21. Encountering snowflakes by chance

The difficulty in triggering this hidden mission is that you must have repeated conversations with the NPC grandfather. The conversation lasts for up to 2 hours and the conversation content is repeated 4 times before you can receive this hidden mission.

How can ordinary players have such a leisurely mood?

The players can only chat with the NPC grandpa for five minutes at most, and then leave without triggering the task.

Even those who were more patient, after half an hour of conversation, found that the NPC grandfather's words were repeated, they all retreated.

Therefore, no one had triggered this hidden mission in Su Yu's previous life. It was not until the Blue Star humanity was about to be destroyed that a player who had lost hope accidentally discovered this hidden mission.

But it was too late, by then the last few waves of the Skrulls' offensive had arrived.

...

Su Yu patiently chatted with the old man for two full hours.

At the end of the fourth conversation, the NPC grandpa's leisurely state suddenly changed.

He sat up from the bench and looked eastward worriedly.

"Here we come!" Su Yu cheered up, but he didn't speak.

The old man stood up and looked worriedly at the entrance of the alley for a while, then looked at Su Yu:

"Oh! It's so late, why hasn't my daughter Tina come here yet? Young man, can you go to the Chenge grocery store in the northeast of the village to look for her? She may have encountered some trouble there."

"Ding! The excellent hidden mission [Tina's Resistance (1/20)] has been triggered. Do you accept it?"

"accept!"

"Task description: Uncle John entrusts you to go to Chenge Grocery Store to find traces of his daughter Tina."

"Task reward: experience value x100, power coin x2."

After accepting the task, Su Yu stood up and waved to the NPC grandfather: "Uncle John, I'll go and wait for my good news!"

"May the gods be watching over you, young man." Uncle John waved goodbye to Su Yu.

...

Five minutes later, Su Yu arrived at the door of Chenge Grocery Store.

Chenge Grocery Store is located in a remote alley in the residential area to the east of the village, with very few players coming and going.

Su Yu was about to open the door and walk in, when a female player walked out of the grocery store.

"Excuse me... Huh? Is it you? Nemesis!" When the female player saw Su Yu, her eyes suddenly lit up.

But as if she thought of something, the female player's eyes immediately turned resentful.

"Hello! Xue Hua Luo." Su Yu waved to greet her.

This female player was Xue Hualuo, and Su Yu had met her twice.

But noticing Xue Hualuo's "resentful" eyes, Su Yu felt a little baffled.

He was very familiar with this resentful look.

Su Yu had rejected many girls. After being rejected, those girls would look at him with resentful eyes.

Xue Hua Luo also had this resentful look in her eyes.

Su Yu secretly muttered in his heart:

"I haven't had any interaction with her, have I? Why is she looking at me like this?"

So Su Yu asked a little unnaturally: "Um... where is your father?"

"My dad is offline. He is old and not suitable for long-term gaming."

"Then why are you looking at me like that?"

"Nemesis, you stole my hidden mission [Tears of Goddess Savi]." Xue Hualuo said quietly.

[Tears of the Goddess Savi] After Xuehualuo receives the first ring, unless she fails the mission, no one else will be able to receive the mission.

Xue Hualuo also saw that Su Yu was "jumping in line" in the tenth round of the mission.

But she didn't blame her nemesis. She had nothing to say if she was not as good as others and was robbed of the task, but she always felt a little uncomfortable.

"Oh! So it's you!" Su Yu suddenly said.

It turns out that in the previous life, it was Xue Hualuo who completed the hidden mission.

Later, Xue Hua Luo failed to complete the follow-up task [Annie's Revenge] and was banned from "Evolution".

No wonder Su Yu had never heard of the name "Xue Hua Luo".

After all, Xuehualuo looks good and is one of the first batch of players, so he should be famous no matter what.

…

"What do you mean 'it's me'?" Xue Hualuo was confused. She didn't understand what Su Yu was talking about.

"It's nothing." Su Yu changed the subject: "Since I stole your hidden mission, how about I give you a piece of equipment as compensation?"

Su Yu took out the [Slippery Scale Breastplate] from his backpack and handed it to Xue Hualuo, while also showing her the attributes panel of the chest armor.

[Slippery Scale Breastplate lv5 (Excellent)]

Type: leather armor

Defense +6

Agility +3

Although Su Yu avoided Xue Hualuo's fate of being banned, objectively speaking, Su Yu also robbed her of a path to becoming a god (the main mission).

So Su Yu decided to give the [Slippery Scale Breastplate] to Xue Hualuo as compensation. After all, this thing wouldn't fetch much money even if it was thrown at the goods station.

Xue Hualuo was surprised when she saw the attributes of [Slippery Scale Breastplate].

This is actually a level 5 green quality breastplate!

The [Dark Iron Boots (Excellent) lv3] that Nemesis put on the shelves in the warehouse is now bidding for 50 Psychic Coins. Why doesn't the [Slippery Scale Breastplate] cost 100 Psychic Coins? The black market price of psychic coins is now 1:20, which is nearly 2,000 flower coins in real currency!

"No! This is too valuable, I can't have it!" Xue Hualuo waved her hand hurriedly and took two steps back.

"Take it."

"I told you I couldn't do it... How about this, nemesis, let's make a friend, and just keep an eye on me if there are any good tasks in the future!"

Xue Hualuo said while sending a friend application to Su Yu.

The second half of Xue Hualuo's words were completely polite. She just wanted to find a place to step down. She didn't expect her nemesis to provide her with any tasks.

Su Yu also knew this.

"Okay then, I'll contact you if I have any suitable tasks in the future."

Su Yu accepted Xue Hualuo's friend application.

"That's it, goodbye! Great master!" Xue Hualuo waved his hand and looked for Shuyuan www. zhaｏshuyuan.com turned around and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute! I have something to ask you." Su Yu suddenly thought of something and stopped her.

"What's the matter?" Xue Hualuo turned around.

"That's it." Su Yu explained: "When you were in the grocery store, did you see a shopkeeper named 'Tina'?"

"Tina..." Xue Hualuo tapped her chin with her index finger: "I came here from Baron Wilson's quest line. If I remember correctly, Tina should be at the gate of Baron Wilson's manor, where I am. Met her."

"Baron Wilson...Thank you very much! This information is very useful to me!" Su Yu thanked him.

"You're welcome." Xue Hualuo smiled, turned around and ran away.

...

After separating from Xue Hualuo, Su Yu began to officially conquer the hidden mission [Tina's Resistance].

[Tina's Resistance] The first 5 links are mainly decryption tasks.

Tina is not in the grocery store, but the grocery store is full of various decryption elements, making the task a daunting one.

Many quest clues are extremely misleading.

For example, "Tina has taken a liking to a small skirt and is going to a clothing store to try it on."

Another example is "Tina and the warrior supervisor Quinn made an appointment to do a talent test at the warrior guild."

Or “Tina is tracking a puppy that has been separated from its family.”

All kinds of wrong information always want to lead Su Yu into the ditch.

Fortunately, Su Yu learned accurate information from Xue Hualuo and easily eliminated the erroneous information and completed the decryption task.

After completing the 5th ring decryption mission, Su Yu came to the door of Baron Wilson's manor and met the protagonist of the mission - Tina.
