Chapter 990 - Preparations Before Assassination (1/2)
”Ding! The cultists have opened the Chronos Gate and an Ancient God has arrived!”
”Ding! The High Human's Heavenly Court has issued a public Quest. Anyone who discovers traces of the Ancient God can report to their nearest main city to get rewards!”
The two system announcements were repeated up to ten times. This had never happened in ”Dawn Break” before!
Almost all the players were shocked by the two system announcements. Although the Quest Rewards were tempting, it was not easy to track an Ancient God.
This time, the Ancient God did not arrive in the form of a Secret Dungeon, so his coordinates were not fixed. He would probably appear near a certain city, then launch an attack and disappear after the massacre. It was difficult for the High Humans to hunt him down and kill him.
Therefore, the High Human's Heavenly Court released such a Quest, asking the adventurers to discover the whereabouts of this Ancient God. However, to the players, this was not an easy Quest.
First of all, you had to obtain information about the whereabouts of this Ancient God. This depended entirely on luck. You could encounter him while leveling, or you would not see him even if you searched around for an entire month. Chances of anything happening were extremely volatile.
It was not easy to encounter an Ancient God, and it was even harder to track one down. If players encountered the Ancient God, they would not get rewards if they just returned to the main city and reported it. They had to continuously provide the Ancient God's coordinates until the High Human NPCs managed to catch up to him.
This way, it was impossible for someone to complete this Quest alone. Players had to work in a team of two at least. One person had to find and track the Ancient God, while the other would be in charge of reporting the information. This was the only way they would be able to complete this Quest.
However, tracking an Ancient God was not something just anyone could do. An Ancient God was a Celestial-tier NPC. If you stayed too far, you would lose them easily. If you got too close, the Ancient God would detect and kill you instantly. So, to complete this Quest, players did not only need luck, but also skill.
”Guild master, are we doing this Quest?” Lady Casanova sent Jiang Fei a message. After all, Jiang Fei was closer to the High Human's Heavenly Court. It was likely that he would be able to get some insider information.
”Just tell the members to continue leveling up. If they encounter him, report it. If they don't, there's no need for them to specially look for him.” Jiang Fei frowned. Frankly speaking, he did not really want his guild members to focus on this Quest.
One had to know that the Ancient God was a Celestial-tier NPC. He could teleport anywhere. If he realized that some players were tracking him, he would instantly kill all of them and teleport away. So, average players were simply delusional if they thought they could track him down.
”Alright. If any of them encounters the Ancient God, I'll make sure they report it in the guild channel.” Lady Casanova nodded.
”Sounds good!” Jiang Fei suddenly had an idea. Although it was difficult for an average player to do this Quest, he could probably try it out!
Of course, Jiang Fei's so-called ”try it out” was not to follow the Ancient God around and report it to the High Human NPCs. Instead, he wanted to try and see if he could kill this Ancient God!
