“Holy shit, it’s actually a Legendary Grade hidden mission!” Big Pineapple exclaimed as he stared delighted at the brief introduction of the mission, specifically at the two words, “Legendary Grade.” After that, with his eyes opened up wide, he did not hesitate to speak. “Hey, let’s accept it! I believe that we should definitely accept this mission!”

Onishi frowned and gave an opposing view instead, “Hold on a second, I think that we should thoroughly discuss and reconsider the plausibility of this mission, don’t you think so?”

“This is a Legendary Grade mission, and from the look of the reward, it isn’t normal. But we should not forget the penalty of failing the mission as well as the mission requirements themselves. Reduce all stats by five points. The penalty for failure is just too much.” Onishi explained.

For Feng Luo who had just awakened the Force, losing five points of stats was still within an acceptable range. However, for normal players, five points of stats for all stats were the equivalent of one-eighth of the basic stats of most gears.

Unfortunately, not many people would dare make that bet, even if the mission had the word “Legendary” attached to it.

After all, William, who was the creator of the G-virus, had failed to cure his daughter’s disease.

As for the method that he mentioned, it was only a predicted success; in truth, it wasn’t 100% guaranteed.

One of the problems of War was that the degree of freedom of the storyline missions was too high. Whether it was the actions or the words of an NPC or a player, the results could change drastically.

As such, even if William’s method guarantees a 100% success rate, no one could guarantee that nothing would go wrong during the treatment process.

If some other factors caused Sally’s treatment to fail, that would mean that the players had to suffer a total of 20 points of basic stat points loss.

For Onishi, a superstar player who gained fame and popularity through winning PK matches against other players, a 20-point stat disadvantage against other top players was just too much, which was why Onishi was reluctant to accept the mission.

Feng Luo looked at Digital Cat, who was still considering her options. Then, he considered it for a moment before nodding and said, “How about this? Since this mission can be accepted individually, anyone who wants to accept it can accept it. Regardless, I am going to accept it.”

Truth be told, Onishi’s reasoning was logical and made sense.

Even if he were incredibly confident with the Virology Master, Lin; Feng Luo could not guarantee and claim that nothing was going to go wrong.

However, since the mission was connected to this Epic Level mission; moreover, it also involved the G-virus, he had no good reason to reject the mission.

Moreover, Feng Luo was also a lot more confident that he could complete the mission, as compared to the other three players.

The reason was that he knew that Sally Parkins was a protagonist in the Resident Evil game series just like Aida Wong; so theoretically, she should have the ever invincible “plot armor” with her.

“Let’s accept it. Why won’t we accept it? Little Sally is so pitiful…” From behind the group of players came the voice of a woman.

Upon hearing the voice, most of them turned around, “You’re awake?”

As expected, Phoenix was sitting up from within her red sports car while rubbing her eyes. In her arms was the pale and still unconscious little Sally who was burning up.

Clearly, this was Phoenix herself rather than the virtual second personality. The virtual personality of Phoenix would definitely not have been able to hold such a conversation with the other players.

In the end, Big Pineapple, Phoenix, and Feng Luo decided to accept the mission. Digital Cat and Onishi chose to give up on the mission.

However, they did not just decline the mission directly; the reason was that there was an important question they had to ask before doing that.

Sally was, at the moment, the mission objective. Technically, she should be handed over to Haruko when they returned. Before that, Nightingale and Ada Wong, the two NPC special agents who were also their competition, were waiting beside them.

To complete the hidden mission, they had to first achieve victory in the special agent competitive mission.

“Nightingale probably won’t care. He’s very seriously injured so he shouldn’t have much combat strength left. As for Ada Wong, Old Feng, you’ve already awakened the Force. Onishi also has a Legendary Grade submachine gun now. She’s just one female NPC special agent, we should be able to win, right?” Big Pineapple whispered as he glanced towards Ada Wong.

“Why do I feel a sense of familiarity with this conversation…” Feng Luo said with a smile.

He remembered back then on Death Hunter Island, when he did not know that advanced NPCs had stats like the Force, and as a result, Big Pineapple also suggested that he and Feng Luo working together might have been enough to defeat Nightingale.

However, history proved that they definitely underestimated Nightingale back then.

This time, Feng Luo felt that Big Pineapple was underestimating Ada Wong.

“If we really do it, it is unfortunate but I think our success rate is, at most, 20%.” Feng Luo shook his head and sneaked a glance at Ada Wong, who was almost finished repairing her eight-cylinder silver heavy motorcycle.

“20%? No way?” Big Pineapple clearly did not believe that.

“Don’t doubt it, it might be even less than 20%. Did you not notice something? Ever since the beginning, she never used the Force at all…” Digital Cat nodded and said. This young lady whose IQ was more than 300 was constantly observing the people around her. She was computing all the data she acquired through observation and came to a conclusion.

“This… Damn… It looks like she really never used it before. No way, even when we fought against a Level 60 Quasi-Boss Grade Boss, she was still able to preserve her strength? No wonder her actual combat strength is above the Level 60 Quasi-Boss monster.” Big Pineapple said with his eyes wide open. After that, he stared at Onishi.

“I can’t detect her level or other information. However, I also feel that she preserved her strength in our earlier battles. Moreover, at the last moment, you saw the damage inflicted by her gun, right? It’s possible that it is a Legendary Grade item. If we were to really fight her, even if we ignore the crazy attack power of the gun, just from the fact that she hid her Force, our chance of victory has already been halved.” Onishi nodded and agreed with Digital Cat’s assessment.

“Apart from that, I have to let you guys know something. My Force is almost completely depleted. This stuff also recovers rather slowly. I will need at least 20 minutes before I can use my Force skills.” Feng Luo revealed another fact that lowered morale.

“Then, what do we do? Should we not accept the mission after all?” Big Pineapple looked down. Was a Legendary Grade hidden mission going to waste, just like that?

“Don’t be hasty. The mission is not over yet after all. Moreover, a battle does not have to be fought up front all the time. Phoenix, the wound on Nightingale’s chest earlier, was it caused by William’s body?” Feng Luo was shaking his head while contemplating other ways to deal with the situation while asking Phoenix, who had just regained consciousness.

“Yeah. How could we forget this incident? Nightingale was directly injured by William. Is he going to turn into a G-virus infected being? By then, when he and the female special agent fight and injure each other badly, we’ll be the ones to profit at the end…” Big Pineapple actually reacted rather quickly this time.

“There’s a 99% chance that he won’t be infected.” However, a very firm and confident voice immediately ruled out the possibility of that happening. Digital Cat pushed her spectacles and looked at everyone else.

“Digi Sis, how do you know that?” Big Pineapple was the one to question her.

“Earlier in the data provided by William, the G-virus infection rate was shown to be much weaker than the T-virus. Theoretically, after synthesizing itself with the human body, the virus will encounter a drastic mutation and one cannot be infected by the virus directly through touch.” Digital Cat said calmly.

“No way. Those complex data and scenes were moving so quickly, and you actually understood them?” Big Pineapple asked her, shocked.

“The key is that, even if you understood it, those data only appeared briefly, you wouldn’t have enough time to read them, right?” Phoenix, Big Pineapple, and Onishi had a look of disbelief on their faces.

“I memorized them and read through them slowly in my mind.” Digital Cat answered as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Only Feng Luo looked at Digital Cat with a slightly surprised expression, as if he had just remembered something.

However, at that moment, from the location of the crashed chopper, a loud and sudden shout came from Nightingale, “Hurry! Someone come and help!”

It seemed like he had encountered something.
