Chapter 565: Chapter 2 Ready for Everything, The Whole Army Attacks_2

The only offensive spell is the Devil Fire Skill.

But later on, if I get more Demon Arts, this might become an issue. Should I just respec and go the magic damage route?

Xiao Jie is also hesitating on this point.

Of course, for now, it was out of the question. Spellcasting hadn’t taken shape yet, so he could only continue down the physical path.

Xiao Jie didn’t waste the exchanged equipment either; he listed all of it on the auction house. Although their attributes were ordinary, they might recoup some of the cost.

Looking at the silver in his inventory, over two hundred taels of silver had dwindled to just over thirty in the blink of an eye.

How tragic, the money hadn’t even had time to warm up.

And he couldn’t even be frugal with these thirty taels.

He had to buy all sorts of elixirs and talismans that were needed, and after restocking, there were only 5 taels of silver left in his bag.

Xiao Jie couldn’t help but lament; he was penniless once again.

But this is a life-and-death game, so naturally, he can’t be stingy. Every piece of silver must be transformed into combat power as much as possible; only by staying alive can one talk about the future.

Besides, there’s no need to worry about money. If the Beiming State expedition is a success, there will be plenty of money. Plus, the food and equipment he listed in the auction house should return tens of taels in costs.

Just as he was pondering, a few more people entered the auction house, all from the Luoyang Branch.

"Hey, Feng, are you here buying stuff too?"

"Yeah, the action’s tomorrow. I have to be fully prepared."

Xiao Jie greeted a few familiar guild members, and as he looked beyond the auction house entrance, he saw Jiu Jianxian coming toward him.

"Ah, Feng, I’ve been looking for you."

Initially, Jiu Jianxian was quite arrogant, naturally so with his Level over 30 advantage; in this game, that made him quite an expert.

But ever since he asked Xiao Jie for help with learning the Supreme Sword Skill, the way he addressed him changed from Brother Sui Feng to Feng.

"Something you need from me?"

"I want to ask for your help in examining this task I’ve received." Jiu Jianxian said and recounted the process of activating his Sword Demon task.

At first, Xiao Jie found the story interesting but frowned as he listened on.

"Wait a minute, the reward for the task given by Sword Demon is... not a Supreme Sword Skill?" At this point, Xiao Jie immediately sensed something was amiss.

When the Tree Demon in Ginkgo Village gave him a task previously, the reward was also a mystery.

At that time, he found it unreliable, which led to him exposing the Tree Demon with I Want to Be Immortal, triggering another opposite task in the process.

A mysterious reward like that seems unreliable; after all, NPCs in this game can lie too.

"Yes, I also found it strange, but then I thought maybe Sword Demon has more than one set of Supreme Sword Skill, so he needs me to choose when the time comes? What’s wrong, Feng?"

"This task of yours might carry risks. I’ve undertaken a task with a similar reward before."

Xiao Jie recounted the Tree Demon task to Jiu Jianxian.

"So you exposed the Tree Demon?" Jiu Jianxian was surprised, you can play the game like that?

"Exactly."

Immediately, Jiu Jianxian made the connection, "So can I also report the Sword Demon and get the Supreme Sword Skill from Long Yuan?"

Xiao Jie replied: "I’m afraid that’s not possible. The Tree Demon Derivative appeared behind the village, and the task it gave was a threat to the village. Reporting it could be seen as removing a problem for the village, and if we didn’t report, it might have lured others to free it.

Moreover, we then helped to kill the Tree Demon Derivative.

But your situation is different, the Sword Demon is already imprisoned, at most reporting would just tighten the security, not considered a great feat, you can’t exactly kill Sword Demon... Oh, but that seems possible."

"Kill Sword Demon?" Jiu Jianxian was taken aback, but quickly caught on.

After all, NPCs in the game can drop equipment, and someone like Sword Demon could potentially drop Supreme Martial Arts.

"If you do report it, you’d probably just increase your reputation with the Heroic Alliance, but it’s not entirely hopeless, if Long Yuan takes a liking to you, he might agree to give you a task."

Jiu Jianxian, however, smiled bitterly; Long Yuan did not get along well with him. Whenever he spoke to Long Yuan, there was never a friendly face, so this might be difficult.

Xiao Jie continued analyzing: "Now you have three choices, 1, continue with the task, watch and wait. If Sword Demon has some special scheme, there will definitely be a twist in the task. For example, after you complete the kill, he obviously won’t hand over the Supreme Sword Skill easily, he may ask you to help him restore his power, or even to aid his escape, and then teach you the sword technique, drawing you in step by step."

"2, report to the Heroic Alliance, exchange for Favorability, and there is a very slight chance to get on Long Yuan’s good side and trigger the quest line for the Supreme Sword Skill, but it feels unlikely. After all, it’s just reporting. Our previous killing of the Tree Demon Derivative just got us a Magic Artifact, and we had to supply the materials ourselves."

"3, simply Chop down Sword Demon. It’s possible he’ll drop it outright, but the chances are slim. After all, since Sword Demon has been imprisoned, any secret books on him would have been taken long ago. But you never know, it’s a game after all – if wild boars can drop leather armor, why not secrets from Sword Demon.

However, since Sword Demon was imprisoned instead of killed, it means that the Heroic Alliance is not willing to execute him, and if you kill him, you’d probably need to flee immediately, otherwise, you risk getting apprehended."

Xiao Jie gave Jiu Jianxian a thorough analysis, and after a long struggle, Jiu Jianxian said, "I’ll choose option 1."
