Du Feng had been in the North Shore Immortal City for a few months, and it wasn't far from the half-year deadline. Time was no longer a problem, but he didn't have 100,000 points. If only he had hunted more Big Head Fish last time, he could have saved some time.
Previously, Du Feng had killed 1,500 Big Head Fish and got another 500 from the man with the goatee's storage ring. He had a total of 2,000 Big Head Fish and exchanged them for 16,000 points. He was still 84,000 points away from his target of 100,000 points.
He glanced at the new mission book and immediately figured out the points of the various missions. Who said that Heaven Immortal missions were worth it? It was obvious that Golden Immortal missions were worth more points.
Du Feng hadn't seen Golden Immortal missions before, and he had only heard about them from others. He had thought that Heaven Immortal missions were worth it. Now it seemed that wasn't the case at all. The lowest reward for a Golden Celestial's mission was ten points. He could get 10 points for every level-17 demon beast or water monster he killed.
After all, level-17 demons were more valuable. No matter how ferocious the Big Head Fish was, it was only level-16.
Kill the Underground Hamsters in the ruins. Every kill will give you 25 points. This mission seemed to be worth a lot of points, and the Underground Hamsters weren't very strong. Even a first-stage Golden Immortal warrior could defeat them. However, Du Feng wasn't interested in this mission at all.
The Underground Hamsters hid in the rat holes deep underground. It would take a long time to find one. Even if he found and killed it, he would only get 25 points, which was too much of a waste of time.
The other mission was much better. It was to catch Bamboo Blade Fish, which only gave ten points. The premise was that the Bamboo Blade Fish had to be alive, and the fish's body couldn't be damaged, not even its skin.
Du Feng understood at a glance that the level-17 Bamboo Blade Fish was definitely the same as the level-16 pufferfish. They were both popular food for the rich and powerful in the city. It was because of their dietary needs that they became mission items.
100 pufferfish could be exchanged for one point, and one Bamboo Blade Fish was worth 10 points. Apart from the fact that it was a level-17 fish, another reason was that it had a certain amount of attack power. Since the Bamboo Blade Fish had the word "Bamboo Blade" in its name, it definitely had something to do with blades.
This fish had a slender body, and its head was sharp like a flying knife. It swam very fast. When it bumped into someone in the water, it felt like being stabbed by a flying knife. If it was one or two Bamboo Blade Fish, it would be fine. He could dodge them with his body movement technique. If there were three or five of them, then he would have to activate his True Essence Shield to resist for a while and then counterattack.
But once there were dozens or even hundreds of them, it was equivalent to hundreds of flying daggers attacking at the same time. Encountering such a situation, human martial artists basically had to run for their lives. If they were too slow, they might very well lose their lives.
The worst part was that this fish couldn't be killed and could only be caught alive. If one used an immortal technique that was too powerful to kill as a group, they would only end up with a pile of broken corpses. They wouldn't even be able to exchange for a single point.
Tsk, tsk, tsk … these rich men really knew how to eat. Such a dangerous fish was actually eaten as high-grade food. Perhaps behind every fish they ate, there was a living life. Du Feng originally thought this mission was not bad, but he didn't take it after thinking about it.
He wasn't afraid of being besieged by the Bamboo Blade Fish, mainly because he felt that it was too troublesome to catch them alive, and he didn't want to catch them for others to eat.
Huh, this mission is a bit interesting.
Du Feng continued to scan and found a very special mission. This mission wasn't to catch or kill fish in the river, but an island mission. Although the Heavenly River was just a river, it was actually very, very large. In the long Heavenly River, there were some islands.
Some of these islands were inhabited by human martial artists who had established their own tribes, and some were inhabited by river demons who had transformed into human forms. They had also formed a certain force. The island that Du Feng wanted to go to was occupied by a group of river demons. These river demons had a certain level of intelligence and would use the water monsters in the river to harass human boats.
In particular, fishing boats with weak defenses were often overturned by them. For example, many of the fishermen who rented the Li family's fishing boats were killed by them.
"Okay, I'll take this mission."
Du Feng didn't hesitate anymore and accepted the mission without hesitation. Because this mission was very rewarding. Killing a river demon would give him 100 points. In other words, killing a hundred river demons would give him 10,000 points easily. It felt much easier than killing the big-headed fish last time.
"Young man, listen to my advice. Don't court death. Why are you always biting off more than you can chew? Didn't you give up the last mission? "
The uncle who issued the mission still didn't know that Du Feng didn't give up the last time. He felt that this young man in front of him was always biting off more than he could chew, accepting missions with high rewards and then failing to complete them.
"Uncle, I'll take this mission. By the way, I didn't give up the last mission."
Du Feng smiled and replied politely to the uncle. Then he submitted the mission application. The uncle originally wanted to refuse, because it was tantamount to suicide to go to the island as a Cultivation Level 1 Golden Celestial. However, when he looked back at Du Feng's mission card, he suddenly found the points in it.
What? How is this possible? He only accepted one mission. Why did he get 16,000 points? What's going on? Others had to work dozens or hundreds of times to earn points. Why did he get them in one time?
If he remembered correctly, the mission he took last time was to kill a big-headed fish. 16,000 points meant that Du Feng hunted 2,000 big-headed fish and successfully brought back the fish eyes. It turned out that this young man wasn't biting off more than he could chew, but he was far stronger than his peers.
"Ahem … I've misunderstood you."
"But I have to warn you. Be careful of your companions' plots later."
The uncle pretended to cough to cover up his embarrassment. At the same time, he kindly reminded Du Feng that apart from the river demons, he also had to be careful of his companions' plots. Although he accepted the mission alone, he would still board the same boat as other martial artists. Even if they didn't board the same boat, they would still meet on the island.
