What's going on here? A wrong choice actually leads to a plot twist? Or is this the way it should have been?

His mind was in a mess and he wanted to find the logic of the game, but after thinking about it, he could only attribute this situation to the personality of the NPC Yang Kui.

But this is too... intelligent, just like a living person.

He grumbled, then gritted his teeth and accepted Yang Kui's invitation and walked into the house.

The interior is surprisingly simply decorated. For a blind person, all he needs is the furniture for daily living. The only decorations are a suit of armor covered with scars and honors and a sunflower.

Chapter 1791 Sun Chasing Part 4

"Where's your spear?"

He habitually looked around, searching for treasures. He thought Yang Kui should be a master of spearmanship, so he must have a spear of very high quality.

The crutch in Yang Kui's hand counts as one, but judging from the movements, it doesn't seem to be supported.

Maybe that spear is the reward for the mission.

Yang Kui, who was fiddling with the sunflowers with her back to him, paused and pointed at the clothesline outside the window with her crutch.

"there."

"Hang, clothesline?" The corner of his mouth twitched, and a classic line immediately came to mind, "Your spear is crying."

"You should cry the day it becomes useless as my weapon. Of course, if you complete the next transaction, this spear, this armor, and this house will all be yours."

"Oh! Tell me about it." He found this seat and sat down. Although he initially guessed that this was a boring task to relieve his emotional problems, Yang Kui's eccentric and weird style aroused a little interest in him.

Maybe he'll find something interesting.

"Go catch the sun."

"……what?"

"Catch the sun."

"Wait, wait!" He slapped his ears hard, suspecting that there was an error in the program that caused him to hear some strange noises.

Isn't this a mission about an absolutely impossible promise? What does it mean to catch up with the sun?

According to common sense, shouldn't he be entrusted to find the man who made the promise?

"From here, the edge of the world runs all the way to the other side of the world, catching up with the sun."

"I'm not asking you to describe the mission in detail. I just don't understand the reason for this mission." The corners of his mouth twitched. This location is the edge of the world and also where the sun rises.

And this old woman actually planned to let him chase the sun from the edge of the world all the way to the other side of the world.

What kind of brain-dead behavior is this?

Yang Kui tapped the flowerpot with her knuckles.

"Can't you see? I'm fulfilling a promise."

“If you let the sunflower chase the sun, then the sunflower will not turn its head because of the sun, and the promise will be fulfilled.”

"What are you saying..." He didn't know what to say for a moment. Thinking of Yang Kui's eccentric personality, he simply said directly, "You should know that this promise is his euphemistic farewell."

"I know."

Yang Kui nodded. She was in her eighties and had already understood what she needed to understand. Not to mention that she was once the leader of a prestigious knight order. It was difficult for her to have any emotional fluctuations.

"I have found a way to fulfill this promise, but I just can't do it myself."

"You can choose to give up and not accept it, but if you don't fulfill this promise, what qualifications do you have to say it's fake?"

"I..." He was silent for a while. It wasn't that Yang Kui's words touched him. The lines were quite touching, but Yang Kui's sarcastic voice was really harsh.

What made him silent was that his good friend had said something similar to him.

[You just don't want to do it! Don't use the fact that things are going well now as an excuse!]

He was immersed in the virtual world and ignored his friends' advice, but he knew that he was now a piece of rotten meat.

"Honestly, I don't think you can complete this task. You're too fat to do this kind of exercise."

"You can use the excuse that you think I'm a crazy woman as an excuse to refuse this deal."

His pupils suddenly shrank. Impossible!

His physical body is that of a strong adult male. How could the NPC know his real body? This is not a question of whether or not privacy is violated.

"How did you know!"

"Breathe." Yang Kui snorted coldly, and those eyes that looked gray due to the scars seemed to see his true appearance through his appearance, which made people feel cold.

"You're clearly a strong body, yet you start panting after just a little bit of exercise. I'm afraid your fighting style has always been to stand still and wait for your opponent to attack, then counterattack."

All right.

However, it wasn't his real body that affected his gameplay; it was an instinct. After intense exercise, he subconsciously thought it was time to catch his breath.

Only highly specialized individuals, such as former professional player Greenland, can achieve complete separation of mind and body.

The corner of his eye twitched. There was something fishy about this game.

He bravely asked, "So I'm not qualified to challenge this mission?"

"Don't throw the problem to me, choose whether to participate or not, fat man."

This mouth stinks!

The corners of his mouth twitched, and he snorted coldly. He was about to say something when he was interrupted by Yang Kui.

"do you hate me?"

"Ahem!" He almost couldn't catch his breath. He rolled his eyes in annoyance, "Is there anyone here who doesn't hate you?"

Judging from the information he just searched, there are people who feel sorry for Yang Kui, and there are also many people who find Yang Kui annoying.

They mainly criticized Yang Kui's character, but they had no ill will towards Yang Kui herself. On the contrary, they were quite grateful to her. The security of the entire village was basically the responsibility of this foul-mouthed blind old woman.

"Then you come and refute my words. I said my man would fulfill his promise. I have been waiting for him with hope. You come and make my hope of waiting for forty years come to nothing."

"Well, I don't hate it to that extent."

He covered his face speechlessly. This blind old woman was mentally twisted.

But as a player, I have been called fat, so there is no reason not to accept this provocation.

"Since you've said this much, I won't be polite anymore. I'll take on this task!"

"Let me make you despair!"

[World Class Challenge: Chasing the Sun/Accepted]

……

"What the hell did I say?"

He sat on the wooden block and covered his hot face. He cared more about what he said than actually triggering a world-class challenge.

When his friends get angry, they call him a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water, but it turns out that he still has a sense of shame.

It would be fine if he said that to a beautiful girl, but he said that to an old woman in her eighties.

"that……"

One or two villagers came over tremblingly, fearing his identity as a bad player, but unable to resist their curiosity.

"Stranger, have you accepted Yang Kui's challenge?"

"You mean that stupid thing about chasing the sun? I took it."

"You, you're a hero!"

He suspected that there was something wrong with his ears again, or that this was a kind of high-level sarcasm, but the simple villagers' faces were full of sincerity.

He found it a little funny and said seriously: "Do you know what it means to complete this challenge? Maybe it is the hope brought by this promise that has kept Yang Kui alive."

"If I complete this impossible challenge and dash Yang Kui's hopes, she might lose hope in life and die."

"You just hate her, you don't want her to die."

"But isn't the only way for the blessed to die, at the end of their lifespan?" the villagers murmured. "Besides, if even such an impossible thing were accomplished, maybe the man Yang Kui is waiting for will really come back?"

He was stunned for a moment, then slowly turned his gaze to the edge of the world not far away.

He wouldn't really do such a stupid thing.

Chapter 1792 Sun Chasing Chapter 5

Really do it.

"Ugh—I really vomit—vomit—"

After running for an hour, he knelt on the ground and began to retch. His mind judged that his obese body should start retching because of the intense exercise.

"What a poor body!"

He hated his body, which actually started to hold him back, and he also started to back down.

An hour of sprinting only completed less than one percent of the distance, and the mission time was only 12 hours. This was an absolutely impossible task.

He decided to give up this task, but when he arrived in front of Yang Kui, before he even opened his mouth, Yang Kui seemed to already know what he wanted to say.

"Are you giving up, Fatty? It doesn't matter to you, strangers are just like this. You can't even do a bad thing to make an old woman despair. How can we expect you to do anything good?"

He was furious. Was that necessary? While it was true that most players weren't up to good, it wasn't necessary to say so.

He never uttered the word "giving up" because what had always been his way of escaping reality was his talent for gaming, his ability to do anything in the gaming world.

If he gives up here, it means he is just looking for an excuse to escape reality and allow himself to fall into depravity.

He cheered himself up and began to break down the impossible challenge of "catching up with the sun" step by step.

The first problem he discovered was that this mission did not challenge speed, but endurance and understanding of the terrain.

Of course, this doesn't mean that speed is completely unnecessary. It's just that at his current level, a slight adjustment in the attributes will be enough. He only needs to find a route that will not be affected, and the difficulty of [catching up with the sun] will be greatly reduced.

But to do this requires a lot of intelligence, which he, a bad player, cannot obtain.

Fortunately, the news that he wanted to help Yang Kui fulfill his promise spread throughout this small village, and even though he was a bad player, the villagers were willing to come and help.

However, the economy of this remote village is not good, and it is a bit short of money to obtain detailed map information from [Hermes's Travel Hat].

He thought that since he couldn't complete the challenge of "Catching the Sun" in a short time anyway, he might as well let the villagers take the task on his behalf and do it himself, making the village a little better while obtaining map information.

In this process, he also has to do something very important.

Looking at his fat self in the mirror, he began to back down again. He had to lose weight.

It is not only to achieve the combination of spirit and body, but also to complete the assessment of [G] Company.

The challenge of catching up with the sun is limited to twelve hours, which is too short for the challenge content, but too long for the playable time in the virtual warehouse.

Although he is an adult, there have been many accidents in virtual warehouses in recent years. If you want to log in for more than 8 hours, you need to pass a strict assessment.

He had thought about going through the special channels of professional players, which would allow him to be exempted from the test, but... this might be an opportunity.

He didn't talk to his friends. If he did, and made lofty ambitions, he would feel like he couldn't do it. It would be better to just do it.

"Haha... I'm really sick..."

He walked slowly to a very good gym, which was said to be opened by the financial sponsor of [G] Company. It was said that there were special trainings for passing the virtual warehouse assessment.

When the coaches at the gym saw him, their eyes lit up. Needless to say, they saw a business opportunity.

He understood that an obese person like him would obviously not have the willpower to stick to losing weight. He might buy twenty classes, but would not be able to bear it and run away after only three or four.

In order to leave himself no way out, he bought three months of hellish training.

"Uh-uh--"

He knelt on the ground and retched again, and Yang Kui patted his back with his crutch in disgust.

"You haven't even started running yet, why are you already vomiting? And don't vomit so loudly."

"Not because of this."

He covered his mouth, thinking that a short pain is worse than a long one. His diet during the three months of hellish training consisted of broccoli and chicken breast juice and six liters of water every day.

"Leave me alone, let me vomit for a while. The sun won't rise for another hour anyway."
