Chapter 140 Surrounded

Sitting in the tavern during a break, Gu Fei immediately informed Xi Yao Wu upon receiving a message from Young Master Han. They both activated their Wind Chasing Emblems, disappearing from the tavern in a flash of white light. Those players who had been watching their stationary coordinate numbers for a while rushed to the tavern, only to find it empty. Upon refreshing, they saw the coordinates were so distant that some experienced players concluded, "Damn it, those two have Wind Chasing Emblems too."

The two teleported to the wanted task office. There were still some players inside, but they posed no threat to the two experts. They quickly turned in and picked up tasks. Gu Fei had 12 PK points left, while Xi Yao Wu had only 6.

Many players were no longer enthusiastic about these tasks, feeling it was just a waste of time. Some even hoped the two would quickly wash away their PK points so they could forcibly end the task and take on others.

Gu Fei and Xi Yao Wu each went to find their own targets, while Young Master Han and the others remained in place.

"Shouldn't be anything else happening, right?" After squatting for so long, You Ge stood up, rubbing his numb legs.

"Hmm..." Young Master Han responded vaguely, his eyes scanning around as if waiting for someone.

"What else could happen?" The others asked quickly upon seeing his actions.

Young Master Han nodded his head in a certain direction. The others looked and saw Yun Zhong Mu rushing towards them with a large group of people. Without a word, they charged directly into the wanted task office. Some shouts and curses could be faintly heard. Before long, some players rushed out of the office clutching their heads, fleeing in panic.

Then Yun Zhong Mu led his brothers out of the room, his gaze sweeping around majestically. Seeing some players standing there blankly, he immediately pointed and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Ta... task..." The players were dazed. They didn't know what they had done to offend these big shots.

"What task? No wanted tasks allowed today, go, go, go!" Yun Zhong Mu chased away all the players. His eyes turned, and he finally saw the five people squatting or standing against the wall across the way. He quickly strode over.

"How is it? Is Brother Qian Li alright?" Yun Zhong Mu asked with concern.

"We're fine, we're fine!" You Ge replied on behalf of everyone. "The PK points are almost washed away."

"Why didn't you give us a heads up? Look at this mess!" Yun Zhong Mu said.

Naturally, there were also people from the Ten Guild Alliance doing PK washing tasks. Some had even chased after Gu Fei. After all, only a few of the four thousand plus people recognized Gu Fei.

Later, a member of the Ten Guild Alliance who recognized Gu Fei finally met him and realized that the Super Mario causing a stir in the city was Qian Li Zui. He quickly told Yun Zhong Mu, who hastily gathered a group of brothers to come and help.

The Ten Guild Alliance was indeed a dominant force in Yueye City. The wanted task office was immediately occupied by these guys, and players who wanted to take on tasks were told to come back later. How long was later? Whenever Gu Fei's PK points were washed away, that would be the end of later.

Gu Fei and Xi Yao Wu were unaware of this. Fortunately, Gu Fei was the first to return after taking down his target. He returned to the task hall and found it empty. He was naturally surprised. He took on a task and went out, only to see a dark mass of people.

Gu Fei was shocked. So many people were blocking the way, why didn't anyone warn him? Did those guys think everything was fine and run off to play somewhere?

Just as he was about to start killing and running, some of the guys facing Gu Fei shouted, "Brother Qian Li is back!"

Everyone turned around, and Yun Zhong Mu pushed through the crowd, grabbing Gu Fei's hands and saying, "Brother Qian Li, you've worked hard."

"Ah... not hard." Gu Fei was stunned.

"These bastards in our Yueye City just like to wash PK points for no reason. What's the point of washing? Look at me, I never wash even if I have PK points," Yun Zhong Mu said.

"That's right, that's right." Gu Fei echoed a couple of times, of course understanding the intention of this large group of people. No matter what, it was out of good intentions. Gu Fei expressed his gratitude and then said, "It's almost washed away, everyone doesn't need to go to so much trouble, let's just call it a day!"

"How many PK points are left?" Yun Zhong Mu asked.

"7 points!" Before Gu Fei could speak, someone behind Yun Zhong Mu had already answered. There were actually quite a few people in the Ten Guild Alliance who knew Gu Fei's level.

"Then that's still two more tasks! We'll help you guard here," Yun Zhong Mu said.

"Really, there's no need to trouble yourselves," Gu Fei said.

"We're all brothers, what's with the formalities?" Yun Zhong Mu didn't think anything of it. Gu Fei was helpless and was about to send a message to Xi Yao Wu to let her know in case of misunderstanding when he heard the door open behind him and Xi Yao Wu cry out, "Damn it, we're surrounded!"

When Gu Fei turned around, Xi Yao Wu had already disappeared into stealth. Gu Fei quickly shouted, "Don't attack, they're friendly!"

Everything was silent. Everyone was staring at the air.

Xi Yao Wu's fiery red figure slowly faded, and she had already rushed to Yun Zhong Mu's side, her dagger almost slicing Yun Zhong Mu's head off.

"Is this your friend?" Xi Yao Wu blinked and said.

"Yeah!" Gu Fei knocked down Xi Yao Wu's arm, which was still holding a dagger against Yun Zhong Mu's neck, and pulled her away. "Let's continue with the task!"

Yun Zhong Mu still felt a chill on his neck. If Gu Fei hadn't shouted quickly, he might have really been killed by Xi Yao Wu. As a thief, he was shocked and uncertain. Moving so fast while in stealth, who is this person?

"What's this female warrior's name?" Yun Zhong Mu had already asked.

"Xi Yao Wu," Xi Yao Wu introduced herself.

"Oh..." Everyone exclaimed. These bandits had also heard of the name of this number one RMB warrior, currently the number one person in Parallel World.

"Let's go, let's go!" Gu Fei called out to everyone while dragging Xi Yao Wu away.

At this time, Xi Yao Wu had only 1 PK point left, which would be washed away after this task. Gu Fei had 7 points, which was just a matter of two tasks. The citywide commotion finally came to an end. After thanking Yun Zhong Mu again, Yun Zhong Mu and his brothers dispersed, and Xi Yao Wu went to find the girls from Resplendent Amethyst. Gu Fei watched both parties leave, dusted off his mage robe, and turned back towards the wanted task office.

"What are you going to do?" The five members of Young Master's elite group under the wall asked blankly.

"Task!" Gu Fei said.

"Isn't it already washed away?" The five said.

Gu Fei turned his head, and the five also realized that the wanted task was Gu Fei's main game activity.

"Tch!" The five gave him the middle finger and dispersed from under the wall in a line.

At this time, the Four Seas Studio's guild task at the dungeon had long ended. A large group of people gathered, fully prepared, but in the end, there was no battle at all. After Sword Without Oath paid the fee, what he took out from the dungeon was not cargo, but a person. To be precise, it was an NPC. Disheveled, wearing rough prison clothes, and with his hands and feet chained.

The task plot was also clearer at this time. It was said that this NPC held an important position in a certain main city, but was later investigated for corruption. He then fled and was unfortunately captured here in Yueye City. The Four Seas Studio's guild task was to escort this corrupt official back to his main city for trial.

Of course, only the people from Four Seas Studio knew this plot. The mercenary players had been squatting at the dungeon door for a long time, doing nothing, and were very unhappy. Sword Without Oath also regretted it. If he had known it would be so simple, he would have taken the person out early and everyone would have set off. As a result, he spent a lot of time arranging formations and arming himself at the dungeon door. Moreover, many people had learned that they would not be setting off today and didn't know where they had gone to play.

Helpless, he could only continue with the decision to set off tomorrow. The mercenary players dispersed, but Sword Without Oath didn't know what to do with this NPC he had taken out. Should he always carry him while leveling? What if he went offline?

As a result, he fainted when he asked the task NPC.

It was no problem to carry him while leveling, but if this guy suffered any misfortune and died, the task would of course be considered a failure. This was not the main problem. More importantly, if he wanted to go offline, then he had to temporarily return this person to the dungeon. The dungeon was a system institution, so of course it would charge a management fee, which was the same fee Sword Without Oath paid when he took the person out today. This meant that Sword Without Oath had taken the person out for nothing today and spent money for nothing. When he wanted to go offline, he had to put the person back, and when he wanted to set off tomorrow, he had to come back, pay the money, and take the person out again.

Sword Without Oath angrily stuffed the NPC back into the dungeon and dispersed with his brothers.

Gu Fei was happily farming wanted tasks. Players in Yueye City all had high PK points, and there were a lot of players with PK points of 5. Otherwise, Gu Fei and Xi Yao Wu wouldn't have washed their PK points so quickly.

Of course, higher PK points meant richer rewards. Gu Fei's experience was increasing, his wallet was getting fatter, and he was satisfying his fighting addiction. At this point in the game, he had no other requests. Jian Gui and the others sent a message saying that they had discovered some new tasks in Yunduan City that were not available here, asking if he wanted to do them. Gu Fei refused them all.

If he wanted something new, the tasks in Yunduan City would all be new to Gu Fei. If he wanted to do them, he would have done them already. For tasks, wanted tasks were the best!

Gu Fei thought as he took care of his current target. Then, he slapped his Wind Chasing Emblem and flew back to the wanted task office. At this time, Gu Fei put on a mask like the players in Yueye City. The busy players in the wanted task office had no idea that the person in front of them was the one they had been busy chasing just now.

After waiting in line, he finally squeezed to the task window. Gu Fei sighed. This was the only thing he was dissatisfied with about the wanted tasks in Yueye City: there were too many people.

Thinking of first turning in the task he had just completed, he was about to take on a new one when he heard a "ding" from the system prompt.

A long-lost "ding." This was the "ding" when there was a special reward for completing a task.
