<h4>Chapter 241 Investigation (4)</h4>


    We moved further and further away from the river as we came closer to the source.


    But before we reached it, I suddenly received a notification from the system.


    When I received this notification, I immediately had our group stop. Then after giving the excuse that I needed to check something, I headed off into the forest alone so that I could see what this notification was about.


    When I saw what was written in the notification, I revealed a strange smile.


    That was because I had already expected this to be a quest, but the contents of the quest were…too strange.


    After all, this was a side quest that I had never seen in all my time ying this game.


    In the game, I had already visited Bright Water City countless times and had done every quest that should have been avable here. But this was my first time seeing this kind of quest.


    [Side Quest] Destroy the undead horde


    Bright Water City is being gued by an undead horde raised by the demons. Please defeat this horde using any method of your choosing.


    Reward: Intermediate Reward Pack


    An undead horde, this was not something that I had expected nor did I want to deal with.


    After all, undead were the hardest kinds of monsters to deal with in the game.


    One might think that it was the powerful dragons that were considered the hardest monsters to deal with, but it was actually these undead. That was because of one simple reason, because they were very hard to kill.


    These undead had a very special kill condition which wasn''t what one would think it was…well, it was rted to the head, but it was different from just smashing the head in.


    Instead, it was destroying the small core that was inside the head of each of the undead.


    Or at least that was how the lore exined it.


    The real truth, which was something that had been found after someone dived into the game code, was that there was a small hit box programmed on the head of the undead.


    They should have had a normal hitbox that covered the entire head, but because of one coding error, it created a small and random hitbox for each of the undead mobs.


    This should have been an easy fix…but thepany had decided to create this lore for the undead instead of patching this out of the game…


    This was one of the dark spots on thispany''s prestige, but there weren''t any perfect games out there.


    The game itself was still considered the best for the genre, so even if there was this annoying mistake, people still yed it.


    But now that this game had be real life…would the undead still have the same annoying trait as in the game.


    There were many things that had been different from in the game, so I couldn''t help wondering if this was one of them. It would certainly be easier for us if this was one of the traits that were different…


    But I didn''t have much hope for this.


    I just hoped that we would be able to take care of the undead horde without a problem.


    At the same time, I couldn''t help looking at the part of the quest description that said ''any method of your choosing''. Did that mean that there were other ways to take care of the undead that we didn''t know of?


    If there were…that would be much easier than smashing a certain and random part of each undead''s head…


    Once I had finished sorting out my thoughts, I went back to the group who all looked at me with curious looks.


    I took a deep breath and said, "It''s a horde of undead that is waiting for us in front of here."


    Shaka knitted his brows, but Ronnie and Ron both revealed looks of shock and disbelief.


    They looked at me as if they were trying to figure out if I was joking or not, but they could see how serious I was which filled them with even more shock.


    After a bit of silence, Ronnie asked in a slow voice, "How, how do you know this? Why are you so certain about this?"


    I revealed a bitter smile when I heard this since there wasn''t anything that I could say in response to this. After all, I couldn''t just tell her that I had a magical system that told me these things.


    So I just said with a serious look, "I have my ways."


    I tried to act as vague and mysterious as possible. This would be convincing in this world of magic and strange powers.


    Ronnie looked at me with a look of doubt still before saying, "Alright, if you say so."


    I just gave a shrug and said, "Just wait a bit and you''ll see in a bit."


    Ronnie revealed a strange look when she heard this.


    Ron had been silent the whole time, but he had been seriously looking at Zwein the entire time.


    Unlike Ronnie, he had his lifetime of experience to draw on. He had seen many different people, so he could read people much better than Ronnie.


    He could see the seriousness that came from Zwein, so he hadn''t doubted him. He just wanted to figure out what Zwein was depending on to be this certain.


    But before they could say anything else, they suddenly heard a moaning sound.


    As soon as they heard this, they immediately hid in the bush and looked in the direction of this sound.


    To no one''s surprise and to their surprise, they found that there was an undead that was wandering around, proving Zwein''s ims.


    Both Ronnie and Ron looked at me with incredulous looks, but Ipletely ignored it as I focused on the undead.


    I was seeing if there were any others that were with this undead.


    It seemed like this was just a straggler that had broken off from the main horde…


    That meant that this was a chance!
