In the end, everyone agreed with Han Family Young Master. Gu Fei's way of completing missions was indeed mixed with some extraordinary feats. For example, the first time he challenged the map, he saw traces of fighting in the environment in the Luminous Village, and this time he read Giordano's old injury from his attacks … These were impossible for any ordinary person. If a normal person wanted to know where Giordano's old injury was, they would have to find another way, but Gu Fei relied on his specialty to take a shortcut.
The group chatted as they continued on their way. Gu Fei greeted and bade farewell to everyone that he knew here.
"Come again when you're free!" The most enthusiastic response was from Number Two, Scissor Hands.
"Goodbye." Strange Pupil's answer was the most ordinary.
"Haha, I'm now in the Top Ten Thieves!" Yan Xiaozhu did not care what he was saying to her. She shared her joy with someone who had sent her a message. Gu Fei smiled. Yan Xiaozhu's rise to the top ten was all thanks to him. This was because Gu Fei had kicked Apple Vinegar out of the top ten Thieves' Leaderboard, giving Yan Xiaozhu a spot.
"O" was Gu Xian's answer, meaning "Oh". He was constantly showing others that he was a lazy person to the bone.
"Mm, I'm preparing to go to Sunset City too. If there's any good business in the future, remember to take care of me!" This was Hundred Lives Strategist, who had followed them to Sunset City. He spoke like a businessman and got into character very quickly.
The journey was boring. Han Family Young Master passed the time by drinking. Sword Demon was definitely someone who could endure loneliness and boredom. Gu Fei practiced her footwork by walking … Therefore, the most boring thing was the Waist Dance. She began to regret not using the Teleportation Scroll, but it was too late. There was no mailbox in the wilderness for people to use. In the end, she could only kill time by chatting with other girls in the guild channel.
"We're almost there!" Finally, the iconic dense forest of Forest Shade City appeared in the sight of the four of them. Then, they saw three familiar-looking guys on the road beside the forest.
Brother You, Unscathed In Battle, and Yutian Shenming were eagerly waiting.
"You're here!" Yutian Shenming was very enthusiastic, as if he had missed everyone very much.
"Hey, the slender pretty girl is here too!" Beautiful women couldn't escape his eyes.
"Well, let's hurry up! Hurry up and form a party. We're going to complete the quest, "Unscathed In Battle said shamelessly, emphasizing the word 'we'.
"I really can't think of any reason for you to be rewarded …" Sword Demon said, "Wushang, you and Yutian haven't even read the diary, right?"
"Who said that?! I heard Brother You read three pages. "Yutian Shenming's face was filled with pride.
"Let's go, take us to the small wooden house," Gu Fei said. The three people had already been added to the party.
Brother You led the way, and soon, the party of seven arrived at an oak forest. Brother You pointed forward, and a lonely small wooden house came into view. Gu Fei stepped forward and gently pushed the door open …
Not long after Gu Fei and the others left Cloud Fog City, the entire Flower Gazing in the Fog guild suddenly rejoiced. Just now, after the new Giordano appeared, he announced to them that they had done very well during this period of time. The castellan thanked them for their contributions and decided to reward them.
"This is? It's done??? "Three Sighs Flowing Maple couldn't believe his ears. He looked at Hongchen Yixiao beside him in surprise, the rookie who had appeared mysteriously. After listening to his instructions, the task that the Flower Gazing in the Fog guild had delayed for several days was completed in one day.
"Of course," Hongchen Yixiao said with a smile, "You can go find the castellan now."
The guild leader, Three Sighs Flowing Maple, who had temporary access to the government office, couldn't wait to follow the new Giordano to meet the castellan of Cloud Fog City. The rewards were also announced at this time. Just like the rewards for completing guild quests, the players who didn't die during the quest received money and experience. More importantly, the guild was directly promoted by one level.
When Three Sighs Flowing Maple walked out of the government office, he was so happy that he couldn't even close his mouth. The haze of the past few days had been swept away, and he didn't hold a grudge against Gu Fei for causing trouble again and again. Instead, he was very interested in the rookie named "Hongchen Yixiao" in front of him. A small character like this knew quite a lot. Where did this person come from?
"Thank you so much!!" After walking out, Flowing Maple Three Sighs immediately thanked Red Dust Smile profusely. His gratitude came from the bottom of his heart.
"It's nothing, I just did what I was supposed to do," Hongchen Yixiao said.
"What you were supposed to do?" The people who heard Hongchen Yixiao's words didn't understand.
"Your quest received damage that shouldn't have happened at the moment. Assassinating Giordano shouldn't have been a quest that current players shouldn't have been able to accept. Even if they did, they wouldn't have the ability to complete it, "Hongchen Yixiao said.
"But someone did accept it and completed it …" Three Sighs Flowing Maple's mind thought of the annoying black mage.
"That's why I said that he's an unreasonable existence," Hongchen Yixiao said.
"You're … GM??" Three Sighs Flowing Maple's reaction wasn't slow, and he suddenly came to a realization.
"No." Hongchen Yixiao shook his head, "I'm just a normal player." He smiled.
Three Sighs Flowing Maple and the others were a bit confused. If he was just a normal player, then what did it have to do with him whether their guild quest was completed or not? Moreover, this person didn't ask for any benefits from the start.
"Alright, congratulations on your guild rising to Rank 7. I'm leaving." Hongchen Yixiao turned his head and prepared to leave.
"Hey, wait!!" Three Sighs Flowing Maple quickly caught up. Although he still didn't know what kind of character this guy was, Three Sighs Flowing Maple was sure that if he absorbed this person into his guild, there would definitely be benefits.
"Guild? Forget it, I'm about to leave Xiayu City, "Hongchen Yixiao said.
"Leave Xiayu City? Where are you going? "Three Sighs Flowing Maple subconsciously asked.
"After assassinating Giordano and receiving the reward, I should be going to Forest Shade City's Oak Forest …" Hongchen Yixiao seemed to be talking to himself.
Forest Shade City, Oak Forest.
The door to the small wooden house was pushed open by Gu Fei, but he was the last to enter. Every one of those guys was more impatient than him. Unscathed In Battle and Yutian Shenming were the first to enter. It clearly had nothing to do with them.
The light in the small wooden house wasn't very bright. Looking at the furnishings, it seemed like a study. There was an NPC sitting behind the desk. When he saw someone rush in, he didn't have much of a reaction. He only raised his head and looked at them. "My name is Gru. What business do you all have?" His opening speech was exactly the same as when Brother You and the others had come looking for him.
Sword Demon glanced at Gu Fei, who was the last to enter. He carried the bag of blood containing Giordano's head and walked up.
Everyone held their breath and stared. What kind of existence would this quest be?
When Gru saw the bag, he finally had a reaction that Brother You and the others hadn't seen before.
"Giordano? Xiayu City's Giordano? "Gru said in surprise.
"That's right," Sword Demon replied.
"You guys did it?" Gru looked at the people in the room.
Unscathed In Battle and Yutian Shenming were the first to get excited. "He said 'you guys'. Does that include us?"
No one paid attention to these two. Sword Demon just continued to answer, "Yes."
"Where's Andrew?" Gru asked.
"Uh, he's dead." Sword Demon's reaction was slightly slower. He hesitated for a moment before remembering that Andrew was the name of the Haze Assassin. Usually, these characters were collectively referred to as bosses. Very few people remembered their names.
"What a pity," Gru said. Hearing the news of the Haze Assassin's death, the NPC's face didn't show any unusual expression. It was as if he had heard something very normal.
After a short silence, Gru continued to say, "Although you guys aren't from the Alliance, since you've completed this quest, then I can give you a chance to join the Alliance. How about it? Think about it! Only by joining the Alliance can you get the reward. "
"Join, join!!!" Hearing the word reward, Unscathed In Battle and Yutian Shenming jumped up.
"Don't rush. Understand the situation first." Brother You persuaded the two of them. Then, they heard Sword Demon ask, "Alliance? What alliance? "
"Assassin Alliance," Gru replied.
"What's that?" Sword Demon asked.
"This is an ancient and mysterious organization that uses absolute punishment to purify all evil in this world. But now, people's ideals have mostly been replaced by material desires. We have to rely on some rewards to support our mission. How about it, young man? Regardless of whether you have ideals or other motives, there's already a door in front of you, "Gru said.
Sword Demon looked back at the others. This kind of background introduction made veteran players feel a sense of déjà vu. Brother You, who had the most information, was the first to conclude, "Could this be … Faction???"
Faction was a concept introduced in some online games. It divided players into different groups by the system to enhance competition and interaction among players. Since the opening of the parallel world, there hadn't been any introduction or publicity about factions. Some players had criticized this, but the officials had remained silent.
"Could this be a faction?"
"Very similar …"
"Join and give it a try?"
"I don't know if we can retreat when the time comes."
"It doesn't matter. Factions are just a type. Strength will be determined by the final players!"
"Then should we all join this Assassin Alliance?"
"I wonder if there are any class restrictions?"
"Can we only be assassins?"
"We'll know after we try …"
After a long series of discussions, many people decided to give it a try. The first to bear the brunt was naturally Sword Demon. "I want to join the Assassin Alliance!" Sword Demon said to Gru.
"Very good! Young man, I hope you can fight for your ideals and not for money. Take it. This will be a symbol of your identity. "Gru waved his arm, and a black light seemed to pierce through Sword Demon's left arm. Sword Demon also felt a sharp pain. He quickly rolled up his sleeve and saw a tattoo of a dagger inserted diagonally on his arm. There was a string of English words on the blade, and the number No. 2 was written on the handle.
