Chapter 22: 22, Hidden Task [Tina’s Struggle] _1
Translator: 549690339
Tina was a stunning sixteen-year-old girl with an exceptionally delicate face.
Even compared to offline celebrities who had undergone plastic surgery, she was visually stunning.
At this moment, Tina stood at the entrance of Baron Wilson’s estate, holding a receipt, looking downcast.
Not far from the street where Tina was, a group of players were engrossed in discussing something in hushed tones.
Su Yu approached Tina and introduced himself, “Hello, Miss Tina, I am
Nemesis, an adventurer.”
“Hello, Nemesis. What brings you to me?” Tina turned to look at Su Yu, her beautiful eyes twinkling.
Tina’s actions immediately created a stir among the spectators.
When these players passed by and noticed Tina holding a note with a gloomy expression but so gorgeous, they speculated that she must have a mission.
But no matter how these players tried to strike up a conversation or coax her, Tina ignored them utterly.
So, those players reluctantly stood by, discussing how to “beat” this beautiful girl.
But to their surprise, Su Yu merely introduced himself and got a reply from Tina!
The onlooking players were green with envy, some were so angry that they began to curse:
“Bah! Pretty boy!”
“Just because he’s handsome, he’s impressive? Hope your son @%L# * ” “Don’t you know how to queue while playing a game, you stinky *
Su Yu couldn’t be bothered to deal with these players. He dealt an [Electric Chain], and the four who had cursed most angrily disappeared into white light on the spot.
The surviving players looked on in horror.
What just happened? How did people disappear all of a sudden?
Su Yu returned his gaze to Tina: “The thing is, your father, old John is very worried about you. He asked me to help you in the hope you’ll return home soon. ”
“Thank you for the message, Nemesis,” Tina managed to force a smile, “However, I can’t leave. Baron Wilson owes a significant debt to our grocery store. If I can’t get the money, I couldn’t pay my staff.”
“Oh, in other words, as long as you get the debt, we can leave?” Su Yu asked casually.
“Of course.” Tina stared.
“Alright then, I’ll help you get your money right now.”
Finishing his sentence, Su Yu strode towards the front door of the mansion.
But, just at this moment, the mansion doors swung open.
A man wearing a black butler suit walked out from inside.
[Butler Charlemagne Iv6]
Health: 80
Five other servants who were levels 3-5 followed Charlemagne.
Charlemagne did not give Su Yu a glance, but looked at Tina with eagerness on his face:
“Miss Tina, my master sent me to ask you a question. Would you be willing to become his lover? If you agree, we will repay all your debts!”
“Lover?” Tina was shocked. Can there be such a shameful condition in the world?
“No, I do not agree!” Tina was so angry her face turned crimson, “You must repay my money; otherwise…”
“Or what?” Butler Charlemagne looked at Tina with amusement: “And whether or not you become a lover, is not up to you to decide.”
Butler Charlemagne turned to look at the five servants behind him: “Take her!” “Alright.” The five servants obeyed, moving towards Tina with evil smiles on their faces.
Perhaps after the master had had his fun, he might share some of ‘soup’ with them, by that time, hehehe…
Meanwhile, Su Yu’s mission was updated.
“Ding! Your mission [Tina’s Struggle] has been updated.”
“[Tina’s Struggle 6/20].”
“Mission Requirements: Protect Tina from being caught by Charlemagne’s underlings, and safely escort her to the Warrior Guild to be turned over to the warrior supervisor, Quinn.”
“Mission reward: [Fireball Skill] scroll Xl, 400XP.”
Upon seeing this mission description, Su Yu had a rough idea about the upcoming storyline.
The storyline should be: Tina escapes to the Warrior Guild, and with the help of Quinn, the warrior supervisor, they, along with the players, jointly confront and defeat the evil Baron Wilson.
But Su Yu had no intention of following the mission path.
The reason was simple: strong power rules!
Seeing the five fierce henchmen rushing towards her, Tina was startled and hastily tried to flee.
However, at that moment, an arc of electricity the thickness of a goose egg broke out from Su Yu’s wand, bouncing amongst the four henchmen.
-141
-116
-125
-131
The health bars of the four henchmen out of five were wiped out, leaving them critically injured and on the verge of death.
The remaining henchman, seeing his comrades fall one after another, stood frozen in terror, in a state of utter confusion.
Su Yu showed no mercy and casually cast a [Lightning Bolt]. This henchman too, fell twitching to the ground.
The butler, shocked by this scene, turned and fled towards the manor.
However, in his haste, he nearly tripped and fell.
Su Yu didn’t make a move to attack him. Instead, he coldly said, “Stop! I’ll count to three. 3…2…”
The moment Su Yu started his countdown, the butler halted and turned back. A forced smile appeared on his rigid face. “Esteemed guest, might you be…” “You don’t need to know who I am,” Su Yu interrupted impatiently. “Lead the way! Take me to your baron. I need to have a chat with him face to face!”
“Alright, right this way,” the butler said hurriedly and gestured for him to follow, leading the way.
Su Yu looked back at Tina.
She was still staring blankly, seemingly not yet recovered from witnessing his display of raw power.
So, Su Yu walked over and took her soft, delicate hand. “Come on, let’s go in there and settle our accounts. Also, we’ll address the matter of the baron forcing you to be his lover.”
“Uh… Okay.”
Tina’s cheeks turned pink as Su Yu held her hand.
However, she didn’t resist and let Su Yu take her into the Baron’s manor.
By this point, the players outside the manor who had been watching the spectacle were in utter chaos:
“Were those four players killed instantly?”
“They must’ve been.”
“And they were wiped out by an AOE (Area of Effect) skill!”
“Not only those players, those NPCs were wiped out too!”
“Look at the health of those NPCs. They are not weak compared to wild monsters at the same level. How can they not withstand?” “An AOE skill that can instantly kill? Is there no justice?!”
“Did anyone record that?” “I did. I was actually filming that beautiful NPC.”
“Quick! Post it on the forum.”
“Oh, okay.”
Shortly after. another Dost on the forum went viral.
The title of the post was “AOE Skill Emerges! Mysterious player rescues the beauty, killing multiple players and NPCs instantly using an AOE skill.”
Below the post were countless shocked comments. Everyone was astounded by Su Yu’s terrifying [Lightning Chain].
The comments came flooding in, hundreds within minutes.
Some players even recognized Su Yu by his looks: “Eh? Isn’t this the expert from the 1V100 post earlier?”
“I checked that post again. It’s indeed him!”
“How is it his buffs are still active?”
“Not only are the buffs active, but he also has an AOE skill?” “That NPC beauty is gorgeous! Seeing her holding hands, I’m so jealous!”
The forum users enthusiastically joined the heated discussion..
