The outside of Novice Village is filled with level 1 rabbits, but at this time it is crowded with bustling people, often 5 or 6 people who follow the spawn point of the rabbit like thieves. As soon as the rabbit is spawned, it will be immediately attacked by countless short attacks. Dismember the body with swords and elemental balls.
After squeezing for a long time, Feng Xiao finally saw a lone rabbit. Feng Xiao quickly slashed it with a knife. At the same time, a message from the mind's eye appeared in his mind:
Rabbit: Level 1, HP 30, Skills: None. A group of rabbits with violent tendencies, beware of its big carrot.
With one strike, a red number of -6 appeared on the rabbit's head. The rabbit was attacked and immediately waved the big radish in his hand to fight back against Feng Xiao.
-10.
Critical hit! Feng Xiao was lucky enough to receive a yellow critical hit damage that was rare for a rabbit in ten thousand years, and his life was quickly cleared.
"Ding, player Fenghun has died. Do you want to return to Novice Village immediately to resurrect?"
"Resurrection..."
Feng Xiao was so depressed that he wanted to hit the wall. It was pitiful that he was determined to be the best in the game, but he was killed by the lowest level rabbit the first time he killed monsters... although it was because his health and defense were too low.
"Holy shit, I was actually killed by a rabbit. How did you do it, brother? I admire you so much..."
At the second before resurrection, Feng Xiao happened to hear someone saying that he was ready to die, and he suddenly wanted to die.
There was a flash of white light, and Feng Xiao reappeared in the Novice Village with a depressed face. He couldn't defeat monsters and upgrade. He couldn't afford to lose that person, so he should complete the mission first.
There are only a few houses in Novice Village, and there are only a few NPCs. At this time, it is surrounded by countless players on three floors and three floors outside. Feng Xiao roared sadly: It will take years and months to receive the mission.
Feng Xiao noticed that the only person no one greeted was a dry old man sitting against the wall. The old man's clothes were in tatters, his eyes were closed, and his hair and beard were piled on his head like a straw nest. At this moment, he was curled up motionless in the corner, like an ancient sculpture.
Feng Xiao's expression changed: "When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. The system should not arrange a useless NPC. Maybe this old man has some secrets." The more special NPCs in the game, the more likely they are to have hidden tasks. This is the experience of many years of gaming career.
Feng Xiao immediately ran over and said to the old man with a diligent look: "Hello, old sir, what can I do for you?"
The old man turned a deaf ear and didn't even move his eyebrows.
"Old sir, is there anything I can do for you?"
Still no response, could it be that he is deaf
"Old sir, would you like me to help you sit over there for a while..."
…
"Old sir, are you cold?"
"Old sir, there's a fly on your nose."
"Old sir..."
…
Feng Xiao had nothing else to do anyway, so he persisted in nagging in front of the old man for more than half an hour, and he had a strong tendency to fight him to the end.
Finally, the old man responded:
"Get out of here!!!"
This loud roar was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, making Feng Xiaozhen stunned and breaking into cold sweat.
"If you want to do something, go find Mrs. Ma in the room opposite!! Otherwise, unless you find the Chaos Holy Water, don't bother me! Get out now!!!"
Feng Xiao was startled and ran away quickly. If this weird old man got angry and people in Novice Village chased him, he would be dead.
Wait, what did he just say? Mrs. Ma opposite? Chaos holy water? Could it be a hidden mission? However, it seems that the task prompt does not appear.
Feng Xiao looked in the direction opposite the old man. There was a closed cabin there, but no one was sure if there was anyone inside. At least no player could enter it yet.
And what is Chaos Holy Water
Feng Xiao carefully returned to the strange old man and asked weakly: "Old man, what is the Chaos Holy Water?"
"roll!!!"
Fengxiao fled away.
"The brand of Shura and the true form of the saint actually appeared on the same person at the same time. It seems that the long-term seal has made my spiritual sense a little confused, and I actually had such a ridiculous illusion." Looking at Feng Xiao's running figure , the strange old man murmured words that others could not understand.
Feng Xiao came to the cabin and knocked on the door.
One minute…
Two minutes…
five minutes…
ten minutes…
"I don't believe you wouldn't open the door if there was really someone inside. Anyway, I have nothing else to do, so I'm going to spend the day with you." Feng Xiao thought fiercely.
Fifteen minutes later, the door was finally opened, and the head of a middle-aged woman poked out. The woman is about forty years old, her face is quite haggard, and her hair and clothes are a little messy.
"I'm sorry young man, I really have nothing to do here. Please leave." The woman's voice was very kind, but there was a hint of obvious anger and impatience in her words.
Feng Xiao was stunned and secretly thought that she thought I was a novice looking for a mission. No wonder she stayed behind closed doors. She must have been annoyed by those players before.
Feng Xiao quickly asked: "Hello, are you Mrs. Ma?"
Mrs. Ma was stunned and asked in surprise: "How do you know my name?"
Haha, there is a way! Feng Xiao quickly explained: "Hello Mrs. Ma, the old man across the street asked me to come to you. Is there anything I can do to help?" At the same time, he pointed at the old man over there who was holding up the corpse, and secretly made a bet in his heart. , bet on whether the old man’s reputation will work.
"Ah? Are you introduced by your benefactor? Please come in quickly. I'm really sorry for neglecting you just now." Upon hearing that it was the old man who sent her, Mrs. Ma's attitude immediately changed 180 degrees. He quickly pulled Feng Xiao into the house with an excited look on his face.
No, it's that easy? Could it be that the old man was really a character
The door was slammed shut, and Mrs. Ma turned around, without saying a word, looking straight at him, her scorching gaze making Feng Xiao's whole body go crazy.
Could it be that this middle-aged woman was dissatisfied with her desires and had evil intentions when she saw the handsome young man standing in the wind? ! When Feng Xiao thought of this, he was so horrified that he broke out in cold sweat. He was immediately prepared to run away if the situation went wrong. Being killed by a rabbit instantly was a small thing, but losing integrity was a big thing. Of course, um, beautiful women were definitely excluded.
Completely beyond Feng Xiao's expectation, Mrs. Ma fell to her knees with a plop and cried: "Warrior, you must save my man..."
Feng Xiao was startled and quickly helped Mrs. Ma: "What happened? If I can help, I will definitely help."
The forest is really big and there are all kinds of birds... There are even people who are kneeling down and begging for help.
After listening to Mrs. Ma's narration, Feng Xiao finally understood what happened.
NPCs in Novice Village generally cannot leave the village, but Mrs. Ma’s husband, Orion Ma, is an extremely curious person. After getting to know every corner of Novice Village, his biggest hope in life is to venture into the world outside Novice Village. After struggling, finally one day, the opportunity came.
Countless years of experiments by the village chief of Novice Village finally paid off, and he successfully produced 3 Unbounded Scrolls and 2 Return Scrolls of Novice Village. The Unbounded Scrolls can break through all restrictions and be randomly transmitted to the entire Tianlong Continent (Dianlong Continent: Huaxia District players). In addition to the game area, there are hundreds of areas such as Japan Continent, Koryo Continent, Meili Continent, Yingji Continent, and Fran Continent.). The Novice Village Return Scroll actually allows people to return to Novice Village instantly from any area. Each scroll can only be used once and disappears after use.
When Orion Ma found out, he happily went to the village chief and finally got an Unbounded Voucher and a Novice Village Return Voucher from the village head. Half a year ago, Ma Orion and the village chief crushed the Unbounded Scroll and traveled to Tianlong Continent.
The later result was that the two of them were transported to completely different places. When the village chief found Ma Orion one day, he could no longer speak or see. Except that he could breathe, he was no different from a dead person. Using modern medicine, he could not speak or see. That is to say, he became a vegetative state.
The village chief was so shocked that he had to find the city return scroll on Ma Orion, and then the two of them teleported back to Novice Village. But no one in Novice Village knew what was wrong with Ma Orion. Finally one day, the strange old man noticed the situation of Orion Ma and told everyone that Orion Ma must have encountered a powerful dark monster, his soul was deprived of him, and he will die in a week.
NPCs are different from players. Players can be resurrected after death, and at most they will lose levels and equipment. After an NPC dies, it will disappear completely unless it has powerful resurrection skills. Even if the system generates a new NPC after death, it will be completely different from the original one.
In the end, the strange old man cast a wonderful water magic to protect Ma Orion in a water spirit, which could protect him from death for a year. However, if Ma Orion's soul cannot be retrieved and attached to the body again within a year, even if the Saint Even top-grade drugs can't save him.
As for who the strange old man was, Mrs. Ma didn't know. She only knew that he was already in Novice Village when she was born. He looked slovenly every day and rarely talked to anyone.
"Warrior, can you please help me find my man's soul?"
"Ding, player Fenghun, Mrs. Ma is asking you to help retrieve the soul of Orion Ma. Mission period: half a year. Mission penalty: None. Do you accept the mission?"
Feng Xiao was shocked and didn't know how to answer, because this was simply an impossible task.
Not to mention where Ma Orion was killed by what monster, no one knows. Even if his soul can be found... can the soul be seen? Can you touch it? What to take with you
To put it another way, even if you find the monster, kill it and find the soul of Ma Orion, how can you return to Novice Village
There is only one way for players to return to Novice Village from Tianlong Continent, which is to lower their level below 10.
A monster that can deprive people of their souls is extremely powerful without even thinking about it. Even if you find it and want to kill it, you don't know how many levels it will take. Will someone abandon their long hard training and commit suicide to return to the novice village just for a novice village mission? Unless that person is a fool.
Is Feng Xiao a fool? Probably not.
"Accept." Under Madam Ma's sad but hopeful gaze, Feng Xiao finally couldn't bear to hit her, and chose to accept with a wry smile. There was no punishment for the task anyway, and it was impossible to see Madam Ma after telling her about Novice Village. If you don't, you won't feel guilty.
