Online Game: The King of the New World - Chapter 5

Chapter 5 Green Weapon!
With excitement and anticipation, Xu You returned to Little Pool Village to hand over the task.

‘”Well done, Yue Wuyou! Those damned thieves deserve their retribution. Next up is your reward. Originally, this reward should have been given to you a long time ago, but your outstanding performance made me change my mind! Don’t misunderstand, I just made your reward more perfect!” Cass’s words made Xu You even more excited. It meant that this series of missions was about to be completed, and the reward would be better than not having done the follow-up mission “Kill the Thieves”.

“Give me the scrap copper mine you collected and wait here for a moment!”

Xu You immediately handed the prepared scrap copper mine to Cass. After Cass took the ore, he walked into the house behind him. Since there were no new missions issued after the “Kill the Bandit” mission was handed over, Xu You did not know what the reward was. This made Xu You feel as if countless ants were biting and itching in his heart.

“Wow! That NPC has moved! Could someone have triggered a special mission?” Although it was mentioned earlier that players outside the range were unable to see NPCs communicating with nearby players, the movement of NPCs was no longer within the range. When the surrounding players noticed this situation, they all shouted.

“F*ck, what the hell is this NPC doing? I haven’t even been given the reward for the mission yet. Why are you leaving?” These were some players who were communicating with Cass at the same time as Xu You. It seemed that Cass had only handed over half of the mission and left.

“Fortunately, there are so many people helping to conceal it, otherwise I will be surrounded.” Xu You had expected this situation long ago, but when he returned to the village, it happened that the second wave of players had come to Cass to do missions, which helped Xu You a lot.

“Hey hey! Which of you triggered the special mission? Tell us!” Someone in the crowd shouted.

“That’s right, that’s right. Let’s share it. Hello, everyone!”

“Humph! You guys are so stupid. Why would they say it when they triggered a hidden mission? I’m sure I’ll make a fortune in silence!” A Giant Witch Hunter said with contempt, but as soon as she finished speaking, she was surrounded by a group of players.

“Hey! What are you trying to do? Don’t get so close! You want to be hacked to death by the system!” The female hunter panicked after being surrounded, and then she remembered how stupid she had said just now.

“Come, come, come, sister, tell me, can we do the hidden mission together?” The players surrounding the female hunter said one after another, but they did not dare to make a move. Men who touched female players without permission would be directly killed by the system. Conversely, there were no restrictions or penalties for women touching men. This setting fully illustrated the inequality between men and women.

“Ignore him and tell me. I am a priest, so I can take care of you! As long as you are willing to tell me …”

“I, I don’t know!” The female hunter had a regretful expression on her face. Although no one dared to take advantage of her, being surrounded by a group of players like cattle was something that even an MM would panic about.

Xu You looked at what was happening around him and secretly laughed in his heart. Someone took the initiative to ridicule him as a tank, moreover, it was a group of ridicule. That was really great!

At this moment, Cass came out. This attracted everyone’s attention. Xu You stood in the middle of the crowd with a curious expression. Of course, the curiosity on the surface was used to disguise himself. His heart was filled with excitement. He had a premonition that it would be a piece of equipment, a piece of equipment with colors!

“Alright, Yue Wuyou, this is what you deserve!” Cass looked a little tired, as if he had used up a lot of energy.

However, Xu You didn’t care about that. All of his attention was attracted by the hammer in Cass’s hand that emitted a green glow. Xu You took the hammer from Cass with a trembling expression. His entire body trembled, but he quickly controlled his emotions, revealed a calm expression, and put the hammer into his bag.

The action of Xu You taking something from Cass could be seen by any player within Cass’ range of interaction. However, it was impossible to see what he had received. Furthermore, there were quite a few players who had obtained items from Cass. Therefore, Xu You wasn’t worried about being discovered. However, there was a time limit. Thus, he took a glance at the items and put them into his bag. That was, the items bar. After that, Xu You couldn’t leave because Cass still had something to say.

“Yue Wuyou! This is a weapon I specially forged for you. I hope you can continue to work hard and prove that you are worthy of this weapon with your performance! Next, I want you to hunt 15 wild wolves in the northwest of the village to ensure the safety of the villagers. Please bring back their wolf fangs as proof!”

“Ding, you accepted the mission to’clean up the wild wolves’ …”

Xu You knew that the mission was back on track. Now he could leave, pretending as if nothing had happened. He walked out of the village for the purpose of the Wild Wolf Mission. He walked for about five or six minutes until he stopped in the middle of a small forest, found an unremarkable tree to hide behind, opened the item bar, and carefully looked at the hammer that made him extremely excited.

Premium Wood Hammer (Excellent): Hand-held weapon, Attack 12-16, Attack interval 2.7 sec, Strength +2, Bound.

Xu You’s mission reward was actually a green-quality two-handed weapon. How could Xu You not be excited? As mentioned on the official website, Green-quality equipment can only be dropped by killing monsters above level 5, Normally, only those above level 5 would receive a reward, Moreover, the lowest level of green equipment could only be equipped at least Level 5. However, Xu You’s hammer did not have this restriction, and its attributes were clearly at the level of a Level 5 Excellent Quality Weapon. In other words, when Xu You was Level 2, he had obtained a Level 5 Green Weapon that could be equipped. This was the reason why Xu You was so excited.

Xu You looked at the wooden hammer for a while before equipping it. Looking at the weapon in his hand that emitted a faint green light, the satisfaction in his heart was truly indescribable!

After equipping the wooden hammer, Xu You’s strength increased to 11, and his attack strength reached 102. Adding on the attack power of the weapon, if he were to attack some monsters with lower armor, he would definitely be able to deal up to 100 damage.

“With this hammer, it’s equivalent to filling in the gap between my initial strength attributes. Looks like the gap between my attributes can only be filled by equipment!” Xu You thought to himself, The wooden hammer had two additional powers, Think about how many people at this stage will have green equipment with additional attributes, In the Novice Village of Little Pool Village, one hand was believed to be enough to count, So, before level 5, Xu You’s initial strength was equivalent to increasing from 7 to 9. This was a pretty good initial value. After reaching LV5, the difference between one or two attribute values became less obvious. However, even after LV5 or even LV10, green equipment was not so easy to obtain. At least, he had not seen anyone publicly display their green equipment in Little Pool Village.

At this moment, an uninvited guest broke the silence of the forest.

“Wow! It’s actually a green-quality weapon!” A crisp voice sounded.

“Who is it!?” Xu You was shocked. Turning around, he saw a beautiful girl wearing a lock armor standing three to four meters to his left. She looked at Xu You excitedly. No, she should be looking at the two-handed hammer in Xu You’s hand.

“Who are you?” Xu You asked in a deep voice.

“Didn’t you see my name? My name is Qingwu. You actually have a green weapon. Could it be that NPC is good for you?” The girl had a curious expression, but she didn’t know that her words were like a basin of cold water that drenched Xu You thoroughly.

“Why do you know this!” Xu You’s expression became cold and indifferent. He did not have a pleasant expression just because the other party was a beauty. Anyone who was found out about his secrets would be like this.

‘”You must be the one who triggered Cass’ NPC to enter the room just now. You actually rewarded a green weapon. How formidable! Why would you ask me? It’s very simple, because when you first came to Cass, I saw that Cass’s attitude towards you was obviously different! Can you tell me how to obtain a green weapon? I really want to have a green bow too!” Qingwu said excitedly as if he didn’t see Xu You’s indifference.

Hearing this, Xu You was puzzled. Could it be that no one handed over the task with him at that time? That’s right, he was already the last of the first batch of players to log in to deliver the message to Cass. Damn it, how could this woman be so bored and careful? She could actually discover that Cass had a different attitude towards him, and she was still paying attention to him, but she seemed …

“You’ve been following me? What do you want?” Xu You probed. What was the purpose of this young girl coming here now? Hearing her words, he didn’t want a green weapon, right? But why would he tell her that if it was spread out, wouldn’t he lose his advantage? After all, there were still many players who hadn’t started playing yet.

“I want you to tell me how to obtain a green weapon. I’ve already told you several times!” Qingwu pouted her red lips, seemingly dissatisfied that Xu You didn’t hear her clearly.

Xu You’s face was full of black lines. She didn’t know if this girl was thick-skinned or naive, but she was actually so direct. For a moment, Xu You didn’t know what to say. The forest suddenly quieted down, and the two of them stared at each other in “confrontation”.

“Hey, what are you looking at me for? Are you telling me? If you tell me, I can give you money!” The girl looked at the item bar and then said with a sad expression, “But I’ll have to wait until I earn some money in the future before I can give it to you!”

After hearing the girl’s words, Xu You couldn’t help but laugh in his heart. It seemed that this beautiful girl in front of him didn’t have any malicious intentions. This made him feel relieved. However, he still couldn’t say anything about weapons.

“What if I don’t tell you?” Xu You’s indifferent expression finally dissipated as he asked with a smile on his face.

“If you don’t tell me, I will, I will follow you! Until you tell me!” Hearing Xu You’s refusal, Qingwu immediately became anxious. “I only” for a long time before he said something that made Xu You spit out more food. However, Xu You did not want to tease this innocent girl anymore. It was better to hurry up and practice leveling.

“Then it’s up to you.” After saying that, Xu You continued to walk towards the gathering place of wild wolves.

“You! Why didn’t you tell me? I said I would give you money.” When the girl saw Xu You leave, she hurriedly followed him.

“It’s not about money. Besides, how much money do you have now?” Xu You said that although the “new world” could exchange currency with reality, it was impossible to open this function in the early stages of the game. Then, how much money could a player make at this stage?

“I do … I don’t have any money now, but I’ll give it to you in the future. Trust me!” The girl said anxiously.

…

-122!

A red damage number that was larger than usual popped out from the wolf’s body and struck! Afterwards, the wild wolf let out a wailing cry and fell to the ground.

“Ding! You killed the wild wolf and gained 3 experience points.”

Wild Wolf was also a Level 2 Inactive Monster, Although it was slightly taller than the little thief’s armor in the cave, However, his health was relatively low. He only had 110 HP. Xu You was able to handle it very easily. Especially with the green two-handed hammer, he could instantly kill monsters. This was also the first time Xu You had instantly killed monsters in this game. This refreshing feeling was truly unparalleled. Even if he didn’t inflict a critical strike, Xu You could already deal 80 damage.

-81,-82!

“Ding! You killed the wild wolf and gained 3 points of experience. You have completed the task of’clearing the wild wolf ‘!”

Or squatting at the refresh point to complete the quest, This time, it only took Xu You 20 minutes to complete the task. The main reason was that no one dared to snatch the refresh point from him. The weapon in Xu You’s hand that emitted green light, coupled with the huge damage from killing wild wolves instantly, made the surrounding players want to approach but not dare to. This was almost the same situation as the Thief named Killer God that Xu You saw in the cave. The strong were respected, regardless of which world it was in.

Xu You, who had completed the mission, was not happy because there was a beautiful girl with bright eyes and bright teeth standing beside him. This was the reason why the surrounding players wanted to get close. However, Xu You wished to throw this “trouble” far away because what this girl said attracted too much firepower.

“Just promise me, okay? I’ll give it to you, but not now!”
