Defeat Midas

The chief can't have a perfect solution. What were they doing? I don't know but there was light shining everywhere and they seemed to be performing a ritual. We need to stop that? There are things I can do and things I cannot do. I believe in this case, it is the latter.

What? You want to go? You're crazy. Midas is different from other Vipers. Still you want to fight him? Are you going to kill him?
Okay, okay. Go to the <HFFFA7272>Golden Road<HFFFFFFFF> and defeat <HFFFA7272>Viper King Midas<HFFFFFFFF> if you can. If you succeed, go to <HFFFA7272>Chief Rembrandt<HFFFFFFFF> at the <HFFFA7272>center of the village<HFFFFFFFF>.

It would be impossible. It was difficult for a guard like me, do you think you could do it? Well, go to the <HFFFA7272>Golden Road<HFFFFFFFF>, defeat the <HFFFA7272>Viper King Midas<HFFFFFFFF>, and then go to <HFFFA7272>Chief Rembrandt<HFFFFFFFF> at the <HFFFA7272>center of the village<HFFFFFFFF>.

Oh, you've defeated Midas! As Midas was at the center of the ritual, with his death, the ritual has failed. Good job. But the celebration is short lived.
I'm worried about what lays ahead, though I am relieved the quest your teacher was worried about has ended in success.
