An hour and a half later, outside the Goldfinch City, at the end of the side expedition, [Spider Cave].
A giant red spider boss, with a diameter of over three meters, curled up. It had already lost its vitality.
Su Yu stood next to the boss, checking its loot.
“[Spiderweb shoes], [Spider Print Gloves], [Fire Wand]… The [Fire Wand] dropped the first time, seems like lady luck loves a handsome face!”
Su Yu equipped the [Fire Wand IV15 (Excellent)] and showed a satisfied smile.
He came to challenge the expedition alone this time, firstly to use the “Loudspeaker”, and secondly for the 15 level magic wand dropped by the Spider Boss.
After all, he’s already level 18 but still using the 10-level [Desert Emperor Scepter]. It’s time for an equipment upgrade.
Moreover, he was lucky on his first time, the [Fire Wand] dropped.
Using [Point Star Hand] to upgrade it to epic level, the equipment properties became:
[Fire Wand IV15 (Epic) ] Magic Power+ 50
Intelligence+17 Magic Crit rate +5%
Fire attribute damage +20% (Epic upgrade bonus)
Equipment Introduction: On some websites, it might be displayed as [Fire xx Wand].
When Su Yu cleared the expedition, all online players received a game announcement:
[Server wide announcement: Player Nemesis successfully clears the 15-level 5-person expedition [Spider Cave]. As the first player to clear the 15-level expedition, you are given a random rare level 15 Mage class equipment! We hope others will catch up soon…]
[Server wide announcement: … ]
[Server wide announcement: …]
This server-wide announcement was sent out three times.
However, compared to the previous two times, it didn’t cause much of a reaction from the players.
They were absolutely shocked when Nemesis cleared the 5-level expedition alone;
A little surprised when he cleared the 10-level expedition alone;
Now, clearing the 15-level expedition alone… they’ve become used to it.
It’s 1:30am now, not many players in the newbie village leveling area.
But when they heard the game announcement, they all smiled at each other:
“Nemesis boss is at it again, clearing the expedition alone.”
“Normal! After all, he’s level 18 already, it’s normal that he clears the 15-level expedition.”
“I bet 100 bucks! We’ll hear it again at level 20.”
“No one will take your bet, isn’t this already a sure thing?”
“Thank god Nemesis only conquers one expedition at each level, if he were to clear all expeditions at the same level, the top guilds would cry!”
“Hah, indeed!”
The players chatted while killing monsters to level up. Soon after, Su Yu’s voice came through to the players:
“Cough cough, hello everyone! It’s me again.”
Upon hearing Su Yu’s voice, the players in the leveling area all had smiles on their faces:
“We know, we know, it’s you again.”
“Master Nemesis, what’s happened today?”
“Spider Cave? How many Demoiselles does the Spider Boss have?”
“Boss, you level up too quickly; leveling up without standard practice, our hearts are crying tears!”
The leveling area was filled with jovial air, almost becoming a gathering spot for memes.
But after what Su Yu said next, many players stopped laughing:
“If everyone can get to level 10 before 1:30pm tomorrow, and have a gameplay time of an hour, I have a welfare gift for you all!”
“Come to the Goldfinch City town square to take up my task at 13:30. I will provide a 3000 experience points task to each of you, but only for the first 1000 people, first come first serve!”
Su Yu stopped the “Loudspeaker” there.
But after hearing him, every player’s eyes widened, wearing a “did I hear that right?” expression.
The players looked at each other incredulously.
“What did you mean by ‘take your task’? Can you assign tasks now?!”
“Are you a player or an NPC?”
“Did you level up so quickly before because you assigned high experience tasks to yourself?”
“Filthy designer finally stopped pretending! ”
“Boycott starts from me!”
“Right, boycott Nemesis!”
“We can’t let Nemesis continue his reign, we players barely have any leeway anymore!”
The players were furious and demanded to boycott Nemesis.
It’s too much! Now he can even assign high experience tasks, what’s next?
But someone suddenly asked a weak question amongst the players:
“You can boycott Nemesis, but will you accept his task tomorrow afternoon?”
The players momentarily fell quiet.
After a while.
“Of course I’ll accept! Why wouldn’t I?”
“That’s 3000 experience points! 30% of level 10’s experience, I definitely won’t miss it.”
“Only the first 1000 will have a chance, it seems I need to hurry.” “Damn! I was planning to sleep, but I guess I’ll continue leveling.”
Despite the complaints, the players’ actions spoke louder.
Any player who had the chance to accept the task was now grinding levels even harder, preparing to go to town as soon as possible.
Some even set alarm clocks after logging off, this is a task they can’t miss!
Meanwhile, in the newbie village number six, Wolf King Valley.
Zhan Tianjian and four of his teammates were leveling here. After hearing Nemesis’s message, he suddenly burst out laughing:
“Hahaha!”
His laughter was like Mr.Cao laughing epically in the old version of “Romance of the Three Kingdoms” at Huarong Road.
Bumblebee, who was standing behind him, asked: “Boss, what are you laughing at? Should we participate in Nemesis’ task tomorrow afternoon?”
“I’m laughing at how reckless and foolish Nemesis is, of course we aren’t participating in that task!”
“Why?” Tom looked puzzled: “That’s 30% of level 10’s experience!” “I’ve seen through it all!” Zhan Tianjian declared confidently:
“Nemesis leveled to 11 before going to town from the newbie village, which means there must be some method in the newbie village to skip straight to 11 from level 10, maybe even the reason he leveled up six times at once was related to this method!”
“Now, he’s using a high experience task to attract us to town, surely because he doesn’t want us to find this method, so he can secure his advantage in levels!”
“Oh!” Overlord Tiger’s eyes lit up: “Thank goodness you figured it out so quickly boss, otherwise we would’ve been fooled by him!”
“Who else can do it besides your boss?” Zhan Tianjian bragged: “Let’s continue leveling, after level 10 we’ll start looking for hidden tasks in the village.”
“Alright boss!”
In the newbie village number two, Wolf King Valley, Snow Leopard was also leveling up with his teammates.
It was now half past one in the morning, Mr.Zhong and the others had already logged on.
Distance equals truth: “Mr.Zhong, are you going to participate in Elder Zhang’s task tomorrow afternoon?”
Snow Leopard smiled: “Of course! How could I miss such an event?”
“But you have a task tomorrow morning!” Distance equals truth looked worried: “And you haven’t slept for three days, haven’t you? You’ll die of exhaustion!”
Snow Leopard waved his hand indifferently: “Don’t worry, I can handle it, I won’t die…”
Before Snow Leopard could finish his sentence, he suddenly disappeared, as if the game had kicked him offline.
This usually happens when the game detects that the player’s condition is really unsuitable for continuing the game.
Everything happened so quickly, without any warning, leaving the four team members dumbfounded.
“Mr. Zhong-
Not long after, a mournful howl echoed in the Wolf King Valley..
