The sudden appearance of the Gargoyle caused an uproar among the players. However, it was fine as long as there were monsters to fight. The next moment, all the players and the NPC guards of Duke's Mansion swarmed up. Rows of "Physical Damage Immunity" and "Damage Recoil" appeared on the screen. The Gargoyle was invulnerable. The lower-level players who attacked the Gargoyle did indeed die from the recoil.
All the players were in an uproar! The team commander shouted, "All lower-level players retreat. Let the higher-level players take over!" Then the team commander realized a problem. "Damn! This monster can heal! How are we going to fight it? "
Someone immediately replied, "We have more people. We'll exhaust our stamina and mana to kill it!"
"Okay, we have more people. We can't beat it, but we can exhaust it!"
All the players shouted excitedly, "Exhaust it! Exhaust it! "The whole scene was dazzling, and data flew everywhere.
At this point in the live broadcast, there was no more suspense. Even a god couldn't stop the sea of people. The only suspense was whether the Gargoyle would fly away if it had wings. Dafei was also deep in thought. Obviously, if it weren't for the tycoons tearing down the house, this gargoyle might not have been discovered. So this mission was obviously a hidden mission. What effect would this hidden mission have on the subsequent events? With Makar's ambition, would he place a Gargoyle in every important building in the country? If he used this opportunity to find all of his Gargoyles, what would he discover? Would he be more obedient, or would he rebel in advance?
Just as Dafei was deep in thought, the Gargoyle let out a long roar and started to fly. All the players were in an uproar. "Damn, it's running away!" "That's a boss that can fight watermelon!"
Dafei frowned. It really ran away! This Gargoyle was most likely a Celestial boss. Only a Celestial boss was worthy of monitoring Duke, right?
At this moment, a golden light flashed in the sky. A huge Griffin appeared in the sky. "Let me see if you can run?"
All the players cheered. "Piggy, run!"
The next moment, the Gryphon swooped down with a Thunder Wind Shield around its body, knocking the Gargoyle down from the sky. The players on the ground immediately surrounded it and attacked it. Screams rang out from all over the place!
Seeing this, Dafei was relieved. Even if this Gargoyle was a God Tier Boss, it was probably finished. It could only be said that the Gargoyle's God-tier abilities were all in its defense and recovery abilities. Its attack methods were really lacking. Otherwise, any God-tier monster could kill all the ants in the area with a shockwave, and it wouldn't have fallen to such a state.
Finally, after ten minutes, the Gargoyle, which had tried to escape multiple times but failed, exploded into pieces. All the players who participated in the battle heard the sound of a system notification.
— System Notice: Congratulations! You have completed William Duke's Battlefield Quest "Exterminate the Demon Gargoyles". You have received 30,000 EXP and 530 Lionheart Empire Merit Points. You have received William Duke's pardon for your previous disrespectful actions. You have received William Duke's favour.
"Eh …" The entire audience booed in disappointment.
This reward was simply amazing. But it couldn't be helped. With so many people participating in the battle, the rewards were naturally distributed. The next moment, the major guilds called for the event to end. The normal players, who had nothing to watch, naturally scattered.
At this point, what Dafei had to do was, of course, wait for their good news. No, it was already good news. He had saved himself 20 million EXP! He would find an opportunity to give out this saved money as a red packet to increase his luck.
So, Dafei once again focused on the God's Punishment Ruins within the Flaming Storm. At this time, the Flaming Storm was getting stronger and stronger, and his HP was dropping more and more. But it didn't matter. As long as he had mana, he could use healing skills and meditate to endure it. Moreover, the level of this Flaming Storm was much lower than the Void Storm that Dafei had experienced before. The Void Storm would directly empty the players' mana. That was really unplayable.
Soon, Zhou Qing's friend message rang again. "Brother Fei, fortunately I didn't let you down. This is the oil painting you wanted, right?" After saying that, he sent a screenshot.
Looking at the clear screenshot, Dafei was moved to tears. Looking at the collapsed stone pillars on the side of the painting, Dafei's tears flowed even more. So this Duke was near the ruins of the God's Punishment Ruins. It didn't matter whether the players could fly or not. Why did I fly around such a large area for so long? Sure enough, the more advanced a person was and the more far-sighted they were, the easier it was for them to ignore the things under their feet and enter into the blind spots of their thinking.
Thinking of this, Dafei suddenly wanted to play a joke on Beauty Zhou to see if she would enter into the blind spots of her thinking. So, Dafei smiled and said, "Okay, thank you everyone for your hard work. When I'm free, I'll use the 20 million EXP you guys saved for me to give out some red packets. As for now, I have a small question to liven things up. Beauty, are you interested in answering it?"
Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Then I'll thank Brother Fei in advance for the red packet. Brother Fei, feel free to ask the question."
Dafei coughed dryly and said, "Please listen to the question. If 1 = 4, 2 = 8, 3 = 24, then may I ask, 4 =?"
Zhou Qing was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, "Brother Fei, are you playing a game of numbers? Or are you playing a brain teaser? If it's a game of numbers, then it's 4 = 96. But obviously, it conflicts with the first condition, 1 = 4. So the answer is already written on it. 4 = 1! "
Dafei was stunned! Back then, I arrogantly told my nephew in kindergarten that it was 96! Dafei sighed inwardly and pretended to encourage him. "Very good, this shows that your thinking is very clear. Some of the high-end quests in this game and the way to solve the high-end scenarios are often not that complicated. The truth is often right under your nose."
Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Fei, for your guidance. By the way, this Duke butler has given the follow-up quests to the members with the highest achievements. I'll send a screenshot of the quest to Brother Fei. Brother Fei, can you help me?"
Dafei raised his eyebrows. "No problem!"
After a while, Zhou Qing's screenshot of the quest came over:
— System Notification: You have received the quest 'Guard William Duke' from William.
— Quest Description: Warriors, when Prince William lost the power to inherit the throne, we moved from the palace to this Duke's mansion. We have lived here for almost 20 years and have not discovered the conspiracy here. Clearly, Lord Duke's deteriorating health is slowly being poisoned by this gargoyle. And this gargoyle can actually disguise itself as an angel, which shows that it is very powerful, and the conspirator behind it is even more powerful. Now that the conspirator's conspiracy has been exposed, I don't know what will happen next, but it is very likely that the conspirator will come to assassinate Duke. Only you can protect Duke's safety …
After reading the message, Dafei suddenly understood. So that's how it is! So, Dafei immediately made a suggestion. "I know that the Lionheart Empire is not stable internally, and there is a powerful minister who will rebel at any time. This Duke William was a genius when he was young, and although he has grown up, there is still a chance that he will return as the king. When that time comes, he will be the emperor, so I suggest that you build walls and arrow towers outside Duke's mansion to protect him!"
Zhou Qing was shocked and in disbelief. "The empire is not stable internally? There will be a rebellion? "
You women only know how to eat, drink, and have fun. You have no sense of politics at all! Dafei said proudly, "Of course! Also, I suggest that the person who has a deeper quest line can go to the capital to take a look. Since that conspirator can plant a gargoyle in Duke's mansion, of course, he can also plant it in the homes of other important officials. "
Zhou Qing said seriously, "Understood. Let Piglet run over. He has just accepted Duke's quest, and he has a reputation in the Heavenly Realm. He has a lot of face in the Lionheart Empire, so it will not be a problem for him to go."
"Uh — okay! Let's see how this guy does! "
"Brother Fei, don't worry, we will do it immediately."
Although Dafei really wanted to ask Piglet if the Heavenly Realm he was in was the legendary heaven, he did not ask in the end, so he did not ask. Sigh, the ancients said, "Those who are capable are teachers, don't be ashamed to ask … Brother, I can't do that."
