"Alright, I've completed the mission. Give me the reward.”Qin Yu looks at the stunned Garas and says calmly.
"Alright."
Galas did not delay at all. His rough finger tapped on the void. A virtual screen appeared in front of Qin Yu. At the same time, the system notification sounded.
[Congratulations to the player for completing the combat mission: Flaming Feather]
[Mission Completion Rating: A]
[Reward: 20000 experience points]
......
[Congratulations to the player for completing the combat mission: Flaming Feather]
[Mission Completion Rating: A]
[Reward: 20000 experience points]
Congratulations to player Emperor Qin for leveling up. Current level: Level 13
Congratulations to player Emperor Qin for leveling up. Current level: Level 14
More than ten notifications sounded in succession, and his experience points increased rapidly. 100000 experience points allowed him to level up twice in a row, and his combat strength had also reached a terrifying level of 510!
On the other side, Qian Ziyan also received a huge amount of experience points. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, obviously very happy.
Galas looks at Qin Yu and says with a faint smile: "Newbie, remember what I told you. If you can complete ten Flaming Feathers missions, I will give you a special mission.”
"Of course I remember. Otherwise, I wouldn't be standing here.”Said Qin Yu with a light smile.
"Newbie, how's your courage?"
"I can't say I'm number one, but at least I'm not afraid of death.”
"Haha, good!" Galas grinned. Then I'll entrust this special mission to you. I hope you can complete it!”
As soon as he finished speaking, another new virtual screen appeared in front of Qin Yu.
Qin Yu looked over. When he saw the contents of the mission, his pupils suddenly constricted.
[Special Mission: Forbidden Player]
[Quest Details: Battle Quest NPC Galas was originally a player. Due to triggering a taboo, the system stripped him of his player identity. He was imprisoned in Chaos Town and punished by issuing a battle quest for 100 years. Seeing that you are brave, Galas asks you to save him and turn him back into a player.]
[Quest Difficulty: SS]
[Mission Reward: ???]
[Failure penalty: None]
take no for an answer
The Galas in front of him was originally a player, but because he triggered some kind of taboo, the system deprived him of his player qualifications and turned him into an NPC?
Qin Yu was shocked. He realized that he was getting more and more confused about this God Slaying game. Players could actually become NPCs. Then what about the other NPCs? Were they also players?
Thinking of this, he looked at the other NPCs beside him. For some reason, he could feel that these NPCs 'gazes seemed to be focused on him, making him feel very uncomfortable.
Seeing that Qin Yu is not speaking and has not made a decision, Garas, who is at the side, immediately becomes anxious. He says very anxiously: "Newbie…No, big brother, I beg you. You must help me this time. No matter if it succeeds or not, I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life. I have really had enough of staying in this damn place. I beg you!”
This pleading look was no longer as arrogant as it was at the beginning.
Qin Yu frowns. He does not agree immediately. Instead, he says softly: "First, tell me the price of completing this quest and some information, as well as why you became an NPC. If I feel that something is wrong, I will immediately turn around and leave.”
This special mission was too strange, so he did not dare to make a decision directly. If he was accidentally tricked and changed to be an NPC, he would go crazy if he was locked in the game and issued missions!
"Alright, alright, I'll tell you now!"
Garas hurriedly nods, afraid that Qin Yu will refuse this task if he is unhappy. Then he begins to explain a series of situations. His eyes unconsciously reveal a trace of sadness.
" About eight years ago, I entered this game for the first time. I was doing very well. Within three months, I reached level 40 and won the respect of many people. At that time, I was in the limelight for a while, and my heart swelled with it.”
" In a coincidental situation, I entered a black valley. As soon as I took a step forward, I was forcefully pushed out by a force. Before I could react, the system issued a punishment notice, stripped me of my player status, turned me into an NPC, and imprisoned me in Chaos Town.”
"However, it also gave me a chance. A player below Level 20 can enter the Blackflame Forest's Illusory Void. The Void Crystal inside can turn me back into a player.”
After listening to Galas 'narration, Qin Yu frowns and says: "Just this bit of information?"
"I'm not lying to you. That's all I know." Galas shook his head helplessly.”
"Where did you meet that black valley?”
"I'm not sure either. The memories of that period seemed to have been forcefully erased by the system. I can only vaguely remember that it was a black valley, a forbidden existence.”
"I see. Then what is the Illusory Void? I don't remember there being any records of this place in the Blackflame Forest.”Qin Yu asked again.
"The Black Flame Forest is just a facade to deceive players. The real core is the Illusory Void. As long as players have an Illusory Stone, they can enter the Illusory Void. In fact, the Illusory Void is also a training ground. However, it is different from other places. It is illusory. When players enter the Illusory Void to train, they can conjure the strongest item in their heart and pass through it. It is divided into a total of nine stages.”
As Galas spoke, a trace of loneliness and sadness appeared in the depths of his eyes. He had been locked up in a place for several years and could not move around freely. His food and drink were all created by the system. He could not even commit suicide. He had completely collapsed.
Qin Yu pondered. He could tell that Galas was not lying. What he said was true. However, he was not sure if he was hiding anything.
There were too many uncertain factors in this game, making him unable to make a decision at once. If he completed an SS-rank special mission, he would definitely receive a lot of rewards. What if he failed? There might be no punishment, but there might not be a chance to punish him, right?
A moment later, he exhaled and decided to accept this mission. Opportunity always came with danger. If he did not dare to accept this mission because of cowardice, how far could he go in the future?
A timid person would not be able to travel far on the path of the strong.
His eyes were calm as he looked at the lonely Galas and whispered,"I accept your mission."
Hearing this, Galas is stunned. He suddenly raises his head and looks at Qin Yu with a pair of burning eyes. A tear actually flows down from the corner of his eye. He says very excitedly: "I knew you were a good person and would definitely be willing to help. Good people get good rewards."
The corner of Qin Yu's mouth twitched. Why did he feel like he had heard this line before?
Could it be that this big brother was a transmigrator?
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. I can accept your mission, but there's a condition.”
“... What conditions?" Galas asked tentatively.
Qin Yu stretched out his right hand and made a gesture of 'three'. He said calmly: "Three years. If I successfully rescue you, you will be my follower for three years. What do you think?”
Hearing Qin Yu's words, Galas looked a little conflicted. If he agreed, it would be equivalent to him coming out of the tiger's den and entering the wolf's den. He would be bound by Qin Yu as soon as he broke free from the system's restraints.
However, if he did not agree and Qin Yu refused to help, he would not have the chance to go out. After all, it was too difficult for a level 20 player to find a powerful and reliable one.
A moment later, he gritted his teeth and whispered,""Alright, I promise you. Let's make a deal.”
"Yes."
Qin Yu nodded and brought up the function template. He clicked on the option of the Eye of Law. This was the function he used to gamble with the three of them. After making an agreement, it would be witnessed by the system. Violators would be directly erased by the system. It was very ruthless but also very reliable.
I, the Qin Emperor, hereby make a promise with Galas. If I can retrieve the Void Crystal and successfully rescue him and return him to the players, he will follow me for three years.
Abandon the covenant
After entering the agreement, Qin Yu directly clicked on the agreement. A virtual screen popped up in front of Galas. After he looked at it, he also clicked accept.
After making the agreement, Qin Yu put away the template and said calmly: "Since the agreement has been made, tell me, where can I get the Illusion Stone?”
Galas nodded." I'm the only one in Chaos Town who has two Illusion Stones. The system gave me five in total. I asked three players for help, and in the end, I only have these two left.”
Qin Yu's gaze focused. He frowned and said,"You said that you asked three players for help. Then, they failed. What happened to them?"”
Garas was hiding something from him, and the thing he was hiding was probably the punishment for failing to challenge the Illusory Void. He had already guessed it, so he was not angry.
"Uh..."
Realizing that he had accidentally let it slip, Galas smiled and lowered his voice."Those three players were lost in the Illusory Void because the objects they imagined weren't strong enough. I'm not sure about their current situation, but I reckon they're probably dead.”
Qin Yu looked at him and said coldly."You'd better tell me everything about the Illusory Void. Otherwise, if I fail, you won't feel good either. If you want me to go to the Illusory Void, you must give me the remaining two Illusion Stones.”
In order to prevent Galas from hiding anything, he directly gave the order.
If he lost the last two Illusion Stones, he wouldn't be able to find another player to help him. Unless he didn't want to go out, he wouldn't dare to lie anymore.
Hearing Qin Yu's words, Galas shook his head without hesitation and said firmly: "This is definitely not possible. If you fail, what will happen to me? I will be locked up here for the rest of my life?”
"Then you can wait for the next player to help you.”
Qin Yu left behind these words. He then turned around and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, Galas immediately became anxious. It was not easy to get Qin Yu to agree to help him, but now he had to leave. He had to wait until the next player.
When one was anxious, one could not care so much.
He gritted his teeth and quickly said," Wait, wait a moment. I agree. I'll give you the last two Illusion Stones!"”
Qin Yu stopped walking. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He turned his head and said."Why didn't you do this earlier? You still have to go on this trip. Tell me everything about the Illusory Void first. If you hide anything, I'll fail and stay in there forever.”
"I understand."
Galas sighed and said slowly,"" The Illusory Void is an illusory trial ground. The trials inside are different from other trials. They all rely on the player's imagination. The clearer and stronger the player's imagination is, the easier it is to clear the trial. However, if there is a gap or unclear in the player's imagination, they will not be able to materialize it. Once they fail to clear the trial, they will be locked inside forever and trapped in the environment. They will not be able to live or die.”
"There are nine levels in the Illusory Void, and the highest record for a challenger is five levels. Rumor has it that there will be a mysterious reward for clearing the ninth level, but no one knows what it is exactly. As long as players clear one level, they can choose to leave.”
"This is the Void Stone. Keep it. The method to use it is very simple. When you reach the Black Flame Forest, click on it and it will bring you into the Illusory Void.”
Galas took out two stones that were emitting silver light and handed them to Qin Yu.
"I hope you're not lying again."
Qin Yu extended his hand to receive them. He placed the two Void Stones into his backpack. He gave him an indifferent glance, then turned around and left.
He walked over to Qian Ziyan and sat down.
Qian Ziyan saw that he had returned and asked calmly,""What took you so long?"
"I accepted a big mission, a dangerous mission with an 80% chance of death.”
