System Notification: You've triggered a hidden quest: "Survive". Current quest: The Final Fortress. Accept?
"I …" Wang Yu was about to accept it when Wuji interrupted, "Mr. Quartermaster, can you tell us what the reward for this quest is?"
The first two quests had both rewarded them with experience points. They had come all the way here just to get experience points. This made the people from the Quan Zhen Sect very annoyed. If this quest also rewarded them with experience points, they might as well not do it.
The Quartermaster hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's a Guild Treasure."
"Guild Treasure?" Wuji was shocked. He didn't expect the reward for this hidden quest chain to be this.
Wuji had heard of Guild Treasures during the closed beta. They were also known as Guild Treasures by the players. There were three types.
One was the "Guild Gem" that could forcefully upgrade a guild's level. It appeared in the form of a gem and could be used directly on a Guild Crystal to upgrade a guild's level. It was the most difficult item to obtain, and each Guild Crystal could only be used once. It was usually used to upgrade a guild's level to 5. Forcefully upgrading a guild to 6 levels was beyond valuable.
Another was the "Guild Fortress" that could upgrade a guild's encampment level. This item was similar to equipment. It was divided into ranks and would increase the encampment's defense and area according to the rank. It was said that a Legendary Guild Fortress could upgrade a guild's encampment to a city.
The last one was called "Guild Faith". This item appeared in the form of a landscape. It could be placed in the guild to provide a guild buff to guild members. Although its value wasn't as high as the other two, it was quite useful.
"Alright, I'll accept it." Wuji nodded at Wang Yu after hearing that the final reward was this.
Any one of these three Guild Treasures was priceless. Even if they only obtained the last one, they could make up for the losses from the previous two quests.
System Notification: You've accepted the hidden quest: "Survive". Current quest: The Final Fortress. Description: Help the pursuers kill Master Alchemist "Fitch" and bring back one of Quartermaster George's lost special items.
At the same time they received the quest, a blue dot and a red dot appeared on their map.
The Quartermaster said to the group, "The Dark Faction has already sent people to receive Fitch. You must assist the pursuers and stop him before he returns to the Dark Faction's camp. Otherwise, if two special items reach the Dark Faction's camp at the same time, the battle lines on our side will collapse. We'll be in big trouble then."
After the quartermaster finished speaking, another notification appeared at the bottom of Wang Yu and the others' mission.
Quest failed. Frontline retreat. Current level: 1.
"F * ck your mother!"
Seeing this notification, everyone cursed out loud. This stupid quest actually had a penalty for failing. This stupid game was never quick to level up, and losing levels was a clean cut.
Cursing was one thing, but since they had accepted the mission, it would be considered a failure if they canceled it. Everyone could only brace themselves and complete it.
This was a time-limited mission. The blue dot should be the pursuers, the red dot should be the so-called receiving party, and the green dot should be Quanzhen's group.
At the moment, the red and blue dots were about to move to the center of the map. They did not know whether the receiving party or the pursuers were stronger. However, based on the nature of this mission, the receiving party would definitely be stronger, as they had a Boss to watch over them.
Therefore, the most important thing now was to rush over before the pursuers were wiped out.
Realizing this, everyone followed the route on the map without hesitation and ran in the direction of the two groups.
The frontline sentry post, as the name suggested, was the edge of the battlefield.
Along the way, there were scouts from both sides, as well as walking corpses that had absorbed the Dark Energy and resurrected.
The three types of monsters were enemies, but once the players joined in, they also added Quanzhen's group to the hate list.
Currently, Quanzhen's group was being chased by the "Allied Scouts". These monsters were rather fast and could not shake them off. It was not that the experts of Quanzhen's group could not defeat these monsters, but these monsters belonged to the Light Faction. In the game's settings, killing NPCs and monsters of the same faction would cause them to lose a lot of Honor Points.
Quanzhen's group was extremely frustrated as they were being chased. It would have been fine if they were being chased by the "Corpsedemons" and "Shadow Assassins", but why were they being chased by monsters from the Light Faction as well?
After being chased, they had no choice but to kill a few monsters. Only then did they find out that as this was a ceasefire zone, once they entered this map, there was no distinction between factions. No matter which faction monsters were killed, the Honor Points would not be reduced.
After knowing this setting, everyone had no more worries and killed their way through. When the blue and red dots met, Quanzhen's group was already not far away.
"Do you guys think that after Fitch is killed, we can only get one of the special items?" Wang Yu said while studying the mission.
System Quests often played with words. Hence, when players received a mission, especially a hidden mission from an intelligent NPC, they had to think carefully about the meaning behind it.
Wuji thought for a moment and said, "Most likely so. Isn't there still a pursuer? According to the system's usual mission flow, the pursuer should also get one of the special items. When the time comes, whichever item we get will be our reward."
"Then we have to choose carefully when the time comes," Wang Yu said confidently, "Pick the one that's more valuable."
"If we can get both, how much do you think we should pay?" Mingdu was drooling all over the ground.
Guild treasures were worth as much as a guild encampment. If they could get both, they would be able to earn a lot. Even if it was split among ten people, the value would still be considerable.
Wuji smiled and said, "It's not like there's no other way."
"What way?" The others asked in surprise.
Chun Xiang chuckled and said, "Don't tell me you want to kill the pursuer as well?"
"That's right, Brother Chun. You're indeed ruthless. You take after me." Wuji smiled.
"That, that's against the rules." Wang Yu secretly frowned. No matter what, the pursuers were considered allies. Wang Yu obviously couldn't accept that they had killed their allies.
Wuji said, "How is it against the rules? This is a free zone. There are no factions here. Since the system placed the mission here, there must be a reason. If we really can't do it, we can wait until all the pursuers are killed before taking action."
Killing with a borrowed knife, Wu Ji was indeed an expert at exploiting loopholes in the system. Even though he was shameless and dirty, he was still able to think of a way to get himself out of this mess. From this, it could be seen how sinister he was.
Wang Yu asked this to find a place for his moral values. Although leaving someone in the lurch and defecting at the last minute were quite uncultured, Wang Yu quickly convinced himself that the pursuer was an NPC.
"Alright, let's do that."
