Chapter 417 Expedition To The Frozen Region: Almira's Chain Of Quests
"Whew, thankfully, these doggos are already slowing their attacks but they are still pretty much annoying as hell," Iron slams down his shield to the snow after the last attack stopped.
"Don't overdo it brother, as much as we wanted to keep them at bay, they will keep on appearing as long as the corpse of this giant turtle is still here," Topaz pat her brother's back.
"Yeah, yeah. I know what you are talking about, still, that is a lot of Experience we got just by coming here. We might have even surpassed most players in the mainland."
Due to how they keep on fighting wave after waves of those hungry hyenas every time they attack, it isn't so strange they managed to get high of a level and even though many of them are currently in one party and they share the exp among themselves, they are still leveling very fast than normal, it is terrifying.
Currently, everyone is sitting on level 124. They have already surpassed Bladeheart's level but they also understood that it was normal that Bladeheart would be left behind in levels due to how his class is different compares to theirs but no one would believe that most of them were sitting below level 100 before they arrived here except for some of them who are already in level 100 and above.
And all they just did to arrive at that level is drive away hyenas and nothing else. It was an insane amount of experience they received and it was more experience compared to the experience they received from clearing an abyss dungeon. It was clear that the two have a huge discrepancy in experience gain. Still, it is still a blessing that they are able to grow this much without encountering a very huge amount of hurdles like an unkillable monster or monsters similar to how they need a lot of effort to take it down like how they did against the Mistfall Turtle of the Damned.
Without any Snow Hyenas attacking left behind alive, the work is proceeding smoothly. Almira also received quite a good large chunk of the shell from the carcass of the Mistfall Turtle of the Damned. Since she can't leave the site due to how she needs to instruct the people on how to mine all of the necessary items, she walks toward the group and decided to give them a new task.
"Thanks to all of you. With no more Snow Hyenas, I will be giving you guys a new task at hand and it is much more difficult than your previous task of defending the soldiers from the attack of the Snow Hyenas. But first, here are your rewards, I made sure to think what best items you guys needed the most right now."
Almira pulled out her dimensional storage and pulled out different kinds of equipment. And compared to the equipment that Bladeheart has given to them, the equipment that Almira has handed to them is much better in quality and rarity too. Bladeheart's weapon rarity is all labeled as Very Rare while the reward they received is on Unique Rarity. Although it was just one piece, it is already a big ramp up if they equip it right now. Although it will get replaced eventually with a piece of better equipment with better stats, this is already a huge thing.
"Are you sure these are our rewards? These are all so high in rarity I doubt we will be replacing them anytime soon!" Dolly was reluctant.
"Of course. My disciple has given you the equipment you guys are wearing right? Then it is only much better if you use the rewards as well as that will enhance the amount of power you guys will gain after equipping it. Besides, if he is getting better in his blacksmithing skills, you guys will receive a much better reward than this. Not only that but these items I have given out will also allow you guys to perform in a much better way to efficiently do your jobs. It is still a good win for you all," Almira yawned after saying all of that. She seemed a little bit sleepy.
"So you are saying that we have a new task. What is it?" Bladeheart's father asked.
"Alright, since we are already ready to do the next job, here, I will issue the next one. Be sure to double-check it and see whether you can all handle the quest or not since I am not going to force you all to handle this quest. But if you do, make sure you are all prepared."
Once Almira mentioned her warning, the quest notification pops up before them and they didn't expect to see the content of the quest that they are about to receive.
[Almira's Errand (Extreme Difficulty)
Note: This quest requires the players to finish the quest continuously without a break for the time is short. Not only that but for every chain, the quest will get harder. It is a non-mandatory quest so even if you have chosen not to partake, the only thing you will be missing out on is the reward.
Requirements: None
Info: To finish the items that are needed for the expedition, Almira has given your group a series of group tasks that are needed to be done with utmost urgency. There will be no breaks here and every quest has a time limit to complete, therefore, it is advised to remain online straight for this quest. Players who will partake in this quest will automatically activate the emergency system that will allow the users to enter hibernation mode to play the game for long periods of time until the end of the current quest without eating and resting. This will help the user remain unharmed for a prolonged period. Nourishment will be immediately supplied to users who partake in this quest. It is advised to log out after accepting the quest and prepare before proceeding with the quest.
Will you accept the quest?
Yes/No
A quest that they needed to stay online for long periods of time without the need to eat food or water or even do what nature needed them to do. All of them are going to have to do this.
Everyone looked at each other to see what they are going to do for this and if it was wise to quit before they end up not being able to do it. But before they can even discuss the next move, Dolly and Harmless Sparrow quickly accepted the quest without a moment of hesitation.
"Wha- are you sure you guys are up to this?!" Hagane seemed to be worried seeing Dolly accepted it.
"No worries. I have a quest similar to this before where I needed to stay online for extended periods of time, it will be alright. It doesn't feel that different anyways so no harm will happen. It will just be a regular good ol' quest that will be done," Dolly gives out a peace sign.
"Yes, it isn't bad at all like you all think of, it is indeed pretty reliable and you just think that you have just a very long rest. It doesn't have any side effects and I can Dolly can testify to my claims as the two of us have experienced it," Harmless Sparrow explained.
Everyone look reluctant until Bladeheart's parents took the first step and accepted the quest. Hagane was stumped as the two adults were the very first to accept the quest out of them who are hesitant to accept it.
"We never tried doing that before, have we?" Bladeheart's father grinned like he is planning something.
"Yeah, this sounds exciting. Gaming for how many hours and days straight without eating might sound a bit bad but that does sound challenging and fun."
(A/N: Don't try this in real life, balance your gaming lifestyle and your regular lifestyle, you will just ruin your body if you do things like this!)
The others are also having second thoughts before they all clicked yes.
"My brother will agree with me to continue with the game so it will be fine," Sigma sighed and looked at Mr. Teddy who just nodded without saying any word.
"Big brother will not be mad since he said before he experienced things like this so, he will understand if we explain it to him," Topaz looked at Iron and nodded together.
"It's nothing bad, and we are good to go, so it is fine, right? Let's hop on in this quest after we have done the quest. According to the quest, the timer will start once we depart to look for our first task so let's get this chance to have a good sleep, a good meal, and finish all of the things we have yet to do. Maybe also give warning to everyone in your household about you to stay in the game for a while to avoid them getting worried sick of you," Chase suggested.
"That is for the best. We don't want anyone to get worried about us so be sure to explain properly to those who don't know."
"I already sent a message to Bladeheart but I seemed to cannot contact him," Dolly scratches her head.
"He was already up and about earlier, he went with Queen Tanya and the others for some sort of quest so perhaps he is in an area where communication is not allowed. Anyways, we can just write up something for him in the real world. Let's log out and prepare ourselves for later. We will meet here after 12 hours then," Sigma suggested.
Everyone nodded in agreement and they all log back out of the game. With a quest line that will have them need to keep their focus entirely dedicated to it, everyone is now getting ready for a quest they will never forget especially since this is a quest that they will not receive Bladeheart's guidance.
