At the moment he put on the helmet, the sounds of horse hooves galloping in the game drew closer. They became clearer and more frequent.
"HAH!"
No one knew who had started the chapter of blood and sabers flashing in the boundless darkness! The whistling sounds of sabers and swords breaking through the rain sounded as if they were right beside him. They woke up abruptly, swung about, and intersected with each other. It was as if there was an intricate and chaotic battle in the dark, but it was also orderly. It was neither too fast nor too slow, and they advanced and retreated in an orderly manner. It was as if someone was retreating while handling the sabers, swords, and hidden weapons that came from all directions!
Elites!
Chen Kaixin listened attentively for a while, and he noticed something in his heart.
He remembered that he had heard this when he first entered the game, but at that time, since he had just entered the game, he did not have any concept of what was going on. When he heard this, he thought that it was the dubbing from some great wuxia movie, and he got addicted to it before he truly entered the game.
But by the looks of it now …
Chen Kaixin did not even need to open his eyes. From the unique sounds contained in each skill and the tremors from the collisions, blurry figures quickly rose in his mind.
An elite who fought against eight people by himself gradually appeared from the encirclement of different weapons and fists.
There was no need to doubt Chen Kaixin's memory.
During the three years in World of Martial Arts, Chen Kaixin had fought against countless elites to chase after the strongest people in the legends — One Emperor, Two Empresses, Three Kings, Seven Dukes, and Thirteen Heroes. He practiced many martial arts from different sects, and he had a photographic memory for the qi cultivation techniques and skills unique to many sects. In fact, he could even use them with ease.
The martial arts he saw at the beginning of the game were not ultimate martial arts, but neither were they rare and obscure techniques in the world. Aside from the martial arts used by the person at the center being a little mixed and strange, the eight people surrounding him used Shaolin Temple's Arhat Fist, Wudang Sect's Clear Wind Sword, Emei Sect's Fallen Leaf Cloak Sword Technique, Kongtong Sect's Heaven's Leg Breaker, Kunlun Sect's Soft Palm, Mount Hua Sect's Noble Sword, Beggar's Dog Beating Staff Technique, and Tang Sect's Scattered Flower Palm.
Beggar's Dog Beating Staff Technique was the highest level, but the other martial arts were rather basic. However, even though their martial arts were low, their realms were extraordinary. Each of them had reached the point where they could wield something heavy as if it was light, and they could use it with ease.
They drew back and released their attacks, and as they advanced and retreated, they displayed the air of a grandmaster!
However …
The besieged man was obviously more powerful. In the face of the strong attacks of the eight grandmasters, he was still calm and at ease. Every move he made had no fixed movement to refer to and was traceless. He was like an antelope hanging its horn, but he blocked all the attacks just in time, giving off a feeling of being impenetrable.
As Chen Kaixin listened, he became even more engrossed in the story.
He didn't notice that he could already see the situation of the battle with his eyes, and he could clearly see the white-clothed man fending off the attacks of the eight people with a relaxed and elegant posture, like a cool breeze passing through the mountains.
Just as he was engrossed in watching, an unexpected clap of thunder rang out, and the images around him suddenly disappeared.
Chen Kaixin was stunned. It was only then that he noticed that his attributes had already appeared. The scene changed, and he appeared on a wide street.
"What a clever and adorable little boy."
A middle-aged woman who looked like an NPC happened to pass by. When she saw Chen Kaixin suddenly appear, she stopped moving and flashed him an amiable smile. "There have been a lot of martial artists in the city lately. Boy, don't run around on your own. Where's your house?"
Chen Kaixin looked up and stared at the smiling woman. He was surprised and delighted!
This was actually the most normal quest that could be triggered. Only new players with high Affinity and Comprehension could trigger it within ten minutes after they entered the game.
But it was very strange. He remembered that his Affinity was very normal, so the woman in front of him should not have remembered him!
Could it be that his luck had improved?
Even though he was puzzled, he was still very excited, and he did not intend to miss this rare chance to train.
The heartless game had given him the identity of a homeless child whose parents had died. As long as he answered the question and told the truth, he would be taken away by a sympathetic NPC, and he would skip the arduous task of looking for work and doing chores. While he worked, he could learn normal martial arts. If he was lucky, he might even be taken in as a disciple and be taught martial arts.
"My name is Happy. I don't know where my parents are. I'm homeless."
"Ah."
The woman who passed by the road was indeed merciful. She let out a long sigh and patted the head of the boy, who was not even 1.4 feet tall, in sympathy. "You must have gotten lost in the chaos of war. Poor child, this world … Sigh … Boy, if you're willing, you can come with me to the mansion in front. We're recruiting servants over the next few days. If you come, you can help with chores and chores. You won't have a problem with your food and lodging. You can even get some pay at the end of the month.
What do you think? "
Under the guidance of the kind-hearted woman who passed by, they soon arrived in front of a grand mansion with two lions guarding the entrance.
When he looked up, he saw three large words carved on a huge board with silver edges.
[Murong Mansion!]
When she saw the stunned and shocked expression on the boy's face, the kind-hearted woman bent down and said with a smile, "Happy, from now on, you will work in Murong Mansion.
"Happy, from now on, you will work in the Murong Clan. I'll bring you to meet the butler of the mansion and have him arrange something easier for you."
But she did not know that the boy beside her was not shocked because of the mansion's grandeur. Instead, he was shocked that the kind-hearted woman had actually brought him to the famous Murong Mansion.
It was the Murong Mansion, a super aristocratic family that countless players tried everything they could to get in and do odd jobs to learn martial arts.
'What?
You don't know?
'What kind of international joke is this? Right now, even some foreigners are shaking their heads and singing the song "An eye for an eye". Even in their dreams, they want to learn Shifting Stars. There is no martial arts fan who is unfamiliar with this ultimate technique.'
While the kind-hearted woman spoke, Happy felt as if his brain had short-circuited. He could not understand how he had been struck by such a huge pie in the sky.
"Silly boy, don't just stand there. Come with me."
The kind-hearted woman held Happy's hand and walked into the Murong Mansion.
"These flowers and plants are expensive. Take it easy. If you damage them, don't even think about staying here anymore." The butler of the Murong Mansion was in the courtyard outside. With a stern expression, he was instructing a few servant girls and manservants to repair the flowers and plants in the courtyard.
Even though they were dressed in the uniform of servants, Happy could tell from their eyes that they were the first batch of players who had squeezed into the Murong Mansion.
"Butler, this is …"
The kind-hearted woman dragged Happy over and told him about his situation. It quickly attracted the attention of the servant girls and manservants. The seven of them looked surprised and shocked.
It had to be known.
They had spent a lot of effort to get in. This was the first time they saw a player being brought into the Murong Mansion by an NPC.
Happy ignored their gazes and swept his gaze over the Murong Mansion's courtyard. All sorts of expensive flowers and plants were placed by the road and in the long corridor. There were a lot of them. In the distance was an elegant woman in white. She sat in a pavilion at a corner of the courtyard. She held a fluffy white rabbit in her arms, and her posture was incredibly beautiful.
"The lady of the Murong Mansion? Or the lady of the Wang Family? "
When curiosity appeared on Happy's face, the kind-hearted woman had already finished explaining his basic situation.
The butler sized him up in satisfaction before he nodded.
"Your name is Happy, right? Very good. I can tell at first glance that you're a smart boy. Hmm, from today onwards, you're a member of the Murong Mansion. Your daily mission is to serve the pets that the lady in the backyard rears. Come with me."
Happy instantly smiled happily.
