Chapter 928: Chapter 584 Task Preparation

Mr. All-known and the pond owner both turned their gaze as if they were watching a drama unfold.

After all, General Li Ba’s name was too dazzling. It was rare to watch Li Changhe become the center of gossip.

"That’s not it!" Li Changhe said with a face full of frustration.

Of course, he wasn’t into flat chests; it just so happened that the girl wasn’t too busty... In this regard, as her boyfriend, Li Changhe was the one with the most say.

In fact, Xiao Nan had always been self-conscious about her figure, more or less affected by that bastard Chen Yu’s provocations.

"So you mean you do prefer them bigger?" Chen Yu teased, "I might have to tattle on you to her."

"Too much, man. Just get going," Li Changhe complained as he waved them off, and passed the Mo Jade to Chen Yu, asking her to take Brother Ting for a good tour since he couldn’t bring the Symbiotic Body into the task this time.

Chen Yu’s words, however, did not only sting Li Changhe.

Off to the side, Qiu Wentian’s face stiffened a bit.

That was her taboo subject. The last player who made comments about her body got chased for nine streets by her and ended up with three broken ribs.

But as she watched Chen Yu teasing Li Changhe and especially the attractive undulations wrapped by the dark T-shirt beneath her trench coat,

even Qiu Wentian, a woman herself, couldn’t help thinking about which lucky guy would get to embrace this girl without restraint.

So she completely lost her temper.

’Fine, you win. You’re the boss.’ Qiu Wentian muttered.

"Then I wish you luck," Chen Yu said as she took the Mo Jade and headed for the door.

After Chen Yu left, the four of them steadied their minds before starting their introductions.

The task triggering requirements for this time were having a strong connection to Extraordinary Cause and Effect, being within Yanyun’s territory, and fulfilling one hidden requirement.

The official guess for the so-called hidden requirement was related to those thirteen Extraordinaries.

However, it was odd that Li Changhe could trigger it.

Because Qiu Wentian, who bore Confucian Cause and Effect, had a master who was the junior brother of one of the thirteen Extraordinaries.

The pond owner’s ancestral ties were especially close with one of them, who was also a member of the investigation at the time.

As for Mr. All-known Pan Ke, it was even more understandable since the Mr. All-known of that time was his great ancestor.

From this point of view, Li Changhe had basically no connection to the thirteen Extraordinaries.

"So... could Yun Ting’s death have something to do with one of those thirteen Extraordinaries?" Mr. All-known analyzed, "But that’s not right. We can be sure that all thirteen have died. So, who could it be targeting Yun Ting after that? We’ve chased that person for so long and fought many times, but we’ve never found any indications that the person was among the thirteen."

"Perhaps someone has taken over a certain plan. Everything will be clear once we enter the task." The pond owner spoke up, "Anyways, we can now confirm that it has to do with the Tianyan Association’s methods. If we encounter them, just take them down, doesn’t matter if they’re one of the thirteen."

"I agree. I’ll help," Qiu Wentian, emerging from Chen Yu’s shadow, nodded her agreement. She had been informed of Li Changhe’s purpose for entering the task this time.

Given her personality, she wouldn’t stand by idly.

Actually, Li Changhe asking Chen Yu to take Yun Ting away was also to avoid talking.

So she doesn’t get upset by the sight.

Instead of making her feel bad, it’s better to just get things done right.

"Hidden conditions and the like are not important, I don’t mind," Li Changhe said calmly, "I just hope the task’s time frame is before the tragedy happens. Let’s first talk about the dangers we may encounter this time."

"This time, our abilities, other than our attributes, will be sealed. But we are all players above LV10. Our attributes are already not low, and with extraordinary methods, we won’t be weak," Mr. All-known continued, "The only difficulty this time will be the issue of identity."

"Identity?"

"That’s right, those thirteen Transcendents gathered to intercept a group of foreign extraordinary beings who were executing some sort of plan," Mr. All-known explained, "And for players of our level, just our attributes alone would suggest we are extraordinary. To them, we are masters who suddenly appeared, and it’s very likely they will become suspicious or even misunderstand. There really aren’t many extraordinaries, and Yanyun gathering so many unfamiliar ones will arouse their suspicions."

"They will take action against us?" Qiu Wentian asked, feeling it would be quite rash to suddenly find that cheap master of his and claim to be his nephew from over twenty years in the future—probably nobody would believe it.

"That shouldn’t happen, they can sense the extraordinary cause and effect on us," the fish pond owner said, "Perhaps we should try explaining directly to them? I saw that senior Transcendent when I was a child."

"Explain directly that they will die at the hands of Yanyun? Say we come from twenty years in the future?" Qiu Wentian said, "Wouldn’t they disbelieve us? If I were one of the strongest thirteen of the time, and someone suddenly popped up claiming I would die and that they are my descendants, my first impulse would probably be to strike them."

"This indeed could be attempted. Yuan Tiangang I met in the Great Tang also foresaw the existence of players." Li Changhe in the Great Tang also adopted this direct approach, straightforwardly informing the court officials of Great Tang’s fate. As they were panicking, they played for keeps trying to change history.

Of course, they succeeded, the Eternal Prosperous Tang Dynasty, the Expeditionary Army of Great Tang, a million-strong steel torrent... even able to wrestle with the Blood River Evil God.

"However, we do come from twenty years in the future. Since we already know that some aberrant events will occur at that time in Yanyun, we could also indirectly strengthen the extraordinaries’ combat power," Li Changhe pondered and said, "Mr. All-known, if you go back, can you contact the Extraordinary Association of that period?"

"Of course, our way has unique methods of contact," Mr. All-known smiled, "We’ve had the same idea. Once we get there, I’ll use my methods to draw more members of the Extraordinary Association to Yanyun, thus increasing our side’s chances of winning."

It’s like knowing in advance that An Lushan will rebel and arranging for a hundred and eighty Executioners to be by his side in advance.

Since we already know trouble will ensue, best to use our informational advantage to solve problems beforehand.

"I see, if enough extraordinaries come, we could blend in as well," the fish pond owner thought and asked, "What do you say, if my dad from that period also shows up, wouldn’t it be super awkward for me?"

"Then your old man is probably in for a lot of embarrassing history," Li Changhe shrugged, "If he calls you ’brother’, you better not agree to it. That would shorten your life."

The fish pond owner’s face twisted with the notion, feeling it was indeed quite possible. The old man especially liked making friends.

"Alright then, everyone prepare yourselves. Let’s proceed to the task," the four of them left the room and entered the next-door task preparation room.

"Hey, Archer." At this moment, following behind Li Changhe, Qiu Wentian clutched Li Changhe’s arm and said, "Let’s put the task aside for now. I’m here to help you with your revenge."

"Thank you!" Li Changhe said earnestly, "Then I owe you a favor."

Putting aside the player’s task to deal with personal vendettas—this indeed was a big favor.

"Not necessary, I also can’t stand these things," Qiu Wentian thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "However, if you could do me a favor, that would be great."

"Go ahead."

"Could you ask Chen Yu if she has any techniques or secrets that allow her to be that... large?" Qiu Wentian asked with a dead-serious face, as if he were not joking.

"Chen..." Li Changhe’s face twitched, "Then you go ask! Better I face off against a Demigod alone. At least death would come with some dignity!"

"We’re not that familiar... and I want to maintain my dignity as a Champion Level player," Qiu Wentian said somewhat sheepishly.
