Chapter 1666: Brig
Sam frowned as he looked at the details that appeared on a virtual screen in front of him.
Hel's narration only irritated him more.
He doesn't know why, but it is very frustrating. But he cannot just stop listening to it. Hel went on.
"There are going to be many people who will try to get their hands on this technique. They might be the people from within the organization, or people from some other organizations.
But you have to make sure that for the time of the task, the technique wouldn't fall into anyone's hands. You are going to lose if anyone else even gets a part of that technique out of that person.
It cannot be stolen from him, copied from him or tortured out of him. You get the point. You basically have to infiltrate into his organization, meet the person, earn his trust and make sure he keeps his trap shut.
Good luck with that.
With your current condition, I think you need it a lot."
Hel paused and gave him a slight smile. Sam shook his head and didn't bother to reply and just went over the details of the organization.
Meanwhile Hel continued to talk with the other candidates.
"The remaining six of you. You are going to be dropped off in six different organizations within the same regions. The six organizations are worshipping the gods within the game. The gods will inform these organizations about the technique that I am going to release.
They will have plans about acquiring it. So, your task is to join the organizations, earn their trust, help them acquire technique.
No matter how much your contribution is there to it, as long as your organization wins the technique, you will win a badge.
And there is not just going to be one winner. The first person to get it will get a badge with higher score. There is a possibility for all six of the teams to obtain it. The badge will remain the same, only the score will be increased.
As for Sam, the score of your badge will depend on how many organization you are going to stop from getting this technique. And since you have an unfair disadvantage against six opponents, you will get double the total score you have.
You have the details of your organizations on your screen, along with a basic explanation of the scene revolving around all these organizations.
Since this is the first task, the first person to get a badge will be given a special badge. And also their score in the first task will be doubled. Those are the details.
You have fifteen minutes in this place to recover as much energy as you can and you will be leaving after that.
"There is no time to prepare?"
Dayus asked in surprise. He is very pleased until now. He was in the middle of clearing his second floor and he was also taking a break. He is in perfect shape except for the slight corruption.
Compared to the rest of the candidates, he is perfectly fine and he can win this with his eyes closed. All he needs is some extra preparation just to make sure that his opponents are going to mess this up. If he has some preparation time to think of a plan, he is pretty sure that he will win this.
While Dayus is thinking of how to win this without any preparation, the other players are running wild with their own thoughts. They don't know how to react to this.
Particularly Kumar and Noah who were in the middle of battles and were dragged here. If they can, they would have slapped the shit of Hel for doing this.
Sam sat crosslegged and started recovering his energy slowly. He cannot afford to think about other players. He is in a very dangerous situation right now. He is injured, his body is corrupt with the hell's energy and he is put on defense.
He cannot use harbinger, his feather coat, his executioner sword, his hand guns, energy cannons, energy beams and even formations.
He is with a major handicap. He highly doubts that the double points and extra badge are worth the trouble he is going to go through.
With those thoughts running in his mind, he felt the suction force again along with the rest of the players. He reappeared in a forest on a rock.
He looked around. It is an empty patch without any living thing in his sight. He looked at his finger. There is a storage ring on it and he doesn't even know how it came there. Inside the ring, he found his sword, his hand gun, ten bullets and the rest of the space is filled with spirit stones. Which are not exactly much.
At one point Sam is sure that he spent more on a single meal. He is flat broke. He felt poorer than when he appeared at Lava rock village. Then he barely had a dozen or so spirit stones. He felt richer at that time that he is now.
Along with those things, he also got some information in his head. The location he is currently in, the route to the organization he needs to visit, the information on the person who is getting the technique.
There is also a bit of information that was not revealed before. He cannot use his beasts. For some reason, he felt that there is some emphasis on it. He looked around in the surroundings. He has some extra clothing in that limited storage. He tore off one of the robes and bandaged the wound on his arms.
He then slowly started walking towards the city where the organization is settled. While doing he went through the other task details once again.
The time limit is seven days and there is an invisible timer in his head and it is already running.
The person who he is meeting is actually considered a middle-aged man. He has a daughter who is a full blown adult and even considered one of the prettiest women in the whole region. The guy is named Brig and his daughter is Yana.
Brig has some really great reputation in that area. He is the best person with curses. He can make them, remove them, he even created some of his own curses. He is a force to be reckoned with.
He is a nightmare to the rest of the rival organizations in the surroundings. Not just for his fighting prowess and the curse ability, because he is also a great teacher. He trained some great students. They are part of the organization he is currently in and they have some mean reputation as well.
Over the years, many people from the other organizations in the surroundings. There are many people who wanted to be his students too. But almost all of his students stayed in the organization, there are very few people who he trained and left without joining the organization. But still, they are considered honorary members of sorts and help the organization out whenever their teacher asks for it.
Now a days there is a third scenario that is happening constantly that is related to the old man. That is people coming to him and asking his daughter's hand for marriage. In fact, the six organizations, are constantly sending the prospective candidates to woo her.
Brig didn't want to go through all the shit with these suitors and left the decision to his daughter. Yana is currently trying to pick one suitor and one of the main things she put out there is that she doesn't care for the status of these six guys and she is open for anyone to try and woo her.
This gave some courage for a bunch of guys in the region. Anyone with a notable status, notable talent in the dark elemental energy and anyone with a shred of ambition and greed came to try their luck.
They all have their own intentions. But one thing in common is that they all want to get the advantage of being the son-in-law of Brig.
From all of this information, Sam understood a few things. The target is a very well known person. He is a peak stage Astral Plane cultivator and he can utilize Divine energy, on the verge of breakthrough to the Divine Plane cultivation.
Most of the suitors are in middle and late stage of Astral Plane Consummate.
There are a lot of people revolving around Brig and Yana. It is not going to easy to deal with all of them.
This also gave the other players another advantage. They can use the suitors as an excuse to make their way near Brig and Yana. With the news of the technique being released reaching to the other clans, they are going to become aggressive with the wooing approach while trying some other methods behind their backs.
He has a lot to plan. But a lot less time and a lot fewer resources than he wants.
