Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A moment later, Manicco put down the letter, his expression was gloomy.
He then took a deep breath to calm himself down. After feeling slightly more relaxed, he looked at Li Yi and slowly said, “Heavy Armored Dragon Knight, may I trouble you to aid me in a mission?”
Li Yi nodded and said, “No problem, Commander, please carry on.”
Of course, the mission to open the dungeon could not be completed with just a letter. There must be some other leading events that would lead to it.
According to Li Yi’s memories from his previous life, it was said that the person who accepted the mission seemed to have been quite busy for a long time. Of course, the rewards reaped were definitely worth it
Seeing that Li Yi agreed, Manicco’s ugly expression eased a little. He then said solemnly, “I want to invite you to bring my personal letter into the Forest of Elk, to give to the general in the barracks, Sir Myron.”
Hearing that, Li Yi was stunned. If he remembered correctly, the Forest of elk was the border between the Ghana Empire and the Doma Empire.
“What’s happening? Could there be an issue between the countries?”
Li Yi was puzzled, but the commander’s expression did not change as he replied, “Mm, I shall leave it to you to send the message.”
[System Notification: Ebner’s letter — first round, has been completed.]
[System Notification: Ebner’s letter — second round, has been activated to Mannico’s letter.]
Mannico nodded and sat on the stool behind him. He pushed the stack of documents on the table to the side. He found a pen, paper, and a seal and began to quickly write a statement.
Li Yi silently stood to the side and waited for Manicco to write the letter. Half a minute later, Manicco put down the pen in his hand, took the seal, and stamped it. He then folded the letter and put it into Ebner’s envelope.
“Thank you for your service, Heavy Armored Dragon Knight.”
Manicco stood up and handed the letter to Li Yi. Li Yi nodded. After a simple exchange of courtesy, Li Yi turned around and left, heading to the Emperor City’s teleportation gate.
…
The Forest of Elk.
In the dense forest, the sound of cicadas was incessant. Under the blazing sun, birds and beasts were actively making noise. They looked full of vitality.
At this moment, in this forest, a man pulled the horse’s rein, and the white horse under him stopped obediently.
Li Yi jumped off the white horse.
“You can go back. The rest of the journey won’t be easy for you.”
Li Yi gently caressed the horse’s body and said softly.
The forest in the front was very densely packed. If he continued to move forward with the white horse, it would not be convenient and he would just end up wasting his time.
The white horse was very intelligent. It gently nudged Li Yi, turned around, swished its tail, and galloped away.
This white horse was the one that Li Yi had seen when he first arrived at Emperor City, which was the closest to the border. A local high-ranking official had come up to him and had a warm exchange with him. He had learned that Li Yi was going to deliver an important letter. Therefore the official gave him a horse for his safe travels.
This white horse had really reduced his travel time by a lot.
Li Yi could not help but sigh. There were many benefits to having a status.
Even when he had a red name he could still freely enter and exit. He could even obtain various kinds of support from NPCs.
If it were any other red-name players, they would be directly detained by the knights or guards as soon as they left the teleportation gate.
Li Yi opened the map and followed the signs to the destination.
…
After walking for a long time, many dense thickets appeared in front of Li Yi. From behind the thickets came the sound of vigorous training.
Li Yi quickened his pace and passed through the thickets. Then, he saw a bright light and a tent not too far away come into his sight.
Near the tent, there were quite a number of soldiers who were shirtless and brandishing large swords in their hands.
Besides that, their feet were thick and had heavy white armor. Thick and heavy masculinity — as well as a faintly discernible killing intent — overflowed from their bodies.
“Honorable knights…”
Li Yi narrowed his eyes and revealed their identities.
In the memories of his previous life, when the War of the Gods broke out, the border knights went to the front line with many other players. They guarded the border all year round and had rich combat experience. Their levels were quite high, and they had become an indispensable combat strength for humans during the War of the Gods.
The military officer who led the training noticed Li Yi’s figure and turned pale with fright. He then hurriedly walked in front of Li Yi. The officer bowed slightly and said respectfully, “Respected Heavy Armored Dragon Knight, it is a great honor to meet you.”
When the officer said this, his eyes were gleaming with excitement.
In the Ghana Empire, there were only two Heavy Armored Dragon Knights. One was an unknown divine person who none had encountered. The other was Li Yi.
To every citizen of the Ghana Empire, it is a great fortune to be able to meet a Heavy Armored Dragon Knight.
Li Yi said politely, “It’s my honor to meet you all well, honorable knight. May I know where Sir Myron Is? The Commander entrusted me to bring him an urgent confidential letter.”
Hearing this, the officer’s expression instantly became serious.
“I understand your circumstances. Heavy Armored Dragon Knight, please follow me. I’ll bring you to Sir Myron immediately!”
“Thank you for your service.”
Li Yi replied.
The officer walked in front of him and quickly led the way. Half a minute later, the officer brought Li Yi to a tent in the middle.
“It’s here. Heavy Armored Dragon Knight, please wait a moment. I’ll go in and report your presence first.”
The officer bowed respectfully. Li Yi nodded in response. Then, the officer walked into the tent. Soon, some sounds came from inside. A few seconds later, the officer walked out and signaled Li Yi to come in.
Li Yi walked into the tent and could not help but start observing the surroundings. The decoration inside the tent was very simple, with only a large table placed in the middle of the tent.
A man was sitting in front of the large table, with a thick stack of documents covering half of his face, and behind him was the officer that led Li Yi here.
When the man saw Li Yi, he immediately stood up to welcome him.
“Oh dear, Heavy Armored Dragon Knight, sorry for not welcoming you earlier.”
A brilliant smile hung on Myron’s face. He extended his hand in excitement, wanting to shake Li Yi’s hand.
“Sir Myron, that is much too polite of you.”
Out of courtesy, Li Yi extended his hand and shook Myron’s hand tightly. He released his hand, and a letter appeared in Li Yi’s hand.
“Sir Myron, this is an urgent confidential letter that the Knight Commander, Manicco, entrusted me to pass to you.”
Li Yi handed the letter to Myron. Myron took it and invited Li Yi to sit with him.
Then, Myron waved to the officer and motioned him to go out. He opened the letter in front of Li Yi and lowered his head to read it.
A minute later, Myron looked up with a grim look.
Seeing this, Li Yi asked, “Sir Myron, What’s wrong? You look very troubled. Is there anything I can help you with?”
Hearing this, Myron gave a bitter smile and said, “Commander Mannico’s letter said that he needs a set of wind wolf leg bones. But I can’t leave my post right now. I can’t bring people to look for the Windfall Wolf King.”
Saying this, Myron looked at the documents on the table with a headache.
Noticing the situation, Li Yi suggested, “Sir Myron, tell me the approximate location of this beast. I’ll go there for you.”
[System Notification: Ebner’s letter has completed the second round. The third round has been opened. The crusade against the Windfall Wolf King has been unlocked!]
Myron’s eyes lit up. After thinking for a moment, he nodded heavily.
“If that’s the case, then I’ll have to trouble you to wait here for a moment.”
After saying that, Myron walked directly to the table, found a map, sat down, picked up a pen, and began to look deep in thought.
Li Yi did not disturb him, and only glanced at a document on the table.
[There seem to be spies of the Doma Kingdom on the east side of Elk’s Forest.]
Li Yi could not help but raise his eyebrows. He looked at Myron, who was drawing circles on the map, and asked, “Sir Myron, is the Doma Kingdom about to make a move?”
Myron was stunned. He understood that Li Yi had seen the document, and he answered without raising his head, “I don’t think so. It’s common for countries to send spies in.
“If you don’t mind the trouble, do you want to take a look? That place might be very close to where the Windfall Wolf King appears.”
As he spoke, Myron drew a circle on the map and stood up to pass it to Li Yi.
[System Notification: Sudden mission triggered.]
The system’s voice sounded, and Li Yi was slightly stunned.
Sudden mission?
If Li Yi remembered correctly, there were special missions within Divine Revelation. The special part was that you never knew what you would trigger.
Li Yi took the map and said, “Well, just in case, I’ll go over and take a look.”
Although he did not know what the mission would trigger, it was definitely a good idea to accept the mission first. After all, there were that many missions in this game.
[System Notification: You have successfully accepted a sudden mission. Faction Mission Opening — Patrol!]
“Thank you so much for your service.”
Myron said sincerely.
“It’s no trouble at all.”
Li Yi waved his hand and left.
Myron knew that the mission was important, so he did not hold Li Yi back any more than he should.
Li Yi turned around and walked out of the tent.. After comparing the map in his hand with the system map, he walked to the right.
