Chapter 9: New Tasks and Countermeasures
There's a big monster coming to the east!
No one else is allowed to drink water every day?!
Wait a minute!
The news...... Could it be...... Quest reward?!
After hearing Zhang's words, Zhuang Yi suddenly thought of a possibility, because this game is indeed a bit out of routine.
Instead of sending the inventory directly, the quest reward allows you to check it out at the right time.
Meantime...... The name of this quest reward is also a bit strange, it is a clue to solve the water shortage crisis!
The quest reward is a clue!
The news that Zhang said is obviously also a clue!
If it's a coincidence, the timing is too coincidental!
But if it's not a coincidence...... Then there is only one possibility left!
Zhuang Yi thought so!
Listening to what the old Zhang family said, I seem to remember it, a few days ago...... There seems to be an unusual movement in the east!" A villager interjected.
"What's going on?" Another villager asked.
"Maybe it's because I'm tired of ploughing, and I'm hallucinating! Occasionally, I hear a sound similar to a baby's crying, as if it was something like a buosh......"
"Really?"
……
……
Bite~
A new rumor has been detected in your territory, and it seems that it is related to the water problem!
As the head of Snowflake Village, you have the responsibility and obligation to solve the water problem.
Trigger Basic Mission: [Water Difficulty]
Reward: Restore the water supply from the well, or get a new water source and the favor of the villagers.
Quest Punishment: Snowflake Village Relocation.
Listening to the villagers outside the house, scattered gossip, accompanied by the sound of the game prompt, Zhuang Yi felt that he seemed to have figured out the routine of this game.
Through dialogue, or some kind of anecdote, the corresponding quest is triggered. And then the quest rewards are also, not directly distributed to the inventory like traditional online games.
The realism of the game is also super high!
It's basically a 100% fit!
In addition to being so poor that there is no bottom line...... This game seems to be pretty good, too!
Zhuang Yi commented on the game in his heart, and then pulled his attention back to reality, after all, a new task has been issued, and the next thing is to find a way to complete it!
"Ladies and gentlemen! It is impossible for the well in the village to dry up without warning. The lack of water today may really have something to do with the anomaly in the east, for the sake of the water source in the village, I think...... We've got to go and find out!"
Zhuang Yi had already walked out of Zhang's cabin, after all, Zhang Xiaozi was still catching a cold, standing in a patient's house, discussing a matter, it was not appropriate.
"The village chief is right! We can't go without water!"
"Since it is possible that there is a change in the east that has affected the water source, then we must go and take a look!"
"Then what are you waiting for, let's do it quickly!"
……
The problem of water is completely a basic problem of survival!
If there is no water source, there is no water to drink in the village, and there is no way to water the rye in the fields, and there is no way for them to cook and eat.
For the people at the bottom, whether they can fill their stomachs is always the most concerned issue!
The villagers were anxious, and they were eager to go to the east immediately to see what was affecting the water source in the village.
However, the villagers were anxious, but Zhuang Yi was very calm.
Because he firmly remembered what his parents used to say before entering the game: if you die in this game world, it means that you are really dead!
Zhuang Yi didn't think that his parents would joke with him about this kind of thing!
Since you will die in this world, then it means that it is full of danger!
What is Danger?
Didn't you hear what Zhang just said?
There's a big monster in the east!
The big monster in the background of the fantasy world, it's definitely not an ordinary beast, it's a messy beast, a fierce beast or something.
And even if it's just a beast, he's a lv1, and he's a scum who doesn't know anything, what can he do if he goes?
Feed the beast?
It's a matter of life, Zhuang Yi can't be calm if he doesn't want to!
The beast is not a cafeteria aunt, when you meet food, it will definitely not slip!
"Calm down, everyone! Though...... I'd also like to solve the water problem right away. But just now, the Zhang family said that there may be big monsters in the east! What if the monster isn't eating grass? ”
Quiet!
Originally, there were some noisy villagers, but they suddenly closed their mouths, and everyone looked at each other.
Oh, yes!
It is said that there is a monster in the east, and in case it is just in time, the monster's meal ......
After all, they are all begging for a living in the mountains, and everyone knows what will happen when they encounter a beast that has not eaten enough.
The village is full of ordinary people, although there are one or two people who have a little experience in hunting, but against the big monsters, no matter how experienced they are, they can't survive!
"Village Chief! I'm fast! I can go and see what the situation is, it's really not good, I can run back alone!"
Well?!
Just when Zhuang Yi was at a loss and the villagers were at a loss, a middle-aged man with a tall head stood up with gritted teeth.
Zhuang Yi also took the opportunity to look at him.
Name: Ma Liu
Identity: Ordinary villager of Xuehua Village
Level: Lv3
Realm: Do not enter the stream
Skills: Level 1 Hunting, Level 1 Fishing
Talents: None
Evaluation: An ordinary person with some agility
Loyalty: 73
"Ma Liu! He's a man!"
"It's an old horse! If it's an old horse to investigate, then it's definitely no problem!"
……
According to the data feedback obtained by Zhuang Yi, this villager named Ma Liu is indeed relatively agile, and judging from the reaction of the villagers, everyone is more at ease with him.
In terms of simply investigating the situation, this Ma Liu is indeed the first candidate, Zhuang Yi thought so, and at the same time opened his mouth and ordered: "Be careful on the road, if you find anything wrong, run back first!" Safety comes first!, your life is more important than anything else!"
——
Hearing the village chief's instructions, Ma Liu's face was obviously excited, and the mood that was still a little apprehensive suddenly became excited.
For Ma Liu, there is no encouragement, and it can be compared to the value of a nobleman, and it must be more intense.
What's more, the water source in the village is also directly related to his survival.
"Village Chief! I'll be careful! I'll definitely come back with useful information!" Ma Liu's tone was very firm, and the pair of rough palms were also held very tightly by Ma Liu at the right time, and he swore in his heart that he must do his best to complete this task!
"Go ahead! You are now the hope of the whole village!" Zhuang Yi followed Ma Liu's words and subconsciously added.
The whole village ...... Hope?!
The village chief he ...... It's true...... I am valued very much!
He Ma Liu, just an ordinary rough man who is almost 40 years old, once upon a time, could he be entrusted with such a big responsibility? !
For a while, Ma Liu only felt that the burden of thousands of catties was pressing on his body, and even his breathing began to become a little heavy!
And soon, Ma Liutou ran towards the east of Xuehua Village without looking back, leaving behind a group of hopeful villagers, as well as Zhuang Yi who lowered his head and fell into contemplation.
