Since the system became my girlfriend

Chapter 49 Assassination Mission

After obtaining the magic energy ring, Su Rui immediately equipped it. Since it was a pick-up bound item, he couldn't sell it for money.

After equipping the seven-colored growth ring, Su Rui's attributes improved again. Then, carrying the last letter, he headed straight for the cathedral in the center of Xuanwu City.

"Respected hero, it is not the church's opening time now. Please come back to pray later." An NPC at the church entrance stopped Su Rui. The church is not open all day; players are only allowed to enter during special times.

“I’m not here to pray, I’m here to find someone,” Su Rui said.

"Who are you looking for?" the NPC asked.

“I’m looking for His Excellency the Archbishop!” Su Rui said.

"Are you looking for Archbishop Griffin?" the NPC asked.

“Yes!” Su Rui nodded.

"Is there anything important you need?" the NPC asked again, seemingly unwilling to inform Su Rui unless it was something important.

"I've detected the presence of the undead; I need to report this to the Archbishop!" Su Rui said immediately.

"I see! Please wait a moment!" Upon hearing Su Rui mention the undead, the NPC immediately dared not delay. He quickly entered the Holy See and returned about two minutes later.

"Honorable hero, the archbishop is waiting for you. Please follow me!" The NPC gestured for him to enter.

"Okay!" Su Rui nodded and followed the NPC into the church.

Upon entering the church, one is greeted by a spacious hall, brightly lit, where a clergyman in a red robe is praying before the statue of God.

Su Rui stopped about two meters behind the man and waited quietly. After about two minutes, the priest finished his prayer and slowly turned around. He then said to Su Rui, "Dear warrior, I heard that you have detected the aura of the undead. Is that true?"

“Your Excellency Archbishop, that is indeed the case. I discovered the presence of the undead in a distant village, and I also found this letter.” As Su Rui spoke, he handed the bandit’s letter to Archbishop Griffin.

After Griffin took the letter and opened it, his expression immediately turned serious.

"The Moraka Brotherhood's code! Where did you find this letter?" Griffin's expression was very serious.

"It was like this..." Su Rui described the situation at the bandit camp at that time.

"These guys are still doing these despicable experiments!" Griffin said angrily after hearing Su Rui's description.

"Archbishop, what does this letter say?" Su Rui asked curiously.

“This is a letter of communication. Whoever holds this letter can represent the members of the Moraka Brotherhood to meet that evil wizard!” Griffin said.

"An evil wizard?" Su Rui was taken aback.

“Yes, he was a very evil wizard. He not only studied dark magic, but also used corpses and other materials to make puppets and summon demons!” Griffin said.

"So what do you plan to do?" Su Rui asked.

“This wizard must be eliminated, or countless innocent people will be harmed by him!” Archbishop Griffin said.

"Are you going to wipe him out now?" Su Rui continued to ask. It wasn't that he disliked the evil wizard that much; he just wanted to get all the information Griffin had to say as soon as possible and finish the mission. After all, Griffin hadn't given him the reward yet!

“I can’t go, and neither can the knights and priests of the church. This wizard is very cunning; he will definitely run away once he senses us approaching,” Griffin said.

"So what are your plans?" Su Rui asked.

“Dear warrior, would you do me a favor?” Griffin suddenly asked Su Rui.

"Of course!" How could Su Rui possibly say no at this point? This was clearly triggering the mission's rhythm!

“Great! I hope you can take this letter, impersonate a member of the Moraka Brotherhood, go to see that wizard, and then kill him with this holy water-soaked dagger when he's not looking!” Griffin said to Su Rui.

“Archbishop, my strength is insignificant… I’m afraid…” Su Rui frowned. Of course, he wouldn’t give up this mission. Saying this was just a way to get more benefits.

“Don’t worry, the dagger I gave you is lethal to him. Once you stab him in the chest, he will surely die! If you can kill him, I will give you a generous reward,” Griffin said.

"Alright then, I might give it a try!" Su Rui nodded.

"Ding! Mission Update: Assassinate the Evil Wizard!"

Assassinate the evil wizard: Archbishop Griffin wants you to travel to the Ghost Forest and kill the evil wizard Warwick with a dagger dipped in holy water!

Mission objective: Kill Warwick!

Quest Level: 12

Danger/Difficulty: High!

Quest Rewards: 1500 Experience Points! 500 Church Reputation! 50 Silver Coins!

Special Rewards: 1000 Experience Points! 200 Church Reputation! Boots of Holy Faith! (These special rewards are only available if the quest is completed within 30 minutes of being accepted!)

"Wow! It's time-limited!" Su Rui exclaimed in surprise after looking at the task panel. If he didn't try to seize the time, the reward for this task would be quite ordinary. Although 1,500 experience points were not bad, they weren't that tempting for a task with such high difficulty.

However, if you can complete the task within the time limit, you'll get 2,500 experience points, 700 church reputation points, and at least a piece of equipment of green quality. This task is definitely worth trying!

"Ding! You have received a contact message from the Moraka Brotherhood!"

"Ding! You have obtained a silver-plated dagger soaked in holy water!"

A silver-plated dagger soaked in holy water (Main hand weapon, dagger, blue quality)

Attack Damage: +5

Equipment: Increases your damage against evil creatures by 1000!

Equipment: Your attacks will poison evil creatures, dealing 300 holy damage per second and inflicting a spell-dispelling effect!

Equipment level: 10

Equipment time limit: 59:48

At this moment, Su Rui had an extra mission weapon in his backpack. This item was limited to one hour. If Su Rui failed to complete the mission after one hour, it would disappear into thin air. If Su Rui could complete the mission before the dagger disappeared, the dagger would be taken back by the system when he turned in the mission.

"Let's go, let's do the quest first!" After equipping the quest dagger, Su Rui headed straight for the Ghostly Forest according to the quest map. Because he was in a hurry, he didn't have time to change his class.

Although not changing jobs would greatly affect Su Rui's combat power, for this mission, even if Su Rui changed jobs, he still wouldn't be able to defeat that wizard. His only means of victory was that dagger soaked in holy water, so whether or not he changed jobs now wouldn't have much of an impact on him.
