Chapter 1496: Teacher’s Mission
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
As Wang Yu mentioned, the very next day, Captain Don’t Open Fire held his auction in the municipal hall.
It had to be reemphasised that Captain Don’t Open Fire was indeed flushed with immense wealth.
Other than several large guild buildings and the properties in Western District, he still had many other private residences in other urban districts.
It was fortunate that Wang Yu had banished him from Twilight City or else it would reach a point one day where the whole Twilight City would be bought over by him.
Wang Yu had given Captain Don’t Open Fire three days’ worth of time so the prices at the auctions did not reach sky-high levels. They were mostly at the cost price.
The value of gold coins had fallen significantly since the moment that Captain Don’t Open Fire had acquired these properties. It was not surprising that Captain Don’t Open Fire made quite a loss this time.
There was no way around it. If he did not complete all his dealings in three days, his properties would all be confiscated and he would end up with nothing.
Sanguine Alliance was also a large guild that required additional infrastructure to expand. In the end, they bought over all the guild properties that Captain Don’t Open Fire was selling.
The supply of gold coins increased as the game matured. Many of these players had tens of thousands of savings. Moreover, with the use of installment contracts, these players could afford to buy property.
However, the bulk of this money went into funding essential equipment in the game. Property was only bought by couples. This was quite in line with what was happening to government policy in real life.
The fellas from Quan Zhen Sect were neither lacking money nor equipment. With an opportunity like that, they were naturally going to invest heavily.
Even Wang Yu could not help him as he bought over the alley where Mu Zixian operated her store.
It was highly likely that this genre of game would remain popular for the next ten to twenty years. Investing in a storefront was a good investment. Even if it was underutilised, one could rent out to the smaller guilds for their own activities.
For the players from Void Blade, once they had heard that their guild was banished from Twilight City, many of them withdrew from the guild in view of their familial ties.
There were only a thousand players that left with Captain Don’t Open Fire at the very end. However, these remaining players were the top experts. This whole episode might even actually turn out well for Void Blade in the end.
Following the departure of Void Blade, the rest of the smaller guilds were well aware of their position.
Even though Quan Zhen Sect and Sanguine Alliance did not find trouble with them this time, they knew the consequence if they dared to cross them once again.
Void Blade had the means and the resources yet they were still chased out of Twilight City. Therefore, the smaller guilds would not be able to put up a fight if they revolted.
With this one move, in the space of one month, Wang Yu managed to stabilise all the unrest in Twilight City. He returned order and harmony to the city under his leadership.
The players lived in understanding and tranquility. There was not even a single fight to be seen on the streets, let alone PK.
In one month, Wang Yu rose from level 61 to level 65 while the other players from Quan Zhen Sect rose to level 60 as they busied themselves with their level 60 skill quest.
When Wang Yu reached level 65, there was a <System Notification: Hermit is looking for you.>
It looked like he was going to receive a quest because Old Man Hermit would definitely not search out Wang Yu on his own accord.
In a small alley in Twilight City, Old Man Hermit was awaiting.
Following the usual procedures, Wang Yu took out a bottle of wine and uncorked it.
Old Man Hermit emerged from his hiding spot once he smelled a whiff of the alcohol.
“Burppp!”
Feeling tipsy after guzzling down a bottle of wine, Old Man Hermit belched as he looked at Wang Yu with a satisfied gaze, “You are here!”
“Yes!” Wang Yu respectfully paid his respects, “Is there a reason Teacher is looking for me?”
“You have made significant improvements in this period of time.” Old Man Hermit said slowly, “I think you are almost at the point where you can help me do something.”
<System Notification: You have activated Teacher’s Quest “Dark Crevice”, do you accept the quest?>
Wang Yu would spend his time with Mu Zixian trawling the forums after they went offline. They had heard of the Teacher’s Quest before and it was a skill quest that was available for players after they had reached level 60. It was at this point when all the basic skills were fully upgraded. Increasing one’s level also required an astronomical amount of experience points from the dungeon. An alternative way to accumulate points was to complete this Teacher’s Quest.
In <<REBIRTH>>, there were ten Teacher’s Quests for each occupation with varying difficulty. Some required players to kill a god-level BOSS, but some were trivial. However, each quest accorded a large amount of experience points, prestige, merit points and even gold coins.
Wang Yu was indeed special. He had achieved level 60 for over a month already but this was the first time that he was sought out for such a quest.
From its name Dark Crevice, one could deduce that the difficulty of this mission would not be low. Wang Yu was the sort of player that liked to challenge himself but based on his understanding of Old Man Hermit, there was indeed something fishy about this whole thing,
A player could decide whether or not to accept a Teacher’s Quest. If no answer was given, the mission would remain in the inbox. However, if one were to reject the quest, this would incur the wrath of the Teacher and the player would not receive any other quests for the next 30 days.
The rewards from these Teacher’s quests were very alluring. A player could easily fall behind by two levels if they failed to accept these quests while their peers did. If it was not the case, no one would be so free to entertain these Teachers.
“Accept!”
Wang Yu did not waste another second as he made his selection.
Sure enough, once Wang Yu accepted the quest, Old Man Hermit chuckled to himself.
“Hehehe, you are indeed a good student.”
“…”
Wang Yu was taken aback by Old Man Hermit’s strange smile as his hairs stood on end. He wiped away the cold sweat and inquired, “Teacher, could you enlighten me on what I need to do?”
“Don’t worry!” Old Man Hermit replied, “She will be here shortly. This is not a solo mission.”
“She?” Wang Yu furrowed his brows, “There are others involved?”
Wang Yu was even more apprehensive about the whole affair after hearing Old Man Hermit’s reply.
As the saying goes, a God-like opponent is less scary than a useless teammate. If it was a solo quest, there was nothing that could faze Wang Yu.
However, there were more variables at play now that Wang Yu had a companion.
If it was simply a cooperative relationship, with Wang Yu’s strength, his companion could easily hide in the resurrection point the whole mission. If it turned out to be an escort mission, things would turn out to be much more tricky.
Just as Wang Yu was pulling a long and depressed face and considering if he wanted to beat Old Man Hermit up, a familiar figure entered the alleyway.
“Wow, how pretty!”
Old Man Hermit rushed towards the lady with a lascivious expression and waved, “You are finally here. Did you bring what I wanted?”
