Chapter 270 The last task
[Gold Coin Merchant: Show me the picture.]
Lu Youyou had thought that the gold coin merchant cared a lot about the clansmen who had left, but she didn't expect him to reply to her message less than a second after she sent it.
It's important to know that the gold coin merchant has many monster friends and human friends.
He can quickly reply to his own messages among so many friends' messages, which must be because he has set some kind of keyword.
Once triggered, the gold coin merchant will be alerted.
At the same time, Lu Youyou felt even more nervous.
If Jin Suisui is a member of the gold coin merchant's clan, then she must have gained many benefits.
If Jin Suisui isn't one of them, then it will be difficult to increase the favorability of the gold coin merchant.
"Sister, your watch keeps vibrating. Is it a message from the gold coin merchant?"
Lu Youyou snapped out of her thoughts and looked at her watch. The message from the gold coin merchant was still the same one, and the vibration was caused by the group chat mentioning all members.
She let out a breath. What's meant to come and what's not meant to come will come eventually; dragging things out isn't in her nature.
"Sui Sui, can you show me your snake tail?"
Jin Suisui nodded obediently, and with a "pop," her legs transformed into a snake tail, the shimmering golden scales dazzling under the light.
Lu Youyou raised her watch and took three photos in total.
A close-up of the face, a close-up of the tail, and a full-body shot.
She sent all three photos to the gold coin merchant, but received no reply for a long time.
None of the three people on the roof were not nervous; each had their own thoughts.
Suddenly, the watch vibrated.
The Gold Merchant's favorability towards you has increased to 100%.
[You have received a gift from the Gold Merchant—a Gold Exchange Machine. It can be linked to a group or an individual. Please select the group to link to.]
[Gold Coin Exchange Machine: After binding, you can sell the items you don't need anytime, anywhere. Please note that the gold coin merchant's buyback price is not fixed. Please seize the opportunity to sell the items at the highest price.]
Note: When you link a group, you will gain the right to manage the gold coin exchange machine, which allows you to set usage fees, provide timely reminders when members sell valuable items, and more.
"call--"
Lu Youyou let out a long breath. It's stable now!
She linked the gold coin exchange machine to the gang and set a 1% handling fee, so that any gang member could exchange coins and she could also make a profit.
With the new feature added to the gang, the group chat became lively again, and Lu Youyou kept receiving transaction fee reminders.
But she didn't have time to pay attention because the gold coin merchant sent her a message.
[Gold Coin Merchant: What's her name? Why is she so young? She's not my sister, she looks a lot like my sister, she's my sister's daughter!]
[Lu Youyou: Her name is Jin Suisui, she is six years old, and her parents...]
Lu Youyou relayed all the information Jin Suisui had given her to the gold coin merchant, and revealed that Jin Suisui and Xiao Cui were childhood friends.
There's also Xiao Cui's parents' care for Jin Sui Sui; they specially selected the sturdiest and thickest bamboo to build a bamboo house for Jin Sui Sui and provided her with fresh bamboo shoots to strengthen her constitution...
The gold coin merchant's favorability towards Xiao Cui gradually increased until it stopped at 65%.
Lu Youyou's third favorability task is complete.
[Lu Youyou: Congratulations on finding your family, but I don't have your summoning card, so I can't summon you into the dungeon. Therefore, you two can't meet for now.]
[Gold Coin Merchant: I'll send you a phone. Give the phone to Jin Suisui and teach her how to make a video call to me.]
[Lu Youyou: Okay.]
The phone has very simple functions; it only has an app similar to WeChat and nothing else. When you open it, there's only one contact: the Gold Coin Merchant.
Lu Youyou taught Jin Suisui how to make a video call to the gold coin merchant in three seconds, and then Jin Suisui happily made a video call to the gold coin merchant.
Xiao Cui looked at Jin Sui Sui with a smile, happy that her friend had found her family.
Then, his eyes gradually turned red.
Everyone else is trying to be better, but she's trying to kill her family.
In that instant, she suddenly didn't want to be a high-level monster anymore.
She was content to be a lowly monster with her family, even if she couldn't be resurrected after being killed.
However, it's too late.
Dad has already given her the Soul Pill.
The whole family's goal was to elevate her to a higher level of monster status, for the sake of her father and her mother, who had become the Stone King. She also had to keep moving forward.
"Sister, let's drive. We need to find Heming."
"what?"
A buzzing sound.
[Xiao Cui's first task: Lead me to He Ming and successfully obtain the advanced panacea pill from He Ming's medical clinic.]
[Xiao Cui's second task: Lead me to the chosen opponent for the duel and prevent me from winning.]
[Xiao Cui's third task: Help me kill the Bamboo Woman.]
[Do you accept Xiao Cui's mission and pre-accept missions two and three? Yes/No]
Lu Youyou ignored her watch and looked down at Xiao Cui.
“Gu Jingchen is not a fool. He should have collected enough mechanical spiders and enhanced paralysis bullets by now. If he is fast enough, he may have already paralyzed the Bamboo Girl’s ability to move.”
"He will soon find out that I am holding back, and when he gets angry, he will launch random attacks. Bamboo Girl might die, then my mission will fail, and my score will not be high."
"Xiao Cui, if your mission is to kill the Bamboo Maiden and become a superior monster, can we skip the part about finding Crane Cry or other intermediate quests now?"
Xiao Cui's eyelids twitched involuntarily: "No, sister, please help me! I'll die without the high-level panacea!"
"Although my mother won't actually kill me, I have to be injured. Otherwise, even if the adults try to protect me, the malicious monster will find fault with me."
Lu Youyou sighed, her reason and emotions fighting each other.
"Xiao Cui, to be honest, I don't want to take on your mission anymore because I'm not sure if your plan will succeed, and I need to consider my own interests."
“You’re a good boy. If you can, tell me your plan. If the plan can be changed, then we can kill Bamboo Girl in front of Gu Jingchen.”
Xiao Cui bit her lip hard, and blood trickled down her chin.
She didn't know if her mother's plan would succeed, and she didn't want to leave an innocent person here and then give birth to a little monster just like herself.
She choked up and said, "Sister, you've already completed six tasks. Of the remaining four tasks, besides the three I assigned, the last one is to take me to the Monster Tournament."
"The high-grade pills are to ensure I can stay alive, the competition is to verify my strength, killing the Bamboo Maiden is a condition for becoming a high-level monster, and going to the Monster Tournament is to choose a monster profession and gain a new life. None of them can be canceled or modified, sister."
Lu Youyou pondered for a few seconds.
"I can give you the pills, and I can also help you find humans, so can the quest to find Heming be modified? We don't want to waste too much time on the road."
Xiao Cui nodded.
The watch buzzed, and the mission details changed.
[Xiao Cui's first task: Provide me with a high-grade panacea pill.]
[Xiao Cui's second task: Find me a match opponent and help me win.]
[Xiao Cui's third task: Assist me in killing the Stone King - Bamboo Girl.]
[Xiao Cui's fourth task: Take me to the Monster Tournament to choose a monster class.]
[Accept Xiao Cui's tasks and pre-accept tasks two, three, and four? Yes/No]
