Yu Huicheng's sunset shone on the player's face through the narrow alleyway.
In the afterglow, Wang Yu saw the player's face clearly and was stunned. Wasn't this Meng Xi, Ming Jian Daoxue's girlfriend? Big Pretty? What a bullsh * t name!
Although Meng Xi had joined Quanzhen, she was the last one to join. Moreover, this lady's personality didn't fit in with Quanzhen's group of scum machines. Therefore, Wang Yu and Meng Xi hadn't spoken much. They were only familiar with each other's faces and names, but they hadn't interacted.
It was truly unexpected for them to meet in this dark and smelly alleyway.
When Meng Xi saw Wang Yu, she was dumbfounded and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Saying that, Meng Xi took out a few bottles of wine from her bag and handed them to Hermit.
"Me?" Wang Yu pointed at himself and asked Hermit, "What's going on, teacher?"
"Haha!"
Hermit smiled and said, "This is your companion for this mission."
Then, Hermit said to Meng Xi, "Big Pretty, this is my useless disciple. Let him accompany you on this exploration mission. If you need anything, just call him."
"Damn!"
Hearing Hermit's words, Wang Yu's face darkened. This old man couldn't stay in the Beggar Gang anymore and changed his profession to a pimp?
"You're his disciple?"
Although Meng Xi hadn't seen Wang Yu's abilities with her own eyes, she had heard a little about it. Hearing Hermit say that Wang Yu was his disciple, Meng Xi was also very surprised.
After all, in Meng Xi's impression, Wang Yu was an expert and the lord of a city. How could he be the disciple of such a stinky, lazy, and despicable old beggar?
"Oh! He's my class mentor. "Wang Yu replied with an embarrassed expression.
With that, Wang Yu asked Hermit, "What about my mission?"
After hearing Wang Yu's question, Hermit said in a rare serious tone, "This young lady told me that a dark rift has appeared in the west of the Essel Mountains. I hope you can accompany her to investigate it."
As soon as Hermit finished his sentence, Wang Yu received a system notification. [You have accepted the quest 'Dark Crevice'.]
[Mission level: None]
[Quest Details: Protect Player Meng Xi and investigate the Darkness Rift. Player Meng Xi has died. Quest ended.]
"This …"
After receiving the mission, Wang Yu was somewhat speechless as he asked Meng Xi, "This mission is yours?"
"En!"
Meng Xi glanced at Hermit and explained, "I received this quest when I came over from the European server. It's been a month since today, and the quest has been updated. They asked me to contact the NPCs here to receive it again."
In Rebirth, it was very complicated to cross regions. For the players' convenience, the quest would change according to the players' region within a certain period of time.
For example, Flowing Cloud was a Grandmaster of Combat's hidden sub-class. However, if one handed in the Grandmaster of Combat quest in Yu Huicheng, one could look for Yu Huicheng's hidden class mentor.
Similarly, if Meng Xi accepted the quest in the European server, she could look for a similar NPC in the Yu Huicheng region to hand in the quest. As Meng Xi had ignored the quest for a month, the system thought that she could not find the corresponding NPC, so the system automatically notified her that the quest had changed.
"Then why did you drag me into this when you accepted the quest?" Wang Yu was puzzled.
"I don't know." Meng Xi pointed at Hermit and said, "This old man asked me for money when he saw me. I gave it to him because he was so pitiful. In the end, he said that if I bought a few bottles of wine for him, he would find me a helper to complete the quest."
Great! Wang Yu finally understood. This old fart, Hermit, had actually accepted someone's money to make him, a student, work for someone else. He was too good at selling off his disciples.
"Hey, teacher!" Wang Yu was speechless. "How much money did you receive? Shouldn't you give me half of it? "
"Haha!" Old Man Hermit beamed as he took out five gold coins and said, "What you said makes sense. Here, this is yours."
"Five gold coins?" Wang Yu was stunned. "You're selling me for ten gold coins?"
"Not at all!" Hermit laughed. "A thousand!"
"F * ck!" Wang Yu took out a big money pouch and said, "I'll pay two thousand gold coins for the quest to be completed immediately!"
"This … I'm afraid not!" Hermit shook his head.
"Why can she do it but I can't?" Wang Yu was furious.
"Because she's pretty!" Hermit smiled wretchedly.
"Pretty?"
Wang Yu sized up Meng Xi and said, "Very average. I'm pretty handsome too."
"What did you say?" When Meng Xi heard the word 'average', her eyes narrowed. The alley was instantly filled with murderous intent.
"This isn't a matter of being handsome or not." Hermit said, "This is a matter of Charm! This lady's hidden Charm is full points. As NPCs, we have to give her face. "
"There's such a thing?"
Hearing Hermit's words, Wang Yu was dumbfounded. After playing games for so long, this was the first time Wang Yu had heard of such a setting.
"Of course!" Hermit said, "Haven't you noticed? Some people's class advancement quests and awakening quests are very simple, but some people's quests are extremely difficult. "
"There seems to be such a thing. Then why does a certain person sound so familiar …"
Thinking of this, Wang Yu's old face darkened. He stared at Hermit and said, "What's my Charm?"
"Haha!" Hermit laughed and said, "Only 1."
Wang Yu was speechless.
Damn it, no wonder the quests and NPCs he encountered were all so troublesome, while others had it easy. So this was the problem.
Seeing Wang Yu's expression, Hermit comforted him, "Low Charm is actually nothing. Other than being often tricked by NPCs, having high difficulty quests, and being easily attacked by monsters in the wild, you're no different from a normal person."
"Alright, stop talking!"
Wang Yu hurriedly told Hermit to shut up and got up to walk out of the alley gloomily.
"Hey hey hey, where are you going?"
Seeing that Wang Yu was about to slip away, Meng Xi hurriedly caught up and said, "I hired you for 1000 gold coins, you have to listen to me."
"1000 gold coins …" Wang Yu touched the 5 gold coins that Hermit had just handed to him. Thinking about the experience and other rewards from the sect quests, he suppressed his anger and said, "Alright, where are we going now?"
"Of course we're going to the Essel Mountains!" Meng Xi said.
"This …" Wang Yu was a little troubled, "A man and a woman alone … Why don't we find a few more people to go with us?"
Wang Yu also knew about the Essel Mountains. It was the boundary between the local server and the European server. It was very far away from Yu Huicheng.
