Cold, eerie, and dark, countless figures remained eerily silent, swaying and intertwining within the theater.
A thought flashed through Su Bai's mind for a moment.
He then settled down and sat down comfortably.
With his strength, clearing out all the monsters in the theater wouldn't be difficult.
But he couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't accidentally kill 'Odys' as well.
Special units are usually unique.
I missed it.
Phoenix's hidden quest was thus completely cut off.
Another reason is that his experience level has already capped at 35, which is more than 10 levels higher than most of the monsters present. Killing them all would not yield any rewards.
Sudden.
Su Bai felt a hand tug at the package in his hand.
With a little effort, he broke free.
But soon.
Monsters began trying to steal it one after another in the darkness.
His expression changed slightly as he tried to put the package into his backpack, but all he received was a cold reply.
[Note: This item is a special quest item and cannot be added to your inventory!]
...
Su Bai finally had a chance to glance at the package's instructions.
[The Bloodstained Package]
【Props】
[Level: Normal]
[Note: This is a special gift given by the living to the deceased. It is extremely attractive to the deceased and cannot be put into the inventory. Accurately delivering it to the recipient will trigger an unknown event. Once opened, it will become invalid.]
...
"It can't be this..."
Su Bai was quite surprised.
A gift from the living!
Players who later performed this type of delivery mission also liked to call it:
Desperate Delivery.
These special gift items sometimes randomly spawn in the city. Su Bai has encountered them a few times, but they were always just the lowest-level white packages.
But it also caused him a lot of trouble back then.
Gifts from the living are categorized into four difficulty levels based on the color of the package:
White package
Gray package,
Red package,
Black package.
After completing the package delivery task, you may receive a reward directly, trigger a hidden mission, or, if you're unlucky, encounter a tough battle.
But the most difficult part.
It's still about the process of sending a package.
This special package will have an extremely strong attraction to the monsters in the city.
As long as you hold it, you will be subjected to a constant barrage of attacks from monsters.
The darker the color of the package.
The more troublesome the monsters you attract, the more difficult they become.
Back then, he almost lost his life after just a few white package delivery missions.
However, the rewards are indeed generous.
At that moment, he was holding a red package.
If Su Bai remembered correctly, since the red package was first opened in the Old City, the number of times there were recorded intelligence reports in the following years was less than two.
Every time a red package quest appears, it causes a violent upheaval in the city!
As for the black package, it only appeared once throughout the entire process.
Su Bai was unaware of the details of that letter delivery.
All that is known is that the players who participated in delivering the message were at least top players in the top 50 of the national server's leaderboard, and even the entrance to the Old City was closed for three whole days as a result.
The result of that letter delivery.
This indirectly led to the final fate of the old city...
"I can make red packages, but I don't have time for that right now."
Su Bai gripped the package tightly and wouldn't let go.
At this moment, thanks to the characteristics of the Goethe Theatre, he did not actively attack these monsters. Even though they were attracted by the red package, they did not attack him, but only kept trying to snatch it.
Until a certain moment.
The stage lights shone brightly once again.
moment.
Su Bai felt a lightness in his hand.
In the darkness, the countless hands that had been pulling at the package vanished without a trace.
There wasn't a single ghostly figure around.
All the guests in the theater returned to their seats, but he could vaguely sense the malicious and covetous glances cast at him from the shadows.
"The package to be delivered to the Weeping Cemetery..."
Su Bai checked the mailing address.
I thought about it.
I put the package back on the seat.
This is also one of the characteristics of the package: it will only be snatched by monsters when the player is holding it, but as long as it is put back in its original place, it will no longer attract the attention of any monsters.
It seems that their true purpose is not simply to be attracted by this special gift.
It was to prevent the player from delivering it to the target location...
Place the package here.
There's no need to worry about it being taken by other players in the short term.
When will it be delivered?
He definitely needs to plan this out carefully.
This package was not only quite troublesome because it was red, but its destination was also the Weeping Cemetery. He could basically consider the worst-case scenario, even if it might alert the extremely troublesome lord monster in the cemetery.
"Odes..."
Su Bai had never heard of such a staff member at the Goethe Theatre.
That makes sense. Both Miss Phoenix and Odis are monsters. Without knowing the details, players' first reaction upon seeing a monster is to attack it directly.
This hidden questline from the previous life likely ended before it even began.
Naturally, they wouldn't leave behind any information.
After a moment's thought.
Su Bai then headed towards the staff lounge, where he was most likely to find relevant clues.
The staff lounge was searched once when they were last here, but thanks to his specific reminder, neither team harmed any monsters.
