Michael was stunned! Since when were there female Water Elents?
But then he thought about how Gem City was designed by Raphael, who's confused about everything, and maybe his ideas actually influenced so NPCs? If that's the case, Raphael is beyond description strong!
Michael wanted to get clear on it: "Your Highness, what does the Water Elent look like?"
The Prince raised his hand, and a light ball appeared, showing the massive figure of the Water Elent two stories high, totally unrelated to any female figure! However, this Water Elent had two pairs of arms, and one pair was constantly holding sothing!
How peculiar! But it didn't matter, as long as his attention was diverted away from the City Beauty.
Michael asked, "Your Highness, is there anything I can do for you?"
The Prince sighed, "This is exactly why I'm here to find you. Of course, not to put a bounty on her! I heard you organized a Void Expedition team, and I want to commission you to find the Heart of Fallen Ice in the Void. Money is not an issue."
Michael began to calculate, "I can contact the expedition team to relay the commission, but I'm only part of a small three-person expedition team with a second-hand ship. Why did Your Highness co to ?"
The Prince said calmly, "I could of course go to other expedition teams, but I don't want my business spreading everywhere. Your team is small, so keeping secrets shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Are you sure you can even rally other expedition teams?
Michael replied, "No problem! But I can't guarantee the ti it will take."
The Prince downed his drink in one go, stood up, and left: "Try to make it before Hydrahis gets caught..."
——System ssage: You have received the mission commission 'Find the Heart of Fallen Ice in the Void' and received a 100,000 Mining Coin advance.
Michael saw the Prince off: "I will do my best, looking forward to Your Highness' next visit."
Honestly, Michael, with all his upgradable Divine Artifacts, had no interest in this mission or this slightly peculiar Water Elent. He had no ti to waste in the Arctic either. He'd just coast through it.
However, if he could take this opportunity to check which powerful characters in the ga could accept bounties, Michael was slightly interested.
Then the Head Maid returned: "Sage, the Prince has left, shall we reopen for business?"
Michael waved his hand: "Wait, can I inquire about so things regarding the Prince?"
The Head Maid smiled: "I'm sorry, those are confidential."
Michael smiled: "My apologies, I ant no harm, just concerned about the Prince, hoping to provide him better service."
The Head Maid understood and then whispered, "Actually, the Fourth Prince has been quite troubled. He's not as strong as the other four Princes and always looks for ways to improve, that's why he joined the Arctic Special Squad..."
Michael's brow twitched, this Head Maid should not be trusted!
Perhaps, when Libnahi is on duty, he could try asking her the sa question to see if she'd leak info. If she also leaks, that would be the ultimate disappointnt.
...
The Dragon Sleep Divine Hall, an obscure hidden map, not sure if underground or heavenly. Only majestic, worn-out ancient palaces and hundreds of quirky, research-focused old Mage guys. Still, all sorts of common and uncommon trade skills were present here.
The Divine Fall Wind team had already shuttled back and forth twice, transporting ten big bundles of Gemstones to sell, already earning a million Mining Coins, 200,000 per person. Such wealth could instantly propel them from current rank 1500 to the top hundred.
Of course, everyone knew NPC purchase prices were a rip-off, so they didn't plan to sell the next shipnts. Renting a warehouse to hoard everything was the plan. Plus, storing them here was too random; getting in and out was inconvenient if too many mission failures occurred, and next ti they might not get in, losing their warehouse. So they decided to store in Gem City.
Just as they were planning their next outing, the task old man appeared with a strange look: "Look what you did!"
Then slapped a red paper onto Divine Fall Wind's face.
Divine Fall Wind pulled it off to see it was an SSS bounty!
Everyone was stunned; regular players could only see up to S-rank bounties, not this 3S level, which only NPCs could see.
Divine Fall Wind exclaid, "It's not our fault. Hydrahis said if you want to find it, go yourself!"
The old man was angry: "Of course, we have to go! But do you think the task was given because you are outstanding? Wrong, it's because you're weak, less likely to catch its attention! Now we're taking back your task props. Co back after you correct your errors!"
With that, a wave of his hand, and the five's Door Shields were confiscated, then with a flash of light, they were teleported outside Gem City.
Everyone was shocked: "What's happening?"
"Holy Shit! Without Ancient Shields, we're definitely going to die midway, how do we dig for Gemstones now?"
"Feels like being kicked out of the sect. Forget about digging for Gems, not sure if we can even return here."
"Never mind, it was initially luck during the beta test to find this place. We might as well honestly level up to 70 then co dig for Gems, it's so hidden, no one is likely to find it."
Divine Fall Wind ca to a realization: "I've got the old man's bounty in hand!"
Everyone suddenly realized: "We definitely don't have the capability to reach the Arctic, right?"
Divine Fall Wind got excited: "So we can only resort to NPCs, let NPCs take us there, and once we see the Water Elent, we'll call it Big Bro! Surely that would trigger so event!"
"Exactly! This paper is invisible to regular players, it's practically our ticket! Let's go back to the city, find an NPC team, even if it's just to tag along..."
...
Chun took a nap till noon.
Suddenly, he found Mina still working up a sweat in the FBl, Chun was astounded! Hours have passed! My alt account lasted hours due to Earth Fla Body, what's my main's excuse?
The delivery guy's about to bring food, better log off.
The delivery guy soon knocked: "Brother Chun, lunch is here!"
Chun opened the door: "Coming!"
"Brother Chun, here's your strong-flavored, improved West Lake Vinegar Fish! And mustard shrimp!"
She dared to tamper with West Lake Vinegar Fish!
Chun's heart trembled: "President Zhou's in high spirits?"
The delivery guy chuckled: "Of course, her Xuewei Girl Corps and Jiang Moyu's healing troupe also joined in, tagging along with the Fishman God collecting drops from various pythons and crocodiles, she's having a blast..."
Chun rembered sothing: "Isn't Sariel from the Ten Lords there too, did he find Jackal Wolf Village?"
"Definitely not, from above it just looks like a bunch of waste pits..."
"Alright, let's taste President Zhou's cooking!"
"Take your ti Brother Chun, watch out for bones..."
Ugh...
