Soon after Dragon Tiger Sect left, night fell!
Eastern Green Gate, Whirlwind Young Li, and Azure Wolf used the Great Wolves to train by the side. No one bothered them for a few hours, and they gained quite a lot from it.
The sky was bright, but no one came to bother them. Regardless of whether it was Dragon Tiger Sect or Heaven Domination Sect, neither of them showed up. This continued until it was past three in the morning. Eastern Gate and the other two trained with high-grade Great Wolves under Happy's protection, and their martial arts levels increased by leaps and bounds. Each of them had two martial arts pushed from the ninth realm to Grandmaster Realm.
Aside from more than one hundred Great Wolves' pelts, claws, and tendons, he also obtained a Golden Wolf Claw that had an incredibly low drop rate. There was an incredibly eye-catching note attached to it. [The sturdiness of this wolf claw is astonishing, and it can be used to refine Emperor Breaking Dragon Fang Sword.]
It wasn't until the next day, when messenger pigeons with white wings appeared outside the battlefield that everyone stopped cultivating.
"Let's go."
He ended the final Great Wolf's sad life and took the letter from the messenger pigeon's leg to read it. He frowned and turned his face around to say to the trio, "Emergency sect quest."
"Us too."
Eastern Green Gate and Azure Wolf were not Murong Clan disciples. When they saw that they had also received a quest from their clan, they could not help but have strange expressions appear on their faces.
"What happened?"
"My mission is to steal the goods. What about you guys?"
Whirlwind Young Li had just finished reading the contents of the letter. "Robbery? Don't tell me they're going to rob me? " When he heard this, he was startled. He raised the piece of paper in his hand and said, "The sect wants me to escort a tribute box out of Gusu City and deliver it to the Eighth Prince's residence in the capital."
Once he finished speaking, he instinctively looked at Happy.
"Eldest Senior Brother?"
Even though he was a little shocked when he learned of Happy's age and his status as a student, he could not change his habit of addressing him.
Of the four people in the area, Happy was the only one who was not surprised by the contents of the letter.
Escort mission!
It was the birthday of the current Emperor!
Under the dragon's might, all the aristocratic families and most of the righteous sects sent their disciples to protect the tributes and head to the capital.
This was the bodyguard mission.
But …
Some people from the evil sects took the opportunity to target this batch of tributes.
Of course …
In addition, rival sects would also secretly send people to target the tributes of the rival sects. As long as they robbed the tributes of the rival sects, not only would they damage the rival sects' reputation, they could also sow discord between the rival sects and the imperial court.
As a disciple of the Qingcheng Sect, Ximen Qing received a mission to plunder the tributes of the enemy sect, the Heavenly Eagle Castle. The reward for plundering the tributes of the enemy sect was even better than successfully protecting the tributes.
Of course, they wouldn't ask a single disciple of a certain sect to take action. Usually, for this kind of quest, the number of players who received the quest would be equal to the number of enemies.
"There's no point in protecting the dart. I might as well continue leveling here."
Whirlwind Young Li cast a glance at the details of the quest, but his interest waned. He suggested that they give up on the quest and continue staying in the place to train. Based on their speed, they should be able to reach Blessed Realm soon, and they could earn money very quickly as well.
Cang Lang and Ximen raised their brows. They could not help but be tempted.
When Happy saw this, he instantly put on a wan smile, and he could not help but analyze the situation for the trio.
"Don't you think it's strange? The four of us received the same sect quest at the same time. If my guess is correct, World of Martial Arts will definitely have a major event or a storyline quest that will be pushed out soon. Are you sure you want to miss out on this grand event for this small gain and loss? "
His words immediately caused the three of them to waver.
"At the very least, I won't give up."
Happy's tone was firm.
"Money can be earned at any moment, and you can train at any place. Don't be blinded by temporary ease and benefits. In truth, even if this event didn't happen, I would have left Gusu City to wander around the world. In the future, you have to be careful in Gusu City."
"Wander around the world?"
"I like it!"
The trio's eyes sparkled.
"Don't look at me. I like to challenge my own limits, and the places I go are very dangerous. It's not suitable for me to bring you there." Happy immediately got rid of the trio's thoughts.
"Oh."
The trio understood once they thought about it.
Happy's strength could not be compared to a normal player in Gate Realm. He was not someone they could compare to.
"Then, should we go back now?"
"Yes." Happy lowered his head and continued picking up the spoils of war. "There are more than one hundred and thirty Great Wolf Pelts. Each of you can take one set, and we'll split the rest equally. Each of you should be able to get around thirty sets. The money needed to make the Great Wolf Pelt Equipment Set will be enough for you to operate for a long time."
"Th-we can't split this."
The trio's expressions changed. The main person who killed the Great Wolves was still Happy. They were just there to be bystanders, and they did not have to pay to train. They were already benefiting a lot, so how could they have to split the spoils of war?
"Enough with the nonsense. Even if you have a lot of money, there's nowhere else you can spend it. Treat this bit of stuff as my investment. You should stay in Gusu City. I don't know when you'll be able to come back, so take care of yourselves."
When they heard Happy's words, the trio instantly stopped talking. They were touched.
They returned to Gusu City!
The city was in a commotion.
Countless players carried all sorts of weapons on their backs and ran about. Once they crawled out of the herb shops, they entered the weapon shops. Almost all the players immediately thought of strengthening their equipment and weapons when they received the quest to protect the tribute, because the rewards for the quest were very great. Aside from the reward of two thousand taels of silver crumbs and three martial art manuals, they also received a relatively high-grade weapon and an innate attribute reward from their sect.
A storm was brewing, and all the players hoped that they could use the chance to stand out in the game!
When Happy and his party returned to the city, they still attracted a lot of attention.
Aside from Dragon Tiger Sect and Heaven Domination Sect, there were also many unfamiliar players.
All of them stared at the Universe Bag hanging by Happy's waist. Their eyes were bloodshot, and they looked like bandits who had their eyes on a cash transport truck.
Once they entered a tailor's shop, a few players who were dressed in extraordinary clothes followed behind them.
In the beginning, Happy did not pay much attention to them.
But when the complete Great Wolf Pelts were handed to the tailor, the temperature of the gazes around him swiftly rose!
"Brother."
One of the people was about to approach Happy, but he was stopped by Azure Wolf. He stared at Happy warily, who had an awkward and nervous expression on his face.
"Who are you?"
"Brother, I-I have something to say to Happy."
Happy was stunned. He turned his head around and sized up the player who approached him. He saw that there were faint beads of sweat on the player's rather honest face. He forced himself to smile, which made him look very comical. He stared at Happy with an eager gaze.
"What do you want from me?"
Even though Happy did not know the person, he still asked out of politeness.
"I … Err, I mean, I'm Ma Liang. I'm a merchant, and I bought a shop over there …" The fat player who spoke in front of Happy looked very nervous, and he wiped off his sweat repeatedly.
Happy's eyes lit up, and he instantly cast Ma Liang a few more glances.
"A merchant?"
There was already a hint of interest in his words. The influence of merchants in the game could be great, but it could also be small. When it came to wealth alone, they could not be ignored.
However, in Happy's memories, Ma Liang was not on the Top Ten Richest Merchants Rank in the future, and he had never appeared on the Rich Who Threw Money Around.
"That's right. I want to do business with you, Eldest Senior Brother Happy."
"Oh?"
Happy dragged out his voice, and a thought appeared in his head. His gaze landed on the Great Wolf Pelt in his hands, and a hint of a smile appeared on his lips.
