Masia smiled and nodded. Then, the scene changed for Wang Yu and Meng Lei, and they were brought to the Trial Grounds.
System Notification: You have entered Masia's Trial Grounds. You will receive the final reward after passing the three trials. If you fail, all Trial Players will lose the right to receive the Exclusive Mount Quest.
"All Trial Players, that doesn't include me, right …" Exquisite Dream asked Masia as she looked at the shared quest.
Masia smiled and said, "That includes you."
"Shameless Old Cow, I'm going to kill you! Why are you trying to harm me?!" After three seconds of silence, Exquisite Dream pounced on Wang Yu, looking as if she was going to skin Wang Yu alive.
Exquisite Dream was only here to help. Who knew that the penalty for failing the quest would be so severe?
Exclusive Mounts had high speed, attack, and defense bonuses. Exquisite Dream was an Archer that focused on Intelligence, but had low attack and slow movement speed. She had always wanted to get a Exclusive Mount one day, but now that Wang Yu's quest had shattered Exquisite Dream's last hope, how could she not be anxious?
"Aiya …" Wang Yu dodged while pointing at Masia and said, "I don't know either. He tricked you."
Masia still had a smile on her face, "You didn't ask me."
Wang Yu and Exquisite Dream were speechless.
"Don't be so pessimistic," Masia said, "If you complete the quest, you will also be rewarded."
It would have been better if Masia didn't say this. Once she said this, Exquisite Dream felt even more despair. What if … The NPC's words had already indicated the success rate.
"I'm sorry … I didn't know this would happen." Wang Yu said apologetically. Putting himself in her shoes, Wang Yu's stats were already so abnormal. When he heard that he couldn't learn Qinggong, he couldn't help but think about whether or not to accept the quest. Exquisite Dream, on the other hand, was relying on this in the future …
"What's the point of saying this now? You ruined my life. You will take responsibility, right?" Exquisite Dream asked.
"Forget about taking responsibility. At most, if someone bullies you, I'll help you take revenge." Wang Yu bargained.
Exquisite Dream curled her lips and said, "Alright, alright. Don't talk nonsense. I can tell that you're not sincere. Think about how you're going to complete the quest."
"Eh …" Wang Yu was speechless.
In the end, Exquisite Dream was quite magnanimous. If it was an ordinary person who had been cheated like this, they would have definitely risked their life. Exquisite Dream was just angry for a while, but now she was acting as if nothing had happened. If one were to say that her character was good, then she was broad-minded. But if one were to say that she was heartless, then how could an Archer who put all of her attribute points into intelligence be so excited? Even if she had a heart and lungs, she wouldn't be like this.
Mesia's Trial Quest was divided into three stages: high jump, running, and Boss battle.
Every time a player passed a stage, the system would reward the player with a title. After all three stages were cleared, the three titles would be combined into the "Son of Wind" title.
The main parts of the Hidden Quest were similar to the Normal Quest. The only difference was that there were more obstacles in the stages. Moreover, the final Boss, Mesia, was added as a competitor for the three stages. If Mesia's score was higher than the player's, then even if the player safely cleared the stage, it would still be deemed as a failure.
After reading the trial's introduction, Wang Yu couldn't help but despise the shamelessness of the system.
The first part of the trial was actually very normal. It was just that the final part where Mesia was a competitor was simply too much.
Mesia was a Wind Elf. Competing with him, and even having to surpass him, wasn't this nonsense?
The first stage of the Trial was called "Against the Wind". It was a stage where three people jumped up a mountain. From time to time, there would be obstacles like rocks and wood falling from the mountain. Moreover, in the stage's settings, no matter how high you jumped, once you were hit by an obstacle, you would have to start jumping again. This was the most difficult stage of the Trial.
The Fighter class High Jump was actually a strong point. Moreover, Wang Yu was also very agile. Originally, he was very confident in this stage. However, when he saw Mesia floating in the air, Wang Yu became puzzled.
"How are you going to jump without legs?" Wang Yu asked Mesia. Mesia didn't even have legs, so it was obvious that she couldn't jump.
"I don't know how to jump," Mesia said. "I know how to fly."
"… Is this Trial really for players?" Wang Yu was already numb to the unfair settings of the Quest. When he heard that his opponent was someone who could fly, he didn't reveal too much emotion. Instead, he threw out the doubts in his heart.
In the stage of "Against the Wind", there were more than a hundred platforms up, down, left and right. Just climbing up the platforms would take a lot of effort, and they would also have to deal with the obstacles in the sky. However, the system's opponent was flying …
Flying and jumping, these two concepts were completely different. Wang Yu really suspected that this Quest was deliberately designed by the system to mess with the players.
"Don't be emotional. My strength will be greatly reduced. As long as you think of a way, you can win." Mesia rubbed her palms together and said to the bitter looking Wang Yu and Exquisite Dream, "Moreover, as long as either of you can beat me, it will be your win."
"What's the difference between that and not saying anything?" Wang Yu rolled his eyes at Mesia.
Higher, faster and stronger. These two Quests were related to Agility. Exquisite Dream was a useless Intelligence archer. Was Wang Yu counting on her to run or jump over the Wind Elves?
Mesia smiled but didn't say anything. Exquisite Dream tugged at Wang Yu and said, "I've thought of a countermeasure."
"Countermeasure?" Wang Yu whispered, "What countermeasure?"
"We can do this." Exquisite Dream quietly explained her idea in the party channel.
After listening to Exquisite Dream's idea, Wang Yu rubbed his chin and said, "I couldn't tell that you could actually think of such a good idea."
"Nonsense. Over 30 levels are all added to Intelligence. It's normal for me to be smarter than you." Exquisite Dream proudly said.
Wang Yu hesitated and said, "It's a good idea, but even if you don't want to be shameless, I still want to be …"
"Damn, what are you talking about? The system has always been shameless. If it did, you'd lose." Exquisite Dream looked at Wang Yu with disdain.
Wang Yu thought about it and realized that it was true. The system was already shameless enough to use flying to compete with jumping. It wouldn't hurt him to be shameless for once.
"Yes, that makes sense. We'll do as you say!"
With that, Wang Yu stood up and walked to a place very close to Meisia.
Mesia smiled and asked, "Have you thought of a countermeasure?"
"Have you?"
"Then shall we begin?"
"Alright, let's begin!" Wang Yu confirmed and a countdown appeared on the screen.
When the countdown reached one, Mesia was just about to take off. Wang Yu suddenly asked, "Old Mesia, what level are you now?"
"Same as you, Level 40." Mesia said without hesitation.
"Hehe, then I'm sorry!" As he spoke, Wang Yu reached out to grab Mesia.
PS: Jinshan Poison Tyrant is really funny. It asked me why I wanted to uninstall it. Was I really willing to uninstall it? I don't even know how it got onto my computer. (To be continued.)
