Chapter 1021 - 960: So It Was Subcontracting the Project
When Little Fang directly put forward the request to challenge Beelzebub, Bloodrose Studio, watching the live broadcast behind the scenes, fell into tense silence.
At this moment, Nanny was also stunned for a long time and then burst into laughter: "Ridiculous! Absolutely ridiculous! Are you trying to tell me you can dive in a cesspool for over ten minutes and feel great about it?"
Dive in a cesspool!? At this moment, not only did Little Fang and Little Li at the scene look unwell, but all the beauties behind the scenes turned pale green!
Then Nanny’s face darkened: "I don’t want to hear any nonsense. If you have new requests, I can arrange for you to collect corpses!" After finishing, she ignored the two in front of her and went about sweeping the floor.
Little Fang and Little Li stood silent, and the entire Bloodrose Studio fell into dead silence.
Bloodrose Holy Spear coughed and said: "Well, it seems, not possible now."
President Zhou Qing sighed: "This was an unreliable clue anyway."
Bloodrose Holy Spear laughed: "Then, shall we accept Nanny’s higher-level task arrangement?"
Zhou Qing coughed lightly: "Anyway, it’s just a game. Let’s accept it. The members left in the Monastery should keep striving."
At this moment, the entire studio wailed: "President, we apply to develop the Great Wilderness!"
Zhou Qing retorted: "Don’t make trouble, do what you’re supposed to do."
Bloodrose Holy Spear laughed: "That’s right, there are so many professional teams in the Great Wilderness that it’s not like we’re short of a few. The key is that Nanny’s task can only be taken by female players; we mustn’t miss it. Besides, after all the cesspool training, our members are performing well in the Great Wilderness."
Zhou Qing continued: "Alright then, let Blood Arrow Fragrance and Blood Arrow Linglong continue to go to Divine Punishment City for tasks."
"Got it."
At this moment, the wailing in the Bloodrose Guild channel naturally fell into Junxiang’s sight. Da Fei couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh, wondering why these beauties were so persistent. Even he couldn’t stand this misleading development!
But speaking of which, even if I don’t have Beelzebub, it doesn’t mean there’s no Beelzebub in the game. Anyway, idle hands are idle hands, so I might as well ask Selvia, as I’ve been too busy to pay attention to her.
Thus, Da Fei switched to the main account and arrived at the captain’s cabin of the Jade Dragon ship. Selvia was focused on reading, and Kate was struggling with the dictionary.
Seeing Da Fei arrive, Kate greeted warmly: "Captain, exhausted from reading?"
Da Fei laughed heartily: "Yep, just checking your progress. I remembered something; does the ransom for your dad have to be all twenty-something Fire-spitting Cannons? Can’t we use the Ice Crystal Stone traded from the Siren?"
Kate frowned: "Not sure, because the cannons were my father’s last assets, so we can’t rule out that he might have no choice."
Da Fei responded: "Keep the cannons if possible, as long as you have the technological prowess, ransom isn’t the issue."
Kate nodded: "Understood, we’ll try to negotiate with that organization."
Da Fei then asked Selvia: "Selvia, I heard you issued a Toilet cleaning task to gain favor with the Monastery’s gatekeeper Nanny in Divine Punishment City?"
Selvia responded: "Nanny appreciates those willing to do dirty work and also those who know how to be adaptable, is there anything wrong?"
Da Fei was surprised: "What do you mean by ’know how to be adaptable’?"
Selvia laughed: "Of course it’s that I don’t want to do dirty work, so I hand it to those willing to do it. Initially, this was Nanny’s assessment for pushing me as the next Saintess successor, but midway some things the captain knows came up, so it was interrupted."
Da Fei’s eyebrows jumped in surprise: "You’re saying as long as the toilet is cleaned, Nanny can recommend you as the next Saintess?"
Selvia shook her head and laughed: "Although there are many factors to becoming a Saintess, cleaning the toilet can add virtue points. Alternatively, organizing others to do what I can’t do well highlights my organizational ability and adds to my leadership points."
Da Fei’s eyebrows jumped again: "So the purpose of issuing this task was?"
Selvia laughed: "Of course, to get more people to help add points for me! Plus, those who help me will gain deserved recognition; if their overall evaluation surpasses mine, they will be the next Saintess."
Da Fei was so shocked his jaw dropped! Seriously, this is the legendary outsourcing! I’ve never heard of someone digging coal becoming a coal boss; the better the Bloodrose beauties clean the toilet, the more points Selvia gets, further solidifying her position as Saintess!
This is the tricky task issued by a vice-hero player? How mind-blowing is this task!
In his shock, Da Fei snapped back and asked: "Didn’t you say escaping the Monastery equates to self-disqualification? Are you still eligible for the Saintess election?"
Selvia replied sternly: "Not only did the Duke Makar’s weirdness get noticed by you, captain, but it’s a matter affecting too many and too seriously, so you better understand the consequences than me."
Da Fei suddenly realized this was an extension of my confrontation with Duke Makar’s Epic Quest! No wonder Selvia could advance from Nanny to Holy Spear Sister and gain the harp’s divine power’s blessing! Turns out Nanny was an ally secretly all along; I wasn’t fighting alone!
At this moment, Da Fei was moved to tears! Nanny’s unappealing appearance became kind and friendly in Da Fei’s eyes. Nanny, don’t worry, you’ll forever live in my heart! Uh, she’s not dead yet!
With excitement, Da Fei asked further: "So does Nanny know how to summon Beelzebub?"
Selvia chuckled: "Captain, the ’Solomon’s Key’ Miss Hilda mentioned is indeed a Forbidden Spell Book, but it’s widely transcribed and circulated, not considered high-level summoning. Anyone with sufficient strength and bravery can try it, even the Dwarf Prince you’re paying attention to can get it, not to mention strong people like Nanny."
Da Fei’s eyebrows jumped: "Are you saying the church has forbidden spells as well?"
Selvia shook her head: "Unclear, but large organizations surely have them, like the Seven Cities Alliance. In fact, illicit versions circulate in the black market as well. But if we truly need to confront Makar, a demi-god level Death Lord, with mortal capabilities, it might be difficult; perhaps we’ll have to use forbidden spells to summon Demon Gods for confrontation, requiring very high personal strength, which is why I’m working hard to improve with the captain."
Da Fei was utterly shocked. Wow, is this really the pure Little Nun I once knew? Forbidden spells? This is a distant topic for me, yet she already thought so far ahead!
As he was musing, Junxiang’s alt account cheered. Da Fei hurriedly switched helmets to glimpse a massive convoy led by Skyshattering Thunder.
Then the guild channel was abuzz: "Have you seen the faceless black-armored dwarf? That’s the legendary Demon God, who can catch Birdmen and brainwash them into our army!"
Da Fei was taken aback, brainwashing! It truly is Guxin!
Moreover, Da Fei was even more startled by the fact Skyshattering Thunder really managed to summon the Demon God! Of course, it likely couldn’t have happened without large guild strategies, yet this clearly showed if given a clue, they can achieve it right away. These are truly masters deserving of respect; never underestimate them!
Under the Demon God’s indication, the convoy unloaded its supplies, and on-site troops started constructing Demon God’s structures, while the Demon God began setting up an array on the ground.
Da Fei was displeased watching. With Demon God involved, dealing with Birdmen shouldn’t be a problem, and once a good start is made in this high-end scene, it will surely snowball. If this continues, my high-mountain-standing supreme status will be threatened; I must be careful! Thus, no more well-meaning help in future. A sense of urgency surged within Da Fei.
Watching the Demon God using magic on the construction site, Da Fei felt his heart leap again, isn’t it consuming the Demon God’s power? If it drains a lot, won’t I still have a chance to kill Guxin in the future?
Yes, that’s an opportunity! Thinking so, Da Fei immediately felt at ease. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, feel free to visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation tickets, monthly tickets; your support means the world to me. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com for reading.)
