【,
Back at the pharmacy, Upus took the key and revealed a smile on his wretched face.
"Not bad, not bad. I told you that you are very capable …" Upus said with a smile.
Wang Yu thought to herself, This NPC changes her attitude really quickly. Didn't you just say that she is trash …?
"You flatter me. It's what I should do." Li Xue recited her lines step by step.
Upus said, "Next is the last quest. Old Tony's house in the north of the city has a mysterious herb called Polygonum multiflorum. Go and get it for me."
When Wang Yu heard this, he was secretly curious. This Western fantasy game even had Eastern herbs. How interesting.
As soon as Upus finished speaking, Li Xue received a system notification.
System Notification: Hidden quest "Old Apothecary's Wish" final round, "Magical Herb." Grade A. Do you accept?
"Accept!"
System Notification: You have accepted the hidden quest "Old Apothecary's Wish" final round, "Magical Herb." Grade A. Obtained Old Tony's Polygonum multiflorum 0/1.
Notification: This quest is rather special. It is recommended to form a party. There is no limit to the number of people. The quest can be shared. EXP for death during the quest is halved.
When Li Xue saw the notification, she frowned and shared the quest with Wang Yu.
"Brother Yu, this quest is so strange …" After the previous lesson, Li Xue had learned a lot.
"Ah? What's wrong? "Wang Yu asked.
Li Xue said, "The previous quest was also Grade A, but it was so rare that it made one's hair stand on end. This quest is just to get the herb, but it's also Grade A, and it even requires a party."
Wang Yu said, "Look carefully. He asked you to go to Old Tony's house to get the medicine. He didn't ask you to buy it, nor did he ask you to borrow it."
"Then it's robbery?" Li Xue asked.
Wang Yu said flatly, "With how shameless these NPCs are, of course it's robbery. Did he specify in the previous quest that you have to steal the key?"
Li Xue thought for a moment and said, "No, he said to get the key from the Sunset Mountains."
"Isn't that right? These bastards are really cunning!" Wang Yu turned his head and looked at Upus with disdain. Upus continued to smile wretchedly and pretended not to hear.
"Should we look for someone?" Lee Xue asked.
Wang Yu said, "There's no need for that. It's just an A-rank mission. The two of us are enough."
Wang Yu, who had already completed several S-rank missions, was full of confidence in himself.
Lee Xue said, "In the previous round, the quest could only be shared with three people. Howard was already so difficult to deal with. This time, there's no limit to the number of people who can share the quest. Wouldn't the boss be even more powerful?"
Wang Yu thought for a moment and said, "Then there's even less of a need. If Old Tony is a boss like Howard, no matter how many people go, they will just be sending themselves to death."
Independent bosses didn't take the traditional aggro. When the time came, they would target the weak ones. At the current stage of the game, apart from professional tanks, who could withstand a fatal blow from a boss?
Lee Xue nodded and said, "Alright. We'll wait for Ma Li and the others for a while, then we'll go together …"
Wang Yu gave Lee Xue a sidelong glance. "Do you have a grudge against those three?"
Lee Xue blushed and lowered her head. "Alright, alright. It's just us two!"
The three girls' combat strength was average. If they really went together, they would just be cannon fodder. It was better to save the 5 EXP.
Old Tony's house was quite remote. Following the quest's instructions, Wang Yu and Lee Xue went in a big circle before finding the NPC's house at the corner of Yu Huicheng's city.
When the two arrived at Old Tony's house, they saw a group of people blocking the entrance. They all had the same guild emblem on their chests, so they were probably in the same group.
The group of people looked impatient. Some were sitting, some were leaning, and their eyes were wandering. It seemed like they were chatting in the channel.
"This group of people isn't leveling up, but running to the streets for a meeting. It shouldn't cost much to rent the system office, right?" Wang Yu asked Lee Xue.
"It depends on the number of people in the guild. One silver per person. For a big guild like Blood Alliance with 500 people, they get 5 gold a month." Lee Xue said. As a professional player, she was very clear about the prices.
"So much money for 5 gold?" Wang Yu was slightly shocked. He said with lingering fear, "Luckily, our guild doesn't have many people. But we used to go to the tavern."
Five gold coins was equivalent to five thousand dollars. Although the current exchange rate of gold coins had fallen, it was still a far cry from this price.
Lee Xue said honestly, "It might not be a problem of money. Who knows, having a meeting on the streets is part of the guild culture. The guild leader of the game I used to play had a guild leader who liked to have meetings in the leveling area to show off his personality."
"Wouldn't it be terrible if we were surrounded by monsters?"
"Yeah, so many members couldn't stand the leader's perverted hobby and left the guild."
Wang Yu was speechless. There were so many weird people in this world.
Wang Yu and Lee Xue paced back and forth in front of Old Tony's house, attracting the attention of the crowd. At this time, someone walked out from the crowd and arrogantly pointed at the two of them, "Hey, what are you two doing?"
"We're doing a quest. You guys can have your meeting. Don't disturb us!" Wang Yu said with a smile.
When the crowd heard the word "quest", they immediately became alert. The players who were stumbling all stood up straight and stared at the two of them with killing intent.
The leader stared at Wang Yu and fiercely asked, "Are you here to steal the potions?"
"No."
Wang Yu shook his head. In all honesty, the quest description said "Get the potions".
"Oh, that's good."
Hearing that Wang Yu and Lee Xue weren't here to steal the potions, the crowd relaxed. However, they were still cautious and said, "Brother, I don't care what quest you have, but you better not enter this door right now."
"Why?" Wang Yu asked, puzzled.
The leader said, "Because we also received a quest to guard this place and prevent the bandits from stealing Old Tony's potions. So, if you have a quest, it's best to come back after we're done with it."
Lee Xue was shocked and said in the party channel, "Brother Yu, this is bad! This is a two-way quest!"
"Two-way quest? What's that? "Wang Yu asked curiously.
"It's a quest that the system gives two groups of players to fight each other."
Two-way quests were not uncommon in games. In traditional games, there were escort quests, robberies, city defense, and so on.
As the saying went, fighting with others was fun. After getting tired of bullying NPCs, it was time for a change.
However, two-way quests were usually very difficult. After all, no matter how high the AI of an NPC was, it was still a set of programs. Compared to the cunning players, they were far inferior. No matter how strong the boss was, it would still be defeated by the players in the end, right?
Therefore, when players received this kind of two-way quest that did not limit the number of people, it was not only a competition of equipment and PVP skills, but also connections. Under normal circumstances, whoever had more brothers would win.
"F * ck, the system is too shameless," Wang Yu said, speechless.
Lee Xue said worriedly, "If I knew this was a two-way quest, I would have called more people … Brother Yu, we …"
Before Lee Xue could finish, Wang Yu walked over and said to the leader, "Everyone has a quest. You're being too overbearing by not letting others do the quest!"
The leader pointed to the badge on his chest and said, "We are from Sunset Villa. If you don't like it, then hold it in. I think you're quite pleasing to the eye, so I won't embarrass you in front of your girlfriend. Get lost!"
"…" Wang Yu waved his hand and said, "First of all, this girl is not my girlfriend. Second, how can we do the quest?"
The leader laughed arrogantly and said, "It's simple. Kill us all!"
As soon as the leader finished speaking, dozens of people from Sunset Villa walked over and surrounded Wang Yu and Lee Xue.
