Chapter 35 This NPC can actually give out quests!
After searching all three carriages, the players finally had a place to log off.
Qianlong and the others walked to the first carriage and exited the game inside.
Zhou Yi briefly introduced the sect's situation to Bai Ling, and then activated his spiritual power to drive the carriage towards the Qingxuan Sect.
The journey was long and Zhou Yi was quite bored, so he opened the forum to see what the players were talking about.
Instantly activating Sage Mode: "Holy crap! Brothers, something terrible has happened!"
Run-on-the-knife-wielding mouse: "Hey bro, what's going on on the new map?"
When the stars of humanity shine: "Today we intervened to help someone in need and saved a life. It feels like we're about to become permanent NPCs."
Upon hearing that a new NPC had been added, players on the forum started chattering away.
Foggy Sea View of Flowers: "A new NPC has arrived! The development team is truly amazing!"
One Slash 999: "Give the planning team a big bonus! They absolutely have to give them a huge bonus!!"
A few casual remarks: "Non-stop perks and gameplay updates—this move is absolutely amazing!!!"
When the stars of humanity shine brightly: "I wonder if this new NPC can give out quests?"
……
Inside the cramped rented room.
Li Fan, who had been lurking online, saw this and silently closed the forum.
He took out his phone; the old screen already had some cracks.
Li Fan casually opened his account balance, sighed when he saw that he had only two thousand yuan in savings, and went out to buy a pack of noodles.
"Sigh... I'll hold on for another month. Once the game reaches a hundred players, it should be able to monetize." Li Fan thought to himself, his hopes for the future rekindling.
The emperor's throne rotates, and this year it's my turn.
Li Fan believed that his life would one day turn around.
"I'm in a good mood today, how about an egg?"
Half a day later.
Zhou Yi returned to Qingxuan Sect and went to the vicinity of the spirit field, where he found an abandoned empty house.
"This place is nice, let's use it as a warehouse for now."
Zhou Yi muttered to himself, then unloaded the wood and spirit rice he had obtained from the carriage and carried them into the empty room.
Bai Ling, the talisman master, followed behind him and asked curiously:
"Sect Master, your disciples have been sleeping for almost a day. Are you sure there won't be any problems?"
Zhou Yi smiled and waved his sleeves.
Spiritual energy surged from his body, transforming into an invisible white thread that carried the last five bags of spiritual rice into the warehouse.
Seeing that things were almost done, Zhou Yi turned to look at Bai Ling:
"Don't worry, our sect's disciples have extraordinary physiques and will be fine. It's just that their behavior and speech in the sect may seem a bit strange at times, so please bear with them."
Bai Ling nodded slightly, her beautiful, glass-like eyes appearing clear and captivating.
Zhou Yi smiled slightly and then asked:
"By the way, Miss Bai, what kinds of talismans do you usually practice?"
Bai Ling smiled sweetly when she saw that Zhou Yi had finally mentioned his talismanic arts.
People are often proud of their most confident expertise, and Bai Ling is no exception.
She subconsciously raised her head and straightened her chest.
Zhou Yi glanced at it casually and couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.
Goodness, Bai Ling is too flat-chested. Her development seems to be even worse than that of the half-grown Su Qianyue.
Seeing Zhou Yi staring at her, Bai Ling blushed and quickly said:
"Sect Master, Bai Ling is very familiar with the production of first-grade low-level talismans on the market. Among them, the Vajra Talisman, the Swiftness Talisman, and the Fireball Talisman are the most skilled. The success rate of refining them can reach 70%."
She paused, then added somewhat sheepishly, "After all, these are the most popular talismans on the market, and I usually make a bit more of them."
As Bai Ling finished speaking, she comforted herself.
It's not shameful to practice talismans to make a living.
After hearing Bai Ling's words, Zhou Yi's eyes lit up. These three types of talismans were exactly what he needed right now.
The Vajra Talisman increases defense, the Swiftness Talisman increases speed, and the Fireball Talisman provides additional damage.
The importance of these three types of talismans to players exploring new areas and fighting monsters is self-evident.
Zhou Yi nodded, then asked, "Miss Bai, these three types of talismans are enough. I just wonder what materials are needed to refine them?"
"The materials needed to refine a first-grade low-level talisman are very simple; usually, only yellow paper, cinnabar, and beast blood are required."
Yellow paper and cinnabar?
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi's heart stirred.
These two items are quite common in the market.
If they can obtain them reliably in the future, most of the talisman problem for players will be solved.
As for beast blood?
He has plenty of that kind of thing.
Zhou Yi nodded and led Bai Ling toward the contribution shop.
After briefly explaining the situation to Su Qianyue, he found a relatively intact house for Bai Ling nearby.
The area near the spirit field is one of the few safe zones in the entire sect ruins, so it's natural that they should stay here temporarily.
Zhou Yi looked at Bai Ling, then smiled and said:
"Bai Ling, you should rest first. By the way, our sect disciples are quite helpful, and they are generally very enthusiastic towards new members of the sect. You can arrange for them to do anything you need."
After saying this, Zhou Yi handed over 20 sect contribution points.
"You only need to pay them this much; the exact amount depends on the difficulty of the task."
"For something simple, around 5 points is enough; for something more difficult, you can give 10 to 20 points."
"After that, you will help the sect refine talismans and receive 30 sect contribution points as an offering each month."
There are offerings?
Bai Lin was a little stunned, her beautiful eyes widened slightly, making her look quite adorable.
She had previously thought that even if she joined this sect, she would only be a free laborer.
I never imagined that I would receive offerings of my own.
After finishing his explanation, Zhou Yi returned to his small house.
He opened the system, recalling the last words left by the stars on the forum.
"That's true. It's a bit unreasonable if I'm the only NPC issuing quests," Zhou Yi muttered to himself.
He clicked into the system and opened the "Accept Quests" section in the player panel.
The system had a voice recognition function when it first generated the player panel. It could generate and issue tasks to players directly through human-to-human dialogue.
Now, all he needs to do is add Bai Ling to the list of NPCs who issue quests.
Zhou Yi swiped his finger across the screen a few times, and a line of subtitles popped up.
[New NPC, Sect Steward Bai Ling, successfully added]
After completing the operation, Zhou Yi opened the forum and posted a message.
Yi Tian: "Hello everyone, the new NPC, Bai Ling, the Talisman Master, has been added to the game. Her role is a sect steward."
"In addition, this NPC has been added to the quest-giving system, so everyone can try their luck."
A stone stirred up a thousand waves.
Yi Tian's brief two-sentence statement completely ignited the entire forum.
Dozens of young players were discussing it.
Instantly switching to newbie mode: "Hey guys, do you think this Rune Master might unlock a hidden class?"
I'm a newbie: "I don't know... but that's usually how it is in games, right?"
Big Sword: "Yes, yes, Deacon Bai Ling, I'm here."
I'm Not a Sword Immortal: "You big idiot, do you want to get banned by the sect leader again?"
When the stars of humanity shone brightly: "Sword Immortal, what do you know? A calm ocean cannot produce excellent sailors."
Instantly activating Sage Mode: "The stars are right, Greatsword, I support you!"
