Jingtian was ready to leave the city with Cai Minghou.
But Cai Minghou’s expression turned strange as he bitterly smiled. “It’s a ten-man group mission, so it’s probably not that easy.”
“A group mission? What’s the reward?” ng Jingtian couldn’t help but ask.
“Ten thousand gold coins, a random piece of purple equipnt and one level,” Cai Minghou read out.
“The rewards aren’t bad! I’ll give you the lead, so gather a group!” ng Jingtian raised an eyebrow and passed the lead over to Cai Minghou.
The only two pieces of decent equipnt he had were Stupa and the Forgotten Ring. The rest of his equipnt was low-grade equipnt he had received from completing missions in Seaside City. For him, this mission’s rewards were pretty good.
With this mission, his ti investnt could be considered fruitful.
‘Bandit Suppression: Outside Black Tortoise City, on Qingming Mountain, is a den of mountain bandits that rob passersby and even take their lives. Now, they have colluded with the First Young Master of the Golden Goose rcenary Company to steal the item King Pingwu had entrusted to Golden Goose. The Second Young Master of the Golden Goose Company is gathering brave and righteous souls to pacify these bandits!
‘Mission Target: Escort the Second Young Master of the Golden Goose Company to Cool Breeze Camp, pacify the bandits, and take back King Pingwu’s treasure!
‘Mission Reward: Ten thousand gold coins, a random piece of purple equipnt, Level 1.’
Cai Minghou posted the mission info on Black Tortoise City’s city chat channel and began to gather a group.
In the early stages of the ga, a purple piece of equipnt was very rare and was enough to draw a large number of people.
It took only a little while for Cai Minghou to gather his party of ten.
“Gather at the gate of Black Tortoise City!” Cai Minghou shouted in the group channel.
A player called Zhou Han noticed Cai Minghou’s level and complained, “Only Level 12? Where’s the group leader? How did such a low level get into this group?”
“Sorry, this old man is the group leader!” Cai Minghou replied, the corner of his mouth twitching.
Only now did Zhou Han realize that Cai Minghou really did have the group leader symbol after his na, and he awkwardly fell silent.
But he clearly had a rather thick skin. A little while later, as if nothing had happened, he said in the group chat, “Group leader, relax! You can depend on for this mission!”
“Who the hell asked you along for the mission? Where’d this weirdo co from?” Cai Minghou muttered to himself as he kicked the guy out of the group.
“This temper of yours! There’s really no changing it!” Cai Minghou had kicked out a player over a very small slight, at which ng Jingtian could only bitterly smile.
“Of course. I can’t accept this sort of injustice. If that First Young Master of the Golden Goose Company hadn’t also been a player who had shut up in a little black room, would my level have been this low?” Cai Minghou replied without a hint of regret.
ng Jingtian knew of his temperant and said no more. He simply took out the Tsunami Trident the Boar King had dropped and gave it to him.
“Wait, Brother Tian, what’s this?” Cai Minghou raised his head in shock.
“You know that I have a divine weapon, and ‘Tomorrow’ doesn’t let you equip two weapons.” ng Jingtian patted Stupa on his back and smiled.
“…” After a few monts of silence, Cai Minghou accepted the trade. Rather than expressing his thanks with empty words, he silently noted this show of friendship in his heart.
Then he teased, “Brother Tian, you’re so generous! Gifting a purple weapon for a eting—if I were a girl, I’d definitely marry you!”
“Screw you! Who the hell would take the hand of a woman who looked like you?” ng Jingtian rolled his eyes, and the two of them continued to joke with each other as they made their way to the city gate.
Four or five mbers of the group had already arrived, and when they spotted the two of them, they called out.
“Oh my god! It’s ng Jingtian! I didn’t realize you were in this group!” a player called Cheng Xiaojin sighed in wonder.
“Here, here, here! Boss, give an autograph!” Cheng Xiaojin rushed over and barraged ng Jingtian with questions. “Might I ask if Boss ng played ‘Grand Desolation’ before? What was your ID? Aren’t you afraid of being ambushed by Godslayer Hall assassins after leaving the city?”
“It seems you missed out on your true calling as a reporter!” ng Jingtian’s mouth twitched as he glanced at Cheng Xiaojin.
“Godslayer Hall’s nothing! An assassin of Godslayer Hall already made his move in the city, but his skills were lacking, and my Brother Tian needed just one skill to send him back to spawn!” Although Cai Minghou had been badly frightened at the ti, he now bragged disdainfully about the encounter.
He was so proud that it almost seed like he had been the one to deal the killing blow.
Cheng Xiaojin’s face froze as he suspiciously asked, “Is that true?”
“It’s true. Godslayer Hall has already updated its progress on the forum,” said another player in the group called Mo Hongyi, her eyes flashing as if she had just co back to the ga after reading the forums.
“In addition, you might not have noticed, but ng Jingtian isn’t just the Godslayer Hall’s first target in ‘Tomorrow’, but also the first player that they have ranked!”
Mo Hongyi wore a red robe bound by a clean cord of violet silk. She had black eyebrows and bright eyes, appearing like a female warrior who had stepped straight out of a wuxia novel.
At this mont, she walked over, placed a hand on ng Jingtian’s shoulder, and then leaned over, her crimson lips parting as she asked, “Seven-foot-sword Immortal?”
“No!” ng Jingtian’s lips ford a faint smile as he shook his head.
“You can’t be the Wandering Drunken Scholar, right?” Mo Hongyi frowned as she continued to speculate.
“Stop guessing! It’s none of them!” ng Jingtian brushed off Mo Hongyi’s hand and smiled.
