Chapter 598

"I've thought about it, but I can't sell the two beast carcasses yet." Gu Ding shook his head. "Due to my size, I'll attract the attention of the natives of this world wherever I go. If I sell the two beast carcasses, the buyer will likely investigate my identity. "

"Moreover, the souls of the two true god-level beasts were directly wiped out by me. There were no wounds on their bodies. If I sell the beast carcasses, it's likely that the local powerhouses will suspect my identity. You've said before that the souls of the creatures in this world are extremely weak. Almost no one knows how to attack and defend their souls. If they find out that I know how to attack their souls, my identity as an outsider will most likely be exposed. "

"I see, but it's useless for me to tell you the location of the red blood crystal mine …" Neptune was also considering if there were other ways to help Gu Ding obtain the red blood crystals.

"Why not?" Gu Ding asked doubtfully.

"This world is only so big. All the red blood crystal mines have been taken over by the Heavenly God. Each mine is guarded by a powerful True God, and they're all the Heavenly God's subordinates. If you try to snatch the mine, you'll be immediately discovered by the Heavenly God. After all, the area of this world is less than the size of a small galaxy. Even if the Heavenly God doesn't know how to use soul detection, he'll definitely know how to use the most basic method of soul scanning. If that happens, you'll probably die in less than a day, let alone a year. "Neptune told Gu Ding about the connection between the mine and the Heavenly God.

"Just tell me the location of the mission list. I'll go see what kind of missions there are." Gu Ding knew that snatching the mine was not a reliable way to go. With his current strength, provoking the Heavenly God would be suicide.

"The mission list is outside the castellan's residence. The castellan's residence is at eleven o 'clock, about fifteen kilometers away from you."

Following Neptune's guidance, Gu Ding soon found the castellan's residence. It was a complex of buildings that looked like a castle.

Less than fifty meters to the left of the castellan's residence, a huge stone tablet stood beside it. It was more than a hundred meters tall.

The stone tablet was engraved with black words the size of a palm. From top to bottom, from left to right, there were more than thirty thousand mission numbers.

"These missions are carved in? Doesn't that mean that the missions that have already been completed are still up there? " Gu Ding looked at the huge stone monument in surprise. He did not understand how the mission was assigned in such a way.

"This stone tablet is called the Psychic Tablet. It's a Real God spiritual item. To be precise, it's a set of Real God spiritual items. It was like a True God's spiritual item with countless clones. All of its contents were inscribed on any stone tablet, and the other stone tablets would be generated simultaneously. There are more than three hundred cities in this world, and every city has a Psychic Monument. All the missions are distributed to all the cities at the same time. "

"Once the mission is completed, as long as the person who completed the mission touches the corresponding engraved words, the engraved words will automatically disappear from the stone tablet."

"Moreover, this stone tablet can understand the human language. As long as you give the command, it will automatically filter the missions for you and even flip the pages."

The Sea Emperor's explanation was based on information gathered from all over the place. Even he himself wasn't sure if this information was reliable.

"Can it really understand the human language?" Gu Ding was a little skeptical. He rose into the air and said to the stone tablet, "Arrange the mission bounties from high to low."

As soon as he finished speaking, the engraved words on the stone tablet actually began to change. In just a moment, the mission bounties were arranged from high to low.

Gu Ding started from the mission with serial number 1.

1. Crack the World Restriction

Mission Description: The world we are in is just a small enclosed world. Crack the restriction on the periphery of the world and open the seal of the world to complete the mission.

Mission Reward: Ten Purple Blood Crystal Veins.

2. The Mystery of the Strongest King's Disappearance

Mission Description: All humans or monsters in this world will immediately disappear once they cultivate to the Strongest King level. Solve the mystery of the Strongest King's disappearance to obtain the reward.

Mission Reward: Three Purple Blood Crystal Veins.

3. Explore the Sealed Forbidden Area

Mission Description: The world we are in has many naturally sealed forbidden areas. No one knows what's inside. Enter these forbidden areas and explore the information inside. Share the results of your exploration and tell them how to enter the forbidden areas.

[Mission Reward: One Purple Blood Crystal vein for each forbidden area]

…

"The first few are not okay. Either you can't do it, or your identity will be exposed and you will be hunted after doing it." Neptune scanned all the contents on the stone tablet at a glance. "The mission that is suitable for you and has the highest reward is the 56th mission."

After listening to Neptune, Gu Ding was too lazy to scan through them one by one. He directly jumped to the 56th mission.

56. Collect Red Flame Demon Fruit

[Mission Description: The Scarlet Flame Demon Tree only grows on land that has a large amount of True God-level monster blood. Furthermore, every Scarlet Flame Demon Tree is guarded by a powerful True God-level monster. It only bears fruit once every ten thousand years, and each time it bears fruit, it lasts for one month. After the one-month period, the fruit that has not been picked will directly explode and turn into vitality energy to breed the demon tree. Bring the fruit back intact and the mission will be considered completed. The more fruits you pick, the better.

[Mission Reward: One Purple Blood Crystal for each Scarlet Flame Demon Fruit.]

Mission Payment Location: Shattrath, the main city.

Mission Trader: Darr.

"The reward is not bad. Neptune, do you know where I can find this fruit?" Gu Ding asked quickly.

"I don't know because I don't know what this fruit looks like. There's nothing with this name in my database. Moreover, more than 90% of the plants in this world can't be found in my database. "Neptune gave a negative answer." It's just a name, it doesn't match at all. I need to find a book on herbs in this world to read so that I can compare it according to its appearance. "

"Then let's accept this mission." Gu Ding felt that this mission was not difficult for him. Moreover, he could also kill monsters along the way to cultivate and devour the monsters' vitality. It was killing three birds with one stone.

After excitedly saying that he wanted to accept the mission, Gu Ding shouted at the stone tablet, "Mission 56, I accept!"

After shouting, the stone tablet did not move for a long time. Gu Ding was a little dumbfounded. "What's going on? Does this count as it hearing me or not? "

"Press your palm on the mission number and hold it for three seconds before you accept the mission." Neptune was a little speechless about his behavior.

"Oh." Gu Ding immediately pressed his palm on the mission number 56 and held it for three seconds. The stone tablet trembled and a white light flowed through Gu Ding's palm and into his body. A dark and inexplicable message appeared in Gu Ding's mind. Gu Ding knew that he had accepted the mission.

After withdrawing his hand, Gu Ding's figure slowly landed on the ground.

"Is there a place like a library here?"

"Yes, but it's paper books. You have to turn the pages for me to read the contents." Neptune was a little unhappy about this.

However, Gu Ding was very interested. "Paper books? I've never read paper books before. I heard that Cerule used paper books a few hundred years ago. Later on, when we left the Cosmic Sea, all the books were electronic versions. I've never had the chance to read paper books. "

"The library is at your three o 'clock. Walk straight for about 1.5 kilometers." As soon as Neptune's voice fell, Gu Ding jumped up and appeared in front of the library in an instant.

The library did not look very big. From the outside, it looked more like a warehouse.

Gu Ding walked toward the door with interest but was stopped by an old man at the door.

"Young man, you're from the outer city, aren't you? You have to pay a Blood Bead every day to enter the library. "

"Can I swipe my card?" Gu Ding did not have a single Blood Bead on him. However, Gu Ding guessed that the other party's answer would be no.

He did not expect the old man to take a deep look at Gu Ding. Then, a card machine appeared in his hand. "Of course."

Gu Ding was stunned when he saw the card machine, but he still handed the card over. After swiping it, the amount deducted was indeed a Blood Bead. Gu Ding shook his head and turned to enter the door.

The old man at the door looked at Gu Ding's back and said in a low voice, "Hmph, every time I meet someone who doesn't want to pay, I always find an excuse that I didn't bring change and can only swipe my card. I've learned my lesson. Even if you only bring a crystal card, I'll still accept it! "

Although Gu Ding was curious as to why the old man would swipe his card for a Blood Bead, he did not delve into the matter.

When he entered the library, there were not many people inside. What he saw were hundreds of bookshelves, tables, and chairs. Gu Ding felt a sense of novelty.

"On the left, second row. On the fourth layer of the third bookshelf, there are five very thick Species of the World." Neptune's voice came into Gu Ding's mind.

Gu Ding followed Neptune's instructions and walked toward the bookshelf. Soon, he found the five books that Gu Ding was talking about.

Each of the five books was quite thick. The total thickness of the five books was nearly a meter long. Gu Ding picked them all up and found an empty table. Soon, he started flipping through the first book.

When he touched the paper of the book and the faint smell of ink on it, Gu Ding felt as if he had returned to a few hundred years ago. As he flipped through the pages, he slowly read the contents of the book.

However, after reading a few pages with Neptune, Neptune could not stand Gu Ding's reading speed and simply asked him to turn the pages. In desperation, Gu Ding flipped through one of the books. Everyone in the library looked at Gu Ding with obvious dissatisfaction in their eyes.

Gu Ding could only slow down and try to keep his voice down so as not to disturb others. However, the speed at which he flipped through the books as if he was counting money made the other readers feel a little disdainful.

It took Gu Ding more than ten minutes to finish the first book.

"It's not in this book. Let's go through them one by one. I think it should be in the Plants section." After Gu Ding flipped through one book, Neptune recorded all the data.

Then, Gu Ding spent half an hour flipping through the second and third books.

"The fourth book should be the Plants section. It should be described in this." Neptune finished reading two to three books but still could not find any information about the Red Flame Demon Tree.

Gu Ding picked up the fourth book and quickly flipped through it. However, he heard Neptune's puzzled voice. "Strange, it's not in the Plants section either …"

"If that's the case, we'd better give up on this mission. We can't proceed with this mission if we don't even know what the Red Flame Demon Tree looks like. I'll go out and take on another mission. We don't have to waste any more time. "Gu Ding immediately made a decision.

"Let me finish this last book first. I can use it to complete my database." Neptune, on the other hand, wanted to finish reading the last book.

"Alright." Gu Ding picked up the last book and began to flip through it quickly.

More than ten minutes later, Neptune's voice finally came. "It turns out that this Red Flame Demon Tree is not classified under the Plants section. It's placed under the last foreign species section."

"You found it?!" Gu Ding hurriedly asked through his consciousness.

"I found it. Take a look at it. It's on page 589 to 592." Neptune added, "This mission is much more troublesome than I thought."
