After the Gaim: the Sky Horizon and the Gamers’ turf was completed, Xi Wei had additionally arrange a number of bizarre, experimental services.
Certainly one of them was the bulletin board which was separate from the Gamers’ quest web page, posted with quests that Xi Wei was relying on the Gamers to perform.
And in the intervening time, one of many extra rewarding quests was the investigation of the traditional Mecha Big’s origins.
In any case, that factor’s weight had been on the market for all to see: it was not tough to hint its footsteps when it was leaving a crater each few hundred meters.
As compared, the hunt to analyze the origins of the undead excessive elf was much less in style regardless that the reward was equally beneficiant.
That was additionally the explanation why as soon as a clue was discovered and the hunt to analyze the undead excessive elf was achieved, the Participant who took the hunt would be capable to declare all of the rewards.
That was why Terry and Jom ultimately selected that quest after speaking about it.
Leonginet was a small city within the Tegrono Federation, past the borders of the Valla Empire.
After rescuing the adventurer named Caius sheerly by probability, the older adventurer determined to place his journey to the Valla Empire on maintain, main his two saviors (and one canine) to the border city.
Caius had assumed that Terry and Jom had come after listening to in regards to the rumors concerning the Valla Empire. Nonetheless, he didn’t suppose that they might be uninterested within the Valla Empire, and as a substitute requested about any rumors of bizarre undead creatures not too long ago.
“I’m sorry, however there was no phrase on such incidents not too long ago… even the Valley of the Tragic Lifeless which normally sees a lot undead exercise has been very quiet this yr…”
The adventurer who managed to flee his life instructed the 2 youths earnestly in a tavern inside Leonginet.
He fastidiously studied the 2 youths who had clearly grew previous their teenage years not too long ago, and couldn’t assist including, “It has been years since there was a plague of undead. Many countries had even withdrawn their insurance policies that reward searching undead, and there wouldn’t be a lot revenue even should you guess your life to destroy among the stronger ones. In response to what I do know, among the well-known undead hunters had even modified jobs to grow to be bounty hunters!”
When he noticed the considerate appears on his two saviors’ faces, Caius tried even tougher and continued, “Examine to that, it’s higher should you pin your hopes on Valla!”
Terry, who had been gnawing at a hen’s leg appeared up, however Jom stopped him with a glance simply when he was about to say that that they had come from the Valla Empire.
“What’s with Valla?” Jom then requested nonchalantly.
“That’s what I’ve been telling you. There’s a substantial amount of issues taking place in Valla not too long ago!”
Jom’s query appeared to have scratched Caius’s itch, and he started to talk with a vigorous tone, “First off, there’s that mysterious competitors referred to as the Twin Metropolis Cup. It’s mentioned that the victory may get hold of the blessings of the gods, incomes them energy to match dragons!”
Jom appeared puzzled.
He naturally is aware of in regards to the Twin Metropolis Cup
-in reality, he had managed to succeed in the Third Spherical of the tourney.
That being mentioned, though the rewards of the tourney had certainly been improbable, it was an exaggeration to say that something gained there may match a dragon. As a matter of reality, Mufasa, the champion of the tourney had his butt handed to him each in opposition to the tortoise colossus and the Mecha Big…
There was definitely no telling how phrase of the Twin Metropolis Cup had grow to be so distorted when it spreads to international soil.
“After which there are the wooden elves who’re making their return! That they had not left Trinia for a whole lot of years, however for them to come back again to the people’ realm with such timing… it needs to be due to the wooden elves’ best treasure!”
Caius had a glance of utter admiration simply then
— the typical wooden elf was far stronger than people, and one thing that was a treasure to them could be much more treasured to people. “If anybody may discover it, they wouldn’t have to fret in regards to the latter half of their lives!”
“I see… are you aware what the wooden elves’ best treasure is, then?” Jom requested.
“Oh, how am I alleged to know that?” Caius answered matter-of-factly. “However since it’s the best treasure, it should be one thing anybody would acknowledge after they see it, reminiscent of a sacred crystal that shines in rainbow colours, or some pure origin stone which had been cleansed of internal evils!”
Regrettably, your guess is totally unsuitable.
Having some insider info, Jom watched Caius with out a phrase—this man wouldn’t acknowledge a factor even when the wooden elves’ best treasure have been to be positioned proper in entrance of him.
Furthermore, the explanation the wooden elves would seem earlier than people was solely as a result of the Church of Video games’ success in claiming management over the Elven Synchronized Mind Nation’, in flip remolding it into Gaim, the Gamers’ turf.
And that in flip slowly modified the mindsets of the wooden elves despite preexisting enmities.
Although they might nonetheless look down on people as normally, most of them now acknowledged that the Gamers are beings whom even the excessive elves acknowledge. They have been definitely not upset when youthful elves who thought effectively of Gamers would group up with them too.
“By the way in which, talking of undead, it appears that there have been rumors of an undead dragon in Valla. That mentioned, it had been a while because the rumors circulated, and I imagine that it was nothing however a hoax since there had been no continuation.”
Caius then continued on to different rumors, with Terry and Jom maintaining a straight face as they let him talk-especially since that they had personally skilled that specific occasion.
“Then, there’s that enormous machine that left the world shaking in its wake…”
…which had a big group of Gamers retracing its footsteps, and it wouldn’t imply a factor even when Jom and Terry joined them now…
“And a mysterious metropolis above the clouds!”
We simply obtained off that metropolis…
Therefore, Terry and Jom traded glances.
Might this man don’t have any helpful info except for outdated particulars of the Church of Video games’ latest occasions?
At that very thought, Jom’s curiosity waned, whereas Terry threw his hen bone right down to Pikes beneath their desk out of boredom.
That was when the tavern door opened, and a woman sporting heavy armor stood appeared with a number of knights sporting the identical armor in tow.
The model of these armors appeared prefer it belonged to the Valla Empire as a substitute of the Tegrono Federation.
Federation residents within the tavern have been definitely nervous for a gaggle like this to point out up at Leonginet, a city inside the borders of Tegrono, fearful that the newly coronated emperor with a horrible mood was about to invade the federation.
Nonetheless, others reminiscent of Caius have been fairly calm.
He whispered to Terry and Jom then, “That woman’s title is Kristina. She’s a Scepter of the Temple of Glory, though her jurisdiction is within the Valla Empire and he or she normally wouldn’t come to those lands. It’s mentioned that she is main her group of their seek for a particularly harmful magical beast… however gossip had it that their goal isn’t any beast however a excessive elf!”
There was a glint in Jom’s eyes at these phrases.
Lastly, a helpful clue.
