Su Jin also saw other players’ comments in the forum. The players’ IDs discussed were all high-level players from his last birth, and they had attracted a lot of attention in the early stages of the game.

They were all able to take on dozens of players alone, and ordinary players wouldn’t stand a chance in winning them.

Comments like “cheating” and “cheats” kept appearing. However, the players could only clamor at their hearts’ will. There were no game officials in New World taking care of such matters. It wouldn’t change anything, and the players would not stop playing the game either.

However, most of the high-level players who had appeared had joined the various forces to ensure their safety.

The players who didn’t join the various forces would be forced to cooperate in the later stages. The powerful forces would eliminate those who didn’t cooperate from the world.

The rules and restrictions became less and less important to the high-level forces when they had something to do with greater benefits.

If it wasn’t for the riot of the imprisoned players, the slave industry chain would have developed.

Of course, those were all Su Jin’s memories from his last birth.

It was hard to say whether he would change the course of the world when he returned this time. But there was still a possibility of him changing it.

Because now, the most dazzling player was only Su Jin. It was just that outsiders didn’t know his identity.

Sooner or later, someone would expose his identity. There would be no way for him to hide his identity.

“I can control my fate only by having powers,” Su Jin sighed and then scrolled through the various posts in the forum.

The most popular discussion was the only dungeon in the Novice Village, the intermediate challenge [ Devil Dragon’s Fury ].

In New World, dark and light confronted each other. The Devil Dragon race was the leading race of the dark forces, and the leader was the “Devil Dragon King, Scarlet Flame.” Any member of the Devil Dragon race could lead a dark army to the battlefield. They were all of the Boss levels.

Su Jin recalled that players had used ten days to pass the dungeon of “Devil Dragon’s Fury” in his last birth.

[ Devil Dragon’s Fury ]

Difficulty: Normal

Level: Level 10

Quest Requirements: Novice Village players only.

Rewards: Attribute points x 10, Prestige of the Kingdom x 400, Gold Coins x 50, Experience X 30000.

First Clear Reward: Server Announcement, Guild Reward Treasure Chest x 3, Attribute Points x 10, Unknown Reward.

Boss Drop: At least the Silver Equipment.

Although it was only a Level 10 dungeon of normal challenge in a Novice Village, the reward had already surpassed many dungeons of Level 20 difficult challenge. Especially the ten attribute points, it was a drastic increase for any player.

There was only one first clear reward, and the quest reward was also the best. If any guild completed it, the attribute points of all the members would increase by 10 points. It would make a huge difference.

Moreover, there was also a guild treasure chest and unknown reward. Whoever obtained it would be excited.

Whichever guild completed it would directly take the lead in the entire server!

At this moment, the authorities of those guilds were probably preparing to take action. They wanted to take the first clear and lead the entire server.

It was a great thought, and the goal was worth affirming. However, the reality was cruel.

Having the painful memories of being “tortured” by the NPC in his last birth, Su Jin knew that the “Devil Dragon’s Fury” was purely a big trap. The only reward in the game was not that easy to get.

After finishing his meal, Su Jin paid for his meal and left.

He slept for a while when he was back home. About midnight, Su Jin woke up and ordered a midnight snack. After that, he lay down in the game cabin and logged in to New World once again.

Although it was already midnight, there were still a lot of players in the Novice Village. Many of them were busy completing their quests. Su Jin’s appearance immediately caused a commotion in the Novice Village. The players were all excited.

“Look, it’s [ Heavenly Cloud ] .”

“He has the guts to appear in the Novice Village. Isn’t he afraid of being besieged by Tyrant Guild and Greed Wolf Guild?”

“Assassin Guild is one of their allies too. Only Rosette Guild didn’t participate. I heard that the three guilds have already joined forces and are preparing to teach [ Heavenly Cloud ] a lesson.”

“[ Cloudy Sky ] has snatched the Boss and killed so many people. The guilds are now enemies with him. The players were not paying attention when he slayed them the last time. I wonder if he can defeat them now.”

“D*mn! This is going to be interesting. I wonder which side is more skillful.”

“It’s a pity that this is a Novice Village. We can’t attack each other. [ Heavenly Cloud ] is still in the safe zone. Let’s see if he will get out of the jungle later.”

“If he can slay those guild players once, he can slay them again. I support him.”

The players discussed among themselves and followed from afar. Su Jin didn’t care about it. He followed the path and came to the village chief, choosing the conversation option.

“Brave adventurer, I can’t believe that you obtained so many spoils of war. I’m very touched by your actions. Please accept the small thanks gift from our village,” The village chief beamed in joy as she spoke. He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

“Ding!”

“Congratulations, you have completed the hidden quest [ Proving Ability ] in excess. You have received rewards: Village Chief’s Hidden Treasure Chest x 1, Gold Coins x 100, Prestige of the Kingdom x 100, Prestige of the Novice Village x 30000, Experience x 10000!”

“Congratulations, you have received a special item: Inheritance Token!”

The reward was not bad. It was not a waste of time offending the three guilds.

Su Jin thought that the reward had ended. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, the system notification sounded again.

“Ding! Congratulations, your prestige in the Novice Village has reached 3,100 points. You have received the title of [ Novice Village Outstanding Villager ] !”

Another reward appeared. This time it was the title reward.

[ Novice Village Outstanding Villager ]

Description: The kind villagers have already regarded you as one of their own because you tried hard to help the village, and they have offered you their sincere blessings. When you wear this title, your experience in the Novice Village will increase by 25%, and your equipment drop rate will increase by 15%, the probability of buying a rare item will increase by 15%.

The title was useful. Su Jin happily accepted it and used it.

“Brave adventurer, you have already proven your bravery. You have also obtained the lord’s inheritance token. However, it is too difficult for you to complete the inheritance quest now. Are you willing to accept the branch quest?”

Suddenly, the village chief pulled Su Jin and asked a question.

Hearing that, Su Jin was a little taken aback. He pondered what the chief meant. From the looks of it, the prestige of the Novice Village might have played its role. He thought the village chief might be helping him to reduce the difficulty of the quest.

With that in mind, Su Jin nodded, “Yes.”

“Very well, adventurer. There is a group of Dark Demonic Wolves hiding in the valley to the north of the village. They spread darkness and intend to pollute the empire. Are you willing to eliminate them?”

“The Dark Demonic Wolves are very cunning. You only have one chance,” The village chief patted Su Jin’s shoulder.

“Ding! You have triggered the inheritance quest, [ Eliminate the Demonic Wolves ]. Will you accept it?” The system notification sounded.

“Yes, I’ll accept it!”

Su Jin nodded excitedly. That was the only sub-quest derived from a hidden quest in the New World. The reward would be generous, and it would also reduce the difficulty of the inheritance quest.

It would be foolish not to agree.

[ Eliminate the Demonic Wolves ]

Description: The Demonic Wolves of the dark faction are polluting the empire. Go and stop them. You might be able to obtain some additional rewards.

Requirement: Clear the dungeon [ Demonic Dragon’s Fury ], and succeed in one go.

Reward: Unknown.

The quest was related to the previous dungeon they had seen, but this required Su Jin to succeed in one go. He felt he had to make more preparations before going. It would be a pity if he were to fail..
