Individualism.
No team.
Ye Ci could not help but recall the events of her past life. She was a loner and refused to join any party.
The result was that she was rejected by her team. She was rejected by everyone.
It didn't matter if Blade of Steel's team was what she wanted or liked. After her rebirth, she had no reason to reject it.
Ye Ci would never forget the words of Glory, "Fate is not in the hands of a single person. Only with the most trustworthy comrades can you stand at the top of the world."
Ye Ci took a deep breath. Since she had decided to go, there were still some things that needed to be arranged. Ye Ci immediately decided to contact Four Seas. Although she was a little embarrassed, she might not be able to attend the meeting with him.
What a coincidence.
Unexpectedly, just as Ye Ci was about to contact Four Seas, Four Seas sent a private message to Ye Ci.
"Gongzi, I'm sorry. The meeting in three days will have to be postponed. I've just received a notice from the guild. Our guild will be preparing for the Chilly Wetlands."
What a coincidence. However, after calculating the time, it was about time. Most players had already reached Level 10. This level was the entry level for Fate's first dungeon group, the Frigid Wetlands. Furthermore, the various guilds had been preparing for this dungeon group for quite some time now. It was only natural that the large guilds would start exploring the dungeon one after another.
"It's fine. I was just about to contact you. Our guild is also planning to explore the Cruel Underground Dungeon in three days."
"What a coincidence. Which guild are you from?"
"Blade of Steel."
"It's that guild that's been in the limelight recently." Four Seas looked like a veteran gamer. He knew everything that happened in the game. "You must be in the starting lineup!"
"I'm a substitute."
Ye Ci was unable to see Four Seas' expression, but she would definitely find it interesting if she could see the expression on his face. For someone like Four Seas, who had never revealed his emotions, after hearing Ye Ci's words, he was so shocked that his jaw dropped. He was speechless for a long time.
"Just how strong is Steel Blooded Battle Spear? Even you're a substitute? "Four Seas asked after a long pause.
Ye Ci didn't answer Four Seas' question directly. Firstly, she didn't know Blade of Steel's current strength. Secondly, she didn't have the habit of gossiping. Thus, he chatted with Four Seas for a while longer before hanging up.
With her worries solved, Ye Ci decided to prepare herself. Although she wasn't sure if she would be able to enter the dungeon as a substitute, she wasn't going to give up and leave.
Ye Ci didn't fight an unprepared battle. Even if it was a small monster, she had to put her heart and soul into it. This was Ye Ci's habit.
For the next two to three days, Ye Ci first gathered a lot of coarse cloth and sent it to Flutter's Sway. She asked her to help make some bandages. Then, she went to the Forest of Stone.
Although the Forest of Stone dungeon had already been cleared by a mysterious organization called "Cain's Wrath", this didn't stop Ye Ci's enthusiasm for the dungeon.
Blue equipment couldn't be compared to Purple equipment. According to Ye Ci's original attack power when she wore Blue equipment, it would be difficult for her to solo the Forest of Stone without taking any damage. However, now that she had the Venomous Scorpion equipment set and Ol 'Three's loyalty had reached 100, she could effortlessly crush the dungeon after activating a skill called "Resist".
After easily defeating the final boss of the Forest of Stone, John, Ye Ci couldn't help but whistle.
Purple equipment was indeed Purple equipment. Not only did she miss a lot less, but she also had equipment skills attached to her. It was a massacre. After all, Ye Ci wasn't confident that she could solo the Forest of Stone dungeon without taking any damage before she obtained this equipment set.
Ye Ci walked up to John's corpse and looted it. Her eyes lit up. A skill book had dropped.
Chain Shot (Level 1) Unleashes the Hunter's potential. Turn one arrow into four and attack the target consecutively. Level Required: Level 12
[Chain Shot] was one of the main damage output skills of a Hunter. At level 1, a Hunter could shoot four arrows at once. At level 15, the highest level, a Hunter could shoot twenty arrows at once. If a Critical Hit was included, the damage dealt could not be calculated with one's fingers.
Ye Ci was overjoyed when she saw the skill book. The drop rate of this skill book was 2%, but this was the first time Ye Ci had seen this skill book in her previous life. She had cleared the Forest of Stone more than 50 times, but this was the first time she had seen this skill book. She didn't know if she should say that she was unlucky or something.
She clapped her hands and the skill book turned into a few rays of white light that flew into Ye Ci's body.
Other than the two quest items "Lemmy's Rag Doll" and "John's Right Hand", there were a few other equipment drops. However, none of them were suitable for Ye Ci. Only a ring caught Ye Ci's eye.
Ring of Injustice:
Blue Equipment
Strength + 5
Stamina + 5
Intelligence + 8
Level Requirement: 12
Although it was obviously a Druil item, it was better than nothing. At least the ring gave 5 points of Strength. Ye Ci didn't think too much about it. She wore the ring on her other finger and collected the remaining equipment, potions, and gold coins before leaving the dungeon and returning to Red Lake City.
John's Right Hand was the quest item for the third phase of the side quest. It could be given to the mayor of any major city and could be exchanged for a considerable amount of reputation.
Ye Ci would definitely give such a good item to the mayor of Red Lake City.
"Oh, young Hunter, you've really impressed me!" The mayor of Red Lake City pushed his spectacles up the bridge of his nose and looked at John's right hand on the table. He took out a small handkerchief and covered his nose and mouth with disdain, "That's right, this is John's right hand! You're really a brave fellow! Alright, alright, this thing is disgusting. I'm a noble person, how can I keep looking at something like this? Hurry up and take it away. "
Ye Ci quickly picked up John's Right Hand from the table and stuffed it back into her inventory.
"Alright, alright, go look for the governor. He'll give you a reward!" The mayor stood up and walked into the house, muttering words like 'disgusting' as he walked.
Ye Ci gave him a fake bow, then immediately turned around and walked into the governor's room.
It was obvious that the governor was more considerate than the mayor. Not only did he generously accept Ye Ci's' John's Right Hand ', he also gave her a generous reward.
Red Lake City's reputation was 2000 points, 1000 gold coins, and 2 Talent Points.
Ye Ci's reputation in Red Lake City rose from 'Friendly' to 'Intimate', which meant that she could accept many quests that she couldn't accept before. Most importantly, she could finally unlock the military rank system in Red Lake City.
The military rank system was already in place. As long as a player's reputation in a city reached the level of 'Intimate', they could unlock the military rank system and accept some small quests issued by the city. Of course, if a player continued to rise in rank, they might even be able to receive a Celestial quest.
"A group of bandits has appeared northwest of Red Lake City. Go and investigate their background." The governor then issued Ye Ci's next side quest. Ye Ci accepted the quest without hesitation.
Following that, the governor issued another quest, "Young Huntress, you've done a lot for Red Lake City. We've all seen it with our own eyes. The citizens of Red Lake City will remember you. Although you've only joined the city not long ago, I believe that you truly love this city. I hereby invite you to officially become a citizen of Red Lake City. Do you accept?"
Ye Ci agreed without hesitation.
In Fate, a player's City-recalling Stone could be bound to any city, but a player could only become a citizen of a city. For the sake of their future development, they had to consider carefully. It would be a great loss if they made the wrong choice.
Some cities were located in maps with rich vegetation. These cities were suitable for Apothecaries and Cooks. Some cities were located in maps with rich mineral resources. These maps were suitable for Smithing, Mining, or Architects. Some cities were located in dungeons. These cities were suitable for guilds and combat players.
Therefore, the choice of which city to become a citizen was crucial for a player's future development. There were also many players who did not understand this principle in the early stages of the game. They had no choice but to pay a hefty fee to change cities in the later stages of the game.
Ye Ci chose Red Lake City because there were no City-recalling Stones bound to Steel-Blooded Battle Spear members. Another important reason was that this city would become one of the 10 most prosperous cities in Fate.
Even though Red Lake City was located in a remote area with very few players, in the near future, a few large scale dungeons of level 70 and above would be opened in the uncharted areas around Red Lake City. Not only that, but the scenery around Red Lake City was beautiful, and there were plenty of plants and animals. Moreover, there were a few maps not far from Red Lake City that were rich in minerals. It was truly a good place with the right time, right place, and right people.
Ye Ci would never forget that in a few years' time, the empty Red Lake City would be filled with people. Players would even line up to fight for the seats.
"Congratulations on becoming a citizen of Red Lake City." The official's face immediately became amiable after Ye Ci agreed. It made Ye Ci feel a sense of closeness to her family.
Ye Ci's body emitted a dazzling golden light, and the system immediately began to broadcast.
"After a long journey, young Hunter Gongzi You has finally found the warmth of a family in Red Lake City. You have decided to join Red Lake City and become a citizen of Red Lake City! Congratulations! "_ _ _ _ _
