Chapter 121: Posting the Quest
Chapter 121: Posting the Quest
After posting on the forum, Su Yu copied the content and pasted it into the guild leader chat room.
The guild leader chat room had expanded to 25 members, including the leaders of the largest guilds in the game.
Guild leaders often discussed management strategies in the chat room, collaborated on projects, and built camaraderie.
Thanks to this chat room, many conflicts between large guilds were resolved through mediation rather than outright battles, making the game environment much more harmonious.
Seeing Su Yu's message, several guild leaders immediately chimed in.
Summer's Desolation: "Hey, Star Queller, you're posting another quest. Will this one offer more experience than the last?"
Cloud Shepherd: "I just saw your post on the forum. Why did you post it simultaneously?"
Laser Pointer: "Yeah, you should have posted it in the chat room a couple of hours earlier so we could prepare."
Su Yu replied: "This quest offers a lot more experience than the last one. As for posting it early, that's not possible. If I did, the spots would be taken by large guilds, and regular players would complain."
Cloud Shepherd: "At least give us a rough time frame for when you'll post the quest. I've already used up my game time for today and won't be able to join this time. That's a huge loss!"
True Red-Eyed Black Dragon: "Hehe, old Cloud, that's your own problem! To get this quest, I've been synchronizing my login and logout times with Star Queller for the past two days. I won't have that problem!"
Cloud Shepherd: "Damn! Why didn't I think of that? I miscalculated!"
Su Yu: "Alright, those who can come, do so quickly. Latecomers won't get a spot."
Snow Leopard: "Got it, I'm already in Maple Leaf City."
Laser Pointer: "On my way!"
Snow in July: "I'm on my way too."
The guild leaders responded one after another.
After closing the guild leader chat room, Su Yu began chatting with the people around him.
Standing beside Su Yu were Sky Dragon, Winged Divine Dragon, and Thousand Cups Unfazed.
He had informed them in advance, as they were members of his guild and deserved some preferential treatment.
Sky Dragon, the little girl, had a snow-white howling moon wolf pup by her side. She was playfully ruffling its fur while looking at Su Yu. "Big Brother Star Queller, when are we going to catch a panda?"
While the howling moon wolf was decent, it was nowhere near as valuable as a panda.
"Unfortunately, it will take some time," Su Yu explained. "Pandas aren't available in this version. If you want one, we'll have to go to another continent. I'll send Thousand Cups Unfazed to a secret location to complete the quest either today or tomorrow. Once he returns, he can bring back a panda pup."
"Really? How long will it take?" Sky Dragon's big eyes sparkled with anticipation.
"About a month. He'll need to complete the entire trial before he can return."
"A month? That's so long!"
Sky Dragon clenched her little fists at Thousand Cups Unfazed. "Do your best, Big Brother Thousand Cups Unfazed! When you come back, I'll make sure to give you and the guild leader a satisfying reward!"
Thousand Cups Unfazed smiled at her but remained silent.
In reality, he was a bit worried. He wasn't sure if the "Warrior" class would suit him.
In real life, he was a martial arts master. If the Warrior class's skills were all fantastical moves like "Great Wasteland Heavenly Prison Finger" or "Great Wasteland Starfall," or even something silly like "Pine Flex Lightning Whip," it would be a huge disappointment.
Seeing his concern, Su Yu laughed. "Don't worry, you'll definitely be satisfied with that class. Before you officially join, you'll have to complete a series of trial quests where you can get a feel for the class's skills. If you're not happy, you can back out at any time. I won't force you."
"That's a relief, thank you, guild leader!" Thousand Cups Unfazed sighed in relief.
"Don't thank me, it's a mutual benefit. The players are here, so let's get the quests started."
Players from around Maple Leaf City were already converging from all directions.
A long line of players emerged from the teleportation gates, appearing at the end of the city's main thoroughfare.
Su Yu summoned the mission proxy interface, and a golden exclamation mark appeared above his head.
Seeing the exclamation mark, the three players quickly accepted the mission.
Ding! Congratulations, you've triggered the large-scale scenario mission [The Escape of the Imperiled].
Mission Overview: On her way back to Golden Sparrow City, Imperial Princess Aija was ambushed by rebels. The rebels are powerful, and the princess's escort is no match for them.
Mission Requirements: Assist the princess in escaping the encirclement. Princess Aija must survive.
Mission Rewards: 4,500 experience points, 15 Psychic Coins.
This scenario mission was more challenging than the previous one, so the rewards were 50% higher.
After accepting the mission, Sky Dragon and the others stepped aside to let other players take the mission.
Players rushed to Su Yu's side to accept the mission, many of them shouting excitedly:
"Ha-ha! I got the mission... 4,500 experience points?!"
"4,500 points! For real? That's so much!"
"Thank goodness we came early, or the big guilds would have taken all the rewards!"
"Thanks, Overlord Kesheng, for giving us the mission!"
"Overlord Kesheng, do you need a girlfriend in real life? I'm an 8 out of 10 and can keep you warm in bed..."
...
Su Yu greeted the players and politely declined the more inappropriate requests with a smile.
In the crowd, Su Yu noticed a few familiar faces.
"Overlord Kesheng, I'm here!" True Red-Eyed Black Dragon jogged over.
"It's you, Little Red! You got here fast!" Su Yu waved.
"Little Red?" True Red-Eyed Black Dragon hesitated; it was the first time anyone had called him that.
At the same time, Snow Leopard arrived at the city gates with a large group of guild members.
"Senior, I'm here!" Snow Leopard called out from a distance.
"Little Leopard, you're here too!"
Snow Leopard's smile froze. "Uh, can you not call me 'Little Leopard'?"
"Sure! What should I call you then? 'Little Snow,' 'Little Flower'?" Su Yu laughed.
Snow Leopard: "..."
The surrounding players almost burst out laughing, finding it hilarious that the formidable leader of the top guild could be teased like this. However, they dared not laugh out loud, fearing Snow Leopard's authority and reputation, so they struggled to keep their composure.
...
Snow Leopard and his guild members came over to accept the mission.
As they got closer, Su Yu noticed that Snow Leopard had massive dark circles under his eyes, giving him an almost ethereal appearance. It was clear he hadn't slept in days.
But it made sense. Someone in Snow Leopard's position would have a lot of responsibilities, both in-game and in real life. He probably needed to log in for 12 hours a day to level up, making sleep a luxury.
"Snow Leopard, how long have you been without sleep? Don't you worry about sudden death?" Su Yu asked.
"It's fine," Snow Leopard smiled. "The game has a vital signs monitoring system. If it detects that my vital signs are too low, it will log me out. I'll rest then."
Su Yu: "..."
Those words were heart-wrenching. It seemed Snow Leopard had experienced this many times.
It was clear that the pressure on the relevant authorities was immense.
At the same time, Su Yu glanced at the [Sixth-Rank Temporary Experience Scroll] in his inventory. If he could get any more life-saving items, he would use the scroll in real life.
Securing another Psychic Spring would likely help alleviate some of the pressure on the authorities.
