MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter-Chapter 436 - : Trial
Chapter 436: Chapter 436: Trial
“So, do we also need to find a mentor to complete the task?” asked Daimeng Tongtong.
Li Yao nodded solemnly, “The advancement this time is also a qualitative change, and our strength will be greatly improved. So, Sister Li and Tongtong, you should quickly complete the professional advancement task. Each profession’s advancement task is different, and I can’t teach you. Of course, I trust your strength. Strive for perfection, and the greater the upgrade you’ll receive.”
“Hmm, I understand,” Sister Li pondered for a moment and then said, “If the upgrade is really significant, after Tongtong and I complete the task, should we guide them in leveling up? Will that increase efficiency?”
Nodding, Li Yao said, “Of course, that’s exactly why I want you to finish your tasks as soon as possible.”
“Big brother, it’s already night, can we complete the occupational task?” Tongtong asked. “If we can, I will go now, then guide them in leveling up. I’ve always wanted to be the boss, hehe.”
“The tasks usually involve entering a Mirror Space and the nighttime won’t affect it. So, you can set off now. Fruit and Feng Yi should not hang around here either, hurry up and level up. Now, those big guilds must be going crazy. Since we are the initiators, we naturally can’t lag behind,” remarked Li Yao.
“Hmm, okay. So, let’s go our separate ways.” Everyone dispersed immediately.
Li Yao used the Hearthstone in the mine control room, then went to find the mentor for the Hunter profession at the Tower of the Sun.
There is a Hunter Mentor at every Beginner’s Village or whichever main city he chose. Li Yao could have stayed in Undercity too, but he knew that Mentor Eileen was very strong, not like the common mentors in the Beginner’s Village.
In order to gain her favor, Li Yao naturally had to come back here to do tasks.
“I didn’t expect you to advance to tier two so quickly, well done.” Eileen was delighted to see Li Yao, “You truly are worthy of being the heir of the general, the first rookie to become tier two.”
Li Yao bowed, saying, “Mentor, you flatter me. My growth is also indebted to your nurturing and care. This is a gift I brought back from the seabed for you. I hope you won’t take offense.”
“This is Gold Sand?” Eileen laughed, “It’s not easy for you rookies to earn money. You don’t have to give me these. You could sell it for quite a few Gold Coins, or you could keep it to strengthen your power.”
Li Yao smiled and placed a box in Eileen’s hand, saying, “Mentor, take a closer look. This is not Gold Sand.”
Eileen took a meticulous look, immediately revealing a surprised smile, “So, it is Gold Pearl Powder, this is too precious. I can’t accept it.” freёnovelkiss.com
“What’s precious and what’s not, this is a gift from my guild’s ally, the Frogman Prince. There is no use for me; a big man to keep it,” Li Yao replied while stepping back, not taking back the box that was being returned.
“Well, okay then, I suppose if I decline any longer, it would appear insincere.” Delighted, Eileen kept the Gold Pearl Powder and said, “Since you and the Frogman Prince are allies, let me give you a piece of advice. Whenever you can, exchange some Deep Sea Mermaid Fish Oil, the general should like it.”
“Thank you for your guidance.”
Startled, Li Yao revealed a joyful expression and bowed again.
Indeed, fostering good relationships is highly rewarding. That one piece of advice was worth more to him than a hundred boxes of Gold Pearl Powder.
Through Eileen’s words, Li Yao remembered his casual chat with the female official last time. The official had mentioned that the queen sent a team to sea each quarter to find something. However, their harvest was always meager, and the cost was high.
Now thinking back, they were probably looking for mermaid oil.
Unlike Gold Pearl Powder, which is used for skin nourishment, mermaid oil could maintain the body’s vitality. Even a zombie could look almost human, full of vitality and elasticity, with a little injection of it.
Li Yao finally understood. If he could solve this issue for the queen, then his relationship with the queen would naturally grow closer. It not only demonstrated his concern for the queen but also prevented the undead from losing more experts at sea.
“Don’t thank me, it was just a casual remark. Whether you can understand it and achieve it depends on you.” Eileen laughed. She was growing more and more fond of Li Yao. This clever lad was quick to learn; he grasped her intentions as soon as she dropped a hint, so there was no need for her to explain things explicitly.
Li Yao, still bowing, then said, “Mentor, the reason I have come this time is to undertake the divine beast trial.”
“So, you’ve chosen the Divine Beast path? In fact, since you have received the legacy of the general’s Dark Ranger, the God Hunter trial would be more suitable,” suggested Eileen.
“Personal strength has its limits, and I prefer fighting side by side with my companions,” replied Li Yao.
“Since you’ve made your choice, I won’t insist. After all, it’s up to you to choose your own path. To gain divine beast trials, you first need to have an elite-level animal companion,” Eileen promptly announced a new task.
After accepting the task, Li Yao said, “I don’t have an elite-level companion yet.”
“Then go find one. If you want to follow the Beast King route, it won’t work without a powerful companion.”
“Does this one count?” Li Yao promptly released the Hydra.
With the appearance of the Hydra, agents from other Hunter Mentors also turned their heads to look over. With the increase in the number of players, now each profession has its gathering hall.
“Intermediate boss Hydra, no, it’s a quasi-advance boss about to evolve a third head.” Eileen looked astonished and incredulous as if seeing the undead.
No wonder she was amazed. Ordinary Hydras were not particularly difficult to capture, but very few Hydras could evolve.
Of course, there were quite a few boss Hydras, but the regular ones couldn’t evolve. Usually, three heads were the limit. Ones that could evolve appeared weak at first glance, but they had unlimited growth potential.
“Mentor, you have a good eye,” Li Yao wasn’t surprised, considering after all, Eileen was a faction-level boss.
“Huh, you kept this well hidden. No wonder even the general looks at you differently. Owning a divine pet at such a young age, work hard. Sooner or later, you will surpass me.” With a wave of her hand, Eileen allowed Li Yao to complete the task.
“I will work hard,” affirmed Li Yao, without revealing his other pets. Otherwise, Eileen definitely wouldn’t have been able to accept it, considering that it would be too contrary.
At this stage, it was not impossible to capture bosses as pets, but pets that could evolve are one in a million.
“You have met the conditions for the divine beast trial. Now, I will take you to complete the second step of the trial.” Eileen said, kneeling on one knee in front of the statue of a tall beast god of indistinguishable race, and she recited a spell.
Light beams shot from the eyes of the beast god and hit the two of them. They immediately vanished.
Soon after, they appeared in a gigantic arena. Eileen said, “This is the trial space created by the divine beast. Are you sure you are ready to undertake the divine beast trial?”
“I am ready,” said Li Yao…
