At this moment, Princess Kate said, “Take my father back to Jinyao City first!”

“Yes, your Royal Highness!” Nick directly carried the City Lord on his back, and soon everyone returned to the City Lord’s Mansion of Jinyao City!

At this time, the princess looked at the dying king, and her eyes were red.

The physicians of Jinyao City expressed their helplessness one after another! Seeing the king’s injuries, they all shook their heads and said, “Princess, the City Lord seems to have been poisoned by fire-type poison. This poison has already infected His Majesty’s entire body!”

“Unless...” the physician said with some hesitation.

“Unless what?” The princess hurriedly asked.

“Unless there is the legendary Flame Flower!”

“However, Flame Flower is extremely rare. It can only grow in the corpse of a fire-type expert!”

“The corpse of a fire-type expert lies on the ground. His flesh and blood fuse with the ground and flowers slowly grow out. The flowers then pass through the heart of the fire-type expert and bathe in the power of fire. Only then can it grow into a Flame Flower!” A physician said slowly!

When the princess heard the conditions for the Flame Flower to grow, she also felt despair. Such harsh conditions were probably rare in the world!

The princess said to a knight, “Pass down the order. Whoever can find the Flame Flower will be greatly rewarded!”

At this moment, Lu Yuan stood out and said to Princess Kate, “Princess, I may have a way to find the Flame Flower!”

The princess looked at Lu Yuan and said, “Really? Can I trust you?”

“Of course!” Lu Yuan replied.

[Princess Kate has issued a hidden mission to you – find the Flame Flower to save the City Lord.]

[Mission Requirement]: Find the Flame Flower and save the City Lord of Jinyao City!

[Mission Rewards]: EXP increases 5000, reputation increases 3,000, gold coin increases 3000, favorability of Princess Kate increases 400, favorability of the City Lord increases 400, favorability of all residents in Jinyao City increases 100, mysterious gratitude of City Lord!

[Mission Failure]: EXP decreases 3000, reputation decreases 300, gold coin decreases 2,000, favorability of Princess Kate decreases 200, favorability of City Lord decreases 200, favorability of all residents in Jinyao City decreases 50!

[Mission Duration]: 24 hours!

“I’m going to be rich!” Lu Yuan was excited in his heart. In his previous life, he did not complete this hidden mission. Instead, it was discovered by others.

“I didn’t expect the reward for this hidden mission to be so generous!”

“I’m really lucky. I found the Flame Flower as soon as I arrived!”

“I’ll come back after I go out for a walk!”

Lu Yuan was excited in his heart. At the same time, he was also curious about what the mysterious gratitude of the City Lord was. If other ordinary rewards were so generous, wouldn’t this mysterious gratitude be something great?

“Princess, I’ll go out and look for the Flame Flower now!” Lu Yuan bowed to the princess and turned around to leave!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

They saw Lu Yuan walk out of the City Lord’s Mansion and directly ride his white horse out of the city, heading towards the Demon Flame Mountain Range!

After Lu Yuan came to the periphery of the Demon Flame Mountain Range, he started to kill monsters crazily. That mysterious woman also liked to kill monsters in the periphery. He wondered if he would be able to meet her this time.

“Last time, I used Shadow Following and was discovered by her. I can’t do anything to her even if I met her!” As he spoke, Lu Yuan threw out another skill and finished off a fiery tiger.

Lu Yuan was already at level 22. He did not need more than two moves to kill these fiery tigers on the outskirts. It was a little boring to kill them!

At this moment, a woman’s voice suddenly came from behind Lu Yuan, “Hello!”

“F*ck! “Lu Yuan was shocked!

The mysterious woman covered her mouth and laughed softly behind Lu Yuan.

“Are you the strongest player in the entire server, Lu Yuan?” The woman asked Lu Yuan with a smile.

“Who are you? Are you cheating? Why did the system announcement say that I was the first person to enter a level 20 main city, but you arrived earlier than me?” Lu Yuan asked three questions in a row.

However, the mysterious woman only smiled at Lu Yuan, and then slowly said, “I don’t know either.”

“How could you not know? Who are you lying to?” Lu Yuan continued to ask.

However, in the blink of an eye, the woman disappeared again.

Lu Yuan could only shake his head helplessly. He did not chase after her this time since he could not catch up anyway!

“It’s about time. Let’s go back and report!” Lu Yuan immediately stopped killing monsters and rode his little white horse back to Jinyao City!

Very soon, he arrived at the chamber of the City Lord of the City Lord’s Mansion once again. He took out the Flame Flower and instantly, a terrifying high temperature enveloped the entire chamber!

The physicians came forward one after another to observe, “That’s right, it’s exactly as described in the book!”

“It’s indeed the legendary Flame Flower!”

Lu Yuan placed the Flame Flower on the City Lord’s forehead. The City Lord’s expression was gradually returning to normal. The black and red fire-type poison was slowly transferred onto the Flame Flower. Not long after, the City Lord slowly woke up.

Seeing the City Lord slowly waking up, Princess Kate immediately expressed her gratitude to Lu Yuan excitedly.

After thanking him, the princess immediately ran to the side of the City Lord’s bed and asked the City Lord, “Father, are you alright?”

The City Lord slowly nodded and said, “Yes.”

“It was this Jinyao Knight who found the Flame Flower and saved you!” The princess said to the City Lord.

The City Lord slowly looked at Lu Yuan and said to Lu Yuan, “Brave Jinyao Knight, thank you for saving my life. I will never forget this kindness!”

Then, the City Lord gently raised his hand and said to Lu Yuan, “This is my thanks to you.” A white light directly entered between Lu Yuan’s eyebrows.

There was also a golden token floating in front of Lu Yuan!

[Congratulations on completing the hidden mission issued by Princess Kate – find the Flame Flower to save the City Lord ]

[Reward: 5,000 EXP, 500 reputation points, 3,000 gold coins, 400 favorability of Princess Kate, 400 favorability of the City Lord, 100 favorability of all residents of Jinyao City, City Lord’s mysterious gratitude!]

[The king’s mysterious gratitude]: Received a Knight’s Token, level increased by one level, all attributes increased by 5%, received 5 skill points!

[Knight’s Token]: Can have a Jinyao Knight Legion that belongs to oneself, become the great general of Jinyao City’s knights!

“F*ck! 5 skill points!” Lu Yuan was shocked, he did not think that this City Lord’s mysterious gift actually included skill points!

Moreover, he had become the great general of Jinyao City!

A stalk of Flame Flower in exchange for this was definitely a huge profit! Lu Yuan was excited in his heart!

Following that, Lu Yuan said excitedly to the City Lord, “Thank you, City Lord, for the reward.”

At this moment, Nick, who had been standing by the side, said, “Hmph! These demons actually dare to invade our Jinyao’s territory time after time. This time, they actually injured the City Lord. It’s time for them to pay the price!”

At this time, the king also replied, “Well, the dignity of our Jinyao City is inviolable!”

A murderous aura instantly filled the entire chamber!
