The next day after the players left, Lord Bayi came again. Although Jiang Fei knew his purpose, he still let him in.
"Boss, we meet again," Lord Bayi said with an embarrassed smile. Lord Bayi smiled awkwardly. In fact, he didn't want to come, but the pressure from the "players" was too great, so he had no choice but to come.
"What? What brings you here today, Lord Bayi? "Jiang Fei deliberately smiled.
"Hehe, I have no choice. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bothered you," Lord Bayi said helplessly.
"What? Am I so unpopular, Lord Bayi? "Jiang Fei's face darkened. He was bored, so he deliberately teased the old man.
"No, no, no …" Lord Bayi was so scared that he kept waving his hands.
"Then what do you mean?" Jiang Fei asked with a gloomy face.
"I … I didn't want to disturb you …" Lord Bayi stammered.
"If you are afraid of disturbing me, then why are you here?" Jiang Fei said, glaring at him. From the villagers, Jiang Fei knew how evil Lord Bayi was. Now, he was helping the villagers by scaring the old man.
"This … this …" Lord Bayi was so shocked by Jiang Fei's sudden outburst that he was speechless. After a long time, he finally recovered and said, "I was entrusted by someone to do this. Please forgive me if I have disturbed the first head."
"Huh? Asked by someone? "Jiang Fei deliberately raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Yes! Yes! Those people from yesterday. They asked me to come and see if you deliberately don't want to give up the artifact. " Lord Bayi had completely sold out the "players". He had never wanted to face a fugitive like Jiang Fei in the first place. Now that the "players" had forced him to come here, of course, he would not help the "players" in their lie.
"That artifact!" Jiang Fei pretended to have a sudden realization and said, "I don't have any use for that thing, but looking at how nervous they are, it must be a treasure. So, that's the price I'm offering. If you want the Celestial Equipment, you have to do as I say!"
"Good! Good! I'll pass on your message! "Master Bayi nodded immediately. He did not want to stay here for even a second longer.
"Yes! Get lost. " Jiang Fei waved his hand, and Lord Bayi immediately trotted out of the Old Dragon Cave as if he had been pardoned.
…
After Master Bayi left, Jiang Fei returned to the backyard and gathered with the girls to discuss what to do next.
"When Master Bayi returns, the players will probably ask for help from their companions," Nina said.
"Yes, that should be the case." Jiang Fei nodded.
"Doesn't that mean there's going to be a huge battle?" Isabella asked excitedly.
"When the main forces of the 'players' arrive, it is very likely that there will be a tough battle. After all, to the 'players', as long as they can solve the problem with their fists, they will definitely not bother to complete the 'Quest'," Jiang Fei said.
"Great! I'm going to fight this time! " Isabella shouted. Jiang Fei and the others had already made a plan. In order not to expose their identities in front of the 'players', Jiang Fei would not bring all the girls with him every time he met the 'players'. After all, such a group would be too conspicuous.
"Yes! Judging from the strength of the 'players' before, their Strength should be around five to ten million in this quest. Only a few 'players' have a Strength of about fifteen million. So this time, I'll bring Isabella and Garona, "Jiang Fei said after thinking for a while.
At this time, the girls who could fight the most were undoubtedly Isabella and the others who had obtained the Energy Core. Other than them, there was also Aurelia who had the strength of a Starry Overlord. At this time, Aurelia was not by Jiang Fei's side. Instead, she stayed on Turandot. So, in a situation where Jiang Fei did not want to reveal too much of his strength, bringing Garona with her 8.6 million Combat Power was the best choice.
Just as Jiang Fei was deciding who to fight, Ilse and the other players were also contacting Eammon.
This time, after Master Bayi returned, he brought Jiang Fei's words to Ilse. Hearing Jiang Fei's words, Ilse was even more certain that this group of trash teammates around her had leaked the secret.
In Ilse's opinion, the NPC bandit leader must have known that the Celestial Artifact was very important to them. That was why he dared to ask for such an exorbitant price. However, the problem now was that they, the 'players', could not defeat the boss at all. It was impossible for them to snatch the Celestial Artifact back. So, they had to either follow the quest given by the boss or ask Eammon for help.
"Ilse, what do we do now? Ask for help? "asked one of the 'players'. At this time, Ilse had become their backbone.
"Nonsense, we can't defeat the boss, and the quest is not something that the few of us can complete. How can we not tell Eammon now?" Ilse rolled her eyes at these people, and her resentment toward them grew to the extreme. If it weren't for the fact that these guys indulged in sensual pleasures all day long and talked nonsense with women in bed, things wouldn't have gotten to this point.
"But if we ask for help from Eammon, will our bounty be deducted?" asked one of the 'players'.
"Hmph! I did not say anything about asking for help! I am just informing Eammon that we have triggered another hidden side quest! " Ilse sneered. As a veteran professional player, of course, she knew what to say to Eammon to avoid punishment. She might even be able to get an extra bounty.
Although this was a reward dungeon that Eammon had bought, and the final reward of the dungeon had already been shown in advance, the hidden side quest could trigger an additional reward. This reward might even be better than the official reward of the dungeon. So, as long as Ilse said that, not only would Eammon not punish them for losing the Celestial Artifact, he would even excitedly come to help.
…
"What? A hidden quest? "Just as Ilse told Eammon about the situation, an excited shout came from the other side.
"Yes, but the quest is very difficult. I suggest that we defeat the boss and give up on the quest!" Said Ilse. Her goal was to call Eammon and the others over, then kill Jiang Fei and take back the Celestial Artifact. As for the hidden quest, it was nothing more than an excuse she came up with to keep the bounty.
If Eammon and the others knew that they had completed such a difficult quest to help Jiang Fei unify Planet Kehar, but in the end, they only got the Celestial Artifact back, he might really die of anger.
