Chapter 82: Chapter 81: The Instance Lord’s Dormitory
A photo collection is just a photo collection, after all…
Jiang Qiao floated above the battlefield, looking at the various posts popping up on the forum.
In the Holy Spirit section, soone had uploaded the trigger conditions for a hidden quest related to the axe-wielding man, which was simply to swear allegiance to Queen i, and one could trigger this hidden quest for the sake of Queen i.
This post initially didn’t get much attention and sank to the bottom of the forum in less than three minutes. Feeling sorry for the person who posted it, Jiang Qiao gave it a bump and added a screenshot related to the hidden quest “For the Sake of Queen i.”
Once the screenshot was uploaded, it imdiately shut up those forum players who said “pics or it didn’t happen”, and the number of replies to the post began to steadily increase. Gradually, new posts related to this hidden quest started appearing on the forum as well.
Players’ ability to gather information was far superior to that of the NPCs on the battlefield.
...
As one of the most popular strears on Raccoon Live, Shen ng was the first to trigger a hidden quest, which quickly spread across the entire net.
And so, in less than an hour, Jiang Qiao looked down at the battlefield overseen by the axe-wielding man, which was… calm and peaceful.
Players lined up in long queues to swear allegiance to Queen i to the axe-wielding man. After receiving the hidden quest, so chose to stay and continue to challenge the axe-wielding man, while others ran towards the royal castle to start causing trouble for the Red Knights.
The chaotic situation on the battlefield continued, with the Holy Spirit side holding a slight advantage, and soldiers from the Dark Fla Country and the Flowing Water Country guarding the ti-space rift.
Although they were still suffering ‘heavy casualties’ against the undead soldiers, the undead army still couldn’t break through the ti-space rift under the sniper fire from the Holy Spirit side.
At this ti, Jiang Qiao received a piece of, not so good, news from Hai Lan.
There were signs that the Wasp Knight was waking up.
“You keep an eye on the battlefield, I’ll go give the Wasp Knight so psychological counseling.”
Jiang Qiao pulled Hai Lan up to the battlefield to monitor the War God Class battle so that if the bosses in the battle did anything out of line like the axe-wielding man enlisting players, Hai Lan could imdiately inform Jiang Qiao.
As for Jiang Qiao, he withdrew his consciousness from the probe and when he opened his eyes again, he found himself at the top of the Astral Tower in Lionheart City.
Jiang Qiao took out the book of the system to summon a portal, which led to the only hidden map in the Holy Spirit World… “Instance Lords’ Dormitory”.
On the other side of the portal was a garden, at the end of which stood a high-rise with the Holy Spirit style architecture, looking sowhat like a university dormitory, albeit an antique version.
This collective dormitory could be upgraded into a luxury villa in the future, as long as the bosses worked hard. Jiang Qiao could even satisfy them if they wanted to build a sea in their living area, let alone a luxury villa.
The condition is… to work hard and earn enough money to buy a seaside villa.
The room where the Wasp Knight was located was Room 001. She was the first boss to move into the instance leader’s dormitory.
However, Jiang Qiao believed that once she woke up, she would definitely try every possible ans to escape this damn place. Now, what Jiang Qiao needed to do was provide so psychological counseling for the Wasp Knight and help her adapt to a modern living environnt.
“This place is way nicer than where I live.”
Jiang Qiao entered the room and looked around. The room was well-lit, equipped with modern furniture, and the size of the three-bedroom, one-living-room flat was about 120 square ters.
Such decoration and size would cost upwards of two million even in the third ring of Jiang City.
And the Wasp Knight was lucky enough to wake up from a bed worth two million.
Jiang Qiao pushed open the door and walked into the bedroom where the Wasp Knight was resting. The knight was no longer visible, but the next instant, Jiang Qiao felt the cold edge of a dagger against his neck.
“Who are you? What is this place?” The Wasp Knight’s figure appeared behind Jiang Qiao. Her weapons were all confiscated by Hai Lan, but this didn’t prevent this top assassin from taking down so… unguarded individuals.
“I guess I’m the landlord here, and this is where you’ll be living from now on,” said Jiang Qiao with a smile.
The Hornet Knight was not satisfied with Jiang Qiao’s answer. She waved the small knife in her hand, aiming to stab Jiang Qiao, but she found that no matter how much she tried, the blade would not penetrate Jiang Qiao’s neck.
“I know your level is very high, but the equipnt you hold won’t benefit from your level and attribute bonuses,” Jiang Qiao said.
The dagger that the Hornet Knight held to Jiang Qiao’s neck was a kitchen knife, a whiteboard weapon that could be equipped from level one, with an attack power of 5–10.
To know, the weapon the Hornet Knight previously wielded was the legendary Piercing Chain Blade, which could ignore fifty percent of a player’s armor and also had lethal and poisonous bleeding effects.
No matter how much the Hornet Knight stabbed, the numbers that popped above Jiang Qiao’s head were always 0. She wanted to kill Jiang Qiao with this kitchen knife, but punching him to death would be more practical.
However, the Hornet Knight simply didn’t have the strength for such a thing… Her stomach let out a ‘gurgle’ sound at this mont.
At this instant, the Hornet Knight entered a state of stupor, feeling a familiar sensation for the first ti in hundreds of years—hunger.
This was the mont for Jiang Qiao to use the Qiao family’s secretly passed down technique.
“Why don’t you sit down and eat sothing first? Your body just recovered from the zombie-like state, and you’re disconnected from Queen i’s energy supply. If you don’t eat sothing soon, you will die,” Jiang Qiao said.
The zombies in the Divine Fragnt War plane could maintain their actions solely on the power of the Divine Fragnt of Hai Lan that Queen i possessed; the Hornet Knight was no longer under Queen i’s protection.
“Get out of here, now!” The Hornet Knight, hearing Jiang Qiao bring up Queen i, flew into a rage.
After realizing she couldn’t hurt Jiang Qiao with the kitchen knife, she tried to strangle Jiang Qiao with her arm, attempting to suffocate him.
But suddenly, a cloud of smoke appeared, and when the Hornet Knight regained her senses, Jiang Qiao had vanished, leaving only a straw man in a provocative pose in her grip.
Substitute Grass Man.
A life-saving skill that most magic classes have, with effects similar to the Substitute Technique.
“If I were you, I’d take down the enemy after having a good al.”
Jiang Qiao’s figure had already appeared behind the living room coffee table, and at that mont, the Fire Spirit and Water Spirit were setting down a plate of sweet and sour pork ribs and a plate of salt-and-pepper chicken legs on the table, along with many other appetizing dishes.
These were all transported by Jiang Qiao from the real world. The Holy Spirit World could simulate anything, except that when players ate, there was no taste, though players with the culinary profession could still make flavorful food.
The Hornet Knight had vanished at the bedroom door; she jumped out through the open window and ran into the outside garden.
Perhaps the Hornet Knight thought she could leave this dreadful place by escaping the room, but the problem was… there were boundaries to this map.
‘Hornet Knight fell out of the map boundary.’
Jiang Qiao quickly received this notification, and the next second, the Hornet Knight was teleported back inside the bedroom.
“Aren’t you tired?”
Jiang Qiao held a bowl of rice, helping himself to a piece of salt-and-pepper chicken leg.
“Let out!” The Hornet Knight’s eyes behind the mask had beco terrifyingly fierce, and she approached the table, seemingly ready to flip it.
“Do you want to know about Knight of the Wolf’s situation? And the reason why he turned out this way?” Jiang Qiao said.
This sentence made the Hornet Knight’s hand on the edge of the table extrely stiff. Then her stomach let out another gurgle, and the aroma of the food on the table caused her mouth to secrete a liquid… a liquid she hadn’t experienced in hundreds of years.
“Sit down, let’s talk while eating,” Jiang Qiao said, pointing to the chair next to the Hornet Knight.
