117: Chapter 112: Recruiting Refugees 117: Chapter 112: Recruiting Refugees Leading iqiu along, he defeated so monsters; having a Pet indeed made it enjoyable.
He started with his bow and arrow, and before the monster could reach him, iqiu charged and flipped it over.
A couple of quick arrows followed, and with iqiu biting a few tis, the monster was often killed before it could even get close.
If he kept developing in this way, he feared he might beco purely a long-range Profession.
However, he couldn’t neglect lee combat; after all, the bow and arrow didn’t involve any sophisticated Martial Arts.
The early levels were manageable, but once he learned the Inner Power Saber Technique, he should focus on lee combat.
When the two returned to the village, it was not yet noon.
He had planned to go ho for lunch, but Xiao Jie was surprised to see a crowd gathered outside the ancestral hall for so reason.
What was this about?
Xiao Jie walked over, and imdiately, soone made room for him.
“Young Master Sui Feng, this way, this way.”
Xiao Jie couldn’t refuse, so he moved closer and saw a Militia mber posting a notice.
Oh, he had never seen such a thing before.
The notice read—
[Recruitnt Order:
In light of the recent zombie attacks causing significant casualties in the village, the population of Ginkgo Village has drastically diminished.
Village chief Master Huang has issued a decree to recruit strong n to go to the forest outside the village and recruit refugees to replenish the village’s population.
Those willing to accept may report to the village chief’s house to take up the Task.
Village chief of Ginkgo Village—Master Huang]
Hmm?
Recruiting refugees, are there really any refugees?
Having leveled in the valley for so many days, he had never encountered any refugees.
Yet, he vaguely guessed a possibility.
There might have been none before, but the mont this Recruitnt Order was posted, there probably would be.
Just like the ti he triggered the monster attack on the village, it didn’t happen sooner or later but just three days after he investigated the Ancient Tomb.
If no one investigated the Ancient Tomb, perhaps the monster attack on the village would never happen, similarly with the refugees.
“Feng, should we take on this task?”
“Let’s ask the village chief about the situation before deciding.”
If the reward for the Task was substantial, there was no harm in doing it.
When they arrived at the village chief’s house, Dongfang Sheng had just finished speaking with the village chief.
“Rest assured, village chief, I will do my utmost to search for refugees and escort them here—oh, Sui Feng, you guys have reached Level 10, congratulations.” Dongfang Sheng said, his gaze inevitably falling on the large, dark pig behind Xiao Jie, which was particularly noticeable inside the house.
“Is this your new Pet?
Impressive.”
Dongfang Sheng’s envy was evident.
“I won’t disturb your conversation with the village chief any further, I must take my leave.”
Once Dongfang Sheng had hurriedly left, Xiao Jie spoke up, “Village chief, I would like to contribute to the recruitnt of refugees, but I am not sure about the details of the Task.”
“Good, good, the more people doing this Task the better.
In recent years, severe disasters have struck, many cities and villages were destroyed, leading to a rise in refugees.
Since Ginkgo Village is currently short on people, it is an ideal ti to recruit so refugees to replenish our population.
The refugees are mostly scattered in the forest outside the village.
If you encounter them, bring them back.
Rember to recruit able-bodied n and won; children are also acceptable.
Try to avoid bringing back the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled, as they would just consu food needlessly.
Of course, exceptions can be made for those with special skills.
This Task depends entirely on you.
For every refugee brought back, you will receive a reward of one hundred cents.
There is so flexibility based on the quality of the refugees.
Currently, Ginkgo Village is short of 49 people, the recruitnt will stop once this number is reached.”
[System ssage: Village chief Master Huang has issued you the Task [Recruitnt Order].
Do you accept?
Yes/No.]
Xiao Jie thought to himself, wow, so this is how the village replenishes its population.
The population of the village is actually counted.
He had previously wondered how those dead NPCs would be replenished.
Now it seems…perhaps so of the NPCs in the village were also converted from refugees.
Perhaps every ti there was a monster attack on the village, this Recruitnt Order Task would appear.
An average of one hundred cents per villager, with just the three of them earning, they should be able to make a total of a thousand or two thousand cents at least.
It was not a small inco; Dongfang Sheng’s hasty departure was likely because he wanted to be the first to find people.
“No problem, village chief, just wait for us to bring people.”
After leaving the village chief’s house and just about to leave the village, I Want to Be Immortal couldn’t help but ask.
“Feng, when are we leaving Ginkgo Valley?”
“In a hurry?”
“I mainly want to deliver the Demon Talisman and see if I can get a Task related to ‘Spell,’ since I need to—”
“Resurrect your brother, I understand.
Don’t worry, we should be able to leave tomorrow.
Let’s first see to the recruitnt of refugees today and then try to take down the mountain bandit camp.
There are bound to be good items in the Silver Treasure Box.
We are already Level 10 now and cannot afford to miss out, then we can proceed.”
“Let’s go, let’s recruit the refugees first.”
After leaving the village, they imdiately split up.
Since the refugees were scattered throughout the valley, dividing their efforts was definitely more efficient, and luckily both were already Level 10, so acting alone wasn’t much of a pressure.
Xiao Jie led iqiu and sped toward the depth of the forest.
The monsters in the forest were mostly wild animals, and thanks to his Talent, Beast Affinity, he was unlikely to trigger fights, which conveniently facilitated his movent.
Moreover, his pace was fast, making him quite efficient in searching.
Sure enough, he hadn’t gone far when he saw a scrawny, trembling old man hiding under a big tree.
