186: Chapter 186 The Day of Takeoff

This scene couldn't help but send a chill down her spine.

Lowering her binoculars, she couldn't help but mutter to herself, "It's truly bizarre! Too bizarre!"

He Ye grew even more confused. "Lady Peng Lin, what exactly did you see?"

Peng Lin shook her head. "You all know that the target is Tang Long, the Holy Messenger of the Songcheng Sect."

"Now, he has actually mixed with the Children of the Alien God, and it seems quite harmonious. Those lunatics haven't shown any intention of attacking him at all."

"I suspect they are secretly researching the power of the Alien God and have already found a way to deal with the Children of the Alien God."

He Ye was completely stunned. "The people of The Sect, those sanctimonious fanatics of the false god, are secretly researching the power of the Alien God??"

"It can basically be concluded as such! And behind all of this, there must be a huge conspiracy."

"Then... our mission this time..."

Peng Lin took a deep breath. "The mission must continue even more. However, the word 'assassination' is probably out of the question now."

He Ye frowned slightly. "Do you mean... a frontal assault? Can't we wait? It's impossible for him to stay here forever."

Peng Lin shook her head. "First, it seems there are no powerful experts from The Sect protecting him right now, which is already quite good. Perhaps it's because he bears a special mission that we have this opportunity."

"Second, if we wait, once he finishes certain experiments and the experts from The Sect arrive, the risk of mission failure will increase infinitely. These Children of the Alien God are very weak; although there are many of them, they aren't much of an obstacle."

"Third, I also want to verify for sure to what extent his relationship with these Children of the Alien God has reached, and whether these people will fight for him."

"This is very important. I must test the results and report back to the branch manager."

"Understood!"

He Ye nodded deeply and waved her hand gently.

Immediately after, several figures leaped up from under the trees one after another.

Including Peng Lin, herself, and Ye Mao, this elite team totaled ten people, eight of whom were in the Blood Refining Upper Realm.

She had already reached the peak of Blood Refining, and stepping into Open Origin was only a matter of time.

And Peng Lin was even more powerful, already an expert in the Open Origin Realm.

Such a lineup was originally prepared for a head-on clash with The Sect; now, killing a single Tang Long should be without any difficulty.

————

Tang Long sneezed loudly, glanced in a certain direction, then turned back and continued grinning.

Since arriving here, his smile hadn't stopped, and his face was almost cramping from smiling.

But there was no help for it; he really couldn't stop.

Today was the true day of takeoff.

In just over two hours, he was already almost level 20.

Although the experience required for each level doubled, it couldn't withstand the sheer number of players. The total number of online players in Frozen Soil Camp was about two thousand; harvesting ten thousand experience from each person meant over twenty million.

For a while, Tang Long felt that he had harvested enough wool for today.

But he never expected that soon, many beams of white light would descend from the sky again; President Shang had actually brought another batch of people.

Well, there was no help for it; they were all old acquaintances, and he couldn't let them come for nothing, right?

So Tang Long started adding Legendary Points.

20, 25, 30, 35, now it was up to 45, and the number of people was still rising.

If it rose any more... he really wouldn't be able to handle it.

Even though the mission rewards were lowered again and again, with so many people grinding missions, his money was hitting rock bottom.

But these little cuties were willing to do anything just to get a little favorability, which made him feel quite embarrassed.

Looking at how many people were still queuing on the periphery, he could only silently add another 5 Legendary Points to raise the mission quantity limit by one tier.

Five more points, no more.

You can't harvest all the leeks in one go until they are bald.

When the Sun Worshipers attack in a while, if the little cuties aren't useful, he still needs to save some spare attributes to run away.

[Your Legendary Value has reached 50 points!]

[Mission release authority upgraded to LV50, Public Mission function unlocked! Current release distance is one kilometer!]

Huh?

Holy crap, it can do that!

The so-called Public Mission takes effect within a certain area; as long as players enter this area, they automatically accept it, and after completion, everyone automatically receives the reward.

If he released the quest to exterminate the Sun Worshipers now, when they rushed over, they would just fall into a vast ocean of people's war.

The function is a good function, but there is also a big problem.

Tang Long discovered that he was dirt poor.

With these five or six thousand players, he couldn't really afford the rewards.

What should he do?

Meanwhile, the players' interest in him not only hadn't diminished in the slightest but was becoming even more intense.

"Hurry up in front, dammit! Is it worth dawdling so long just to kowtow a few times? Posture straight, heart sincere, just pretend you're visiting your daddy's grave!"

"And those few dancing lewdly, what the hell are you twisting around? Can you finish the mission dancing like that? I beg you, can you go back and practice before coming back?"

"Brother, move aside, please. I need to roll one hundred times, and you're blocking me from doing it."

"I can't even squeeze in to finish the mission, damn it, I'm dying of anxiety."

"Oh no, I can't accept the mission to collect red potions anymore!"

"What! No way, right?"

"It's true, I can't hand in my mission either."

"You bunch of bastards in front, if it weren't for the fact that PK isn't allowed in front of the NPC, I'd hack you all into eighteen pieces!"

"Watashi, f*ck your mother!"

"This bunch of stinking dog shit from Qingyun, what a bunch of damned flies! Why doesn't the Mysterious Person just slap you all to death?"

"Who cursed just now! Lü Daoren, damn it, it's you again!"

"President Shang, can you do something, dammit? If it keeps being this chaotic, it's just wasting everyone's time."

"Dog-head Lolita! Don't try to stir up trouble! We in Qingyun have organized the order ourselves; those crowding are just solo players!"

"Don't be so shameless. Do you think everyone is blind and can't see the prefixes in your names?"

"F*ck! The mission to collect teleportation scrolls is closed too!"

"It's over, my potions and teleportation scrolls are all stuck in my hands."

"Selling large red potions and teleportation scrolls at fair prices, any takers?"

"Thank goodness, all my goods were sold off in time."

"Doesn't matter, this NPC's missions are getting leaner and leaner; there's actually no nutrition left in them."

"You all didn't notice, did you? His missions only give money and items, and favorability, but never experience."

"Make way, everyone! Make a path for the Green Emperor!"

"Holy crap! You actually carried the career mentor out?"

"Haha, aren't we awesome?"

Some laughed, some cried, some roared, some cursed; some were anxious and hopping mad, some were incredibly shocked—a chaotic and lively scene.

Even Tang Long was stunned.

Before, he was just worried about his second advancement, so he casually issued a rather disgusting mission: kidnap the career mentor.

The reward was indeed a bit high: bring one back and receive a golden scale of the Thorn Snake King, plus 5 points of favorability.

The problem was that there were guards protecting the camp; if players attacked camp NPCs, they would be instantly killed by the guards.

Unexpectedly, relying on their numbers, Qingyun simply attacked the guards first.

Although they couldn't kill them, they could temporarily hold them off, and then they managed to beat the career mentor half to death and carry him out.

And just at this moment, his experience bar was topped off, and the level-up message popped up again.

[Your level has increased to LV20! vitality increased by 1000, health recovery increased by 100/hour, Psionic limit increased by 100, gained 5 free attribute points, gained 1 skill point!]

[You have reached level twenty and can obtain a career advancement. Please find a career mentor to learn about related matters.]

[You have reached level twenty, unlocked the function to establish a force! Unlocked the final tier of life skills: Divine Craft!]
