"Okay, I accept your challenge." Arya who has been contemplating for a while suddenly agreed with the challenge.
"You agree?" BlackApple couldn't believe it. One must know that to kill 1000 Two-Headed Turtles for over 2 hours is just a waste of time. If one moves to a higher leveling map, they will level up several times in 2 hours. However, if one is stuck at the level 10 map killing the Two-Headed Turtles only, their progress speed will diminish tremendously.
"eL it is a waste of time accepting his challenge, we should move to a high-level map after reaching level 11. We can join any guild we want later. No need to waste time on this map." YellowRose talked to Arya in private mode to avoid any unnecessary attention.
"If another player asks me to accept this challenge, I will instantly decline. For him? Don't judge the book by its cover, there is something different with this guy." Explained Arya.
"But…" YellowRose couldn't believe her best friend's words.
"Of all the people, you are the only one who knew about my ability. I have a six sense remember?" Arya was smiling looking at her best friend.
YellowRose couldn't deny her best friend's ability. She was born with amazing intuition and nobody knows it even her parents. At first, she was skeptical when she told her about it.
However, gradually, with so many coincidences and events happening around them, she accepted that her best friend is one of the most gifted people in the world.
Seeing that YellowRose didn't argue with her friend, BlackApple has to agree with this challenge. He wanted to play along with these two beautiful girls, so he had no choice.
"Since the two young ladies agreed to play your game, I have no choice but to tag along. Can't let two pretty ladies suffer, can't I?" With no shame, BlackApple made a 180-degree U-turn from his previous remarks.
Zhang Wei was just smiling. The guy in front of him had made many rude and shameless remarks without restraint. The first time he met this guy, the guy gave a terrible vibe. Gradually, after knowing him more, he is just like any other guy, just a bit more shameless.
"Okay, with everyone agreeing to this challenge, let us begin." Without waiting any longer, Zhang Wei hit the nearest Two-Headed Turtle. He had around 2 hours and 32 minutes to complete his quest of killing 1000 Two-Headed Turtle.
Two-Headed Turtles.
HP 1300
Attack 25
Def Reduce 50% of any incoming attack
Agi 1
Base experience 200.
Zhang Wei hit the Two-Headed Turtle and could only give 21 damages, way too low compared to his actual maximum damage of 42. This Two-Headed Turtle has a high defense value of around 50% damage reduction. He alone needed to hit around 62 times to kill the Two-Headed Turtle with 1300 hp.
However, with his teammates' help, they could kill it a lot faster. Arya and YellowRose attack damage were way higher than Zhang Wei's attack. Both of them bought a level 7 beginner sword with 15 basic damage, giving them 29 attacks (attack) damages.
With Zhang Wei's steady control over any monsters, they skipped buying many health potions. They use most of their coins to buy a level 7 beginner sword. As a result, their attack damage was higher compared to Zhang Wei.
Meanwhile, BlackApple who is a swordsman could only damage the Two-Headed Turtle with 12 points on every hit. Looking at his own low attack damage, BlackApple couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
Even the two young girls were capable of tripling his damage output. How on earth was he going to impress these 2 pretty girls with his abysmal damage? From now on, he promised himself to increase his STR on every level up.
All of their combined attack output was 91, so they needed around 15 seconds to find and kill each Two-Headed turtle. This kind of speed will surely fail Zhang Wei's quest, so he used the poison potion.
Zhang Wei coated his beginner knife with the poison potions and his damage triples. Since the Two-Headed Turtle is an animal type of monster, poison works well against them.
With their new total damage of 133 per hit, they could kill the Two-Headed Turtle in just 10 seconds. This shocked all his teammates. BlackApple especially looked down on Zhang Wei's neutral class, but in the end, his attack damage was 6 times lower than Zhang Wei. How could he believe this? The guidebook stated that the neutral class was among the worst class to pick.
Did the writer of the guidebook made a mistake? Or did he read a fake guidebook? He wanted to ask the guy in front of him but, his pride won't allow him. In the end, BlackApple decided to observe Zhang Wei for more information.
After killing the 18th Two-Headed Turtle in 6 minutes, Zhang Wei leveled up. He immediately used all his points into STR stat again. As a result, his new attack damage is 63.
"What did you do? You attack suddenly triples." Arya who has been using her stat points and weapons on pure damage oriented couldn't believe it after losing to Zhang Wei.
"It was easy, I just coated my knife with poison and it works wonderfully against this monster." Explained Zhang Wei with a smile.
He wanted to share the poison with his party members but he only had a few of them. Not enough for the quest's 2 hours duration. If he knows that he will meet the NPC, he will use all his coins to buy the poisonous bottle.
The merchant selling the poison potion was hidden inside one of the buildings in Azfield Town, and most players couldn't find this NPC without someone guiding them. He wanted to share his poisonous potion to increase the attack power of the team, but he decided not to. What will happen if suddenly they stop killing the Two-Headed Turtles? He will fail the quest!
"Don't worry, I will tell you all the NPC locations after we complete this challenge." Zhang Wei does not want to monopolize this information. Eventually, players will be able to find out about this special NPC.
They continue whacking the Two-Headed Turtles. Soon Arya followed by YellowRose and BlackApple was hit by a bolt of energy, showing they have leveled up to level 10. As soon as BlackApple leveled up, he immediately added his STR using all his available stat points.
Hence his previous damage points of 12 increased to 16. Meanwhile, both Arya and YellowRose attack damage increased to 33. Now, their total damage was 16 + 33 + 33 + 81 = 163. Before they needed around 10 seconds to kill a Two-Headed Turtle, but now they only need around 8 seconds.
As a result, their base experience grew steadily. Zhang Wei who took the role as a tanker had an easy job, even with only 1 agility, it was almost impossible for the Two-Headed Turtle to land a hit on him.
It only took them around 5 minutes to kill 21 Two-Headed Turtles. Zhang Wei leveled up to level 10. Like before, Zhang Wei added all his stat points into STR. The ability to create a party will be granted to level 10 and above players. Since Zhang Wei reached level 10, he created a party for them called "ZWParty". He invited all of them into the party, sharing equally the monster loot and experiences.
After 2 hours and 25 minutes, they killed over 1000 Two-Headed Turtles. It was a close one, they almost failed to complete the challenge. Nobody should be able to complete this quest without early planning. Without saying any more words to his teammate, Zhang Wei ran back to the NPC Newbie location.
"KheMeia, where are you going?" BlackApple, who has been unfriendly to Zhang Wei suddenly asked him in party mode (only the party member can see the message).
Previously, he hated Zhang Wei so much. First, he rejected him to form a team. Second, he embarrassed himself in front of the 2 pretty girls. In addition to that, he lost his self-confidence after seeing Zhang Wei's skill way above him.
However, after teaming up with the guy for almost 3 hours, he found himself in a very favorable situation. He is playing E2.0 with 3 expert players that he has never met before.
What was more surprising was, they didn't seem to mind his previous rude and embarrassing remarks. They didn't even kick him out of the party. Experts who didn't mind this kind of thing are almost non-existent.
Any player with a decent brain will try to make friends with these experts. They have carried him, a casual player since the beginning. His contribution to the team was abysmal. The team can pick up any random player to join them without a problem. So, he started being friendly and polite to these expert players.
"Continue leveling, I will come back soon." Replied Zhang Wei.
Soon Zhang Wei reached the NPC location.
He started a conversation with the NPC Newbie.
NPC Newbie: Welcome back player, did you complete the quest? Yes / No.
Zhang Wei: Yes.
NPC Newbie: Where is your proof?
This is where most of the players failed to get the quest S-Rank reward even though they have killed 1000 Two-Headed Turtles. What kind of proof does this NPC want, there was no mention in the quest challenge. However, who is Zhang Wei? He is a player from the future!
The quest will give,
S-Rank reward for completing the quest with 1000 or over Two-Headed Turtle tails.
A-Rank Reward with 800 - 999 Two-Headed Turtle tails.
B-Rank Reward with 500 - 799 Two-Headed Turtle tails.
He already prepared 1000 turtle tails as proof. He alone was unable to collect the 1000 turtle tails, thus he had asked his party members to give him their turtle tails before.
Zhang Wei: Here are the 1000 turtle tails as proof.
NPC Newbie: Well done and congratulation player Zhang Wei. You have completed the quest with 2 minutes left. Quest completion rate: S-Rank (Superb Rank).
NPC Newbie: Quest Reward, all basic stat points increase by 3, level increase by 3, Hp increase by 50, Mp increase by 25.

The quest rewards mesmerized even for Zhang Wei. He leveled up 6 times!
