Chapter 559: And Another One Falls (1/2)
”It's as I expected. This is really a cultivation world!” Harry nodded in understanding.
He knew that this was one because there were no planets aside from this massive land mass and collection of oceans. There were innumerable continents in this land.
He also tried going to outer space but try as he might, his invulnerable fortress just could not pierce through the barrier of this world overhead.
This was of course the Heavenly Laws that were ever present in this xianxia world. In the end, Harry sought the guidance of his able system.
”Are you there, Natalie?”
”...” There was no answer to be found. Only a deafening silence.
”Natalie?” Harry tried again.
”...” And still, there was nothing. Not even a moan or a whisper.
”Did my system cheat leave me after the giving of the newbie gift package?” He was alarmed by the close possibility.
Luckily for our poor loser, a beep echoed in his ears after 5 breaths of silence.
”DING!”

This set of information hovered before his eyes in dazzling green texts. They were quite understandable enough that our poor loser protagonist knew quickly what their functions were.
”Hmmm... Perhaps I should try killing some stray chickens to see if they give me experience.” Harry mused and did exactly what he intended.
He found a poor chicken soon enough. He opened a portal towards his impenetrable fortress and lured the lonely animal inside.
”PUCHI!” A little life was stolen by our loser mc.
”So a chicken doesn't give me exp like the other light novels i read before. Figures.” Harry cleaned the sole of his boots on the grass nearby. A sad chicken died for nothing.
”I should look at the available quests for me.”
”DING!”
1. Eliminate the Snake Bandits = 10 exp reward
2. Court Maiden Wang Xin = 10 exp reward
3. Find a job = 10 exp reward
4. Be a good samaritan and give money to the poor = 10 exp reward

...
The list was long and exhaustive. Some of them were even too undesirable to do. Like cleaning 100 toilets and being coffin carriers for 20 dead bodies.
But the pay was also quite significant in those traumatizing quests. In the end, Harry shook his head and wanted to find another alternative in gaining power.
