MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter

Chapter 68: Chapter 68: Getting the Necklace (Reward Extra)

Translator: 549690339

The incoming party was a group of female players, led by Flaming Red Lips.

Upon seeing Li Yao perched atop the Dragon Eagle, Silent Lily immediately pointed him out, saying, “So, this NPC is here. Perfect timing, we can turn in our quest.”

Hearing her shout, Li Yao’s heart skipped a beat, appreciating the absurd luck these women had.

Li Yao was convinced he grinded monsters several times more than they did, but he hadn’t even laid eyes on a single thread of the necklace. They, on the other hand, already got the necklace. Li Yao couldn’t help but think that sometimes luck is far more important than strength.

Naihe Qiao was taken aback for a moment, then burst into a roar of laughter, pointing at Li Yao and saying, “Are you guys confused? He’s an NPC. No, you’re wrong, he’s actually a player.”

Before Li Yao could get a word in, Silent Lily, hands on her hips, retorted,

“What nonsense are you talking? He’s clearly an NPC. He even gave me a quest.” “What? He can give out quests?” Naihe Qiao was stunned, adding in disbelief, “No way. He lured monsters to kill our guild’s squad. Besides, their conversation doesn’t sound anything like what NPCs would say.”

Flaming Red Lips squinted a little, sizing Li Yao up before she asked, “You are a player, aren’t you? Why did you fool us? I demand an explanation.”

Hearing Flaming Red Lips confirm it with such certainty, the faces of the other girls behind her changed immediately, their expressions filled with anger as they glared at Li Yao.

Silent Lily, in particular, was on the verge of tears. She had been the one to determine that he was an NPC and persuade their guild to undertake the quest. She never imagined that they’d been deceived by a man.

Just as she was about to blow her top, she suddenly remembered the video she had seen earlier and pointed at Li Yao, saying, “He’s the one from the video! The one that ruined Leisure Guild’s pioneering efforts. You’re so wicked, why did you fool us?”

“So it’s him.” Flaming Red Lips thought back to the terrifying magic the Dragon

Eagle displayed in the video and was a lot more cautious. She then said again,

“Since you tricked us around so much, shouldn’t there be an explanation?” Li Yao replied, “An explanation? From the Leisure Studio?”

“If my analysis is correct, you should be Prairie Fire. Leisure Guild used your method to pioneer, stealing your boss, and their skills are worse than yours. I don’t care if such a shameless studio dies. What I want to know is why you fooled us. Even if you’re really strong, we’re not pushovers,” Flaming Red Lips spoke with unexpectedly firm determination.

Seeing the tension between the two parties, Naihe Qiao stood off to one side, chuckling coldly at the spectacle.

Li Yao slightly raised an eyebrow, “I didn’t feel like I was fooling you.” “You’re still defending yourself!” Silent Lily snapped, furiously. “It was you who mistook me for an NPC, right?” Li Yao spoke patiently.

“It was…but…”

“There’s no ‘but.’ Then I offered a quest, that you accepted. So, tell me, how did I deceive you?”

“You claimed to serve under some queen, isn’t that deceit?” Silent Lily was shaking with anger.

“First, we are strangers, so why should I be honest with you? For instance, if I were to ask for your measurements, would you honestly tell me? Second, the quest was in the form of a contract listed in your quest logs. If you complete the quest, I’ll reward you accordingly. If this equates to tricking you, then I’m at a loss for words.

Li Yao spoke calmly, as if discussing something completely normal.

“You… You damn…” Silent Lily was infuriated beyond words.

“You’re right.” Flaming Red Lips took a deep breath, holding Silent Lily back. “But you pissed me off doing that. As for the quest, I can choose not to turn it in.”

Li Yao shrugged indifferently. “Suit yourself, I can always grind for another one. It’s not a unique item.”

Li Yao was telling the truth, the Queen’s Necklace wasn’t a unique item, but the one who submitted the first necklace would be the only one that could meet the real Queen. The rest would merely trigger quest involving a copy of the Queen, who was not the real one.

In other words, the player who submitted the first necklace would trigger the plot-line and would be etched in history. The rest would merely be activating a mirror copy mode.

Even Flaming Red Lips was speechless now, unable to do anything about this ruthless player.

Firstly, they belonged to the Light Faction, so the necklace was completely useless to them. Even though they had guessed that it was related to a quest, it would be useless if they couldn’t meet the Queen. On the other hand, Li Yao would just need to spend some time grinding for another necklace, trigger the storyline by giving it to the Queen.

“Don’t rush to make a decision. The necklace is useless to you, while I, on the other hand, don’t want to waste time looking for another. Take a look at this blue equipment, then make your decision.”

Staff of Healing

Quality: Blue Fine Attack: 8-9 Intelligence: 9

Spirit: 8

Increases the effect of healing spells by 15%

Equipment Class: Druid, Martial Monk, Priest

Equipment Level: 5

The attributes of this piece of equipment made all the girls from the Baihua Alliance stare, partly due to the attributes, and partly because the magic staff was stunning.

The entire staff resembled a miniature tree entwined with vines, with dense foliage at the top, and blossoms here and there. Petals emanated from the staff, drifting down around Li Yao, filling the area with a hint of fragrance.

“Boss…”

Especially Furong Yu, as the first healer of the Baihua Alliance, this staff would definitely be hers. Not to mention its divine attributes, even the staff’s appearance was a must-have for her collection.

Flaming Red Lips rubbed her forehead helplessly before she finally asked, “Are you sure you are going to give this equipment as a reward for completing the quest?”

“Give me the necklace, I’ll give you this staff, and twenty silver coins for each of you. There’s a system verification, I can’t cheat you,” Li Yao forced his excitement down and responded indifferently.

Flaming Red Lips tossed the necklace to Li Yao, and the staff in his hand floated over to hers. At the same time, his pouch was lighter by a gold coin, each member of her squad receiving their rewards.

Naihe Qiao almost spat out blood; this was a piece of coveted epic equipment in their guild, obtained from the Bovine Gate today. He nearly stepped in but finally held himself back when he thought of the Bovine Gate.

“I assume Baihua Alliance also has a bovine head. With the two we have in our hands, we already have a full set. The sky is now dark, I think we should get to the teleportation as soon as possible,” Naihe Qiao was eager and then said to Li Yao, “Bro, you go first.”

“Move along, ” Li Yao spat out a single word, leisurely storing the necklace in his bag.

Flaming Red Lips understood the implication immediately, saying discontentedly, “You plan to attack even before we get inside, do you? It seems we have to weigh our options now.”

Realizing Naihe Qiao’s plot, everyone else understood as well. If they let Li Yao put down the bovine head first, then he would become useless, of course they would gang up and kill him, not allowing him to enter the Bovine Gate at all.

The female players of the Baihua Alliance also cast wary glances at him. No one likes a treacherous person.

“I am giving you a minute. If you still haven’t placed the bovine head, I am going back. My time is precious, and I have no interest in playing games with you,” Li Yao said.

Naihe Qiao’s face turned from red to white in fury, his fists clenching noisily…
