Chapter 10 – Physician Blevins

Nie Yan glanced in the direction of the Lakeside It seems they’ve already started</e an attack by the Victorious Return guild This hy the encircling Fishmen had abandoned their attack and returned to aid their tribeht Victorious Return’s people would end up saving e!</e vicinity was now completely safe Hence, Nie Yan stepped up his search for nearby treasure chests Eventually, he noticed another treasure chest hidden within the thick underwater vegetation It was a white treasure chest, just like the last

here coincides with the one in my memories This is the location!</eh it, he felt a skill book make contact with his hands It was the Gatherer skill book! As he held it in his hands, it turned into a streak of white light The skill bar for supportive abilities had another skill appear—Gatherer!

Pretty decent harvest… However, I don’t know if there are any other treasure chests within this area It would si It doesn’t matter; I still know many other locations where I can find treasure chests When I level up a bit, I can go pick the back and forth between the aquatic plants If he encountered aa far distance away After about ten le island in thethis did he swim towards the surface

「System: You’ve discovered an island within the center of the lake</e the shore, Nie Yan checked his coordinates As he was investigating the surrounding area, he discovered a person sitting in the far distance—fishi+ng by the shore

This NPC was a very odd old le player who encountered him to retrieve Fine Silk For every bundle of Fine Silk that was brought back, the player would receive one Silk Cloth

If Fine Silk was sold to an NPC, it would amount to three coppers However, Silk Cloth could only be sold for two coppers If one continued on like this, there would be a loss in profit Even after continuously exchanging with hi to compensate the player

There were many players ould complete this task However, every one of them would continue to receive losses—never to receive a reward of any sort

Nie Yan also did this task in his previous life Only after delivering five Fine Silk did he finally give up accepting this quest Exchanging Fine Silk for Silk Cloth was truly a waste of money

Sometime later, a person who did not believe he would continue to receive nothing, repeatedly accepted the quest Only after delivering thirty Fine Silk did he finally receive a reward This NPC would impart onto the player the Combat Medic skill—not only this, but it would be at the Intermediate level as well After this infor the player-base One after another, they would continuously rush over to accept the quest However by that time, the NPC had already left

Currently in the area where Nie Yan was located, there were Level 3 monsters known as Water Spiders that dropped Fine Silk Obtaining thirty Fine Silk would probably require about three days of continuous grinding It just so happened that he could far up Exchanging thirty Fine Silk for thirty Silk Cloth wasmore Compared to an Interible amount

Nie Yan walked over to the old e old man muttered loudly to hihold would be besieged by the devil creatures that arise froround There are nuhold For the sake of safeguarding this lush and prosperous land, they pay with their blood and lives The wounded suffer in anguish every day and night To them, yesterday is the same as tomorrow and tomorrow is the same as yesterday”

He turned his head towards Nie Yan and asked, “Youngster, now tell me—would it better if I fished here on the shore, or would it be better if I fished while on the waters?”

The old e Numerous wrinkles were spread across his face As if withered, his skin looked si like the folds of his skin, his ashen-grey cloak hung low by his fishi+ng rod

From his impression, Nie Yan’s felt this NPC was a funny e and odd questions, and it was fine as long as you somewhat answered them However at present, when Nie Yan heard the old man’s words, “Yesterday is the same as tomorrow Tomorrow is also the sa

This old man wasn’t an old fool Rather, he was actually quite wise!

It was fine if you answered the question in whichever way you liked However, as if goaded on by so as you’re able to catch fish, shore or water, what difference does itNie Yan’s answer, the oldthe change in the old man’s expression as it fell upon his eyes, Nie Yan becaly convinced—this Old Man in front of him definitely wasn’t simple

“Time is akin to an illusion andnothing and suffering eternally repeats In the end, everything returns to dust Even if those brave warriors are able to defend this vast great world, they won’t be able to escape the pain of illness and the Reaper of Death In the end, what hed

“The rets,” Nie Yan said, while deep in conteained this life after living through his previous one He continued replying to the old man’s question “All their loved ones, their fellow brothers… all of theside them in this vast world They continue to resist the attacks of their ene them happiness They stake their lives in order to defend this lory In doing so, the God of Light will protect them”

Nie Yan speculated that this old hold, who left and journeyed outside in search of Fine Silk

Listening to Nie Yan’s words, the muddled expression in the oldman, I need a lot of Fine Silk Is it possible for you to help me obtain it?” the old man asked

“It’s my desire to help in any way I can,” Nie Yan happily replied These were the exact words he had waited for
