I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means - Chapter 418

Chapter 418: Chapter 341: Chaos at Luminous Stone City_2

[Lonely for Drunkenness] shuddered at the words and, after a moment’s hesitation, still managed to hold on to his last bit of stubbornness.

Indeed, when there’s no danger, one must be cautious of the danger from brothers!

“Don’t you guys think that the Boditch Kingdom is completely rotten?”

“Those soldiers are utterly lawless, XXX is what they’re capable of.”

“I couldn’t stand it, so I went up and smashed that guy’s XX!”

[Invincible Scoundrel] said somberly, seemingly unsatisfied.

“Cut it out. If I hadn’t pulled you away in time, we would have been surrounded by those soldiers.”

“Soldiers are nothing to worry about, but those squad leaders count as elite NPCs, and we can’t beat them.”

[Shrimp and Turnip Stew] waved his hand dismissively and then turned to [Invincible Scoundrel] and said:

“Have you started to treat this as reality? It’s just a game, think of it as a cutscene.”

“But it’s too real, I really can’t stand it…”

[Invincible Scoundrel] sighed and rubbed his head.

“Indeed…”

Go to

[Lonely for Drunkenness] nodded, saying thoughtfully:

“Not just you, Lao Jian, I feel awful too. What’s the point of the game company making it this realistic, won’t it get banned?”

“Who knows, such a big company.”

[Shrimp and Turnip Stew] sheathed his cleaned longsword and chewed on the fried fish he had tossed into his mouth.

“If all else fails, let’s take out some of those soldiers and vent a bit!”

“It’s just a game, why play it in such a stifled way.”

“Have fun, if the equipment explodes, so be it. We’ll be getting new equipment in the next version anyway!”

“Oh ho!”

[Invincible Scoundrel] looked at [Shrimp and Turnip Stew] who had made the suggestion with surprise, slapped the table, and said:

“I never thought our strategist couldn’t hold back either, so you can’t stand it anymore, huh? And you were telling me off before?”

[Shrimp and Turnip Stew] shrugged his shoulders, unfazed by his friend’s teasing.

“So, what do you say, shall we make a big move?”

[Lonely for Drunkenness] perked up.

He was interested in this!

Grinding levels, crafting equipment, wasn’t it all to cause more trouble?

“In my opinion, we should…”

As [Shrimp and Turnip Stew] was about to plan meticulously, a figure in a black cloak appeared at the center of the Mercenary Tavern, his face seemingly veiled in a layer of grey mist, indistinct.

His voice was low, yet it reached the ears of everyone distinctly:

“I have a commission, wondering if you might be interested.”

[Invincible Scoundrel] and his two companions curiously looked over at this mysterious person.

The servant of the Mercenary Tavern was about to come over and stop this uninvited guest, as this did not conform to the Mercenary Guild’s procedure for commissioning tasks.

But just at that moment, an overwhelming aura of authority emanated from the figure in the black cloak, sweeping across the entire tavern.

The servant who wanted to intervene was suddenly frozen in place, and if one looked closely, one could notice his trembling body and the wetness spreading on his trousers.

Gold Level?

Many present realized the strength of the figure standing in the center, but due to the war, there were no Gold-level professionals stationed at the Mercenary Guild, leaving the cloaked figure unencumbered in his actions.

“The commission is this, make this city even more chaotic.”

“The payment… will be settled later!”

The cloaked figure chuckled softly, unconcerned with the servant who had collapsed behind him, pushed the door open, and walked out of the Mercenary Tavern.

Until the cloaked figure vanished, the tavern remained silent, the sudden events leaving many unable to react.

What just happened?

What was that strange Gold-level powerhouse doing, saying to make Luminous Stone City even more chaotic?

Must be joking, right?

While the surrounding mercenaries were confused and the servant was picking himself up to quickly send word, [Invincible Scoundrel] and his two friends were excited.

Because of the new system popup that had appeared in front of the three of them.

———–

[Silver Level Quest: Let’s Stir Up Luminous Stone City!]

[Quest Requirements: By any means necessary, disrupt the order of Luminous Stone City!]

[Quest Reward: Experience Points 10000 (will increase based on the degree of completion!)]

[Note: This is a necessary sacrifice before dawn! — Lis Kain]

———–

A new quest!

And it’s a Silver Level quest, too!

[Invincible Scoundrel] and his two friends exchanged glances, a hint of surprise in their eyes.

“Let’s go!”

[Shrimp and Turnip Stew] got up quickly and waved to [Invincible Scoundrel] and [Lonely for Drunkenness].

Although the two didn’t understand why Turnip was so excited, they followed him out of brotherly trust.

“What’s up, isn’t this perfect? We just took on a task that’s exactly what we were planning to do, right?”

[Invincible Scoundrel], running along, asked curiously.

In his view, this was like serendipity, why not plan it out right away!

“Didn’t you see the name in the mission information?”

[Shrimp and Turnip Stew] said without turning back.

“…Lis Kain, that name sounds familiar. What about it?”

[Invincible Scoundrel] pulled up the system panel to check.

“At the start of the server, that noble from the Feis Kingdom.”

[Shrimp and Turnip Stew] prompted, and then both of them remembered.

“I remember now, that important NPC with the Legendary Talent!”

[Invincible Scoundrel] realized, speaking with a touch of excitement.

“I remember after that, we haven’t heard any news about him. Are you sure it’s him?”
