Chapter 169 - Chapter 169: Chapter 122: The New Escort Task (2/2)
“I wonder how Han Fu is doing now.”
Before this, he encountered not only Zhou Lingyin in Kun Tian Prison but also another martial artist named Han Fu.
Han Fu also gave him a task, asking him to pass his storage ring to Liu Qing’er of Yuxu Sect.
However, the Yuxu Sect was not in Tianyun County, so it was impossible for him to complete this task in a short time.
Two days ago, Security Chief Fatty Li approved Su Nan’s one-month vacation, and today was his last day on duty.
“Brother Nan, why didn’t you come yesterday?”
Upon arriving at the hotel, Wang Chong immediately approached Su Nan and asked.
“I wasn’t feeling well yesterday and took a day off,” Su Nan casually made an excuse.
To meet the deadline for the survival tasks yesterday, he spent most of the day in the game, traveling.
“Really?”
Wang Chong looked suspicious and changed the topic jokingly, “Didn’t you go on a date with some girl?”
“I would love to, but unfortunately, no one wants to date me!” Su Nan replied with a smile.
Hearing that, Wang Chong got excited, “Brother Nan, if you want to find someone to date, you should have told me earlier. I told you before that I have a cousin…”
Before Wang Chong could finish speaking, Su Nan interrupted, “Stop right there, don’t bring up your cousin again.”
Then, he changed the topic and asked, “I heard that the survival task in the Demon World game ended yesterday. How did you rank?”
Unsatisfied, Wang Nan complained, “Don’t even mention it. Just before the task ended, I finally managed to integrate the second Demon Sutra, ranking at 4,200.”
Su Nan nodded, “Not bad, considering that you started the game later than others, achieving such results is already very good.”
“But it’s nothing compared to Miss Bai!
Wang Chong shook his head and said, “Miss Bai is now ranked as a Great God at number ten.”
“Even the dozen other beauties, with the help of Miss Bai, have ranked above me. As the most handsome guy in the Dream Guild, I ended up in last place. It’s so frustrating!”
While talking about it, he suddenly sighed, “That Wang Nan who ranked first is terrifying. I wonder what rewards he got for his ranking. Last night, his first Spirit Grade Demon Technique reached Great Perfection, leaving the rest of the players far behind!”
No wonder those people in black and the officials are looking for him frantically. It seems this Wang Nan really has some secret.”
At the mention of this, Su Nan’s curiosity piqued, “Is this Wang Nan really so mysterious? Even the officials couldn’t find him?”
Wang Chong conspiratorially said, “I heard from Miss Bai that officials and those fake Wang Nan people in black who pretended to be him are searching like mad. They’ve practically turned Donglin City upside-down.”
“I also heard that they found a way to distinguish martial artists from ordinary people. There are now people secretly patrolling all exits out of Donglin City, and a large-scale search will soon be carried out here!”
A method to distinguish martial artists from ordinary people?
Upon hearing that, Su Nan’s heart sank.
They’re forcing his hand!
“By the way, Brother Nan, did you get a game bracelet in this public test?” Wang Chong asked casually.
“No!” Su Nan shook his head.
“What a pity!” Wang Chong sighed.
“Don’t worry, there were only 10 million people tested this time, and there will be more people next time. Maybe it will be my turn then,” Su Nan smiled.
“I hope so.”
As it was his last day on duty, Su Nan finished work early.
He returned home at 5:30 PM.
He planned to pack up everything in advance and be ready to leave at any time.
However, when he saw the gigantic game warehouse, he was conflicted once again.
The game warehouse was too big to carry.
But without the game warehouse, he couldn’t even log in to the game.
“Maybe I can exchange my in-game storage ring for real life.”
Suddenly, Su Nan thought of a solution and his eyes lit up.
The previous announcement clearly stated that the second public test would open up the feature to exchange in-game items for real ones.
As long as he could exchange the storage ring for real life, all problems would be solved.
“It seems I won’t be able to leave tomorrow,” Su Nan shook his head.
Today was only the second day, and the second public test would not be held until tomorrow.
“Well, I’ll wait one more day. There shouldn’t be any problems within a day,” he concluded.
Log in to the game.
As Su Nan looked at the tasks of the three characters, he frowned again.
For the three characters’ daily tasks, besides Lang Thirteen’s player hunting task, he had no other tasks to do.
“More than 6 hours left till the game refreshes, what kind of tasks will it refresh if I use the Daily Task Refresh Card now?”
Having an idea, he took out a Daily Task Refresh Card.
[Do you want to use the Daily Task Refresh Card to refresh today’s Daily Tasks?]
“Yes!”
[You have used the Task Refresh Card, and your Daily Task 1 has been refreshed.]
At the moment, Su Nan was using Zhang Yang’s character, and the refresh was Zhang Yang’s daily task.
[Daily Task 1: Hunt down and kill a mortal-level demon]
[Daily Task 2: Hunt a Spirit-level Monster]
[Daily Task 3: Escort Ji Changfeng to Tianyun County]
“Escort Ji Changfeng?”
Ignoring the first two tasks, Su Nan was instantly drawn to the third task, his eyes showing surprise.
Originally, the task was “Follow the Demon Hunting Bureau and escort the Green Gold Stone to Tianyun County.”
Now it had changed to escort Ji Changfeng to Tianyun County.
This change in the task was obviously not just because the Green Gold Stone had been stolen. More importantly, Ji Changfeng had been seriously injured and his strength had greatly decreased. He now needed others to escort him to Tianyun County.
“Could it be that Ji Changfeng, despite being heavily injured, wants to go to Tianyun County to ask for reinforcements against the Black Cloud Pig Demon?”
Su Nan thought of a possibility.
This was highly likely. Since Ji Changfeng couldn’t take on the Black Cloud Pig Demon on his own and wanted to reclaim the Green Gold Stone, he would naturally have to ask for reinforcements.
“Perhaps I could take this opportunity to familiarize myself with the Demon Hunting Bureau again,” Su Nan thought.
When he told Ji Changfeng about the Black Cloud Pig Demon’s location before, Ji Changfeng had said that he would ask the County Magistrate to reward him once they arrived in Tianyun County.
Although Ji Changfeng had failed, if he could escort him to Tianyun County, he could still earn considerable favor.
In this way, he might have the chance to get in touch with the higher-ups of Tianyun County..
