On hearing Demacia, the oak guard’s expression immediately darkened.

There was a flicker of disappointment and dislike in Berserker’s eyes.

“The chosen one, I thought that you were a righteous brave man. I did not expect that you would turn out to be such a despicable person. You bring shame to the title “Protector of the World Tree!”

Alice looked at Demacia indifferently. Her gaze was cold as if she was looking at a pile of rubbish on the sidewalk.

[Ding–Berserker’s impression of you has decreased by 40 points, reaching “Dislike”]

[Ding–Alice Gale’s impression of you has decreased by 40 points, maintaining “Dislike”]

Demacia looked at the system bar that flashed at his eyes and froze.

“How come? How could the impression points decrease because of my suggestion?”

The players also hesitated.

“This… is not good?”

“What if there are unexpected dangers? Although this is a game, the consequences… would be unimaginable.”

“Right. This game is not those plain online games from before. It’s an almost one-hundred-percent realistic virtual reality game…”

“We cannot go offline while in a combat state. Even if we forcibly quit the game, our bodies will still remain at the same spot. What if we cannot commit suicide…”

“In that case, won’t we get mentally traumatized.”

“I don’t know about everyone, but I will feel very uncomfortable about the whole ordeal. Those goblins look too nasty.”

“I don’t plan to go anyway if that is the plan. I don’t care about the task if you are willing to risk us.”

“I won’t go either.”

“Demacia, you must be single in reality.”

“You don’t deserve a girlfriend.”

Demacia, “…”

Li Mu did not speak. He pondered and suddenly came up with an idea.

“A honey trap? It’s actually a good idea.”

The players were stunned,

“Damn, Brother Mu, you think so too?”

“It’s not good!”

“Brother Mu, are you also single? Do you wear colorful pants and big slippers? Do you buy soy milk and fritters in the morning personally?”

Li Mu, “…”

He coughed a few times and immediately said,

“No no… Although it’s a honey trap, we don’t have to let the female players take the risks.”

After saying so, he looked at Demacia from head to toe, rubbed his chin, and said,

“I remember that someone has acquired the Transfiguration skill.”

Demacia shuddered as he suddenly felt a chill in his back…

…

This was a dense virgin forest.

Huge trees covered the sky and the lush bushes made the forest that was already difficult to trek through even more complicated.

However, it was nothing to the oak guard.

Berserker was walking in the forest as if he was visiting his own back garden. From the left to the right on his shoulder, there were four elves in linen robes and wooden armor. Behind him… Demacia followed in a sweat.

These five people were the special attack team members selected by the players.

Apart from Demacia, the team was made up of namely Li Mu, Cuckoo Bird and two other players named Box Meal and Little Salty Meow.

Among these players, Li Mu and Little Salty Meow were of the magic system, while Demacia, Box Meal and Cuckoo Bird were of the strength system.

Originally, Li Mu planned to have five players who were good at stealth to form the team. However, because very few players had stealth skills, they had to settle for a less ideal configuration. They gave up the original plan and selected the players with relatively greater power and complementary abilities to form a death squad.

Li Mu had two skills called Curing Minor Injuries and Twining Vines. He was good at treatment and control. He was the commander of the team.

Little Salty Meow was a petite female player who had the rare illusionary skill–Transfiguration, which could change the appearance of the target for 20 minutes long.

Although Cuckoo Bird was a girl, she had practiced Taekwondo in reality and thus had exceptional melee capability. Besides, she had the skill called Sharp Ears. She could hear sounds from a long distance and detect any suspicious movement.

Box Meal was a quiet male player. He had no stealth or detection skills. But he had a remarkable detection ability, which was why he could discover a level nine forest python at an early stage.

As for Demacia, he had two skills called Whirlwind Slash and Tenacity. He could output a lot of damage while having a tanky exterior.

Hmm… All the players had discussed and decided that he would also play an important role of “bait.”

All the five players were at level ten.

After working out a plan, they set off on Berserker. But the oak guard refused to take Demacia, so this guy could only follow behind.

Other players watched their action through a live-stream and waited for the teleportation circle to be constructed.

Yes, live-stream.

Although the rate of time flowed differently in the world of Sagas than in the blue planet, it did not affect the players who logged in to the game to use the Internet through the game system. Other players could watch the live-stream launched by the special attack party on the Internet in the conventional way through the system window.

This was a new method the players had discovered. It was similar to YY and QQ audio of earlier years. But this was a video version. When hunting wild monsters in the past, some players used this method for individual reconnaissance.

When Eve discovered it, He was also amazed at the players’ tricky operation. So He turned on the live-stream in the space of His godhead and became one of the audience.

“We have arrived.”

Suddenly, the giant oak guard stopped.

He knelt down to send these people to the ground and said,

“We are less than one kilometer away from Florence. In order to prevent my identity being discovered by the goblin priests, I will not continue to approach. Act on your own discretion.”

After these words, he turned around silently and hid in the forest.

Demacia, who had a hard time catching up with Berserker, panted heavily as he leaned on a tree. He bent over to rub his sore knees, looked at the indifferent Berserker, and sighed.

“I say… It’s not necessary to be so… ha ha… I just came up with an idea… Your impression of me instantly became so bad that you won’t even let me get in the car.”

“Do you not know how bad your idea is?”

Cuckoo Bird glanced at him coldly.

The players watching the live-stream all ridiculed him.

“You can exercise more by running. Why don’t you run more?”

“Ha ha, Demacia, did Berserker’s impression of you went into the negatives?”

“Ha… I remember that this guy showed off his friendliness with Uncle B before. But it went bad for him overnight.”

“Ha ha ha! I just realize that NPCs consider goblins to be the most despicable intellectual creatures. Only you can come up with the idea that girls should lure the monsters with a honey trap. You deserve the dislike of NPCs. Ha ha ha!”

“Elves and oak guards are very proud.”

“Ha ha ha, ‘bait’ should work hard for his plan to work.”

“I’m looking forward to watching you lure monsters!”

“I’m looking forward +1”

“I’m looking forward +2”

Demacia’s face turned green as he looked at the flickering barrage of comments.

Cuckoo Bird did not continue to ridicule him. She listened quietly with her ear tilted to one side…

It was her skill–Sharp Ears.

“There are no other creatures nearby.”

She said a moment later.

Box Meal also shook his head after investigating the surrounding area.

The other people felt relieved. Li Mu looked around, took out a set of instruments Alice gave him to construct the teleportation circle and said,

“I think that the terrain here is pretty good. Let’s do some cleaning here and set up the teleportation circle. The one kilometer distance between us is fine. The risk of exposure will be too high if we get closer.”

After these words, he glanced at Demacia and said with a smile,

“You guys also begin to prepare. After we set up the teleportation circle, we will directly try to lure a goblin to test their strength.”

On hearing Li Mu’s words, Demacia immediately looked like a deflated ball. He stepped aside with fear, laughed drily for a few times and said,

“Brother Mu… That… You guys cannot be serious?”

“Didn’t you propose the plan yourself, Demacia?”

Little Salty Meow said while taking out a pale green dress from behind her back with a smile.

“Hurry and put it on. This was provided by the little sister Alice.”

Demacia’s face turned green as he looked at the little dress.

“Damn! Are you guys serious? Do you guys really want me to wear women’s clothes?! What I said was a honey trap! Not a reserve honeytrap! I’m a big man!”

“That is not a problem. My Transfiguration is ready to work its magic. You will look gorgeous.”

Little Salty Meow said with a smile.

Demacia, “…”

“I remember that your house has not been built yet?”

Cuckoo Bird, the captain of the players’ camp construction, asked lightly.

Demacia, “…”

“Do you really want the female players to take the risks?”

Box Meal frowned.

Demacia, “…”

The barrage of comments on the live-stream got even more crazy.

“Ha ha ha! Brave Demacia, hurry with that dress and turn into a brawny girl!”

“Come on, you will be a good man by wearing it!”

“This is a good idea you put forward. Ha ha ha ha!”

“Wear it quickly, or your home will become rotten poop. Ha ha ha…”

Demacia, “…”

Li Mu coughed twice and patted Demacia on the shoulder,

“Demacia, do it. Anyway, you have many lives. You have eight lives altogether including the three you get by receiving this task. Moreover, you are a man, who is afraid of neither death nor getting caught by goblins. The risk you are facing is much lower than if the girls are doing it. Ahem… If you are caught, you can commit suicide. If that doesn’t work, you can go offline immediately.”

Demacia, “…”

Wouldn’t a man risk his no-no zone too?!

Nevertheless, Demacia saw everyone’s expression hardening the longer he put off wearing the dress, so he finally relented and grabbed the dress with a sad face.

“I’ll go… I’ll go, okay?”

Saying so, he began to change clothes reluctantly.

“Don’t undress here. We don’t want the full moon showing up.”

Demacia, “…”

“Ha ha ha ha!”

“Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha…”

Laughter overwhelmed the screen of the live-stream…

Even Eve, who was watching the live-stream, laughed. But as He watched it, He became a little sad.

“That’s nice…”

“I want to have a body that can move freely…”

People did not cherish the things they have. Only once they lost them, did they find them valuable.

Without enough divine force, Eve was unfortunately not able to create a body that could contain His divine soul.
