As he spoke, James Williams led the majority of the yordles towards the depths of the forest.
According to the map of the yordles, it would take at least two hours to pass through Misty Forest. However, this group of yordles were weak mentally and physically, which would greatly slow down their progress. Therefore, the journey would take at least three hours to complete.
"Warrior, my sixth sense detects that a group of people coveting our yordles' treasures are nearby. Please ensure our safety!"
After walking for nearly half an hour, Bolton suddenly said vigilantly, his eyes occasionally looking around.
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of silver-white hyenas suddenly appeared from the forest at the side and behind the team. At a glance, there seemed to be more than 20 of them, roaring and hissing as they pounced towards the yordles.
[Ding!]
[The yordle people are being attacked by a group of Silver-moon Wolves. Every dead yordle would greatly reduce your mission reward. It will even affect the favorability of the yordle people towards you.]
The game notification suddenly prompted.
[Silver-moon Wolf]
[Level: 21]
[HP: 1,700]
[Skills: Berserk Bite, Silver-moon roar.]
James Williams had already noticed the trees around him. The moment he saw the Silver-moon Wolves, he activated Voodoo Domain. In addition to the Chelsea Demon Dragon's "debuff", the Silver-moon Wolves' speed was reduced by 30%.
Little Orange's Energy Fluctuation had already been released, and the wolves were once again slowed down. In James Williams' eyes, they were now slow-moving targets.
Little Orange, Little Green, and James Williams formed a triangle, enclosing the group of yordles in the middle, and began to attack the Silver-moon Wolves.
- 843!
- 891!
- 1,657!
A string of red numbers appeared on the wolves' bodies. James Williams had a critical hit!
After ten attacks, he achieved a 100% attack speed bonus and a 50% critical hit bonus. In addition to the union's buff, Beginner's Luck, three out of ten of his attacks would be critical hits! He might even be able to trigger Frost Landing.
Before the wolf pack could even get within 100 yards of James Williams, he had already killed 6 Silver-moon Wolves.
[Ding!]
[Congratulation! You have killed a Silver-moon Wolf that is dangerous enough to the yordles. You have obtained 10 yordle reputation points!]
[Ding! Congratulations! …]
[Ding! …]
...
James Williams finally understood. Every time he killed a Silver-moon Wolf, a notification would appear, indicating that he had obtained some yordle reputation. Kills made by his pet were also counted. In just a short while, James Williams finished off this group of Silver-moon Wolves.
It must be known that it was very difficult to obtain yordle reputation points.
While killing the monsters, a bold idea appeared in James Williams' mind. He was ready to do something big!
James Williams unleashed attacks again and again while relying on the slowing of the Voodoo Barrier to pull the Silver-moon Wolves away from the yordle people.
Right before the Voodoo Barrier ended, all the Silver-moon Wolves turned into corpses.
[Ding!]
[Your reputation in the Yordle Insurance Company is 200 points. The yordle people's view of you has changed from apathy to insipid!]
After the battle ended, a game notification sounded.
In the Eternity Continent, the strength and reputation levels were: hostile, hatred, apathy, insipid, friendly, respect, and worship.
"Respected warrior, it seems that the giant dragon was indeed correct. Your battle was truly spectacular," the yordle manager, Bolton, congratulated him.
[Ding! Your favorability with the yordle, Bolton, have increased by 10!]
In the Eternal Continent, the favorability of NPCs was the same: hostile, hatred, apathy, insipid, friendly, respect, and worship.
With a higher favorability, the reward received from the NPC would be higher and the mission would also become easier.
Moreover, if favorability was high, the player could be recruited as a powerful assistant.
"Mr. Bolton, it's my honor to serve the yordle people," James Williams replied with a smile.
"Thank you so much, warrior. Let's not stay any longer and continue our journey. We will definitely arrive at Tulas City safely. I have full confidence in you now."
"Okay, Mr. Bolton. Please lead your team and follow me." James Williams revealed a sly smile after Bolton turned around.
In the following journey, James Williams led a group of yordle people away from the continent. They wantonly shuttled through the Misty Forest, ready to attract the aggro of all kinds of wild monsters to attack them.
They had only taken two steps when they discovered the Bloodthirsty Spider in front of them.
- 486!
- 756!
...
After a series of battles, the Bloodthirsty Spiders were quickly eliminated.
[Ding! Congratulations! You have ensured yordles' safety. Bolton's favorability towards you has increased by 10!]
[Ding! You have obtained 10 yordle reputation points!]
[Ding!]
[Ding!]
...
Another row of notifications appeared. It was only now that James Williams could confirm that as long as he resolved the danger encountered by the yordles during the escort, he would be able to gain their favorability and reputation points.
Wouldn't that mean that he could keep bringing them to the Misty Forest to gain their favorability and reputation points?!
It must be known that the yordle people's missions were very rare, and it was very difficult to meet the qualifications to do the missions. A normal mission would cause many unions to rack their minds brainstorming only to receive a few frozen reputation points and favorability points from the yordle people.
Now, he had brought the yordle people to this dense Misty Forest to wildly farm reputation points and favorability points. Casually killing a few waves of monsters for them could easily earn him some reputation points.
This was simply a blessing given to him by God.
James Williams did not know if this was a bug, but even if the current players received this mission, no one could not guarantee that they would be as capable as James Williams and bring a group of yordle people to farm monster without them suffering any injuries.
After all, they did not have their own opportunities.
"Respected Mr. Bolton, I sense danger ahead. Please follow me and come this way. I reckon this way is safer..."
James Williams had already given up on completing the mission to reach Tulas City quickly. He brought Bolton and the other yordles and ran wherever the monsters were. The monsters were now equivalent to reputation and favorability points in James Williams' eyes!
Looking at the rapidly increasing favorability and reputation points, James Williams' was almost on the verge of laughing out loud. He even pretended to be very serious as he pointed the way forward.
