Players’ NPC daddy

Chapter 1963 How dare you!

After Greenland's rather earnest explanation, Guild Leader Zero, feeling utterly humiliated, chose to be exploited for free labor.

Because he really didn't dare let Greenland do this, or more accurately, he didn't dare let Blazer, who would be with Greenland, know about it.

He could imagine Blaise's reaction, or more precisely, his thought process, once he learned that they were looking for the Flame of Peace.

But he really couldn't blame this situation on Blazer and Herbie. Herbie's meaning was clearly that finding someone who was roughly the same would be fine, and if that didn't work, just lighting a fire would do; there were no big requirements.

But Blazer is a very serious person. He doesn't understand "casual" or "perfunctory" approaches. He will definitely launch an attack with the goal of "the existence of the Holy Flame of Peace in this world".

The result was that the "Peace Flame" appeared in a rather unpeaceful way, and the best way to handle it was to prevent Blaze from finding out about it.

Greenland now has a get-out-of-jail-free card with him, and they actually found something for Blazer to do for more than two months, and they even supervised the whole process.

Last time, because he was lazy, mass-produced solar chariots and mobile kingdoms emerged, almost causing the World City project to be stillborn, and all the kingdoms went into a state of war preparation.

All of these things can ultimately be attributed to him, so even if he's being targeted, he has nothing to say.

"Haa~~~"

Guild leader Zero propped his head up with his hands and let out a utterly dejected sigh. He used to be such a carefree and unrestrained person.

"I didn't expect you to understand the dangers of Blazer's reckless actions, and to specifically ask those of us who keep a low profile for help."

Greenland shrugged, neither confirming nor denying.

She has many people she can contact, and those people would certainly be happy to take on this task, including two super guilds, [Fairy Kingdom] and [Freemasonry].

The problem is that those are all respectable people in the conventional sense, beloved by the NPCs, and their every move becomes the subject of discussion among the NPCs.

What would happen if these prestigious players were asked to find a Peace Flame? If nothing unexpected happens, the news would reach Blaze's ears within three days at most.

As for Blazer, once he hears about the importance of the Flame of Peace to the Olympiad, he will definitely take immediate action, start searching for it in a big way, and begin his own research.

The "Peace Flame" must embody the element of "peace" and be a "sacred flame." The term "sacred flame" itself suggests a high status, something to be revered. Therefore, the search should be conducted among peoples with ancient traditions and heritage…

Then it wouldn't be surprising at all if Blazer found something out.

"It's no joke that players will be killed by grinding. Even I, a former professional gamer, and game streamers need to rest."

In other games, once a major event ends, it's over. There seems to be no change before or after the event, or the change is very small, and players can start to enjoy a period of downtime.

But it's different here; data collisions spark even more data insights, generating content.

Large-scale events, especially world-class events, have a ripple effect. After a world-class event concludes, various regions will experience similar large-scale events, like "afterthoughts," to absorb the impact of the event.

If the event involves opening a new map, then there will be even more events, such as investigating the ecology, drawing maps, and so on.

Not to mention that different regions have different customs and activities, which are divided into warm-up activities and formal activities. These local customs are fixed on a specific date and don't care whether the sky fell yesterday.

Players can, of course, ignore these local customs, but who can guarantee that there aren't any special missions or rewards hidden within them? Those once-a-year folk events won't wait for anyone.

Because some players have already obtained special professions from folk activities, a special group of players has emerged known as Folk Hunters. Their daily task is to participate in folk activities everywhere. There are just too many things to do; it would be a waste not to do them all.

The main reason for this situation is the large-scale events and the frequent release of new content, leaving no time for digestion.

If Blaze can remain stable until the start of the Olympus Tournament, it will give players at least two months to prepare.

Two months is enough time for players to consume most of the new content they've accumulated over the past year and a half, and then return to a state of hunger.

After a brief, minor complaint, Guild Leader Zero, instead of dwelling on the matter, began discussing with Greenland what kind of fire could be used as the peace flame for the Olympia tournament.

Offline, it's just a matter of lighting a fire. But in this fantasy world, lighting a fire is quite a delicate matter, as different types of firewood will produce different effects.

Take the most representative fire elemental creature as an example. If you throw firewood or items that help with combustion at a fire elemental creature, you can strengthen it. Conversely, items that retard combustion can significantly reduce the power of a fire elemental creature.

Fuels with holy effects can imbue fire elementals with holy attributes, while those with evil effects, such as dark wood, can make fire elementals evil.

The most important part of the Olympic flame of peace is the relay, which requires fuel to keep the flame burning.

Herbie's plan for the torch of peace aims to connect at least all known peoples, a route that will likely be quite long and require considerable resources for the flame and fuel.

"If possible, it would be best to make it into some kind of weapon, such as a torch or something."

"Hmm, good suggestion." Guild Master Zero nodded and noted Greenland's suggestion.

"But is it really okay for you to keep dawdling here like this?"

"what happened?"

“I did the same thing last time, just made Blaze disappear from my sight for a little while, and guess what?” Guild Master Zero laughed with a hint of schadenfreude.

"Haha~ How could that be? How could that be? That was obviously your mistake, putting Blaze in a place where there's obviously hidden content." Greenland laughed heartily, but her laughter quickly faded.

So the Golden Tree Sea is some kind of wonderful place?
The evil god's legacy has at least been completely plundered, but the Golden Tree Sea is only at a single-digit development level.

"Oh my god!"

……

World R, the Golden Tree Sea, the Primordial Tree of Life.

In this world that is forever filled with boundless vitality, there is a sorrow called death.

The fallen elves wept, their faces buried in their hands. They wanted to comfort the elves, but having witnessed too many such tragedies, they didn't know where to begin.

Blazer stood there between them, stunned, his face full of disbelief.

"What?! Catherine is going to die?!"
