After more than forty minutes, Zhao Xun finally caught up with his slowly meandering [teammate].
He chose a deserted, dark alley and took off the [Goddess's Wings] before heading toward the yellow dot.
Before long, he spotted his teammate.
Male.
A short buzz cut.
Under five foot seven, with a stocky build and a round, broad face.
He looked about thirty-five, but there was nothing mature or steady about him. Instead, he had an air of sly cleverness.
The moment he saw Zhao Xun, his eyes lit up.
He hurried over to Zhao Xun and held out a hand. "Hello, hello! I'm your teammate!"
Zhao Xun didn't shake his hand, merely nodding politely. "Hello."
The man didn't mind. He withdrew his hand and said with a smile, "I saw you moving so fast on the map. I'd only covered this little distance, and you were already here. How did you get here?"
"That's not important." Since no pop-up related to the chain quest had appeared in front of him, Zhao Xun asked, "Have the chain quest details appeared on your end?"
The man fell silent for two seconds and stared at the space in front of him for a moment before shaking his head. "Not yet."
Zhao Xun stepped closer to the man, thought for a moment, then reached out and patted his shoulder.
The man looked bewildered. "What's that for?"
"We've met up, but the chain quest prompt hasn't appeared. Maybe it's because we haven't made physical contact," Zhao Xun explained. "So I thought I'd try."
As soon as he finished speaking, a pop-up appeared in front of him.
