"Congratulations, Quest Completed. Reward, 50 bronze coins, 30 XP." After finishing talking to another Npc, I finally finish the last visit quest in the village, along with that I also finished Lynch's Quest, just missing talking to him.
At that point there was only 50 XP left to go to Lv 2, so completing Lynch's Quest will be enough for that.
The initial village at this point is much more empty than before, I quickly understood why, the missions are less productive than hunting, as well as consuming a lot of time you also need to think before talking to the Npc. The Npc's intelligence in LLILI Online is extremely superior to that of other games, anything that can cause a misunderstanding will make the Npc angry with you and perhaps your mission will fail or not receive a mission from the respective Npc.
In addition to being walking is very tedious, different from facing monsters that gives bronze coins and a nice XP.
So why am I walking around instead of facing mobs ?. Well, people didn't take into account the number of players to hunt for a single mob, so even though it is better than just doing missions in the city, it just isn't worth it now.
Besides, I'm doing this to see the reactions of the Npcs and understand more of this mechanics. And mainly because Lynch interested me, I feel that there is something behind it that will lead to something very interesting.
So in addition to walking around town completing missions, I spent a lot of time asking about Lynch, so I received a lot of interesting information.
Most people in the village have good impressions of him, but some are suspicious of his actions, especially the village chief. It seems that Lynch has been talking a lot with the chief's daughter this made the chief be defensive and say a lot of things say bad about Lynch.
"Even though my daughter doesn't like him and refuses him all the time, this Lynch always comes with a different reason and with a lot of money I can't refuse him because of that. It's good that my daughter is even more defensive than I, in case otherwise I wouldn't know what to do." This is what the village chief told me. Maybe you think that this is just something normal, that Lynch just fell in love with her and that he is trying to woo her, but after asking information for several Npcs about Lynch, I learned that he has several women with him.
After I spoke to a specific Npc who had a bad impression of Lynch, he told me about one of his friends from another village. It seems that this friend's daughter was one of the women who went with Lynch, the father happily accepted since he had a good impression of Lynch and his daughter liked him.
He asked his daughter to always be coming back, but after she went with Lynch she never came back to the ville. The father was concerned and told everyone in the village that he was going to Lynch's house and then neither he nor his daughter were seen anymore.
Something could have happened to them, but this Npc became more suspicious of Lynch, he tried to talk to Lynch about what happened but Lynch simply ignored him saying that he had never met such a man and girl.
This further increased my curiosity about what may be going on and I felt strongly that something interesting may be going on.
I was heading towards Lynch to complete the mission and ask him a few questions, when I noticed a peculiar Npc. He was sitting drinking something I suppose was alcohol, he was the poor Npc type, but the curious thing about him is that he didn't take his eyes off the store where Lynch was.
As there were some players close by, I ended up asking them about that specific Npc and if they knew anything about it.
They knew a little about him, it seems that some people talked and tried to get some kind of mission with him, but all he said was "Get the hell out of here." and even threatened when the players asked him more than two questions.
I felt there was something behind, especially with him looking so intently at Lynch's store so, after the players I had talked to walked away I approached the Npc.
"Hello, do you need help with anything?." I asked Npc, this is the most common speech and with a chance of success to talk to Npcs or start some kind of conversation.
"Get out of here." The Npc put the bottle in his mouth after answering me. I didn't lose my temper, I already knew it wouldn't work.
"Sir, actually, I would like to ask you something." I tried again to get some reaction from him.
"I don't care, get out of here before I take my sword and cut off your head." Well.... He really is angry, I can't see the Lv of his, but I'm a little sure that he's stronger than me. Anyway, I still haven't given up.
"I saw that you're looking at Lynch's store, do you have anything against him?" I ask one more question, if it doesn't work he will start acting aggressively.
"It doesn't interest you, now get out, if you bother me again I'll really attack you." The Npc again without the reaction I wanted responded short and thick again.
The name of the Npc that was once white, has now turned yellow. This color system is something that LLILI Online has to measure the relationship you have with the Npcs, the more dark green the better your relationship with such Npc, White is a neutral relationship, yellow is already an alert, the Npc is not friends with you and it is almost on the verge of attacking you are on the verge of becoming enemies, while red is the entirely enemy.
The name that appeared on top of the Npc was John, the bright yellow was a warning that he was about to attack me.
I still didn't give up, I really feel like he has something to do with Lynch, so I decided to try it again.
"I don't know what you have against Lynch, but I personally feel something strange about him. I felt that way since the first time I met him and after asking around about him around the village, I feel something very wrong about him, you that you are looking at his store you must know something, right ?. I need to find out more about him and if he really is some evil being, he needs a punishment. So I ask you not to hide it." When I started to say John's name it got darker and darker it got to the point of starting to turn red, I was already sweating cold but I trusted my intuition and kept talking.
As soon as I finished saying what I wanted and I was already preparing to face John but that was not precious since his almost red name soon became white again.
"You bought yourself some time, tell what you heard about Lynch." I finally had a different reaction than John. I started to share some doubts I had about Lynch and the lighter things I heard about him. And then I started talking about the suspicions I had in Lynch, about how Lynch was keeping an eye on the village chief's daughter and finally I told him about how the father and daughter disappeared when they went to Lynch's house.
John's name, which was white, turned slightly green.
"I see... Follow me boy, I have something to talk to you about, but it can't be here." It seems that I managed to unleash something hidden. With a smile I followed John, he was taking me to one of the empty houses in the village. As soon as we entered, he asked me to sit down, as had no chair I sat on something that looked like a bench.
John then took another sip probably from another bottle that he removed from the inventory. We were silent for a few seconds until he started to speak.
"Lynch is exactly what you said, an evil being. What Lynch does is to seduce or even kidnap these girls and take him to his 'palace'. I didn't discover everything, but the little I know already made me disgust him and took me where I am today. The girls he kidnaps are used for some kind of ritual that I don't know what it is, the girls he took are probably all dead. " John stopped talking to drink his drink again.
I was silent for a few seconds ... I imagined that there was something sinister behind it but I didn't expect him to sacrifice the girls in a ritual, it made the game a little darker. That must be why no one under 16 is allowed in this game. Soon John started to speak again.
"That father you said went to Lynch's castle to save his daughter ... It was thanks to him that I manage to be here today, he was killed after giving me the opportunity to escape the castle ... Kill Lynch inside the castle is almost impossible, the only way is when he's out, like now ... But I can't attack him yet, so I'm waiting for an opportunity to kill him ... "John stopped talking again and drank his drink again.
"Foreigner, I ask for your help, I don't know if I will be able to kill Lynch alone and there may be adventurers who try to hinder us .... Will you help me?" John looked me straight in the eye and after I finished speaking an ad appeared in my vision.
"Mission!. John intends to face the evil Lynch, few know about the cruelties that Lynch commits, are you willing to help John face and maybe kill Lynch?. Reminder: Lynch is someone admirable in the city, killing him can lead to consequences. Refusing the mission will make John never trust you again, are you willing to face accepting this mission?. Reward, ???. "
Yes !!!. I knew there was something behind that damn Lynch, but I didn't think it would take me on a hidden mission ...
Despite the dangers of the mission and even the warning, I'm willing to try. This is probably a hidden mission so not only will the rewards be very good, but I will also be able to have a lot of fun with the events.
"I'm willing, John, we're not going to let this damn Lynch go free." I say while accepting the mission.
"System: Your friendship with John has increased."
"Thanks boy, I didn't think I would have a last-minute ally. Lynch won't be long before attacking the town chief's daughter, so let's face him right now. Lynch will probably do that tonight, he's been here for a long time. As soon as the night comes, come find me, let's kill damn Lynch." John said with conviction.
The only problem I have with this mission is Lynch's strength, I'm only in Lvl 1 and the biggest Lvl at the moment is 3, so I will probably have to trust John to face Lynch.
After receiving the mission, I leave John's house and head towards Lynch's store to finish the mission I received from him.
As soon as I receive it I will have Lv 2 and I will start preparing to face Lynch for that I have to get used to the combat system of that game. As I will not face Lynch head on, the best would be a class of medium or long range as a magician or archer. That said, until the night comes I will be testing three classes: warrior, wizard and archer.
As soon as I entered the store, went to talk to Lynch. I finished the mission quickly, I don't need him to notice anything about me or to be aware.
The system rang saying that Lynch now has a good impression of me, I received one silver coin and 100 xp, thus increasing my Lv to 2.
"Congratulations! You have just reached Lv2. 5 free attribute points assigned to the character."
I feel like I've gotten stronger. For each Lv in addition to the 5 free attributes, 5 points are allocated to your character's attributes depending on the class you are using, such as a Warrior who receives 3 strength and 2 resistance for each Lv.
As for now I am with the Warrior class, my strength and endurance have been increased and I received 5 points to be awarded freely.
After my Lv raise I said goodbye to Lynch and left his store, little does know Lynch that he just strengthened his enemy.
Now that I've finished all the missions that don't need combat, it's time to finally do the ones that do, in addition to improving myself to face Lynch at night.
So it's finally time to head towards the hunting ground.
