Luminous Stone City, Mercenary Tavern.


    It was the second night since Lis had left the Mercenary Tavern. The Demon Crystal Lamps on the walls were already lit, the tavern was bustling with noise as numerous mercenaries who had withdrawn from the battlefield with pouches full of Gold Coins spentvishly, venting the extreme emotions repressed on the battlefield.

    However, at one corner of the tavern, a group of oddly dressed mercenaries sat in quiet discussion.


    "The First Ring Task has already filled up with 500 people, so why hasn’t the Second Circle Task unlocked yet?"


    A yer wearing colorful trousers said at the round table.


    Clearly, the performance artists gathered here were all "Divine Revtion" game yers, and the native mercenaries kept their distance.


    "What’s the rush?"


    @@novelbin@@


    Radish said nonchntly, casually tossing a dried fruit into his mouth.


    As Boditch Kingdom was a kingdom thriving in maritime trade, this special snack from the southern kingdoms was very popr. Evenmoners could often afford to treat themselves, unlike fresh fruits that were only enjoyed by Nobles.


    Possibly due to the existence of Extraordinary Powers, even simr fruits in the Gaia World tasted much better than those on Blue Star.


    This indulgence in culinary delights inevitably tempted the frugal gamers to spend their money.


    "Aren’t you worried there’s a problem with the task? Otherwise, what are we all gathered here for?"


    Another yer said with augh; they were all yers who had taken the [Star Fire] Gold-level Series Task from Radish.


    The prerequisite of having 500 participants had been met earlier in the day, yet the task panel showed no changes, and the number had since exceeded 2000 yers.


    This was partly due to the allure of a Gold-level Task, attracting not only the yers of Luminous Stone City but many from surrounding regions as well.


    Nheless, that was probably the maximum number; yers from farther away wouldn’t be able to reach Luminous Stone City within a day or two.


    The yers sitting around Radish were either elite gamers or representatives sent by nearby yer Guilds, gathered to discuss the Gold-level Tasks.


    But now they were stuck, only knowing from Radish that the Second Ring Task should be rted to the Boditch Kingdom Army, but the specific requirements remained unclear due to the task still being locked.


    "If you ask me, who should I ask?"


    Radish spread his hands, speaking with a hint of helplessness:


    "After all, it’s not like I personally tell you the tasks; it’s all disyed on the system panel. Surely it can’t be me fooling you guys!"


    Radish had said all he needed to say but kept hidden the information about the [Gold-level Series Task Third Ring: The Downfall of the Boditch Royal Family].


    This was a mission exclusive to the three of them. They had privately agreed not to disclose it untilpletion, to avoid interference from other yers.


    The fresh excitement and thrill of uncovering a Hidden plot energized the trio.


    "I don’t have the ability to control your game panel."


    The surrounding yers nodded in agreement. Although they loved the thrill of something new, they were willing to follow the requirements of a Gold-level Task.


    Moreover, the task seemed exhrating, as it potentially involved a direct attack on the Boditch Kingdom Army.


    If true, this would be the firstrge-scale action against native forces by yers since the gameunched, and the very thought was invigorating.


    "Since the Second Ring Task hasn’t unlocked, let’s leave it at that for now. Everyone can do some preparation in the meantime."


    Radish stood up, having organized today’s gathering with the intention of coborating on the Second Ring Task after it unlocked. Unfortunately, now it was somewhat disappointing.


    The other yers didn’t mind. Radish had shared with them the Gold Level Task; many owed him favors and naturally epted his role as spokesperson.


    After all, Radish and his friends were individual yers; it would be problematic if a yer Guild took charge as it could lead to dissatisfaction.


    Just as everyone was about to disperse, they unanimously heard the system notification sound.


    Ding~


    The group paused, simultaneously pulling up their system panels.


    In front of them, a new task information refreshed.
