Chapter 212 Special Task
"How's the game going? Why didn't you let me level you up? What level are you now?"
In a luxuriously decorated living room, Qiao Dingwu looked at Dongfang Jing, who walked out of the room, and asked.
Faced with Qiao Dingwu's question, Dongfang Jing hesitated for a moment but still replied truthfully:
"Level 17."
"Level 7?"
At first, Qiao Dingwu didn't pay much attention and casually said:
"Do you want me to find someone to help you level up? That way, you can get out of there sooner..."
But as he said this, Qiao Dingwu suddenly realized and looked at the woman fiddling with the TV remote in surprise:
"Did you say level 7 or level 17?"
Dongfang Jing sat down on the sofa, deliberately tried its elasticity, and then turned on the TV with the remote control, saying to Qiao Dingwu:
"Level 17."
"You!"
Qiao Dingwu looked at this mysterious woman with an incredulous expression and said in shock:
"How did you reach level 17 in just three days?"
Even Qiao Dingwu himself took nearly a week to reach level 17!
Not to mention that he had the help of many brothers in the guild, but this mysterious woman, who was new to the game, managed to level up to 17 in just three days? This was simply unbelievable.
However, Dongfang Jing did not choose to answer Qiao Dingwu's question, instead she said:
"Thank you for saving me. I'll probably move out in a few days."
Then she looked at the dumbfounded Qiao Dingwu,
"Is there anything you need me to do for you?"
"A lot of money or help you fulfill a wish."
Qiao Dingwu stared blankly at this stunningly beautiful woman with flawless features.
Under Dongfang Jing's curious gaze, Qiao Dingwu suddenly chuckled:
"If I need money, I can earn it myself."
"As for a wish..."
He looked at her exquisite face, paused for a moment, and spoke slowly:
"Can I ask you a question?"
Dongfang Jing nodded slightly:
"Sure."
Qiao Dingwu asked doubtfully:
"What's your relationship with Feng Hua? Why did you have such a big reaction when you were unconscious and heard me mention him?"
Dongfang Jing paused for a moment and replied:
"I can only tell you that he is a very important person to me."
Qiao Dingwu, as if relieved, took a deep breath and said:
"I understand."
Then Qiao Dingwu said:
"You must be the one who suddenly showed up as 'Jing', right?"
Dongfang Jing:
"Yes."
Hearing this, most of Qiao Dingwu's doubts were resolved.
Then Qiao Dingwu switched to a lighter topic and said:
"What would you like to eat? Before you leave, I'll cook you a nice meal."
"You know, not everyone gets to taste my cooking."
......
On the vast, endless sea under a clear sky, Lin Yi rode his Nightmare, staring at the gigantic figure with three heads crouched on the sea like a small mountain, swallowing hard.
Parsa Song Ryo Lv81
Deep Sea Forbidden Area Guardian Beast
Life Value: 1000000000/1000000000
"Wow, 1 billion life value!"
Lin Yi was speechless.
This thing could just stand still and let Lin Yi hit it until the game servers shut down, and he still wouldn't be able to kill it.
Not to mention breaking its defense, even if he could deal damage, the recovery rate might outpace any damage he could inflict.
However, apart from everything else, this giant's equipment shadow actually included a Demigod Artifact Shield, two Holy Artifact Armors, and four pieces of Legendary Equipment, each one a top-notch item!
Amidst all these equipments, there was also something that looked like a head, which particularly caught Lin Yi's attention.
Because at this creature's level, it's impossible for a "trash" item to be mixed in with a pile of top-notch equipment.
Yet after staring for a long time, Lin Yi couldn't figure out if it was a Rare Material or some kind of special equipment.
But after thinking for a moment, Lin Yi decided to let it go.
Even if he knew, so what? He couldn't defeat it anyway and could only stare at it.
Maybe once he reaches level 85 and has passed the Divine Tribulation to ascend to godhood, he might try to challenge it.
As for now...
Lin Yi didn't even dare to think about approaching it, let alone trying to kill it.
Calming the shock in his heart, Lin Yi quickly pulled up the quest panel to check the task details first.
If the task required him to kill it, that would really be a bummer.
What puzzled Lin Yi the most was that in his previous life, having reached over 40 floors, he had never encountered such a situation.
[Endless Tower Challenge Floor 3]
Quest Objective: Investigate whether the target possesses the Head of Carrel: Yes/No.
Fixed Reward: Rare Equipment of current profession Lv20×1; Gold Coins×10.
Star Level Random Reward×1: Epic Equipment of current profession Lv20; Gold Coins×15; Rare Equipment of current profession Lv20; Ordinary Equipment Lv20; Gold Coins×5 (Higher Star Ratings increase the chance of receiving higher rewards).
Star Level Requirement: ★★★ (Perfect): No time limit.
"This quest..."
Lin Yi stared at the quest objectives, suddenly feeling something and looked up at the sky.
Why does it feel like this quest was tailor-made for him?
Lin Yi opened the submission interface, seeing only two options:
[Yes] [No]
This meant that Lin Yi could select either option to achieve a Three Stars rating and complete the challenge without any time constraints.
If this quest wasn't specifically designed for him, Lin Yi wouldn't believe it even if it killed him.
Because Lin Yi couldn't think of anyone else who could obtain this information without killing the other party.
The head he had been pondering over turned out to be an actual human head, Lin Yi: "..."
Could it be that she discovered this ability on the second floor?
Thinking that he was being "monitored" all the time, Lin Yi couldn't shake off the weird feeling.
Moreover, it proved his suspicions right, this Guardian was indeed not a system npc.
The head of Carrel mentioned in the quest was most likely referred to that head.
Looking at the shadow of that Demigod Artifact equipment, that could have been a Demigod Artifact at level 70 or even level 80!
With immense melancholy, Lin Yi submitted the quest, choosing: [Yes].
Unexpectedly, the system prompted once again:
"Do you confirm your selection?"
[Confirm] [Cancel]
Lin Yi helplessly clicked: [Confirm].
At that moment, the voice of the old woman came again:
"Do you want to continue the challenge?"
Lin Yi said:
"Continue."
Then the surrounding scenery shifted, and inside a dark cave, a gigantic toad hopped back and forth.
Toad King Lv28
Life Value: 200000/200000
Lin Yi opened the quest panel:
[Endless Tower Challenge Floor 4]
Quest Objective: Deal 0/80000 damage to the Toad King.
Fixed Reward: Rare Equipment of current profession Lv20×1; Gold Coins×10.
Star Level Random Reward×1: Epic Equipment of current profession Lv25; Gold Coins×10; Rare Equipment of current profession Lv25; Ordinary Equipment Lv25; Gold Coins×1 (Higher Star Ratings increase the chance of receiving higher rewards).
Star Level Requirement: ★★★ (Perfect): Defeat the Toad King; ★★ (Excellent): Meet the objective within 20 minutes; ★ (General): No time limit.
After seeing the quest objectives, Lin Yi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief:
"Finally back to normal."
Meanwhile, on the vast sea, a hunched figure materialized from the void, shouting angrily into the sky, stirring up giant waves:
"Three-headed Worm, get out here!"
