1161 The Breakthrough Point of the Job Skill Ques

"So it's you." Old Man Hermit lifted his wrinkled old face and squinted his eyes to look at Wang Yu, then said with surprise, "Your growth really surprises me. It hasn't been too long since we've met and you are already labelled as the expert of this generation. Say, why are you looking for me?"

"Teacher, what a compliment."

Wang Yu politely hugged his fists then spoke as if he was reciting stage lines, "I have mastered the skills you passed on to me but despite so, when I am in a battle with the devil, it still feels insufficient. I hope you can give me some advice."

"Haha!"

Hermit studied Wang Yu once more and said, "Hmm, not bad, I can tell you've been working hard but there is nothing else I can teach you. However, back when I was roaming around the mainland, I created a skill. If you want, I can teach you."

"It would be my pleasure."

Wang Yu quickly replied. He spoke so much rubbish was all just to learn this skill.

"Great!" Hermit nodded his head in satisfaction. He caressed his beard and said, "You can be taught! You can be taught!"

"I'll be counting on you, Teacher!!" Wang Yu added.

"En!"

Hermit caressed his beard and side-eyed Wang Yu then he let out a playful smile and said, "This is my most valuable knowledge and I don't just teach anyone. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Wang Yu speechlessly broke out in sweat, "I do, I do! How can I not when your hands are almost in my pockets?"

As he spoke, Wang Yu took out two bottles of alcohol and placed them beside Hermit.

"Hmph!" Hermit upsetly said, "I am different from those job instructors who learnt bits and pieces from me. You want to learn my skill with just two bottles of alcohol? You're really belittling me."

"Then how about three bottles?" Wang Yu took another bottle out and placed it on the ground. Wang Yu knew that NPCs were always greedy. No matter how much you gave them, it would never be enough. So to test their bottom line, he had to do it bit by bit.

Indeed, upon seeing how Wang Yu added a bottle, Hermit instantly upsetly said, "Stop wasting my time, four bottles at least!"

Wang Yu, "…"

Great, so this old man's bottom line is so low.

In broad daylight, this is not a lie… Not only was kung fu a miserable livelihood in real life, it was also only worth four bottles of alcohol in the game.

After paying his lesson fees, Hermit satisfyingly said, "Young lad, you are pretty good, the smartest amongst my students."

"Oh? You have other students?" Wang Yu asked in surprise.

"Nope, that's why you are the smartest," Hermit said tauntingly.

"I…" Wang Yu was at a loss for words so he said, "Sir, let's start the lesson."

"Teacher, your lie to gain alcohol is too overboard!"

Upon hearing what Hermit said, Wang Yu's mood instantly turned for the worse… Although four bottles of alcohol were not expensive, he had spent so much time begging and pleading over here, and yet now this old man said he could not do it. This was blatant sabotage.

"Enough, don't panic." Hermit smiled and slowly said, "Although I can't use it anymore, I recorded the skill down back then. I believe that based on your abilities, you can interpret it from there."

"Then where is the skill book?" Wang Yu asked again.

"Well…" Hermit gave it some thought and said, "During the final battle between the God of Devils, I lost the notes to the commander, Saint Alice. After Saint Jacob fell, that notebook should have fallen with her into the God of Devils Fortress. If you can get it back, I can give you some pointers on how to learn the skill."

Once Hermit finished speaking, Wang Yu received a system notification.

\u003cSystem Notification: You have triggered the job skill quest, Hermit's Lost Book, Quest Grade A. Accept?\u003e

"Yes!"

Wang Yu casually clicked to accept the quest.

\u003cSystem Notification: You have accepted the job skill quest, Hermit's Lost Notes, quest level A.

Quest Objective: Retrieve Hermit's lost notes from the God of Devils Fortress 0/1.

Quest Reward: Level 60 job's ultimate skill.

Note: This is an individual quest, no teams can be formed \u003e

"God of Devils Fortress…"

After speed-reading through the quest details, Wang Yu gulped down his saliva.

Although no one had done the level 60 job skill quest so far, Wang Yu had heard Fearless and the rest mentioned that usual players' job skill quests are not difficult but lengthy.

However, it was different for Wang Yu. Every time he saw the quest details, he would collapse.

Damn, God of Devils Fortress — that was a forbidden ground in the game as it was full of surviving dead souls left behind from the God of Devils battle. Even the lowest level one was a level 100 monster so its danger level was way higher than the Dragon Island.

The large dragons were strong but their family planning was so good that their population is diminishing so in the huge Dragon Island, Wang Yu barely met a few of them.

The battleground of the God of Devils battle was different. It was the last battleground of the God of Devils battle and even in the records of the brutal situation of the war, it stated that monsters densely populated the area.

Based on Wang Yu's current abilities, he could easily defeat monsters 40 levels higher than him but if he was outnumbered by level hundred monsters surrounding him, he would be helpless. After all, this was a game. Levels and attributes played a strong role in abilities.

With complete disadvantage in terms of attributes and quantity, Wang Yu would be left to be beaten up.

Of course, in \u003c\u003cREBIRTH\u003e\u003e, it was full of traps but not all traps led to death.

Since the system design this seemingly impossible quest for level 60 players, it definitely had a breakthrough point.

Obviously, Hermit was that so-called breakthrough point.

After some thought, Wang Yu suddenly asked as though he thought of something, "Teacher, how's your relationship with Saint Alice like?"

"That woman…" Hermit gave a bittersweet smile and said, "She is the only person who could get along with me in the Light Temple. What do you think?"

"Oh…" Wang Yu nodded and questioned, "I heard that Light Temple's people are very conscious of cleanliness. I really doubt that as a beggar, you could be close to Saint Alice."

"What do you know!" Hermit angrily said, "Back then, I was a handsome, charismatic man who charmed many ladies' hearts."

"Really? There is no evidence though." Wang Yu suspectingly looked at Hermit who was all blushed in disbelief.

"Of course!" Hermit's dry, wrinkled hands dipped into his chest and tremblingly took out a cross necklace and said proudly, "She gave me this cross!"

Wang Yu saw it and quickly threw a [Probing] skill over. The cross' attributes appeared before his eyes.

Holy Cross (Quest Item)

Item introduction: The cross commander of the Light Temple, Saint Alice's possession.

Seeing the necklace's attributes, Wang Yu's eyes lit up.

Indeed, it looked like the key breakthrough point of the quest was this thing!
