Yunzhong Mudi's footsteps were steady, but he had another thought in his mind.
Not to the girl in front of him, but to the quest that she was about to complete. There's a quest here too? This was something that Yunzhong Mudi had never heard of. Since they were both warriors, perhaps this would be a quest that would be very helpful to him? Yunzhong Mudi thought to himself that he should get the quest out of her first. After all, getting information about Gu Fei was to strengthen the guild, but getting a quest would strengthen him instead.
Given the choice of letting the guild be in the limelight or himself, Yunzhong Mudi chose the latter without hesitation.
"Ahem!" Yunzhong Mudi coughed, attracting the girl's attention.
"What are you doing here, beautiful?" Yunzhong Mudi asked casually.
"Quest," the girl replied. It was common for girls to be hit on, especially in the game where everyone was thick-skinned. The girls were already used to it.
"Oh, what kind of quest is it?" Yunzhong Mudi continued to ask casually.
"Wheat in the Soil," the girl replied.
Every quest had a name, and Yunzhong Mudi had never heard of the quest that the girl mentioned. Although the name of the mission sounded simple, it was obviously very stupid to judge the meaning of the mission by its name. It was just like how a person's name didn't represent how knowledgeable they were.
Yunzhong Mudi asked carefully with excitement, "How do I get the quest?"
"Talk to the people here," the girl said as she knocked on the door.
An old man with a hunched back opened the door. The light of experience in his eyes made Yunzhong Mudi's heart skip a beat. Old people in their twilight years usually liked to leave behind rich legacies. This idea was recognized by many game designers, so they often created mysterious old men to issue mysterious quests. Looking at the girl in front of him, who would have thought that there was such a quest here if someone hadn't knocked on the door by chance?
"Young man, do me a favor. I have some wheat scattered in the market. Can you help me find them? Remember, you must find them within five minutes, or else the wheat might be picked up by someone else, "the old man issued the quest to the girl.
The girl quickly turned around and left. Yunzhong Mudi tried to follow her, but the old man ignored him and closed the door.
Mudi of Yunzhong hurriedly knocked on the door. He was worried that the mission would not be given to him because the girl had accepted it.
The door opened, and the old man appeared again. Looking at Mudi in the clouds, he repeated what he had said to the young lady. Yun Zhong Mudi agreed without hesitation. Immediately, the quest 'Wheat in the Soil' appeared in the quest window.
There didn't seem to be anything special about the mission description. Yunzhong Mudi was puzzled as he walked towards the market.
The market that the NPCs were talking about was naturally not the Trade Street formed by the players themselves. Instead, it was a place where some System Merchants concentrated on selling System goods. This place was not as lively as the Trading Street, but there were still many players coming and going. Mudi of Yunzhong searched around the market, but he couldn't find any wheat.
Was it because the girl had already picked up the wheat, so he couldn't find it? When Mudi of Yunzhong arrived at the market, he saw the girl leaving.
After wandering for more than five minutes, there was a system prompt, and the mission was marked as' Failed '.
"It's going to be difficult!" Mudi of Yunzhong was visibly moved. At this moment, he saw the girl appear in the market again.
Seeing Mudi of Yunzhong, the girl smiled. "You accepted the quest?"
Mudi of Yunzhong nodded.
"Did you find the wheat?"
Mudi of Yunzhong shook his head.
"Hehe!" A strange smile appeared on the girl's face, and she calmly said to Mudi of Yunzhong, "Use your brain!"
Mudi of Yunzhong carefully pondered the meaning of the girl's words, but he still couldn't understand it.
A minute later, the girl asked him, "Have you thought of it?"
Mudi of Yunzhong shook his head in confusion.
"Hehe, what's the name of the quest?" the girl asked.
"Wheat in the Soil," Mudi of Yunzhong replied.
"Bingo!" The girl applauded him.
Mudi of Yunzhong continued to be confused.
"That's why the wheat should be found in the soil!" the girl said.
"Huh?" Mudi of Yunzhong was stunned.
"Look!" As the girl spoke, she walked to a corner and grabbed a piece of rag sticking out of the soil. With a tug, a small cloth bag fell into her hand.
"That's the wheat in the soil!" the girl said cheerfully to Mudi of Yunzhong.
"Good luck!" The girl said as she turned around and left.
Mudi of Yunzhong was dumbfounded. He realized that he had complicated a simple problem from the very beginning. This quest seemed to be a fairly basic 'find something' quest. This kind of quest had always been criticized by the players because the system randomly hid the quest items. However, the girl seemed to have repeated this quest repeatedly. If it was such a simple quest, why would she do it?
Mudi felt that there must be something special about it, so he gave up on this failed quest and returned to the old man to collect it again.
He knew the target this time, but how could a small piece of cloth hidden in the soil be so easy to find? In the end, he failed again. This went on for the seventh time. Mudi of Yunzhong, who knew every inch of the market like the back of his hand, finally found the piece of cloth within five minutes.
Mudi of Yunzhong let out an excited roar and hurried back to the task office, returning the small bag of wheat to the old man with great excitement.
"Thank you, young man. You've been a great help!" the old man said as he handed over the reward. Mudi took a look and saw that it was ten silver coins.
"How could this be …" Mudi of Yunzhong mumbled to himself. Was this all the reward? Mudi of Yunzhong was unwilling to accept it. If this was the only reward, why would the girl keep repeating it? While he was thinking about this, Mudi looked around and realized that the girl was gone. He quickly sent a message to the guild member in charge of keeping an eye on her, but the member was even more confused than he was. "Boss, didn't you already contact her?"
"Ugh … this …" Mudi of Yunzhong didn't know how to answer. He had temporarily abandoned his dream of strengthening the guild for his own selfish desire.
The third attack ended with the disappearance of the target. At the same time, it left Mudi with deep doubts.
"Why would she accept such a simple quest so many times?"
This question lingered in Mudi's mind for a long time. It was a pity that his two guild members were no longer keeping an eye on him. Otherwise, they would have told him, "Guild Leader, you also repeated it seven times …"
But he still had to get down to business. Mudi of Yunzhong continued to receive reports from his subordinates. Someone said that he saw a girl with Amethyst Rebirth wandering around the auction house, and there was no one in the auction house at the moment. Mudi rushed to the auction house after hearing the news and retreated after only five seconds.
The two guild members guarding outside the door were puzzled.
Mudi of Yunzhong was annoyed. "Bribing the Waist Dancer with money? Do you two have any brains? "
Mudi of Yunzhong's Metal Elemental attack ended in failure, and it was a failure that went for wool and came home shorn.
"Hmph, you just want to know his name. It's not a big deal. How dare you try to buy it with money? Who do you think we are?!" said one of the girls that Mudi of Yun Zhong had approached.
Mudi of Yunzhong was heartbroken! If he had found this girl from the beginning, he would have found her name without even spending money. But now, due to the second girl he came into contact with exposing him, the other party was extremely displeased. She was no longer willing to speak Gu Fei's name, and even showed the deepest disdain towards Cloud Central Mudi and his guild.
He didn't know what made him cry even more.
Gu Fei quietly went online in the afternoon. Looking at the flyers that were still flying all over the city, Gu Fei felt that it wasn't easy for them to look for him for such a long time. He originally wanted to take the initiative to contact them. In the end, because of this incident, the girls were all trying to persuade Gu Fei.
"Hmph, so what if you're rich?" These words came out of the mouth of the number one money warrior in the game, Waist Dancer, and it sounded particularly powerful. Even Waist Dancer had such an attitude. Mudi of Yunzhong was just a wretched person.
"Money isn't everything!" The girls shouted in unison, and with their usual spirit of straying from the topic, they were getting further and further away from the topic.
"What are you guys talking about!" Gu Fei, who was dragged into a discussion in the guild channel as soon as he went online, was confused.
July spoke on behalf of the guild, and roughly explained the situation.
"Uh, there are quite a few guilds that want to pull you over. If you want to leave, remember to let them know," July said at the end. Whenever she stood on the side of the guild, July always had a business-like expression. Even though she approved of Gu Fei and didn't want him to leave, she showed that she respected his decision.
Every member of the guild could be happy. This was July's greatest wish. If someone felt that there was a better choice, she wouldn't stop them. Because the guild would disband if Gu Fei left, she had already forced Gu Fei to stay once. Adding on the matter of Non-smiler, the guild had unknowingly received a lot of benefits from Gu Fei.
"I hope he won't leave …" July thought.
