A Fortuitous Reunion
"Little Fish, throw away that quest item!"
Yu Xiaoyu narrowly avoided several attacks, and just when he was in imminent danger, Fairy Jingzhe called out to him.
"I can..."
"Throw it away!"
"All right!"
Although Yu Xiaoyu believed she could handle it, Fairy Jingzhe didn't want her to take the risk.
Yu Xiaoyu has already made it into the top ten in the Individual Competition. If she loses her equipment because of helping her with the quest, she won't forgive herself easily, given her personality.
Yu Xiaoyu clearly knew this too, so he simply threw away the ornament in his hand.
The moment the ornament left their hands, the creature with the lifelike expression vanished before everyone's eyes.
"Holy crap! What is this thing? Is it really that amazing?" Night Owl.
"Something's not right! If this thing is invincible, what's the difference between 10 people coming and one person coming?" Sword of Miracles.
"Is there some detail we've missed?" Lin Qimeng asked.
"How about we just forget about it?" Fairy Jingzhe.
"No!" everyone exclaimed.
"I don't believe it, there really is such an awesome mission." Sword of Miracles.
Just as everyone was looking for a solution, several black dots were rapidly approaching from the sky, and in the blink of an eye, they were right in front of them.
"Who are you people? Don't you know that stealing the Planetary Source is a capital offense?"
The newcomers were several high-level Mecha. They looked down at the crowd, and one of the Mecha, which looked like a ferocious demon with a blue face and fangs, spoke.
Everyone: "???"
"There must be some misunderstanding," Lin Qimeng said as she stepped forward, then explained their purpose to the NPCs.
"Impossible! If you were just looking for ornaments, how could you possibly trigger the Planetary Will to retaliate? The Planetary Source Guardians wouldn't appear unless you touched them!" said the pilot of the ferocious Mecha.
"We have no reason to lie to you. Look, the ornament we're looking for is right there!" said Fairy Jingzhe.
"Holy crap! Who the hell uses a bracelet made from the Planetary Source? That's fucking awesome!" exclaimed one of the menacing mechs behind the Mecha.
"I remember who it is!"
"I remember now!"
"That gentleman isn't... right, it's the lady. Sigh~ it seems she doesn't want to believe it!"
The NPCs, one after another, revealed a lot of information to the people from the Future, suggesting that this seemingly simple love story is not so simple after all!
"Since you've come looking for something that's already owned, we won't pursue theft charges against you. But how do you plan to take this thing out of here?"
The Sphere Star's Planetary Will manifests as Guardians, making him virtually invincible on this Planet.
Only if you ten find its weakness, defeat it, and gain the Sphere Star's approval can you possibly take this thing out. They will only be harmed by Weakness Attack.
However, judging from the size of the Guardians just now, we need to attack at least ten of its weak points, and the time difference between the first and last attack cannot be more than 30 seconds. Can you manage that?"
The menacing Mecha said, essentially telling everyone how to complete the mission.
He finished speaking and left without waiting for anyone's reply.
"Although he's a bit ugly, he's really a good person!" Fairy Jingzhe said, watching the departing group of people.
"Um... can't you tell he did it on purpose?"
"I could tell from his voice, but I could tell he was a good person!"
"Captain, won't it cause problems if you just tell these people how to deal with the Guardians like this?" one of the departing people asked the pilot of the ferocious Mecha.
"It's alright, I trust my master's wife's judgment, and with this, she can certainly help my Master!" the man said.
After the group left, Lin Qimeng and the others picked up the bracelet again and summoned the Expression Guardian.
"We're short on time, we need to hurry!" Sister Hua said, looking at the enormous Guardians in front of her.
"Receive!"
After everyone agreed, they flew towards it together, and then Xiao Hai took the bracelet and started to run away.
"Found it! His body has patterns, and the place where these patterns converge is his weakness." The Sword of Miracles was still powerful; it didn't take long for them to discover the Guardians's weakness.
"Good, pinpoint the location but don't attack!" Sister Hua.
The reason for this is to prevent the monsters from changing their weaknesses if they are not killed in one attack. It's not surprising that monsters in this game would do this.
"I've found them all, but one is underneath me," Song in the Clouds.
"It's alright, I'll handle what's below him once he jumps up." -Sword of Miracles
"Alright! Point 1 in the clouds, point 2 in front of Xiao Hai... point 10 below Miracle, get into position, we'll move in the next time he jumps!" Sister Hua.
As a top-tier team in the game, the Future players made excellent decisions and quickly determined their attack positions.
As the Expression Guardian leaped again, everyone immediately used their skills at the same time and accurately attacked the Guardians's weak point.
The moment the Guardians was hit by the group's attacks, it slowly dissipated before their eyes.
Future seeing the situation, everyone immediately evacuated to their spaceship and then launched the ship, leaving this dangerous place.
Not long after they left, the ground there began to collapse, and all the original human-built remains disappeared.
However, the members of the Future Guild did not see these things. After leaving this Planet, they returned to the Planet they came from and were teleported back to their Homeworld Base.
The moment they stepped out of the Teleportation Array, they ran into Old Wang was returning from a mission.
"What's going on here?" Old Wang asked, looking at the tense crowd.
"Phew~ It's nothing, just a small problem." Lin Qimeng.
They didn't know why they were fleeing; they just felt that if they didn't, something very serious would happen. Fortunately, that feeling disappeared after they returned to their Homeworld Base.
Then everyone gave Old Wang a brief account of their mission. When Old Wang heard about the blue-faced, Mecha, he interrupted them and asked:
"Are you sure it's a blue-faced, fanged monster? How many arms does it have?"
"I'm sure, there are definitely two arms!" Lin Qimeng.
"Not two, but four, only two of them haven't been touched!" Sword of Miracles.
"As expected! Fairy, may I go with you to see that person?"
"Of course!"
"What happened? What's wrong?"
"We'll talk about it on the way."
On the way to the location where Fairy Jingzhe would hand in her quest, Old Wang mentioned General Huang's defection to everyone in the Chat Channel.
"General Huang defected?! But what does that have to do with Fairy's mission?" Lin Qimeng asked, puzzled.
"Because General Huang's Mecha is called Six-Armed Wisdom King, and it's similar to the Mecha you saw. Your mission is related to General Huang, and I need to go see if that person knows anything secret. But I don't have enough information right now!" Old Wang.
Old Wang and his group soon arrived at their destination: a house with a yard built on the Homeworld Base.
This place looks really off; the art style is so different from the other buildings!
I knew the Homeworld Base was huge, but even at its largest, it was still an interstellar spaceship! How could such a wasteful building exist?
To put this into perspective, it's equivalent to building a villa in Beijing CBD!
Just as Fairy Jingzhe stepped forward to knock on the door, the door suddenly opened by itself, and a melodious voice came from inside, saying, "Come in!"
"This... Fairy, when you... when you accepted the mission, was this place like this too?" Lin Qimeng said with a somewhat unnatural expression.
As she spoke, she leaned closer to Old Wang and then secretly tugged at Old Wang sleeve.
"What's wrong?" Fairy Jingzhe asked, puzzled.
"You... don't you watch movies? Haunted houses are all like this!" Lin Qimeng.
"Goose! Goose! Goose! Goose! Goose! My cousin has been terrified of these Ghost- like things since she was little!"
"It's alright, I'm here," Old Wang said, taking her hand and walking inside. He felt every cell in the body of this fearless person behind him was resisting, and he inexplicably wanted to laugh.
After everyone entered, the door behind them closed, which made Lin Qimeng even more frightened.
She practically walked into the room with her eyes closed, but it turned out she was overthinking it; the room wasn't dark and there were no Ghost.
On the contrary, everything in this private room was very tidy, and although there was some smoke, it was filled with sunlight.
