218: Chapter 218 Bizarre People and Missions

In the blink of an eye, these girls became arrogant again.

"Move aside, move aside! Everyone make way! Let us take the quest first!"

"What? On what grounds? Even your President Shang has to yield to our Princess Yin, so who do you think you are?"

"Don't you understand 'ladies first'?"

"Such poor quality. The barrier to entry for this game is just too low; anyone can play."

"Wow! This Mysterious Person's character model is so handsome. He even has a metal arm; he's a bit like the Winter Soldier!"

More than a hundred people hoped their superiors would give the order to chop this group down, but Shang Qingyun could only shake his head.

But just at this moment, a girl suddenly screamed.

"Perform a striptease? What kind of quest is this?"

"This game is simply terrible. How could they design such a quest?"

"The person who designed this quest must be a total pervert. I'm going to report this quest planner!"

"I accepted this quest too."

"This is sexual harassment! We can sue!"

"The problem is… are we still going to do this quest?"

"Princess, hurry up and turn in that skill quest so we can leave. I feel sick just staying here!"

But at this moment, Princess Yin's expression was also very ugly.

"I… the quest I accepted is the same as yours. There is no such thing as turning in a skill quest like they said on the forums."

"What! Then didn't we collect those skills for nothing?"

"How did others get it?"

Seeing this group of women dumbfounded, the nearby Qingyun members couldn't help but laugh one after another.

"Don't get it, do you? The Mysterious Person's quests are linked one after another. You have to increase your favorability to get the next link."

"If you want to increase favorability, just do as he says. Everyone else did it this way."

"Dance well. If you don't dance well, you might fail the quest."

"Haha, over a hundred people dancing a striptease together—is this content I can watch for free?"

"Hurry up and dance! Don't hog the latrine without doing anything and delay me from selling my blood!"

These women's faces turned green, but they dawdled and not one of them danced. One who was used to being overbearing couldn't help but fire a fireball at the Mysterious Person.

After the Mysterious Person raised his hand to shatter the fireball, he flashed in front of her, raised his hand, and delivered a heavy slap, and her head was gone.

The women were all scared and screamed as they retreated, but the laughter of the watching players grew even louder.

"Holy crap! Where did this hero come from, daring to directly challenge the Mysterious Person!"

"My Mysterious Person boss is not someone who coddles children."

"Forget about a few green tea bitches; with the lineup Mysterious Person boss has today, wiping out Qingyun wouldn't even be a problem!"

"Mysterious Person boss, please show your power and deal with these monsters!"

Tang Long remained motionless, but he was smiling secretly.

He was naturally familiar with this Princess Yin in his past life.

Yuan Ruyin came from a high-ranking official family. Her father was a high-level official at the state-owned Luyin Group, but she grew up spoiled, with gossip news linking her to many male stars from various countries.

In the heavenly change game, relying on her substantial capital and connections, she managed to gather a group of people and establish Ruyin Pavilion, a guild for female players only.

Their top-tier strength wasn't great, but they excelled in sheer numbers and had high popularity. She herself became the district leader of the Dragon Kingdom branch of the Blue Star heavenly change Enthusiasts Association.

However, entering the Doomsday Era, the fate of this Ruyin Pavilion was lamentable.

The core group of Ruyin Pavilion was a collection of people with a seriously twisted ideology; they were the group that clamored the loudest about welcoming Blue Star people to Earth.

What they loved to discuss most was how bad Earth was, how it really needed saving by Blue Star, which god had the highest status, which protagonist was the most handsome, and which CP they shipped the most.

This atmosphere seriously misled the thinking of many female players.

Even after the invasion truly happened and countless people died, it didn't make this group realize the truth.

They still thought they could facilitate peace between the two worlds, and actually used their influence to force the newly formed Allied Army to negotiate peace.

The result of this peace talk was that three leaders of the Resistance Army fell into an ambush and were all killed in battle.

And Yuan Ruyin herself was captured alive by a Blue Star powerhouse in that battle.

Then, she surrendered.

Whether coerced or voluntary.

Since then, she used herself as bait, repeatedly luring the Resistance Army into rescue missions, causing the deaths of even more people.

Because of this woman, the Dragon Kingdom Resistance Army suffered heavy losses at the beginning of its formation and found it difficult to gain the trust of the Resistance Armies of other countries. For over a decade, they could only remain a lone army.

Tang Long was certain that if he could return to Earth and see this woman, he would execute her without hesitation.

And now, he didn't want to give these women even a shred of benefit.

Also, while listening to the players chat, he discovered that the first dungeon had opened.

Although it was just the most basic five-man dungeon, its normal difficulty yielded first and second-tier skills, and the challenge difficulty had a chance to yield blue equipment or even skill fruits.

Regeneration Gu had already appeared; could Clone Technique be far behind?

Thus, amidst this commotion, he called out loudly.

[Mysterious Person: Qingdi, my friend, please come to my side! We need to talk!]

With just this one sentence, the anger Shang Qingyun had been holding in for so long immediately dissipated.

He immediately, under the astonished gazes of everyone, quickly came before Tang Long.

[Mysterious Person: Qingdi, after my observation, I am certain that you are a dependable partner. Now I invite you to join my organization. Would you be willing?]

Invite me to join an organization?

Qingdi couldn't help but have his eyes light up, and he immediately chose "Yes."

[Mysterious Person: Very good. However, our organization is quite special. You still need to seriously answer three questions, to be completed within a thirty-second time limit. Mind the time.]

[Question 1: The Heavenly King covers the earth with tigers, what is the next line?]

[Question 2: Under what circumstances does one plus one equal three?]

[Question 3: What does the song being earthy have to do with me? What is the next line?]

[Countdown: 29...]

"The pagoda suppresses the river demon!"

Shang Qingyun answered the first question immediately.

But for the second and third questions, he only had a vague impression, and since he didn't watch TV often, he wasn't sure, so he could only shout in a hurry.

"Quick, quick, someone come here! Tell me, under what circumstances does one plus one equal three?"

"Boss, why are you suddenly asking this?"

"Mysterious Person is inviting me to join his organization; this is the joining quest!"

"Holy crap! For real? Mysterious Person can actually invite us?"

"It's inviting the boss."

"Favorability is indeed very useful."

"But what kind of organization is this? Why does he ask such questions?"

"Stop chatting! There's a time limit for the questions; give me the answer quickly!"

"Boss, it equals three when you calculate it wrong!"

"Nice! Last question: What does the song being earthy have to do with me? What is the next line?"

"Answer: How many words am I?"

[Mysterious Person: All answers are correct! Qingdi, welcome to becoming a member of the {Dragon Speakers}!]

[You have joined the faction {Dragon Speakers}!]

[Obtained deposit access to the faction warehouse!]

[Obtained purchasing access to the faction store!]

As the quest was completed and he successfully joined the faction, the label "Dragon Speakers" immediately appeared under Qingdi's name.

The Qingyun players were even more excited, shouting and yelling.

"Wow! So Mysterious Person's organization is called the Dragon Speakers!"

"Dragon Speakers, doesn't that just mean people who speak the Dragon Kingdom language?"

"So it turns out they are our own people!"

"It must be right. Look at the emblem that just appeared on the boss's shoulder! A red dragon, exclusive to us, the descendants of the dragon!"

"Boss, what are the benefits of joining the faction?"

"There is a faction warehouse, but I don't have enough authority yet; I can only deposit but not withdraw. And there's a faction store—they actually sell equipment here!"

"Is the equipment good?"

"Of course it's good. Although it's white-tier, the stats are damn high. The armor has over a hundred defense, and the combat blade has over two hundred attack. Moreover, there is only one set—it's the same set that Mysterious Person is wearing!"

"I don't have enough contribution points; quickly transfer 300,000 coins to me!"

A few minutes later, Qingdi also changed into a set of golden armor with a bright red cape, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Tang Long.

Although he couldn't even walk properly after putting on this armor, his sense of pride was still written all over his face.
