<System Notification: You have triggered a hidden storyline “Ten Boxes of Treasure”. Accept?>
“F*ck!”
Seeing the system notification, Wang Yu was instantly stunned.
What kind of logic was this? If I don’t have it, I can steal… This was blatantly a robber’s logic. It was even more ridiculous since if he wanted them, he could simply rob them on his own instead of asking someone else to do it. What was he trying to achieve?
Wang Yu decisively replied, “This isn’t a good idea. I am a City Lord, how can I be involved in such acts?”
Tsk, you are Dragon Island’s Island Lord so you feel ashamed to bully the weak but I am a City Lord. Of course, I have to be mindful of my status too.
Holy Dragon Emperor saw how Wang Yu was unwilling to go so he smiled wide and said, “Twilight City’s Lord is indeed of high moral! However, only yours truly knows where Dales is so I hope you will reconsider.”
Wang Yu thought through Holy Dragon Emperor’s words and asked with a frown, “You mean that if I don’t take up that quest, I won’t be able to complete this quest?”
“Wow, Twilight City’s Lord indeed does have extraordinary comprehension abilities!” Holy Dragon Emperor laughed shamelessly.
What do you mean extraordinary, anyone not stupid can tell! Wang Yu shook his head in devastation.
“So? Have you considered enough?” Holy Dragon Emperor asked again soon after.
Wang Yu proudly said, “Of course! I’ll do it!”
After hanging out with Quan Zhen Sect for so long, Wang Yu was successfully influenced by their way of thought.
He was playing the game for joy so since there was no moral responsibility in committing heinous crimes, it would be silly of him to hold himself back based on the moral standards he had for robbing.
With the same logic, it was for a quest! This was arranged by the system and robbing was a two-way quest so there was no reason for him to give it up. At least Wang Yu was not so pretentious.
After speaking, Wang Yu clicked to accept the quest.
<System Notification: You have accepted the hidden storyline, “Ten Boxes of Treasure”.
Quest content: Based on rumours, a courier of treasure will be delivered to Sky Dragon City. Before they arrive, borrow ten boxes.
Treasures secured 0/10
Quest notification: Formation of team is not allowed
Quest reward: Holy Dragon Emperor’s familiarity.>
“Tsk, tsk!” Upon seeing the quest content, Wang Yu sighed and shook his head.
This was a lord who really wanted to be remembered for his moral high ground. He was even so careful when assigning a quest. It was obviously robbing but he used the word ‘borrow’.
“So? Are you ready? I shall send you over!” Just then, Holy Dragon Emperor asked him again.
Wang Yu gave it some thought then asked, “How am I supposed to come back?”
To return to Dragon Island, he had to go borrow the teleportation formation from Heavenly Dragon but he only recognised money. Without money, nothing could be done. Furthermore, Wang Yu could only use this Sky Dragon City teleportation formation tomorrow but he did not want to spend the money a second time.
Of course, if he had the teleportation scroll, he could put Dragon Island as a destination but the teleportation scroll was way more expensive than Heavenly Dragon’s teleportation formation. Wang Yu did not have such idle money to spend.
“No problem, take this!” Holy Dragon Emperor chuckled upon hearing his words then a gold token appeared in Wang Yu’s hand.
Dragon Emperor’s Token: A precious equipment. Upon using the Dragon Emperor’s Token, no matter where you are, you will be sent to the Dragon Emperor.
Although this was labelled as a precious equipment, it was actually a teleportation gem with a fixed destination… Without any important matter, no one would want to go to a dangerous place like this Dragon Island.
However, with this, Wang Yu did save on teleportation fees.
“Hehe, that’s more like it!” After looking at the Dragon Emperor’s Token’s attributes, Wang Yu casually kept it in his bag.
Seeing how Wang Yu was prepared, Holy Dragon Emperor gave a wide smile on his face then stretched his two giant claws forward to tear apart the space in front of Wang Yu then with a gentle finger push, he bounced Wang Yu in.
After all, he was on the same level as God of Light. This ability to tear space apart was an unattainable level for any player.
After he was pushed into the crack of space, Wang Yu’s surrounding scene changed into a forest.
Wang Yu looked at the map’s name, Dragon Words Forest, then raised his head and saw a road that cuts through the forest, directly leading into the Sky Dragon City which was a distance away.
Just then, a rustling sound came from one side of the road.
Soon after, a bunch of players surrounding a huge carriage walked over. On the carriage, it was filled with boxes. Obviously, this carriage was carrying the treasure Wang Yu needed.
Indeed a super NPC. He even calculated the exact time to teleport Wang Yu to the exact location.
In an instant, the carriage had already turned the corner and was coming over. Behind the carriage was another big team of players.
In total, there were about thirty to forty players, complete of all jobs and equipment. All of them were dressed in the best equipment and had activated the special effects their equipment had, causing them to be shining from head to toe.
When Wang Yu saw the symbol on their chests, he could not help but laugh.
Wang Yu was no stranger to this symbol. This was Apocalypse’s team.
Wang Yu was a martial artist with great morals so he felt quite bad initially and was thinking of how he could do it indirectly but now that he saw Apocalypse’s players, the little shame he had instantly disappeared into thin air.
Seeing how the team was coming towards him, Wang Yu directly leaped out and steadfastly stood in the middle of the road. He spread his arms open horizontally to block their way.
The Apocalypse players were well on their way when suddenly, they saw a burly man jump out of the forest so they were shocked and panickingly said, “Shit! Ambush! Everyone prepare for battle!”
Obviously these players were on an escort quest so they should have met no short of robbers on the way. Hence, they were familiar with dealing with enemies. Once they heard that there was an ambush, the dozens of them quickly went into a formation with the carriage in the middle.
“Ambush?” Hearing Apocalypse’s players’ yells, Wang Yu looked back and asked puzzledly, “Where’s the ambush?”
“???”
Just then, everyone realised that there was only one enemy in front of them and heaved a sigh of relief.
Amongst them, a bald player who was their leader said, “Are you seeking death? Why are you standing here? You scared us!”
“I’m here to borrow something!” Wang Yu replied.
“We have no money, scram!” The bald player was very impatient but no matter who it was, no one would be in a good mood after a scare so he was not at fault.”
“I’m not here to borrow money!”
“Then what do you want to borrow?” The bald player heard him then suddenly placed his sword horizontally in front of his chest as defence while asking.
Wang Yu calmly said, “Ten boxes of treasure.”
“F*ck!”
Hearing what Wang Yu said, everyone swallowed their saliva then scolded, “Who the f*ck are you? Are you dreaming? How dare you rob Apocalypse’s escort quest!”
Apocalypse was Quan Zhen Sect’s longtime enemy. Their arrogant way of doing things was very similar to Quan Zhen Sect’s and had been notorious for it, especially as a bully in Sky Dragon City so they have never seen anyone so uncanny person who dared to rob them single-handedly.
Wang Yu heard them then laughed, “I am Iron Bull! Hand over the treasure!”
