In the outskirts of Quanzhou, a group of young men and women were leveling. In the group, there were warriors such as Generals, Knights, and Bailiffs. At the same time, there were Healers and Taoist Priests. It was a standard leveling team.
Generals were similar to Knights in the West. Without a mount, they could only walk on their two legs like Warriors. Knights were standard Warriors. No matter if they were Swordsmen or Machetes, they were good at close combat. Bailiffs were a profession with Chinese characteristics. The weapons they used were water and fire sticks and iron chains.
Healers didn't have any healing skills. Instead, they were more of a battlefield doctor's role, focusing on first aid. Taoist Priests didn't know magic either. They used talismans as their main attack, similar to Western mages.
This group of people were wearing coarse hemp clothes given by the system. They were holding the cheapest white grade weapons. Five people working together to kill a level 3 Wild Dog was a bit difficult. The team didn't have good teamwork, so they were often in danger. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that this was a group of new players.
After spending a lot of effort, the team finally killed the Wild Dog. Everyone got a pitiful few dozen experience points according to their contributions. The Healer bandaged the injured Bailiffs. The Taoist Priests went up to collect the Wild Dog's fur.
The party leader was a young general in his mid-twenties. He looked a little domineering and arrogant, and he held a Bronze-ranked iron spear in his hand. It was also the best weapon in the party. He smiled bitterly and said, "Oh my, this lousy game is just too realistic. Leveling up is so tiring. God knows how long it will take to level up."
"Yeah, I don't know when big brother will get a Village Creation Order. I heard that after building a territory, with the help of the militia, leveling will be much easier. "The beautiful young Knight said.
The entire party was formed with these two as the core. The others were just assisting them in leveling.
"It's easier said than done. It's our fault that we entered the game too late. I heard that the first 10,000 players who chose to build a territory can directly get a Village Creation Order. Now we can only try our luck and see which gold farming group has extra Village Creation Orders. "The young General obviously didn't have any expectations.
Just as the female swordsman was about to reply, the sound of a system notification rang in her ears.
System Notification: You have an anonymous package. Do you want to accept it?
Anonymous package? The female swordsman's heart skipped a beat. She quickly glanced at her surroundings. After confirming that it was safe, she said, "Accept!"
A white light flashed, and a huge bag appeared on the ground. It was wrapped in sackcloth, and it was impossible to see what was inside. The female swordsman did not plan to look at it. She immediately put the parcel into her storage bag.
"Who sent you this package? It looks like there are a lot of things in it," the young general asked curiously.
The female swordsman glanced at the items in the bag and was shocked. She then pretended as if nothing had happened and said, "Second brother, let's go back to the Quanzhou Prefecture first. It's not safe here." The female swordsman was obviously very alert. After all, they were in the wilderness, and murders and robberies were common occurrences. It was not a good place to check a bag.
"Alright, let's go back." The young man knew that this little sister of his always had a sense of propriety and wouldn't speak without thinking. This package was definitely not ordinary.
The group returned to the Quan Zhou Prefecture. This was a temporarily rented courtyard house. There were all kinds of people going in and out of the courtyard. At a glance, there were no less than two hundred people.
"Second brother, third sister, why did you come back so early today?" In the courtyard house, a young scholar in his late twenties asked curiously when he saw the few people who had returned early.
"Big brother, let's talk in the room," the young general said.
"Okay!" The young scholar could tell that something was amiss. He immediately led the two into the secret room.
After entering the secret room, the young general became much more casual. He smiled and said, "Little sister, take out the package. Why are you acting so mysterious? Just what kind of good stuff is it? Let me broaden my horizons."
"Hmph, I guarantee that it will blind you. Don't be envious after you see it." The female swordsman also became mischievous. She took out the package from her storage bag and placed it on the table in the middle of the room.
"Heh, you're underestimating your second brother!" the young general said as he walked over and opened the package. Immediately, a large pile of items appeared before the three of them. There were skill books, secret manuals, weapons, equipment, and ten gold coins.
Looking at the pile of items, the young general was dumbfounded. Even the calm young scholar could not help but exclaim, "Third sister, who gave this to you? Why are they so generous?"
The female swordsman was naturally Song Jia. Her name was Like a Dream in the game. The two in front of her were her real brothers. They were also the representatives of the Song Consortium in the game. One of them was a scholar, while the other was a warrior. The older brother, Song Wen, chose the territory construction mode, while the younger brother, Song Wu, chose the individual adventure mode.
This courtyard house was the temporary stronghold of the Song Consortium in the game. The two hundred or so players in the courtyard were either members of the Song Consortium or professional players that they had spent a lot of money to recruit in real life.
"Hehe, this is a secret. Don't worry about it," Song Jia said proudly.
Song Wu picked up the fine iron sword and drooled. He said enviously, "Oh my god, this is a gold grade weapon. Currently, only the leaders of the top ten mercenary groups have top-notch weapons. Little sister, you're just a level 2 gamer. It's a waste to have this weapon. "
"Hehe, second brother, you're just jealous."
Song Wu picked up the leather armor set and exclaimed again. "Oh my god, a silver grade set. Sob, I'm wearing coarse linen clothes." Song Wu was clearly hurt. Compared to the equipment in front of him, he was like a beggar.
Song Jia stood at the side and watched her second brother show off with a smile. Her heart was filled with sweetness. She was obviously very satisfied with the gift Ouyang Shuo had prepared for her.
Song Wen picked up the Yue Maiden Swordplay Manual and said calmly, "Second brother, you really don't know what's good for you. The value of this swordplay manual is definitely not lower than that gold grade fine iron sword. A rough estimate is that this batch of items is worth at least 200 gold coins. Third sister, are you really not going to say anything to big brother? "
Actually, how could Song Wen know what's good for him? This swordplay manual, after Gaia announced the secret of the real and fake manuals a year later, would be hard to find even with money. It was only now that such a real manual was listed on the material trading platform at a low price that no one was interested in. If it wasn't for the fact that Ouyang Shuo didn't have any spare cash on hand, he would have started sweeping up the goods on the market.
"Wow, it's so valuable!" Although Song Jia wasn't as sensitive to the price of items as her brother, Song Wen, she still had an intuitive understanding of the value of gold coins. With the current market price of 1 copper coin for 2 credits, 200 gold coins was equivalent to 400 million credits, and there was no market for it.
Ouyang Shuo, Ouyang Shuo, what kind of person are you? You're so ordinary in real life, but you can give me such an expensive item in the game so casually. You even said that it was a greeting gift for me when I first entered the game. That means you must be extraordinary in the game.
"Third sister, third sister!"
"Ah, ha, big brother, sorry about that. I was distracted." Song Jia blushed slightly, "Big brother, don't ask about this friend. I promised to keep it a secret."
"Forget it, big brother won't force you. Just have fun." Song Wen doted on this sister a lot. Seeing that she wasn't willing to talk, he didn't force her. It wasn't a bad thing anyway.
"Thank you, big brother!" Song Jia couldn't hold back any longer. She impatiently learned the four skill books and the Yue Maiden Swordsmanship Manual. She then put on her leather armor, picked up her Fine Iron Sword, and made a sword dance. Her valiant and heroic image of a heroine was fixed on the paper, making Song Wu drool.
"Ah, this Yue Maiden Swordsmanship Manual is really unusual. After learning it, my mind is filled with sword techniques. It's like it's real," Song Jia said doubtfully.
"Maybe it's because the game is too realistic, giving you such an illusion." Of course, Song Wen didn't know the truth of the secret manual, so he could only make such a guess.
"Oh!" Although Song Jia didn't agree with her brother's explanation, she didn't mind. She picked up the 10 gold coins on the table and handed them to Song Wen, smiling, "Big brother, you can keep the gold coins."
Song Wen was very pleased with this sensible sister of his. He patted her head and said dotingly, "Since it's a gift from your friend, you should keep it for yourself. Even if the family has 10 gold coins, it won't affect the overall situation. Your equipment won't be cheap to repair, so how can you not have some money on you? Your friend is a meticulous person, and has considered everything. It's not unreasonable for him to send 10 gold coins. "
"Oh!" Song Jia didn't think too much about it. After hearing her brother's analysis, she felt that it made sense, so she didn't force him. Who would have thought that blockhead would be so meticulous?
"If it's convenient, you can ask your friend if he can get a Village Creation Order. We'll buy it for a high price," Song Wen joked. These past few days, he had been worrying so much about the Village Creation Order. Without a Village Creation Order, it was impossible to establish a territory. Without a territory, the Song Empire Financial Group wouldn't be able to establish a foothold in the game. This was undoubtedly a failure.
"Okay, I'll ask." Song Jia seemed to understand her brother's situation very well, so she readily agreed. After all, that blockhead had said that if she had any questions, she could call him at any time.
"But I can't guarantee that he'll be able to get it!" Song Jia said with uncertainty.
"It's fine, I'm just saying. It'd be great if he could get it, but it'd be normal if he couldn't." Evidently, Song Wen didn't have high expectations.
