Chapter 46 The Unexpected Person Below the Cliff
The guild's upgrade depended on achievement points.
When the achievement points reached the maximum, the guild automatically upgraded.
However, guild achievement points were very rare. Only when the guild made outstanding contributions could it earn achievement points.
For example, if a guild member awakened a talent or obtained a hidden profession, or if they were the first to clear a game dungeon or kill a boss, they could earn achievement points.
In the later stages, powerful guilds could receive many rewards.
At this moment, Alan noticed the message from Walter.
It started with concern and worry, then asked if he needed help.
In his previous life, Walter died too early, so Alan didn't know him well.
However, the fact that he still cared for him despite Alan's continuous level drops showed that he was quite loyal.
Suddenly, a voice call came through.
It wasn't from Walter but another friend of Alan's.
"Ice King, our captain wants to ask if your guild can be transferred to us. We're willing to offer a billion dollars."
Alan raised an eyebrow; they were really generous.
A billion dollars!
And it was Ernest. Under normal circumstances, he might have agreed.
But now, he wouldn't agree.
He wanted to be in control.
Being strong alone was not enough.
He needed a group of strong and capable allies and conditions to attract other experts.
A guild was a crucial element.
If Alan could achieve it, the guild could increase damage, critical hits, experience points, movement speed, attack speed, etc., by one hundred percent!
At that time, many experts would be willing to join his guild.
"Sorry, I don't plan to transfer the guild."
"The price is negotiable," Ernest said urgently.
"It's not about the price..."
At this point, Alan paused.
He continued, "I don't need money. If you have special equipment, I might consider it."
Ernest was silent. "Wait, let me check."
Special equipment was very important.
The Purification Necklace was special equipment.
Alan was able to defeat Daniel and his team in the newbie village; the Purification Necklace played the biggest role.
"Ice King, we don't have special equipment right now. Can we discuss the price again?"
"No." Alan refused decisively.
The faster the guild was established, the faster it could level up.
His own level could fall behind as long as his attributes were high.
But the guild level couldn't fall behind; this was particularly important.
He hung up the voice call.
Walter's voice call came through.
"Ice King, are you okay?" Walter asked with concern.
"I'm fine, thanks for your concern," Alan replied.
Walter hesitated but finally said, "Ice King, my father just asked me if the guild can be transferred. The price is negotiable."
"No." Alan still refused directly.
"Alright." Walter didn't say much more.
Walter added, "Ice King, remember to take me along when you get to Central City. You can name the price."
"Okay," Alan replied and hung up the voice call.
Alan began to ponder the second task.
[In ancient times, Lysandra fought for Aeldias against the Shadowmage King but was sealed beneath the newbie village.]
[Task requirement: Release the sealed Lysandra.]
[Task penalty: All fire attribute attacks you receive will have doubled damage.]
[Task reward: Unknown.]
From the first task scroll, his speculation was correct.
Upon completion, there would be the blessing of the gods.
It was just a pity that the third task scroll he speculated about, killing Lysandra, did not appear.
However, he seemed to be able to complete this task without much difficulty.
Because all three pieces of Icefire Ore were in his possession, he could open the seal below the cliff.
He made his way to the cliff.
Alan was a bit troubled because he didn't know how to get down.
The players who had jumped off the cliff before had all died.
Now that the resurrection altar in the newbie village had been destroyed, if he died, he would end up leaving the newbie village and respawning in Central City.
After circling the edge of the cliff twice, Alan still found nothing.
"Let this arrow reveal the secrets hidden below the cliff!"
Alan shot an arrow down the cliff.
The result?
No reaction.
Next, he made a Molotov cocktail and threw it down.
After throwing it down, the firelight grew smaller and smaller until it completely disappeared.
Alan was a bit troubled.
At this height, jumping down would most likely be fatal.
"There must be some hidden mechanism I haven't discovered."
Alan pondered for a moment and continued to circle around.
If he had known, he should have asked Charles for the way down back then.
Alan started trying with arrows; there must be something he hadn't discovered.
Suddenly, Alan spotted steel wires in the mist on the cliff!
If it weren't for the Eye of Purity, Alan wouldn't have seen them.
"So that's it."
Alan understood, leaped, and landed on a steel wire.
Then the second, the third...
Only Alan could do this.
If it were other players, even if they came here, they probably wouldn't be able to stand on the steel wires.
Half an hour later, Alan finally reached the bottom of the cliff.
Here, Alan saw a huge formation.
Alan approached the formation, and on a black-and-white area, there were two holes.
One of them was shaped like the Icefire Ore, and as for the other hole...
He had the corresponding item for that hole, too!
It was the mysterious key that dropped from the enraged weasel.
At that time, Alan was wondering what the mysterious key was for.
"Who's there?"
Alan was just about to open the seal when he instantly looked toward the end of the canyon.
At the end of the canyon, a figure walked slowly and steadily.
His steps were firm, and his build was robust.
Because of the thick mist below the cliff and the distance, Alan couldn't see the person clearly.
As the person got closer, Alan finally saw his face.
After seeing his face, Alan's expression turned to disbelief.
He was so shocked that he staggered back two steps.
"How is this possible!?
"Why is it you?"
Alan could hardly believe what he saw.
Once an NPC in the newbie village died, they were supposed to be permanently dead, with no reason to revive.
"Aren't you already dead?" Alan asked in disbelief.
The person revealed a playful smile and said unhurriedly, "Who told you I was dead? The one you killed was my brother. We've been planning this for a long time, and unfortunately, it required the sacrifice of my brother."
At this point, he looked at the sky with some regret, "Brother, your death was worth it. Our plan is about to succeed!
"David is your brother? Who exactly are you? I don't recall anyone like you in the newbie village!"
