Chapter 1170: Lend Me Your Head
<System Notification: You have accepted the job skill quest, Saint Alice’s Favour. Quest level: A
Quest content: Find the fallen Apostle, Leon, and kill him.>
“Leon? This name looks familiar…”
Seeing the quest content, Wang Yu was shocked for a bit then reacted by turning to ask Shroom Devil King, “Isn’t this Leon a Light Apostle? Why has he became a fallen one?”
Shroom Devil King was trembled upon hearing those words so she quickly clarified, “I… I don’t know. Brother Bull, you must have mistaken him.”
What a joke. Saint Alice already disliked Shroom Devil King for being from the Dark Faction. If she admitted that she was looking for the NPC which was a fallen Apostle, she would be killed on the spot.
No matter how, she was weaker. Even though Saint Alice was paralysed, she was a god-tier BOSS with some power. Shroom Devil King was not an idiot so, of course, she did not admit.
However, just as Shroom Devil King was trying to stay away, Saint Alice suddenly nodded and said, “You are right, it is that Leon!”
Upon mentioning Leon, Saint Alice’s originally divine-looking face looked disturbed. She angrily said, “Leon is a betrayer who used my trust for him to betray God and justice. He turned the victory which belonged to God into this chaos and even I…”
Saint Alice sighed upon mentioning this and said, “Even I was badly injured by him and cannot move. If not for God’s protection, I would also be…”
Well… Listening to these, Wang Yu roughly understood what happened. Basically, it was a corny story about trust and betrayal. The female lead was Saint Alice, the male lead was Leon and Hermit was probably just a calefare.
Hence, Wang Yu asked for the gossip, “What is your relationship with Leon? Such that you trusted him so much.”
“Hmph!” Saint Alice stared at Wang Yu then coldly said, “None of your business!”
“F*ck…”
From Saint Alice’s reaction, it was not hard to tell that Hermit was really just a calefare… No wonder he got along so well with Simba. The two of them were both legendary back-up plans.
Wang Yu could not help but laugh and asked, “Do you remember Hermit?”
“What Hermit??” Saint Alice was perplexed.
“He is my Teacher! The one you gave the cross to…” Wang Yu said.
“Oh,” Saint Alice suddenly recalled and said, “That human! He is called Hermit? What a weird name.”
“…”
Hearing Saint Alice’s response, Wang Yu’s heart suddenly beat harder.
Damn it, it seemed like things were not as simple as Hermit said. Simba was the back-up but at least his goddess remembered his name and had the chance to sacrifice for her. In Hermit’s case, he was pitiful as Saint Alice did not even remember his name.
Since Saint Alice and Hermit were strangers, then it was highly unlikely that Saint Alice would carry Hermit’s notes on her like a treasure.
At the thought of this, Wang Yu carefully asked, “Do you remember if that human passed you a notebook?”
“Notebook? What notebook?” Saint Alice was still equally perplexed.
“No notebook?” Wang Yu squinted and stared at her reply, “Since you don’t have the notebook then how are you going to reward us for helping you?”
“Reward?”
Saint Alice paused for a while then condescendingly said, “You are indeed a human, wanting to be rewarded for helping a god do something. Did I say I will reward you?”
“Erm…” Wang Yu opened the quest window and indeed… This quest he just accepted had no rewards.
“F*ck!”
Wang Yu saw it and blurted a vulgarity.
Damn it, so this woman wanted them to work for free! Luckily, he asked; if not, he would not even know he was being played by the game designer.
Seems like from then on, he would reconsider quests without specific rewards. This was really an unexpected trap.
A badly injured useless NPC without rewards and yet, she could still be so angry. This woman was really sick of living.
By then, Wang Yu naturally did not let her have her way. After some thought, Wang Yu asked Saint Alice, “Do you know where Leon is?”
“At the Dark Temple.” Saint Alice said, “That betrayer is also badly injured so he needs the protection of the temple. The Dark Temple is at the west of the Light Temple.”
“I see!” Wang Yu nodded and said, “I don’t belong to the Dark Temple. How should I gain his trust?”
“You aren’t but she is!” Saint Alice pointed at Shroom Devil King and said, “Get her to kill Leon then bring his head back to me.”
“Her?” Wang Yu looked at Shroom Devil King and said, “She can’t!”
Not just because Shroom Devil King did not have the ability. Even if she did… Shroom Devil King was not part of his quest so obviously, she was not the key to it.
“Then what are you going to do?” Saint Alice asked curiously.
Wang Yu smiled then said calmly, “When I was young, I heard a story about Jing Ke who wanted to assassinate the Qin Emperor. To gain the trust of the Qin Emperor, he borrowed something from the Emperor’s enemy Fan Yuqi.”
“What item?”
“Fan Yuqi’s head!”
“What?” Saint Alice’s face changed upon hearing his words.
Before Saint Alice reacted, Wang Yu did a [Flash] and appeared behind Saint Alice. He clasped his fingers together with his fingers acting as a knife, he poked it strongly into Saint Alice’s broken wings on her back.

Instantly, a huge injury value jumped up above Saint Alice’s head.
Wang Yu guessed right. A severely injured Saint Alice was just a paper tiger. He just had to attack her weakest spot and could cause millions of HP damage.
Saint Alice did not think Wang Yu would suddenly attack her so in defence, she retaliated with her broken sword.
However, Saint Alice was a half paralysed person who could barely move so her speed was incomparable to Wang Yu’s.
Wang Yu lowered his head and turned in front of Saint Alice. With a flip of his hand, a dagger appeared and he stabbed it into her throat.

Injury values emerged again and Saint Alice shifted to lift her hand as she began reciting to start a magic spell.
Being attacked close up by Wang Yu, a Pugilist, and yet, she dared to recite her magic spell. It seemed like Saint Alice had lost her mind. Wang Yu did not hesitate and just stabbed the dagger into her mouth.
Saint Alice’s reciting stopped abruptly.
Well, the badly injured Saint Alice had greatly reduced attributes. Wang Yu did not know how much damage her magic could do but based on her movements, it would at most be of a normal level 40 to 50 BOSS.
When Wang Yu was level 30, he could already torture a level 50 ancient BOSS. Now that he was level 60, dealing with a cripple like this was an easy feat.
Under Shroom Devil King’s jaw drop, in a few moves, Saint Alice was beaten into a ray of white light by Wang Yu and was sent to heaven to reunite with her master.
