At 12 o'clock in the morning, Tang Xin lay down in the game warehouse two minutes early. As the hourglass countdown gradually returned to zero, Tang Xin also began to get nervous.

3、2、1……

――Welcome to No. 19382 Novice Village!

Wearing a coarse cloth vest and shorts, the candy heart holding a dusty wooden novice staff flashed with white light and appeared in the novice village. Tang Xin only felt a salty wind blowing, and when he looked up, he could see the sparkling sea in the distance and the little white sails on the sea. It seems that this is a seaside novice village.

The terrain of the novice village in the game is diverse, including plains, mountains, basins, hills, deserts, plateaus, seashores, ...... It is possible that the seaside village is relatively economically developed, and the other terrain also has its own characteristics.

Tang Xin hurriedly found the right direction and ran towards the village chief.

But the imagination is plump, and the reality is skinny.

Tang Xin thought that he was still the all-sensitive thief, but he suddenly became a short-legged priest, and when he ran, he almost tripped and fell on the ground.

Tang Xin burst into tears......

At this time, white lights appeared one after another in the central square of the novice village, and along with the white light came players in tank tops and shorts.

In the blink of an eye, the village chief and old man were already overwhelmed by the crowd.

Everyone is huddled together, because there is PK protection below level 10, so everyone can't send out skills, so they have to punch and kick each other, it's really strange and spectacular to watch.

Tang thought about it, didn't go to join in the fun, turned around and walked towards the back of the village.

The task of the village chief is undoubtedly the main task, but now there are too many people, and Tang Xin is not confident that with the short arms and legs of the priest, he can squeeze through those jackals, tigers and leopards holding swords and daggers.

Tang Xin still has a vague impression in his memory, once when he was drinking in the tavern, he heard people discuss the tasks of the novice village.

It is said that the most rewarding task in each novice village is the task chain, which is interlocking and complementary to each other between multiple NPCs.

There is no doubt that the first player to complete the quest chain will have a great reward, but the quests in each novice village are different, and even if you know that there is, you still have to discover it yourself.

The process of excavating the task is arduous, and the first obstacle is Tang Xin's little short legs, but fortunately, Tang Xin already has a general direction.

Tang Xin ran towards the dock with confidence. This is the experience that countless players have discussed and summarized, and the most rewarding quests in the Novice Village are often closely related to the history of the origin of the Novice Village.

To put it simply, if it is a plains village, then the village originates next to the water source, agriculture and handicrafts are the main industries of the village, and mobs and bosses are distributed on the plains, in the mines, or in the groves.

It can be inferred from this that the mission must have something to do with it, maybe it's the secret of water pollution, maybe it's the legend of the haunted mines, maybe it's the decay of the forest, etc...... Other deserts, hills...... All have their own characteristics, so I won't explain them all here.

Based on this experience, it can be inferred that the most important economic source of the seaside village is fishing and marine trade, and there may be some maritime tasks, or scenes such as shipwrecks, of course, the seaside village is relatively richer than the rest of the novice villages, but wealth also means breeding, interest chains and the like, so the task may also fall on the bureaucratic side.

Although his legs were short, when most of the players were still seizing the open space next to the village chief, Tang Xin still reached the dock with ease. The wharf is bustling with NPCs of fishermen returning from fishing, NPCs who purchase fish for the restaurant, and of course, there are also NPCs such as sailors, officers and soldiers, and chambers of commerce.

"Boss, how is the harvest today?" Tang Xin walked around the fish market and chatted with the fishermen. "Haha, yes, there are fresh salmon and tuna today, do you want to have some." The fisherman, dressed in coarse cloth, said as he raised his head and drank a bottle of inferior beer.

"Is there anything unusual in the village?" Tang Xin continued to ask succinctly.

"The little girl is quite gossipy!" The fisherman looked around, seeing that no one was paying attention, beckoned Tang Xin to approach, and whispered, "Brother Tang Ji went out to sea to look for treasure, but they haven't come back for more than a week, and we all feel that they have come back in vain." ”

"What treasure? Where's the treasure? Does anyone know about this? When did they leave? Tang Xin tried to trigger the keyword.

"Hehe, it's said to be a pirate's treasure, I don't know where it is, if I knew that I didn't go early, ha, it's good that I didn't go, I don't know if I came back." The fisherman gloated, "I also heard Anna say it when I went to the tavern for a drink, and they must have been on for eight or nine days, but I don't know exactly when." ”

Tang Xin nodded and walked away.

Then she asked the same question, and asked a circle of NPCs around her.

Several strings of information were derived, the first of which was about pirate treasure and the missing brothers, provided by fishermen, dock workers, and guards, but the accounts of each person differed, some speculated that they had died, some said they had seen ghosts, and some said that they had already obtained the treasure and took their families away, because the wife and children of the Donji brothers were also missing.

The second string of information is more hidden, it is about the president of the Chamber of Commerce and the lord of the Northlands, and the information currently available is limited, only that there are some dirty things between these two high-status NPCs, but the specific events are unclear.

The third is gossip, it is rumored that someone saw a man in black jumping out of the window of the glamorous and coquettish tavern proprietress in the middle of the night. The description is moving and the reasoning is wonderful, which makes Tang Xin feel red-faced when he hears it, and makes this ordinary peach-colored scandal like a small alphabet movie with ups and downs.

Tang Xin took out a quill and a notebook, recorded these three strings of information, and marked the coordinates of the NPC, its name, its identity and the general content of its speech.

So far, Tang Xin has not received any system prompts and information, if ordinary players would definitely sigh for wasting time and wasting their efforts, but Tang Xin, who has come over, is already very satisfied. It seems that the task trigger in the novice village is really much simpler, and it should be a space for newcomers to adapt.

In the game, the normal main quests, side quests, and daily quests all have quest scrolls, and the scrolls occupy a backpack, and the player will also receive a system prompt.

However, hidden quests, quest chains, and epic-level quests are completely unprompted, and players often have to reason and trigger on their own, and they will receive the rewards of the quest one after another after many steps, and until the whole story is over, there will be a system to reward the title, prestige, and experience.

Tang Xin put away the notebook and walked to the tavern, two of the three information strings mentioned the tavern hostess, it seems that the proprietress Anna is an important person.

The taverns in the seaside village are bustling with seafarers and fishermen who like to come home for a drink, listen to the minstrels' songs, boast about their deeds, and as one of the few restaurants in the novice village to offer food and drink, NPC villagers and hungry players also come to help.

"Yo, what do you want the little beauty to drink, do you want my sister to come and mix one for you on the spot?" The glamorous and coquettish proprietress Anna was very enthusiastic, dragged Tang Xin to sit down, and pinched Tang Xin's tender face.

Tang Xin is not angry, the charm value and luck value in the game are hidden attributes, and after the research of various emperors, it is finally proved that appearance is an important factor affecting the weight of charm. Tang Xin's skin is not bad, so his natural charm value is not low.

"Sister Anna, I'll drink whatever you want!" Tang Xin estimated that he probably met the preferences of the proprietress, and sold cuteness without shame.

"Okay, my sister is so popular, my sister will make you a special drink!" Anna smiled, hooked Tang Xin in a good mood, her plump boobs squeezed on Tang Xin's body, and she was going to blush as a girl, "One sixth of Merlpop pomegranate syrup, one sixth of Kustali liqueur, one sixth of Hamys violet, one-sixth of Nadora white mint, one-sixth of Nadora blue mint, one-sixth of Sandoli brandy, it's done!" Psychedelic rainbow wine! ”

Tang Xin began to write down the recipe when Anna started bartending, which was one of the ways the system recognized to obtain the recipe. In the process of crafting skills, players who are lucky enough to watch can learn a lot of things, the most direct is the formula, as well as the improvement of skill proficiency, and sometimes even the super high-level skills will get advanced when they activate their skills.

――The system prompts that the Psychedelic Rainbow Wine recipe has been added to the Chef Catalog, with a completion rate of 23% and a reward of 300 experience points.

――The system prompts that the player will be rewarded with the title "Learner of Life", 50 points of world prestige, and 1000 points of experience.

With two brushes, the white light flashed on Tang Xin's body, and the level became level 2.

――The system prompts you to achieve the announcement achievement, do you want to hide your name? Note that revealing your name will reward you with an additional 50 World Fame.

Select Not to Hide. Suddenly, the announcement of the whole server sounded: "Player Candy Heart, the first self-taught formula to succeed, will be rewarded with the title of 'Learner of Life'." ”

It's not that Tang Xin likes to be in the limelight, the key is that the 50-point world prestige is too important.

There are many conditions for receiving quests in the game, such as reputation, level, charisma, pre-scenes, trigger statements, NPC favorability, ......

Among them, world prestige, common to all factions and races, is the undoubted hard currency in the game, and many times it is better than almighty gold coins, after all, although money is precious, there are always channels to earn it, but world prestige, more than half of the players have never even seen it.

So Tang Xin can't give up this prestige reward no matter what.

Life learner: Passive title, Life Technician Favorability +1, Self-Learning Skills Success Rate +10%, Invention Creation Zào Success Rate +10%.

Ha, that's a good title! What an unexpected surprise! Tang Xinmei read this title twice repeatedly, if she was a full-time life player, she would probably be crazy by now, but she loves PK, and her energy has always been focused on improving her combat effectiveness, so just look at it twice.

"Sister Anna, I heard from the uncles at the docks that the Tangji brothers found that the pirate treasure had gone to sea, but they have not yet returned, and their families have disappeared one after another, do you know what's going on?" Tang Xin patiently said all the key words.

Treat an important NPC like Anna, the language can no longer be so refined, these functional NPCs with important positions, especially this kind of NPC that is suspected of having clues about important tasks, the AI is very high, if you are perfunctory, don't expect to get clues and receive good tasks
