“Me? Why me? I’ve not been one before,” Wang Yu replied.
Fearless smiled. “I can be the president while you be the team leader. You don’t need any job experience for this as well. Moreover, you’re the one who suggested to join this tournament.”
“Really? I don’t need management experience?” The moment Wang Yu heard this, he grew interested.
“Of course, squad leader is different from president. Squad leader is usually the one who is best at fighting. You just need to kill whoever is unhappy with you,” Fearless replied.
Wang Yu smiled. “That is my specialty.”
“Fearless, you are a true b*stard!”
Everyone from the Quan Zhen Sect cursed at Fearless while he pretended to not see them.
People by the side heard and started discussing in fear, “Kill whoever is unhappy with you… This is indeed the Quan Zhen Sect. They seem to have an attitude of their own.”
Wang Yu walked over to the NPC, took out 20 gold and handed over the registration form. After that, the NPC pointed to a slot machine behind him and said, “Please collect your quest.”
Once the NPC said that, all the eyes fell on the slot machine pointed by the NPC. Everyone looked extremely serious and excited. After all, after a team obtained a high-level quest, it reduces the probability of getting another high-level quest.
“Old Bull ah, please don’t draw out an S-grade,” Spring Halo whispered by the side.
“Haha, you’re overestimating Old Bull.” Ming Du joked, “Other than some rare eccentric item, since when has Old Bull obtained any good item?”
“What do you know!” Wang Yu rolled his eyes as he activated the slot machine.
As the slot machine’s display spun, everyone’s heart almost reached their throat. Eventually, when the slot machine stopped, the emotionless NPC commented, “S-grade quest: In the depths of Dusk Forest, kill King of Beast, Dijun.”
<System Notification: You’ve activated squad quest “King of Beast Dijun”. Grade S, do you accept? Notification: This is an S-grade quest, you will not be able to draw again for the next 48 hours once you choose to give up.>
“…”
The entire hall turned silent once they heard what the NPC said. Everyone was holding in their laughter as no one dared to make any noise at all.
“F*ck! Old Bull you’re trash! You are not even this lucky when touching a BOSS!” Ming Du almost collapsed.
S-grade quest… Even though it was displayed at the administrative hall every day, the chances of drawing it was extremely low. Ever since this started, grade A and B quests had been given out but no team has drawn an S. Wang Yu was truly on another level. This was his first time doing something like that and he managed to draw an S-grade.
“Enough nonsense! I am the squad leader! If you’re not happy, I will kill you!” Wang Yu said with a black face.
“F*ck!”
Wang Yu didn’t bother with the weeping Ming Du as he turned to ask Fearless, “Is this S-grade quest very hard?”
“Not simple. When we first started this guild, we got B-grade quest and we almost got exterminated,” Fearless replied.
“Then are there any special rewards for higher grades quest?”
“No.” Fearless shook his head.
“… Interesting.” Wang Yu nodded his head before asking for Fearless’ opinion, “So do you think we should accept this?”
“Up to you, but the registration for the league tournament should only be these two days. After this period, I doubt we will be able to register anymore. Anyway, all of us prefer to throw brickbats from behind and not really interested in such an open competition.” Fearless was truly shameless on another level.
“What about you guys?” Wang Yu asked the rest of them. Wang Yu enjoyed challenging himself but he knew that he should be more democratic in such a situation.
“If we don’t agree, will you beat us up?” a cautious Vainglory asked.
“Yes.” Wang Yu nodded.
“Then I agree!”
“I agree too!”
Under Wang Yu’s democratic system, everyone agreed.
Once the votes were in, Wang Yu clicked on ‘Accept’.
<System Notification: You’ve accepted squad quest “King of Beast, Dijun”. Kill King of Beast, Dijun 0/1.>
Quest background: Twilight City is where the ancient mythological beast of the sun die. King of Beast, Dijun, has the bloodline of a mythological beast as it formed its own forces in Dusk Forest. It severely threatened Twilight City’s safety. If you want to prove your strength, go do something for Twilight City.
<Quest Notification: Purchase more fruits.>
Giving up on the quest: Twilight City merit points -200, fame -500.
“Hehe, ancient mythological bloodline!” Everyone started gossiping and commenting. In the game, the worst type of monsters to deal with were those with the word ‘ancient’ and those related to god.
Looking at the character introduction, everyone couldn’t help but think of the hidden worm BOSS that they faced in the faction quest.
An ancient beast was enough to scare a lot of players here, let alone an ancient mythological beast? Even though it was merely bloodline, it was something not everyone would dare to offend.
Seeing that Wang Yu really accepted the quest, the players in the hall suddenly stopped laughing as their joy turned into respect for the Quan Zhen Sect.
Knowing that it was an S-grade quest, they were still so direct and casual about accepting it. The confidence that the Quan Zhen Sect exuded was something they hoped to achieve.
“What? Are we really going to do this?” Ming Du was still in disbelief that they accepted this quest.
Fearless said, “Of course! Giving up the quest would deduct 200 main city points. You don’t want to live in Twilight City anymore?”
Main city merit points were not easy to increase even for experts like the Quan Zhen Sect. If they were to have 200 points deducted, one night was all it took to undo everything they did.
After leaving the hall, Boson sounded out just when Wang Yu was going to walk out of the city, “We haven’t bought any fruits yet.”
“Buy fruits?” Wang Yu was slightly confused. “Why are we buying fruits?”
“Didn’t the quest notification say that we should buy fruits?” Boson brought out the quest notification. It was no wonder he was in the research department; he really had the eye for details.
“…” Looking at Boson’s notification, everyone was dumbfounded. If the quest notification stated that they needed to buy fruits, they definitely needed to buy them. However, everyone played the game for such a long time and have never heard of places that sell fruits. They only knew where to buy wine and rice.
“Let’s go ask around.” Wang Yu opened up his friend list and sent out a mass message, “Who knows where to buy fruits?”
Once the message was sent out, many of them replied, “No idea.”
Some of them replied, “This game sells fruits?”
Some of them replied, “What? Why are you asking me this?”
Mu Zi Xian replied, “What? You want to eat fruits? I just bought some apples at home…”
“I’m doing a quest…” Wang Yu replied as he sighed. In such a crucial point, nobody was reliable.
Just when Wang Yu was depressed, the message list lit up again.
Wang Yu opened it up and it was Miss Red Spiderlily.
“There is a fruit stall which sells all sorts of fruits at the corner of the west gate. What do you like to eat?” Red Spiderlily asked.
“I like… Aiya, this has nothing to do with it. What are the coordinates of the fruit stall?” Wang Yu asked.
“Coordinates: xxxx.xxxx.”
“Thank you!” Wang Yu thanked her before telling the Quan Zhen Sect, “At the west gate.”
After saying that, Wang Yu brought his squad towards the coordinates sent by Red Spiderlily. After making numerous turns, they finally arrived at the fruit stall mentioned by Red Spiderlily.
