"I wonder what I can help you with, Prefect. I will do my best," Lufeng said sincerely.
After a long pause, Cao Yanhui seemed to have made up his mind: "Lufeng, Young Hero, please convey a message to General Yang Wenguang. Tell him that I have discovered a place in Dunhuang where the Thousand Buddha Caves are located. This was ordered to be built by the Wei Emperor, and there are some exquisite murals and sculptures. I plan to place my collection there and seal it away for future generations to uncover."
"I will definitely deliver the message!" Lufeng promised, taking on the task of relaying this message—[Annihilation].
After bidding farewell to Cao Yanhui, Lufeng felt an immense weight in his heart as he continued his mission with thoughts of visiting the graves.
According to the mission briefing, Lufeng quickly made an effective analysis: "Cao Yanhui is taking a desperate gamble by asking us to relay a message to Yang Wenguang, while Zhu Wangli also wants us to bring the head of Li Gui Zhong to Yang Wenguang. Since Dunhuang is only a few miles from Yumen Pass, we should first eliminate Li Chonggui at Yumen Pass before seeking out Yang Wenguang, which will effectively shorten our travel time."
After hearing Lufeng's analysis, classmate Wang Xiaojing couldn't help but nod secretly, already approving of Lufeng as the team leader. The reason they were able to take on so many tasks simultaneously was due to the rewards exchanged with NPC 'Bullshit', while others could only take on one task at a time.
Qiu Han also admired Lufeng: "The boss is truly impressive! To find a breakthrough among so many NPCs means we can definitely catch up or even surpass that so-called Royal Beauty. Taking on multiple tasks at once greatly saves our travel time."
"I'm impressed, really impressed. Here I am as an Internal Test member, and I got frustrated because of the repetitive nature of this task, making me run back and forth several times. How did I not think of doing multiple tasks at once? This tactic of yours is brilliant," Qin Shou admitted wholeheartedly.
Hearing his roommates' praise, Lufeng did not feel proud and dismissively said, "Do you think others are fools? If we can think of it, then surely Royal Beauty, being so clever, can too. Back when we were at Wuliang Mountain, she was wearing high-end fashion."
"You've seen Royal Beauty? High-end fashion? Is it the same as what Xiaojing wears? What does that imply?" Murong Xiaoxiao fired off several questions in succession.
Recalling that moment when he saw Royal Beauty at Wuliang Mountain, her glance was captivating, rendering all other beauties pale in comparison. Her mesmerizing gaze was profoundly deep, leaving a lasting impression on Lufeng, as if it had just happened. However, he did not realize that her glance was noting his appearance for future reference; that was another story altogether.
Seeing the nostalgic expression on Lufeng's face, Murong Xiaoxiao felt a twinge of jealousy: "Hey, you still haven't answered my question! I'm ignoring you now!"
Lufeng was suddenly pulled back to reality, feeling a bit awkward, and said with a smile, "Well, I thought Xiaojing would volunteer."
Upon hearing this ambiguous tone, Wang Xiaojing shot a murderous glance at Lufeng, instantly making him change his words: "It's like this, the high-end outfits on Xiaojing are given to all Free Mode players, so what I meant to say is that Royal Beauty must also be a Free Mode player. However, a player who can't even release skills can be the first to break level ten; don't you think she's impressive?"
When Murong Xiaoxiao learned that all Free Mode players received high-end outfits, she curiously looked at the low-level outfit of Lufeng, feeling deeply touched: Lufeng still cares about me!
"Pfft, how could a girl be that strong? Even if she can't release skills, she can let others fight for her while she reaps the benefits. Rich people play like this; leveling up is still easy for them," Qin Shou said dismissively.
Lufeng smiled calmly: "You're right in some ways, but what I've seen is that Royal Beauty indeed levels up on her own, not just sitting back and enjoying."
"What? She's that amazing?" Gao Chao exclaimed in surprise.
Watching these men chat nonsense and make wild guesses, Wang Xiaojing finally exploded: "Can you be any more boring? Seeing is believing! No, even if you see it with your own eyes, it might not be true. Let's analyze how to deal with Li Chonggui, since he's the first boss we have to face."
As everyone walked and chatted, it created a sense of closeness. Before long, they spotted the patrol commander of the Summer Kingdom's garrison—Li Chonggui—up ahead.
Seeing Wang Xiaojing's displeased expression, Lufeng didn't want to create trouble and quickly made an effective attack analysis regarding Li Chonggui: "Right now, no one has red potions, and Xiaoxiao, our half-baked healer, can't even learn healing skills yet. We can only reduce our damage through perfect cooperation."
"Stop with the nonsense and get to the point. None of us are Newbies, do you really need to explain everything in detail?" Wang Xiaojing said impatiently.
With Wang Xiaojing interrupting multiple times, Lufeng felt a bit annoyed and said angrily: "Are you the team leader or am I? The leader speaks; others should raise their hands if they want to speak. Don't you know that Xiaoxiao is a newbie?"
"I forgot! Go ahead; I promise not to interrupt again," Wang Xiaojing said pitifully.
Xiaojing can recognize mistakes and correct them, and Lufeng should not take advantage of that: "Alright, knowing one’s mistakes and correcting them is a virtue. Everyone has seen Li Chonggui and the Double Golden Hammer, right?"
"I saw it, I saw it! It reminds me of Qin Shubao, but unfortunately, he wore 'broken shoes' and ended up with a green hat," Gao Chao said with a look of regret, shaking his head.
Lufeng was getting a bit frantic: "Come on, let's get back on track. To put it simply, the Double Golden Hammer has high attack power and the armor has high defense. This shows that it's a boss with high attack and high defense. Gao Chao (Ming Jiao) and Qin Shou (Shaolin) will attack from the front. Release all your level 1 skills, Qiu Han (Tianshan), try to avoid direct confrontation and go around to hit him from behind. Go quickly!"
After hearing Lufeng's plan, Gao Chao looked at Lufeng and the two women: "So what are you three going to do?"
"Of course we three will watch you fight and give you some pointers. Otherwise, do you expect me and Xiaojing, who can't even release skills, to tank the boss?" Lufeng said confidently.
Seeing Lufeng looking at Murong Xiaoxiao, he shook his head again: "Emei has low attack and low defense; fighting a boss is just asking for death. What are you thinking? Add an internal and external defense state and go take down Li Gui Zhong."
Lufeng was always right, leaving Gao Chao and the others with no retort. They could only add the internal and external defense state skill, which had an effective duration of 30 minutes and increased their internal and external defense by 190 points.
Li Chonggui noticed someone approaching him and entered a state of alertness, not initiating an attack first to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Gao Chao and Qin Shou saw this as well; it suited them just fine as it reduced some trouble. As close combat professions, they naturally engaged in melee combat, slowly closing in on Li Chonggui...
(If you think this is good, please support it. Also, I will make some changes to the original setting; the Eight Major Sects will be restored to the Top Ten Sects, bringing back everyone's favorites Heavenly Dragon and Murong. If anyone has better opinions or suggestions, please leave a comment; Xiao Sheng will consider them accordingly. Thank you all for your support!)
