12 12, Annie and [Giant bear Tibbers]_1

Translator: 549690339

Upon hearing Emperor Blood Slays the Sky’s plan, the younger brothers’ eyes lit up:

“Brilliant, boss!”

“Only our boss could come up with such a perfect plan!”

“Heh, the Zhan Tian guild? They think they can do whatever they want just because they have more people? They still need to grovel before our boss!”

“We must tarnish their reputation!”

The younger brothers were wildly praising Emperor Blood Slays the Sky, at the same time, they were all eagerly preparing to participate in this operation.

Ling Feng was not the type to offer flattery, but he nodded, “Understood. I’ll notify Zhen Hong now and get him to lead the team.”

Emperor Blood Slays the Sky patted Ling Feng on the shoulder:

“Go on, but remember not to give ourselves away during this operation. All the elites in the game are concentrated in the first few newbie villages. Villages 6-8 are devoid of any elites. You guys can start from there.”

“Alright.” Ling Feng answered.

Emperor Blood Slays the Sky swept his gaze over all his junior brothers, “Apart from this operation, keep an eye out for this person called ‘Nemesis’. If you acquire any news about him, inform me immediately!”

“Understood, boss!” the younger brothers assured him in unison.

…

Meanwhile, in the same warehouse.

Zhan Tianjian stared at the auction interface detailing the [Rampage Sheep Leader’s Horn] in silence.

Ever since he started playing the game, he always believed that he could completely control the game with his past gaming experience and followers.

But now, with the appearance of this level 4 boss material, he suddenly found his control slipping.

Zhan Tianjian turned to his deputy:

“Qingli, any news on ‘Nemesis’?”

Qingli was a beautiful young woman.

She shook her head with a stern face: “I’ve messaged most of the high-ranking members in the guild, none of them have heard anything about…wait! It’s a private message from East Mountain Sword. He knows about ‘Nemesis’!”

Immediately, she copied the message, forwarding it to guild leader Zhan Tianjian.

“East Mountain Sword? Isn’t that kid in the 6th newbie village?”

Zhan Tianjian frowned slightly, quickly reading the private message.

The content of the message was: East Mountain Sword had encountered “Nemesis” in the level 3 monster zone, he invited him into the guild but was rejected along with a series of other issues.

Zhan Tianjian read the message over and over again, three times in total.

After reading, he closed the message window, and turned to Qingli with a serious look: “Our original plan was to stop Emperor Blood Slays the Sky from monopolizing the market, but now our plan has changed. We are heading to the 6th newbie village immediately!”

“Alright, boss.”

…

Whilst all the newbie villages were in chaos due to Su Yu’s listed equipment and skill scrolls, Su Yu was also nearing the end of his hidden quest.

Outstanding Hidden Quest [Tear of Savie Goddess (20/20)]

In the deep forest west of the village.

Su Yu was slowly walking with a 7-8 years old, red-hooded, cute-looking loli NPC.

The forest was dark due to the tall trees blocking out the sun.

It was nearing dusk and the forest was dimly lit, the visibility was extremely low.

Further in the forest, the ghostly howling and the feral roars of beasts were faintly discernible, making it all the more terrifying.

The NPC loli’s name was Annie.

She was very scared, looking around at her surroundings in terror, her small hands icy cold:

“Uncle, is my toy bear ‘Tibbers’ really here?”

“Of course, Aunt Marguerite told us so, she can’t be wrong!” Su Yu comforted her whilst stroking the top of Annie’s head.

At the same time, he was also mentally calculating, “I’ve walked 3500 steps now, just 100 more steps to reach the 3600 steps indicated by the quest.”

Su Yu nodded, marked the spot with his foot, then turned Annie 90 degrees, changing their direction from north to east.

Finally, at the 3600th step, Su Yu and little loli Annie arrived at the entrance of a black mountain cave.

On seeing this cave, Annie tightly tugged at Su Yu’s sleeve, extremely frightened, “Uncle, do the two of us really have to go in? It’s so dark in there!”

“Of course… we’re not going in there, why would we?”

Su Yu replied with a smile.

Then, bending over, he parted a seemingly unremarkable shrub at his feet. From within, he retrieved a toy bear as long as an adult’s forearm and handed it over to the little girl, Annie.

[Teddy Bear Tibbers (Excellent)]

Note: Annie’s favourite toy.

You could say that the final step of this mission is super tricky!

The tricky part is: when a player has walked 3600 steps to arrive at the entrance of a cave, their first reaction is definitely to enter the cave for a look.

Moreover, the little girl Annie even gave a hint, suggesting that both of them should go inside.

But Su Yu knew, the cave was full of instant-death traps, and the real mission item was hidden in the bushes at the entrance of the cave.

This just counted as one of the disgusting missions designed against human fixed thinking.

…

After receiving [Teddy Bear Tibbers], a look of happiness danced about on the little girl Annie’s face. She was brimming with joy and cheerfully hopping around:

“Thank you uncle! Thanks for bringing me here, or else I would have never seen Tibbers again in my life!”

“No need to be formal.” Su Yu ruffled Annie’s hair again, “It’s getting late now, let’s quickly return to the village, or else your dad will be worried about you.”

“I can’t do that, uncle.” Annie tightly hugged Tibbers with an ever radiant smile, “I really appreciate your help in rescuing Tibbers from the bushes. But if we just leave like this, won’t the bushes feel sad?”

Su Yu: “….”

He turned to look at the bushes at his feet.

These things can actually feel sad?

Annie went on saying, “So, uncle, can you stay here and keep the bushes company?”

“I think…”

Before Su Yu could finish his sentence, Annie interrupted him, “You don’t really get a say in this, uncle.”

Saying this, she tossed the toy bear in her hand.

The toy bear grew larger with the wind and soon transformed into a giant brown bear, standing upright at a towering height of 4 meters!

[Giant bear Tibbers (lv6)]

HP: 800

Tibbers had the same amount of health as the goat boss Su Yu had just killed.

“Tibbers! Take care of him!” Little Annie yelled.

On hearing Annie’s command, the giant bear immediately roared and begun sprinting towards Su Yu.

But Su Yu showed no signs of panic.

He drank a bottle of [Primary Wisdom Potion], granting him +10 intelligence.

With a wave of his left hand, an Ice Arrow scroll was ripped apart. The activated Frost Arrow brutally slammed into the Giant Bear Tibbers.

At the same time, his right hand’s wand was also flickering with dazzling lightning.

Crackle!

A [Lightning Bolt] flew out of the wand, striking directly at the forehead of [Giant Bear Tibbers], leaving a charring mark.

-55 (Ice Arrow Scroll)

-101

The total combined damage instantly reduced [Giant bear Tibbers]’ HP by 20%!

But just at this moment, little Annie launched an attack towards Su Yu as well.

With a casual wave of her hand, she sent a huge, magical fireball, [Fractured Fire], darting toward Su Yu.

Su Yu flashed a slight smile.

He did not even bother to activate his [Frost Shield].

With a swift dodge.

The magical fireball brushed past him, inflicting no harm whatsoever.

While Su Yu continued his onslaught, dealing another double hits of damage, pushing [Giant bear Tibbers]’ health bar down below 60%.
