Moments later, the radiant light surrounding the Elder Tree began to fade.
The Elven Queen stepped forward at once, her face full of concern.
"Alice, what task did the Elder Tree assign to you?"
Alice's expression remained calm, though a subtle trace of bitterness flickered in her eyes.
"The Star Upgrade Quest granted by the Elder Tree is classified as an SSS-tier difficulty task," she replied softly. "The first requirement is to collect ten rare skill books. The second is to complete ten Hell Mode underground labyrinths—and break the current fastest-clear records."
Hearing that, the Elven Queen let out a soft sigh of relief.
The Elven race had endured for tens of thousands of years. Their vaults contained stockpiles of rare items and treasures, enough to stack into mountains.
So what were ten rare skill books? Hardly an issue.
As for the second part—completing Hell Mode labyrinths? That wasn't too worrying either.
