Thinking of this, Wang Yu asked the lone wanderer, "Bro, do you want to fall to your death or be bitten to death by the monsters?"
"I don't want to …" The lone wanderer answered honestly.
"Then I'm sorry!" As Wang Yu spoke, he punched the lone wanderer's head. The lone wanderer was smashed into white light, and the quest dagger fell to the ground.
The lone wanderer blinked and appeared at the resurrection point. After three seconds of confusion, the lone wanderer flew into a rage. "F * ck, why did this b * stard kill me?"
At this moment, the lone wanderer received a message from Wang Yu. "Wait for me at the resurrection point."
After killing the lone Jianghu man, the bird monsters chasing after Wang Yu had already blocked the entire narrow mountain road. The sky was also densely packed with them.
Wang Yu glanced at the bird monsters and pounced forward, jumping off the cliff.
This cliff was the canyon with the drawbridge. Looking down, it was impossible to see the bottom. In this kind of terrain, unless it was a mage-type player who had learned flying spells like Featherfall, other classes would basically die if they jumped.
Of course, players like Wang Yu who had teleportation skills could also try, but whether they had the courage and reflexes to do so was another matter.
In fact, this cliff was only ten meters wide. With Wang Yu's ability, jumping to the other side was no problem at all. However, these bird monsters could fly, so jumping to the other side was no different from not jumping at all.
Jumping down was different. These Setting Sun Celestial Eagles and Gobi Blood Eagles had been demonized. Their bodies were much larger than those on the Sunset Plateau at the foot of the mountain. Their wingspans were four to five meters wide.
Birds of prey like eagles needed space to dive. The canyon was only ten meters wide, so they could not even hover. If the System was really shameless enough to give these bird monsters the ability to fly like a helicopter, Wang Yu would have to accept his fate.
Fortunately, no matter how shameless the System was, it was not shameless to this extent. After Wang Yu jumped off the cliff, the bird monsters lost their target. They circled around in the sky for a while before flying back to the top of the mountain.
At this time, Wang Yu, who had fallen down the cliff, received the system notification that the monsters had retreated. Wang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
Dammit! This Quest was simply inhumane. There were so many flying monsters chasing after players. Moreover, the penalty for failure was so severe. Wasn't this just forcing players onto the path of death?
Fortunately, it was Wang Yu who accepted the mission this time. If it were anyone else who accepted this mission, they would probably die.
Even a Mage with the ability to fly would have a hard time jumping off the cliff when surrounded by so many flying monsters. After all, a Mage with the ability to fly with the Featherfall Spell would not only be able to float, but their movement speed was also quite impressive. Spring Soar was a good example of this. When he was being chased, he would not use the ability to fly until he reached the bottom of the wall, as he was afraid of being shot down by the enemy.
The scenery at the bottom of the cliff was horrible. There were bones everywhere.
From the System's notification, Wang Yu knew that this map was called "Boneyard".
Seeing the ground full of bones, Wang Yu was afraid that the System would do something again. Without another word, he turned around and ran out. He only relaxed when he ran to the familiar map of the Sunset Mountains.
Half an hour later, Wang Yu finally returned to Yu Huicheng. The lone wanderer had been waiting for a long time.
"What took you so long? Where's the dagger? "The wanderer asked impatiently.
He was killed for no reason. No one would be happy.
Wang Yu took out the dagger and said, "I had to get rid of those monsters."
"Get rid of those monsters?"
The wanderer was stunned when he heard this.
After a while, the wanderer asked in disbelief, "You said you got rid of those bird monsters? How did you do it? "
At that time, the situation was urgent. The wanderer didn't have time to count how many monsters there were in the sky. However, there were at least a thousand birds that covered the sky.
There were so many bird monsters, and they could fly. Although flying monsters weren't the most powerful, they were always the most difficult to deal with. With thousands of bird monsters chasing him, the wanderer thought that Wang Yu had been killed. Who knew that Wang Yu had survived.
This guy's ability to escape was terrifying.
Wang Yu said truthfully, "I jumped off the cliff. They couldn't fly down …"
"Oh, oh, oh!" The wanderer did remember that Wang Yu had asked him how he wanted to die. It turned out that Wang Yu had already thought of jumping off the cliff.
The wanderer had seen Wang Yu's rock climbing skills and knew that jumping off the cliff would give Wang Yu a higher chance of survival.
Even so, the wanderer still felt that Wang Yu was too strange. He didn't play by the rules. It was as if the System's rules didn't work on him.
"What about the Heart of Darkness? Give it to me too … "The lone traveler looked at Wang Yu in surprise and said.
"Heart of Darkness?" Wang Yu asked. "Didn't you only want the dagger?"
For this Heart of Darkness, Wang Yu was forced to jump off the cliff by the monster. How could he give it to him so easily?
The wanderer said, "The Heart of Darkness is also my quest item."
Wang Yu said, "Our contract quest didn't say anything about the Heart of Darkness. Right, how do you know that thing is called the Heart of Darkness?"
Wang Yu wasn't a fool. If the wanderer didn't say anything about the Heart of Darkness, it would be fine. Once the wanderer mentioned the Heart of Darkness, Wang Yu immediately reacted. This thing was picked up by him, and the name was only shown after he received the quest. The wanderer didn't seem to have received the quest, so how did he know the name of the Heart of Darkness?
Thinking about the wanderer's sudden appearance and his familiarity with the back mountain, Wang Yu suddenly felt that he had been tricked by this brat.
Wang Yu's guess was correct. The wanderer's main goal was the Heart of Darkness.
"Heart of Darkness" was a non-hidden quest that Assassins could learn from Assassin Mentors after reaching Level 25. Due to the complexity of this quest, it was impossible to complete at this stage of the game.
Moreover, the penalty for failing the quest was very high, and the rewards were unknown. So, even an expert Assassin like Beiming Youyu couldn't help but feel powerless.
The first part of the Heart of Darkness quest was to find the Assassin who sealed the Heart of Darkness and break the seal on the dagger. Just this quest alone was enough to stump a lot of people.
The wanderer accidentally bumped into this NPC. After receiving the dagger quest, he found out that this NPC was the quest NPC for the Heart of Darkness.
Actually, when the wanderer first found Wang Yu, he didn't think about the Heart of Darkness. He only wanted Wang Yu to lure away the monster on the drawbridge, and then he could remove the dagger himself. Who would have thought that Wang Yu was so strong, and he was also a solo player? So, the wanderer wanted to obtain the Heart of Darkness.
