After being teleported out of the quest, he returned to his original location.
Fortunately, the location he chose to enter the quest was rather remote, thus no one saw Lu Yuan coming out of the quest.
He wanted to quietly make a fortune, and not cause a scene.
After receiving the quest reward, he obtained a huge amount of EXP, causing Lu Yuan’s level to directly rush up to 4% of Level 7!
The EXP this quest gave him was more than enough for him to level up by one level.
This made Lu Yuan delighted.
Then, he remembered something and opened his backpack.
Sure enough, something was lying quietly in his backpack.
This was the additional reward for Lu Yuan’s perfect score.
[Klaus’ Blessing]
[Rarity] : Purple
[Equipment Level] : Level 7
[Description]: This is a ring forged from Klaus’ only tear in his life. It contains the emotions and thoughts of Klaus throughout his life. However, because a warrior has saved Anna, Klaus no longer has any regrets, and thus, he gives the warrior his most sincere blessing.
[Effect] : Intelligence +5, MP Recovery Speed +100% . Additional skills Meteor Hate, Blessing.
[Meteor Hate]
[Description]: The strong do not need tears, this is Klaus’ motto. However, in the end, he still went against his beliefs. This is a blow of Klaus’ regrets. Of course, it is also yours.
[Effect] : Causes 1,000 damage. Cooldown time: 6 hours.
[Blessing]
[Description]: Contains Klaus’ blessing for the warrior, and also carries Anna’s blessing. After experiencing a blizzard that lasted for ten hours, Anna will never forget that the warrior had saved her. This blessing will bring unexpected effects.
[Effect]: All effects of the first skill used next will be doubled. Cooldown time: 12 hours.
After seeing this equipment, Lu Yuan was so shocked he almost drooled!
Not only were the attributes strengthened, but the grade of the equipment was also upgraded from blue to purple.
There was also a new additional skill that could double the effects of the next skill he used!
This was not as simple as doubling the damage, it was doubling the effect! This meant that no matter what skill it was, it would have double the effect!
This was too strong!
Unfortunately, it had a 12-hour cooldown.
Otherwise, it would be invincible.
With haste, Lu Yuan put on this equipment.
At that moment, Lu Yuan seemed to have thought of something.
“If my memory serves me right, there was a hidden mission by the Village Chief that was super hard to clear. According to the normal process, it would’ve taken me a long time before I would be able to clear it, but with this equipment, maybe I can go challenge it now.”
Thus, Lu Yuan quickly rushed back to the novice village and headed straight to the Village Chief’s house.
At this time, there were not many people at the Village Chief’s house.
At first, it was still very popular, but the players gradually needed to leave to level up and complete missions, thus there were not many players around.
“Is the Village Chief home?”Lu Yuan called out softly in the central area of the novice village.
Not long after, an old man opened the door.
“You’re looking for me? All the missions in the village have been sent out. Please come back tomorrow.”
As soon as the Village Chief finished speaking, he prepared to close the door and send Lu Yuan away.
However, Lu Yuan only said two words calmly, “Noah’s gem.”
When the Village Chief heard it, he was obviously taken aback.
“What did you say? Why can’t I understand you?”
Lu Yuan continued, “The Noah’s Gem is the most precious treasure of the village, but it disappeared unexpectedly 30 years ago…”
“Enough, stop talking!” The Village Chief suddenly interrupted Lu Yuan’s words with a stern voice.
One could see that the Village Chief’s body was obviously trembling.
“Alright child, come in first then let’s talk.”
Lu Yuan did not stand on ceremony and entered the Village Chief’s house.
The Village Chief solemnly closed the door.
“Child, how did you know about Noah’s Gem? Who told you!”
Lu Yuan’s eyes darted around and he said, “It was my teacher who told me. My teacher is Sir Andre.”
The Village Chief could not help but nod. “So it was him… no wonder…”
Then the Village Chief abruptly looked at Lu Yuan. “Since you are his disciple, then how much of his abilities have you grasped?”
“I’m good at Stealth! I can help you retrieve Noah’s Gem!”
Lu Yuan’s determined gaze moved the Village Chief.
The Village Chief could not help but let out a long sigh:
“Since you’re his disciple, it should be fine…”
[The Village Chief has a mission for you: Retrieve Noah’s Gem!]
[Mission Level]: Extraordinary
[Mission Requirement]: Noah’s Gem, the most precious treasure in the village, disappeared 30 years ago, which has been the Village Chief’s sore spot. His wish in this life is to retrieve Noah’s Gem. Please explore by yourself, find Noah’s Gem, and hand it over to the Village Chief. The player will then receive a huge reward.
[Mission Reward]: 2,000 EXP, 200 gold coins, Noah’s Dagger
[Mission Failure]: Player will not be able to accept the Village Chief’s mission again, Village Chief’s favorability -10, gold coins-10.
As expected, the mission appeared! This was the extremely hard hidden mission!
Lu Yuan accepted the mission without hesitation.
He left the Village Chief’s house with haste.
This mission was etched in Lu Yuan’s memory!
In his previous life, this mission was only triggered later on in the game.
Furthermore, the location of Noah’s Gem was also extremely abnormal.
It was in a place where only players below level 10 could enter, but the monsters inside were all of level 20 to level 30!
As such, only players in the thief profession could complete it, and it required the thieves to have very strong Stealth abilities at that.
Therefore, at that time, it was once one of the most difficult hidden missions.
That being said, the rewards were also very generous.
The most valuable reward was the dagger! The dagger was very important to Lu Yuan!
If he got it, he would immediately be so happy he could fly!
Lu Yuan had just received Anna’s Blessing, which could double the effect of any of his skills.
As long as he used it on the Shadow Following, there would be no problem!
Lu Yuan had enough confidence.
Moreover, Lu Yuan clearly remembered the route of that location.
As long as he chose the right route, he would be able to obtain Noah’s Gem with lightning speed!
Lu Yuan opened the map and could remember clearly that Noah’s Gem was in a place that was north of the novice village.
He just needed to walk in this direction and turn a few corners, then he would enter a mountain range.
In one of the mountain ranges, there would be a cave. That was his destination!
