"First bow to heaven and earth... Second bow..."

"What the hell are you doing to your mother, a geoduck?"

Chen Meng punched the Mo Dao swordsman on the head. As soon as Chen Meng came online today, he was flooded with forum posts from the two sisters, the Dragon Speaker and the Dragon Tamer.

But in her heart, the only wives she recognized were Freya...and Queen May and Miss Cat.

But before going online, Chen Meng took a look at the official website announcement and the latest strategy. The official website has clearly stated that "the pet system is already in the works, and it is expected to be officially launched after players have conquered the other two areas of Brand Island."

Pet system!

Chen Meng had wanted to catch a dragon to play with for a long time when he was killing monsters on Brand Island. Now the official website has finally announced the detailed plan of the pet system.

Although it is just a preview, it is enough for Chen Meng to drag his friends to the snowy area to open up a new area!

However, not long after she came online, before Chen Meng had the chance to talk about the matter of opening up the new land, the Mo Dao Swordsman threw an NPC in front of her.

"Where did you kidnap this girl from?"

Chen Meng looked at the NPC who was being tied up with ropes and thrown in front of him by the Mo Dao swordsman.

In most cases, players cannot touch the NPC in the Holy Spirit, let alone tie him up with a rope, but the color on this NPC's head is yellow, which means he is a neutral unit.

There are many things players can do with neutral units, and kidnapping these neutral units is the most basic operation.

"We didn't kidnap her. She showed up at the village gate on her own. After she learned that we were bandits, she tied herself up with a rope." Mo Dao Swordsman was not a novice player. Just by looking at the level above the NPC's head, he almost called his brothers to fight the final BOSS of the dungeon.

"She ran to the gate of the village and tied herself up? What kind of weird hidden mission is this?" Chen Meng said as he cast a reconnaissance spell on the female NPC.

'Crystal Hunter Sheral, Level: 53, Lord-level creature, HP 3132002/3132002'

"Turtle, can you f*cking tell me that a lord-level monster came to our village on its own initiative?" After Chen Meng looked at the specific data of this NPC, he found that she was not a low-level plot NPC, but a BOSS that could be forced into any copy and required a team of fifty people to kill.

Once this NPC becomes a hostile target, Chen Meng doesn't know whether the sixty or so fans in Black Wind Village can kill her as a team.

"Are you here? Swordsman, are you the Train King?"

"It's a good operation to bind the dungeon lord monster to the main city. The swordsman is awesome."

The players watching nearby also expressed their concerns about this... neutral NPC who came to them on his own initiative.

"Brother Meng, there must be some hidden mission for this NPC to come to our door on his own initiative." Mo Dao Jianke said that the netizens around him were all slandering him.

"Let me ask."

Chen Meng walked up to the crystal hunter named Shelar. From the outside, Shelar was dressed a bit like a shepherdess, a shepherdess who was just about to drive her sheep home, but was kidnapped by bandits who showed up halfway.

However, the shepherdess who was tied up by the bandits did not panic. Instead, she looked at the bandit leader Chen Meng who walked up to her with an expectant expression.

"Do you know where this place is?" Chen Meng began to immerse himself in the role of the King of Black Wind Village. After all, everything... was for the live broadcast effect.

"I know, the Black Wind Stronghold, you are the master here? If you are bandits, shouldn't you put me in jail next?" There was a hint of anticipation in her voice.

Chen Meng felt that if she moved out of the prison now, she would most likely roll in on her own initiative.

What the hell is this side story? 'A shepherdess with masochistic tendencies'

"Just tell me what you want." Chen Meng was also the type who would skip the plot dialogues. Only when talking to a few NPCs would she calm down and carefully read their dialogues and options.

This shepherdess was obviously not among them... and Chen Meng couldn't find a cage that could hold a level 50 lord NPC.

If Chen Meng really captured this shepherdess to be his wife, it would be like capturing a Godzilla and raising it in his own city. Who knows, one day Godzilla might burn down the city they had built with great difficulty.

"I don't want anything, I just want to stay here. I heard that you are still recruiting... wives to suppress the city. I think I can be qualified for this position." She continued to recommend her various advantages to Chen Meng.

Isn’t this ideological awareness too high

This was the first time Chen Meng had seen an NPC trying so hard to join the player camp, but when a level 50 lord took the initiative to throw himself into his arms, Chen Meng felt that there was something wrong.

"Ms. Dream! Stay away from her!"

Another NPC in the Black Wind Village, Bai Yu, had just returned from hunting at this time. The moment he saw the crystal hunter Shelar, he drew his longbow and aimed the arrow at Shelar's head.

"Your Majesty, is this... the Second and Third Madams fighting? Is this considered a fire in the backyard?"

"What are you talking about? Isn't the Third Madam Miss Cat?"

Chen Meng rubbed his brows to block out the rumors from the surrounding netizens. Bai Yu was now standing in front of him, with the longbow in his hand fully drawn.

Bai Yu is in a very nervous state now, Chen Meng can see it... The forehead of this elf is covered with cold sweat, as if in Bai Yu's eyes, the crystal hunter named Sheral is not a shepherdess, but a giant monster that is spewing flames.

"Bai Yu, do you have any interactive plot with her?" Chen Meng guessed that Bai Yu should also have some exclusive plot tasks, and now Bai Yu showed blatant hostility towards Shelar.

"I don't know her, but she is the chosen one of the gods in this world." Bai Yu tried his best to suppress his anger and said, "The gods in this world can do anything for their ruling status and believers, and these chosen ones are the executioners who practice the gods' dirty will!"

"Is this your exclusive plot dialogue? But why didn't I receive the mission? Sigh! Now is not the time to do your side quest! Bai Yu, put down your bow and arrow first."

Chen Meng actually wanted to leave now, and then gather his friends to conquer the snowfield map. Now the eight major guilds are planning to attack the snowfield. The snowfield map is now like a gold mine. The gold mine here of course refers to the various creatures and cubs on the island. Chen Meng now just wants to go pan for gold... and has no mood to do other side quests commissioned by NPCs.

Miss Cat’s side quest can be done, but Bai Yu’s side quest...bye.

"… "

Bai Yu slowly put down the longbow in his hand under Chen Meng's command. Shelar did not make any excuses for what Bai Yu said. She still looked at Chen Meng with an expectant look of "kidnap me away!"

"You, Crystal Hunter Shelar, right? I don't care what your background is, but I'll ask you what you can do." Chen Meng half-knelt in front of Shelar again and said, "We are going to the snowy area of this island to kill monsters and level up. Can you help us kill monsters?"

"My power is a tonic for the monsters on this island...so my attacks on the monsters on the island will only make them stronger. If they are spell thieves, I can help you repel them!" Shelar told Chen Meng truthfully the reason why the crystal hunters could not carry out the mission on this island alone.

The monsters infected with the crystal disease on Brand Island are much more physically fit than the Spell Thieves. The Spell Thieves cannot withstand the power of the God's Chosen and will die instantly. However, monsters like the Swift Dragons and Thunder Dragons are different. The Crystal Hunters are delicious supplements for the lord-level monsters on the island, even if the gods come.

"You can't help kill monsters, but you also buff them? I'll beat your mother." Chen Meng knew that a level 50 lord follower must have some limitations, but Chen Meng did not give up. She continued to ask Shelar, "What else can you do?"

The shepherdess thought for a long time and finally came up with a perfect answer. She looked at Chen Meng with her watery blue eyes.

"In terms of appearance, I don't think... I will lose to that elf." She said seriously.

Why are you competing with Bai Yu in beauty? The other person is a man!

Chen Meng really wanted to drag Queen Mei and Freya in front of her and say, "Give up! You can't beat my first and second wives in terms of beauty."

But is it possible that this NPC only has his face to show off

"Brother Meng, why not just recruit her? She's at least a level 50 lord follower. It will be so impressive if you tell others about it." The netizen next to him suggested.

"That's right, eh...it seems like there is this option as well."

When Chen Meng was considering whether to recruit her as the gatekeeper of Black Wind Village, the option of "submitting a recruitment request" appeared in the conversation options between Chen Meng and her.

"They really updated the recruitment system secretly!" Chen Meng knew that after the two sisters were recruited by the players, other players would definitely have the recruitment option when talking to other NPCs on the island.

Chen Meng touched his finger on the recruitment option, and a small prompt popped up when he touched the option.

'Crystal Hunter Shelar, recruitment requirements: None, base life must: one house, one bed, alien food x1000 units/day, base life secondary: unknown.'

What the hell

Chen Meng saw this line of data. The demand for houses and beds was normal, but the demand for food seemed a bit excessive. Chen Meng didn't know that the NPCs recruited to the camp had these demands.

So she quickly opened the attributes of her stronghold. Under the attributes that measured the quality of the stronghold, such as defense value, aesthetics, and greening value, there were three resource values: mineral reserves, wood reserves, and food reserves.

The food reserves of Black Wind Village are fifty-three, which is the smallest number among all the reserves. These fifty-three points were all contributed by Bai Yu's recent hunting.

'White Pearl Chicken Infected by Crystals X53' Contributor: Bai Yu.

If one of these fifty-three portions of chicken is used to make a dish, it would be enough for a normal person to have a meal, so this means... Sheral eats a thousand times more food than other NPCs in a day

Seeing this, Chen Meng looked at Sheral again.

"I really just want to live here, even if you put me in jail." Shelar said to Chen Meng with his pitiful big eyes.

"… "

Chen Meng grabbed Shelar's collar, brought her to the entrance of Black Wind Village and kicked her out.

The gate of the Black Wind Village also closed in response. Shelar, who was lying outside the Black Wind Village, could still vaguely hear Chen Meng shouting, "Friends, we are going to slay the dragon next! Get ready!"

The shepherdess or crystal hunter rested her cheek on the cold ground, looking at the closed gate of Black Wind Village, feeling endless sadness in her heart.
