Looking at the golden exclamation mark hovering above Su Yu’s head, many players felt a desire to retort, but they didn’t know where to begin. If Su Yu were an NPC, the exclamation mark wouldn’t seem out of place.
But he’s a player!
A player with a golden exclamation mark issuing quests to other players, this…
The sight was bizarre no matter how one looked at it.
No matter how strange they felt, players approached Su Yu one by one to accept his task.
“Ding! Congratulations, you have triggered the large-scale scenario battle [Giant Wood Canyon Encounter].”
“Battle Briefing: The Empire’s Princess Alyssa is about to negotiate with the rebel leader Anzu Seifer in Maple City, and the inevitable path [Giant Wood Canyon] sees her ambushed by unidentified bandits. The bandits are numerous, but the princess’s escorting party is very few.”
“Battle Requirements: Assist player ‘Nemesis’ to protect the princess’s convoy so that damage does not exceed 50%, and Princess Alyssa must survive.
(Current damage: 0%)”
“Battle Rewards: Experience Pointsx3000, Spiritual Energy Coinsx10.”
Upon receiving the quest, players huddled together to discuss:
“[Giant Wood Canyon Encounter]? This should be a storyline-related scenario battle, right?”
“I think so too. The princess discussed her trip to Maple City in yesterday’s meeting.”
“The main storyline is way too awesome! It even offers a task with thousands of players!”
“There’s a lot of experience points for this quest. I really hope such a high-experience quest can occur more often.”
Su Yu stood still, allowing the players to accept the quest.
Some players were very interested in the princess’s story and asked Su Yu some questions about the plot. Su Yu, having nothing better to do, answered all of their questions.
The players in the scene crowded around Su Yu to receive the quest. After completing, they stepped back, making room for other players. The whole process was orderly.
After about 5 minutes, when half of the players had accepted the quest, an assassin walked over from the edge of the square.
This assassin’s movements immediately attracted the attention of all the players around, as he was the second-ranked player on the leaderboard – A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated.
Before Su Yu arrived at the square, several guild leaders had tried to recruit him but failed.
In addition, because A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated was quite solitary, he had been standing in a corner of the square all this time.
Until now, he finally moved.
A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated walked over to Su Yu and said, “Nemesis, can I join your guild?”
His words immediately drew the attention of all the guild leaders.
A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated actually wanted to join Nemesis’ guild? No wonder he had turned down their invitations.
Su Yu looked at A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated.
A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated was a robust man in his thirties. As a martial artist, his bulging muscles could be faintly seen through his leather armor.
For such a top-level player, Su Yu had no reason to refuse and immediately sent him a guild invite.
“Ding! Player A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated joins the guild.”
“Welcome! Why did you want to join my guild?” Su Yu asked.
Could it be that he was convinced by my king’s domineering spirit? Su Yu thought to himself.
A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated answered, “I noticed you since you cleared the [Green Pasture] dungeon. You answered all of the Sheep Village Chief’s questions correctly, which shows that you have a deep understanding of the game, right?”
“Certainly.” Su Yu responded confidently.
“Can an assassin change class and become a warrior? Honestly, I don’t really like playing an assassin, but I can’t bear to restart the game.” A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated revealed his true intention.
Su Yu laughed, “Of course I know about that.”
Not only did Su Yu know how to switch from the Thief class to the Warrior class, but he could even change A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated’s class to one of Su Yu’s all-time favourites – the [Martial Artist] class. This could be achieved through a hidden quest.
“Really?” A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated’s eyes lit up: “Could you tell me the method to switch classes? I’ll meet any requirements you have!” “Let’s add each other as friends and continue private messaging.”
Su Yu sent a friend request to A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated.
A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated also knew that it wasn’t appropriate to discuss this in public and accepted Su Yu’s friend request without hesitation.
The two switched to private messaging.
Su Yu: “A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated, though you want to switch to the
Warrior class, I don’t think it’ll fully satisfy you, will it?”
A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated didn’t respond, Su Yu’s question had hit a nerve.
To be a Warrior, one must wear a set of heavy armor to achieve any combat effectiveness, but A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated didn’t want to be a clumsy Warrior.
In his mind, the Warrior class only slightly topped the Assassin class, but it still fell short of his ideal class.
Su Yu continued messaging: “I know a class that will suit you perfectly.” A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated didn’t believe him: “What class?”
Su Yu: “The third expansion ‘Pandaren Empire’ is going to introduce four new classes: Martial Artist, Taoist, Monk, and Alchemist. The Martial Artist class would suit you perfectly.”
A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated’s eyes lit up.
Being a Martial Artist in reality, the Martial Artist class of course harmonised with him.
But…
“There are still four months until the third expansion is released, right? I suppose I’ll have to wait patiently.”
Su Yu: “No, no. I know of a hidden quest which can allow you to switch to the Martial Artist class ahead of time.
A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated was shocked.
How come Nemesis seemed to know everything? Could he really be a game designer?
Besides, a hidden quest that allows early access to a class from an upcoming expansion could fetch at least hundreds of thousands of Flower Coins if sold on the Black Market!
Many affluent players would definitely be willing to buy.
Intimidated, A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated started to back out. He certainly would not spend hundreds of thousands to acquire this hidden class.
Su Yu continued messaging: “I can tell you about this hidden quest but you have to promise to do me a favor. When you’re in the Pandaren Empire, I need you to collect some materials for me.”
In fact, when he first started playing, Su Yu had thought about heading to the Pandaren Empire first. After all, there were no players there, meaning all of the game resources within the empire were his alone!
But after accepting two main quests, he shelved the idea.
“Alright. I agree,” A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated made up his mind.
Good opportunities are fleeting, A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated decided to seize this chance.
Su Yu: “Even though you’ve agreed, I need to reiterate the pros and cons of becoming a Martial Artist.”
“Cons: First, you’ll be sent to the Pandaren Empire, at least a month will pass before you can return. Second, Martial Artist skill books certainly won’t be readily available for purchase in stores like other classes, being a disadvantage and causing your strength to lag behind mainstream players.”
“Pros: First, you’ll be transitioning into a class that suits you perfectly. Second, all the resources in the Pandaren Empire will be yours. For the next four months, you won’t have any competition and you can explore freely.”
A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated thought briefly and responded: “I am willing to switch to the Martial Artist class! Plus, I will collect the materials you need to the best of my abilities.”
Su Yu was pleased: “Great. For the next few days, stay with me. After we finish this mission, I will tell you how to unlock the hidden quest.”
“Alright,” A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated replied.
If the Martial Artist class really suited him well, he’d definitely seize this opportunity.
As tor the gaming solitude, he was used to grinding alone in the past; changing location wouldn’t be a big deal.
“I hope the Martial Artist class really suits me!” A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated silently wished..
