It was still the same plaza. Everyone was waiting for the arrival of the receptionist, but at this time, the people gradually began to stand in groups. Three Dwarf players stood together with the last human player. Next to them was an Elf player who came out to say that he was a diehard fan. Now, the Elf player was talking non-stop. The other four people didn't pay much attention to him as they were thinking about something else.
Counter Front stood on the other side with four Elf players. It was obvious that these people were mainly from Counter Front. Since Counter Front didn't speak, the others didn't say anything either. They just stood there quietly.
On Li Huailin's side, only Night Flight was still standing next to him. Night Flight could also feel a few Dwarf players were pointing at him and Li Huailin, but he didn't care.
"Hey, Huailin, don't you think it's strange that there are so many diehard fans popping out all of a sudden?" Night Flight thought about it and decided to remind Li Huailin. The main thing was that this guy was not very reliable, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Of course it's strange. Didn't they say that I only have a total of 20,000 fans? How could I meet five of them here?" Li Huailin spread his hands and said, "I just don't know what they want."
"I think they saw that you killed two people and thought that you wanted to clear the place. So, they wanted to quickly get close to you." Night Flight's analysis ability was very strong. From his point of view, if he didn't know Li Huailin beforehand, he would probably think the same way. However, even if he thought that way, he wouldn't do it because he was the vice leader of Spirit World. He couldn't afford to lose face like that.
"Eh? Is that so? "Li Huailin was stunned." I didn't want to clear the place … Eh … That's a good idea … "
"… I think I heard something terrible." Night Flight was speechless.
"Do you know that human player over there?" Li Huailin suddenly asked.
"Oh, him? I know him." Night Flight nodded and said, "He's the son of the Guangtai Group, a super-rich second-generation heir. His real name is Song Wenhan, and his in-game name … I think it's Ruitu. He built a guild and recruited thousands of people, but they're all relying on money to support it. It's a guild without any foundation at all."
"Guangtai Group? You mean the group that makes smart computer chips? "Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, that's the group. The total assets of the entire group are estimated to be tens of billions, so this guy is the kind of person who has too much money to spend. If it weren't for the fact that time was tight and we couldn't receive any donations, I'm guessing his ranking would be higher than World Destroyer's, "Night Flight said.
"The kind of people who are stupid and have a lot of money?" Li Huailin asked.
"I remember someone from ancient times saying that the first person to do something is a genius, the second person is an ordinary person, and the third person is an idiot. The first person to jump out just now is that Elf player. He should be the quickest. Song Wenhan is the second, and he's considered average. Those three Dwarves over there are all idiots, "Night Flight commented.
"Hehe." Li Huailin laughed.
"In fact, we've checked and very few people choose the Dwarf race. Basically, all the major guilds have either Humans or Elves. The top experts are also basically from these two races. The competition among the Dwarves doesn't seem to be that big. For example, I don't recognize any of the three people who came today. I don't even know which guild they are from," Night Flight said as he pointed to the three Dwarves.
After chatting for a while, the receptionist finally arrived. The receptionist was a male NPC. He was still wearing the Pet Home Island uniform, but it was more advanced than what Li Huailin had seen. At the very least, the workmanship was much more exquisite.
"Welcome to Pet Home Island." The receptionist walked to the center of the square and then said to everyone, "Please follow me. I'll introduce you to the situation of this island as we walk."
Everyone did not say anything and began to follow the receptionist. Their destination was a white building in the distance. One had to admit that the environment here was quite good. There were all kinds of gardens and grasslands around them. There were also all kinds of small animals running around. It was a peaceful scene. The surrounding buildings were also pure white, looking very clean and tidy.
"Pet Home Island is an isolated island in the southeastern part of the Lost Sea. Only the teleportation array is connected to the outside world. Ordinary players are not allowed to enter." The receptionist introduced as he walked. "This time, we have gathered all the warriors here because our Guild Leader obtained a rare pet egg a few days ago. As this pet egg is a combat-type, it will be more beneficial for this little life to grow if it follows a warrior. Hence, the Guild Leader thought of choosing a warrior to take care of this pet egg.
"This is the main hall of Pet Home. The Guild Leader is waiting for you inside." The receptionist said as he led Li Huailin and the others to the entrance of the huge white building. As they approached, although the white building was completely white, it still looked quite majestic. The shape of the building was also very strange. The roof was somewhat spindle-shaped, looking a bit like the shape of the Taj Mahal.
Soon, the door opened by itself. What greeted them was another expanse of white. It seemed that the architectural style of this Pet Home was a white house. Everything was white.
In the middle of the house was a white table, and the table was filled with documents. Behind the table sat an old man with a white beard. This old man looked very old, at least seventy or eighty years old. Not only was his hair and beard white, but it was also very long. His hair was directly draped behind him, and his beard was braided in front. The NPC's name was displayed as Alfred Von Landsbeck.
"Welcome, everyone." Alfred said as he stood up. His movements were very elegant, and his etiquette was on point. "I am the Guild Leader of Pet Home, Alfred. Thank you for coming."
"Greetings, Guild Leader." A few people replied in a scattered manner.
"Everyone should have heard that this time, I have gathered everyone here mainly for this pet egg."
President Alfred said as he took out a white basketball-sized egg. "This was accidentally obtained a few days ago. As for its quality, I can only say that I can't identify it."
"Eh? I wonder what quality it is? " This sentence made everyone a little surprised. Originally, they thought that the "rare pet egg" mentioned in the mission would probably be of gold, epic, or legendary quality. They didn't expect that it was because the quality couldn't be identified. This was a little thought-provoking. This egg was either super high quality, or it was something useless.
"Don't worry. Considering the place where it was picked up, it should be a good pet egg."
President Alfred said with a smile. "Okay, now let's talk about the mission and rules."
Speaking of this, the scene immediately quieted down. Everyone was listening carefully.
"Since everyone is recommended by the higher-ups, then you must have made outstanding contributions to Pet Home. There should be no need to verify the love for pets. "
Alfred said. "Because this is a pet for combat, in order to take better care of its growth, this mission is mainly to test everyone's strength, courage, and wisdom."
"Oh, that's great. There's no need to test the love for small pets." Li Huailin thought.
"In this mission, all those who die will not lose experience, nor will they drop equipment. However, after death, you will be immediately teleported back to the place where you were summoned. At the same time, you will lose the qualification to compete, so please do not die."
Alfred said. "Moreover, this mission will not necessarily determine a winner. If all the players die, then I will not choose any of you. I will hold another competition mission to choose the person who will take care of this little guy."
"Now, listen carefully to the goal of this mission."
As Alfred said, he took out an item that looked like a blue crystal out of nowhere. This crystal was quite large, about the size of the egg just now. The entire crystal was diamond-shaped, and it was also emitting a strange white shimmer.
"This is a type of crystal that is a specialty of the neighboring Lorent Island. The production is very small, and it is very precious. There is a cave on the top of the mountain in the northeast of our island. There are also many of these crystals in there. This time, the mission is to find one of these crystals. Since there is more than one of these crystals, if many people get it, the one who gets it first and hands it to me will be the winner. "
Alfred said, "Alright, there's no time limit for the quest. It won't stop until someone gives me this crystal or all of you are dead. If you get the crystal, come find me here. I'll be waiting. Basically, that's all. You can move now."
