“Ding! Congratulations! You’ve triggered the hidden quest, [Centaur’s Lingering Feelings]. Do you accept?
“Accept. ”
Since the hidden quest that was triggered was related to Tina, might as well do it within the flow.
“Ding! You’ve accepted the hidden quest, [Centaur’s Lingering Feelings (Rare) 1/10].”
“Quest Description: Take the red foal to Orleans City, find the warrior guild supervisor Quinn, and ask her why Tina abandoned her mount.”
“Quest Reward: 200 Experience Points.”
“Chief Uncle, I’ll take my leave then.” Su Yu, having mounted the little mule, waved goodbye to the village chief.
The little mule neighed softly in compliance, showing no resistance to Su Yu riding it. It might be because it smelled its master Tina’s scent on Su Yu.
“Wait a moment, adventurer!” The village chief called back Su Yu while waving his hand.
“Is there something else?”
“Of course, important matters.” The chief took out a notebook and scribbled in it for a while, then tore off a few pages from the book and handed them to Su
“Take these pages to the royal capital of Goldfinch City and find Royal Guard Keledron of the Princess. He will tell you how to meet the princess.”
“Ding! Your main quest has been updated! [Glory of the Goldfinch Empire (2/100)].”
“Quest Requirement: Head to Goldfinch City, find Royal Guard Keledron of the Princess, and find out how to meet the princess.”
“Quest Reward: 500 Experience Points.”
Su Yu took a look at the papers from the village chief, the contents mainly describing the crimes committed by the Star-forged Dragon King when he attacked the novice village.
“Alright, Chief. I will inform the princess as soon as I can.”
Su Yu once again said goodbye to the village chief and left, riding the horse.
He walked along the village on the little mule, which cooperated with every command Su Yu gave. Whether he asked it to turn left or make a U-turn, it obeyed obediently.
The only downside was that it ran too slowly, but everything else was okay.
“Maybe Tina abandoned the little mule in order to become a ‘Unicorn Knight’, I wonder what the final reward of the quest will be…” Su Yu mused.
But Su Yu forgot, players at this stage don’t have mounts!
Riding the little mule along the village path, players on both sides of the road all turned their attention to him:
“Who is that? How come he is riding a horse?”
“I heard players can only ride mounts at level 10.”
“There is only one level 10 player on the leaderboard… Is this the great player Nemesis?!”
“Great player Nemesis, sponsor me! Power level me!”
Players recognized Su Yu and crowded around him enthusiastically.
The road in front was quickly blocked by the crowd.
Seeing the throng of people gathering, Su Yu realized he shouldn’t have been gallivanting around on a horse.
So Su Yu quickly dismounted and unsummoned the little mule in his mount column.
The little mule disappeared on the spot, and a red horse token appeared in Su Yu’s pack.
With this horse token, Su Yu can summon the little mule again.
At this point, the players had already completely surrounded him. Some female players even started to reach out and touch him.
Frightened, Su Yu quickly used [Invisibility Skill], as well as [Flash Skill] to dodge within a small range, barely avoiding these female players’ “wandering hands”.
Three seconds later, the [Invisibility Skill] effect took place, and Su Yu had a narrow escape.
The players only saw Su Yu’s figure gradually fading, and then no shadow of him was left.
The target had suddenly vanished, leaving the players looking at each other:
“Where is he? Where is he?”
“Did he log off?”
“Then we’ll hold our ground here until Nemesis logs in!”
“Yes, we’ll stand guard together.”
The players stayed around the spot where Su Yu had cast [Invisibility Skill], unwilling to disperse.
“Alas! It seems like I can’t ride a horse to the main city anymore.”
Su Yu sighed and arrived at the dungeon merchant, Jenny’s side.
After spending 20 spiritual energy coins on a level 10 dungeon ticket, three portals appeared behind Jenny.
Each portal represented a dungeon.
These three dungeons were different from the level 5 dungeon.
The level 5 dungeon was built on monsters, whereas the three level 10 dungeons were built on real events of Annie.
Annie was the little girl NPC who once led the Star-forged Dragon King to chase after Su Yu, she was also one of only two heroines in the novice village.
The first dungeon, its name was [Little Annie the Match-Seller].
It told the story of Annie selling matches on the street when she was five years old.
“Would you buy a matchstick?”
At the time, it was snowing heavily. Annie was cold and hungry without shoes, yet no one bought her matches.
With lips turning purplish-black, she struck the first match and saw a warm stove;
Struck the second match, she saw a delicious roast goose;
Struck the third match, she saw a beautiful Christmas tree;
Struck the fourth match, she saw her long-lost grandmother.
These were Annie’s four dreams.
On the brink of freezing to death, she awakened her witch’s abilities, and a large number of nightmare monsters appeared in her dreams, threatening to plunge the entire city into slumber.
The players’ task was to enter the four dreams and eliminate the nightmare monsters to prevent Annie from freezing to death and the city from being overrun by these monsters.
The second dungeon was called [Little Annie and the Big Bad Wolf].
The story moved on to when Annie was seven and had been adopted by a wizard couple.
One day, Annie went to deliver food to her grandmother in the forest, only to find that her grandmother had been eaten by a big bad wolf.
A bear from the forest could not stand by and watch. It cut open the wolf’s belly with the player’s help, freeing Annie’s grandmother.
Annie was extremely grateful to the bear.
Nevertheless, as Annie had now become evil, she enslaved the bear with her spell, turning it into her own toy.
The third dungeon was named [Amumu’s Tragedy].
This dungeon narrated the love story of Annie.
A little mummy named “Amumu” was in love with Annie, but she rejected him. Annie had a fondness for a Yordle named “Teemo”.
Amumu suffered a great blow. He began to indulge in self-destruction, completely immersing himself in his fantasy world.
What the players’ needed to do was enter Amumu’s fantasy world, get rid of the monsters inside, to prevent them from multiplying, spreading, and consuming his brain.
Su Yu had cleared these three dungeons many times and was very familiar with their mechanisms.
But at this point, he could only choose the [Amumu’s Tragedy] dungeon, as the other two dungeons were impossible to clear solo.
To clear [Little Annie the Match-Seller] dungeon, the player needs to break through the third and fourth dreams simultaneously, and kill two bosses.
In [Little Annie and the Big Bad Wolf] dungeon, the Big Bad Wolf’s signature skill [Hungry Wolf Gaze] is a lock-on skill, requiring five players to stand together to share the damage to pass.
[Hungry Wolf Gaze] is actual damage. Even with the addition of [Frost Shield], Su Yu could not withstand it, so he had no choice but to select [Amumu’s Tragedy] dungeon.
Truthfully speaking, the end boss of [Amumu’s Tragedy], “Swift Scout Teemo,” has a special mechanism that requires the collaboration of five players to pass, and it was quite challenging for Su Yu to clear it solo.
However, among the three dungeons, only this one had the possibility of being cleared. Su Yu had no choice but to brace himself and teleport in..
