“What is this?” Seeing how Peak of Perfection treasured it so much, Wang Yu was curious. With Peak of Perfection’s great luck, what could still catch his eye?
Peak of Perfection said, “Honestly speaking, this is a job change token… With it, I can change my job to a Hero.”
“Oh, job change token…” Hearing what Peak of Perfection said, Wang Yu instantly understood.
Every faction only had seven Heroes and every token was unique so they could not be any more precious. Even Peak of Perfection could not easily give it up.
However, Fearless laughed, “Who knew that our first Mercenary quest would cost the Darkness Faction such great losses.”
Wang Yu did not understand, “What has this got to do with the Darkness Faction?”
Fearless laughed out loud, “Haha, they lost a Hero for no reason. Is that not a loss?”
Wang Yu was speechless, “…”
Indeed, based on Peak of Perfection’s abilities, even when he was equipped with godly equipment, he was still easily beaten up by newbies. There was simply no use for him to have this Hero job. No matter how impressive the job was, it was a waste on him.
Peak of Perfection smiled, “That’s why it is always fair in a game. Even if I am incapable of anything else, so long as I have the ability, I can get anything I want.”
Ling Longmeng said, “Is that what the rich players always say?”
Peak of Perfection said, “Just like my intelligence and luck, that is their advantage.”
“Hmm…” Ling Longmeng was in deep thought for a bit and said, “Based on how shameless you are, it really matches your level of intelligence.”
Peak of Perfection replied, “For this quest, I offended the greatest guild of Cloud Mountain City. They aren’t chasing after me now because they want to use me to complete the quest then ambush me at the NPC when they complete the quest. Hence, I need Brother Ironbull to escort me back.”
Players needed to converse with the NPC to complete their mission. Once they conversed, their [Stealth] skill would lose its effect… Hence, even if Peak of Perfection was an Assassin, there was not much he could do.
“The greatest guild?” Wang Yu thought for a bit then said, “It is troublesome to have you around. If Fearless and the rest come with me, there’s a higher chance we would succeed.”
People who did not undergo professional training for bodyguards would not be able to do well. Even though Wang Yu was a legendary expert, it would be easier for him to kill a thousand targets than to protect a weakling like Peak of Perfection.
“Don’t kid me…” Fearless said, “Cloud Mountain City is the Darkness Faction’s main city. It is different from neutral cities like ours. The few of us would probably not be able to even enter the city gates.”
“Really?” Wang Yu questioned, “So can I enter?”
“Yes, you can,” Peak of Perfection said.
“Why?”
“I heard from them that you are from the Neutral Faction…”
When they were fighting the Herb Flower Fairy, Wang Yu did mention that he was from the Neutral Faction.
The Neutral Faction had always seen as foreigners with impressive abilities and did things as they wished so they did not belong to either Darkness or Light. Both large factions’ people also did not casually taunt these impressive lads so Wang Yu who was from the Neutral Faction could freely enter all main cities.
“Alright.” Wang Yu said, “Before that, let me repair my weapons.”
“Weapons? Don’t worry, I can make you the best pair of boxing gloves,” Peak of Perfection confidently said.
Wang Yu waved his hand and said, “No need, but I am short of a material which I wonder if you have.”
“What material?”
“Perishing God Stone,” Wang Yu said.
“I haven’t heard of this. You know, I survive on my brains and don’t do physical work…” Peak of Perfection said, not being able to help.
The main sources of materials were from fighting BOSS or mining. Based on Peak of Perfection’s standards, there was no way he could fight a BOSS and he also refused to mine, something that novices did. Furthermore, Perishing God Stone was rare so it was normal that he had not heard of it.
Just then, Ling Longmeng said, “Perishing God Stone, it sounds familiar.”
“You’ve seen somewhere selling it?” Wang Yu asked in surprise.
“Probably from you…” Ling Longmeng said after thinking hard.
“From me?” Wang Yu did not believe it, “How would I not know?”
Just then, Fearless also recalled and said loudly, “You forgot? When we were in Dusk Forest fighting the BOSS, those few things that dropped were Perishing God Stones.”
“Oh?” Wang Yu heard him and opened his ring’s space. Indeed, he saw two jet black Perishing God Stones lying in his storage ring. The storage ring was not counted as a backpack so when they accepted the quest, it did not show that he had these stones.
“Damn it, it has always been here… I actually have these in my possession, great!” Seeing the Perishing God of Stones, Wang Yu’s mood turned better as though he found hundreds of dollars in his pocket while doing the laundry.
“Alright, then I shall go back. After you repair your weapons, we can leave together.” Peak of Perfection thought that Wang Yu repairing his weapons would take some time so seeing how Wang Yu had all his materials, he was happy too.
The hidden quests gave a lot of XP and directly levelled up Wang Yu, who was 90% completed, to level 45. Even though they lost several people on the way, they still gained a lot of XP.
Returning to Twilight City, Peak of Perfection gave out the rewards to the rest of Quan Zhen Sect.
“F*ck, earth attribute high-level magic, [Rock-climbing]! Amazing!” Ming Du, who just got an Ancient Armour, was so excited to see Peak of Perfection take out the skill book.
Of all systems, Earth Magicians were the strongest Magicians. They were the top in both attack and defence, and more importantly, [Rock-climbing] skill can change a terrain’s features. Terrain skills always had pretty good control effects and so, this was very good to have for Ming Du who lacked control skills.
“Look at mine…” Spring Halo lifted his ring finger and summoned a small worm which flew around everyone. With another lift of his ring finger, the small worm disappeared.
“Chey, what’s so impressive about this little trick. Look at my armour…” Vainglory was about to show off the armour he just got and Spring Halo smiled widely and said, “It’s vision sharing.”
“Shucks, I want to be a Magician too!”
“I am a Shaman!”
“I want to be a Shaman too…” Vainglory started fretting over his job as a Pugilist.
Peak of Perfection was indeed the player with the most good things. Everything he casually took out was worth a fortune but when compared to the job change token, they still could not match up.
Just as everyone was happily showing off what they got, when it was Crotch Lord’s turn, he did not say anything.
“Little Crotchy, what did Peak give you? Show us…” everyone asked Crotch Lord out of curiosity.
“A skill book to reduce damage. Anyway, did you guys see Old Bull?” Crotch Lord asked.
Yang Nuo said, “He went to the bank to get materials to repair his equipment.”
