Chapter 516 - Peasant’s Strange Encounter
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
After the previous battle, Peasant was very happy. Though he was unable to deceive Eggface to rescue the prisoners of the Godly Kingdom and trigger a Strange Encounter Mission, he had received generous rewards from the game system.
Just like how the gamers of Victoria City achieved victory in the Battle Campaign, the gamers of Eternal Kingdom occupied the Dark Portal and achieved a Battle Campaign victory. They also received handsome rewards. They could make use of the Dark Portal to attack gamers of Victoria City at the crossroad intersection outpost or the Victoria Forest on the Surface World.
Attacking the gamers of Victoria City would yield huge amounts of equipment and the much-needed Honor Points that could be used to exchange for a lot of items. The gamers of Eternal Kingdom made a huge killing.
When they were escorting the prisoners of the Godly Kingdom, they received many Strange Encounter Missions. Most of these prisoners requested that the gamers help them escape the Underworld and promised to give handsome rewards.
The gamers didn’t care whether the prisoners were speaking the truth. It wasn’t easy to obtain Strange Encounter Missions. The gamers would have to test them out. What if the missions were real?
However, Peasant didn’t have much hope. After he and the gamers tried to put a spell on Eggface to release the prisoners and the plan failed, Peasant didn’t put any more effort into it. He wanted to complete more Daily Missions, challenge the Instance Dungeon, go shopping at Winterfell, pillage the Victorians at Victoria Forest with Arthur, fight with opposing Guild members, mentor new Guild members, and improve his equipment. If possible, he would also like to get some cool furniture and exotic ornaments.
Peasant didn’t ask for much.
Sometimes, when one didn’t want much, fortune came to them. Peasant encountered such a situation.
When he met up with Arthur and his companions, a pebble hit him on the back of the skull. Then his vision became dark, and he fell unconscious. When he recovered, he was at the game entry interface.
“Holy cow! What’s the situation?”
Peasant felt a chill. He also felt as though he had gone offline. He didn’t die because, if he did, he would have been given a new character or a revival option.
He was knocked unconscious!
He felt the chill slipping up his head and was shocked. He was in the safe zone of Eternal Kingdom, which meant that the other gamers were unable to attack him. The creature who hit him wasn’t a gamer. Perhaps it was a Strange Encounter?
Peasant was excited. He tried to enter the game, but the interface was all black. He was still unconscious.
He waited for tens of minutes without any progress, so he decided to use Wechat to contact Arthur and NotWearingPants.
Wechat Group [Dungeon Monsters Chat Group]:
[DuringSeventeenYears(Peasant)]: Gosh! I discovered something big!
[InsignificantChilvarousKnight(NotWearingPants)]: Say it properly. Don’t bait us. What do you mean?
[NationalTreasure(BurningChestHair)]: What’s up? Why are you sending Wechat messages instead of playing the game?
Peasant obtained immediate responses from his comrades.
He didn’t have the time to joke, quickly telling them of his encounter. Everyone was bewildered. How could he be knocked unconscious? Perhaps it was a Strange Encounter?
Peasant wasn’t sure. He informed everyone of the location where he fell unconscious so that they could check on him. Next, he tried to enter the game repeatedly. He felt excited and nervous.
Tens of minutes later, he finally entered the game and opened his eyes. He noticed the dim light and a pair of eyes in the darkness.
“You’re awake, insignificant Houndhead Man,” the owner of the pair of eyes said in a hoarse voice. Peasant swallowed hard. He was happy inside. Finally, he had a Strange Encounter Mission.
“Yes, it’s me! You must be requesting my help. That’s why you knocked me unconscious. No problem. Tell me how I can help. I’ll definitely assist you!” Peasant said sincerely, but the hidden figure wasn’t in a hurry to respond.
The figure sized Peasant up before smiling and saying, “I’m relieved to see that you’re friendly. Don’t worry, I’m not requesting your help. I’m here to help you, Houndhead Man. This is your lucky day!”
The hidden figure spoke like a conman. From his tone, he was no different from a swindler, but Peasant didn’t care. As long as it was a Strange Encounter Mission, he was agreeable. He nodded and said loudly, “That’s correct, I need your help. Are you granting me a wish? I’m willing to accept any equipment!”
“No, it’s not about this. I want to save your friends,” the dark figure said.
Peasant pondered for a while and asked bewilderedly, “Are you saying that Arthur and his companions are in danger?”
He could only think of Arthur and his companions. After all, Peasant didn’t have many friends. Besides the Guild members of the Pioneer Alliance, he didn’t play with other gamers.
“No, they are the friends whom you mentioned just now. They are your relatives and friends from the Rural Support. I heard what you said just now!” the dark figure said as he walked out slowly from the darkness. His head was bald and wrinkled, and his eyes looked dull, far different from the eyes in the darkness. Behind the head was a hard tortoise shell.
Standing before Peasant was an old tortoise. To be precise, it was an old turtle. There was a difference between a tortoise and a turtle.
This wasn’t an ordinary turtle. Peasant recognized that he was Lord Sherlock’s pet and a newly added NPC.
“His name was Frangipani. I triggered Frangipani’s Strange Encounter Mission. I’m very lucky!”
