Chapter 4 The Task

"What... What are you doing?"

Faced with Irene's sudden intimate behavior, Edward stood still and dared not act rashly.

"You are a good man."

Irene said shyly as she leaned her head closer to Edward's arms.

"Do you lack food?"

"Yes. I will be starving without food."

Edward blinked. He couldn't bear to see a beautiful woman so pitiful.

"Let go of me first. I'll give you some food."

"Really? That's what you said."

Then Irene left Edward's arms and stared at Edward adorably.

Being stared at by Irene, Edward felt embarrassed. He quickly avoided her sight, opened his system, and gave some of the reward food to Irene.

Irene smiled approvingly:

"You're too easy to trust others. You will stand to lose."

"If she is a beauty, I am willing to do that."

After hearing Edward's reply, Irene was elated. She turned around and took out three fire-type enchanted arrows from her system and gave them to Edward.

"In return, here you are. Well, I should go now, we'll meet again soon."

After saying that, Irene made a kiss act to Edward and then left.

Looking at Irene's receding figure, Edward smiled unaware.

'Maybe Irene really resembles my ex-girlfriend,' Edward thought.

When Edward was lost in thought, the system said:

"A new task has begun."

As soon as the voice fell, the system light screen flashed in front of Edward again.

"System task released"

"Task level: Medium stage"

"Task content: Went to Vasili Grassland to get the opal gem"

"Task reward: You can watch the mission status of any friend player and teleport to your friend's side immediately"

Edward was confused about the task reward. After all, he hadn't become friends with any player yet.

But when he came to this world, he had no right to choose. Moreover, he was the one who would fill up the energy bar and become the final winner.

Edward came to the designated resting place, enjoyed the food he got from the first task, and rested after solving his hunger.

After resting for a few days, Edward went to Vasili Grassland to start the second task.

When Edward was walking on the grassland, the grass in the distance suddenly moved.

It was a mole.

Well, Edward smiled, the prey was coming.

Edward opened the control board and used the assassin's invisibility skill and flash skill to rush towards the prey quickly.

When he was about to kill the mole, the mole escaped from Edward's attack at a speed five times faster than Edward.

Seeing that the mole was about to escape from the grassland.

Edward thought of the arrow Irene gave him.

Edward opened the system backpack and took out an arrow.

"Enchanted arrow (fire)"

"Physical damage: 2"

"Flame damage: 4"

Introduction: The lethality of the fire-type arrow with the enchanted effect is two times stronger than that of the ordinary arrow. Moreover, after hitting the target, it will explode, and the explosive effect will be four times stronger than the flame damage.

Edward drew his bow to aim and shot it instantly.

The fire-type arrow ignited a flame in the air at an extremely fast speed and shot towards the mole. With the sound of the explosion, the prey was obtained.

Edward smiled with satisfaction and heard the voice of the system.

"Congratulations! You have successfully plundered the mole's talent, "treasure hunting master"."

"Treasure hunting master" has been enhanced a hundred times, upgrade to "treasure capturing master"."

"Treasure capturing master"

"Level: D"

"Description: After using the treasure capturing master, the target can be accurately captured in 30 seconds."

Looking at this talent, Edward laughed:

"Ha-ha, this is completely tailor-made for me! It will come in handy in a new task."

Sometimes luck came and nothing could stop it.

Edward continued to move forward with satisfaction and soon arrived at the center of the Vasili Grassland.

At a glance, it was covered with thick grass, which could swallow people at any time.

Suddenly, there was a deafening roar in the distance:

"Ahhh!"

A white wolf with a height of fully 32 feet was slowly standing up. The moment it saw Edward, its eyes turned red.

The white wolf bared its fangs and ran towards Edward.

The wolf king was so fast that it only took less than a second to get close to Edward's neck.

Fortunately, Edward used the flash skill in time to escape.

Edward continued to use the invisibility skill. When he was invisible, he immediately opened the system to check the information about the white wolf.

"Species: White wolf king"

"Level: Boss"

"Skill: Fast fatal"

"Level: Level C"

"Skill description: Unlimited fast movement in 30 seconds"

Boss-level creature!

Edward's eyes widened. He had met a big opponent this time.

Edward took out the remaining two enchanted arrows and shot at the white wolf king.

"Bang!"

The sound of two arrows exploding resounded through the sky.

The white wolf king's abdomen was shot by the arrows, and the flow of blood could not be staunched.

Edward thought that the white wolf king had been killed. When he was about to say that Irene's arrow was really helping a lot, the white wolf jumped up and ran towards Edward again.

"Damn it! The white wolf king's hit point is really high!"

At this critical moment, Edward thought of the skill of the "treasure capturing master" he had just plundered.

Edward dodged the attack with the flash skill again and clicked to use the "treasure capturing master" skill.

When the white wolf king rushed forward, the "treasure capturing master" skill was activated and its eyes were taken away in an instant.

"Ahhh!"

With its eyes being gouged out, the white wolf king raised its head and howled in pain, and the cry spread all over the grassland.

The white wolf king fell to the ground in an instant, the earth was shaken, and then it died heavily.

The opal gem was now in Edward's backpack. Edward breathed a sigh of relief. It was too dangerous just now!

The voice of the system sounded again:

"Congratulations on completing this task. You have obtained the friend teleportation reward."

"Congratulations! You have successfully plundered the talent of the white wolf king, "fast fatal"!"

"The "fast fatal" has been enhanced a hundred times, upgrade to "instantly fatal"."

"Instantly fatal"

"Level: A"

"Description: After using instantly fatal, the opponent can be instantly killed in ten seconds"

"At the same time, your assassin attribute and fatal skill are integrated. Now, they are integrated for you."

"Dual attribute assassin"

"Level: Medium stage"

"Attributes: Invisibility medium could be maintained for 60 seconds."

"The medium stage of immune to injury, 0.1 seconds injury-free.

"Other privileges: Upgrade to be unlocked."

At the same time, an energy bar was added to Edward's watch, which meant that it was closer to passing the game.

"Ha-ha, it's so happy!"

Edward was satisfied with everything.

At this time, the world channel was also constantly popping up.

"Do you know that the system will assign team tasks?"

"I teamed up with several players who hold me back, and then I was implicated to fail the task. My energy bar!"

"Who isn't! My teammates are too stupid, but I can't go to their side."

"If I could see the state of my teammates, I could figure out a countermeasure in time and wouldn't fail the task!"

"Guys, remember to keep your eyes open when forming a team!"

When seeing the constant messages on the world channel, it suddenly dawned on Edward.

It turned out that the reward of the second task was to prepare for the team tasks that might be assigned later?

So am I the chosen one?

With this function, I had a great advantage in team tasks!

But come to think of it, I didn't have a friend yet.

"Hello, handsome man. I said we'll meet again soon."

Irene's charming voice sounded again.

Edward turned around and saw Irene, not knowing when she was standing behind him.

"What's the matter with you?"

Edward asked in confusion.

Irene smiled and approached Edward, put her arms around his neck again, and looked at him:

"I want to be your first friend."
