Unchung Mutsu's footsteps were steady, but he had a wild thought in his mind.
Not to the lady in front of him, but to the quest that the lady was carrying out. There was a quest here too? This was something that Unchung Mutsu had never heard of before. They were both warriors. Perhaps this was a quest that would be very helpful to him? Unchung Mutsu thought that he should get this quest out of her first. After all, getting information about Gu Fei was to strengthen the guild, but getting a quest would strengthen him.
Given the choice of letting the guild be in the limelight or letting himself be in the limelight, Unchung Mutsu chose the latter without hesitation.
"Ahem!" Unchung Mutsu coughed to attract the lady's attention.
"What are you doing here, beautiful?" Unchung Mutsu asked casually.
"A quest," the lady answered. It was very common for a lady to be hit on, especially in the game where everyone was thick-skinned. The ladies were used to this kind of thing.
"Oh, what kind of quest is it?" Unchung Mutsu continued to ask casually.
"Wheat in the Soil," the lady answered.
Every quest had a name. The quest that the lady mentioned was something that Unchung Mutsu had never heard of before. Although the name of the quest sounded very simple, it was obviously very stupid to judge the meaning of the quest based on the name of the quest. It was just like how a person's name didn't represent how knowledgeable he was.
Unchung Mutsu was excited, and he asked carefully, "How do I get it?"
"Talk to the people here," the lady said as she knocked on the door.
A hunchbacked old man opened the door. His eyes shone with the light of accumulated experience, and Unchung Mutsu was instantly overwhelmed with emotions. Old people who were 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 person in front of him, hiding in a secluded street, if someone didn't accidentally knock on this door, who would know that there was such a quest here?
"Young man, do me a favor. I have some wheat scattered in the market. Can you help me find them? Remember, you must find it within five minutes. Otherwise, the wheat might be picked up by someone else. "The old man issued the task to the young lady.
The girl quickly turned around and left. Unchung Mutsu also wanted to go forward, but the old man ignored him and closed the door.
Unchung Mutsu hurriedly went forward and knocked on the door. He was worried that the mission would not be given to him because the lady had accepted it.
The door opened and the old man appeared again. He looked at the Unchung Mutsu and repeated what he had said to the young lady. Unchung Mutsu agreed without hesitation. Immediately, the mission "Wheat in the Soil" appeared in the mission panel.
The mission description did not seem to be anything special. Unchung Mutsu was puzzled as he headed towards the market.
The market that the NPC mentioned was naturally not the trading street formed by the players. It was a place where some system merchants gathered to sell system goods. This place was not as lively as the trading street, but there were still many players coming and going. Unchung Mutsu looked around the market but could not find the wheat.
Could it be that the young lady had already picked up the wheat? Was that why he could not find it? When Unchung Mutsu arrived at the market, he saw the young lady leaving.
Unchung Mutsu quickly wandered around. After more than five minutes, he heard a system prompt. The quest was labeled as "failed".
"This is difficult!" Unchung Mutsu was surprised. At that moment, he saw the young lady appear in the market again.
Seeing Unchung Mutsu, the young lady smiled. "You accepted the quest?"
Unchung Mutsu nodded.
"Did you find the wheat?"
Unchung Mutsu shook his head.
"Hehe!" A strange smile appeared on the young lady's face. She calmly said to Unchung Mutsu, "Use your brain!"
Unchung Mutsu carefully pondered the meaning of the young lady's words, but he still could not understand.
One minute later, the young lady asked him, "Did you think of it?"
Unchung Mutsu shook his head in confusion.
"Hehe, what is the name of this quest?" the young lady asked.
"Wheat in the Soil," Unchung Mutsu answered.
"Correct!" The young lady applauded him.
Unchung Mutsu continued to be confused.
"So, the wheat should be found in the soil!" the young lady said.
"Huh?" Unchung Mutsu was stunned.
"Look!" As the young lady spoke, she walked to a corner and grabbed a piece of rag that was exposed from the soil. She pulled it hard and a small cloth bag fell into her hands.
"This is the wheat in the soil!" the young lady said happily to Unchung Mutsu.
"Good luck!" The young lady turned around and left.
Unchung Mutsu was dumbfounded. He realized that he had complicated a simple problem from the very beginning. This quest seemed to be a beginner's quest to find something. This type of quest had always been criticized by the players because the system would hide the quest items in a mess. However, the young lady seemed to be repeatedly completing this quest. If it was such a simple quest, why would she do it?
Unchung Mutsu felt that there must be something mysterious about this. Hence, he gave up on this failed quest and returned to the old man to retrieve it again.
This time, he knew the target, but how could a small piece of rag hidden in the soil be found so easily? In the end, he failed again. This went on for the seventh time. Unchung Mutsu, who knew every inch of the market like the back of his hand, finally found the rag within five minutes.
Unchung Mutsu let out an excited roar and hurried back to the Quest Acceptance Office. He returned the half-filled bag of wheat to the old man with great excitement.
"Thank you, young man. You've helped me a lot!" the old man said as he handed over the reward. Unchung Mutsu took it and looked at it. It was ten silver coins.
"How could this be …" Unchung Mutsu mumbled to himself. Was this the only reward? Unchung Mutsu was not satisfied. If this was the only reward, why would the young lady repeatedly complete it? As he thought about this, Unchung Mutsu looked around and realized that the young lady had disappeared. He quickly sent a message to the guild member who was 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 …" Unchung Mutsu could not say it. He had temporarily abandoned his dream of strengthening the guild because of his selfish desire to strengthen himself.
The third mission ended with the disappearance of the target. At the same time, it left Unchung Mutsu with deep doubts.
"It's such a simple mission. Why did she repeatedly complete it?"
This question lingered in Unchung Mutsu's mind. Unfortunately, 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 …"
However, he still had to deal with the important matters at hand. Unchung Mutsu continued to receive reports from his subordinates. Someone said that they saw a reborn Amethyst girl strolling around the auction house. There was no one in the auction house at the moment. Unchung Mutsu rushed to the auction house when he heard the news. He rushed into the auction house and retreated after five seconds.
The two guild members who were guarding outside the door were puzzled.
Unchung Mutsu was not in a good mood. "Using money to bribe the Slim Waist Dancer? Do you two have any brains?! "
Failure … Unchung Mutsu's gold elemental attack ended in failure. It was a failure of going for wool and coming home shorn.
"Hmph, you just want to know her name. It's not a big deal. You actually want to buy her with money? Who do you think we are?!" One of the girls that Unchung Mutsu had approached threw out such words.
Unchung Mutsu was heartbroken! If he had approached this girl from the beginning, he would not have needed to spend money to find out her name. But now, due to the exposure of the second girl that he came into contact with, he had caused extreme dissatisfaction. She was completely unwilling to reveal Gu Fei's name. She also showed the deepest disdain towards Unchung Mutsu and his guild.
He did not 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 was not 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 have money?" These words came from the mouth of the number one money warrior in the game, Slim Waist Dancer. It sounded particularly powerful. Even Slim Waist Dancer had this kind of attitude. A mere Unchung Mutsu was really a wretched person.
"Money isn't everything." The girls shouted in unison. They used their usual deviant spirit to divert the topic further and further.
"What are you guys talking about?!" Gu Fei was pulled into the guild channel to participate in the discussion as soon as he came online. He was confused for a moment.
July spoke on behalf of the officials 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. As soon as she stood on the side of the guild, July always had this business-like expression. Even if she really approved of Gu Fei and didn't want him to leave, she still showed that she respected his decision.
Every member of the guild could be happy. This was July's biggest wish. If someone felt that there was a better choice, July wouldn't stop them. In the past, because the guild would disband once Gu Fei left, they had already forced Gu Fei to stay once. Along with the matter of Non-smiler, the guild had unknowingly received a lot of benefits from Gu Fei.
"I hope he won't leave …" This was what July thought.
