Should he accept this quest?
Azure Dragon's mayor would give him a very difficult quest, this was no surprise to him. Because any quest with a "hidden" or "unique" attribute would be especially difficult, and the "hidden unique" attribute would be even more difficult. What Ling Chen didn't expect was that if he failed this quest, he would suffer a punishment … His reputation would drop to 0, his favorability with the mayor would drop, and he wouldn't be able to accept any quests in Azure Dragon City ….
Is there a more inhumane quest punishment than this!! This was simply more terrifying than dropping three levels! If he really failed this quest, this failure punishment would make it difficult for him to move forward in Azure Dragon City. This quest punishment seemed a bit humane … If he didn't accept the quest, then nothing would happen. But once he accepted. The Azure Dragon's mayor will tie the hope of saving his son to him. If he succeeds, then naturally he will thank him profusely. If he fails … and then his son dies, then all of his resentment will be directly focused on Ling Chen, regardless of whether he is the successor of the War God or not. His favorability would drop to the level of disgust. Once this matter was spread, no NPC in Azure Dragon City would be willing to give him a quest ….
Moreover, this quest's difficulty was directly judged as "completely impossible" by the system, and it was accompanied by such a terrible failure punishment. Should he really accept it? Hidden unique quests would indeed be accompanied by generous rewards, but the quest difficulty was also extremely high, and at the same time there would be a cruel death penalty. The Azure Dragon City Guards were at least level 80 and above. Even these kinds of people disappeared when they went to Lonely Spirit Ridge. He was only a level 11 player ….. Anyone would think that he was simply going to die. After dying, it wasn't over. A bunch of frightening punishments would follow.
But … .on the other hand, the more difficult the quest and the more terrible the quest punishment, didn't it mean that after completing the quest, he would be able to obtain even greater rewards?
"Okay, I accept! Within a month, I will bring back Phyllostachys Nigra. "Ling Chen looked up and replied to Azure Dragon's mayor. After answering, the hesitation and apprehension in his heart suddenly disappeared without a trace. The reason why a small number of people could be different from the majority was because they dared to do things that most people didn't have the courage and courage to do. In this world, there was never anything that was "absolutely impossible". Just like when he passed the War God's Trial, wasn't it also an impossible trial! But in the end, he chose and passed.
"Alright!" The Azure Dragon City Master happily nodded: "As expected of someone who can pass the War God's trial. Just this boldness of not fearing difficulties and death is enough to convince people. Although your current strength is very low, I can feel an indescribable sense of trust from you. The road to the Lonely Spirit Ridge is very long. Before you go there, you should go to the city's mount shop to choose a mount. That's right … "The Azure Dragon's City Master took out a magic pen and paper, quickly wrote a few lines of text, then sealed the letter," Take this and give it to the owner of the mount shop. He will give you the best mount in the shop for free. "
"Although I'm anxious, I still suggest that you upgrade your abilities before you go to the Lonely Spirit Ridge. You've inherited the power of the War God, so your speed of leveling should be very fast. The more power he had, the more confidence he had. If you are ready to go to the Lonely Spirit Ridge, then start from the east and head east. If you can't find the way, you can ask the residents along the way. Anyone will know where the Lonely Spirit Ridge is. After all, it is a forbidden place that everyone knows. Young man, I can no longer bear to let countless city guards die. All my hopes are on you. I await your triumphant return … "
… …
"I've accepted a very difficult quest." Holding the [Azure Dragon's City Master's Letter of Introduction], Ling Chen said in a low voice as he walked out of the City Master's Palace. This was undoubtedly the most difficult quest he had ever seen. The quest punishment was also the most cruel. Countless experts of the Forgotten Continent didn't dare to step in. Whoever stepped in would die in the forbidden place. He was just a small player, could he really complete this kind of quest? He was nervous … but in fact, his heart was beating with excitement. He was born to be the type of person that wanted to challenge the more difficult it was.
"Since you've accepted it, then prepare well."
Heading to the item store, he used the large amount of gold that the Zephyr Bird dropped to buy yellow potions and dark blue potions. After thinking about it, he also bought some luxury items … green potions that could instantly recover 800 HP. Finally, he took a map of the Azure Dragon City and walked out of the item store.
Locking onto the location of the mount store on the Azure Dragon City map, Ling Chen ran in a straight line.
The mount shop was not big, and there was only a withered little old man looking after it. Perhaps because business had dwindled, the little old man was sitting there listlessly. When he heard someone enter, his eyelids twitched a little, but he was too lazy to open his eyes.
Ling Chen swept his eyes over, but didn't see anything like mounts. Instead, on the wall behind the little old man, there were clearly marked prices of all kinds of mounts.
Red Date Horse: Level 1 mount, after riding movement speed + 20, no additional abilities, cannot be leveled up. Price: 200 gold coins.
Tall Horse: Level 1 mount, after riding movement speed + 30, no additional abilities, cannot be leveled up. Price: 500 gold coins.
Thousand Mile Horse: Level 2 mount, after riding movement speed + 40, no additional abilities, cannot be leveled up. Price: 2000 gold coins.
Ferghana Horse: Level 2 mount, after riding movement speed + 50, no additional abilities, cannot be leveled up. Price: 5000 gold coins.
Cloud-treading Colt: Level 3 mount, after riding movement speed + 60, no additional abilities, cannot be leveled up. Price: 20000 gold coins.
The mount store only sold these five kinds of horses. Following the increase in movement speed, the price also rose at a shocking rate. Finally, that Cloud-treading Colt that could increase movement speed by 60 actually sold for 20000 gold coins! Right now, the currency exchange hasn't opened yet, this was a sky-high price that no one could afford. However, these prices also directly reflected the importance of movement speed in the game world. No matter what class, movement speed was an extremely important attribute, no one ever doubted it. Thus, no matter what equipment, as long as it added movement speed, it would be the best of the best.
"Boss, get me a horse." Ling Chen took a few steps forward, and took out the recommendation letter from the Azure Dragon's mayor.
Hearing Ling Chen's voice, the old man opened his eyes a little, and saw the letter in Ling Chen's hand. His eyes opened immediately, and looked at Ling Chen for a while, before carefully taking the letter. After opening it, he quickly read it twice, then sat up straight, and said seriously, "Since it's the mayor's wish, then, I'll temporarily lend you a horse." After saying that, he waved his hand, and a white light fell on Ling Chen's body.
"Ding … You've obtained the mount 'Cloud-treading Colt', now stored in your mount space."
F * ck! Cloud-treading Colt!! A whole twenty thousand gold coins worth of Cloud-treading Colt!!
In the face of such a huge gift, Ling Chen couldn't help but feel excited, but his excitement only lasted for two seconds, and was immediately extinguished by a notification.
"Ding … You've obtained the Cloud-treading Colt, temporarily borrowed from the mount shop. If you complete the quest 'Find Phyllostachys Nigra', you don't need to return it. If you don't complete the quest 'Find Phyllostachys Nigra', you need to return the Cloud-treading Colt after one month. If you can't return it due to Cloud-treading Colt's death, all the money you have will be gradually deducted, until the twenty thousand gold coins are deducted. "
Ling Chen: "I!!!! @ # ¥% … … "
It's just borrowing!!
Can you not be so stingy!
Ling Chen grinned, and didn't say anything else, and directly left the mount shop. He looked at the time. He picked up the communication device, and called Ling Shui Ruo, who was far away in Novice Village 49554.
"Ruo Ruo, where are you now?"
"I'm fighting small monsters and doing a quest. Oh right, big brother, there are two high-level sisters who said they want to help me level up. Both of them look very gentle, and they even helped me chase away a few boys who wanted to approach me. Should I agree? "
If there was a man who wanted to approach Ling Shui Ruo, Ling Chen would definitely not agree, and Ling Shui Ruo herself would also resist, because she knew her own charm. But females … Why would two high-level females take the initiative to approach a young girl who had just entered the game? Could it be …
"What are their names?" Ling Chen asked.
"Their names, hmm … One is called Demon Shadow, and the other is called Qian Mo."
Demon Shadow and Qian Mo … So that's it. Ling Chen's expression softened, and he said with a smile, "They must think that you're very cute, and that's why they took the initiative to bring you along. Then agree to them. If they take you along, you'll definitely level up much faster. "
"Mm! Then I'll agree. "
With those two people, Ling Chen's worry for Shui Ruo had lessened a lot. After ending the call, Ling Chen summoned the Cloud-treading Colt, and with a jump, his movement speed increased by a lot. Riding the Cloud-treading Colt, he went straight to the East Gate of Azure Dragon City. A month's time wasn't long, but it wasn't short either. Like the Azure Dragon City Leader said, before going to Lonely Spirit Ridge, the most important thing was to level up. At the very least, he had to level up to the point where he could equip the Zephyr Blade. After equipping the Zephyr Blade, his strength increased by a lot.
Current Skill Points: 2180.
Killing the three Lord BOSSes and a Fierce Zephyr Bird in the Trial Grounds of the Battle Soul gave him a large amount of SP. These SP were enough to raise the basic skills of the Battle Soul Profession by several levels. He opened his own skill panel and after pondering for a while, he chose to put 1600 of the points into the [Item Manipulation Technique].
"Ding … your Item Manipulation Secrets has been successfully raised to level 3."
[Item Manipulation Secrets]: Current Level: LV 3, Highest Level: LV 10. Required Skill Points to Upgrade to LV 4: 2400. Ancient Battle Arts, after practicing, equipment that exceeds your current level can be worn. Effect: Ignores any equipment's level requirement by 3 levels.
The Item Manipulation Secrets had been upgraded to level 3, so as long as he went up one level, he could wear level 15 equipment – including the Zephyr Blade.
With the remaining 580 Skill Points, Ling Chen put them into the [Four Corners Star Formation]. With a flash of light, the [Four Corners Star Formation] rose to level 3.
[Four Corners Star Formation]: Current Level: LV 3, Highest Level: LV 10, Required Skill Points to Upgrade to LV 4: 800. Using the power of the Warrior Spirit to spread out in all directions, instantly forming a destructive formation in a 10 meter radius. The berserk power of the Warrior Spirit will cause devastating damage to all targets in the formation. Damage is equal to 400% of normal attacks, critical hit rate + 10%, 100% chance of triggering strong knockback, MP Consumption: 100, Cooldown Time: 60 seconds.
The upgraded [Four Corners Star Formation]'s power and critical hit rate increased again, and the Skill Points were only left with the last 80 points. After distributing the Skill Points, Ling Chen sped up and went straight to the East Gate.
