Online Game: Super Beast Tamer

Chapter 431: Forced Change of Racing Plan (Subscription Request~)

An Yi changed her equipment and continued to follow Su Ming to kill monsters. When the task progress reached 900 million, An Yi once again proposed to challenge herself. With the protection of armor, An Yi's flexibility decreased, but her main feature was her power and strength. She relied on brute force and abundant magic power to sweep away everything. After half a day of fighting, she had mastered some skills, so this challenge was successful.

At night, the sea water becomes dark, and some fluorescent algae floating above emit light. From time to time, players can be seen pushing aside the seaweed and darting past, like birds in the night sky.

Su Ming completed the task and received experience rewards. Before parting with An Yi, he asked:

"Will you continue tomorrow?"

An Yi lifted up her steel mask. Her face was slightly red due to the long battle. She smiled and said:

"No, I think I have mastered the method of fighting. I am not afraid of monsters anymore."

"Don't be proud." Su Ming said.

"I know, Master." An Yi's hand brushed across the storage scales near his waist, took out a black-purple gem from it and handed it to Su Ming, saying, "Master, you have worked hard today. This starry sky gemstone will be my gift to you as your disciple."

Su Ming took the gem, which shone with an epic light, and he happily accepted it.

Epic gems are much more valuable than epic equipment. Su Ming has seen many pieces of epic equipment, but has only seen epic gems twice.

Tongfa's Star Gem (Epic, LV45):
+300 physique, +300 spirit
+10% pet and summon damage, +12% skill cooldown reduction

Self-Constellation: Passive: Choose yourself or your pet (summoned creature) as the main star. Other "stars" can provide additional bonuses to the main star.

Falling Star: Active: Each "star" launches a star towards a location in turn, each star causes 6000 true damage and clamps the enemy for 0.5 seconds. Cooldown: 90 seconds.

Available locations: weapons, headdresses, amulets, badges

This gem has a very strange skill, similar to a formation. Su Ming needs to try it to know.

The only equipment on Su Ming that is suitable for embedding it is weapons.

"Master, since you have accepted the gift, I have a small request and I want your help." An Yi said.

Su Ming knew that the system would not give such a good reward just for the "experience gain" task, so this was considered an advance payment of the reward for the next task.

"What help?" Su Ming asked.

An Yi raised his eyebrows and said seriously:

"I am going to drive the Naga King away completely. So Master, please accompany me to the Naga King's palace."

Su Ming accepted the task prompt from the system. From the task introduction, it can be seen that this task was a legacy task left after the "River of Time" guild opened the dungeon. They did not have sufficient conditions at that time, so it was not triggered.

The mission must be carried out in a dungeon of Abyss difficulty. You can ask for help, but after bringing An Yi, the original 15-person dungeon will have to be reduced to 5 people.

Without a small team, the difficulty would definitely increase a lot. It would be a question whether one could win or not. Moreover, Su Ming had to help the guild in a race this week, so he was a little conflicted and did not accept the task immediately.

"An Yi, why do you suddenly want to drive away the Naga King?" Su Ming asked. He recalled what had happened recently, and the only thing that could prompt An Yi to make a decision was probably the "theft of the crown."

Su Ming continued to ask:

"Is it related to the crown? The crown was taken away by the Naga King?"

An Yi shook her head, then nodded. She and Su Ming had been killing monsters for a whole day, and Su Ming had done an excellent job in completing the mission. So now her favorability had reached the point where she could confide in Su Ming. After hesitating for a while, An Yi confessed the matter about Peko to Su Ming:

"It's not the Naga King, but it's related to him. It's my sister Peko. She fell in love with the Naga King. In fact, the last time my mother was kidnapped, it was my sister who provided the information. She originally wanted to play a trick with the Naga King and exchange herself for my mother so that she could leave the Mermaid Village. But suddenly a group of adventurers came..."

Su Ming didn't expect that there was such a hidden secret here. He frowned and asked:

"According to you, the Naga King is a good man?"

"No, he is a bad guy. He gained his power and territory through massacres," An Yi said. "If he was a good guy, Peko wouldn't have resorted to such a desperate measure."

At this point, An Yi sighed a little sadly:

"Even though he's a bad guy, I just like him. Love is something that's really hard to explain... After the adventurers came and thwarted Peko's plan, I thought my sister would give up, but I didn't expect that I saw Peko sneak into my mother's bedroom and take the crown away.

I don't know what she is up to this time.

Master, I obviously have great power, but I couldn't help at all last time. This time I can't watch my sister do stupid things and hurt others, so please help me... I've given you my favorite gem."

"Isn't this a ceremony of apprenticeship?"

"Well." An Yi pulled Su Ming's hand and shook it, saying coquettishly, "I don't care. Master took my gemstone and has to help me."

"I understand." Su Ming held An Yi down to stop her from shaking, and then said, "The Naga King's palace has many guards. We can't defeat them with just the two of us. I'll contact other adventurers first, and then I'll notify you to come along. Is that okay?"

"Yeah." An Yi nodded like a puppy and said, "But we have to do it as soon as possible. Peko is away from home for longer and longer periods of time. Also... Nagula is also doing dangerous things. She has a much worse temper than me. I have to solve everything before the two of them do something stupid."

An Yi is usually dull, but she knows a lot about family matters and she loves her family very much. Although she is timid and crybaby, she is indeed a qualified eldest daughter.

Su Ming also understood An Yi's desire to protect her family at this moment, and he assured An Yi:
"I'll let you know as soon as possible."

----

After separating from An Yi, Su Ming contacted the person in charge of the race, who was also his old friend "Butterfly Whisper".

After joining the "Miracle Wilderness", Butterfly Whisper soon became the guild's dungeon leader. The team she led conquered many dungeons, large and small.

There are many of these non-mainline dungeons in "Destiny", and they are the main gameplay content for ordinary players. Many members of gold-making studios spend more than ten hours a day wandering between three or four dungeons to collect materials.

Treating "copy production" as a job is also designed based on the operating models of several virtual online games that have performed well before.

Since the "Fate" game coins are directly connected to real currency, the income is more stable. This time, it absorbed a lot of idle people in society, and also diluted the money of some rich people.

There are also people who make a lot of money like Venus, but she is different from ordinary rich people, she has a background.

Although Venus' success has little to do with her background, there are some people with similar backgrounds who have also made money. They usually pave the way with money and power. Venus only used money in the initial stage...

In these games, there is an unwritten rule that whoever completes the copy first has the power to control it.

If you can control it, you can naturally fight for it. An individual usually cannot keep it, so it will usually be sold to a guild.

A guild that can control many copies is a reflection of its strength. Only when it controls enough points can it attract passers-by to join. This is the most important guild benefit.

The friction between guilds in the later period also basically revolved around "copy".

Of course, the income from these small dungeons is definitely not as good as the main dungeons. After Su Ming made money, he bought all kinds of materials and equipment directly, so he rarely went to brush. If he hadn't met Venus, he might have become a worker, playing dungeons every day to support Xiao Hei...

"Sister Butterfly, are you busy? I have something to talk to you about." When Su Ming sent a message to Butterfly Whisper, he also sent her a screenshot of the task introduction that had just been triggered.

Butterfly Whisper did not reply, and Su Ming continued typing to explain these screenshots:

"This is the quest I just triggered. So I want to play the Abyss difficulty dungeon in advance, so I came to discuss it with you in advance. An Yi is very powerful. She is basically an epic BOSS without skills. If she replaces a team, the speed should not be slow. Will the results of leading the NPC to play be recognized by the media?"

After Su Ming typed this message to Butterfly Whisper, a typing prompt appeared near Butterfly Whisper's avatar, and Butterfly Whisper replied soon.

"I agree. But I can't make the decision on this matter alone. I have to ask Jian Xilai. I'll start a discussion group and invite you to join."

Butterfly Whispering started a discussion group and invited Jian Xilai to join.

Compared to other guilds with various capital injections and image-building presidents, Jian Xilai himself is the biggest capital, and Miracle Wilderness is his private property. When discussing matters concerning the guild's honor, he alone has the final say.

Guilds like "The Great Emperor" and "River of Time" must gather at least four or five managers to discuss...

Entering the discussion group, Jian Xilai listened to the reports of Su Ming and Hudie Xiyu and said:
"Then let Spore fight with Team 2, and find someone from Team 1 to take Spore's place."

"No one in the guild can match Spore's output. Team One's recent fighting style is specialized based on Spore's pet. The traditional fighting style is a bit rusty, and the coordination is not as good as Team Two. If you want to complete the mission and race at the same time, it's best to let Team One follow Su Ming and bet on the strength of the mission NPC, and then you can spend money to upgrade Team Two's equipment."

Jian Xilai was somewhat speechless and said:
"You already have an idea, why didn't you say it earlier?"

"Give you some room to perform." Butterfly whispered, "After all, you are the president."

"Then let's do as you say." Jian Xilai is somewhat like Su Ming, who likes to be a hands-off boss...

"Well, Su Ming, you bring the NPC here tomorrow to get familiar with the team members."

"it is good."

The discussion group fell silent. Jian Xilai looked through the chat history and clicked on Su Ming's task screenshot to read the task introduction. The task introduction also recorded the conversation between the player and the NPC before accepting the task.

Jian Xilai noticed that An Yi mentioned that "Nagula was doing something dangerous." As far as he knew, Liusha of the Time River Guild was helping Nagula with her mission.

"Is it a multi-threaded task? I guess whoever clears it first will fail the other's task, so we need to hurry up."

Jian Xilai spoke again in the discussion group and shared his findings.

"I have sent people to watch the entrance of the dungeon. If Liusha leads a team into the dungeon, I will notify you immediately." Jian Xilai.

"Yes." Butterfly whispered, "Spore, do you know about Nagula? What skills does she have? If it's a multi-threaded task, it's easy to run into a copy."

Butterfly Whisper frowned slightly and continued typing:

"There are too many unstable factors. There may be conflicts in the dungeon, and the boss's form may change. President, you should let the second team prepare first."

"I would have let them participate in the race even without you telling me. I'm not stupid..."

"Is Spore here? Provide some information about the other NPC." Butterfly urged in a whisper.

"I've never seen Nagula take action, so I have no idea how she fights. Sorry..." Su Ming said.

"Ask your NPC. Her name is An Yi, right? Isn't she the other party's sister? Go ask her." Butterfly Whispering's mind was working quickly.

Su Ming thought Butterfly Whisper was very smart and immediately ran to find An Yi.

It was difficult for even Su Ming to enter the temple at night. Fortunately, he met Jebilian who was out for a walk. She was wearing pajamas and hugging a pillow.

"Lady Jiebilian!" Su Ming clung to the wall and waved to the sleepy Jiebilian.

Jiebilian raised her head slightly, saw Su Ming, and said with a smile:

"It's Spore. What do you want from me at this late hour?"

Su Ming thought that since Jabilian was Nagula's mother, asking her would be similar to asking Anyi, so he asked:
"I want to ask, does Nagula usually fight? How does she fight?"

Jabilian tilted her head and thought for a while, then said in a lazy voice:

"Although Nagula has a bad temper, she is also a good kid. She won't fight with others..."

Then, Jabilian opened her eyes a little and said:
"Why are you asking about Nagura? Is it because you don't like An Yi? You can't have two relationships at the same time."

"You misunderstood... Nagura really can't fight?"

"Really? My three daughters are all ladies, oh, haha." Jabilian smiled and yawned, saying, "If you have nothing else, I'll leave first."

Because An Yi really couldn't fight, Su Ming believed what Jiebilian said. Just as he was about to leave, Su Ming noticed the pillow Jiebilian was holding, so he asked curiously:
"Where are you going with your pillow?"

Jiebilian laughed twice and said:

"Go sleep with An Yi. She's soft and it's so comfortable to hold her while sleeping. You'll have a chance to experience that in the future, but not now."

Jiebilian's unreliable behavior made Su Ming more cautious. He did not intend to leave and said:

"Lady Jebilian, um...please let me meet An Yi. I have something to tell her."

"It's very suspicious." Jiebilian stared at Su Ming for a while, waved her hand and said, "Come with me."

Soon, Su Ming met An Yi, and the two avoided Jiebilian and chatted quietly, which made Jiebilian very sad...

Through An Yi's description, Su Ming knew that Nagula really had no fighting ability, but she could make strange potions. The most powerful potion would cause a violent explosion when it encountered a collision. Because she made it without telling Jabilian, Jabilian knew nothing about it...

An Yi also told Su Ming some ways to avoid being harmed by the potion prepared by Nagula.

Su Ming was very glad that he didn't believe in Jiebilian in the end...

Finally, Su Ming told An Yi that he would meet his teammates tomorrow morning and said good night to her.

Jiebilian knew she would be leaving tomorrow, and she was looking forward to it. When Jiebilian saw her looking forward to it, the misunderstanding deepened...

An Yi felt that her mother hugged her tighter today than before...
