Vol 1 Chapter 8 (1/2)
Chapter 8: Fighting the wolf!
Further ahead, finally the number of players sharply fell, and he proceed ahead until he did not see any other figures of players. This was level 5 monster area and all the monsters from level 5 onwards take the initiate to attack. Since the VR game was opened just a moment ago and was in initial stage, ordinary players should not visit these forbidden areas. Without minimum of level 3 players’ party, without a doubt ordinary players couldn’t survive here, single one of them was nothing but a fodder.
Ye Tian Xie advance a step, he just barley stepped into the monsters territory, suddenly from the corner of his eyes he saw a single weak flash of person silhouette. He turned his body to look at that place which stunned him as he saw a single person unexpectedly sitting on right hand side of the bush. She sat by a tree and her body was excessively dried-up, thin and small. Also her face was as dried up as bark of tree, her whole body resembled a tree and she seems to mix with the surroundings which made even Ye Tian Xie hard to notice her.
Single skinny old lady……..is she NPC of this world? Ye Tian Xie walked towards her.
“Is there anything I can help you with?” he squeeze out a deformed gentle smile on his face and asked. If his question was straightforward it would be like this, “all the mission you have, hand over to me!”
After he finish speaking, at once his expression changed back into sluggish. He noticed that old lady was sitting cross-legged on the ground motionless. Her legs were bare and the exposed part was unexpectedly appeared to be dull grey in color.
Petrified…….rapidly in his brain this two word appeared. [石化 means petrified, 2 words/character]
“Core energy of this world——-eternal moment of the destiny is gone, do not know where it drift and fall, without the power of eternal moment of destiny, the destiny tower seal is finally collapsing. All of the 8 archfiend escaped, spreading of magic gas outside started to affect all the land which caused even the docile animals to become violent……..adventurer from different world, is it possible to a.s.sist me? I need 10 wolf eyes….but my body is sealed here and cannot move. Are you willing to help me?”
“Ding…….sealed old lady requested you to gather 10 wolf eyes. Mission cla.s.s: ordinary, Mission time limit: nil, Mission reward: unknown.”
“I accept.” Without any hesitation he accepted the mission. Although this mission was ordinary cla.s.s but the reward was ‘unknown’ which made him little bit interested. In the initial stage, there are many things remain unexplained in this mysterious world. And all the explanations are concealed within game, this was what his sharp intuition which he had developed by playing VR games for many years told him.
“Ding….you have accepted the request of sealed old lady….”
“Can you tell me why your legs become like this?” Ye Tian Xie did not immediately leave to hunt wolf rather squat down and asked her with a kind and gentle face. In the explanation of the mission, the word ‘unknown’ had made him interested therefore he was also greatly interested in the name of this old lady. At <destiny> world, all the people have their own independent thought. But he had full 10 points in charms and unlikely to add many points later so he made great effort to try to know what the reward was from this old lady.
“Youngster, you should go. Some matters not knowing beforehand is better.” Old woman replied coldly.
“That……if it is inconvenient to move then I can carry you to the beginner village, is it ok?” he hesitate and said.
“My body is unable to leave here, Thank you for your kindness. You should go now.”
“Well.” He gave up, “where is the nearest place the group of wolf appear?”
“Ahead.”
“Well, I will immediately come back after I got the things you required.”
