Chapter 2656: Adventure Team?

~10 min read 1,885 words

Outside the window, it was pitch black, the street was very quiet, and all things fell into sleep, except for some strange things. The night was their camouflage for hunting, especially this moonless night. In contrast, hunters were also more accustomed to acting at night.

The lights in the Shelter were bright. Two men and one woman were staring at each other. These three were all Qiyuezhe, two of whom were a couple, from the Holy Domain Paradise. At this time, they were embracing each other, exchanging glances, and spreading dog food to their heart's content. The single brother on the side was almost vomiting.

This single brother called himself Lance, and his background was not small. He was a member of a certain adventure team in Apocalypse Paradise.

This was actually nothing. The key was that the large adventure team named "Holy Temple" actually had 165 Qiyuezhe entering this world, and it was the leader who brought a group of backbone members. They all chose the Watcher Guild faction.

Su Xiao didn't expect such a good thing. He could now issue quests to Qiyuezhe to obtain World Reputation.

Su Xiao had 31 unsolved transcendent events in his hand. Assuming the Holy Temple adventure team had a 5-person team, and each team was responsible for one transcendent event, there were still 10 people left.

In addition to the accumulated transcendent event files, Su Xiao could also issue another type of quest at this time, which was to let Qiyuezhe represent the Watcher Guild to recover the relics of deceased hunters in various cities of the Rhine Kingdom.

As for the quest difficulty, it depended on fate. If one happened to encounter Hao Gui who was also seizing relics, the quest difficulty would instantly explode.

"Mr. Kuku Lin, do you really believe that this person can wipe out the Flesh Auction?"

The female Qiyuezhe among the couple spoke. Her aura was like a poisonous snake, and those light red eyes were sizing up Lance, as if choosing the position where the "poison tooth" was suitable to pierce.

"Madam, you cannot judge people by their appearance."

Lance pushed the narrow-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose slightly. His demeanor was scholarly, a look of a good man not fighting with a woman, definitely not that he couldn't beat her.

Lance came to the Shelter this time under the order of the leader. They were exploring the situation of this Shelter to see if it was suitable for accepting commissions. They really couldn't mix in the Watcher Guild. Those high-level officials were one more difficult to deal with than the other. Just a preliminary contact, they judged that the members of the Holy Temple adventure team had obvious purposes, which was different from normal hunters.

Those old guys had a clear attitude. They would not use hunters, but in the face of these Qiyuezhe who came from unknown sources and had strong purposes, those old guys adopted a double utilization relationship. They could be used, but they would also use the Holy Temple adventure team to the fullest.

At the beginning, the members of the Holy Temple didn't care much, but after participating in a special-class transcendent event outside the wilderness, they were empty. Those old guys first put the benefits there, and then told them in a near-explicit attitude that you were elite cannon fodder. If you go, you can get several times the remuneration of ordinary hunters. If you don't go, then leave the headquarters of the Watcher Guild.

Therefore, Lance came this time to test the waters. As a Qiyuezhe who had mixed in the headquarters of the Watcher Guild, Lance felt very confident after arriving at the Shelter.

"High returns, commissions will also be more dangerous."

Su Xiao sat behind the wooden table, reviewing a secret document that had just been sent. It marked the locations of many hunter relics. Each relic location could issue a quest, with quest difficulty ranging from Lv. 5 to Lv. 70. Lv. 5 was running errands, encountering no Dark Demons at all. As for Lv. 70, that was encountering Hao Gui. After a head-on battle, the quest difficulty might be topped to higher.

With the combat power of ordinary Seventh Tier Qiyuezhe, after encountering Hao Gui, it was basically cool.

"Mr. Kuku Lin, do you really think we are afraid of death?"

The beauty snake among the couple pressed her hands on the wooden table, leaned forward, and looked at Su Xiao at close range. On her face was a faint charming smile, and all Charm-type abilities were fully activated, which was about to reach the effect of mental confusion.

"Since that's the case, I have a commission that is more suitable for you. The reward is several times higher, and it is also difficult to complete."

Su Xiao took out a basic format document, wrote a few paragraphs on it, then lit the candle on the table, used the candle to burn soft a seal, and stamped the seal representing the Watcher Guild on the document.

"It's interesting to have challenges. I hope the reward is enough. Do you say so, Mr. Kuku Lin?"

The beauty snake's hand pressed on the document. After picking up the document, soon, the charming smile on her face disappeared a bit. She received a quest with a difficulty of Lv. 5 to Lv. 70. This quest was called "Relic Recovery."

"This is, what ghost commis... commission."

The word quest almost blurted out. The beauty snake's gaze began to be unkind. After weighing the pros and cons, she and her partner walked out of the Shelter, which was considered accepting the commission.

"You really have a good temper, and these two people are not credible. That woman is affecting your judgment."

Bottled hunter · Tiffany spoke. She was placed on the wooden table at this time. Hearing her voice, Apocalypse Paradise Qiyuezhe · Lance was shocked. As a perception type, he didn't even find that there was someone in the glass bottle one meter away from him.

"They went to the neighboring Mans City to recover relics."

Hearing Su Xiao's words, Tiffany's aura shrank, and she said: "I... didn't offend you recently, hmm, didn't offend you."

Just in an instant, Tiffany thought of many things. "Mans City" was adjacent to "Sodo City" where they were at this time. This was not dangerous. The point was that Hao Gui appeared in "Sodo City" last night and fought with Su Xiao. The possibility of the other party continuing to appear in "Sodo City" was very low.

In other words, Hao Gui's next target was likely the neighboring "Mans City," going there to seize relics, and the beauty snake and the cold-smiling man were likely to bump into Hao Gui face to face. The beauty snake said "It's interesting to have challenges" herself. This challenge should be able to satisfy her.

"You are called, Lance?"

"That's right."

"I have many accumulated commissions in my hand. I don't care who completes these commissions, I only look at the results."

"Understood. I hope we cooperate happily."

Lance got the answer he was satisfied with and turned to walk out of the Shelter, preparing to tell their leader this good news.

Su Xiao glanced at the time. It was almost 1:00 AM. He prepared to go upstairs to sleep. In this world, he was not very busy. If there were no more clues about the main quest, he would be in contact with more Qiyuezhe from other paradises. He felt that this was the bulk of World Reputation income.

Assuming that the 31 commissions in his hand were all completed, he could obtain at least 190 points of World Reputation, which was much higher than the income of solving commissions himself. After all, most commissions were time-consuming.

Su Xiao had just finished checking the quest prompts when a team email appeared. It was sent by Benny.

After checking the email, Su Xiao was very surprised, because Benny actually entered the Dark Prison. Often searching for treasures alone, the improvement for Benny in all aspects was not small. Not long after entering this world, it reached the Dark Prison. This was good news.

The content sent by Benny was not much. First, it was the method of entering the Dark Prison. First, find a place where a Dark Prison crack had opened before. It must be within 10 hours after the Dark Prison crack disappeared. Engrave a hexagonal array on this place, and through a living Dark Demon as a medium, can the Dark Prison crack be opened again, so as to enter the Dark Prison.

In addition to this information, Benny also sent two photos. The first was a dim and dark sky, with a vortex slowly rotating.

The second photo was of the ground. On the withered yellow and red ground, a large pile of hunter plates were thrown on the ground. These hunter plates were covered with rust, as if they had been corroded by something, and some were even rusted with holes.

These were all situations in the Dark Prison. Compared to these two photos, Su Xiao wanted to know more about the extent to which the Dark Prison and this world had merged. He urgently needed the 【Exemption Badge】 rewarded by the main quest, because he felt that his 0.2 points, no, 0.1 points of Charm attribute, could not hold on for long. When he woke up this morning, the Charm attribute was in this situation.

Tap, tap, tap~

Footsteps came from outside the door. Hearing these footsteps, Su Xiao took out Zhan Long Shan and placed the sheathed Zhan Long Shan in front of him.

Ding-a-ling~

The door was pushed open, and a cold air drifted in. It was a hunter in a black windbreaker wearing a crow mask. Although the attire was similar to the old hunter before, the aura of the person who came this time was a bit weaker.

"Hello, I'm here to handle the matter of the ancient castle."

The person who came stopped a few meters in front of the wooden table, and the voice was neutral.

"Deadline five hours, bring back his hunter plate."

Su Xiao took out a prepared document from the drawer. The hunter who came this time was named Alexia, who came to help that old hunter get relief. That old hunter named her to come, and it should be that he wanted to pass something on to her.

Hunter · Alexia didn't say much, took the document and left quickly, heading straight for the ancient castle outside the city. Her mentor was waiting for her there.

An hour later, on the wilderness outside Sodo City, an ancient castle stood abruptly among the weeds. The windows and doors had long since rotted into slag. Firelight shone from the ancient castle, and shadows swayed like ghosts.

Steady footsteps came from the ancient castle. Following the firelight, a figure walked in the ancient castle. It was Alexia. Soon, she saw a thin figure sitting in front of the fire.

Near this figure, all kinds of weapons were placed. These weapons were a bit black, which was caused by being stained with the blood of Dark Demons all year round. Decades of hunting made the bloodstains on the weapons long since unwashable.
