Everyone nearly beca slack-jawed after seeing that beautiful and alluring portrait. It wasn't an understatent to perceive her as an actual succubus. After all, no ordinary person would be this sexually charming.
However, why should they be concerned about this? When compared to killing the so-called succubus, it was more appealing for them to explore the maze. They all responded positively, but couldn't care less in their hearts.
All they cared about was entering the maze uneventfully. Whether they would go and hunt the succubus depended on their mood and luck. They would try if they stumbled into her. If they didn't, they'd naturally not waste any ti searching for her.
Wasn't it better to explore the maze?
This is how humans work, benefits make the world go round. Only a rare few people would be foolish enough to do non-beneficial things. Even the perfect altruist had self-interest in mind when performing good deeds. For example, to attain fa or self-satisfaction.
All of the players and adventurers here ca to seek benefits. Making them do any work without pay would be a waste of effort. Seemingly having figured out their thoughts, Commander Blei waved his arm and shouted.
"Anyone who exits the maze with the succubus' head will be granted three Master-level Equipnt and ten million gold coins by His Majesty!"
Everyone was shocked when he said that.
"What? I didn't hear it wrong, did I?" S.K.Y. exclaid.
"Why are you so stoked?" Wild Arrogance was confused.
"You don't know?" S.K.Y. was a little surprised. "The Empire's Master-level Equipnt equates to Epic Equipnt!"
Hearing that, Wild Arrogance's eyes beca wide and exhaled deeply. The reward of 10 million gold coins wasn't really important to him. However, three Epic Equipnt was different.
These days, Epic Equipnt in Linhnan server were a rarity. Most of them were possessed by the [Princess Alliance]. Even the imnsely wealthy [Death of Love] Guild only had one, owned by himself. In [Limitless] Guild and [Death of Flower] Guild, S.K.Y. and Vanessa Yang each possessed one. Most of the other top guilds probably only had one, owned by their leader.
Players like Yaeger who was decked out in Epic Equipnt were imnsely desirable, everyone wanted a bite off of her. These days, Yunuen Lin who possessed two Epic Equipnt were also targeted.
"Three Epic Equipnt!" Wild Arrogance cald down in great difficulty and exclaid.
Until this day, Epic Equipnt were still incredibly rare and desirable in the forums' black markets. Even [Royal Quiver], the weakest Epic Equipnt on Yaeger was valued at an astronomical amount within the black market.
However, not a single one of these items were ever sold. At least not to Wild Arrogance's and S.K.Y.'s knowledge.
In fact, aside from [Princess Alliance], only powerful individuals from massive guilds could attain Epic Equipnt. Would anyone at this caliber lack money? No, even if they needed money, they would never sell their Epic Equipnt. Because these were akin to geese that laid the golden eggs!
As long as they had Epic Equipnt, would they fail to earn money? Even if they only used it to help other players grind levels, they would still earn boatloads of cash. Not to ntion exploring new frontiers.
Any Guild that could attain three Epic Equipnt at this mont would undergo drastic change!
‘Being the greatest Guild in Cathay would be possible! No, I can even beco the greatest person in the world!' Wild Arrogance was very excited.
With three Epic Equipnt in hand, his plans to destroy Black-hearted Princess would be even easier! As long as he could attain her Artifact, Unique Crates, and Epic Equipnt, he would definitely beco the greatest player in the world.
At this mont, the atmosphere in the square was extrely lively. As if gathering in front of a bonfire, everyone's faces were flushed. Witnessing the change, Blei simply smirked. ‘I just wrote you a blank check. You think you can actually cash it in? Naïve, no, how greedy!'
Greed was the demon that could deprive anyone of logical reasoning.
‘Idiots. Do you think there's such a great opportunity waiting for you?' He shook his head.
Risk and opportunity ca hand-in-hand. With such a high payoff, there was definitely a massive risk. With that said, Blei couldn't care less if they lived or died. As they say: The wages of avarice is death.
In this mission, these adventurers and outsiders were nothing but cannon fodder. The true challengers were actually the greenhorn soldiers of the Direct Army. They were all experts that were Platinum-ranked in strength!
"Besides!" Blei suddenly said. His voice seed to have resounded within their hearts, making everyone silent. "As long as you locate the succubus and report it to any mbers of the Direct Army accompanying you, you'll also be rewarded! Depending on the importance of the information, you receive a Fine Equipnt at most!"
The mont he spoke, the scene beca rowdy again.
"Doesn't the Empire's Fine Equipnt equate to Rare Equipnt?" S.K.Y. was surprised.
"What a hefty reward." Wild Arrogance said.
Imdiately after, they looked at each other and realized that sothing was amiss. The matter about the succubus was definitely more complicated than it seed! Yet, most players and adventurers didn't think that much. They only cared about benefits!
With their strength, they weren't delusional enough to hunt down the succubus, who had a massive bounty on her head. However, simply providing information was quite different. Anyone could do that, no?
Unlike these people, Wild Arrogance and S.K.Y. both remained skeptical. They had no plans to beco cannon fodder.
"We'll focus on conquering the maze. As for hunting the succubus, let's just wait and see." S.K.Y. whispered.
"That's what I'm thinking too." Wild Arrogance nodded.
Although Epic Equipnt was good, their lives were more important. Players like them who were above Level 20 treasured their lives deeply. Because the consequences of death would beco greater as their level increased!
Commander Blei glanced around and nodded in satisfaction. The more enthusiastic these cannon fodder were, the better. After all, they simply couldn't send too many elites inside.
If these adventurers and outsiders were lucky enough to kill Alicia, it would be even better!
"Let's go!" With a wave of his hand, everyone excitedly entered the rockery and descended into the underground maze along with those black-armored soldiers.
At this mont, among this massive crowd of people, no one noticed that a tall man draped in black had suddenly smirked ominously. Furthermore, no one noticed that underneath his incredibly common and pale yellow face, there were white bandages wrapped around his neck, hiding even whiter skin. No, even the man himself didn't notice that the bandages on his neck had slightly loosened after the chaos that unfolded back then. That was why his skin that looked completely different to his face was revealed.
So ti ago.
White light flashed and spatial energy shook. The next mont, three figures appeared. They were Yaeger, Alicia and Yunuen.
"Is this the first maze we are assigned to?" Yaeger looked forward with a slightly surprised expression.
They had appeared on a platform made of gray bricks. There was a massive stone door not far away. So incomprehensible but ancient looking inscriptions were carved at its top.
"It's actually this maze!" Looking at those words, Alicia exclaid in surprise.
