"I see…"
Thousand-Faced Gentleman muttered, "No wonder Zhao Mingyuan and the others level up so fast!"
But immediately, he asked, "How do you raise favorability with NPCs? And so far, we've only met the Village Chief. The other NPCs seem to be inside the village, and we can't even get in yet, so we can't contact other NPCs."
Ye Qiu smiled, "Those are separate costs."
Thousand-Faced Gentleman was stunned.
He just remembered he had said, he only needed the method.
He could handle the rest himself.
Now it seemed he had overestimated himself.
Sometimes, money is not all-powerful!
"Then…"
Thousand-Faced Gentleman was about to speak, but at that moment, Lovely Qingyue returned from recruiting players to exchange Gold Coins.
"Brother, the exchange is done."
Lovely Qingyue said as she walked over.
They were siblings, no wonder they looked alike.
Ye Qiu glanced at them.
Everything in the game was like reality, including appearances.
Of course, purely natural looks.
No matter if you had injections or plastic surgery, in the game, you would automatically revert to your original appearance.
When the game came, this rule applied to everyone.
Those who were disfigured, became restored.
The disabled, became whole.
The seriously ill, recovered.
This game was far more complex than it seemed now!
At the moment the game arrived, everyone would fully awaken!
Fully understand!
But, by then it would already be too late…
Thousand-Faced Gentleman made a trade with Lovely Qingyue, then sent a trade request to Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu received it.
[Ding! Player "Thousand-Faced Gentleman" initiated a trade with you, accept?]
Ye Qiu: "Anonymous trade."
The trade interface opened immediately.
With a "Ding", Ye Qiu's money column increased by 5000 Gold Coins.
"Thanks."
Ye Qiu waved to the two, ready to leave.
But Thousand-Faced Gentleman sent a "friend request."
Ye Qiu didn't refuse.
Still anonymous.
In this game, adding friends only added the nickname.
Other info had to be noted by oneself.
If the other party was anonymous, Then the nickname also had to be self-noted.
Thousand-Faced Gentleman labeled Ye Qiu as "Mysterious Collaborator."
When Ye Qiu closed the panel, he was gone.
"Brother, what did he say to you?"
Lovely Qingyue asked, noticing Thousand-Faced Gentleman's gloom.
Thousand-Faced Gentleman repeated what Ye Qiu said.
After listening, Lovely Qingyue nodded, "Right, I heard the method involves NPCs, but no one knows how exactly. Raising favorability with NPCs to team up is novel. Seems he's not a liar."
Thousand-Faced Gentleman smiled bitterly, "Not a liar, but how do you raise favorability? How to contact other NPCs? Those are the problems."
Lovely Qingyue was stunned.
Then remembered, the only NPC they could contact was Village Chief Uncle Xu.
Other NPCs were inside Novice Village.
And, even this only NPC required queuing!
Even if they had money and power, in the game, rules had to be followed!
Breaking rules, cutting in line, the outcome was the same as other players!
Real-life status, had no privileges under the game system!
"No wonder it costs 5000 Gold Coins! Such a rip-off!" Lovely Qingyue was annoyed, but helpless.
Thousand-Faced Gentleman said, "Let's try ourselves first, see if we can enter Novice Village or find NPCs wandering outside. If not, we'll contact that mysterious player. I've added him as a friend."
……
At this time, Ye Qiu headed straight inside Novice Village.
Though Village Chief Uncle Xu was no longer at the gate, a crowd of players still queued.
Most sat on the ground!
No choice, many had queued for hours.
Leaving now would be a wasted effort.
Coming back tomorrow would mean queuing again!
Luckily, the ratio of real to game time was 1:10.
Even queuing all day in the game, in real life, only two hours had passed.
It did not affect real life much.
When the cloaked Ye Qiu swaggered into Novice Village, immediately, "See! I said this cloaked guy is an NPC! He can cut in line and enter Novice Village freely! If not NPC, what else?"
"Only NPCs can avoid system punishment!"
"Damn! Didn't stop him. Maybe there's a hidden task!"
"Keep waiting, who knows when the damn village chief will come out again!"
Players eagerly waited, continued queuing.
Luckily, the game had forums, so they weren't bored, browsed the forums, checked out other players' latest moves.
Inside Novice Village, Ye Qiu found Village Chief Uncle Xu washing his feet.
He directly traded 5000 Gold Coins!
Then, five Advanced Appraisal Scrolls were in hand.
Before leaving, Village Chief Uncle Xu said, "This cloak is very special. I hope you use it well."
"Oh?"
Ye Qiu caught a hint of gossip.
Maybe there was a hidden task!
He was about to chit-chat with Uncle Xu, but the old man splashed his footbath water, immediately turned and went indoors, locked the door, as if afraid Ye Qiu would follow and barge in.
Ye Qiu rolled his eyes, then took off the cloak, unfolded an Advanced Appraisal Scroll, and merged the two.
Whoosh!
In a short moment, the scroll completely disappeared.
The cloak in Ye Qiu's hands, emitted a strong orange glow!
Checking it—
[Timid War Cloak (Orange Epic): No wearing requirements, Agility +100, with skill—Retreat in Battle: Upon use, immediately exit battle state and move away from the battlefield a distance.]
"Damn! Damn! Damn!"
After seeing the Epic equipment attributes, Ye Qiu's eyes widened, his breath seemed to stop suddenly.
This equipment—he remembered!
Once on the forum, there were rankings of some equipment, listing effects for each Tier.
Among them, dominating the "Orange Epic" rankings, far ahead of others, was this piece!
But, at that time this equipment had no name, only attributes.
It seemed the player holding it deliberately hid its name.
So much so, everyone suspected this equipment did not even exist, and its attributes and effects were completely fabricated!
Because it was just too godlike!
With this equipment, with its attributes and skills!
It could be said, unless facing someone several levels higher, one was almost invincible!
As long as not utterly suppressed, even in the most dangerous situations, One could use "Retreat in Battle" to escape immediately!
At this moment, truly holding this equipment, Ye Qiu felt unreal!
"Just +100 Agility alone is godlike. Plus this even more godlike skill, it's even more valuable than some Gold Legendary equipment!" Ye Qiu took a deep breath.
He put the cloak back on.
Very quickly, a light and nimble feeling swept through his whole body!
