Chapter 7 Dark Forest
Lu Yu jogged to the ck market andpleted today’s daily quest. He exchanged it for 1 free skill point.
Since he only had one skill, he could only use this skill for Armor Pration.
After some fiddling, Lu Yu heard a notification sound.
[ Congrattions onpleting the enhancement. Armor Pration skill is Lv2. ]
[ Armor Pration Lv2: This enhancement has increased the effect of prating the skin, causing internal damage to increase by 5% ]
As Lu Yu had not engaged in actualbat yet, he was not clear about the actual effect of this enhancement.
Nevertheless, in the path of cultivation, there would be nock of opportunities for actualbat.
Lu Yu looked at the Awakeners trading center in front of him. It’s arge location, but it’s only two stories high.
As soon as he reached the door, Lu Yu could hear the noise inside.
Because the Awakeners were aplicated group, a portion of thew didn’t apply to them.
It was due to these unique privileges that the Awakeners had that this uncontrolled ck market was formed!
Lu Yu walked through the ck market’s entrance. As soon as he entered, he saw a crowd of people before him.
......
Everyone was walking in a hurry, trying to find something to strengthen themselves.
The ce was surrounded by a circle of shops, with many notice boards ced in the middle of the area.
Some of them had trade offers written on them, while others had requests written on them.
In this ce, where there were no rules, anything could be traded.
As long as there was money, anything could be bought.
As for those without money, they could only sell theirbor to earn money.
The mostmon quest was to offer to fight for others.
Helping wealthy individuals hunt ferocious beasts, obtain materials, and sell them.
Needless to say, the use of these materials was for evolution!
Lu Yu looked around and found that almost half of the quests here were of this type.
Moreover, the quest reward was pretty bountiful!
He silently noted down a few suitable quest and then quietly walked to a corner where no one was around.
In the corner, Lu Yu took out a ck jacket and pants from his backpack.
After putting them on, Lu Yu took out a ck face cloth to cover his face before walking out again.
He was a newbie who had just awoken. Generally speaking, it was tough for newbies to receive quests.
If people saw that Lu Yu was still a student preparing for his college entrance examination, he would probably return empty-handed today.
It was easy for rookies to mess up, and no one was willing to waste time on rookies.
Although Lu Yu covered his face, it did not affect his ability to ept quests in the ck market.
There were many people dressed as Lu Yu here. Some did not want to attract attention, and others feared being caught for their crimes.
Therefore, even though Lu Yu walked around dressed entirely in ck, no one even noticed him.
He came to the quest area and stood at the side for a short observation.
He carefully observed how others epted quests. After memorizing it, he began to act.
It would be awkward if anything happened during the process of epting a quest and it was revealed that he was a newbie.
Lu Yu scrutinized the process for some time and came to a conclusion.
One type of quest was a quest that was written on the notice board. Under normal circumstances, the quest giver would be unwilling to show their faces.
Another type of quest was to receive them from a merchant.
To replenish their inventory, merchants would issue many quests and request the help of Awakeners to collect materials.
There were plenty of quests to go around, but knowing which region the quests could bepleted in was critical.
There were some regions that ordinary cultivators couldn’t handle.
Lu Yu opened the map on his phone and looked up the dungeon region.
Many areas were suitable for neers. But in the end, Lu Yu chose the Dark Forest.
This area was a newbie area. But at the same time, there was one of the materials needed for the evolution of the Dragon w, the Shadow Cat Demon Fingernails.
“This is it. I hope I can get the materials!”
After dimming the screen on his phone, Lu Yu walked toward the merchant’s location.
Lu Yu had his eyes on a shop and walked over.
At that moment, Lu Yu’s phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was a call from his homeroom teacher.
“Lu Yu, why aren’t you at school today? The school is giving a basic item to the students today, and it would be a pity if you weren’t here to collect it,” the homeroom teacher asked.
“I have something to do here. I’ll be there right away.”
“Alright, although you students have the first three weeks as free activities, it’s best to do them within the school. There are many training grounds avable in the school, and you have to work hard to have the chance to catch up.”
“I got it. I’ll be back in a while.”
“Alright, don’t run around blindly with your situation. Train obediently, and at least you won’t be left far behind by others.”
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Lu Yu smiled helplessly. If he were to train in school, he would definitely end up useless.
Only by evolving into the Dragon w would he have a future!
Lu Yu walked along the streets of the ck market. He looked at the shops beside him and found they all looked extravagant.
However, Lu Yu only wanted to take on a beginner-level quest.
Soon, he saw a shop with simple decorations.
He quickly walked in and saw the quest information posted on the door.
“Quest Target: collect 100 [ Eye of the Cat Demon ].”
“This quest is good. It’s just right for me.”
Lu Yu’s first target was to head to the Dark Forest to collect the Shadow Cat Demon Fingernails.
It would be much more convenient if he took on collecting the Eye of the Cat Demon as his secondary goal.
Hence, Lu Yu walked in. The owner of the shop was a fat man wearing overalls. When he saw Lu Yu walking in, he walked over with a smile.
“Hello, are you here to buy something or ept a quest?” He asked with a big smile.
Lu Yu pointed at the door and said, “I just saw a quest to collect 100 Eyes of the Cat Demon. I want to ept that quest.”
“No problem, this is the quest’s information.”
The owner gave him a piece of paper, and Lu Yu took it.
“The quest area is in the Dark Forest, but it’s Challenger level.”
The boss nodded, “That’s right, only Challenger level will drop this material.”
Lu Yu thought for a moment and decided to ept the quest.
“Okay, I’ll ept this quest. What about the reward?”
“Regarding the reward, I’ll settle it afterpleting the quest. The way we do so will be up to you.”
Lu Yu nodded slightly. Generally speaking, the quest’s reward would be linked to the difficulty, and there was a set of rules in the market regarding it, so Lu Yu did not need to worry about this.
Afterpleting the quest, he could either settle for money or convert his reward into other materials or equipment.
Lu Yu roughly estimated that this quest’s money reward would be at least tens of thousands of dors.
“Take this. This specific teleportation scroll can teleport you to the quest location at any time.”
A sheepskin scroll appeared in the boss’s hand, and it was filled with an ancient yet in aura.
Lu Yu reached out and took it. “Alright, I’ll take my leave then.”
“No problem. I’ll be waiting for your good news.”
Lu Yu turned around and left the shop.
He was not in a hurry toplete the quest. Therefore, he returned to school first.
Although earning money was very important, he should not fall behind in his homework. He needed to return to ss and learn the knowledge of this world.
Previously, Lu Yu had been running back and forth between the school, his work, and the hospital. But even so, he did not fall behind in any of them.
Although it was tough and tiring, he had to do it for his aunt.
