“Xiu Luo!”
A sudden soft cry from behind made Zhang Yue’s heart jolt!
He turned around to see a girl in a white priest robe, standing about 1.6 meters tall, giving off a delicate and fragile vibe.
“Do you know the significance of the name Xiu Luo?” Zhang Yue calmly gazed at the Level 21 priest girl with the ID “White Rabbit Creamy Candy” and said, “Xiu Luo is a god in the Dragon Kingdom. To casually label someone as Xiu Luo is to blaspheme the gods!”
With that, Zhang Yue turned to leave.
Suddenly, White Rabbit Creamy Candy called out from behind, “You are the god!”
“You are Xiu Luo!”
Zhang Yue’s heart jolted again.
He turned back to White Rabbit Creamy Candy, his eyes burning as he stared at her and asked in a deep voice, “Did you send the letter?”
White Rabbit Creamy Candy, never having felt such intense pressure from someone’s gaze, involuntarily took two steps back, her eyes flashing with fear.
“Xiu Luo died a hundred years ago, don’t you know?” Zhang Yue didn’t know if she was testing him or if she truly knew his identity.
White Rabbit Creamy Candy mustered her courage and said to Zhang Yue, “No, he didn’t die!”
“He’s right here! He is you!”
Zhang Yue’s eyes burned with intensity, “Who told you that?”
“You… you help me with something, and I’ll tell you!”
“Are you threatening me?” A hint of killing intent flashed in Zhang Yue’s eyes.
White Rabbit Creamy Candy took another step back, frightened into silence by Zhang Yue’s murderous expression.
Zhang Yue saw through it.
She was merely testing him!
She had no idea that Zhang Yue was indeed Xiu Luo!
So, Zhang Yue decided not to waste any more time and turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, White Rabbit Creamy Candy said, “If you don’t help me, I’ll expose your identity as Xiu Luo to the entire internet!”
“Do as you please,” Zhang Yue said without looking back, “I’m not Xiu Luo anyway.”
“If you’re not, then why did you get so agitated just now?” White Rabbit Creamy Candy continued, “And I only called out Xiu Luo once, yet you turned around immediately!”
“If you’re not Xiu Luo, how did you know I was calling you?”
Zhang Yue stopped in his tracks.
At this moment, White Rabbit Creamy Candy ran up to Zhang Yue, her eyes as bright and clear as Night Pearls, looking at him earnestly, “Don’t worry! As long as you help me with this favor, I swear I won’t tell anyone about this! I promise!”
“What do you need?”
“I want you to take me to the Professionals Tournament! Just help me get through the city-level qualifiers!”
Zhang Yue chuckled lightly, “So it’s just about money.”
“Not entirely,” White Rabbit Creamy Candy said, “I want to prove myself!”
Zhang Yue looked at White Rabbit Creamy Candy’s level and said, “Reach Level 30 and sign up for the Professionals Tournament, then we’ll talk.”
“So, you agree?” White Rabbit Creamy Candy smiled happily and asked Zhang Yue, “Can I add you on Feixin?”
“Whatever.”
“I’ll find you when I reach Level 30!”
“Whatever.”
Zhang Yue walked away, leaving White Rabbit Creamy Candy behind.
Shortly after, he received a Feixin message: White Rabbit Creamy Candy has sent a friend request!
On her end, White Rabbit Creamy Candy eagerly watched the Feixin interface.
When she saw Zhang Yue accept her friend request, she was so happy she nearly jumped for joy!
Meanwhile, not far behind White Rabbit Creamy Candy, Liu Yao watched the scene with some frustration, “No way, the girl I had my eye on turns out to be my big brother’s little fangirl…”
“Well, whatever… that Cute and Adorable girl isn’t bad either, I’ll go ask her to be my girlfriend!”
“Hehe… Cute and Adorable, here I come!”
On the other side.
Zhang Yue returned to the Safe Zone at Holy Light Cemetery, opened the teleportation portal to the Otherworld, and moved from the Third World to the Fourth World.
With a mission to kill 120 Dark Dragons, he headed to the Level 31 Dark Mountains, located north of the Light Hall.
On the way, Zhang Yue opened Feixin and checked White Rabbit Creamy Candy’s Moments, only to find that she had set it to be visible for three days only!
“Could she be the one who sent the letter?” Zhang Yue pondered, as the letter he received yesterday morning also mentioned the Professionals Tournament.
Forget it, I’ll deal with it later!
City-level qualifiers are a piece of cake for Zhang Yue.
Soon, Zhang Yue arrived at the Dark Mountains.
With his two minions, the Dark Skeleton King and the Skeleton Warrior, he continued to slaughter Dark Dragons.
It took Zhang Yue just over an hour to kill 120 Dark Dragons.
Just as Zhang Yue was about to head back to turn in the mission.
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the sky behind him!
Zhang Yue turned around to see a large group of Light Tribe fire dragons flying towards the Dark Mountains!
At the same time, a system notification sounded in Zhang Yue’s ear:
“Ding~ Please note: Due to a triggered event on your map, congratulations on triggering a hidden opportunity. Would you like to upgrade the completed mission ‘Boosting Morale 2’ to the rare hidden mission ‘Crush the Darkness’?”
Goodness!
Luck is really on my side today!
In this situation, there’s no reason to refuse.
“Ding~ Congratulations on obtaining the hidden mission ‘Crush the Darkness.’ The mission difficulty has increased! The mission rewards have been upgraded!”
[Crush the Darkness] (Hidden Mission)
[Difficulty: 550]
[Description: A large force of black dragons has appeared in the ancient ruins north of the Light Hall. They are about to launch an attack on the Light Hall. Professionals, please cooperate with the Light Tribe dragons to eliminate all black dragons in the ruins.]
[Rewards: Experience Points+, Gold Coins+12, Lu Ji’s Trust+200, Random 3-Star Equipment+3, Selectable Skill Book+2, Elite Grade Pet Egg+3]
[Mission Time: 1 hour]
[Failure Penalty: Level -1, All Light Tribe NPC Trust -300 (Fail to eliminate all black dragons in the ancient ruins within the time limit, or die during the mission, will be considered mission failure)]
550 difficulty points!
Even higher than the hidden mission to hunt the Golden Skeleton King!
But Zhang Yue didn’t understand.
Because when he opened the map, he found that the “Ancient Ruins” mentioned in the mission was just a Level 32 wild area.
“Why is the mission difficulty so high for a Level 32 map?”
Before Zhang Yue could think more, the group of Light Tribe dragons had already flown over the Dark Mountains, heading towards the ancient ruins ahead!
Zhang Yue immediately left the Dark Mountains and headed towards the ancient ruins.
Soon.
When Zhang Yue arrived at the Level 32 ancient ruins, the Light Tribe and Dark Tribe dragons were already engaged in battle!
High in the sky, the dragons from both sides were spewing flames at each other.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
The intense dragon roars echoed continuously.
From time to time, a Light Tribe or Dark Tribe dragon would be killed and fall from the sky.
Without a word, Zhang Yue immediately joined the battle.
Taking the side of the Light Tribe, Zhang Yue launched attacks on the Dark Tribe dragons in the sky!
The Level 32 Dark Battle Dragons were stronger than the Level 31 Dark Dragons in the Dark Mountains!
But for Zhang Yue, it was not difficult.
Zhang Yue summoned the Dark Skeleton King and the Skeleton Warrior, instructing them to pick off the wounded Dark Dragons that had fallen.
Meanwhile, Zhang Yue acted as a magical artillery, bombarding all the Dark Dragons within his attack range indiscriminately!
With the cooperation of dozens of Light Tribe dragons, Zhang Yue quickly eliminated all the Dark Battle Dragons in the ancient ruins!
As the battle ended, Zhang Yue couldn’t help but feel a bit incredulous, “Could this 550 difficulty hidden mission really be this easy?”
Just as he finished speaking.
Roar——
Accompanied by a deafening dragon roar.
Three massive super Dark Dragons flew in from different directions.
They spewed scorching dragon flames from their mouths, instantly annihilating all the Light Tribe dragons in the sky!
Immediately after.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The three imposing Dark Dragons landed around Zhang Yue, encircling him.
When Zhang Yue saw their IDs, he had to admit: he had spoken too soon about the mission being easy…
The IDs of the three dragons were identical:
[Dark Battle Dragon Lord] (Level 35 Physical Type · Lord Monster)!
