185: Chapter 185 Azure Clouds. The Sun Worshipper

Seeing Goutou Luo kicked back to the city, Southern Sky Legacy Sword and his group, who had already rushed to the front, were stunned, but the people from Qingyun laughed.

Wusheng walked up with a smile, "It seems PK isn't allowed in front of this NPC. It looks like you don't understand very well."

"Is this why you got rich overnight? Let me see what's going on."

"This... Holy crap! A million for one quest?!"

[Mysterious Person: Adventurer, I see you have a unique bone structure. Can you do me a favor? As long as you can get me a {Special Skill: Regeneration Gu}, you will earn my friendship and a generous reward.]

[Quest Triggered: Help the Mysterious Person obtain {Special Skill: Regeneration Gu} * 1.]

[Quest Reward: 1,000,000 blue sea coins, 10 points of favor with the Mysterious Person!]

[Tip: This quest can only be completed once. When the first player completes it, the quest will close.]

At this moment, Wusheng stuttered as he called out, "Monkey, come here quickly and see if something is wrong with my eyes?"

Zhi Zun Bao immediately stepped forward, and after accepting the quest, he was also shocked.

"It's definitely an awesome hidden quest, but this Regeneration Gu... it seems to be a second-transfer skill book, right? Judging by the name, it should be for a Mystic."

"The server hasn't even been open for a day; where are we supposed to get a second-transfer skill?"

"Even for Qingyun, we are already top-tier combatants, but I'm afraid we don't have a chance."

"This million is a huge sum for wild players, but for us in Qingyun, it's just okay."

Wusheng quickly shook his head, "You're wrong. In my opinion, the most valuable part of this quest isn't the million in funds, but the favor with this Mysterious Person."

"The system wouldn't give such a reward for no reason. I estimate that for some future quests, favor will likely be a threshold."

"Don't you think so, Nan Tian?"

Southern Sky Legacy Sword was very depressed at this moment, and Lü Daoren and the other team members remained silent.

Because they had all gained favor with the Mysterious Person during last night's quest, they had just received a new quest.

Exchange 10,000 experience points for a small red potion from the Mysterious Person.

This was a losing deal, but the reward was also one point of favor with the Mysterious Person.

After gaining two points of favor, they triggered a third quest.

Help the Mysterious Person obtain any camp teleportation scroll; the reward is still one point of favor.

Therefore, the first reason for their depression was that they didn't have this item on them.

The second reason for their depression was that Dog-head Lolita had been inexplicably killed instantly, and her favor had dropped to zero.

The third and most depressing reason was that this Mysterious Person had also been discovered by Qingyun.

Southern Sky Legacy Sword sighed, "Fine, let's be straight with each other. We did indeed make our first pot of gold from this NPC. But Regeneration Gu is a second-transfer skill; it only drops from special encounters, and we can't get it. Qingyun has the numbers and power, so we'll just have to let you have it."

Wusheng could certainly hear the sourness in his words.

"Nan Tian, saying that is pointless. President Shang actually appreciates you very much. If you had just nodded, the captain of the Qingyun team eight years ago might have been you."

"It was your own choice to be a lone wolf, and you've gone against our boss several times."

"A person has to take responsibility for their own choices."

Southern Sky Legacy Sword snorted, "Of course I'll take responsibility for myself. Our favor is higher than yours, and our quests are higher level than yours. We'll see!"

As Southern Sky Legacy Sword spoke, he was about to call his brothers to return to the camp to buy teleportation scrolls, but just then, the Mysterious Person actually moved.

Tang Long had been enjoying the show, which had triggered a somewhat pleasant memory.

The Qingyun Guild, President Shang Qingyun, whose game character was Qingdi, was quite an interesting character.

Qingyun Heavy Industries was an industrial giant in the Dragon Kingdom, and Shang Qingyun was a top-tier tycoon. He had plenty of money and was willing to invest it.

But as for his Qingyun team, their strength was just so-so.

They could be considered to have a place among the top professional esports clubs, but not much of one—just barely a seat.

In the most important professional tournaments, Qingyun often made it into the top three, but rarely won the championship.

Even so, President Shang often bragged in front of the media.

At first, Tang Long thought this guy was just good at performing, but when the Doomsday Era arrived, he realized that Shang Qingyun actually possessed a natural, mysterious self-confidence.

Shang Qingyun was the first person to call for a counterattack after the Blue Star invasion, and he actually rallied the Qingyun troops, charged forward, and won several battles in a row.

Unfortunately, no amount of confidence could make up for the gap in strength.

After that, ignoring the heavy casualties of several allied forces and their well-intentioned advice, Shang Qingyun continued to attack with Qingyun, and then...

He died.

Everyone found it hard to evaluate his failed counterattack.

Later, a leader of the Resistance Army gave an eight-character commentary.

Lived magnificently, died sloppily.

Being able to connect with Qingyun so quickly, Tang Long felt it was quite good.

Of course, the Baoju Squad was also not bad; they were quite fun people.

Appropriate care was fine, but if he wanted to fleece more players, he absolutely couldn't be monopolized by any one faction, so he had to give a warning earlier.

After watching the excitement for a while, he suddenly noticed a person appearing in the back, with a very obvious Sun Worshipers mark on their chest.

The Sun Worshipers had targeted him so quickly?

Were they fortune tellers, or was their information really that well-informed?

A Sun Worshiper, looking like they were only at the Blood Refining Lower Realm, Tang Long wasn't afraid.

But he wanted to get to know the players well today, so it wasn't convenient to just leave. If he stayed here, the possibility of the Sun Worshipers calling for reinforcements would be very high.

After considering it for a moment, he made a decision.

Go to the Frozen Soil Camp, and later, use the players' strength to play a game with the Sun Worshipers.

Let's see if this batch of players is up to the task.

————

The Sun Worshiper with the codename Ye Mao stood on a large tree branch, holding high-powered binoculars, nervously looking into the distance, his expression unconsciously twisting and twitching from time to time.

Time passed unconsciously until a hand rested on his shoulder, causing him to jump and turn his head sharply.

Turning back, he saw a masked woman glaring at him, who was none other than the captain of their squad, He Ye.

"Cap... Captain?"

"Ye Mao, what's wrong with you? I've been calling you for so long, and you haven't responded."

"I..."

"Where is the person? Did you lose them too?"

"That hasn't happened, but..."

"Don't explain. Lady Peng Lin is here; come down with me to see her."

"What! Lady Peng Lin! She really came?"

He Ye snorted, "Given Lady Peng Lin's status, it really wasn't convenient for her to show her face. But this operation concerns the survival of the organization, so she is personally commanding it. Pull yourself together; don't be so muddled in front of her."

Ye Mao shook his head repeatedly, "No, I wanted to invite Lady Peng Lin to come up and take a look."

"Ask Lady to come up and see you? Are you tired of living?"

"No, no, no, the target went near the Alien God's territory, and something very bizarre happened. I want Lady to see it with her own eyes."

"You bastard! Is that mouth of yours only good for eating? If there's a situation, go down and report it to Lady in person."

The captain was about to scold him again, but another petite figure instantly appeared before them.

She wore a gold mask, and although she was a bit short, her tone revealed an indescribable sense of majesty.

"Alright, He Ye, I heard everything. Ye Mao, did you discover people from The Sect near the target?"

Ye Mao quickly shook his head, "That hasn't happened."

"No? Then what is it that has you so distracted?"

"This..." Ye Mao could only offer the binoculars to her and pointed behind him; the meaning was self-evident.

Peng Lin snorted, took the binoculars, and looked toward the direction of the Frozen Soil Camp.

Then she couldn't help but open her small mouth in surprise.

Because she saw that Tang Long was indeed standing outside the Frozen Soil Camp.

But surrounding him were layers upon layers of the Children of the Alien God, numbering in the thousands.

And these Children of the Alien God were some constantly kowtowing to him, some twisting in completely different ugly postures, some rolling on the ground, some doing handstands, and others...

Jumping in place?

Some lasted for a short time, while some even jumped continuously, with no intention of stopping at all.

According to the intelligence she had, although these Children of the Alien God were extremely weak individually, they could perfectly resurrect after death, so they were all fearless of death.

Their mental states were all abnormal, their desire to attack was extremely strong, and it seemed like anything was possible.

But right now, they were surrounding that Tang Long, doing all sorts of bizarre things, yet they had no intention of attacking him.

Occasionally, when they fought among themselves, Tang Long would make a leap and kill one of their kind, and the ones nearby were actually...

Cheering?
