MMORPG: Martial Gamer

The map in <> was extremely large. Finding one NPC in the entire map of 300 main cities was like finding a needle in a haystack. Moreover, he was so well hidden in such a remote place and this was no wonder nobody would dare to accept the S grade quest thrown there.

After meeting Assassin Lyon, Lone Vagrant Guest took out the dagger before handing it over to him, "This is the dagger you’ve asked for."

"Leave it there," Lyon lifted his head, glanced at Lone Vagrant Guest before indicating for him to put the dagger on one side. Afterwards, he handed Lone Vagrant Guest a skill book. Simultaneously, Wang Yu’s contract quest was completed and he had 500 more gold in his bag.

[Two Segments Jump]: rare skill. Job requirement: Assassin.

Besides Pugilist, jumping power wouldn’t result in an increase in a person’s attack for any other jobs. However, the jumping ability was incredibly important in terms of a person’s movement, ability to hide as well as the capability to escape. Therefore, any equipment capable of increasing jumping power would be valued highly. In fact, the value of the [Two Segments Jump] was undoubtedly greater than 500 gold. It seemed like Lone Vagrant Guest didn’t suffer any disadvantage during this quest.

Ever since Assassin Lyon laid his eyes on Wang Yu, his eyes never left Wang Yu’s body. After Lone Vagrant Guest completed his quest, Lyon looked into Wang Yu’s eyes as he asked, "I can sense a dark energy emitting from your body. Are you able to tell me why?"

Since the NPC took the initiative to speak to a gamer, it would mean that he had a quest on hand. Hearing the words of Lyon, Wang Yu took out the Heart of Darkness, "This..."

Wang Yu only managed to say one word as he suddenly flipped his hand to secure the Heart of Darkness tightly. Concurrently, he extended his right leg as he waved his hand around the space in front of him. An Assassin was exposed and dragged out of the space by him.

That Assassin’s initial objective was to snatch the Heart of Darkness obtained by Wang Yu. In the end, she was pushed down the cliff by Wang Yu. Now that Wang Yu kicked her again, she cried out ’aiyo’ loudly before falling to the ground.

"Why are you here again?" Lone Vagrant Guest heard the Assassin’s voice and instantly knew that she was lady One Page Book.

Even though One Page Book’s face was fully masked earlier on, her flat chest was too unique for Wang Yu not to recognise her.

After seeing Wang Yu’s Heart of Darkness, Assassin Lyon’s eyes lit up before calming down again.

At this point, Wang Yu and One Page Book exchanged blows once more.

One Page Book used one hand to get off the ground and with a somersault, she stood her ground again. Her left hand formed the shape of a crane to incite a fight before drawing her dagger with her right hand. Both feets got off the ground as she charged towards Wang Yu.

This move was exactly the same move Wang Yu used on her back at the peak of the mountain. It was called [Left Hand Crane Beak].

Without any panic, Wang Yu extended his right arm to lightly block off One Page Book’s [Left Hand Crane Beak]. One Page Book’s dagger was violently headed towards Wang Yu’s throat but Wang Yu’s left hand Tiger Claw was already executed. Seeing the dagger coming his way, he grabbed and twisted One Page Book’s wrist. By exerting some force on both his hands, Wang Yu ruthlessly threw One Page Book down to the ground.

Fortunately, Wang Yu didn’t use any skill during his attack on One Page Book. Otherwise, One Page Book would have died in the hands of Wang Yu again.

Lone Vagrant Guest stared blankly at the two of them. He was utterly speechless at this moment in time.

Even though Lone Vagrant Guest was foreign to martial arts, it wasn’t tough for him to see what was going on in the game. It was clear that One Page Book’s movements and actions were all extremely impressive.

Take One Page Book’s previous attack on Wang Yu as an example. Her first strike was fast and nimble while her second dagger strike was crafty and fierce. If her opponent was any other player, he/she wouldn’t have been able to avoid that strike.

Not only did Wang Yu manage to dodge her attacks, he even managed to fight back to throw her onto the ground. The series of moves executed by Wang Yu was simply shockingly effective.

Evidently, One Page Book was unwilling to accept her loss. She got up instantly and wanted to attack Wang Yu with her dagger once more. At this moment, the Assassin’s body flashed and appeared right behind One Page Book. He struck One Page Book at the back of her head and a dizziness symbol appeared at the top of her head.

"Do not engage in meaningless fights in front of me!" The Assassin glared coldly at One Page Book. He took the dagger to stab One Page Book and in an instant, One Page Book entered a state of confinement.

"Tsk!" One Page Book grunted as she shouted at Wang Yu, "Do you dare to fight me at another location?"

Wang Yu replied, "You wouldn’t win me even if we fight ten more times. Maybe your grandfather will stand a better chance against me."

One Page Book argued, "You! You’re too rude!"

Seniority mattered the most for those who practiced martial arts. Wang Yu immediately lifted himself to be of the same seniority as her grandfather. If One Page Book wasn’t confined, she would have tried to kill Wang Yu at all cost.

Wang Yu chuckled but didn’t explain anything. After all, the difference in both their strengths was too drastic. If this spreads out, others might make fun of him for bullying the young.

Assassin Lyon wouldn’t be bothered about the rivalry or hatred these two had for each other. He glared coldly at Wang Yu too, "Was that the Heart of Darkness?"

"Yes, it is the Heart of Darkness. I’ve heard that you have a tool to seal this item. Could you lend me for a while?" Wang Yu answered.

Assassin Lyon looked at Wang Yu with meaningful glances before asking, "That is a very powerful energy. Since the ban has been lifted, why are you trying to seal it again?"

Choosing Power: With the help of Assassin Lyon, you will be able to absorb the power from the Heart of Darkness. You can obtain the job of an Apostle - Blade of Massacre.

Choosing Justice: Ask Assassin Lyon for the location of the Dusk Roulette. Seal the Heart of Darkness and once the quest is completed, you will receive an additional 1000 merit points for the light faction.

Power or Justice?

Yet another choice to make...

Wang Yu had experienced the dilemmas of making such decisions when he was changing jobs. Therefore, Wang Yu knew that the greater the rewards, the more problematic the quest would be.

The Apostle job was one of the hidden jobs of the dark faction. It was similar to the Hero job of the light faction and was definitely extremely unique. This temptation was undoubtedly unprecedented and a rare opportunity but Wang Yu was very calm.

Firstly, Wang Yu was from the neutral faction. Choosing the Apostle job would definitely result in him joining the dark faction. While Old Man Hermit had no opinions about the neutral faction, he was extremely against the dark faction. It was highly likely that this old man might end up wanting to kill Wang Yu if he chose to accept this quest. Being the nemesis of a god level NPC while only at level 30 was not a sensible move.

Secondly, the job corresponding to the Blade of Massacre was Thief... Wang Yu was a martial artist in real life and was, therefore, more interested in the hidden jobs of Pugilist.

Wang Yu would never consider a job which had such a ’dirty’ name such as Thief. Without any doubts, Wang Yu had a clear answer in his heart where many others might find it tough to make a decision.

Therefore, Wang Yu chose Justice without much hesitation.

"As compared to great power, I want to believe in my own justice!" Wang Yu recited the two sentences prepared by the system.

"What a real pity!" Assassin Lyon’s eyes dimmed slightly before continuing, "Dusk Roulette. The Dusk Roulette had gone missing from a long time ago."
