285 Neutral Faction (1/2)

After escaping from the church, Wang Yu quickly left the area.

Knowing how wicked the Church of Light was, they had probably lowered Wang Yu's fame even more. It was not safe for Wang Yu to be wandering around the church.

Wang Yu thought to himself as he was running away, since they outcasted him for his fame, he must complete some quests to increase his fame if he wanted to join the Holy Faction.

However, from what he knew about the system, he would have to earn back at least 100 fame, for the Holy Faction to accept him.

After slaying the angel and commander of the Holy Faction, Wang Yu's fame in the Holy Faction was deducted by more than 400 points. It was only because he had declined the invitation from the Dark Faction, in addition to the quests he completed in Twilight City, that he had managed to keep his fame at about -200.

Now that he made such a mess in the church, his fame in the Holy Faction must be less than -300. To improve his familiarity with the Holy Faction, he must somehow increase his fame by more than 200.

Faction fame was difficult to farm, each single quest only gave out a few fame. That would take forever for Wang Yu to complete. Wang Yu needed to find high intelligence NPCs to get his fame up quickly.

In Twilight City, there were only three intelligent NPCs that Wang Yu knew, the city Lord, blacksmith Simba, and the hermit.

As the representative of a neutral city, the city Lord must have a bad relationship with the Holy Faction. If not, it would be illogical for Twilight City to be neutral when the Lord worshipped the Holy God.

Blacksmith Simba was a dirty dwarf who did not match the image of holiness. It was also said that dwarves believed in the God of War, so dwarves must be considered infidels to the Holy Faction. Simba was probably bullied when he was young.

Wang Yu believed that Simba would give out quests that lowered Holy Faction fame instead. Given how the system was, it would not be a surprise if Simba told players that destroying the statue of the Holy God would increase their Holy Faction fame.

After much thought, Wang Yu was only left with the hermit as an option.

Although hermit did not seem like a believer of God, his belief was not revealed either. Hence, the hermit had the highest chance among the three NPCs to give out Holy Faction fame quests.

Wang Yu unknowingly wandered into hermit's location while he was deep in thought.

After waking the hermit up with the old-fashioned way, the hermit asked, ”It's you again?”

”It's me…” Wang Yu smirked and took out a few bottles of wine and continued, ”These are for you!”

Hermit raised his brows and said, ”Hmph! You must be up to something…”

”Tch, I would take them away if you don't want them!” Wang Yu acted like he was going to keep the alcohol.

The hermit quickly stopped Wang Yu and said, ”I like young men like you, just speak up!”

'I want a quest!” Wang Yu was being straightforward.

Hermit let out a sigh of relief and replied, ”Oh, it's about that. I suspect that the Dusk Temple is the mastermind behind the darkness' descend, you can go check it out with some friends.”
