Chapter 11 – Bounty Mission
Three simple moves caused Li Cangyu to feel very suspicious of the true level of this terran swordsman but he wasn't certain if the player was a professional. There were many passersby in China who didn't want to play in the Professional League.
In any case, he would be able to find out some clues when they teamed up together. There was no need to be too anxious to figure out the swordsman's identity.
Li Cangyu thought this as he talked with the NPC and took the bounty task.
The goal of this mission was to escort the the businessman Erdos to the black market not far outside Yisu City. Successfully completing the task would give 10,000 experience per person and a total of 1,000 coins.
The bounty mission gave experience to everyone while the gold coins were equally divided between teammates. If a person's level was enough, they could do it alone and the reward would naturally be the highest. But in order to avoid being robbed in the game, most players would make a full six player team and there were few people like Li Cangyu who would do a bounty mission with only three players.
Once they received the task, the NPC Erdos had an 'escort' character icon. This large icon was simply giving other players a signal— Come and rob me! I have experience and money to steal!
The three people escorted Erdos to the target point. As soon as they left the city, three system mobs moved to intercept the NPC and were directly killed by Blossoming Tree.
A swordsman was the most aggressive among melee classes. At level 20, they could learn low level group attack skills. It wasn't unusual for Blossoming Tree to take care of the mobs in the seconds. Li Cangyu didn't say much, just escorting the NPCs to move on.
They had only taken a few steps after handling the mobs before meeting a team with unified IDs.
The other captain saw the escort icon on top of the NPC and directly moved to intercept.
In order to prevent the NPC from being killed by several teams at the same time, the bounty mission would be transmitted to a separate instance space. The two parties and the NPC were sent to the separate instance, allowing them to launch a fair battle without being disturbed by outsiders.
In this instance space, the escorts must protect the NPC. The killers only needed to kill the NPC to get the rewards, but if they failed, their experience and gold coins would be added to the final mission rewards.
A bounty mission was risky but also extraordinarily stimulating. It was the favourite gameplay of the major guild masters.
Li Cangyu looked around after being transferred to the independent instance and quickly discovered who was making trouble.
—The Wind and Clouds are Light, the Wind is Leisurely, the Wind Flutters, Wind is Small and Obedient, Wind has Unmatched Style, Wind Flower Snow and Moon.
The IDs all starting with 'Wind' and the unified guild icon over all six heads were really obvious!
Bai Xuan also recognized them and couldn't help exclaiming, It is the Wind Colour Guild!]
Li Cangyu spoke calmly, "You will add blood to the NPC while I will take care of them."
After entering the instance, the battle list appeared showing the player IDs on both sides. The other side had a complete six player elite team while Li Cangyu only had Love to Eat Braised Fish, Love to Eat Twice-cooked Pork and Blossoming Tree... three people!
The vice president of the Wind Colour Guild, Wind and Clouds are Light was surprised and couldn't help saying in the voice channel, "Three people doing a bounty mission, their courage is too big!"
