29: Guild Quests
Bright sunlight scattered upon the earth, and Su Feng strolled along the wide street.
Ever since his Profession Advancement, his entire being felt somewhat different.
"Tonight, I still have to attend that gathering organized by the Black Gold Member. I wonder what kind of people I'll run into..."
"However, Ma Run said I just need to go straight to him when the time comes, and he will arrange the subsequent itinerary, so that's fine."
"The biggest problem now is that there are no more Magical Beasts outside Tianhai City for me to farm. It's getting a bit difficult to improve my strength!"
After Su Feng's current level increase, the required Experience Points are exceptionally massive.
Relying solely on the Demon Cloud Mountain Range and its surroundings makes achieving Third Profession Advancement completely impossible.
I wonder if Wang Yue has any good recommendations... "That's right, I can call Wang Yue out and ask her..."
When Wang Yue learned Su Feng needed her, she naturally rushed over, arriving at the agreed location in less than ten minutes.
"Senior, you needed to see me?"
"Yes, I wanted to ask where nearby is suitable for improving strength for Third Profession Advancement. The Magical Beasts in the Demon Cloud Mountain Range were cleared out yesterday, and the remaining ones are all low-level..."
Wang Yue's heart stirred. Why not take Senior to do some Guild Tasks?
Coincidentally, she had a few rather complicated tasks here, and the Contribution Points gained were substantial.
The main reason was that the difficulty of these tasks was extremely high; most members of their Third-Tier Guild would find them nearly impossible to complete!
Only those who have reached at least the strength of Third Profession Advancement can challenge them.
But this involves members who are Department Heads or higher, and most of them have their own matters to attend to, so these tasks have remained vacant.
"Senior... how about this? I have a few Third Profession Advancement tasks here, and if completed, they offer quite a few rewards."
"Many of them involve finding materials. What do you think, Senior?"
Su Feng raised an eyebrow after hearing this. Wang Yue really did have a solution.
"Alright, let me see!"
Wang Yue used Magic to display the tasks before Su Feng, with the exceptionally difficult Third Profession Advancement tasks at the very top.
"Sea of Sand, search for the Thorn Bone Spur and the Desert Vessel, reward 5,000 Contribution Points..."
"Shallow Water Bay, search for the Wide Bamboo Fish Fin and the Glue Birch Coral, reward 4,500 Contribution Points..."
"Magma Cave, search for the Lava Core and the Gilded Spark, reward 4,000 Contribution Points..."
...After Su Feng skimmed through the list, he realized all the required items were rare materials!
This Guild really knows how to pick them.
These materials could sell for hundreds of thousands or even millions outside.
The better ones would easily fetch three to four million... "So, how do we get to these places?"
Su Feng had previously looked at some detailed maps of Dragon Country, which marked many Secret Realms and Dungeons, but their locations were extremely remote.
Traveling back and forth would be quite troublesome.
Could it be that Senior hasn't joined a Guild yet?!
Wang Yue felt a little horrified, but she dared not show anything.
"Senior, by clicking on the task, you can be teleported to the vicinity of the corresponding map."
"The Guilds build Magic Formations nearby to facilitate completion for Guild members, but they are limited to use by current Guild members, or helpers teamed up with the Guild..."
Su Feng nodded slightly. He hadn't really learned about Guilds before.
However, judging by this, these Guilds have quite a large reach!
"What if we fail?"
Wang Yue gave an awkward smile: "If the accepted task fails, the Guild will directly deduct the Contribution Degree lost by the member this time."
"That way, the Guild doesn't lose out no matter what."
Su Feng pondered internally.
It seemed he would have to go with Wang Yue.
"How about this: I'll team up with you. The Contribution Points earned will be yours, and the materials will be yours, but everything else will belong to me. What do you say?"
Wang Yue was overwhelmed by the favor.
"Senior, this..."
"No need to say more. You've already done quite a bit for me, and those materials are what you need anyway. If we fail, forcing you to compensate in return wouldn't be appropriate."
Wang Yue immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Senior!"
"Let's go!"
...Magma Cave.
Scorching magma rushed constantly, and the air was filled with heat, seemingly capable of melting any incoming creature at any moment.
"Senior, this..."
Wang Yue was instantly drenched in sweat. The temperature here was simply too high, and her level was too low to resist the erosion.
"Stand here and wait for a moment!"
Su Feng took a step forward, and Storm Elements continuously gathered in his hand. He didn't want to enter the cave either.
It would be easier to handle things from the outside.
"Wrath of the Storm!"
As Su Feng's voice fell, several sharp Wind Blades instantly formed in the air, whistling as they lunged towards the Magma Cave.
A tumultuous wave immediately rose in Wang Yue's heart.
Senior's strength truly was terrifying!
She didn't know why Senior would come to a place like this, but Wang Yue knew that wasn't her concern; she just needed to handle her own duties.
At this moment, other Adventurer Teams outside the Magma Cave naturally noticed the anomaly here.
"What's going on? Since when does the Magma Cave experience a storm of this magnitude?"
"Wait... this looks a bit like High-Tier Magic!"
"This couldn't be some Big Shot personally coming here to gather materials, right? Let's avoid this area for now..."
...Whoosh!
The sharp Wind Blades continuously whistled outside the Magma Cave, and many flew deep inside as well.
[Ding! Killed the Magical Beast Lava Giant, gained 130,000 Experience Points!]
[Ding! Killed the Magical Beast Lava Behemoth, gained 150,000 Experience Points!]
[Ding! Killed the Magical Beast Lava Fire Bird, gained 200,000 Experience Points!]
...Wang Yue watched her level rapidly increase. She never imagined that leveling up could be this easy in her entire life!
This was practically riding a rocket!
She was originally at the early stage of Second Profession Advancement, but now she had already reached Level 86.
Moreover, there seemed to be no sign of stopping.
"This... is this what a Big Shot is like?"
"To be able to annihilate life forms with a mere gesture is simply unbelievable!"
The admiration in Wang Yue's heart surpassed what it was before, and it further solidified Su Feng's standing in her mind.
When she got back, she would open another bottle of century-old thousand vine flower nectar.
This is simply outrageous!
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, your level has increased!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, your level has increased!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, your level has increased!]
[...Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have obtained 18 Lava Cores!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have obtained 32 Gilded Sparks!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have obtained 21 Fire Blaze Burst Stones!]
..."Only Level 132?"
"It seems leveling up is getting harder and harder. The main issue is that this place is inherently low-level. It looks like we'll have to go to the next one!"
...Su Feng and Wang Yue instantly vanished.
A long time later.
Adventurers returned, but upon entering the Magma Cave, they found that it was completely empty!
Damn it!
Even bandits don't loot this cleanly!
They could only wait for the resources to refresh within the fixed time frame...
