"I … I'm sorry. How about I pay the fine for you?"
The little girl in charge of receiving Du Feng was so nervous that she stuttered. She didn't do it on purpose, but Thunder City's missions were randomly issued. The mission that was sent to her just now was to kill the Scarlet Flame Tiger.
"No need!"
Du Feng understood the rules and didn't blame the little girl. After all, an ordinary staff member of the city defense office didn't earn much. Besides, it wasn't her fault.
"Then, do you want to cancel the mission?"
The little girl knew that Du Feng was very rich, so paying the fine was not a big deal. If he were to exchange the Contribution Points he had just earned for weapons or armor, he would be able to earn quite a bit of money.
"No, I'll accept it."
Du Feng had a habit of not giving up no matter what he did. The mission to kill the Scarlet Flame Tiger was quite a trap. The combat power of this thing was not any weaker than a level 7 Fire Fox. This was similar to some peak level 9 warriors in the Void Sea Realm being able to kill some level 7 demonic beasts.
The combat power of tiger-type demonic beasts was already very strong. The Scarlet Flame Tiger was also a peak level 6 demonic beast. Under the enhancement of the volcanic environment, its combat power was no different from a level 7 demonic beast. This thing couldn't be killed by fire. It would only become more and more ferocious. The difficulty of killing it was no less than the Armored Crocodile. Moreover, its speed was very fast. It couldn't rely on guerrilla tactics to win.
"You really want to accept it? Don't you want to think about it?"
The little girl blinked her eyes. She seemed to have something else to say, but due to the situation, it was inconvenient to say it.
"No need to think about it. Leave it to me."
If Du Feng said he would accept it, then he would accept it. It was just a Scarlet Flame Tiger. If he was unlucky, he would encounter a male and female at the same time. After killing it, he could just move on to the next mission. There was no need to give up the mission and act as if he was afraid.
"Okay, please read the mission requirements carefully."
The little girl handed a jade strip to Du Feng. On it, there was a detailed description of the mission.
Killing the Scarlet Flame Tiger would give him one contribution point. Sure enough, it was a trap. Retrieving the inner core would give him one contribution point. It was just as he had imagined. However, as Du Feng continued to read, he discovered something different. Anyone who brought back a Scarlet Flame Tiger Skin that was more than 90% complete would be rewarded with 100 Contribution Points. If you bring back a 100% complete Scarlet Flame Tiger Skin, you will receive 500 Contribution Points.
F * ck, what was the meaning of this? There was actually a special benefit? Why didn't anyone mention it before? Du Feng pondered for a moment and understood what was going on. This was because when warriors received the Scarlet Flame Tiger quest, they would directly pay the fine and change their character. Therefore, very few people knew the specific content of the reward.
It was also possible that the City Lord's Mansion noticed that there were too few people who wanted to hunt the Scarlet Flame Tiger, so they purposely increased the bounty. No matter what, Du Feng did not lose anything this time. Bringing back a complete Scarlet Flame Tiger Skin would earn him 500 Contribution Points. That was equivalent to killing 500 Fire Foxes.
There was another condition that was even more amazing. If one could bring back a living Scarlet Flame Tiger, they could directly obtain 10,000 Contribution Points. This number was about the same as the five Fire Fox Caves that Du Feng had cleared today. The Fire Fox Caves could not be cleared forever, but capturing five Scarlet Flame Tigers alive did not have much of an impact. It seemed like this was a blessing in disguise.
"Is this person sick in the head? Why is he so happy after receiving the Scarlet Flame Tiger quest?"
"He must have been scared silly, or he doesn't have the money to pay the fine."
"What's wrong with your eyes? Would a young master dressed like this not have the money to pay the fine? Maybe he just wanted to try it out."
Seeing Du Feng walking out happily, the cultivators started to point at him and discuss him. Some people felt that he did not know the rules and didn't know how difficult it was to kill the Scarlet Flame Tiger. Some people felt that he was unwilling to pay the fine. After all, it was not a small amount. There was really a warrior who was unwilling to pay the fine. In the end, he was eaten by the Scarlet Flame Tiger. Not even his bones were left.
Of course, there were also people who felt that Du Feng was not someone who lacked money and wanted to give it a try first. Although the Scarlet Flame Tiger was powerful, it was still a Class 6 demonic beast. Since the City Lord's Mansion classified it as a Class 6 demonic beast, it should have its weakness. As long as this weakness was grasped, it would be easy to kill it.
Thinking up to this point, a few curious warriors secretly followed Du Feng. They wanted to see how Du Feng fought with the Scarlet Flame Tiger. If they managed to learn some ultimate moves, they could flaunt it in the future. Who knew that after Du Feng accepted the quest, he didn't leave the city. Instead, he went to the pharmacy to buy medicine.
After buying the medicine, he returned to the inn. He didn't leave the city for a few days and kept a low profile. A few of the curious cultivators had their curiosity ground to the point where they could not be bothered to follow anymore. They thought that this brat might have accepted the quest just because of his reputation. Maybe after a few days, when there were fewer people, he would secretly pay the fine and reject the quest. After all, it was too embarrassing to reject the quest on the spot. He would return it after a few days and pretend that he had already fought with the Scarlet Flame Tiger.
"Seventh older brother, I broke through again."
After this period of hard work and with the elixirs provided by Du Feng, Du Yu 'er had already broken through for the second time. She broke through from the initial stage of the first level of the Origin Realm to the second level. Now, she broke through to the middle stage of the third level. In comparison, Murong Mansha was originally at the middle stage of the second level of the Origin Realm. Now, she had just broken through to the middle stage of the third level. Her improvement was slightly smaller than Du Yu 'er.
"En, work hard. Entering the Seven Basaltic Mansions requires a Void Sea Realm Cultivation Realm."
Du Feng didn't mention that their beasts weren't good enough. Instead, he encouraged them to improve their Cultivation Realm beasts. Maybe Seven Basaltic Mansions's beasts were different from the ones in the Eastern Continent. Even if it wasn't good enough, he could use other methods to bring one in first. As for the other method, he would need Yuan Cheng's help to think of a solution.
As for Du Xue, Du Feng didn't have to worry. Because this lass's beast had already evolved. From a Snow Fox to an Ice Fox, it had surpassed the tenth grade. As for the reason for the evolution, she wasn't very clear herself. She guessed that it had something to do with the attribute of her cultivation technique. Of course, it could also be related to the snowy mountain environment that she used to live in.
Thinking back, Du Hao's beast suddenly evolved to the transcendent-grade because of the influence of the White Tiger Hall Master. As for Du Yu 'er, she lived on the snowy peak of the Snow Mountain Sect and practiced all kinds of ice attribute cultivation techniques. It wasn't necessarily because of a suitable condition, or because of a combination of conditions that led to the evolution of the beast.
