Zhang Yang laughed and said, "I'm not riding a horse. I'm riding a bear!"
Unfortunately, the NPCs did not appreciate his lame joke. They roared and charged at him.
Zealous Believer (Normal, Humanoid)
Level: 85
Health Points: 8,500
Armor: 80
Note: Ince Brook's most loyal believer.
Although these were all normal monsters, and Zhang Yang was not afraid no matter how many came, the tragedy was that these monsters had green names! In other words, Zhang Yang could only take a beating and not fight back. What the heck was this!?
He hurriedly patted the golden-eared bear king and ran to the other end of the village. However, when the big, white bear reached the exit at the other end of the village, there was a sudden bang, as if it had hit an invisible wall. The big, white bear was forcefully jolted back, and the huge impact almost sent him flying.
Zhang Yang understood that if he wanted to meet Ince Brook, he had to follow the rules here!
He leaped off his mount and said with a smile, "Everyone, there's no need to be so nervous. Actually, it's because I admire Ince Brook that I specially came here! "
"It's Lord Ince Brook!"
Zhang Yang broke into a sweat and hurriedly said, "… Lord Ince Brook!"
Only then did the villagers put away their weapons. A villager with "Sounis" above his head said, "Young man, Lord Ince Brook is the son of the God of Fire. He listens to the God of Fire's decree at all times. You are not qualified to meet him!"
Sounis (Elite, Humanoid)
Level: 86
Health Points: 85000
Armor: 450
He was the only Elite-level existence among the NPCs. It seemed like he was the leader of the villagers.
Zhang Yang said, "Then what should I do to meet the great son of the God of Fire?"
Sounis looked at Zhang Yang and said, "Young man, don't you think you should first announce your origins?"
"My name is Zhan Yu, an adventurer from Baiyu City. My occupation is a warrior! During my adventures, I accidentally learned of Ince Brook's … His Lordship's deeds. In order to pay my respects to him, I specially came all the way here! "In any case, Zhang Yang was just bragging and didn't need to add any taxes. He praised Ince Brook greatly.
But Sounis and the others were very happy, even happier than if they were praising themselves. All of them were beaming with joy. This was how a dungeon should be.
Sounis smiled and looked at Zhang Yang with a much gentler gaze: "Young man, you have made a very wise decision. Lord Ince Brook is the son of the God of Fire. His every decision represents a divine decree. To be able to serve under him is a blessing accumulated from our past lives!"
F * ck, it's clearly a westernized background, but he even said things like "it's a blessing from his past life". It's too oriental!
Zhang Yang hurriedly said, "So, please tell me how I can be summoned by Lord Ince Brook and fulfill my wish!" Yes, his wish was to kill Ince Brook and obtain the fifth fragment of the Void Key!
If Sounis knew what Zhang Yang was thinking, he would definitely gather the villagers to fight the blasphemer!
But he nodded in satisfaction and said, "Lord Ince Brook will open the altar every month and issue the divine decree of the gods! However, only the most devout believers are qualified to participate in such a sacred event. Zhan Yu, you have to be firm in your faith to receive such an honor! "
"Ding! You have unlocked a new reputation: Son of the God of Fire. Current reputation level: Neutral! "
"Ding! When your reputation as the son of the God of Fire is raised to Worship, you will be able to meet Ince Brook! "
Zhang Yang couldn't help but feel a headache. Farming reputation was the most boring thing. Just think of the Centaur reputation he had in the past, it was so tiring that he almost vomited!
But he had no choice. He had already collected four key fragments, so he couldn't give up halfway! Moreover, just collecting the key fragments was already so troublesome and lengthy, so it was easy to foresee how generous the final mission reward would be!
This would definitely surpass any main storyline mission Zhang Yang had done before!
At this moment, a blue exclamation mark suddenly appeared above Sounis' head, indicating that he had issued a mission, and it was repeatable.
Zhang Yang spoke to Sounis again and received a bunch of trivial missions, such as killing a few tigers to ensure the safety of the village, gathering some rare fruits to offer to Ince Brook, and chopping some firewood to replenish the village's stock.
These small missions were all D-rank, so it was clear that they were not difficult to complete. However, the reputation reward was not much, 250 points per mission. That was fine. Anyway, the game time ratio was 3: 1, so he had a lot of time to spend on this.
But the tragedy was that these missions could be repeated for a limited number of days. In other words, each mission could only be completed once a day.
Zhang Yang did a quick calculation. Sounis had provided a total of ten daily quests, and each quest was worth 250 Reputation Points. It would take him two days to reach 'Friendly' Reputation Points, four days to reach 'Respected' Reputation Points, nine days to reach 'Reverence', and seventeen days to reach 'Worship'!
In other words, it would take as long as six days in real life!
This was the disadvantage of Reputation. There was no way to rush it, so he could only grind it slowly!
Zhang Yang left the village and began to sweep through the missions. These 10 daily missions required him to run from east to west, and from south to north. The mission locations were not concentrated, so he had to waste as much time as possible!
But after Zhang Yang went back and forth, he found that the center of the island was about seven to eight square kilometers. There was an air wall blocking him, so even if he used Burrow or Void Shadow, it would not work. It seemed that the system had plugged all the loopholes and required players to max out their reputation points before they could enter.
Fortunately, although farming reputation points was boring, there was no lack of herbs and monsters on the island. Zhang Yang picked herbs and killed monsters along the way, so he did not delay his leveling. As long as he did not delay his leveling, he could slowly farm reputation points. There was no hurry.
After spending about two hours, Zhang Yang completed the 10 daily missions. When he returned to the village and handed in the missions, his reputation immediately reached Neutral 25003000.
At this time, Zhang Yang suddenly realized that not everyone came here for the Void Key fragment. The system could not possibly create reputation points just for him! If that was the case, there must be other uses for reputation points. Every level should have a corresponding reputation item for sale!
He quickly searched in the village and soon found a reputation merchant. However, the reputation merchant here had a better name: God's Priest.
[Martus, God's Priest] (Normal, Humanoid)
Level: 85
Health Points: 8,500
Armor: 80
After a meaningless conversation with the middle-aged merchant, Martus opened the list of goods to Zhang Yang.
Eh, there were a few good items.
Like the Enhancement Gem, the Riding Pet Skill Book "Sprint", and a few pictures of various business skills!
Enhancement Gems were very special. They could enhance gems of various colors that were already embedded on the player. For example, the Level 3 Stamina Gem that Zhang Yang had obtained originally increased stamina by 50 points. After being "enhanced", it could increase the additional stamina by 10% to 100%.
Just like embedding gems, there was a chance of failure when enhancing gems. Whether the effect increased by 10% or 100% was completely random! Therefore, if players insisted on increasing the effect by 100%, they would have to keep throwing enhancement gems into the gems!
Enhancement gems required reputation points, but it was not something that could be given away with reputation points. Players still had to pay for it!
To put it bluntly, it was to throw money at the chance of a high chance of success!
As for the skill "Sprint", it was much more practical. It could double the speed of a player's Riding Pet for a short period of time. Whether it was during pursuit or escape, this skill was very useful!
Currently, Zhang Yang only had one business skill that required recipes. He had his eyes on a recipe that increased Nature Resistance. It was a Level 4 Nature Resistance Potion. After using it, it increased Nature Resistance by 5000 points for two minutes. It was very powerful.
Of course, these good items could only be purchased with 'Worship' reputation.
Naturally, good things could not be enjoyed alone. Zhang Yang quickly sent a message to Han Ying Xue and the others, asking them to rush over to farm reputation points together. Of course, this could not avoid the suspicion that he wanted to drag the others down with him. After all, it was too painful to farm reputation points alone.
Lured by the reputation item posted by Zhang Yang, Infinite Starlight and the others were like cats that had smelled blood, and rushed over. The most convenient was naturally Han Ying Xue. After Zhang Yang put on the Yearning Talisman, she teleported over with a whoosh.
After a long time, the others arrived one after another.
As soon as Sun Xinyu arrived, she said coldly to Han Ying Xue, "Can you return it to me now?"
Han Ying Xue stuck out her tongue and said, "The Yearning Talisman is not yours. Why should I return it to you!"
Zhang Yang was sweating profusely and said, "Witch, you're already so old. Why are you still pretending to be young and sticking out your tongue like a little girl!" The two women were obviously at loggerheads. He did not want his own people to cause internal strife, so he hurriedly came out to make a joke!
Sun Xinyu looked at Han Ying Xue and said, "Zhang Yang gave it to me!"
"Hmph, that's what you said! Back then, in order to seize the territory, the stupid Yu gave you the Yearning Talisman first so that you could use it at the last moment. It was not like he really wanted to give it to you. Shameless! "Han Ying Xue curled her lips and said.
Sun Xinyu's eyes turned cold and said, "Give it back to me!"
"No way!"
The two women looked at Zhang Yang at the same time and said, "Who do you think I should give it to?"
Zhang Yang felt a headache coming on. In his original opinion, this Yearning Talisman was indeed better given to Han Ying Xue. With one tank and one supplement, they could kill most of the bosses! However, Sun Xinyu had indeed helped a lot. Whether it was the fight for the territory that day or the order to attack the monsters in the Korean and Japanese regions, she had played a great role!
Moreover, when the two women were fighting, the man who intervened would be cannon fodder. He might be so miserable that he wouldn't even know how he died!
The wisest thing to do was to turn around and run! However, as the captain and guild leader, he naturally had to coordinate the conflicts in the team. These two women were the absolute main force!
"Why bother? Isn't it just an accessory?" Zhang Yang said, "Whoever needs it can just use it!"
"No way!"
The two women were very united at this time and said coldly at the same time.
"Then you guys play rock, scissors, and paper. Whoever wins gets it!" Zhang Yang came up with a rotten idea.
"Alright!"
The two women looked at each other. When their eyes met, there was a faint burst of intense sparks.
"Anemic warrior, you really have a foot in two boats!" Wei Yan'er watched with relish from the side. She wished she could take out a bag of snacks to nibble on.
Zhang Yang sighed and said, "Why aren't you reading? Why are you here?"
"Hey, it's the middle of the night and you're still asking me to read. You're even more stingy than Zhou Bapi!" Wei Yan'er curled her lips.
"How about it? What kind of specialized school are you planning to apply for?"
"Bah, I'm smart and quick-witted. I'm definitely one!"
While the two were talking, Sun Xinyu and Han Ying Xue had already started rock, scissors, and paper. After a round of rock against rock and scissors against scissors, Sun Xinyu finally wrapped Han Ying Xue's rock with cloth.
"… Two out of three!"
"Alright!"
The rock-paper-scissors game continued. This time, Han Ying Xue's luck was off the charts.
"… Three out of five!" Sun Xinyu said.
"Alright!"
…
"Four out of seven!"
…
"Five out of nine!"
…
"Eleven out of twenty-one!"
…
The two girls were in high spirits. The number of battles soared. Even Wei Yan'er could not stand it anymore. She kept yawning at the side.
"Let's go. I'll go pick some herbs. You go do the Reputation Quest!" Zhang Yang said to Wei Yan'er.
"Alright!"
The two of them walked away. Sun Xinyu and Han Ying Xue were still staring at each other. Their battle energy surged as they played the rock-paper-scissors game vigorously!
Zhang Yang did not know whether the two girls would win or lose in the end. He only knew that from that day onwards, Han Ying Xue and Sun Xinyu would play two fists whenever they met. They probably wanted to make this their lifelong career.
Time passed slowly. Everyone's Reputation was constantly accumulating. From neutral to friendly, from friendly to respectful, and then to reverence.
Because they all started to farm Reputation on the same day, and the daily quests also limited everyone's Reputation to the same speed. Until the 19th of March, after they handed in their last quest, a green light flashed on their bodies. Their Reputation in the Son of Fire had reached Worship!
At the same time, Zhang Yang's body also flashed with a golden light. He happened to reach Level 81!
The experience needed to go from Level 80 to Level 90 was about 20% more than the experience needed to go from Level 70 to Level 80. With Zhang Yang's farming speed, it would take about ten days (real time) to level up.
"Congratulations!" Sounis looked at Zhang Yang and the others with a gratified expression. "You have successfully passed through layers of tests. You are now Lord Ince Brook's most loyal believers! Also, I have good news to tell you. Lord Ince Brook has also heard about you foreigners. He plans to meet you! "
After so many days of hard work, this moment had finally come!
Zhang Yang was so moved that he was about to cry. He said, "Sounis, where is Lord Ince Brook?"
"Of course he is in the Fire God's Temple. He is constantly listening to the Fire God's oracle!" Sounis said. "Go. Lord Ince Brook is already waiting for you. It is extremely rude to keep him waiting!" If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
