Chapter 258: Come Again



“We have accepted the task of finding the command center,” Claw Mark said.

Li Yao exclaimed, “It seems the quartermaster wasn’t lying after all. Many are taking this task!”

“Brother, you took the task too?” Claw Mark grimaced. “This task is stumping a lot of people. I initially took it because the reward looked good, but I stepped right into a trap. I have no choice but to continue it.”

“Huhuhu, I’m a master of tasks, and I’ve already made some progress. Join our team and we’ll ensure you complete the task,” suggested Pet Elf.

Li Yao shook his head, “I have to complete an important task right now and can’t join your team. Here’s what I suggest, I’ll give you some hints since you’re also on this task. When you have found them, I reckon you would have almost completed the task. At that point, we can solve this riddle together and complete the task. How does that sound?”

This task required much legwork. Seeing the attractive reward, Li Yao initially planned to take it up while revealing The Mysterious Eye’s secrets, considering it a sightseeing level-up.

Having met this decent bunch of folks, he thought of striking a friendship.

“Bro, you have solid clues?” Claw Mark was surprised. After all, they had only found a tiny lead after studying all night in the library and it wasn’t even confirmed.

“Yes, it goes like this. The area used to belong to a natural demi-god. One of the leaders of the Elves was the demi-god’s disciple. From what I know, demi-gods can create subspaces similar to Emerald Dream. It’s my belief that this so-called command center resides within such a subspace,” explained Li Yao.

“Yes, yes, that’s what I believe too,” Pet Elf nodded furiously in agreement.

Claw Unfeeling grumbled, “Bragging again, he’s just guessing it’s hidden. He knows nothing about any ‘subspace’.”

“Unfeeling, shut your mouth,” Pet Elf glared at Claw Unfeeling before turning to Li Yao with a smile, “Master, do go on.”

Li Yao nodded and explained, “In actuality, these subspaces created by demi-gods are of low-grade and can only exist as an attachment to the main space, sustaining the ecosystem of the subspace requires a connection with the main space and the support of special symbols. You need to find specific trees, their characteristics are like this…”

After Li Yao made a brief description of the trees, he added, “I’ve marked the places on your map where, I believe, you will be able to find those trees if you spend a bit of time. However, it’s quite dangerous, so if you don’t want to go too deep, we can simply forget what I’ve said.”

“No way, we will not give up, right, brother?” Pet Elf said.

Claw Mark gave a wry smile. His sister was resolved on always completing a task. Well, he thought, they were here for entertainment, so everything was all right in the end. He then agreed, “Alright, thanks for your help, bro.”

“Not at all, find a few locations, then rub this substance onto the tree trunks, here.” Li Yao handed Claw Mark five test tubes of special potions. “After that, you can private message me and I’ll take the next step.”

As he said this, Li Yao sent friend requests, which they all accepted.

“Sure, we’ll let you know as soon as we’ve done that,” said Claw Mark while storing away the potions.

“Right, I’m off then.” Li Yao greeted and set off.

“Let’s move too. Otherwise, once they resurrect, it’ll be trouble,” said Claw Mark.

“Amazing player, not even picking up the gear.” Claw Unfeeling murmured.

“Don’t act smart after getting a bargain. It’s all just thieves’ gear after all,” Pet Elf snapped back.

“Hehe,” they didn’t stand on ceremony and picked up the equipment anyway.

“Holy crap, I checked and this Prairie Fire is really famous. There are lots of videos related to him,” said Pet Elf while on the move, “He’s really amazing.”

“No shit, he’s got so many world announcements and first kills, did you really need to check?” Claw Mark retorted.

“I wondered why the name Prairie Fire sounded so familiar,” Pet Elf exclaimed in excitement, “There’s a post on the forum saying he founded a guild and being such a skilled and decent guy, how about we join Starfire Guild?”

Claw Mark laughed bitterly, “You really can dream! It’s not as easy as just simply joining. They only accept elite professions. Hurry up, let’s finish this task and then I need to work on my elite task. I can’t keep up with your pace.”

“Yes, after this we start the elite task and then join the guild!” Pet Elf’s determination was unwavering.

The other three exhaled in exasperation. Little Missy was quite the character.

Fifteen minutes later, they returned to the location of the previous battle.

The thieves resurrected themselves, sitting on the ground, eating and drinking to recover their health.

Suddenly, arrow rain fell striking them, while assassin number 5, who was trying to enter stealth mode, noticed a mark on his head.

Scatter!

Li Yao pulled the trigger, and three arrows landed on the three stunned thieves who were caught in the first wave of arrow rain.

They had just resurrected and their health was not fully restored. After suffering the damage from the arrow rain and Li Yao’s scatter shot, the three thieves were all dead yet again.

“Prairie Fire, are you really going to end us?” Seeing Li Yao turn his gaze towards him, number 5 quickly shouted.

“Don’t act like I don’t know your rules. I’ve been on your kill list for a while, whatever you are my enemy anyway. What’s wrong with protecting your body?” Li Yao shot another arrow.

Shadow Mantle!

Vanish!

“Attempting to stealth in front of my face is pointless,” Li Yao remained in his original position, swiftly shooting another arrow.

Pfft!

The arrow seemed to hang in the air, before blood splattered and assassin number 5 came into view. He was as horrified as before, having no clue as to how Li Yao could accurately guess his direction and hit his throat after he had vanished.

Ever since entering Dark Grey Valley, he had killed too many players. Thieves’ stealth, Shadow Mantle, Vanish were all dominant in their previous games; even elite players were sent directly on their way by him.

However, when Li Yao came into the picture, it seemed he himself had become the bygone thief and they had become his prey.

Li Yao sneered, simply going into stealth doesn’t mean one is immune from damage.

Suddenly, Li Yao released an Arcane Torrent!

However, as the magic erupted, no thief appeared and Li Yao frowned. The one he had originaly nailed with a spear should have resurrected a long time ago, but he had yet not shown up.

“Spineless guy.”

Li Yao waited on guard for a while but didn’t feel a single hint of danger. He called back Death God 4000 and the thief still didn’t appear until he had gone far away.

“Boss, why did you stop me? I had the chance to kill him,” said assassin number 15 discontentedly. “Dying instantly last time was an accident.”

“Kill my ass, you’re just seeking death. Wait an hour before resurrecting, damn, my military contribution. I didn’t even want to kill here, no one’s paying me either. If it weren’t for the elite task…” Assassin number 5 grumbled. His elite task required him to kill people for military contribution, however…
