Chapter 1170: Destroying the Intelligence Hub and Attacking the Caravan
Chapter 1170: Destroying the Intelligence Hub and Attacking the Caravan
Su Yu had set the 17th ring task for Tina as follows:
[Holy Maiden of Aurian (17/100)]
Task Requirements: Assist Tina in destroying the Ghost Party's underground intelligence hub in Aurian's sewers. Eliminate 30 [Corrupted Agents], 30 [Devious Agents], 5 [Mystic Messengers (Elite)], and 1 [Gantrik (Leader)].
Task Rewards: Random rewards based on task completion.
Gantrik is the leader of the Ghost Party's intelligence organization, with a peak 4th-tier strength. His subordinates, the [Mystic Messengers], are also mid 4th-tier in power.
The Ghost Party is infamous for its cruelty, with Gantrik himself known for his heinous acts and the suffering he has inflicted on the people of Aurian.
Tina's mission to clear out the Ghost Party has multiple benefits: it helps the citizens of Aurian, enhances Tina's own strength, and provides significant advantages for Su Yu.
What Su Yu values most is the chance for Gantrik to drop the blueprint for the [Mailbox]. Currently, his territory only has two mailboxes in front of the [Town Hall], and he wants to expand this convenience to all his players.
With this in mind, Su Yu explained the benefits to Tina in detail, convincing her to join him in the mission to destroy the Ghost Party's underground hub.
An hour later, they arrived at the Ghost Party's intelligence hub in Aurian's sewers.
Tina swiftly and decisively destroyed the hub, eliminating Gantrik and all his subordinates.
In the blood-soaked remains of the hub, Tina sat cross-legged on the ground, her eyes closed. The golden rage aura surrounding her boiled like boiling water, indicating a significant boost in her strength.
Su Yu crouched beside her, rummaging through Gantrik's body.
Unfortunately, Gantrik did not drop the [Mailbox] blueprint Su Yu had hoped for. The loot list and task rewards only included some equipment and potions, nothing particularly valuable.
"Looks like my luck was a bit off today. If I had known, I would have had Sky Dragon loot the bodies," Su Yu thought to himself, glancing at Tina.
Tina's aura was rising, and her golden rage had solidified, resembling solid gold.
Using the [Insight] spell, Su Yu checked Tina's stats:
Character: [Tina]
Level: 68 [4th Tier]
Class: Divine Warrior, Knight
Preferences: Petting cats, sweets, [Counter]
"Already at level 68," Su Yu nodded slightly. "Completing one more task should be enough for Tina to reach 5th Tier. Where should we go next?"
As Su Yu pondered, Tina's golden rage aura gradually subsided, and she opened her eyes.
She felt the surge of power within her and nodded in satisfaction. "I'm in excellent condition. I think I'm not far from reaching 5th Tier."
Then, she turned to Su Yu. "And you? Did you find what you were looking for?"
"Nope," Su Yu shrugged. "But it's okay. Let's clean up here and move on to the next place."
Su Yu stood up and helped Tina to her feet. Together, they gathered all the valuable documents from the intelligence hub, packing anything useful to take with them.
The next mission location is on the Moonlight River, west of Oran City.
[Oran City's Holy Maiden (18/100)]
Mission Requirements: Assist Tina in attacking the merchant [Milton Strife]'s caravan, eliminate 30 [Ferocious Kodo Beasts], 30 [Kodo Beast Riders], 5 [Milton's Elite Guards (Elite)], and 1 [Milton Strife (Leader)].
Mission Rewards: Random rewards based on mission completion.
Milton's surname, like that of the city lord Claude, is Strife. They are blood relatives, with Milton being the city lord Claude's uncle.
As one of the commercial leaders of the Strife family, Milton has made his "Nightingale Trading Company" flourish, and it is on the verge of becoming one of the top five trading companies in Oran City.
Today, Milton is leading his elite guards to escort a batch of important goods back to Oran City. Su Yu and Tina show up and, without a word, launch a fierce attack on his caravan.
Milton has four fourth-stage powerhouses under his command, and the captain of the guards, Daniel, has just broken through to the fifth stage, gaining the ability to fly.
However, under the dazzling sword light of Tina and the powerful spells of Su Yu, his elite guards are quickly reduced to a bloody mess, dying one after another.
Milton stands on the back of a carriage, watching the carnage in front of him, feeling his heart bleed.
He had invested countless Psychic Coins and a great deal of effort to build this elite guard, only for it to be wiped out in an instant.
Worse, these two people not only intend to seize his goods but also seem determined to take his life. Milton's mind is in shambles:
"You two bandits, how dare you? I am the uncle of City Lord Claude Strife. The City Lord will never let you go unpunished!"
"Milton Strife, I know exactly who you are," Su Yu says, standing in the sky, looking down at him.
After slaying Milton's fifth-stage guard, Tina is bathed in golden light, successfully advancing to the fifth stage and unlocking her ability to fly.
Thanks to the [Tina Garcia's Blessing] buff, Su Yu's level is synchronized with hers, temporarily granting him the ability to fly as well.
Milton shouts, "You know who I am, yet you dare to attack my caravan? Don't you fear the City Lord's revenge?"
"Ha, I'm not afraid at all," Su Yu says with a slight smile, pulling out a few letters from his backpack.
"First, let me introduce ourselves. I am Kstar, the future disciple of the Guardian Evan Plantagenet. This is Tina Garcia, the newly appointed leader of the Unicorn Knights.
Just moments ago, we raided the underground headquarters of the Ghost Party and found these interesting items. Would you like me to read them to you?"
"Guardian's disciple, Unicorn Knights, Ghost Party..."
Hearing these words, Milton's face changes dramatically.
The Ghost Party is an intelligence organization he secretly supports. If this information leaks, he will be in serious trouble!
Su Yu glances at him and waves a letter in his direction:
"Two years ago, on June 25th, you ordered your subordinates to deliberately blow up the 'Oran Revival Dam' during its renovation. The floodwaters broke through, drowning 800 workers on the riverbed and displacing hundreds of thousands of farmers.
And you, you profited 500,000 Psychic Coins in compensation, didn't you?"
