This was the first class they could get early in the game.
If they didn't want this class, they could only learn simple light-type magic from Father Barry and use melee weapons for attacks.
Becoming a priest would unlock more light-type magic and improve the overall game experience.
However, when they applied to Father Barry, their applications were rejected.
The new players didn't understand why Father Barry rejected their applications until they saw the system message.
[ System Notice: Father Barry has rejected your application, believing you are not yet ready to become a priest. ]
The new players realized that becoming a priest required certain conditions, and since they had just started the game and completed only a few tasks, they had not yet met those conditions.
Return of the King stood among the crowd, occasionally glancing at Hanjun in front of him.
What motivated him to join the game was seeing Hanjun during Master PungPong's live streaming.
Seeing Hanjun made him think that beauty knows no gender, and he became a fan of Hanjun.
Now, his expression was like someone who had just met their idol.
Hanjun could feel that the faith energy coming from Return of the King was much stronger than from other players, and he glanced at him.
However, Return of the King wasn't a fan who wanted to be noticed by his idol.
While he was happy to catch a glimpse from afar, he quickly hid back into the crowd when he realized Hanjun had noticed him.
Hanjun: "..."
He kindly addressed the players, saying, "Everyone, you'll need to work hard from here on."
With the crowd in front of him, Hanjun only needed to say it once to assign the quests and hand them the design drawings by Flower Deer.
He then added, "If you have any questions, you can ask Flower Deer."
Seeing the task, the players sighed and complained, "Another infrastructure quest? I'm going to be exhausted."
"Stop complaining, I don't see you with any debuffs."
"Even though infrastructure quests give a lot of experience, this much hard work isn't easy."
"Stop complaining. I heard from a beta test player that once we finish building these basic facilities and level up, we'll need to head south to start a new storyline. Instead of complaining here, it's better to finish the quests quickly and level up."
"How do you know that?"
"I joined a beta test player group chat for God's Games Online yesterday. That's how I found out."
"What group chat? I want to join too."
The players were clearly ready to grind their level hard.
In just two days, Flower Deer called Father Barry and Hanjun over to inspect the ironworks.
The most impressive part was the two large blast furnaces.
Building such a large ironworks with Ulon Town's simple equipment was no small feat.
Hanjun nodded his head and said, "Call the Blacksmith Uncle over. You can show him how to operate the equipment. For the next few days, you'll need to work hard. Once the town's people return, they can start working here."
