Chapter 60: Changes in Riverwood Town

Unbeknownst to the fiasco that occurred between Erica and her father, James, Xu Feng had arrived at the Town Hall once again.

The moment he entered the Town Hall lobby, the area was still crowded like previously, albeit much more manageable now.

'It seems like most players are now interested in the Silver Wind Guild now.' Xu Feng deduced inwardly.

"Sigh, forget it, that mysterious person had not come down since forever."

"Yeah, why did my Guild Leader want me to even camp here when that person is probably hiding? The Game Forum literally announced him outright, so why would he reveal himself?"

"Agreed, I might as well use this time to see when Guild Leader Gentle Wind is recruiting. At the very least, Silver Wind Guild is better than my current one."

As Xu Feng walked around, he heard numerous players discussing Gentle Wind's recruitment.

Their attention and focus are shifting at a rapid pace, with many even complaining about being forced to wait for some "mysterious" player.

It didn't take long for these players to feel a puff of rage as they decided to drop their assignment and follow the masses to test their luck in joining the Silver Wind Guild.

"Hey, brother, are you going to apply to the Silver Wind Guild as well?"

As Xu Feng was minding his own business, he was suddenly called out by a random player.

Smiling softly, he shook his head in response. "I'm too low-level, so I definitely won't be accepted."

"Ahh? Is that so? Good luck to you, brother!" With Xu Feng's clever response, the player no longer bothered him as he followed ahead of the masses.

Meanwhile, Xu Feng's smile turned bitter as he recalled his level.

As Xu Feng glanced at the silver shield-shaped badge, he received a system notification prompt.

System: Due to your meritorious and amazing achievement, you have been granted a Noble Status, Baron!

'A noble status just like that?' Xu Feng was astonished at the reward. The noble status was something every player vied for because it allowed them to gain many accesses and privileges that would benefit them thoroughly.

Benefits such as being granted the authority to construct any buildings, hiring NPC guards, and even owning a piece of land within the game world, were among the many privileges of a Noble Status.

Additionally, players with Noble Status often received special quests and invitations to exclusive events, providing unique opportunities for advancement and prestige.

It was a remarkable reward that could significantly enhance Xu Feng's influence and capabilities within the game.

'Let me check the noble status first.' Xu Feng quickly investigated the noble status he received.

After all, some noble status was limited to certain regions and areas only.

They are not universal and only the places that recognized or acknowledged the noble status could be utilized.

A few minutes later, Xu Feng's expression remained stoic on the surface, but inwardly, he was dancing in joy.

The noble status was not limited to the Riverwood Town, but the Aetheria Empire. The difference between having a noble status limited to the town and the empire was massive.

If the status was limited to the town, then once he left the town, he would become an ordinary adventurer again.

However, with his noble status limitation on the Aetheria Empire itself, any town he would visit in the future that was under the jurisdiction of the empire would have to treat him with a certain respect.

'Forget about the 1 percent experience points gained! I'll take that kind of punishment anytime in exchange for a greater reward!' He exclaimed inwardly.
