Chapter 174 The Golden Fleece
After Zhou Ni took the underworld ship and left the sea of Dongli Island, he drove eastward on the sea, passed through the Sea of the Bright Moon, entered the range of the Black Sea, and then continued to travel east. It took a total of four hours before finally reaching the destination of his trip, the Kingdom of Korcas.
Originally, Zhou Ni had to do a pre-task first. After obtaining a large ship in that pre-task, you could use the large ship to sail to the Kingdom of Korcas.
But since Zhou Ni himself has the Nether Ship, he can come here directly. In order to save time, this pre-task can be completely omitted.
Since the Kingdom of Colcas is a hidden place, Zhou Ni was not afraid to meet other players here. He directly followed the mission strategy dictated by A Du, and drove the underworld ship to dock on a beach in the Kingdom of Colcas.
As soon as he landed in the territory of the Kingdom of Korcas from that beach, Zhou Ni saw a small bluestone altar on a beach not far away from him, and surrounded by a group of NPCs, who were watching a sacrifice ceremony in the altar.
As soon as he approached the altar, the plot mission was automatically triggered. Zhou Ni walked straight to the crowd and watched the sacrifice ceremony in the altar.
At this time, inside the altar, a young man in his early twenties was slaughtering a ram with a sharp sword in his hand.
From the outside, the ram is different from ordinary rams. The wool on it is pure gold and has a pair of wings. Although its wings and limbs are tied with thick ropes, it does not show any fear. It is just closing its eyes and looking at slaughter.
The young man first squatted on the ground, used the sharp sword in his hand to shaved the pure gold wool on the ram, then stood up, looked up at the sky, and said, "Mr. Zeus, thank you for blessing me for successfully escaping. Now please accept my offering."
As soon as he finished his thoughts, the young man held the sword in both hands and penetrated straight down, killing the ram.
As soon as the ram was killed in the altar, a blue thunderbolt fell from the sky and slashed directly on the corpse of the ram and took it away directly.
When the young man saw this scene, he first knelt down and bowed to the sky, then got up and picked up the only pure golden wool left on the ground, and left the altar directly.
After the sacrifice ceremony, the NPCs around the altar finally dispersed one after another.
At this moment, Zhou Ni suddenly saw a familiar face among the group of NPCs. Although this familiar face was different from usual, Zhou Ni recognized him at first sight because he was no one else, but Zeus, known as the king of gods.
Since he was still in the mission plot, Zhou Ni involuntarily walked towards Zeus and whispered to Zeus: "Master Zeus, why are you here?"
"Human, it turns out it's you. We've met again. Why can I see you anywhere? It seems that we are really destined to be. By the way, it's not convenient to talk here, please follow me."
Zeus said, and led the way forward and brought Zhou Ni to an unmanned corner of the beach. Then he continued to say to Zhou Ni: "Human, in fact, I was attracted by the golden ram. The golden ram is one of my favorite offerings. Unfortunately, the man's sacrifice was wrong just now. He should have sacrificed the pure golden wool and the ram to me, because the reason why I like the golden ram is that I have a fancy to its extremely precious golden wool."
"Since that's the case, when the man offered the ram sacrifice to you just now, why didn't you come forward to remind the man?" Zhou Ni asked.
"As the king of the gods, humans have always offered sacrifices to me. How can I take the initiative to ask for sacrifices from humans?" Zeus shook his head and said.
"That's right, then I can only blame that person for being too ugly." Zhou Ni said.
"Oh, I really want that golden wool." Zeus sighed on his own.
Seeing that Zeus seemed to really want to get the golden wool, Zhou Ni volunteered and said: "Master Zeus, why don't I come forward to find the young man and ask you for that golden wool?"
"No need, I said, I will not take the initiative to ask for sacrifices from humans." Zeus waved his hand.
After hearing what Zeus said, Zhou Ni had to give up this idea, but Zeus sighed at himself: "Oh, I really want that golden wool."
Seeing Zhou Ni's appearance, Zhou Ni said intently: "It seems that Lord Zeus really wants to get the golden wool. Why don't I ask him for instructions and just take the golden wool and give it to him. This should not be considered as he took the initiative to ask others for sacrifices."
Thinking of this, Zhou Ni said to Zeus: "Mr. Zeus, it is rare to meet you again. I have something to give to you, but I didn't put that thing on my body. I want to pick it up now. Can you wait for me here?"
"It's not convenient for me to wait for you here for too long. This is how I have to stay in this country of Korcas for a day and a night. If you really have something to give me, just go to the nearby village of Kiru to find me."
Zeus said, then left the place directly, and sighed while walking, "Oh, I really want that golden wool."
At this point, the task plot finally ended, and Zhou Ni also received a system prompt and two task prompts at this time.
System prompt: Congratulations, the hidden task "Golden Wool" was triggered.
Task Tips: Please successfully obtain the "Golden Wool" within 24 hours and send it to Kiru Village and hand it over to Zeus, otherwise the task will fail.
Task Tips: You have 23 hours, 59 minutes and 58 seconds left to hand over the "Golden Wool" to Zeus.
After reading these system prompts and task prompts, Zhou Ni immediately used the system permissions obtained by A Duxin - [Time Stop], pausing the countdown of this task.
After doing all this, Zhou Ni quickly left the beach and came directly to the royal city of the Kingdom of Colcas - Colcas City.
Since Zhou Ni was still wanted, he was targeted by the guards of Korcas as soon as he approached the gate of the royal city.
"Oh, this city has guards, it seems that you have to think of other ways to enter the city." At the beginning, Zhou Ni relied on his own state of rapid attribute growth, so he killed many Hera City guards with his own strength. In this state, Zhou Ni knew that he was no match for this group of Korcas City guards at all, so he had to temporarily stay away from the gate of Korcas City before the guards began to attack him.
