Chapter 21 Serial Tasks
Hearing that Beggar Zhang actually asked him to run errands again, Xu Youming was really speechless.
There's nothing wrong with asking people to complete tasks, but you have to at least give rewards. Xu Youming felt a little resentful that he had completed two tasks in a row but received no rewards.
But there is no way. I have already done so much. I can't give up now.
Fortunately, there was no time limit for this task. Xu Youming looked at the time and it was already late, so he simply logged off and waited until tomorrow.
In front of Beggar Zhang, Xu Youming directly quit the game.
"Hey, Brother Ming, your conditions are too harsh, no one can accept them."
Not long after I went offline, Fat Brother called me.
Xu Youming asked him to help him find a tenant and required the tenant to pay annually. The rent was 5,000 yuan a month, which most people could not afford.
Xu Youming was not in a hurry. He knew that there were many rich second-generations in the school and he believed that the house would be rented out.
"By the way, how's that mission going? Is it completed?"
Xu Youming has wasted several days on this task, and Pang Ge is worried about him, but as a veteran game player, Pang Ge has been encouraging Xu Youming to complete the task.
After all, this is a hidden mission in the Novice Village, so the reward will definitely not be bad.
According to Xu Youming, Fatty also won the title of Pheasant Killer, but failed to trigger the hidden task, which made him a little depressed.
Perhaps each village is triggered differently.
"I did find the chicken heart stone, but the beggar asked me to do other things and never mentioned the reward."
"Serial quests? It's actually mentioned on the official website. It's said that the rewards at the end of a serial quest are very generous, but if one of the links is not completed, all the previous efforts will be wasted. It can be said that there are pros and cons."
When the fat man heard that Xu Youming had accepted a series of tasks, he was undecided for a moment.
It would be best if all of them could be completed, but the probability of failure in serial tasks is still quite high, especially in the novice stage , when there are too few external forces to rely on, and you never know where you might fail.
"Never mind, let's just leave it to fate. Giving up halfway is not my style."
It was a bit hard for him to just give up like that, especially since Beggar Zhang looked like he deserved a beating. If he just gave up like that, wouldn't it be like he had worked for him in vain?
After hanging up the phone, Xu Youming played soothing music and fell asleep on the bed.
The next day, Xu Youming exercised in the gym on the third floor for half an hour and then entered the game.
Seeing Xu Youming suddenly appear, Beggar Zhang just glanced at him briefly, and then continued to curl up on his straw bed, biting a piece of straw in his mouth, looking contented.
Xu Youming was too lazy to pay attention to him and walked straight to the tailor shop in the village. Aunt Li was the NPC of the tailor shop.
Although it was morning, the village was already bustling with people, all in a hurry, busy with their tasks.
When we arrived at the tailor shop, Aunt Li was making clothes in the shop, and many players were also accepting tasks here.
"The fur of the wild rabbits in the southeast of the village is excellent sewing material. Can you help me find some?"
The hare, also a level 5 wild monster, is where the current players gather.
"Aunt Li, beggar Zhang asked me to come to you to ask for a piece of silk embroidery, and he wanted the best quality."
Xu Youming directly stated his purpose.
Hearing the name of Beggar Zhang, Aunt Li turned and looked at Xu Youming.
"We do have some fine silk embroidery. How much are you prepared to spend on it?"
"What? I have to spend money to buy it?"
Xu Youming looked at Aunt Li's unfriendly eyes and felt that he had been deceived by Beggar Zhang again.
She said that she asked him to come and get it, but she didn't say that it would cost money.
After saying that, a list appeared in front of Xu Youming. The price of silk embroidery was clearly written in the bottom column: 1 gold coin.
After seeing the price, Xu Youming was immediately in despair. He would not be worth a single gold coin even if he was sold.
"Of course, you can also exchange something for it. If you provide me with a piece of perfect rabbit fur, I can make an exception and give you a piece of top-quality silk embroidery."
Aunt Li naturally knew that Xu Youming could not have 1 gold coin, so she directly gave the second option.
"Okay, deal!"
Xu Youming had no other choice except this option.
There were not many mana-restoring herbs left in the package. Too much was consumed when killing the wild boar. When passing by the grocery store, Xu Youming spent another 50 copper coins to replenish some.
Other players don’t have any skills yet and won’t consume mana, but only Xu Youming knows that using skills really costs money.
Yesterday's battle reduced the durability of the Cocktail Arrow by more than 40 points. I spent 30 coppers to repair it at the blacksmith shop.
In this game, you don’t make money quickly, but you spend money like water.
Five miles southeast of the village, Xu Youming arrived at Chunwangpo as requested by Aunt Li. Countless players were fighting the rampant rabbits here.
Hare
Level: 5
Attack: 55
HP: 2500
Physical Defense: 18
Magic Defense: 16
Skill
Rabbit Strike: Launches a fierce attack on the target, causing 120% physical damage.
With Xu Youming's current attributes, dealing with these hares is no problem at all. Even without using skills, his attacks can easily break the hares' defenses.
In order not to attract other people's attention, Xu Youming continued to walk inside and stopped in a place with few people.
In the grass ahead, a gray rabbit was running around, ready to pounce on Xu Youming.
puff--
Xu Youming raised his hand and shot an arrow, hitting the hare in the belly.
-105
The hare's health dropped instantly, but the power of the arrow was not enough to knock the hare away, and the hare's claws still fell on Xu Youming.
-25
The rabbit was much faster than the pheasant before, and even the wild boar couldn't catch up with it.
Xu Youming retreated quickly. This time he was careless and only noticed the rabbit when he got close to it.
His agility was only 8 points, which was still a little bit lacking compared to the agile hare, and he had no way of getting rid of the hare.
No wonder most players are stuck at level 5. It turns out that the wild monsters at level 5 are so strong. Xu Youming only has 750 health points. If he keeps exchanging blood with the wild rabbits, he won’t be able to hold on for long.
After level 5, the experience gained from killing low-level monsters will be sharply reduced.
Whoosh——
During the retreat, Xu Youming's arrows kept flying out. Fortunately, his basic skills were solid, and basically every arrow hit its target.
After the hare took away more than 200 points of health, he finally killed it.
[Ding, you successfully killed the hare and gained experience +20]
What surprised Xu Youming was that something exploded after the hare died.
Damaged rabbit skin
Sewing materials
It turned out to be just gray material, but it was better than nothing, so Xu Youming picked it up and threw it into the package.
After the first lesson, Xu Youming never dared to be careless again. Once these hares got close to him, he would lose not only blood but also a lot of money.
