Chapter 4: The outskirts of Windwhispering Town

Rookie Survival Handbook・Article 1:

When you're on your first leg of your adventure, you'll be curious about your surroundings. In this case, there are generally two reactions, most of them want to walk around and familiarize themselves with the environment, or they don't say a word, they don't take on the task, and they rush to the field to fight monsters and upgrade with their weapons. Generally speaking, there are about three types of players - rookie, half-baked rookie, and expert. For a rookie, my advice - communicate with the first NPC you talk to, at least not in danger of your life.

"This is a village 60 miles from Windwhispering, adventurers will come back a thousand times, and I wish you a pleasant trip to the Rhine-Luns continent......"

The system's deep and pleasant voice gradually faded away, and Chu Qianchang's vision was still dark and hazy, and he could only identify the surrounding situation by hearing.

The nightingale's singing was accompanied by the sound of the moist wind, and the sparse human voices rippled like ripples, and gradually, the human voices became more and more boiling, and finally they were almost noisy.

Suddenly there was a light in front of him, Chu Qianbian finally regained his vision, the stars in the night sky were sparse, there was no moon in the sky, and a thin shimmer of light sprinkled from the sky, outlining a hazy ......

And where Chu Qianbian is located, there is no hazy aura at all, dozens of torches are obliquely inserted in the cracks of the broken wall, illuminating the surrounding scene one by one, looking around, all the players in the eyes are all kinds of players, humans, night elves, undead, minotaurs, orcs, trolls, ......, players of various races gathered together in twos and threes, and in the dim firelight, those people's faces were full of excitement, so the scene fell in Chu Qianbian's eyes, it seemed somewhat weird.

Just when Chu Qianbian was observing the surroundings with a cautious and cautious gaze, many players appeared beside him, which made Chu Qianbian feel as if he was in a noisy city, and the boiling sound made him frown.

"Let's find a quiet place first and familiarize ourselves with the environment." Chu Qianbian made a decision subconsciously.

Just as Chu Qianyan was trying to push through the crowd and find a secluded place to observe the surroundings, a voice came from behind him that stopped him.

"Young adventurers, please stay. You must be here for the first time, you don't look familiar with Fengyu Town! ”

Chu Qian turned around and saw a big brown-haired man standing behind him, looking at him with a smile.

"Lake? Guardian of the village. npc? ”

Chu Qianbian glanced at this brown-haired strong warrior, and hesitated slightly in his heart, in reality, Chu Qianbian was a fairly mature bounty hunter, he was confident that he could deal with all kinds of unexpected situations and integrate into the new environment as quickly as possible. However, this does not include the game environment.

The habitual hunter survival rules flashed in his mind, and Chu Qianbian immediately recalled the "Rookie Survival Rules" written by his old friend Wei Jinxi, and immediately decided that it would be more secure to follow the experience of the old bird in the game.

Chu Qian's face changed and he greeted with a smile: "Good evening, respected Leke warrior." Chu Qianbian has long been familiar with the customs and etiquette of the major kingdoms in "Night Lord", and his behavior and speech are just right, although he knows that the NPC in front of him is just a piece of virtual data, but Chu Qianbian still forcibly substitutes himself into the role.

Sure enough, when the Ryker warrior heard this, his expression softened even more, and the tired look on his stiff face disappeared slightly, and he smiled bitterly: "Good evening? I'm not good at all! I haven't closed my eyes for two days and two nights, these damn gophers, damn warblers, and those damn orcs......"

Chu Qianbian listened to Lake's complaints word for word in his ears, and the corner of his eye quickly scanned the surroundings, and the players around him were already crowded, but Chu Qianbian still skimmed out the situation of some villages from the gap in the shadow.

Broken walls, charred tree stumps, and a dozen spired houses looming in the dim light of the fire......

"It is because of your bravery that the village has been preserved!" Chu Qianchang responded calmly, he already understood the situation of this ruined village, and he complimented Lake a little.

The face of the Lake warrior became more cordial, and he strengthened his spirits, and motioned to Chu Qianbian: "Thank you for the compliment, young adventurer." Your first time in Windwhisper, let me be your guide. ”

"Thank you for your generosity, Warrior Lake." Chu Qianbian thanked him gratefully.

So, under the leadership of this Laker warrior who took the initiative to talk, Chu Qianbian followed him to sightseeing in the village, Chu Qianbian carefully observed this ruined village, and listened carefully to the Laike warrior's explanation.

And just when the two of them hadn't gone far, Chu Qianbian heard several players complaining loudly not far away.

"Ah Hua, why didn't you just enter the game and didn't see you fighting monsters, so you hung up directly? Wheeled in the village? ”

"Don't mention it, MD! Tell you, don't go to the south of this broken village, there are traps and traps, I just wanted to go over and familiarize myself with the map, just walked two steps and was caught in the trap and died, and hung up directly. ”

"Traps? Pitfall? Still with this? Is there any mistake? ”

"You TMD be quiet, say so loudly, don't you think I'm ashamed enough?"

In the midst of the crowd, these discussions were like small waves, and they disappeared in an instant, but they still allowed Chu Qianyan to capture some similar discussions.

His eyes condensed slightly, and Chu Qianbian recalled the contents of the "Rookie Survival Manual" again, and followed behind the Lake warrior step by step.

"Sure enough, as a rookie, you should still communicate good feelings with NPCs who take the initiative to talk."

Following the side of the Lake warrior, after a while, Chu Qianbian was already familiar with the situation of the place, his current location was a small village in the south of the outskirts of Wind Whispering Town, about 200 miles away from the southernmost hurricane bay of the Weiqin Forest Kingdom, this village has been attacked by various events recently, first the crops of the village were destroyed by greedy gophers, and there were fire warblers from where they raged in the forest, for these things, the Lake warriors and a group of village defenders were exhausted.

But just in the last few days, someone has discovered the traces of the evil orcs of the chaos camp.

"These greedy gophers are really damned, if you go on like this, there will definitely be no harvest in the village this year, and people will starve to death by then." The Lake warrior led Chu Qianbian back from the village, looking at him with worry and anticipation.

"Huh? What does this look mean? Chu Qianbian's heart tightened, and before he could react, the system prompt sound in his ears had already given him the answer.

"Village Guardian Lake Warrior, please ask the player to go to the wheat field to the south a thousand times and hunt 15 greedy gophers, do you accept?"

"So this is a mission!" Chu Qianchang was stunned, and naturally accepted the task quickly.

"General Task: Clearing the Wheat Field."

"Brief Description: The wheat fields of the village have been damaged by gophers, and due to the lack of manpower, the village guardian Ryker Warrior asks you to go to the wheat fields to the south and hunt 15 greedy gophers."

"Objective: Greedy Gopher."

"Quest Tip: As a general quest, you won't be in any danger against the greedy gophers, and likewise, you won't have too many surprises."

Chu Qianbian quickly skimmed through the mission, smiling and talking to the Lake warrior.

"Thank you! Young adventurers. The Ryker warrior laughed heartily, then remembered something, and whispered: "Now there may be evil orc spies hiding around the village, so we have set up a lot of traps and traps around the wheat field, and you must follow this route to reach the wheat field safely." ”

Listening to the route that the Lake warrior said, Chu Qianbian nodded again and again, and finally understood how wronged those players who were reckless and wandering around.

"I await good news from you, young adventurer." After the Lake warrior finished speaking, he ignored Chu Qianyan anymore, and ran behind a player who had just entered the game, and also said, "Young adventurer, please stay." You must be the first time to ...... "doing the same thing as the Lake warriors, as well as the other villagers and guards in the village, Chu Qianbian felt ridiculous at this moment, if these NPCs could spend their time cleaning up the wheat fields, there should be no matter for players like them. Of course, there is no task to do.

Looking at the player who had just entered the game, he didn't pay attention to the enthusiastic Leke warrior at all, and happened to walk towards the south outside the village, Chu Qianyan could probably foresee his fate in the near future.

While browsing the first task that appeared in the mission interface - cleaning up the wheat field, Chu Qianbian glanced around again, the players around him did not decrease because it was early in the morning, with the opening of the "Night Lord", there were more and more players outside the square outside the village, and now the crowd has been crowded to the point where it is difficult to move an inch.

"There are so many people, so there are probably not many players in the wheat field to the south who are doing this gopher mission." Chu Qianbian expected that this first task might not be so easy to do, there must be a situation of more monks and less porridge in the wheat field now, he really has never encountered such a situation, if it were in reality, Chu Qianbian would definitely not have such concerns, not to mention a gopher, even if it is a mosquito, his special silver revolver is absolutely useless.

But now, Chu Qianbian opened the character interface, looked at these attributes and skills that he had never been in contact with, and frowned slightly.

……

"Such rubbish!" Rao is Chu Qianbian has never been in contact with large-scale games, and he also knows that such a character attribute is definitely a waste material level, and there are no bright spots at all.

After thinking for a while, Chu Qianbian opened the port of the game in the outside world, carefully browsed the content of the "Rookie Survival Manual" again, his eyes stayed on the second article of the survival manual for a while, nodded secretly and tried to separate the crowd, and walked towards a clearing to the west of the village, where there was no trace of players at all, because Chu Qianbian had just learned from the Lake warriors that behind that clearing were mostly places infested by evil orcs above level 5, and there were even some more terrifying birds of prey, Some players will naturally not touch this mold again after suffering a loss.

Chu Qianbian walked to the open space to the west, but he just wanted to find an open place and be quiet, the crowded crowd around him really gave him a little headache.

When he walked to the small clearing on the west side of the village, the only tree stump on the open space where people could sit was already occupied, Chu Qianbian was surprised and looked at this person through the hazy starlight, only to see a big sword full of cracks resting next to the tree stump at will, this person was equipped with worn armor, and his profession was obviously a warrior, a human warrior.

Players who have just entered the game naturally have nothing special, but the human warrior in front of him is quite eye-catching, because he has a sky-high golden cockscomb hairstyle.

The first time Chu Qianyan saw this warrior, he really wanted to burn the explosive head clean with a fire.
