I Am A Legendary BOSS-Chapter 342 - Crimson Blood And Mission Selection
Chapter 342 Crimson Blood And Mission Selection
Why did the commoners of the Gods’ continent fear the dark creatures?
Because those devils were too powerful?
No!
The reason was that they looked very ugly. They were so ugly that the Humans instinctively knew they were horrible monsters.
When such a monster that had: fangs, a dark crimson body, a sharp tail on the butt, and muscles all over the body appeared, the commoners could not help feel fearful.
Because dark creatures did not appeal to aesthetics…
After experiencing the utmost terrifying incidents, the commoners who did not have battle energy or magic skills had been intimidated by the devils. They somehow drummed up their courage to find professionals for help.
But most professionals would ignore the pleas for help, as this kind of affairs was handled by the Temple of Light.
Well, it was also possible that the commoners did not dare to seek the temple for help. And because of devils’ intimidation, they became believers in Darkness and the puppets of devils.
When the commoners had made the trip to the Temple of Light, the Temple Knights were too busy to attend to them. Moreover, if the Temple Knights did not find any traces of the devils, they would just ignore the commoners.
Over time, many commoners who had been intimidated by the devils became their puppets as the devils had powerful Mental Strength and were adept in Soul Magic.
They could easily bewitch the commoners. The commoner would then kill other creatures for sacrifices and draw out a Teleportation Portal for the devils to materialize in this world.
Darkness had befallen the Legendary continent.
Countless devils having grotesque faces had appeared in Human society using various means.
They were preparing for the second Darkness Invasion.
The devils had become the a terrifying nightmare in the hearts of many commoners.
The City of Dawn was peaceful and had good security because of good management in the city.
“What are ordinary Humans afraid of? It’s darkness.” Humans, Elves, Dwarfs, and Seraphkins were all intelligent creatures that worshiped Light. They were naturally averse to Darkness.
William squinted. Under his strict orders, every household and even the most remote location that had Humans needed to have sufficient magic lamps.
Could this stop the infiltration of the devils?
No!
But Light could make Humans less fearful.
At least in the absence of total darkness, people who were going home alone would not have the fear of a stalking monster.
After all, the devils would always look for loopholes and weaknesses.
There were many different types of devils.
The devils in the Darkness Army were all muscular brutes. It was useless to let them intimidate Humans. However, they were good at cannibalizing the Humans.
Hence, there existed some devils who had been specifically created to intimidate Humans.
They might have countless fangs or eyes all over the body. They could be monsters that moved in a distorted manner or the terrifying nightmare in the commoners’ dreams!
These devils would pick fearful Humans and infiltrate into their psyche.
“In addition, there are too many professionals in the City of Dawn. In the past two years, besides a few dark incidents, no devils had appeared in the city.
“With the commencement of version 3.0, coupled with the appearance of the fearless players, the devils had no way to survive in the City of Dawn,” William muttered to himself.
To the devils, the chosen ones, who could revive, were monsters that were more perverted than themselves.
In version 3.0, Crimson Blood and The Descent of Darkness were triggered simultaneously.
Crimson Blood was the large-scale battle of the players and the collective main plot mission. Its closing chapter was tied to the reputation of the two Human Grand Duchies and the fate of the vampires.
The Descent of Darkness was too complicated. It was a battle that belonged to the demon hunters and the Temple of Light. The descent of Darkness occurred in all Human countries. These incidents varied in scale and dispersed far apart. The current players were unable to participate in this battle.
Except for a few players who liked to search for clues or become demon hunters, it was much more exciting for everyone to participate in Crimson Blood.
“What I have to do is to issue a mission so that the players can continue with Crimson Blood or let them join the Dawn Mercenary Team to complete mercenary missions.
“I’ll investigate some of the more prominent dark events in my previous life, and improve my diplomatic relations with the leaders of the Human kingdoms and empires.” William pondered for a while before making his decision.
Crimson Blood would trigger a war that would expose the existence of vampire leaders in the two Human Grand Duchies.
It would be a great opportunity for the City of Dawn to declare war in the name of justice.
Were neutral territories not supposed to declare war on Human countries?
The Dawn Mercenary Team could fight against the Human countries without restrictions. The Red Fire Kingdom was at loggerheads with these two vampire grand duchies. But, because of their original covenant, Red Fire Kingdom could not take the initiative to declare war without the vampires killing the Humans en masse.
However, the City of Dawn’s mission in ‘Crimson Blood’ would be to sow discord, expand the scope of the war, and spread the battle of Crimson Blood to all Humans.
The Dawn Mercenary Team would play the role of a warmonger.
But this was the only way for the City of Dawn to reap the most benefits.
Prince William had no reason not to do so.
However…
William did have to accompany the players in this mission.
It was a waste of time for William as he had completely squeezed the players dry.
“After all, I have become stronger by upgrading 10 levels of my battle energy manual, magic skills, and various other skills. Even if I encounter some Grandmaster professionals, I don’t need to be too worried.”
The players were extremely suitable for tying up the loose ends of Crimson Blood.
William was drinking wine on the second-floor balcony while watching the players below. “Though, if I take the initiative to investigate those prominent dark events, it’ll result in much hostility from the Dark World. The Viscount of Darkness might look for me again.”
“However, the City of Dawn is no longer a small city. It has 200,000 troops that are comparable to a third of the Human kingdom in terms of combat effectiveness.”
“It’s decided then.” William stood up. Sunlight shone on his confident and smiling face.
Many players who were stealing glances at William screamed again, “His Royal Highness, look at me, look at me.”
Cute Little Fairy saw this scene while she passed by. She shook her 36D breasts, while her eyes lit up with tiny stars. She sighed and commented, “Oh my God! The charming appearance of His Royal Highness is beyond the imagination of mortals. Why is Prince William becoming more and more handsome…”
A tall male player named ‘I Have Hairy Chest’, who stood beside her, giggled and said, “If Prince William were to become a male prostitute, he’d make a lot of money…”
When the nearby young ladies heard the words, their eyes lit up.
But they scolded him, “Get lost, you shameless cad!”
“Scum, scumbag! How dare you insult the modesty of Prince William? Serves you right for only having an Intermediate Silver equipment set.”
‘I Have Hairy Chest’ shrugged his shoulders and stroked his chin. “I’m being thrifty at the Intermediate level, but I have a Gold quality Advanced equipment set stashed at home.
“Yesterday, I received 10,000 gold coins. I would be a fool if I didn’t take advantage of the 20% discount to obtain a great deal.”
At the same time, a few thieves were visiting his residence…
On the bulletin board of the Dawn Mercenary Team, two missions suddenly appeared.
[Crimson Blood: In the far northern territories of the Emerald Grand Duchy and the Lan Yu Grand Duchy, news about the vampires are rife.
They seem to be competing for a legendary treasure. The Lord of Dawn is very interested in this treasure. Because of the war with the East Sea Metropolis, he is very disgusted with vampires.)
(Mission Introduction: The Lord of Dawn hates vampires. Every vampire can be exchanged for great rewards. He wants to obtain the legendary treasure, or clues about the treasure.]
[Mission Difficulty: S]
(Mission Completion: 0%]
[Mission Direction: It is rumored that the location of the treasure is to be found on a map that is divided into four portions. When the four portions are pieced together, the legendary treasure can be found.
The great Lord of Dawn already has two maps. Each time the chosen ones discover the owner of a map portion, the Mission Completion rate will increase by 30%.]
(Mission requirements: You are already seasoned chosen ones. The Lord of Dawn is eyeing the north. You have to sow discord in these two countries and expose the war of the vampires to everyone.
The degree of chaos in these two countries will determine your final reward.]
[Mission Reward: ???]
[Equipment Reward: ???]
[Contribution Level Reward: ???]
“Gosh! There are vampires in the Legendary Continent. Why didn’t I know that?”
“MD! I knew that Prince William is now eyeing certain Human countries again. I believe that he was the one who sowed discord between the Iron Dukedom and Black Lava Dukedom.”
“I feel this is a conspiracy. Are we going to create trouble?”
“East Sea Metropolis? Oh, I remember it. I had read a card saying that Prince William once led his army to capture a city called East Sea Metropolis. Aren’t there a lot of vampires in the city?”
“That must be the case. The vampires were unfortunate to have antagonized a very vengeful Elf.”
Some players lifted their heads to peer at the second-floor balcony.
The player who had just finished speaking swallowed hard. Sure enough, as soon as he looked up, he found Prince William expressionlessly looking at him.
The second mission was not a big deal.
It indicated that players could accompany the NPC mercenaries to other countries to accept a variety of guarding, attacking, and escorting missions.
However, there were restrictions for participating in these missions.
The players could not maliciously tarnish the credibility of the Dawn Mercenary Team.
Violators would be expelled from the Dawn Mercenary Team, and bounties would be set on their heads for 100 years.
Tsk, tsk!
100 years?
It would kill them many times over until they quit…
Such a piece of information made the players discard their malicious plans.
After all, the bounties were severe enough for the players to create a new game account…
The City of Dawn had become a powerful force, so the players did not dare to go against William.
The players were not in favor of the mercenary missions with many restrictions.
As for the covert mission in Crimson Blood…
“That’s our forte!!!” The players mischievously laughed as they felt that the mission was specially tailored for them.
