After walking out the village, I looked around, and the vast forest was filled with green colour creatures. There are no players around the region yet.
I look back and saw to my horror, a stampede of new players rushing towards this area!
I imdiately ran up ahead, and was about to do my job start killing the mobs to gain experience and money.
I saw that not far away, there was a woman dressed in sackcloth. She was looking everywhere, as if she was seeking help.
Yi? Looks that there is a mission!
I did not hesitate, and imdiately made my way towards her.
When I reached the NPC girl, she begins to speak to : My grandfather lost his axe when he went to cut firewood in the forest. It was rumoured that a goblin has stolen the axe! Please, can you help to retrieve my grandfathers axe?
Ding ~!
System Prompt: Will you accept the quest [Retrieve Goblin War Axe]?
Of course, why would I reject this quest?
I imdiately chose to accept.
Ding ~!
System notice: You have accepted the quest [Retrieve Goblin War Axe] ! (Beginners Quest, difficultly level 10)
Quest Details: Help the woman [Little Flower] to find the missing axe. The axe should be in the hands of the goblins that are outside the village. Kill the goblins and retrieve ten axes from their corpses.
I was surprised. Little Flowers grandpa only lost a single axe. How co my question requires to find ten axes? This is definitely my type of expertise making a small sacrifice for a big gain!
After speaking to , Little Flower began to sit under the tree, and it seems that she will not give up any more missions.
I set out to find these goblins.
At this ti, a goblin that was quite closed to seed to discover , and it co at with its small axe. It is very short like a winter lon, and the funniest thing is it even wore a green colour hat.
[In Cantonese, wearing a green colour hat had another aning: It ans your wife is having an affair with another man. Yes I know, this Chinese authors jokes does not translate well among non-Chinese. ]
I looked at the goblin and discovered that I could see its specs.
Small GoblinNormal Beast
Level1
Attack1-3
Defence1
Life100
The small goblin attack only does 1-3 points of damage. With my 2 points of defence, it should not be too hard for to take it on.
Therefore I quickly go up, and smashed my staff on the small goblins head.
Bong!
On the top of the goblin head suddenly appear -12 number. This number should be the damage I inflicted on the goblin.
But the goblins axe also landed on my shoulder. There was a slight pain as I discovered I lost 5 points of life.
Great! My life is about the sa as the goblin, but I do more damage with each hit. I should be able to kill it off.
The most important thing is, my attack is much faster than the goblin. As a beginning level monster, the goblin should not instant kill a player.
I repeatedly hit the goblin on its head with my weapon. After several hits, it finally collapsed and dropped several copper coins.
Ding !
Combat result: You killed a small goblin, and received ten experience points.
I imdiately picked up the copper coins, and found that it had dropped three copper coins, and kept all of these into my backpack.
Seed like grinding mobs is not going to be effective if I want to get two gold coins. I estimate that if each small goblins drop 1-3 copper coins, I will need to kill 10,000 small goblins to hit my target. Holy shit!
Only, after killing this goblin, only half of my hit points remains. Luckily there is only one goblin nearby. If there is another goblin, that would be very dangerous for !
I imdiately look at my character profile. Then I face palm. I just discovered that when I entered this ga, I had not even assign the 5 points of attributes to my stats!
Apparently, each ti you level up, you get 5 points of attributes that you can assign to any stats. I just entered this ga, and I imdiately hit level 2.
Shit! No wonder it is so darn hard to kill a single goblin! To think a pro-gar like I would make such a stupid mistake.
With a mixture of sha and embarrassnt, I add all five attributes points to my strength. Right now, my attack is very weak. I need sothing to increase the damage dealt. As well, I like close combat classes. There is nothing like the feeling of getting up close and wham!
After adding 5 points of strength, my attack stats imdiately increased from 0-3 to 0-8. With this, it should be much easier to take care of small goblins!
Therefore, I choose another small goblin nearby, and smashed it on its head as usual. But this ti, the number on top of its head is a staggering.
-34
Wow! My attack is overpowered! Just 5 points of strength had made so fucking aweso!
Just another two hits of my staff, and the poor little goblin dropped dead. Wait a minute, what is this? With a Pa Ta sound, an axe and so copper coins dropped onto the floor.
[Goblin War Axe] (Quest item)
I picked it up, and was disappointed to note that that the axe could not be equipped. It did not even do a single point of damage, and is just junk. @#@@#$.
I kept the axe in my backpack and continued to hunt small goblins.
The rate of dropping of an axe is not high. I estimated that it dropped once for every five small goblins I kill.
But the thing that irks most is the massive number of players. When I managed to collect nine goblin axe, I was shocked to discover that the region was filled with players. For each goblin that spawned, several beginner staffs would wrack it on its head at the sa ti. Then it would disappear.
Sohow, I understood why the poor goblins were wearing a green helt. This ga is supposed to a cutting edge role-playing ga, but it had turned into a version of whack-a-mole. Poor goblins!
Looks like I should move on quickly. Or else I will never pull ahead.
At this ti, suddenly a small goblin spawn next to , and was looking around in a daze.
I imdiately wracked it on its head. At the sa ti, four other players imdiately rushed up and wracked it at the sa ti.
Bong Bong Bong!
With just three hits, the small goblin is slain imdiately, and drop a small goblin axe.
I was feeling proud. Luckily I was quick as lightning, and hit the goblin first, and did the most damage. If not, the kill would not belong to .
I imdiately picked up the goblin axe, and threw it into my bag. I had completed my mission at last!
The four players who were trying to steal my prey seed to be looking at in a daze, and wants to ask sothing. But I did not have ti to explain, and imdiately rushed back towards Little Flower.
After I gave her the quest items, Little Flowers face displayed an amazing smile: Thank you! You had helped find my grandpas axe. This is your reward!
Ding ~!
System notification: Congratulations for completing the quest [Goblin War Axe], you have gained 500 points of experience, two silver coins, reputation 1, and a special reward for being the first player to complete this quest [Rough Iron Sword]!
Ding ~!
System notice: You have gained a level!
Yi? A piece of equipnt at last!
I was very happy, and imdiately opened my backpack. There is a really a sword inside there.
[Rough Sword] (Rubbish Level)
Attack: 1-4
Required Level: 2
Hahaha. Now I got a level 2 item! Although it is the lowest rubbish level item, its attack is much higher than the staff in my hand.
In the ga of all items are classified as rubbish level, white colour regular item, steel item, bronze item, silver item, gold item, unique item, ghost level item, earth level item, and unique artifacts. It is rumoured that there are grades above unique artifact level, but you have to be reborn to know and to obtain these treasures.
I quickly equipped my sword, and right now, I beca the first and only man who have a sword in the beginners village!
Many other players seed to be full of envy as they looked at my equipnt. Perhaps in their eyes, I have beco the most powerful noob among them.
Now that I have hit level 3, the goblin forest is no longer suitable for . Especially after I have equipped my new weapon, and allocated all 5 points of my stats to strength. At the mont, my attack does an impressive 1-17 point of damage.
With this type of damage, if I did not fight stronger creatures, it would be a waste of my talents!
Therefore, I quickly returned to the village, and purchase ten bottles of life recovery potion. Each vial of potion can recover 100 points of life. This is expensive as shit, and each bottle cost 20 coppers. Thankfully I had two silver coins from my reward for completing the quest, and I spent them on potions.
I believe that my big investnt will bring greater rewards.
Just when I was about to leave the village, I saw that there is another soldier in the village. He seed to be looking around for help.
I imdiately walked over, and as I expected, this is an NPC. This NPC is the captain of the guards in the town. He glanced at , and spoke, Young brave man, you look like you are strong enough! Will you assist ?
I nodded my head.
The captain said: Recently, to the North of the village, a group of Fla Bats. These creatures use a strange poison. These Fla Bats poisoned many of our soldiers. I hope you can go to wipe out these bats, and return with so antidote to the poison.
I imdiately confirm that I accept this quest!
Ding ~!
System announcent: You have accepted the Quest [Clear the Field]! (Beginners Quest. Level of Difficulty: 50)
Quest Details: Clear the field north of the village of all the Fla bats, and collect 20 vials of Bats blood and give it to the Captain Ma Su!
I was shocked. Just now, in the Goblin Axe quest the level of the difficulty was 10, but now this quest is of 50 difficulty. It seems like this ti; there is a high risk of no return!
I felt a chill down my spine, but still I set out for the north of the village.
[To be continued.]
