Chapter 108 -105 Taking on the Enemy’s Mission is Quite Exhilarating
Deirdre, transformed into an apprentice, walked out of the tower and headed deeper underground.
Good, she’s out! This is escaping the jaws of death. This transformation infiltration no longer seems reliable. It’s crucial to abandon the mission and make a run for it. Without further thought, Da Fei immediately flew high along the ceiling, trying to contact her.
Crossing layers of underground workshops, construction sites, and lava pools, Deirdre reached a secluded part behind the Demon Camp where there were hardly any people. Da Fei finally could speak to her and descended from the sky.
Deirdre exclaimed with delight, “Master!”
Although wearing a mask, her voice remained clear and seductive, and her black robe still failed to cover her alluring figure. Damn, are you sure you’ve transformed?
Da Fei hurried to say, “The situation has changed, we can’t eliminate that hero named Siriel controlling the Magic Tower. Abandon the mission, let’s get out of here.”
Deirdre sighed, “I managed to sneak into the Magic Tower successfully, but the Hell Race suddenly sent a Mage instructor hero for onsite apprentice training. I was caught at once—but I don’t want to miss this opportunity!”
Da Fei was shocked, “Opportunity?”
Deirdre nodded, “That’s right. This Siriel is a famous Demon mentor. Normally, you can’t even meet him. If it weren’t for the war temporarily expanding many Magic Towers and recruiting a lot of apprentices, and due to the severe issues exposed from your attack, this Demon mentor wouldn’t have appeared. It’s said that he trained many renowned hero commanders. If I can perform well and gain his appreciation, I might receive inspiration to become a hero!”
Da Fei anxiously said, “No, no! If the mission isn’t completed, you’ll be in danger!”
Deirdre laughed softly, leaning softly against Da Fei, and said in a gentle voice, “But how could a man bear to kill a woman?”
—Apu! Da Fei spat out a mouthful of blood! What the heck, is this the legendary tale of female students and professors? Luckily, this is a game, otherwise, I’d have risked everything to blow up that tower and crush him!
Da Fei sighed inwardly. It seemed she was determined to take this risk. Given the current situation, running away wouldn’t solve anything. It wouldn’t work out to rely on that single Flower Demon barracks to accumulate soldiers, right? Since I don’t know how to cultivate her into a hero, let’s just do as she wishes. Once she becomes a hero, I won’t have to worry about her safety. I’ll support her. Even if she doesn’t become a hero, gaining further trust will be beneficial for our actions.
Da Fei then asked, “Can you use help on the task of clearing the Resentful Spirits?”
Deirdre smiled, “Thank you for your support, Master. I do urgently need help! The quicker I complete the task, the more likely I’ll be appreciated.”
“Then let’s act quickly.”
The so-called chasm should be the dumping ground for the Demons. All creatures that resisted them were killed and piled up here, forming a stinking Bone Mountain. Where there are dead bodies, there are usually Resentful Spirits, which are common task monsters in the game. Their attack strategy mainly includes haunted houses, pranks, and sabotage, which are indeed troublemakers (thrilling). This might be the reason the mentor issued this task.
As Nihility Bodies, the Resentful Spirits had excellent physical evasion attributes and could absorb the enemy’s mana to replenish their own life, qualifying them as the most annoying level 3 units. Their weakness was fear of Spirit Magic such as “Soul Scream” and “Banshee’s Howl.” Unfortunately, Deirdre, who claimed expertise in Spirit Magic in front of the mentor, still could not master these spells and urgently needed help. Da Fei, with two Elite Charm Emperors in tow, indeed provided strong support with his attack and defense bonuses.
Normal Banshees had low damage, limiting the power of their Chain Shooting. But elite and BOSS-level Banshees were different, and with lightning flashing continuously, the roaming Resentful Spirits in the chasm were cleared.
—System Prompt: Deirdre completed the task “Clear the Disruptive Resentful Spirits in the Chasm” within the time limit. Please return to Siriel immediately to report.
Deirdre exclaimed in joy, “Thank you, Master! Completing the task so quickly will definitely make the mentor see me differently.”
Da Fei suddenly said, “Wait, there’s still one left!”
Deirdre exclaimed in surprise, “Another one?”
Da Fei nodded solemnly. Indeed, Da Fei’s mini-map radar still showed a red dot, which hadn’t been paid much attention to initially. It wasn’t until the task was completed that it was noticed that there was still a monster uncleared. This meant the monster had never shown itself.
Da Fei knew that the world seen with his God-level Reconnaissance Skill differed from ordinary players, so this monster that had never shown itself might be a hidden BOSS! With such a big Bone Mountain and such a huge scene, it’s only reasonable to have a BOSS, right? If it hasn’t shown itself yet is such a big red dot, wouldn’t it be like a sun if it did show up?
Ghost Vengeful Spirits and the like are usually defined as Plane creatures, which means that it should be hiding in the Otherworld. The Otherworld is within the reconnaissance range of his God-level Reconnaissance Skill and the attack range of the Phantom Crossbow Cannon! Yet, without bringing the Phantom Crossbow Cannon and uncertain if time permitted to kill the BOSS, according to workplace principles, it’s always best to ask permission early and report results late. Although independently acting employees might surprise their leaders, more often they displeased them.
Da Fei, with a plan in mind, immediately said, “Here’s the chance to achieve great feats and genuinely make the mentor see you differently! You report back and say there’s still a powerful Resentful Spirit hidden, and ask the mentor if you should kill it! The mentor will surely be amazed by your discovery and talent and approve of your plan to kill it, then we’ll finish off this Resentful Spirit and surprise him!”
Deirdre, filled with joy, said, “Okay, I’ll report back immediately!”
Da Fei nodded, “Time is tight, let’s act quickly. I’ll go back now to fetch the crossbow cannon to deal with it!”
Da Fei set the two Charm Emperors to Independent Expedition status, letting them stay in place, hide, and then found a lava pool to jump in. Oh yeah! Indeed, the fastest way to return was to die and revive! That’s the convenience of games.
Da Fei revived in the Captain’s cabin, rushed to the gun cabin to dismantle the Phantom Crossbow Cannon.
…
At this moment, the Magic Watchtower. Deirdre was glancing around at the door, waiting for Shireka’s arrival.
Boom! Amid the roar of flames, Shireka, having inspected other watchtowers, made a grand entrance via Teleportation Movement. His attitude remained arrogant, “It seems you’re quite smug about your success?”
Deirdre immediately responded, “No, mentor—”
Shireka shouted angrily, “Shut up! You are not worthy!”
Deirdre hastily said, “Report to the General, although I cleared all the Resentful Spirits, a stronger one remains hidden. I request instructions from the General on whether to kill it?”
Sure enough, Shireka’s entire body of flames suddenly trembled, “A stronger Resentful Spirit? How did you discover it?”
Deirdre smiled coquettishly, “A woman’s intuition…”
Shireka laughed wildly, “Is that so? Then as you wish, go eliminate it with your woman’s intuition! There’s no time limit for this task, but I hope you can make it for the handover shift by tomorrow morning!”
—System Prompt: Deirdre received the task “Eliminate the Culprit in the Chasm!”
At this moment, Da Fei, having finished packaging the Phantom Crossbow Cannon, clenched his fist with joy upon seeing this information, “Oh yeah!”
Damn, why am I not as happy accepting my task as I am excited about an enemy’s task? This isn’t good, not good…
