Chapter 40

“What happened?”

Young Master Li was confused, and his underlings quickly went up to ask.

“What’s going on? Why are there so many players gathered at the entrance of the village?”

“Huh? You don’t know?”

“Know about what?”

“Just now, Maise the God threw a level 20 platinum grade boss at the entrance of the novice village. It’s very dangerous outside now! This platinum grade boss will attack immediately if anyone dares to go out! She killed dozens of players instantly.”

“Darn it! A level 20 platinum grade boss? Where did Maise the God get it from? Speaking of which, our novice village actually spawned a level 20 boss? This is too ridiculous!”

“Sigh! Who else could it be? It’s Young Master Li and the others.”

“Ah? Why does it have anything to do with them?”

“Sigh… Last time he summoned us to kill Maise the God, wasn’t he wiped out by the other party?”

“This time, it was unknown how they found out about Maise the God’s quest of leaving the village, so they directly went to the wild boss in the quest to sacrifice their lives. They directly sent this wild boss into berserk mode. I’m afraid their plan has failed this time. Otherwise, this platinum grade boss wouldn’t have been sent to the entrance of the novice village!”

“What the hell! Maise the God is incredible! Look at our levels. He can actually pull a level 20 platinum grade boss, a wild boss at that!”

“That’s right. Otherwise, how could he have wiped us out all by himself?”

“Sigh, now that I think about it, I’m starting to regret participating in the encirclement.”

“Now that the gate is blocked by such a high-level boss, and Maise the God is constantly harvesting other players outside, by the time all the players have entered, our novice village will be finished.”

“Isn’t that obvious? Shoot! It’s all Young Master Li’s fault. Why did he go and provoke Maise the God?”

“Exactly! One should ride on such an awesome big shot’s coattail! Instead, he wanted to surround and kill the other party, and even claims that he wants to kill the other party back to level 0? What a joke! This is the world of Sword and Magic. Did he really think that he can do whatever he wanted with just a little money like the other trash games?”

“That’s right… Sigh…”

At this point, everyone suddenly let out a long sigh.

Especially when it came to Young Master Li, they all gritted their teeth.

They all said that it was Young Master Li’s fault.

At this point, the entire situation had reached an extremely desperate state.

The players of the novice village were all throwing their lives away, blaming Young Master Li and the others for their mistakes.

When Young Master Li heard the people outside talking about him, his expression turned dark.

Usually, he was the one who had always led them to attack others? Who would have thought that he would be blocked by a wild boss in the game today?

It could be said that he was shooting himself in the foot!

If not for the lackeys and underlings holding him back, he would have rushed out to fight those people with his life.

It was also because of this that his feelings towards Jiang Bai became even more intense. If he could, he would have rushed out to kill Jiang Bai a thousand times over!

But now, all of this was impossible.

Facing a level 20 existence, or even a platinum-grade template existence, not to mention competing with Jiang Bai, even leaving the novice village was an extravagant hope for Young Master Li.

After Young Master Li and the others were trapped in the novice village.

Jiang Bai and the others had already walked out of the novice village.

Now, they could be considered to have officially graduated from the novice village.

When they crossed the boundary stream outside the novice’s village, they would continue to move forward along the path behind Vivienne’s previous location. They believed that they would arrive at the town area soon.

By then, Jiang Bai could directly build his own guild!

And this was the first guild to be built. When the time came, he could definitely receive the first prize in the world!

When he thought about how he would be able to search for all the treasure chests hidden in the wild map, Jiang Bai’s heart was filled with excitement!

As he passed through the area that was surrounded by the tall tree walls, Jiang Bai did not pass through it directly. Instead, he stopped on the spot.

Not only that, but he also took out a blood-red gemstone with a gold chain from his backpack.

Looking at the blood-red gemstone in front of him, the sound of a system notification rang in Jiang Bai’s ears.

Ding! Congratulations on triggering the long-term quest “Find the Family”!

Quest Name: Find the Family

Difficulty: None

Description: The dragon-descent witch Vivienne had a tragic life. Her father mysteriously disappeared, and she was raised by her mother, who was a mixed-blood vampire. Because her bloodline was not pure, she wasn’t welcomed by dragons, vampires, humans, or even other single mixed-blood races. She was even regarded as a disgrace. Her mother died to protect her. Now, Vivienne only wants to have a place to live, but deep in her heart, she still hopes to find her father…

Quest Condition: Find the father that the dragon-descent witch has never met.

Quest Reward: Unknown

Looking at the quest that had been triggered before his eyes, Jiang Bai was not too surprised.

In fact, the dragon-descent witch Vivienne had given it to Jiang Bai when they had just set off. She said that she wanted to get over the past.

He did not ask her too much. Instead, he took the blood-red gem and went to the place where Vivienne had planned to live peacefully.

Vivienne and Jiang Bai had never met before, and there was no chain of other quests. But now, a blood-red gemstone was suddenly given out for no reason. Any player would realize that this item must be the item that triggered the quest!

But how to trigger the quest?

He did not trigger the quest when he was beside Vivienne.

Jiang Bai immediately thought of the place that was covered by the tree wall.

That place was the beginning of the whole incident, and it was also the place where the other party hoped to settle down.

Maybe he could trigger it when he got there?

In fact, it was just as Jiang Bai thought.

As soon as Jiang Bai arrived here, the quest had already been triggered.

However, he never expected that this quest was actually a long-term quest, and the most important thing was that it was a platinum-grade quest!

Jiang Bai had a love-hate relationship with long-term quests. His expression kept changing.

It wasn’t that long-term quests were bad. Rather, they were extremely valuable. In terms of the value of the rewards, long-term quests had the most valuable rewards.

However, long-term quests were also the most tedious. Just the opening first quest was enough to drive players crazy.

According to Jiang Bai’s information, long-term quests had always been extremely complicated. Behind the scenes, they would trigger a series of chain quests. According to the difficulty level of the quest, the corresponding rewards were also extremely shocking.

Compared to ordinary quests, long-term quests were at least three levels more difficult than the former.

Especially long-term quests above gold grade. In the later stages of the game, long-term quests could involve at least epic grade NPCs and above!

The higher the difficulty level, the more shocking the characters involved. The rewards were the same.

In his previous life, there was a player who unintentionally started a gold-grade long-term quest. In the end, the player spent more than two years completing the quest. It was only when the later stages of the game were about to arrive in the real world that the quest was finally completed!

Although the player spent a lot of time in the end, the rewards were also extremely shocking!

Not only did he obtain a piece of epic-grade rare equipment, but he also gained the favor of an epic-grade boss that had superpowers in the game.

It was also because of this that after Sword and Magic turned into reality, he became one of the strongest players in the world with the help of this superpower!

What was the level of an epic grade?

One must know that the foundation of a world-grade boss was legendary grade!

An epic-grade boss was only one level weaker than a world-grade boss!

From this, one could see how precious a long-term quest was!

Not to mention that Jiang Bai was currently setting off on a platinum-grade quest!

As long as he completed it, the final reward would be obvious!

However, Jiang Bai himself was a little indifferent to this.

It was not that he did not want to do this long-term quest. Compared to the scattered and high-difficulty quests, this kind of long-term quest was very suitable for a beginner like him.

However, Jiang Bai really could not do it!

There was another huge difference between long-term quests and normal quests. Which was the scope of the mission was quite wide!

This long-term quest had already exceeded the gold grade! Then, the scope of his quest would be ridiculously wide!

If the gold-grade quest corresponded to the distance between the country and the entire region, then the platinum-grade quest corresponded to the entire continent.

However, Jiang Bai was very clear about it.

The world of Sword and Magic was endless!

The continent he was on alone was comparable to the total area of the planet inhabited by humans in reality!

To put it bluntly, if Jiang Bai wanted to find Vivienne’s father in the entire continent, it would not be easy to find a needle in a haystack!

Not to mention, in the world of Sword and Magic, there was more than one continent…

It was precisely because he understood how difficult it was to complete Vivienne’s quest.

Jiang Bai was a little conflicted.

In the end, he gave up.

He decided to put the quest aside for the time being and wait until he met Vivienne’s father.

So, Jiang Bai continued his journey outside the village.

A new journey was about to begin!
