Chapter 40: Kream's Trial

  "So what do you plan to do then?"

  "This Wind City is indeed a place where dragons and tigers hide, the Royal Guard is unexpectedly so hard to get in, it seems I still need to go back and increase my strength for a few more years!"

  Kreim's face was filled with helplessness, and I could understand his emotions. Originally the number one in the small town, he had thought of going to Tianfeng City to make a name for himself, but didn't expect to hit a wall as soon as he arrived. It was normal to want to go back!

  "I thought for a moment and said: 'Is there any requirement that says you have to go alone? If not, I can help you.'"

  Kreim's eyes lit up and he said, "The task gave me a time limit of one hour, and in that hour I can only kill around 500. Do you have a way to help me kill another 500 within that hour?"

  I roughly calculated that there are 3600 seconds in an hour, so it should take about 7 seconds to deal with one monster. If the monsters aren't too difficult, I shouldn't have a problem. However, my attack power is much lower than Kuremu's, and if he can only kill 500 of them, then I don't think I'll be able to do it unless I call over Kohane and the others!

  Thinking of this, I immediately said: "Kreim, let's go and try it out. I'll ask a few more friends to come and help!"

  Kreum's eyes widened slightly in surprise, and he immediately said: "Really? Then I'm counting on you!"

  "Ding! You have accepted the quest 【Kreem's Trial】!" (Quest difficulty: C1)

  Mission content: Help Kreum complete the Royal Guard's trial. You must kill at least 500 monsters within 1 hour!

  Drink, unexpectedly the difficulty is C1, a task that's even higher than killing the Bronze Equipment level BOSS, this is going to be a bit tricky!

  Anyway, I'll give it a shot!

  "Xiaoyu, come and do the task now, difficulty C1!"

  "But I'm not going, I want to level up with Xue Er and the others!"

  I: “......”

  It's all over! I just met her for a day and she was kidnapped. It seems that "a girl is not to be kept at home" is really true!

  So he sent a message to Lin Xueyi: "Beauty, are you busy?"

  "Busy!"

  "You're busy with what?"

  "Busy chatting!"

  With a sigh of helplessness, he said: "I've received a task with difficulty C1, want to come and do it together?"

  "What's wrong with you? Why don't you just do it?"

  "Tianfeng City Teleportation Array gathering, also call Xiaoyu and Yunqing over!"

  "Right away!"

  "Liu Yu, how's the delivery of your letter?"

  "No ideas at all, having sent over a hundred letters, I've become numb to it. I think with my talent for delivering mail, not becoming a postman would be such a waste!"

  "Awesome!"

  Then asked: "I received a C1 difficulty task, do you want to come over and finish it together?"

  "Awesome, difficulty C1, you're so sharp, able to take on such a task, I've been taking A1A2 tasks all along!"

  Nonsense, if delivering messages is harder than killing the BOSS, who would still go deliver them?!

  "When are we going?"

  "Right away!"

  "That won't do, I'm now more than an hour's journey away from Tianfeng City, and with the letter, I can't teleport and will have to run back!"

  I: “......”

  Forget it then, we'll all be done by the time you get back!

  "Never mind, let's just go ourselves, you can deliver the message slowly by yourself!"

  Turn off the communicator, and soon Xiaoyu, Sanlian, and Tong Nian appeared on the transmission array. The appearance of three beautiful women instantly caused a stir among the surrounding players. In this day and age, many people have seen beauties, but such stunning women are rarely seen, and it's even rarer to see three appear at once!

  I immediately formed them into a team and shared the task, so that after completing the task, they can also get rewards!

  Kreim said, "Follow me, the Royal Guard is where the elite of Tianfeng City are. Anyone who wants to join must complete the trial, a man-made space that is said to have been laid down by a god-level demon master thousands of years ago!"

  The four of us listened carefully, a god-level demon master should be that kind of legendary figure who can destroy the world with just one move, I don't know if players will have the chance to possess such power, but thinking about it probably won't happen, if a player's single skill can wipe out an entire city, then the game is doomed!

  Yiru Xue stared at me for a long time before suddenly asking: "Wuxin, confess honestly, did you get your hands on some good equipment again?"

  Wow, this girl's eyes are actually so venomous!

  "Just then, someone said: 'We just killed a Black Iron level BOSS up ahead and it dropped a pair of Black Iron leg guards!'"

  "Dizzy, you've been gone for half a day and went to kill the BOSS, no way, from now on I have to follow you to level up!"

  I couldn't help but feel frustrated, as if the BOSS was that easy to kill. Just earlier, a Black Iron-level BOSS had encountered several members of the Light Wind Family, and the next BOSS had even sparked an all-out war among several major forces in Tianfeng City! Who wouldn't want to kill the BOSS? But you need both opportunity and strength to do so!

  "Change the subject immediately and ask: 'Where are you guys leveling up? I think you've all leveled up!'"

  Xiaoyu has reached level 19, Xue Se Yun Qing is at level 17, and Yi Ru Xue is already at level 20. At this point, he had also equipped himself with level 20 gear, so his attributes must have increased significantly!

  Yiru Xue replied, "I killed a level 22 wild boar, but its drop rate was really poor. Some of them didn't even drop a single copper coin, it's just too pathetic!"

  I nodded, the drop rate of ordinary monsters in the game is really not good, just killing them can't even earn enough gold coins to buy potions. However, rare monsters and BOSSes will drop a lot of gold coins, which attracts many players to specifically hunt for them. Unfortunately, these monsters have extremely high attributes, and if you're not careful, they can easily send you back to town, resulting in loss of level and equipment, making it even more frustrating.

  After leaving the city gate, they walked for about half an hour before Kreim stopped in front of a transmission array. This transmission array looked quite old, but despite its age, it showed no signs of collapsing, apparently having been imbued with a considerable amount of magic! This transmission array was left behind by that god-level mage back then, and it wouldn't break down so easily; otherwise, that god-level mage would be too incompetent!

  Kreim said, "As soon as you enter this teleportation array, you will see those thousand monsters. You can only enter after receiving the task scroll, and you must be in a team to enter!"

  It's a good thing I didn't call Liu Yu over just now, otherwise there would be another person who couldn't get in and that would be even more troublesome!

  I joined the team and immediately checked Kreim's level and attributes. His level was still 20, but I couldn't see his attributes anymore. Kreim took out a scroll and entered the transmission array directly, so we four people followed in a row. However, as soon as we went in, we were greatly shocked!

  A multitude of monsters before my eyes, the entire map is filled with them. 20-level Forest Bandits, their attributes are quite good!

  Bandit of the Dense Forest

  Level: 20

  Blood Gas: 1500

  Attack: 65-119

  Defense: 50

  Compared to the previous 20 levels, the attributes of the mountain forest giant bear are much stronger. However, after our several attribute increases, it's not a difficult problem to fight against it, especially with Xue Se Yun Qing, we don't have to worry about blood and gas issues!

  Kreim has started killing monsters, his long sword falling heavily, the blood bar of the dense forest bandit suddenly emptied by half. As expected, it's quite easy to kill monsters as a level 20 bronze-grade BOSS!

  However, he also said that within an hour, he could only kill more than 500, and the rest would have to rely on us. We also had to hurry up, so I immediately said: "Let's go!"

  A summoning call brought out Xiao Zi, who charged forward and locked onto a monster, directly unleashing a sweeping slash that sent the monster's blood flying by half. Immediately after, Xiao Zi unleashed a claw strike, causing the Bloodthirsty Mountain Bandit's health bar to drop once again!

  The monster didn't have time to roar, a beautiful female warrior appeared beside it, one sword fell down, and directly struck the monster into white light, it was Yiru Xue!

  "This monster isn't much either!"

  With a faint smile like snow, you certainly didn't feel it, the monster's blood was all knocked down by me and only one thread was left to be killed by you, have the ability to try it yourself?

  Yiru Xue immediately killed another, sweeping across thousands of troops + heavily striking and hitting down, unfortunately her attack was a bit worse than mine, but she still took out around 900 points of the monster's blood gas, which is quite good!

  Xiaoyu also rushed up, after switching to the 15th-level Qing Song sword, Xiaoyu's attack power had also increased a lot. At this time, she was no weaker than Yiruxue. The two beauties took turns using their skills and directly killed the monster. The monster didn't even have a chance to fight back. I watched in secret shock, indeed these days beautiful women are all violent!

  But at this time, the Snow-colored Cloud Qing beside him was somewhat depressed: "I said you guys can't kill so decisively, at least let the monster lose some blood and energy, otherwise there's nothing for me to do!"

  Three people listen and feel ashamed!

  The monster's attack power is not low, equivalent to a 20-level full-strength swordsman's attack. Of course, with my over 130 points of defense, I can withstand it without any pressure. However, Xiaoyu and Yiruxue's defenses are a bit lower than mine. Fortunately, Xuecai Yunqing has now reached level 17, and her healing output has increased significantly. With the two of them constantly drinking low-level life recovery potions, killing is not tiring at all!

  But in that case, killing 500 in an hour is not a problem, it seems a bit unfair to the difficulty of C1!

  Just as I was suspicious, the problem finally appeared!

  "Whoa, I'm dizzy! How did we attract so many monsters at once? We're done for, bro, hurry up and help me out!"

  Only to see Xiao Yu fleeing in a panic, with four monsters chasing after her. With the help of medicine and treatment, Xiao Yu can handle one monster alone, but taking on four at once is undoubtedly suicidal. So I rushed up with Xiao Zi, and in one breath, we took down all four monsters, saving Xiao Yu. But looking ahead, my heart sank!

  All the monsters in front are gathered together, how can I kill them?
