Chapter 764 - 725: Traveling Solo to Europe
After promoting Tachiusu and Tamilia, Sazer smiled and said, "Alright, I must return to host the server room. If you have any questions about the examination task, please ask Miss Ror. Once you’re ready, come find me."
After finishing, [Sazer] once again turned into a golden light and scattered, leaving behind a greatly vexed Da Fei.
At that moment, Ror came up smiling and said: "City Lord, your performance is so outstanding, and your abilities so exceptional, I believe you will definitely alleviate the crisis of our allies!"
Damn it, what allies! Once it’s National War Zone time, everyone is a fierce competitor, okay! I wish they’d all drop dead in the European Union Zone! Especially those Brits, the sneakiest of the lot. Last time, they kicked off a youth street protest in Hong Kong to make China the laughingstock of the whole world, totally sickening us for over a month! If I helped the British out, I’d be branded a traitor, the sinner of our nation!
Moreover, I must prepare for the journey to the Eastern World today or tomorrow; where would I find time to go to the European Union Zone? What if the campaign there drags on and disrupts my big plans? And more importantly, going to the European Union Zone means I’ll be all on my own. Who would listen to my commands? Even if they were overwhelmed by my God Slayer Dragon Slayer’s domineering presence and begged me to command them, I don’t have the talent to direct them at all! I know nothing about commanding! I even doubt whether the system’s built-in translator can accurately translate my words!
Most likely, if I went there, their troops would probably stab me in the back and try to sabotage me, am I meant to squander my precious Merit Points to get myself beaten up? Am I supposed to go to the European Union Zone and slay another giant dragon? The maps aren’t even the same, okay! And the NPCs there might not be as generous to offer me the Divine Power Staff, okay? Plus, Selville who can use the Divine Power Staff is still studying abroad and can’t make it, okay?
When you add all these unfavorable factors together, it boils down to three words: I don’t wanna go!
Da Fei, extremely vexed, said: "Miss Ror, can I choose not to go?"
Ror frowned and said, "Warrior, the Divine Realm examination is as sacred as the commands of the gods. How can you refuse to comply? Failing the task is a matter of ability, but refusing to fight is an attitude problem, which will greatly diminish your prestige in the Divine Realm’s assessment."
Da Fei twitched his eyebrows: "Right, will there be a penalty if I fail to complete the task? Can I still be evaluated by the Divine Punishment Crusade?"
Ror frowned and said, "It’s indeed hard to predict victory or defeat. If the warrior fails to complete the task, it’s not a problem. As long as you continue to make significant achievements for us, you can still get Lord Sazer’s recommendation and undergo the Divine Realm’s examination again."
Da Fei hurriedly asked: "Will the next examination be a cross-region support task?"
Ror shook her head: "This cross-region task is very special, and it’s also very special to assign the examination task to you, City Lord, who are not even level 50. In any case, even if the warrior fails, there should not be too much penalty. City Lord, don’t feel too much pressure. A normal examination task should probably be about achieving in your own battle zone, right?"
Da Fei suddenly realized: "I see! I understand now!"
No matter how tricky the system quest is, there’s a routine to follow, but players, especially hostile players, will use every trick in the book. The moment they get the chance, they’ll definitely make sure you’re screwed. So, I definitely won’t jump into this big pit in the European Union Zone, but not going will affect my standing in the Divine Realm. So, I might as well go sightseeing and go through the motions, solo! After all, teleporting troops consumes Merit Points, so I should save where I can.
As for the evaluation of the Divine Punishment Crusade, such high-end and difficult tasks must be undertaken in my home territory. Besides, I don’t have the time or energy to develop it right now; I can only put it on hold.
Thus, Da Fei laughed and said: "Miss Ror, I’m ready. Let’s set off now!"
Ror looked deeply surprised: "Warrior City Lord, the situation in the Europe Zone is extremely intense. Please, make sure you’re fully prepared!"
It’s precisely because it’s intense that I’m even less likely to prepare! Da Fei laughed: "I feel that such a significant battle should really be left up to them to handle on their own."
Ror frowned and said, "Fine, if that’s the case, please come to the teleportation hall!"
So, Da Fei came to the hall’s Teleportation Array, and Sazer appeared again, cutting straight to the point: "My lord, please select the heroes and troops you’ll take into battle!"
Staring at the pop-up selection box, Da Fei was suddenly stunned: "I have to bring troops?"
Sazer nodded: "Yes, one must have troops to qualify as an army."
Damn it! Fine, I’ll just bring one single soldier! But whom to bring? Right, I’ll bring Angel Honey Elifel, she won’t die since she’s bound by the Angel Contract with Selvia, and she claims to be well-versed in the affairs of the Divine Realm, so taking her is like bringing along a tour guide.
Thus, Da Fei selected just one soldier, then confirmed!
Sazer couldn’t help but be astonished: "My lord, are you sure?"
Da Fei solemnly said: "Confirmed!"
Sazer sighed: "Very well, I wish you boundless fortune in warfare!"
With a flash of golden light, Da Fei’s screen went black!
—System Prompt: You have accepted the National War Assessment task "Go to the European Union Divine Punishment City and repel the siege of the Demon Army." Your character’s cross-server teleportation is now in progress. Your little national flag icon will soon be enabled, and your translation system is automatically activating. Please wait patiently.
—System Prompt: You are about to enter the European Union Divine Punishment City. Once you complete your task or choose to abandon it, you can lead your troops back to your server zone. Returning will still consume your Merit Points.
Look, I said it, even returning consumes Merit Points; this mission is indeed a huge trap! Lucky I’m not bringing troops. But this is still my first time traveling abroad. Isn’t it too hasty to depart like this? What if it doesn’t show any grandeur, wouldn’t that be embarrassing for Chinese people?
Ah, thinking about it that way, Da Fei suddenly felt a slight regret. Anyway, I should at least see what special products the European Union Zone has. I’m bringing tens of millions of Gold Coins in cash after all; I have to buy some souvenirs to make this trip abroad worthwhile.
Finally, the scene changed, and Da Fei appeared in a bustling golden hall filled with clamor.
Da Fei looked around and, as expected, saw players from various European countries with their national flags above their heads. And wasn’t that blue flag with a white cross the very flag of the British?
What Da Fei didn’t know was that his own brightly colored Five-star Red Flag over his head, along with his name in Chinese characters and pinyin, "大飞 (DaFei)," was the most eye-catching sight in the hall. So, in the next moment, all eyes in the hall turned towards Da Fei all at once, and the bustling noise came to a sudden halt!
Da Fei’s bottom tightened instantly! Damn it, can we pay attention to manners and not gawk at a foreign visitor?
—"DaFei!!!" The next instant, the entire hall, the entire channel of the Divine Punishment City, exploded in shock!
