Chapter 71: Chapter71-Space Sever Mountain Range, LoranBlade’s Identity
LoranBlade quickly replied again.
"The quest content is very simple. I need to kill 1,000 wild monsters that are at least ten levels higher than me, as well as one B-Rank boss.
"And they must be wild monsters proficient in space-type abilities. I need to use the corpse materials of those monsters and the boss core to activate the seal on the longsword in my hand."
After reading this message, John’s expression shifted slightly.
He had not expected that the other party’s Hidden Quest this time would also be related to space.
Wasn’t this exactly his specialty?
After all, among the current player base, when it came to mastering space entirely through the power of Law, there was probably no one who could compare to him.
It had to be said that LoranBlade had indeed found the right person.
"Looks like you do have a good eye."
On the other side, LoranBlade was still feeling uneasy, worried about whether John would agree.
After seeing this message, her eyes immediately lit up.
"Outlander, does that mean you agree?"
John smiled faintly.
"Mm. This quest is very easy for me.
"How long is the time limit?"
LoranBlade replied, "It only needs to be completed within seven days. With your help, it should be finished very quickly.
"Thank you, truly. If you didn’t agree, I really wouldn’t know what to do."
John replied, "It’s just a small matter. No need to be polite."
Just as he was about to close the chat interface, LoranBlade sent another message.
"By the way, I’ve seen that the major guilds have already started preparing to establish their own forces.
"Outlander, you’re this strong. Have you never considered creating a force of your own?
"If you ever decide to create one, please make sure to let me know. I’m quite interested in your force."
Seeing LoranBlade’s message, John could not help freezing for a moment.
Establish a guild?
To be honest, he had never thought about that.
Nor was he interested in creating a guild.
In his previous life, it was precisely because he had trusted a guild too much that he had suffered betrayal.
And in this life, by developing alone, he had directly soared into the sky.
From the current situation, he could not find any benefit in creating a guild.
After thinking for a moment, John replied, "I’m not considering it for now. If I do create one, I’ll tell you."
LoranBlade felt somewhat disappointed.
However, her main goal this time had been to get John’s help with her Hidden Quest.
Since that goal had been achieved, she did not say anything more.
After agreeing to help LoranBlade, John closed the chat channel.
At the same time, the 10,000 gold coins also smoothly entered his account.
[You have received a gift of 20,000 gold coins from your friend "LoranBlade"!]
Seeing this amount, John froze slightly.
It seemed that he had still underestimated LoranBlade’s financial strength.
She had casually gifted him 20,000 gold coins.
"I wonder what this woman’s real-world background actually is."
John muttered.
Then, he chose to log off.
Nearly twenty-four hours had already passed since he had last entered the game.
If he did not log off soon, his real body would start sounding alarms again.
With a flash of white light, John’s figure disappeared from where he stood.
...
John slowly opened his eyes, and a wave of exhaustion and hunger surged from within his body.
Outside the window, the sky had long since darkened. Night had swallowed the city.
He pressed the call bell beside his bed, and a nutritious dinner containing protein and dietary fiber was soon delivered.
After eating and drinking his fill, John washed up, then lay back down in bed and fell into a deep sleep.
When his eyes closed and opened again, it was already the next morning.
After breakfast and washing up, John quickly logged back online.
...
The moment he came online, John saw the messages LoranBlade had sent him.
"Outlander, are you up?"
"When are we meeting?"
"When can we start the quest? I can’t wait anymore."
"I’ll wait for you in Thunder City. I can’t get to your side."
John did not know whether to laugh or cry.
He had not expected that LoranBlade, who was known for being cold and aloof, would become this anxious when the matter involved her own strength.
He immediately replied, "Send your location. I’ll be there right away."
LoranBlade replied almost instantly and sent him a location.
...
Thunder City, southern gate.
On the main road, a beautiful figure with a longsword hanging at her waist was pacing back and forth, extremely anxious.
Ever since Outlander had agreed yesterday, she had only logged off briefly to handle matters related to her group and family.
After that, she had barely rested before logging back online.
However, Outlander seemed to be someone who paid great attention to his physical health.
He had only just replied to her message.
After LoranBlade sent her location, she kept glancing toward the city gate from time to time, waiting for Outlander’s figure to appear.
However, she looked in vain many times.
Even so, she did not dare feel the slightest resentment.
After all, without Outlander’s help, she was nothing.
Finally, after she looked back again, Outlander’s figure appeared at the gate at last.
"Over here!"
LoranBlade waved excitedly.
If anyone who knew her in reality saw her acting like this, their jaws would probably drop.
John’s figure flashed, and he appeared directly before LoranBlade.
"Since your quest requires you to kill 1,000 monsters at least ten levels above you, as well as one boss, and your current level is Lv.21, then the corresponding wild monsters need to be at least Lv.31.
"The only place nearby that meets this condition is the Space Sever Mountain Range."
LoranBlade had clearly done her research long ago. She nodded repeatedly.
"That’s right. It’s there!"
Her beautiful eyes lit up as she showed him the map in her hand.
"According to the map, the Space Sever Mountain Range is some distance from here. There’s no time to waste. Let’s set off immediately."
John took the map and glanced at it casually.
He handed it back to LoranBlade.
Then he took a step forward and, under her stunned gaze, directly wrapped an arm around her waist.
"Outlander..."
Her face flushed slightly, and she was just about to say something.
The next moment—
Whoosh!
LoranBlade only felt her vision blur.
In the next instant, she had already appeared several kilometers away.
"Don’t move around. Hold on tight."
John spoke calmly, while Spatial Authority continuously circulated around him.
The two of them rushed toward the Space Sever Mountain Range at extreme speed.
Now that he had mastered Anti-Law: Traceless, using this level of Authority was not something he had to worry about being discovered for.
Before long, they arrived near the Space Sever Mountain Range.
Looking at the mountains before her, each with half of its body suspended in the air and the other half buried deep underground, even though LoranBlade had already prepared herself mentally, she still could not help marveling at the strangeness of this mountain range.
According to legend, this place had once been personally blessed with divine power by the Goddess of Space, which was how such a landscape had formed.
Most of the wild monsters inside also possessed space-type attributes.
"Let’s go."
After observing for a moment, John directly stepped into the mountain range first.
Because of the special nature of this place, he did not use Spatial Authority again.
The two entered on foot and soon climbed into the first mountain forest.
The moment they entered, a hissing cry suddenly came from the upper left.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss!"
Almost instantly, a massive python nearly ten meters long suddenly shot down from the tree canopy beside them.
Its scales flickered with silver light as it abruptly appeared beside LoranBlade’s neck!
