After these notifications were finished, the realm finally gave out a notification that everyone had been waiting for.
[I must remind you, we don't advocate fleeing in the midst of battle. Therefore, you must pay a price of 3 points in your highest attribute and 5 points in achievement points as the cost of teleporting back to the safe zone. Since you've already completed the first side mission, you can bring back all the benefits you've obtained in this world to the nightmare realm.]
After this notification, a dozen or so contestants instantly vanished from the remaining 70 plus contestants. These people had definitely earned a lot and weren't willing to stay for a moment longer. To be able to make such a decision at this moment, they obviously possessed great self-control. Faced with a greater opportunity and bountiful reward, they chose to give up.
Following closely, another booming voice boomed out.
[Warning! Warning! You have already obtained the qualifications to accept the Golden Side Mission. This mission cannot be shared! Extremely difficult!]
[Warning! Warning! The Golden Side Mission has appeared. You must pay 3 achievement points and 30000 utility points to purchase this mission!]
[Warning! Warning! This Golden Side Mission is unique. No matter how many contestants accept this mission, only one can complete this mission!]
[Details: You only have 1 minute to consider if you wish to accept this mission. No waiting after that!]
Upon seeing this notification, the expectant Sheyan's heart couldn't help but thump wildly. Such harsh conditions to accept this mission, such a unique mission reward! Reef and Mogensha were similarly astonished.
Although they had been in the realm for much longer than Sheyan, but such a Golden Side Mission, no matter if it was accepting or completing the mission reward, this was truly their first time witnessing such a thing!!!
At this moment, Sheyan immediately turned to look at his two party members. Reef and Mogensha simultaneously noticed an indescribable fanatical flame in Sheyan's eyes! Reef took a deep breath and nodded. He clenched his fist and waved it towards Sheyan, expressing his support. Brother Black lit up a cigar and gave a thumbs up.
After paying 3 achievement points and 30000 utility points, Sheyan finally received this valiant mission. Needless to say, just its purchasing price alone was worthy of the word 'gold'.
[You have received a C-rank Golden Side Mission: Cherokee's Sacrifice.]
"Mission Deadline: None. However, after returning to the space, if this mission is not completed, it will be considered a failure. "
[Mission details: Kill Chieftain Cherokee, dig out his heart and offer it as a sacrifice.]
Then … there was no then, there was nothing!!! Eunuch????? Sheyan was momentarily stunned. This Golden Side Mission was simply too excessive. Three sentences! He was dismissed with just three sentences. There were no hints, no warnings, nothing at all. Therefore, there were two major issues that Sheyan had to face.
Firstly, he had to understand what kind of creature Chieftain Cherokee was. Based on the literal meaning, he should be a Na'vi clan leader. However, he definitely couldn't exclude the possibility of him being a ferocious beast or a perverted pterosaur.
Secondly, the difficulty of this mission was undoubtedly immense. From the simple introduction, one could imagine multiple difficulties. For example, he had to go through untold hardships to slay Chieftain Cherokee, before continuing with the sacrificial ritual. For example, the sacrificial ritual required the blood of a tier-6 Thanator, or he had to invite the shaman Mo`at of the Omaticaya Na'vi clan (i.e., the mother-in-law of the main character) to chant some incantations etc …..
Therefore, what Sheyan urgently needed now was information. Massive amounts of information! Naturally, such information could only be found in Hell's Gate.
More crucially, even if he disregarded the Golden Side Mission, Sheyan still had two urgent matters to attend to.
Within that dense forest, although Lille and Uzel harbored malicious intentions, the crucial factor that spurred them into action, was still that strangely buried Tyrannosaurus Wyvern skull. Without a doubt, there was a tremendous secret and benefit hidden within. This could only be unraveled after entering Hell's Gate.
Secondly, Sheyan still possessed a crucial special item – Chris Redfield's lucky bracelet. This item required the blood of the main character to unlock.
At this moment, the avatar body of the main character, Jack Sully, should've already begun to be cultivated ….. yes, Sheyan was currently drooling over this main character body that was still in the cultivation tank, but had yet to possess a soul.
One could imagine, at least 60% of Hell's Gate's security forces would be deployed to deal with the invasion of those terrifying creatures from the outside world. The remaining 35% would be deployed to guard the expensive high purity pandora crystals warehouse. This was without a doubt. Anything worth over 20 million USD/kg would have sufficient reason to do so. Therefore, the security of the laboratory would naturally be lax. Very obviously, this was the fastest and most convenient method to obtain the blood of the main character.
Therefore, in the final analysis, Sheyan had to race against time to reach Hell's Gate as soon as possible. Waiting here blankly for 8 hours wasn't something any rational person would do. Therefore, Sheyan really wanted to utilize the arachnid Overlord to fly, but he quickly dispelled this notion.
Firstly, doing so would attract the attention of others. Sheyan currently didn't wish for others to associate him with the arachnid race. Secondly, the Host was fundamentally a type of flying creature, and was completely defenseless. Who knew if those ferocious Mountain Banshees or Great Leonopteryx might want to taste something new for a change of taste. Once those uncles were provoked, it would be easy to invite them in, but difficult to send them away.
Yet at this moment, Zi took the initiative to find Hell's Gate. Accurately speaking, she sought out Reef, and bluntly stated that the Illume-union had grasped the coordinates of Hell's Gate. If they were willing to pay 10,000 utility points, they would continue to work together after arriving at Hell's Gate.
Under Sheyan's incitement, Reef straightforwardly agreed. Then, he explained, "Our alchemists are currently lacking in medicines. Due to the rising prices of various raw materials, inflation and the economic crisis, we have no choice but to charge a fee … ….."
Reef's vile actions were obviously targeted, and instantly caused Zi's expression to turn displeased. Yet despite her dissatisfaction, she couldn't just say that they didn't need your medicines.
As the leader of a party, she naturally had to be responsible for her party members, and do her best to ensure their survival. Hence, the additional 6 points of basic attributes in battle was extremely precious. If she could fight for it, she would definitely fight for it … … .in the end, like this, Sheyan and the rest actually earned 5-6 thousand utility points instead.
Facing such a passive situation, Zi truly had an impulse to grab her slippers and beat up a cockroach. Gritting her teeth in anger, she snorted coldly and turned to leave. Fortunately, Archeaphill was still able to hold his ground, and even acted as a lubricant in the middle. He beckoned Sheyan and the rest to follow him.
Although the remaining members of the Illume-union were all arrogant individuals, the prowess of Sheyan and the rest spoke for themselves. Hence, they enthusiastically accepted them. Everyone knew that arriving at Hell's Gate eight hours in advance meant that they would receive the follow-up Side Mission eight hours in advance. Moreover, how could Hell's Gate possibly possess massive amounts of side missions?
Actually, these 8 hours seemed rather nonsensical, but it wasn't due to the realm's arrangements being blank. Instead, it was due to the usual beast tide mission flow, or perhaps the Growth-Hunter mission flow, where the defenders would experience an exceedingly arduous and bitter battle. These 8 hours were reserved for them to recover their stamina, heal their broken limbs etc. Yet unexpectedly, the contestants from both sides actually reached a compromise … ….
As the saying goes, one step ahead, one step ahead. What's more, it was an entire 8 hours! Waiting here for a shuttle to pick them up, perhaps by the time they arrived at Hell's Gate, the others would have already completed several steps of the follow-up side mission. Hence, under Zi's purposeful command, most of the remaining contestants wished to set off with the party. Archeaphill solemnly vowed that they would arrive at Hell's Gate in 2 hours.
Regarding this matter, the Illume-union charged every contestant 1000 utility points, earning them a substantial sum. Finally, Zi's expression turned slightly better. Needless to say, they seized the time and set off.
The Illume-union was indeed rich and overbearing. They actually managed to procure 3 'AMP Suit' armors, carrying firearms in front to pave the way. Behind them, there were dozens of individuals of varying sizes. Under normal circumstances, even if they encountered a jungle overlord like the Thanator, they could easily slay it. As long as they didn't encounter a large scale Na'vi tribe, they could probably barge their way through.
Along the way, Sheyan and Yuan Zhan conversed rather well. Sheyan's position in the party was to provide everyone with a buff when a battle broke out. As for a summoner like Yuan Zhan, it was impossible for him to rush to the frontlines and break through enemy lines. Sheyan then talked about his previous encounters with Phelps, Fanu and other summoners; thus, he found a common topic with Yuan Zhan. (To be continued.
