Ye Tian Xie put the necklace back into his inventory with some regret. He turned around and left the Wolf's Valley as he returned to the Beginner Village.
At this moment, it was already close to 8 PM. The Beginner Village was still bustling with noise and activity. Amidst the bustle, there were all sorts of hawking sounds. The surrounding villages were also filled with all sorts of stalls.
"A Level 3 Attack and 7 Axe, 1 point more than a normal White Grade Axe. It only costs 2 Silver Coins."
"Level 3 Apprentice Mage Robe with 2 Intelligence, 1 gold coin, or Level 3 Steel Warrior Equipment …"
"Top quality grass shoes with 3 movement speed, 8 silver coins, no haggling!"
With his 10 Luck, he definitely had more than 10 pieces of equipment in his bag. Four of them even had decent Steel grade equipment, and none of them were lower than Level 5. At this early stage of the game, a piece of Steel Equipment was enough to make players fight over it. If a player wore a full set of Steel Equipment and walked past, they would immediately become the focus of attention, receiving the envious and resentful stares of countless players.
Although Ye Tian Xie had a dozen or so pieces of equipment hidden in his inventory that made people jealous, he did not have any intentions of selling them. To him, who was holding onto a huge sum of over 100 gold coins, those were nothing more than small amounts of money.
He passed through the crowd and walked straight in front of the Beginner Village head. Before Ye Tian Xie could open his mouth, the village head who had recognized him had his eyes shining. He opened his mouth and said, "Heroic adventurer, we meet again. Your eyes tell me that you've definitely completed the mission."
"Yes, Village Chief, this is a Wolf Fang that can prove that I have completed my mission." Ye Tian Xie gave the 100 wolf teeth he needed to the village head. The village elder narrowed his eyes and nodded his head in approval. "Good, you are indeed an outstanding brave man. This is your reward."
"Ding!" "You have successfully completed the quest. Rewards: 1000 Experience Points, 5 Silver Coins, and 1 pair of Level 5 Steel Battle Boots."
"Thank you, Village Chief."
"There's no need to be polite. This is a heroic reward for you. Hehe, what a polite young man."
"Ding … …" "Beginner Village 60001's village head's favorability towards you has increased by 1."
Ye Tian Xie: "… …."
Sigh, this damnable charm. A charm that was twice as attractive as an average player's maximum value of 20 points was indeed a heaven-defying existence … Ye Tian Xie gave a proud sigh and then took out a purple string from his backpack which he placed in front of the village head, "Village head, I found this on a blood wolf, do you know where it came from?"
The village chief slightly lowered his head. His pair of half-opened old eyes immediately stared at him. His sluggish expression was fixed on his aged face, and he did not reply for a long time. Finally, he extended a withered hand and pressed onto the purple colored necklace. His entire body was trembling and his voice was so shaky that it was almost impossible to hear. This was … This is the necklace my son wore when he was alive! "
The village head's reaction let Ye Tian Xie see what was going on, but the "necklace my son wore" made him understand the origin of this necklace. The village chief's son had gone to the Wolf Canyon and died there. The necklace he wore had been left on the ground. It had been taken away by the mutated blood wolf, and it had ended up in his hands.
The village chief placed the purple gem necklace on his chest, his face already filled with tears. He closed his eyes. In the silence, he was deeply reminiscing about the distant past and his dead wife and children.
Ye Tian Xie did not say anything, he knew that this old man needed to be quiet, he also knew … … He would only be rewarded with a hidden quest like this after he had calmed down.
After a long time, the village head opened his eyes and wiped away the tears on his face. His expression returned to indifference as he patted Ye Tian Xie's shoulder and said, "You are not only an outstanding Braveheart, you are also an enthusiastic one. I will remember your kindness … …." I have nothing to repay you with. I will give you this ring that I was wearing back then. I hope that it will be of some help to you on your journey of adventure. I look forward to the day when you become a true hero and punish those demons who have wreaked havoc throughout the world. "
A plain ring appeared in the village head's hand and he placed it in Ye Tian Xie's hand. A faint blue light faintly appeared on the ring … The ring was an incomparably precious accessory type item. As for the blue light, it meant … This was actually a steel grade ring!
Ancient Ring of Life: Steel Requirement: None. The origin of the ring that the Beginner Village 60001 village head accidentally found in the wild was unknown. Attributes: HP + 100, automatically restores 2 HP per second.
The strong attribute that exceeded Ye Tian Xie's expectations made him feel shocked out of his mind. He put the Life Ring on right in front of the village head and sincerely said, "Thank you village head, this Life Ring will be a great help to me."
"Hur hur, I'm very pleased that you can say that." The village chief slowly nodded his head and said with a smile.
"Ding … …" "You have successfully completed the only Hidden Quest 'Lost Purple Jewel Necklace'. You have received 800 experience, and you also have a special ancient equipment, Life Ring. Number 60001 village head's affability level increased by 20."
"Ding … …" The Village Head's impression of you has been raised to the level of confiding in you. "
In the « Destiny » world, NPCs also have a certain level of favorability towards players, which can be summarized as follows: Irreconcilable (affability level below -100), gnashing of teeth (affability level below -60), dismissive (affability level below -30), unconcerned (affability level below -10), normal (affability level below -10), praiseworthy (affability level above 10), affable (affability level above 40), grateful (affability level above 100), obedient (affability level above 170), and above 250, and above (affability level above 500).
The higher the affability level, the more enthusiastic the NPC would be. The players would receive more help and guidance from the NPC. At the same time, they would receive more quests and the probability of triggering hidden quests would greatly increase. On the contrary, when the affability level fell to negative, the player would have to face the NPC's cold face and receive malicious guidance. It was even possible that the player wouldn't even be able to receive the most ordinary quests. When the affability level fell below -50 for any reason, there was a certain probability of being attacked by NPCs. The lower the affability level, the higher the probability of being attacked. When it fell below -100, the NPCs would fight every time.
