Chapter 269 - 269 Mission
269 Mission
Zelda’s face was full of worry, and she frowned subconsciously.
When Su Ming heard her words, he first chuckled softly, then looked at Zelda before him and asked,
“When did I become someone who needs protection?”
“And if I don’t even dare to take on such a danger, how can I be a prophet?”
Once he finished speaking, before Zelda could speak again, Su Ming waved his hand and said, “Alright, don’t continue to persuade me.”
“I have to deal with today’s matter by myself. There’s nothing much to say.”
When Zelda saw how determined Su Ming was, she looked as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she did not say anything.
“Very well, Great Prophet. Since you’ve already made your decision, I have nothing more to say.”
“But if you want to go, I’ll call a small team of elves to follow you.”
After saying this, Zelda was about to leave the room. She seemed to be planning to call a small team of elves to protect him.
When Su Ming saw this, he quickly stopped her. “Forget it, forget it, there’s no need. The Vast Flame Kingdom has only sent a small scout squad this time.”
“This kind of team has very sharp observation skills. If we bring too many people, not only will we be easily exposed, but we will also not be able to complete the mission.”
“So, for this mission, the fewer people that go, the better.”
When she heard Su Ming’s words, Zelda was first stunned, then she asked in confusion, “Then, Great Prophet, isn’t it too unsafe for you to go alone?”
When Su Ming heard that, he shook his head. “It’s fine. I have a way to ensure my own safety.”
Zelda bit her lips. Then, she thought of something and her eyes lit up.
“I’ll call Mike over. With his protection, the Prophet’s safety can be guaranteed.”
When Su Ming heard that, he looked at Zelda with a slightly resigned expression before he spoke again, “There’s really no need for that. I can protect myself. Besides, Mike also has his own mission to complete.”
When Zelda saw how determined Su Ming was, she wanted to say something, but in the end, she did not.
Zelda nodded and said seriously, “Then, Great Prophet, you must pay attention to your own safety.”
Su Ming nodded.
In the next moment, a notification lit up in front of him.
[Congratulations, you’ve triggered a mission: the team to explore the Vast Flame Kingdom.]
[Mission reward: Dragon Shadow Helmet *1, experience points *100000, gold coins *100.]
[ Mission description: the Vast Flame Kingdom seems to be getting restless. They have sent out many scouting teams to investigate the Elf Valley. Please be clear about the hidden story behind this. ]
When he saw the notification for the task in front of him, Su Ming quirked his eyebrows, then took a deep breath.
He chatted a little more with Zelda. Once he was certain that there were no more problems, Su Ming chose to set off.
In truth, Su Ming was even more worried about the matter before him than the other people in the Elf Valley.
That was why once he accepted the mission, Su Ming did not do anything to waste time. Instead, he chose to set off.
Once he found Da Bai, the little Golden Dragon, and the turtle, Su Ming brought them back to the forest they had come from.
The three cute pets soon realized that this was the same path they had taken before.
Suddenly, they became a little excited, thinking that they were going to return to the place they had been before.
Su Ming did not bother explaining to them. After all, once they were provoked, they would probably not care where they were.
Since they did not need to take care of their other traveling speeds, the speed at which Su Ming and his three adorable pets traveled was naturally quite ridiculous.
In about half a day’s time, Su Ming and his three adorable pets had already covered a distance that would take them two days to cover.
Two days later, Su Ming and his three adorable pets finally arrived at their destination.
According to the contents of the letter, although the Vast Flame Kingdom’s team was indeed advancing, their speed was rather slow.
Under such circumstances, the place where Su Ming and the two groups of elves were supposed to meet was also the place near the primeval forest.
Once he was close to the ancient forest, Su Ming first observed his surroundings.
Once he was certain that there were no strange groups near the forest, Su Ming went to the agreed location and came to a pool deep in the forest.
This was the place Su Ming had agreed to meet with the small teams of elves.
Once Su Ming arrived at his designated spot, a few small teams of spirits also appeared nearby.
When they saw Su Ming, the small teams of elves walked up to him quickly, and their faces were filled with smiles of surprise.
“Great Prophet, you’ve come?”
Su Ming swept his gaze across the faces of all the members of the elf team. Once he was certain that they were all fine, he nodded.
“First, tell me what you’ve discovered these few days and the other party’s current situation. I’ll explain after I understand the situation.”
Once they heard Su Ming’s words, the elf hunters in front of them looked at each other, then some of them nodded and went up to Su Ming.
“Great Prophet, this is the current situation. Those teams from the Vast Flame Kingdom should have taken the same scouting mission as us and are advancing.”
“Based on the current situation, they will reach this forest in two days at most.”
“And according to their carpet-style search, I reckon that by the time they arrive, it will be difficult for us to hide our tracks.”
After hearing the Elven Hunter’s words, everyone in the hall couldn’t help but look at each other and saw a hint of nervousness in each other’s eyes.
Once the Elf Hunter finished speaking, he looked at Su Ming and asked, “Great Prophet, what do you think we should do next?”
When Su Ming heard his question, he first cast a glance at the elf Hunter before him.
After thinking about it for a while, Su Ming said, “According to the information you’ve gathered, you should be able to determine their current location, right?”
Once he heard Su Ming’s words, the Elf Hunter immediately nodded.
