Players who enter the [Frenzy Ceremony] can also produce [Frenzy Fragments]. However, because players do not have the same desperate struggle emotions as the native citizens before they die, the probability of generating fragments would be smaller, probably only one in three hundred.
“If Nemesis really could attract a million adventurers from other worlds, just with these adventurers alone, more than three thousand fragments could be collected, which would be absolutely advantageous for my breakthrough!” Xi Fan pondered.
Of course, the more fragments, the better. Although three thousand would be enough, if there were surplus, they could be used against other enemies.
However, Xi Fan did not immediately agree to Su Yu, instead asking, “Do your adventurers from other worlds really have that many people? Also, is your influence that strong?”
Su Yu smiled: “Of course, you can rest assured.”
“Then what do you want?” Xi Fan knew that Su Yu would never help him for no reason. Su Yu must have something in mind.
“I want the [Blue Dragon Scadi’s Heart].” Su Yu stated bluntly.
The [Blue Dragon Scadi’s Heart] was one of Xi Fan’s collections and one of the items that Su Yu valued most.
“Skadi?” Sharon and several other leaders of large forces trembled.
Skadi was a sixth-order mature Blue Dragon who had disappeared without a trace after revolting from Dragon Island five years ago. They did not expect that it was already dead, and its heart was in Xi Fan’s hands.
Xi Fan thought for a while, then slowly said, “You want Skadi’s heart? Its heart is quite valuable, far exceeding the value of the conditions you proposed.”
“But at present, there is nothing more important than your promotion, right? Besides, as a Shadow Priest, the heart of a blue dragon isn’t of much use to you, is it?”
“Reasonable Deal!” Xi Fan made a decision.
However, he stared at Su Yu coldly, “Kid, although I agree to the transaction, you’d better not play tricks inside. If I find you messing around, I will imprison your soul and torture you forever!”
“Don’t worry, I am very credible.” Su Yu smiled.
“Ding! You have gained the trust of [Shadow Priest Xi Fan] and obtained Xi Fan’s [Task Proxy Publish Authority].”
Su Yu opened the [Task Commission Publish] module and found the task that could help Xi Fan publish.
The task details were as follows:
Task: [Shadow Frenzy Ceremony]
Task Requirements: Participate in Shadow Priest Xi Fan’s [Frenzy Ceremony] and suffer great torment.
Number of Participants: 0 – +∞
Task Reward: 20,000 Experience Points. [Switch] [Split] (+) (-)
Note: Participating in this task has a 50% chance of death. The death penalty is the same as the outdoor death penalty. After death, you cannot participate in the ceremony again.
The total reward for the task is 20,000 experience points, which can be swapped for other rewards through [Switch] and [Split].
Su Yu clicked the [Switch] button and the task reward kept changing. In addition to experience points, there were “Random rare quality equipment X1 suitable for this profession”, “Random common quality pet egg x1”, “Spiritual Energy Coins X600”, and “Random quality first-order skill book X1 suitable for this profession”.
If you click the [Split] button, pet eggs, equipment, and skill books cannot be split. Only experience points and spiritual energy coins can be split into smaller parts, such as “10,000 experience, 300 spiritual energy coins.”
After careful consideration, Su Yu decided to set the task reward to a “random quality first-order skill book”.
Su Yu’s own first-order skills have been supplemented during the process of doing the main task. But for most players, they lack first-order skills.
Each first-order skill book can sell for 1,000 spiritual energy coins in the auction house. Some excellent quality skills, like the Druid’s [Bear Transformation], Archer’s [Animal Companion], Mage’s [Frost Nova] and so on, are at least 10,000 spiritual energy coins goods, and they are often out of stock.
The reward for this task is a “random quality” first-order skill book.
If a player is lucky enough to get a good roll, it would be a huge reward!
And equipment depreciates; it needs to be replaced after a while, but skills can be used for a lifetime. So, it was decided.
After leaving the palace, Su Yu published the information about the task to the guild channel, the president’s chat room, and the official forum.
Su Yu added two points to the task information at the end:
“First, although the reward for this task is very generous, the entire process of the task is very painful. It’s the kind of feeling that you are tortured to madness. If you really want to participate, you must be mentally prepared.”
“The second point is that a lot of tasks related to the main story will appear between Forest City and Goldfinch City in the coming days, and many of them have very generous rewards. Everyone, be careful not to miss it.”
Su Yu’s post was quickly pinned to the top of the forum and quickly received a lot of replies:
“Boss Ke, I am willing to participate!”
“To fight against the Skuru people, a little suffering is nothing.”
“Forest City, right? I’m heading there now!”
“For the sake of the skills, give it all!”
There was also a player who made a suggestion:
“Boss Ke, you know so much information that ordinary players in the game do not know. You might as well write a guide. At this point, no need to hide anything anymore.”
Su Yu immediately replied to this player: “Okay, I’ll write a guide soon.”
After leaving the palace, Su Yu, riding Dima, arrived at the central square of Forest City.
There were already players on the square who had arrived before Su Yu. Seeing Su Yu, the players quickly surrounded him.
Su Yu didn’t bother with small talk and directly showed an “exclamation mark” over his head.
Players flocked to Su Yu to accept the task, but all of their expressions were quite heavy.
The number of players surrounding Su Yu continued to increase, and gradually, his view was filled with players.
But everyone was very quiet, making the atmosphere eerily silent.
Taking advantage of the time when the players were accepting the task, Su Yu opened the official forum and started to write a guide.
In the beginning of the guide, Su Yu told everyone that his talent had a certain “predict the future” ability, enabling him to know many unknown game contents.
Then, Su Yu collected all the information he knew, including the general information for each profession, core skills, late-game gameplay, development path, tips for getting hidden tasks, uses of World Prestige and upgrading territories, functions of sunflowers, etc., and published it on the official forum as a large guide.
Su Yu’s guide caused a huge sensation both online and offline.
Upon hearing the news of Su Yu’s guide, people, whether they were in or out of the game, or even those who hadn’t touched “Evolution”, opened the official forum to view the post, causing the official forum to crash for a while.
Most of the comments in the guide were thanking Su Yu for writing it, as it had pointed the way for many people.
Of course, there were many voices saying “I don’t understand” in the comments section.
Especially for players who hadn’t touched “Evolution”, there were many words in the guide they didn’t understand.
Some people had never even played a game and didn’t understand words like “tank”, “aoe”, “npc”, etc.
To accommodate these people, many players spontaneously replied in the comments section, patiently explaining the meaning of each game term in Su Yu’s post.
While there was still some time, Su Yu wrote another guide for “zero basis, newbie orientation” after writing the strategy guide. He told people who had never played a game before what to do after entering the game and how to upgrade, among other basic knowledge.
