"Lowly mortal, don't my patience and quickly make your choice. Do you want to join or reject my offer?" Devil Dragon Marzu squinted her eyes and asked in a low voice.
However, she sounded angry. Clearly, she was impatient and didn't want to wait any longer.
"Erm," Su Jin pondered. He wanted to reject, but he didn't have the guts to do so.
Marzu might kill him with one slap if he rejected. If that was the case, Su Jin could come and clear the [ Devil Dragon's Fury ] dungeon next time, but his [ Eliminate the Demonic Wolves ] quest, which reduced the difficulty of the inheritance quest, would fail.
Su Jin only wanted to stall for more time right now. Marzu of the Devil Dragon Clan might disappear if he staled the time. That was the Novice Village or the territory of the light faction. It didn't come personally. Instead, it was more to a projection of it.
Once it exhausted the energy to project, everything would be easy to deal with.
"Mortal, no one else can have what I, Devil Dragon Marzu, cannot obtain. I will destroy it. Think carefully before you make your choice," Devil Dragon Marzu stretched its head forward. It was ready to slay Su Jin anytime if he rejected.
It would destroy it if it could not obtain it. To Marzu, that was how its world worked.
"F*ck, there is no way out now. Maybe today will be my first death?"
Su Jin looked at the approaching Devil Dragon, and he felt stressed out.
Just as the Devil Dragon was about to touch Su Jin, an explosion sounded. A holy light dispersed half of the darkness and shone on Su Jin's body.
The light and darkness took up half of each.
As the light descended, a group of four-winged angels with holy light descended with it.
A total of twelve four-winged angels surrounded a huge golden holy dragon. They flapped their huge golden wings and slowly landed on the Golden Holy Dragon's head. There was a large green word on it: [ Holy Dragon Marvey ].
The Holy Dragon was one of the leaders of the light faction. He had always been dedicated to maintaining order and was the guardian of the Lionheart Empire!
With Su Jin as the center, the two dragons from different factions began to confront each other.
"Shame of the race, this is not your territory. Go back to your territory!"
The light began to crush the darkness the moment the Holy Dragon appeared. Soon, it occupied more than half of the territory. The Devil Dragon Marzu's figure also became sluggish and kept flickering, as if it would disappear in the next moment.
After all, Marzu was only a projection. It couldn't compare to the arrival of the Holy Dragon's real body, so its power was quickly suppressed.
"If it weren't for my real body, I would never be afraid of you. Trash of the race, you will never reach the realm of immortality."
The Devil Dragon, Marzu, couldn't resist the light from the Holy Dragon and was forced to retreat. Then, its two huge black wings suddenly flapped and flew up, turning to leave.
Before leaving, Marzu turned back to look at Su Jin, "Mortal, I will remember you. You are not the first person to reject me, but your fate will not be different."
After saying that, it turned around and flew directly into the darkness behind him. The darkness seemed to connect to a certain place, and Marzu disappeared.
"Ding!"
"Game alert: Although Marzu has escaped, it will always stare at you in the darkness and be ready to take revenge at any time. You have received a buff: [ Devil Dragon's Gaze ] ."
Su Jin blinked his eyes and was speechless. Marzu did hold a grudge against him. It could leave just like that, but it chose to leave a buff on Su Jin to remind itself of what happened that day.
Su Jin opened the attribute panel and saw a black mark in the shape of a dragon's eye at the top of the skill pane.
[ Devil Dragon's Gaze ](buff)
Time: Unknown.
Level: Level 1
Description: The Devil Dragon Marzu is watching you. Under this state, any dark faction player who kills you will receive a reward from Marzu. Furthermore, because you carry a trace of the devil dragon's aura, any enemy who attacks you will have their attack reduced by 15% due to fear and their speed reduced by 15%.
Note: You can increase your buff's level by slaying dark fraction players. Currently (0/10000)
After reading the introduction, Su Jin let out a sigh of relief. He felt a little weird because the description did not sound like it was a negative buff.
The reduction of attack and movement speed by 15% was even more powerful than the enhancement buff. Few players could increase their buff to this state. It could only be said that Devil Dragon Marzu was indeed a great existence.
As for the players from the dark faction coming to kill him. Su Jin wondered who could slay him since he had such a buff on him.
Many thoughts flashed through Su Jin's mind. Suddenly, the Holy Dragon standing behind him spoke.
"Mortal, you have Devil Dragon's Gaze on you. However, don't worry. I will use the holy light to help you remove this gaze and make it ineffective."
Then, the Holy Dragon looked at Su Jin with its golden eyes, preparing to remove the gaze of the Deevil Dragon Marzu.
"It is okay. The gaze is fine," Su Jin shook his head repeatedly to express his refusal to the offer.
The buff was useful. Su Jin would not let the Holy Dragon take it off.
Su Jin thought for a moment, then said, "Respectful Holy Dragon, as a descendant of the God race, I want to use my strength to defeat it. I am not afraid of the Devil Dragon Marzu, I will protect the entire continent in the future."
Su Jin did not know what kind of personality the Holy Dragon had. So he had to use a bigger goal to stop it. He had to show interest in challenging the Devil Dragon and protecting the continent. These two goals were great excuses.
"Very well, mortal. Compared to your thin God bloodline, your courage makes me admire you."
The Holy Dragon seemed satisfied with Su Jin's excuse, and its gaze became gentle. It said, "It has been a long time since a new member joined our God clan. Mortal, come to the Hall of Lights and find me. I will test you to see if you are qualified to become a new member of the God Clan."
"Ding!"
"Game alert: Your actions have been approved by the Holy Dragon. The Holy Dragon has issued you an Epic Quest: [ God Bloodline, Preface ]. Are you willing to accept it?"
"Game alert: Epic quests are extremely difficult. Failure will affect the Holy Dragon's opinion of you and the attitude of the Gods. Please choose carefully."
"Game alert: Hall of Lights. You can find it in any city of the light faction."
A series of game alerts appeared. It startled Su Jin after he read all of them.
In New World, the rarity of quests was divided into normal, rare, and epic. Other than that, there were also single quests like the hidden quest, temporary quest, special quest, and so on. However, among all the quests, epic quests were the rarest. They were famous for their rich rewards and were difficult to complete.
"I accept!" Su Jin accepted the quest without hesitation.
No matter how difficult it was, he had to accept it first. Not everyone had the chance to encounter epic quests. He would not give up such a great opportunity.
Moreover, judging from the name of the quest, it seemed that it was to change Su Jin into a God, instead of only a rare God bloodline. So, he decided he should not miss that opportunity.
Gods had a special position in the New World, which was also based on luck.
