Chapter 62: So close!

"Since when do those cunts drop potions?" The mage with vulgar tongue reacted to the potion in one of the expected ways. His friends voiced their opinions as well.

For them, The Ice Yeti must've eaten this potion a long time ago, "An old yeti... This one should've given us a lot of EXP! Check logs." To become named NPC, the monster also could hold onto his life for a long time. It would then become named NPC by giving itself a name.

Of course, it was hard to tell how much time would be needed for such a phenomenon. But monsters that survived some time after their 'respawn' would give much more EXP than usual.

If those players actually checked their logs, they would've noticed that something fishy was going on.

However, they were short on stuff and free potion had too much allure. They split the potion and already gulped it down!

The man who was like the embodiment of the fire spoke in the usual, vulgar tone, "We have spent more than five months here. Let's just see whether we can get more potions. If not, then I am done with this quest."

"We can still level up smoothly. As long as we keep our formation and keep an eye on yetis' movements, we can reduce our demand for consumables." That was true! This snow land was a good leveling ground for fire and ice mages.

Any player would find himself here as long as they possessed good equipment. Tanks needed shields and armors with fire attributes while mages of fire and ice type would probably cope well with the aforementioned class.

Tank and mages would have a good time here, but all classes would strive here if equipped well.

The party had the strongest tank and mages, but they wouldn't survive five months without a healer.

This healer spoke up, "What about monkeys?"

"Don't make me remember this cunt!" The fire mage stood up, his hand swept before him as he added, "If I see him, I will go all out!" Because of Michu, the party lost much more consumable stuff because they simply went against more monsters than usual!

He seethed with anger and no one bothered to remind him about his abundant profanities. To his words, everyone had agreed wholeheartedly! The monkey had to be punished! Everyone was fighting here on the line, spent months and months in this Impossible Quest, then some monkey dared to play around?!

"That player is a monkey too! Is he one of those fucking role-players?" The fire mage questioned.

The role-players were people that were hiding their real selves behind some kind of act. Funnily enough, a lot of players also said that in this game, everyone could be their real selves, thus, role-playing as well.

People who were into that at an obsessive level were the most annoying pricks to deal with, though. They would follow the script until the very end and their decision wouldn't change despite everyone else proving them wrong.

Such people were... the worst and the fire mage had met some of them already.

His anger billowed. He drank more of his potions and even took some ale to quench his kindled indignation.

The party stopped any talks and silently regenerated their time here. Each of them had various thoughts coursing through them, but all of those ended when one of them abruptly fell to the side!

"W-what? What happened?!" The closest player reacted instantly.

He stood up and looked at his fallen friend whose HP points promptly fell! His head had a thick line on his temple which meant that someone had struck him heavily! The first guess was that... "Monkey!"

The monkey was here! He had staff after all! This kind of wound could be only made by the staff, so the player turned heels, but to no avail. In this snowstorm, his eyesight was severely damaged!

However, Michu had KongFu by his side! Using his ability to extend the staff, the monke and monkey god worked together to slap down all those players! At first, it was easy as no one expected that.

The second and third slaps weren't that easy, but still doable! Michu used his silver crystal to change position, then slapped them from an unexpected angle.

It was roughly five to ten minutes before their limbs would become inert. At this time, Venomous thought of the two most feasible plans. The first was simple - wear them down before the poison kicks in. In this plan, they would use their abilities and put them on the cooldown!

The second one was more merciless, but also to Michu's party advantage.

"Fire Circle: Spark Inflammation." The fire mages uttered, their words drawing the circles beneath their feet. This was what Venomous was looking forward to the most and urged KongFu to convey this information.

Once he confirmed that this circle spread, her lips curved into a triumphant smile, "Let's wait for them to kill themselves now."

A few moments later, the players began to lose control of their limbs. One by one, they fell onto their knees and looked at each other with disbelief in their eyes. Their balance got broken and soon their faces landed in the snow.

It was easy to tell what happened to the circle after that!

BANG!

The loud explosion of uncontrolled flames swallowed them. Their bodies disappeared in the flame curtain, eating them at ravishing speed. In a few seconds, their bodies dispersed into nothingness, leaving a hole within the snow with a few black marks.

"See, Michu? They haven't thought once about why you attacked them. All they thought about was revenge and how to make you pay the price for it." Venomous could see Michu's mixed emotions on his face.

She spoke to just tell him to enjoy the game that was the world full of challenges... Yumi then said, "People love competition." These words were similar to what her father said, but it was meant to unleash the monke's competitiveness!

After Michu's expression turned better, Venomous' heart leaped in joy, "We got closer to our goal, didn't we? That's all it matters!"

Michu didn't have many friends and he also would embrace failure much easier than others. However, for his friends and all their work done here, he didn't want to face any failure at all. If killing other players without 'reason' was required, Michu would go for it instead of calling it a day.

He wanted to see his friends smile the most rather than worry about other players.

Michu was a simple man and he just held this desire deeper within his heart.

"We got four frozen hearts from them..." Venomous checked the loot, "So close. Let's continue our hunt."

"Yeah!"


Chapter 63: Inside The Ice Tomb

Chapter 63: Inside The Ice Tomb

Michu and the enemy player looked deeply at each other.

The snow kept slapping their cheeks, but their eyes remained undisturbed. In the eyes of the man who held the sword, one could see anger and hate toward the monke. This was directed straight into Michu's eyes, but undaunted, Michu took a step forward.

How many people had similar eyes in real life? All of them looked at him the same if not just a tad differently.

'As I thought, I hate those eyes...' Michu inwardly inferred.

He had been doing the gangster stuff by assaulting players and using Yumi's poison to take them down as smoothly as possible. In this ice world, people weren't prepared for sudden poison and most of them just fell to her ploy.

Michu's current opponent was different. He had a way to ignore the poison, so the battle between Michu's party and him was inevitable... He had already lost his party, so what else other than fighting their killers could he do? Hide in this world? Impossible and naive!

[Mayren Lv. 47 HP: 4300/7550 MP: 1054/3400 Guild: Sylas Fun.]

"You seem bothered by something else than me. True... If this stalemate continues, I will fall first due to the snow. So what can bother you?" Mayren asked.

His opponent was looking confused and this confusion would give him a lot of room to either escape or attack back if it weren't for the snow around them.

To his words, Michu stood silent.

He was focused more on his current plight. While others weren't bothered by that in the slightest, Michu couldn't just face every player with killing intent. He turned his eyes to Mayren and asked, "How many people did you kill here?"

"Around twenty... Is killing what bothers you?" Mayren smiled, then said, "You are too soft then. I have been here for three months and persistently stuck with my party to this damn quest. Do you think we killed them just because of frozen hearts? We also did it for consumables and all their other stuff."

"But don't you feel bad for them?" Michu replied.

"Geez! It's like you have never played any games. Dude, you either win or lose. When you lose, you get mad and vent anger in your way. When you win, you stay above everyone else and you are just happy about your accomplishment. If you just get something, it's not fun at all, right?" Meyran shared some wisdom, then concluded, "We came here to get the Impossible Quest's rewards. For them, we were ready to destroy anyone. Is there a reason to hold back in the game?"

"I still think it's bad to just attack anyone. But, thank you." Michu smiled and dispelled every worry within his heart, "Now that I spoke with you, I see that your anger has diminished. I guess I will try to speak with everyone!"

"Uhh.." That was weird. Meyran didn't know how to respond! He just shrugged, "We play this game in our ways."

The clash between the monke and Meyran lasted for fifteen minutes.

KongFu and Venomous looked at them from the side.

Both of them had the same thought, "This dude wouldn't fall that easily if it weren't for the poison and snow."

-

After Michu's party gathered ten frozen hearts, they headed to the Ice Tomb.

Most of the players would have to check the Ice Tomb's entrance first before hunting all other players for the frozen hearts. However, KongFu's senses had helped them greatly here.

Facing the entrance, everyone put ten frozen hearts in their respective spots.

The entrance to the tomb shook loudly. It was so loud that surrounding players should've been notified about it. While it was something to worry about, Venomous kept her eyes on the door and believed that the Ice Tomb wouldn't disappoint her.

And she was right.

The doors split just a little, revealing a small gap that shone with bright blue light. This light swallowed Michu's whole party and teleported them straight to the Ice Tomb! The entrance then closed and left everyone else fruitless upon their arrival.

The Ice Tomb inside was embellished with many runes. Those shone each time Michu and his party came closer. The curious monke slid his finger through the rune and found the feeling soft and nice, so he giggled as if it was already his reward for coming here.

Above them, the icicles, long and sharp, threatened them with appearance alone. Those seemed like stuck good and proper by the creator, so no one felt danger yet.

However, the runes weren't the only thing changing as the party moved.

The deeper they went, the colder it became. It was expected, but the party couldn't waste their time on this Ice Tomb's corridor and just rushed past all obstacles!

The cold became like a mask later on as it glued to everyone's faces insistently! But for the first time in The Ice Tomb, Michu and his party found something. It was a chunk of ice floating on water.

The road ended and water replaced the rest!

[Step on the ice platform and withstand the coldness as it goes!]

The coldness was already a bother, but this sudden message prompt pushed them into a worse situation. Not willing to give up, everyone hopped onto the ice platform, then it moved forward.

"It's so cold... So cold!" Michu hugged himself roughly after a minute.

His friend, Yakuzan, came closer and hugged him too to offer some help. Both monkeys ended up clinging to each other which made Sandra jealous! She didn't waste a chance and extended her hands for him as well.

She was from behind, but the monke's warmth and her embarrassment warmed her sufficiently...

"Yumi, are you okay?" Michu asked as he looked at his friend.

While everyone squatted, Yumi stood still and even crossed her arms like a boss. She stood before Michu, so he was someone who got the least coldness as it blew from the front. Her voice soon flowed...

"If I weren't okay, I would be the first one to hug you," She replied, then explained, "If you believe in Cold Time, then you can slow down this coldness and its effects. Weird concept, but I believe in it."

Venomous also had a strong will. She repeated within herself that this Impossible Quest would provide her with an item to bring her closer to her goal. To destroy her father and his guild, she would survive this quest!

Michu's smile also often flashed within her and she wanted to make his goal become reality too.

Thus, even if the cold became unbearable, Venomous would only fall if the game decided to put her down by taking her HP.

"I see... But if you need a hug, then tell me! I will hug you too." Michu stated, then closed his eyes. It was really too cold here, but The Azure Liquid Control kicked in after he closed his eyes and shifted his situation for a little better.

If he had something hot to eat or drink, then Michu would go through the quest no problem!

"I will remember that," Venomous replied, then looked at the front. Where was this platform taking them to? She wanted to see the end already, but if she was correct, then this was The Frozen Trial that would take some time...

Was withstanding the coldness... the only aspect of this very trial, though?
