Reyker did not look at the remaining items. He waited for Tiffany and Kairi to hurry back from the resurrection point to share the items with them.
After a while, the two arrived. Looking at the equipment on the ground, they were filled with joy as they said, "Are you really giving these to us?"
"I couldn't have defeated this boss without you guys. You deserve it."
After exchanging contact information with them, Reyker quickly went offline.
The time he spent online this time was a bit too long. His sister might be worried.
When he arrived at his sister's ward, he saw that she was chatting with the little boy on the next bed.
Reyker found an opportunity to join in on the conversation. Soon, the three of them were chatting passionately.
"Brother, when it comes to the day I get to play "The One", you must help me."
"Don't worry, when the time comes, your brother will already have become invincible."
After chatting with his sister for a while, Reyker went home.
After getting up from bed the next day, Reyker went online and did things differently from yesterday. He took a long sword and rushed to the Twisted Forest.
After all, he hadn't completed the chain mission that required him to catch the mad rabbits yet.
With new equipment and greatly improved attributes, Reyker found it extremely easy to kill the rabbits.
Now that he was wearing the Mutated Werewolf's Skin Soft Armor, he was no longer afraid of the rabbits' attacks.
On top of that, because of his advancement in levels, when these low-level mad rabbits attacked him, he would enjoy a damage reduction instead.
It could be said that the mad rabbits no longer posed a threat to him at all.
He had added the attribute points he get from leveling up to his Agility, and thus his current speed was no slower than these little rabbits.
Holding the big wooden club, Reyker was like a child participating in the Whac-A-Mole game. He started to knock out all the rabbits that were running around with swings of his club.
After catching five rabbits, he returned to Harmon Village.
"Ah, young warrior, you're not bad. When I think of the delicious meat from these rabbits, I can't help but drool." Looking at the NPC wiping the drool from the corner of his mouth, Reyker could not help but ridicule in his heart, " "The One" is just too realistic".
"Young warrior, since you have helped me capture five mad rabbits, can you help me with one more thing?"
There was no mention of the quest reward at all, and Siouk was still greedily asking the players to fulfill his request.
"Aren't you going to give me the rabbit-hair brush?" Reyker asked.
"Rabbit-hair brush? What is that? If you're asking for a goose-hair brush, I do have those."
Hearing this, Reyker fell silent. It seemed that the information provided by A Psyduck was not that accurate, it deviated from reality.
"Fine. After all, it's my honor to be able to serve Sir Siouk," Reyker said. Even if he couldn't get the rabbit-hair brush, he decided to continue completing the quests Siouk gave him and see what he could get in the end.
"Oh my, it's really hard to find such a polite teenager like you these days. Recently, I kept feeling that an owl was hooting outside the window while I was asleep. Could you help me shoot them down?"
With this, a pop-up window appeared in front of Reyker.
[Siouk's Sleep Troubles]
[Recently, Siouk had not been sleeping well because every time he was sound asleep, the owl outside his window would make eerie hoots. Now, he has entrusted you the quest to chase away this annoying owl.]
[Accept/Reject]
After Reyker clicked 'Accept', Siouk walked to him and patted his shoulder.
"I hope I can sleep well tonight."
If it were any other person, they might have chosen to complete the quest the same day they got it. However, for Reyker, who knew the strategy of the whole quest, this quest had a point that could be used to gain something with no expenses.
This was because the quest was designed for players who had not reached level 10.
Players who had not reached level 10 in "The One" did not have a class, which meant that they could not use bows, arrows, or magic staffs.
Many yearned for the owls in the sky, but no one could get their hands on one.
Of course, if one were to set his mind to it, there were tons of ways to get rid of this owl. However, any of these methods would cost a fortune for the players in the early stages, as most of them did not have many gold coins, to begin with.
If one didn't choose to complete the quest on the first night, Siouk would come looking for the player again.
At this time, one just needed to state that they didn't have the appropriate tools, and one would be able to get a blow dart.
Although the time-flow in the game was set to be faster than the time-flow of reality, executing such a plan still needed some time.
Thus, now was a good time to go train and level up.
With this, Reyker returned to Wolf Valley. Facing the wild wolves in the valley, he chuckled, "It's different now."
Then, he took out the Secret Potion of the Mutated Werewolf from his backpack and chose to steal the talent it brought.
He checked his attributes column again and saw that he had the permanent buff of transforming into a werewolf.
He chose to transform.
Almost immediately, Reyker felt a huge amount of power suddenly appear in his body.
The world in front of him turned scarlet red, and a violent aura was emitted from his body.
A three-meter-tall werewolf who looked like a giant rushed into the Wolf Valley.
Flesh and blood flew everywhere, and there was blood all over the place.
The continuous whimpering of the wild wolves could be heard in the Wolf Valley.
Reyker's level continued to increase with rapid speed.
Reyker continued to train until the sky turned dark, which he then exited the werewolf state and looked at his level.
Level 9. He was only a step away from level 10.
After this, he returned to Harmon Village.
When the next day came, Reyker, who was strolling around Harmon Village, was found by Siouk.
"Young warrior, I didn't have a good night's sleep yesterday either. May I ask when will you be chasing away that annoying owl?"
"Respected Sir Siouk, although I really want to help you, I have no way to lure that owl out from the tree it's hiding in. Please wait until I think of a way. I will help you deal with it immediately then."
"There's no need for you to think anymore. I have a tool here that can help you." Siouk took out a bamboo arrow from his pocket. "This is a gift my father gave me. Now, I will give it to you. I only hope that you can get rid of that annoying owl."
"With this tool, Sir Siouk, you will definitely have a good night's sleep tonight."
"I sincerely hope so. I am going crazy from the torture."
Then, Siouk turned around and left.
At night, as expected, the owl flew to the tree branch just outside Siouk's window. Just as it started to cry, a terrifying aura came from under the tree.
The owl was so scared that it immediately flapped its wings and flew into the sky without looking back even once.
The source of the terrifying aura was naturally Reyker, who had been waiting under the tree.
This werewolf transformation buff was really useful.
Early the next morning, Reyker was already waiting at the Siouk's door.
"Oh, young warrior, thank you so much. Last night, I had a dreamless sleep. Let me ask, what did you do to that hateful owl?"
"Respected Sir Siouk, I promise, it will never bother you again."
"That's great!"
Siouk then threw another quest to Reyker.
If it were any other ordinary player, they would probably have died of anger at this point. After all, time and money were extremely precious in the early stages of the game. No one would want to waste them on this stingy NPC.
It was also because they were getting bored in the later stages of the game that players like A Psyduck returned to complete the entire chain of quests.
