Chapter 186 New Mission
Chapter 186 New Mission
"It looks like I can't stay here for too long. I have to plan to leave early." Since the Elemental City is in turmoil, he is not a fool and naturally will not take the initiative to enter the center of this "vortex".
Just as he was thinking this, Su Yuhong's figure appeared in his mind. He felt a little worried about this. If he asked her to leave like this, she would definitely not agree.
After all, her sister is still with the teacher, and it is unrealistic for her to abandon her sister, unless she can take her sister with her.
But this is easier said than done. She doesn't even know the teacher's background well. Those "No. 0" and "No. 1" just sound weird, not to mention that her sister is also that kind of person.
As for his mother and sister, they lived in a village far away from here, and the undercurrent of the Elemental City should not reach there, so he was not too worried.
When Qi Yu thought of this, he suddenly felt a headache, but he had no good solution now. After thinking it over, he decided that the top priority now was to try his best to improve his strength before the big event came.
After all, more strength means more capital to deal with things. How can you protect yourself without strength?
Thinking of this, Qi Yu returned to the dormitory, but just as he arrived at the door of the dormitory building, he saw an acquaintance waving at him at the door.
Looking at the familiar green bird on the other person's shoulder, Qi Yu frowned slightly: What is coming will eventually come.
Qi Yu knew with his toes that Wu Yi must have come for the mission of Frost Core, but the Frost Core had been thrown away when he used it to break the impasse, so he couldn't get it out at all.
"When an enemy comes, we will fight him with our troops; when a flood comes, we will block it with earth. At worst, I can just return the money to him, but I don't seem to have that much money right now. I wonder if I can write an IOU..."
While thinking in his mind, Qi Yu gestured towards the woods on the right, then turned around and walked over.
Wu Yi turned his head to look at the bird, then shrugged and followed slowly.
The two soon arrived at the old place - the small wooden house where they had talked before. As soon as they entered, Wu Yi smiled and said:
"Brother Yu, have you had a good rest these days?"
Qi Yu turned around and looked at Wu Yi, nodded without changing his expression, and said casually: "Not bad, how come you have time to come to my place?"
Wu Yi smiled after hearing this, and waved his hand while saying, "Brother Yu, you are joking. I have to put the task assigned by the teacher first. As soon as I heard that you came back from the auction, I immediately found time to look for you."
Then he narrowed his eyes, smiled and asked, "Did you get the stuff?"
Qi Yu looked a little unnatural. He lowered his head and hesitated for a moment, then shook his head gently.
Wu Yi was surprised when he saw this: "Failed? How could that happen? Didn't you have enough money to take the photo?"
Qi Yu shook his head after hearing this.
"What happened? Was it lost? Or was it damaged?" Wu Yi asked anxiously.
Qi Yu was still shaking his head at this time. He didn't know whether he should tell him the cause and effect of the matter. In his subconscious mind, he naturally didn't want to tell him. After all, this incident was of great importance, and even the entire Elemental City was involved. Based on the principle of less trouble is worse than more, he didn't want to say it.
However, if he didn't say it, he would not be able to explain that he had not completed the task assigned by Liu Hao. This put him in a dilemma and he was very conflicted.
What's more, the mana crystal as a reward for the mission has already been absorbed by him, so he can't return it even if he wants to.
Seeing Qi Yu's appearance at this moment, Wu Yi's eyes flashed with a smile, but he quickly hid it and asked seriously: "Brother Yu, what happened?"
Qi Yu frowned and answered vaguely: "Someone snatched it away."
"Stolen?" Wu Yi asked in surprise following Qi Yu's words.
"Yes, it was snatched away by the people from the Water Element Academy. That crazy woman from the Water Element Academy brought more than 20 apprentices to block me. I was outnumbered and had no chance to fight back." Qi Yu said hatefully.
Wu Yi immediately began to pace around the room after hearing this, and while pacing he deliberately muttered to himself: "Oh, what should I do? The teacher is pushing me hard..."
Qi Yu gritted his teeth at this time. He was indeed in the wrong in this matter. After all, he agreed to other people's task requests and took the task rewards, but in the end he was unable to complete it. He even felt embarrassed about what he had done.
Wu Yi looked up and peeked at Qi Yu's expression. He felt that the time was almost ripe. Just when Qi Yu was about to talk about compensation, Wu Yi suddenly changed the subject and said, "But don't worry, brother Yu. There are solutions."
Qi Yu was stunned. He didn't react for a while, so he subconsciously asked: "What method?"
Wu Yi chuckled and whispered, "The solution is very simple. Recently, I heard the teacher talking about something. If you can get this thing, the teacher will definitely not hold you responsible for the failure of this mission. I'm sure he will even give you a reward."
Qi Yu became alert after hearing this. He felt like he was being tricked, but he still asked, "What is it?"
"A doll."
"doll?"
Qi Yu asked doubtfully, "Are you sure?"
Wu Yi nodded: "I'm sure, and its name should be called "Clothing Merchant Voodoo Doll."
Qi Yu was startled, but quickly calmed down and said, "What voodoo doll? I have never heard of this thing. Where can I find it for you?"
Wu Yi smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Don't worry, I know where it is. You just need to go and get it. How about it? Do you want to do it?"
When Qi Yu heard this, he suddenly seemed to understand something - Oh my god, it seems that he has been tricked, and his real purpose is here!
Thinking of this, Qi Yu suddenly raised his head and stared into Wu Yi's eyes, and asked with a bad look:
"By the way, did you already know that the people from the Water Element Academy would come to snatch the 'Frost Core'? And you also knew that it would definitely be taken away."
Wu Yi showed an innocent expression after hearing this: "Don't say that, Brother Yu. We didn't even know that someone from the Water Element Academy would come to stop you."
Qi Yu looked at Wu Yi's innocent face, curled his lips, and his complexion suddenly darkened. He spat lightly: "Who would believe that? The reason you asked me to buy the "Frost Core" before was just a prelude to this matter, right?"
Wu Yi waved his hand gently and did not deny it. Instead, he changed the subject and said, "Brother Yu, even if we knew that someone would come to block you, the reward for this mission is completely worth the difficulty of this mission."
Wu Yi gestured and continued, "Otherwise, how could it be so easy to get so many platinum coins and mana crystals? It's not such a good thing, don't you think?"
Qi Yu was stunned when he heard this, but when he thought of his life-threatening experience, he became furious and stared at Wu Yi and said:
"Wu Yi, go back and tell Teacher Liu that if there are any tasks in the future, just tell him directly. There is no need to go through all these roundabout ways like this time. For the sake of two mana crystals per month, I will keep my word and do my best to help him."
Then he changed the subject: "As for you, Wu Yi, don't let me know that you are behind this, or we will settle all our old and new grudges together!"
Having said that, Qi Yu stood up and prepared to leave.
"Tell me the place then."
After saying that, he slammed the door, turned around and walked out, leaving Wu Yi with a helpless smile in the room.
