While waiting for Northfield, a team of three walked past Su Yu. They had already walked far away, but for some reason, they got together, chatted for a few words, then turned back.
The contestans standing in the middle walked straight to Su Yu and said directly: "Are you alone ma? Do you want to form a team together? Our team just accepted a four-person mission, but we are still short of a teammate. If you come, the number is just right."
Su Yu was a little surprised by this sudden invitation. Without hesitation, he directly refused: "I have a teammate, he is accepting a mission."
Coincidentally, after saying this, Northfield appeared in the hall, walking from a distance, and finally stopped beside Su Yu. Thinking of what Su Yu said just now, Northfield's identity was obvious. This team did not have to have Su Yu. After being rejected, since the other party already had a teammate, so he nodded politely and returned to his teammates. The team gradually walked away.
Ignoring this episode, after this person left, Su Yu and Northfield also found a corner with few people, took out the tasks they found, after sharing, they found a problem. Whether it was Su Yu's task or Northfield's task, there was a time limit.
-- Obtain the crystal crown, which was placed in the brightest and darkest place in the city.
-- Solemn reminder, after accepting this task, please leave the city within half an hour, otherwise your identity will be exposed.
This is Northfield's task description.
The time limit below, at first glance, is somewhat similar to Su Yu's, but after careful analysis, you can know that Northfield's task is more difficult.
For the task that Su Yu accepted, the time limit will only start to be calculated after it is successful, while for the task that Northfield accepted, the time calculation has already started from the moment it was accepted. Whether he succeeded or not, he must leave the city, otherwise his identity will be exposed.
In addition, the tasks they accepted were a little different. The former task did not specify how many points could be obtained after completion, but judging from the difficulty of the two tasks, the final reward of Northfield's task should be higher than Su Yu's task.
If not, the task would be difficult without reason.
There was no need to think about which task should be completed first. Obviously, Northfield's task was more urgent. Su Yu said decisively: "Complete your task first."
Only the first sentence was about the task, which was not as detailed as Su Yu's task. The crystal crown was placed in the brightest and darkest place in the city? Bright and dark are two words with opposite meanings, and can even be said to be mutually exclusive. One belongs to light and the other belongs to darkness. So, where can they be gathered at the same time?
Just standing here and thinking will not come up with anything useful. Su Yu and Northfield returned to the streets in the city, prepared to take a turn in the city and look around to see if they can get some useful information.
The time limit of the task was very tight, but Su Yu and Northfield walked naturally, there was no impatience on their faces. This state was the best. Sometimes, the more anxious you are, the less you can concentrate on dealing with things.
Here we have to praise the spatial ability. For others, the time limit is a headache, but for Northfield, it doesn't matter at all. Even if he didn't complete the task, half an hour later, Northfield could teleport out of the city and avoid danger.
Even... even if he didn't avoid it, it wouldn't be a problem if he was discovered by the contestants in this city.
It seems that it's not the time ability that is useful, but the strength of one's own strength.
Of course, the above two will only be done when there is no other choice. If possible, Su Yu still wants to complete the task and get the points of this city.
"Good news! The eighth level of the Ten Thousand Flowers Tower has been cleared, and the ninth level is starting now!!!"
"The number of points in the Ten Thousand Flowers Tower, really let people feel comfortable, so many tens of thousands a!"
"Thanks to attacking the tower, we have already obtained 360 000 points. In addition to the completed tasks, there are more than 30 000 points here and there, almost 400 000. According to my experience, the Interstellar Tournament will definitely be a mess. Just in case, everyone keep working hard, try to store more points before the siege!"
When the news of the successful attack on the tower came out, the expressions of the contestants walking on the roadside were obviously much more excited.
The audience in front of the light screen had mixed emotions and couldn't help but feel pity for them.
[Silly child, you guessed the beginning, but unfortunately you didn't guess the ending a~ Now it's not a question of whether the Interstellar Tournament will be a mess, but the mess has already begun.]
[How happy you are now, how sad you will be when you lose points later. Don't say it, I am soft-hearted and can't bear to see these. I have already started to feel distressed across the screen. Miserable, too miserable.]
[It's hard to say for sure. What if Su Yu they didn't complete the undercover mission in the end ne?]
[Lord Northfield's mission may not be completed, but Su Yu's mission will definitely be successful.]
No matter how much the audience said, it couldn't affect the game.
The contestants were in high spirits and became more motivated: "Let's go, let's complete the mission. Don't ask catching a hundred fish, even if it's a thousand... Well, forget it ba. This mission gives me a headache. Why do we have to catch fish a!" Thinking of the mission, the high spirits dropped sharply.
"Who asked you to take it! And you've implicated us! Don't dawdle, hurry up!" The companion urged.
The contestants on the road gradually got rid of their excitement. When they calmed down, they recalled their own missions and points a! Points are very important if they want to advance! The contestants gathered their minds and continued to devote themselves to the mission to complete what was just interrupted.
Su Yu and Northfield were among the contestants. No one paid attention to them because of their changed appearance. Therefore, they were surprisingly harmonious, there was no disobedience.
Catch a hundred fish? These tasks to get city points are really strange.
There is even reason to suspect that this was done intentionally by the Interstellar Tournament officials to tease the contestants.
Su Yu thought casually, his eyes swept around aimlessly, time passed slowly until the last ten minutes, when his eyes finally stopped on a building. Compared with other buildings, the one that Su Yu paid attention to actually had no difference in appearance, but it had a feature, that is, it was taller than the surrounding buildings.
The key point of the hint was the coexistence of brilliance and darkness. Su Yu couldn't think of where it would be, so he simply took it apart to look, ignoring the latter first and only focusing on the former. If the word brilliance can be used to describe it, it should be a dazzling existence.
In this case, why not go up to see if there is anything conspicuous around ne?
With Northfield around, climbing was easy. He tore a space crack at will, and the two of them passed through it. In the next moment, they arrived at the top of the building selected by Su Yu. Standing on the high ground, they could see the surrounding ground scene clearly.
In order to avoid the contestants below noticing them, Su Yu asked the two black water ghost butterflies to temporarily expand the range of the illusion and cover his and Northfield's figures.
"Northfield." Su Yu asked seriously: "Where do you think is more conspicuous below ne?"
Following Su Yu's question, Northfield's eyes swept across the ground, then he raised his eyes: "Our answer is the same."
Before asking him, Su Yu's eyes had already stopped at one place.
It was a river, a very ordinary river, but under the light, it was sparkling.
Excellent eyesight even allowed Su Yu to see the scene by the river. There were a few familiar figures that made him feel familiar. They were the contestants he met on the street just now, saying that they were going to catch fish.
Everything around was very ordinary, not to mention any conspicuous existence. The only thing that fits the word 'bright' is the river. If you think about it carefully, the word 'dark' can also fit the river. Su Yu is not sure of the answer in his heart, but the time for the mission is getting shorter and shorter. There is no other way, so he just gambles.
Northfield opened the space crack, and the two passed through and came to the river.
"It should be at the bottom of the river." Northfield stepped forward.
"Wait, no need." Su Yu thought he was going to dive, and reached out to hold him.
On the white wrist, there were two 'bracelets' in white and green respectively. The white one was a moon limb snake bug, and the green one was the iron blood vine. Su Yu untied the latter and put it into the river.
The green vine floated on the water for a while, and finally sank to the bottom of the river.
No longer the well-behaved one in front of Su Yu, the terrifying side of the iron blood vine was revealed without any cover. The slender vine stretched its body, twisted and split, and swam under the water like a snake.
In a short while, an irregular green vine net has been formed, and this net is still extending to the surroundings, expanding his territory.
Su Yu and Northfield waited for news from the Iron Blood Vine by the river, calculating the remaining time of the task in their minds. If this task cannot be successful, then Northfield can only teleport away from here to avoid alerting the enemy and letting contestant in this city notice the existence of the 'undercover'.
After all, if Northfield's task failed, Su Yu's task can still continue.
"You also accepted the task of catching fish?" The other contestants who were fishing came over and kindly reminded: "It's best to go to the store in the city to find a fishing net. This fish is not easy to catch."
The Iron Blood Vine at the bottom of the river was looking for the crystal crown while also trying to make Su Yu happy. While looking for the crown, a branch caught a fish with colorful scales, rolled it out of the water, and handed it to Su Yu as a treasure.
The contestant who had just said 'fish is not easy to catch' was silent: "Sorry, I disturbed you, goodbye."
'Concentrate on finding the crystal crown.' Su Yu.
The Iron Blood Vine retracted aggrievedly.
"Wait another three minutes. If you can't find it, teleport out of the city first."
Northfield responded, his mental power patrolling the bottom of the water.
Three minutes passed quickly, at this critical moment, the Iron Blood Vine and Northfield noticed something at the same time. A very short and crystal-clear tree, which looked particularly clear in the water. Although it had nothing to do with the crown, it met the point of 'crystal'.
The Iron Blood Vine at the bottom of the water rushed over, ready to drag this thing back, whether it was or not, to present it to Su Yu first.
However, it was a step slower, the underwater space was distorted, and the small tree was sucked into it. The next second, the small tree appeared on the shore.
