The outskirts of the Novice Village was filled with Level 1 Rabbits, but right now, it was packed with a bustling crowd. Usually, 5 or 6 people would follow the rabbit spawn point like thieves, and as soon as the rabbit spawned, it would immediately be dismembered by countless of short swords and elemental balls.

After squeezing around for a long time, he finally saw a lonely rabbit. Feng Xiao hurriedly cut at it with his blade, and at the same time, a message from the Soul’s Eye appeared in his mind:

Rabbit: Level 1 Health: 30/50 Skills: None A group of violent rabbits, beware of its turnips.

With one slash, a red number of -6 appeared on the rabbit’s head. When the rabbit received the attack, it immediately waved the big radish in its hand and retaliated against Feng Xiao.

10

Critical Hit! A yellow critical hit damage that was hard to come across in tens of thousands of years appeared above Feng Xiao’s head, his HP quickly dropping to zero.

“Ding … Player Wind Soul has died. Would you like to return to the Beginner Village to revive?”

“Revive…”

Feng Xiao was so depressed that he wanted to smash his head against a wall. It was a pity that he was determined to become the number one player in the game, but in his first attempt at killing monsters, he was killed by a low-level rabbit … Even though his HP and defense were too low.

“Big brother, how did you do that? This little brother truly admires you …”

The second before he revived, Feng Xiao just happened to hear a certain someone’s deathly words, and immediately felt like dying.

With a flash of white light, Feng Xiao appeared in the Beginner Village with a depressed look on his face. Killing monsters and levelling up wouldn’t do, he couldn’t afford to lose that person, so he decided to complete the quest first.

There were only a few houses in the Beginner Village, but there were only a few NPCs. Currently, they were surrounded by countless players accepting quests. Feng Xiao gave a sad cry. It will take years and months for you to receive a mission.

Feng Xiao noticed that the only person who was not greeted was a dried old man who was sitting against the wall. The old man’s clothes were tattered and his eyes were tightly shut. He was curled up in the corner without moving, like a sculpture from a very long time ago.

Feng Xiao’s expression changed: When something abnormal happens, there must be a demon. The system probably won’t arrange for a useless NPC. Maybe this old man has some sort of secret. In the game, the more special an NPC was, the more likely it was to have a Hidden Quest. This was a result of many years of experience in the game.

Feng Xiao immediately scampered over and politely said to the old man: “Hello, Sir. May I ask what I can do for you?”

The old man turned a deaf ear to him and did not even raise his eyebrows.

“Sir, is there anything I can help you with?”

Or was he just deaf?

“Old mister, do you want me to help you to sit over there?”

… ….

“Old sir, are you cold?”

“Old sir, you have a fly on your nose.”

“Sir …”

… ….

Feng Xiao had nothing else to do anyways, so he kept on talking and bombing in front of the old man for more than half an hour, showing that he was going to drag things out for the rest of the day.

Finally, the old man had a reaction.

“Get lost!”

This loud roar was like a clap of thunder on a sunny day, causing Feng Xiao Zhen to be stupefied and break out in a cold sweat.

“If you want to do something, go to the house opposite and find Madam Ma! Otherwise, unless you find the Chaos Holy Water, don’t bother me! Get lost now! ”

Feng Xiao quivered and immediately ran away. If this strange old man angered the entire Beginner Village to the point that they were chasing after him, they would die.

Wait, what did he just say? The Madam Ma on the other side? Chaos Holy Water? Could it be a hidden quest? However, there didn’t seem to be any notification.

Feng Xiao looked towards the old man. There was a small house that was tightly shut, but no one could be sure if there was anyone inside. At the very least, no one could enter right now.

And what is the Chaos Holy Water?

Feng Xiao carefully returned in front of the weird old man, and asked weakly, “Old man, what is the Chaos Holy Water?”

“Scram!”

The wind scattered.

“The mark of an Asura and the true appearance of a saint actually appeared on the same person. It seems that the seal has been keeping my spiritual sense in a state of chaos for a long time. To think that it could give me such a ridiculous illusion.” Looking at Feng Xiao’s retreating figure, the weird old man murmured something that others couldn’t understand.

Feng Xiao walked up to the wooden house and knocked on the door.

One minute ….

Two minutes …

Five minutes …

Ten minutes …

“If there really is someone inside, then I don’t believe that you won’t open the door. In any case, there’s nothing else I can do, so I’m going to waste time with you today.” Feng Xiao thought fiercely.

Fifteen minutes later, the door finally opened, revealing a middle-aged woman’s head. The woman was about forty years old. She looked quite haggard, and her hair and clothes were a bit messy.

“I’m sorry young man, I really have nothing to do here, please leave.” The woman’s voice was kind, but there was a trace of obvious anger and impatience in it.

Feng Xiao was surprised, thinking that she thought of him as a noob searching for a quest. No wonder he kept the door shut, he was probably annoyed by those players.

Feng Xiao quickly asked: “Hello, are you Madam Ma?”

Madam Ma stared blankly for a moment before asking in astonishment, “How do you know my name?”

Haha, there’s a way! Feng Xiao quickly explained, “Hello Madam Ma, the old man opposite me asked me to come and find you. Is there anything I can help with?” At the same time, he pointed at the old man who was still standing up, secretly betting on whether the old man’s name would be effective or not.

“Ah?” You were introduced by your benefactor? “Quick, invite him in. I’m really sorry for neglecting you just now.” Upon hearing that it was from the old man, Madam Ma’s attitude changed drastically. He excitedly pulled Feng Xiao into the room.

It’s that easy? Could that old man really be a character?

The door was slammed shut, and Madam Ma turned around without saying a word, her bright eyes staring straight at him, causing Feng Xiao’s hair to stand on end.

Could it be that this middle-aged woman was dissatisfied with her request and, seeing how handsome and elegant this young master was, she suddenly had a wicked heart? As Feng Xiao thought to here, he was so shocked that cold sweat broke out all over his body. He immediately made preparations that the situation was not good for him to escape.

Completely contrary to Feng Xiao’s expectations, Madam Ma actually knelt on the ground with a ‘plop’, and said with a tearful voice: “Brave warrior, you must save my man …”

Feng Xiao jumped in fright, and hurriedly helped Madam Ma up, “What happened? If I can help, I will definitely help.”

[There are really birds in this forest…] There was actually someone kneeling down to accept a mission.

After listening to Madam Ma’s story, Feng Xiao finally understood what had happened.

Beginner Village’s NPCs would normally be unable to leave the village, but Madam Ma’s husband, Hunter Ma, was a very curious person. After familiarizing himself with every corner of Beginner Village, his biggest hope in living was to be able to explore the world outside the Beginner Village. Finally, the day came.

He succeeded in creating 3 Boundless Scrolls and 2 Novice Village Return Scrolls. The Boundless Scrolls can break through any restrictions and randomly teleported to the entire Sky Dragon Continent (Sky Dragon Continent: a game area for players in the Chinese server, in addition to the East Ocean Continent, Gao Li Continent, Meili Continent, Ying Ji Continent, Fran continent, and more than 100 other areas) any of the corners. And the Beginner Village Return Scroll could actually allow a person to instantly return to the Beginner Village from any region. Each scroll could only be used once, and would disappear afterwards.

After finding out about this, the Ma Clan Hunter was elated to find the Village Chief. He finally took a Boundless Scroll and a Beginner Village Return Scroll from the Village Chief. Half a year ago, the Ma Clan’s Hunter and the Village Head had both broken the Boundless Scroll and went on a trip to Sky Dragon Continent.

The result was that the two of them were transported to completely different places. When the Village Head found the Ma Clan’s Hunter Residence one day, he could no longer speak or see. Besides being able to breathe, he was no different from a dead person.

The Village Chief was so shocked that he could only find the Return Scroll on the Horse-Hunter’s body. Afterwards, the two of them were teleported back to the Beginner Village. But no one in the Novice Village knew what had gone wrong with the horse hunter. Finally one day, the strange old man noticed the circumstances of the horse hunter and told everyone that the horse hunter must have encountered a powerful dark type monster. His soul was taken away and he would die after a week.

The NPC was different from the player. After a player died, they would be revived and at most they would drop their equipment. After the NPC died, he or she would completely disappear, unless he or she had a powerful revival skill. After death, even if the system created a new NPC, and even if the weird old man performed a water magic to protect the soul of the hunter for a year, if the soul of the hunter was not found and attached to the body, even the Holy Elixir would not be able to save him.

As for who this strange old man was, Madam Ma didn’t know either. All she knew was that he had been in the Novice Village since the moment she was born. He had a slovenly appearance every day and rarely spoke to anyone.

“Brave warrior, can you help me find my man’s soul?”

“Ding! Player Wind Soul, Madam Ma requests your help to find the soul of the hunter. Quest Time Limit: Half a year. Quest Punishment: None. Do you wish to accept the quest?”

Feng Xiao was shocked, he did not know how to reply, because this was a mission that was simply impossible to complete.

No one knew where the hunter was killed by a monster, even if they could find his soul … Can the soul see? Can you feel it? With what?

Taking a step back, even if he found the monster and killed it along with the soul of the horse hunter, how would he be able to return to the Beginner Village?

There was only one way for a player to return to the Beginner Village from the Sky Dragon Continent: to lower their level to 10.

Even if they found it and wanted to kill it, they wouldn’t know what level they would need. Would there be people that would waste a long period of time practicing and killing themselves in the Beginner Village just to complete a Beginner Village quest? Unless that person was a fool.

Was Feng Xiao a fool? Probably not.

“Accept.” Under Madam Ma’s mournful and hopeful gaze, Feng Xiao finally couldn’t take it anymore and accepted the mission with a bitter smile. Since there was no punishment for the mission, and he couldn’t see Madam Ma after coming out of the Beginner Village, he would feel guilty if he didn’t see her.
