Chapter 441: Mermaid at the Moonlight Altar! Witch's Mission?
"Is this really a maid uniform?"
Naida lifted the hem of her skirt, spun around naturally in front of Su Xuan, and asked shyly.
"Maybe...it shouldn't be, right?" Su Xuan touched the tip of his nose, his eyes somewhat evasive.
This doesn't look like a proper maid costume at all!
"No... isn't it?" Nada's cheeks flushed slightly when she heard it, but after some thought, she smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if it's not, as long as you like it~"
I love it! Su Xuan wanted to tell Nada this, but it seemed a bit frivolous, so he replied, "Remember to only wear it in the guild, and change into a new set of clothes when you go out."
"Okay, I'll remember it." Nada nodded slightly and kept Su Xuan's words in mind.
Just as their attention was focused on Nada, Alice appeared silently beside Su Xuan and exclaimed, "Master! Is this Sister Nada? Wow! Is she wearing a new maid uniform? So beautiful!"
"Alice? When did you wake up!?"
Su Xuan turned his head suddenly and looked at Alice in surprise.
“Hehe~”
Alice didn't answer, but just gave Su Xuan an innocent smile.
She was a witch creation, so she didn't need sleep, she just needed to 'recharge'! Therefore, Alice would often hear beautiful singing from the guild hall in her room.
"Alright, alright!" Su Xuan quickly said to Ivsa and the others, "Everyone get ready, we are about to start a new mission."
"Okay~"
"You guys sit in the guild hall for a while while I sort out the mission overview."
"Okay~"
Su Xuan sat on the sofa and began to sort out the C+ level tasks that had just appeared.
But what puzzled Su Xuan was that there were only two C+ level tasks? [Commissioned Tasks]
Commissioned Mission 1 (C+): Kill the Moonlight Witch's clone Mission Reward: ? ? ? Commissioned Mission 2 (C+): Unlocked after completing Commissioned Mission 1.
Mission Reward: ??? “This mission?”
When Su Xuan saw the description of the task, his expression instantly became solemn.
He couldn't understand why his mission was to kill the Moonlight Witch's clone? Who issued this commission? What was their purpose? They actually tried to kill the Moonlight Witch?
In addition, it is clearly marked on the task that it is a multiplayer task.
In other words, multiple guilds will accept this mission...
Su Xuan's brows were furrowed at this moment. The relationship between the Moonlight Witch and Alice made it impossible for him to take action for this, even if it was the Moonlight Witch's clone.
Also, Edith once said that the Moon God Empire had recently sent down an oracle, and it was not known whether it was related to this matter.
"Master, Master~"
While Su Xuan was lost in thought, Alice excitedly threw herself into his arms and asked, "Sister Nada is so amazing~ She taught me a lot of things~ She is as amazing as Sister Ivsa~ However, they are good at different things~"
“Is… is that so?”
Su Xuan smiled and stretched out his hand, gently ruffling Alice's hair, and continued, "Then Alice should learn a lot from Nada and learn all her skills!"
"Okay!" Alice answered enthusiastically, "And Sister Ivsa's! We need to learn all of them!"
"No, no, no, forget it!"
"Eh? Why? (_)?"
As the two talked, the teleportation array flashed white light.
Lucia stepped lightly on the ripples of light and entered the guild hall.
When she saw Nada, a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Is that... a product of alchemy?" Lucia was confused by Nada's current appearance. Was it an... unknown creature?
At least these are creatures that have never appeared in the magical continent.
But she also noticed that Su Xuan and Ivsa were not too surprised, so she understood a little.
She walked slowly towards Su Xuan and asked, "Which beauty are you going to save today?"
"Today... huh? Where are the beauties?"
Su Xuan was stunned for a second before continuing, "We are going to the Moon God Empire to meet the mission client."
He planned to meet with the person who commissioned the task first to learn more about the task.
"The Moon Goddess Empire?" When Lucia heard that it was a mission related to the Moon Goddess Empire, she rubbed her earlobes with her fingertips in annoyance.
This action caught Su Xuan's attention. Lucia had never made such a move before. It seemed that something was disturbing her emotions.
"What's wrong? Did something happen in the Moon Goddess Empire?" Su Xuan asked Lucia.
"Um."
Lucia did not hide it and answered Su Xuan, "The Moon Goddess Empire usually sends down an oracle from the Moon Goddess every few years to a hundred years, but the content of this oracle is a bit strange."
"What does this mean?" Su Xuan asked.
"I don't know the specific details, but I heard from those old guys that the Moon God Empire is gathering troops." Lucia shook her head. She didn't have much information about the oracle.
"Gather troops? Are you going to start a war?" Su Xuan was even more confused by Lucia's answer.
This is because the general intention of assembling troops is most likely to be war.
Whether it is a civil war or a foreign war, the assembly of military forces is essential.
"Maybe, but the Moon God Empire doesn't have any so-called enemy countries, so it shouldn't be launching aggressive wars against other countries," Lucia speculated.
But the actual content is still unknown and we can only make simple guesses.
"It seems I have to go there in person."
Su Xuan rubbed his eyebrows and turned his gaze to Alice who was learning from Nada.
After a moment of silence, he said to Lucia, "This mission will be kept secret from Alice for now. Let's go to the Moon God Empire first."
"Okay, I understand." Lucia nodded slightly and didn't ask any more questions.
"Let's go."
Su Xuan immediately took Lucia with him and headed to the Moon Goddess Empire.
"Owner?"
Alice noticed Su Xuan and Lucia leaving the guild, and a look of confusion appeared on her pretty face.
The teleportation array flickered with white light, and Su Xuan and Lucia arrived at the Moon Goddess Empire.
But this time no pass is required, you just need to arrive at the location directly.
When he arrived at the destination, Su Xuan found that a group of adventurers had gathered there.
Moreover, the levels of these adventurers are all above level 50 without exception, and one can even see a few adventurers at level 70.
"Is this... inside a palace of the Moon Goddess Empire?" Su Xuan looked around and noticed that this was a magnificent palace.
The Moonlight floor tiles unique to the Moon Goddess Empire were paved under his feet, emitting a blue-silver moonlight. If he remembered correctly, this was a luxury item that only existed in the four priest palaces of the Moon Goddess Empire.
"Look there."
Lucia suddenly reminded Su Xuan.
Su Xuan quickly followed her gaze and looked into the distance.
All I saw was a man in a white robe, holding a blue-silver spear, standing there quietly.
His face was hidden by a half-moon mask, his blue eyes flickered with a faint light as he glanced coldly at all the adventurers present.
"Who is he?" Su Xuan asked Lucia curiously.
The other party is not a priest, but his status seems to be much higher than that of ordinary Moon God Empire soldiers.
"Members of the Moonlight Council." Lucia responded softly.
"Moonlight Council?" When Su Xuan heard this answer, he instantly understood the other party's identity.
Before, the Elf Queen had talked to him about the most powerful legions in the magical continent.
The Moonlight Council is the most powerful army in the Moon God Empire! "Could it be that the Moonlight Council organized this mission?" Su Xuan began to ponder, what exactly was the purpose of the Moonlight Council to kill the Moonlight Witch's clone.
At the same time, he kept his eyes on the member of the Moonlight Council, hoping to gain some useful hope from him.
"Have most of the people arrived yet?"
The member of the Moonlight Council asked the Moon Empire soldier beside him.
"Reporting to Lord Yale, all the adventurer guilds that were notified have gathered." The soldier reported.
This book was recently updated on ##六@@九@@书@@吧!! Update!
"Now that everyone is here, let's get started."
Yale nodded, took a few steps forward, came to the front of the adventurers, and said in a deep voice, "Welcome all adventurers to come from afar and participate in this mission..."
He gave a long speech, the content of which was basically telling the adventurers that this mission was just, an operation to exterminate the witch.
From the perspective of other adventurers, this is naturally normal.
After all, every country in the magical continent hates witches to the core, so they naturally stand on the side of justice.
But Su Xuan knew that the Moonlight Witch was an exception.
She had neither done anything against the laws of nature nor hurt anyone.
"He's a little strange."
Suddenly, Lucia reminded Su Xuan.
"What's strange?" Su Xuan asked. He didn't feel anything unusual, and this might be because he was unfamiliar with the members of the Moonlight Council.
"His power law is a bit strange. He is clearly a member of the Moon God Empire, but for some reason, he possesses power from other systems." Lucia explained.
"The power of other systems? Can you determine the type?" Su Xuan asked.
Lucia shook her head and replied, "No."
Su Xuan's gaze returned to Yale, and his long speech was finally coming to an end.
"Give them the things." Yale gave an order, and the soldiers of the Moon Empire handed a crescent pendant to each adventurer.
"This is?"
All the players and adventurers were extremely confused about the crescent pendant they had obtained, and Su Xuan was no exception.
In fact, this pendant does not contain any information, just a series of question marks.
In response, Yale explained to everyone, "This is a necessary item to go to the Moon Dream. Only by going to the Moon Dream can we find the Moonlight Witch and kill her."
"Dream of the Moon?"
When Su Xuan heard Yale's explanation of this thing, he felt a little confused.
If it was just a simple tool to go to the Moon Dreamland, why hide its information? Just as he was thinking, Yale's voice sounded again, "Everyone, please use this item to go to the Moon Dreamland at nine o'clock tonight."
"No matter which adventurer kills the Moonlight Witch, the Luna Empire will regard you as having completed the mission. Moreover, the guild that successfully kills the Moonlight Witch will receive a special reward from the Moonlight Council!"
"A heart of the moon!"
As soon as Yale finished speaking, the scene became boiling.
"Heart of the Moon? Oh my God! That's a treasure of legendary quality!"
"The Moon God Empire is so generous that they actually give the Heart of the Moon as a mission reward!"
"This Moon Heart will definitely belong to my 'Super Bull King' Guild!"
"Wuhu~Take off!"
“…”
The adventurers talked about it a lot and were surprised that the Moon God Empire gave the Heart of the Moon as a reward.
Although Su Xuan didn't know what the so-called Heart of the Moon was, he could tell from the adventurers' reactions that it was very precious.
Yale gave the adventurers a general description of the situation and then turned and left.
The adventurers were left to discuss on their own how to hunt the Moonlight Witch tonight, but because the witch was too powerful, the adventurers present found it very difficult.
"That's the Moonlight Witch! She's said to be one of the strongest witches in the Witch Church!"
"But what we are dealing with now is just a clone in a dream, and its level should not exceed level 85."
"We have to be careful with that. The higher the level, the greater the difference in combat power!"
"Don't worry, everyone. This time we have more than a dozen C+ guilds, several B-level guilds, and two B+-level guilds! Are you still afraid of the Moonlight Witch's clone?"
"This mission is too special, so everyone should be cautious. How about this? Let's create a group and talk about the layout of this mission."
"That makes sense. It's better for everyone to be careful on this mission."
“…”
The players gathered together to discuss countermeasures.
Su Xuan did not participate because he needed to understand more about the Moon Dream and the Moonlight Witch's clone.
"Lucia, let's go."
"Um."
Su Xuan immediately took Lucia away.
As for how to find out about the Moon Dream and the Moonlight Witch's clone, Edith happened to say that if there was anything, I should look for her, so it must be now.
After Su Xuan left the priest's palace, he immediately contacted Edith.
After a while, I received a reply from Edith.
[Edith: Go to the Moonlight Altar, she will be waiting for you there.]
"Moonlight Altar?" After getting the other party's exact location, Su Xuan immediately led Lucia there.
But when he arrived at his destination, he saw only an altar embedded in the ground. The sky blue altar was as calm as a lake, reflecting the figures of Su Xuan and Lucia.
"Is this the Moonlight Altar? But where are the people?"
Su Xuan looked around in confusion, looking for the contact person Edith had found for him.
But what surprised him was that he had not seen any people from the Moon God Empire since he entered the area around the Moonlight Altar. Was this place... like a forbidden area? Just as he was wondering, suddenly, bubbles appeared on the altar embedded in the ground.
Immediately afterwards, a little head popped out of the water, staring at Su Xuan with blinking eyes.
"Um?"
Su Xuan noticed the other person and immediately focused his attention on the girl with long blue hair hiding in the altar.
Asked, "Edith's friend...is that you?"
"Yeah." After hearing Edith's name, the girl immediately let down her guard and walked out of the altar.
But when Su Xuan saw the girl's lower body, he was stunned.
"Fish...fish tail?"
