Chapter 1884 The Conflict
"Is it a game world? I've heard of this world before, but I'm not very familiar with it."
"Yes, Ciboreya is one of the domains where our necromancy teachings spread. It's also one of the game worlds where players who study necromancy often gather. However, at present, Ciboreya is under a direct assault from the Holy Court."
"Fang Heng, you might be surprised. This matter is related to you," Gu Luo said solemnly.
"Me?" Fang Heng looked puzzled. "Why do you say that, Teacher?"
"The root of this incident is the Holy Court's Saintess, Viona," Gu Luo continued, casting a glance at Fang Heng. "Do you remember Feudal Lord Dani?"
"Yes, I do." Fang Heng affirmed.
In the beginning, he and Feudal Lord Dani had a conflict of interest, but when faced with the same enemy and common interests, both sides only used three sentences to decide on a cooperation strategy.
After the cooperation, Dani was very cooperative throughout the whole cooperation, her performance was perfect.
"Feudal Lord Dani attempted to seize Viona to complete a mission I assigned. After that, Saintess Viona disappeared, and the Federation was in a mess. The Holy Court turned their attention to Feudal Lord Dani"
Fang Heng nodded in recognition of the situation.
"Indeed, Feudal Lord Dani took the bullet for me. It was part of our cooperation agreement." Fang Heng thought.
"The world that Feudal Lord Dani is in is Ciboreya," Gu Luo elaborated. "The Holy Court's actions there aim to locate the Saintess. They believe there's evidence linking her disappearance to Feudal Lord Dani."
"Feudal Lord Dani now leads Ciboreya's necromancy faction against the Holy Court. The necromancy faction's higher-ups are reluctant to engage in a full-scale war, fearing a complete rupture between necromancy and the Holy Court."
"With the current situation, Feudal Lord Dani's side might not hold out much longer. They'll likely opt to evacuate from Ciboreya soon."
"As you know, the traditionalists in the necromancy faction have a history of tolerating the Holy Court, believing a small territory isn't worth a major confrontation."
"Taking a step back today will only embolden the Holy Court to take even more tomorrow!"
Teacher Gu Luo's frustration was palpable.
"Necromancy is bound to suffer at the hands of these traditionalists sooner or later!"
"Fang Heng, the enemy we face now is formidable, and the support the necromancy faction can offer is minimal, almost negligible. I don't expect you to obliterate the Holy Court army, but I hope you can make them pay a price. At the very least, don't let them easily claim Ciboreya."
"Can you do it?" Gu Luo inquired about Fang Heng.
Game notifications continued flashing across Fang Heng's retina.
[Hint: Player triggered a special main mission, Rescue Ciboreya (Team collaborative) (Maximum of 5 team members)]
[Mission name: Rescue Ciboreya]
[Mission difficulty: S]
[Mission Description: Ciboreya, one of the bases of necromancy, is currently under attack by the Holy Court's army. Due to certain reasons, Teacher Gu Luo and the necromancy faction cannot directly join the battlefield. Teacher Gu Luo hopes that you will assist the necromancy faction in resisting the Holy Court's attack and display the necromancy faction's strength to intimidate the Holy Court.]
[Mission requirement: Please assist Ciboreya in resisting the Holy Court's encroachment from all aspects. Attack the Holy Court on all fronts. Any attack and completion of the relevant mission will grant corresponding mission completion rates.]
[Current mission completion: 0%.]
[Reward Description: After the mission enters the settlement stage, if the completion rate reaches 200%, you can find Teacher Gu Luo to obtain the master level necromancy advancement book (If it has not reached 200%, you can obtain a portion of the necromancy experience points according to the completion rate).]
[Mission time limit: After the fall of Ciboreya or the retreat of the Holy Court, the player will be forced to enter the mission settlement stage. The player can also submit the mission to Teacher Gu Luo at any time to settle the mission in advance (if the completion rate of the mission settlement is less than 20%, Teacher Gu Luo's favorability will be reduced).]
Fang Heng glanced at the mission notification.
Interesting.
Very clear.
Completing this mission to 200% allows one to advance to the master level of necromancy.
The difficulty was not low.
Teacher Gu Luo also revealed that if the mission is completed exceptionally, one can obtain a higher-tire grandmaster level necromancy advancement reward!
Therefore, the mission could still be completed beyond 200%.
Swipe!
Fang Heng closed the game notification and nodded. "Teacher, I understand. I'm ready. I can set off for Ciboreya at any time."
"Yes, Feudal Lord Dani is leading this mission. You can approach her for details about Ciboreya. Also, this is a team mission. You can invite your companions to join the team. Ciboreya's situation is worsening rapidly, so hurry. The teleportation channel in Pnoze will be open to mission-related individuals during this time. You can use it directly."
"Thank you, Teacher. I'll start on the mission."
Fang Heng nodded respectfully at Teacher Gu Luo before leaving the room.
Outside the door, Li Qingran had been waiting. When Fang Heng emerged, she approached and asked, "Fang Heng, what did the teacher say?"
"Teacher Gu Luo briefed me about the mission at Ciboreya. I agreed to participate."
As he spoke, Fang Heng sent Li Qingran a quest invitation.
Li Qingran sighed with relief and promptly accepted.
[Hint: Player Li Qingran has joined your shared team mission.]
Having familiarized herself with the mission's outline, Li Qingran inquired, "Fang Heng, do we need more teammates?"
Teammates?
Fang Heng pondered for a moment.
Indeed, the mission allowed a group of up to five members.
The team shared the mission's completion rate.
As this game world pertained to Ciboreya, he thought about seeking clues related to the great holy sword.
Furthermore, it involved a confrontation with the Holy Court.
If Ji Xiaobo got wind of this, he would surely show up.
He couldn't miss out.
That left two slots open.
His knowledge of other sorcery players was limited.
Keep them open for now.
After considering for a moment, Fang Heng asked, "I have a friend who needs to participate the mission. The other two slots are vacant. Do you have any recommendations?"
"Teacher Gu Luo issued quest announcements publicly a couple of days ago. Many players with good strength have already formed teams. I have a few invites from other groups. If needed, I can help find two reliable candidates with guaranteed strength. We can group up together." "
