"If you accept, it means you agree to all the risks of this assignment. Your death is beyond our responsibility. Understood?" The beauty said again, now more serious.

Once again Aaron nodded and replied, "I understand."

"Please accept this plaque." Out of thin air, the beauty took out a small plaque, Aaron took it without hesitation.

[YOU RECEIVED THE FIRST MISSION!

[The level is open!]

[STATUS

Level: 1

Physical strength: 30

Soul power: 31

Endurance: 100

HP: 1000

Mana: 0

Armor resistance: 100]

Aaron smiled with satisfaction. This is just like in the game of 'Martial Earth Online', where a new level started after the player accepted the first mission. If the player wasn't serious, he wouldn't have a level, and his status would be the same as an NPC.

The young man didn't wait any longer. He exited the Diamond Sword Pavilion and ran towards the nearby forest of this city. Aaron had already memorized the streets of Gray Stone City in his head, so he was able to reach the forest in a brief time.

Aaron didn't come across any orcs or goblins right away, but he found their tracks on the wet ground. The creatures were lurking around, but they didn't attack right away.

"They're so smart." Aaron smiled widely.

The orcs and goblins in the 'Martial Universe Online' were much smarter than those in 'Martial Earth Online'. Normally, orcs and goblins would directly attack their opponents without a second thought and with no strategy. But now, look at how patiently they wait for opportunities to open up!

Most players who died under the onslaught of orcs and goblins didn't really realize that they were being monitored by these creatures, so they take a casual attitude and eventually let their guard down. The reason for the orc and goblin attacks was a bug as they appeared suddenly in unreasonable numbers.

If only the players could realize this mistake early on, the chances of them K.O. would be very small, as they could dodge before the ambush happened.

But Aaron wasn't here to dodge. Instead, he wanted to lure those orcs and goblins to come for him!

The young man wandered around to gather some dry twigs as well as large rabbits. For a highly experienced sword master like himself, Aaron had no trouble at all. When a rabbit passed nearby, he simply threw his sword!

And it was right on target!

A sword master can make his sword into any weapon, as well as turn anything into his sword!

He managed to collect five rabbits before burning them all with the branches he had collected earlier. He ate only one piece of rabbit meat, while it left the rest in the fire to burn on. The smell of burnt rabbit meat filled the entire forest!

Faint sounds of leaves crunching could be heard. As time passed, the sounds became more numerous and closer. Aaron put down the rabbit meat onto the ground. He began to feel the take of the sword at his waist.

Aaron felt something sneaking up behind him, but he pretended not to notice. Until the movement was less than a meter away from him, Aaron suddenly rises to his feet and very quickly turned his body backward.

The blade slashed the head of the orc that tried to attack him from behind!

Just as the orc's body fell with its head, other orcs jumped out from within the thicket with loud cries. They formed a line and immediately surrounded the young man.

Aaron watched the orcs. They wielded jagged daggers made of bone. The armor they wore was wolf skins and fur, woefully inadequate for combat use except to scare the opponent. But Aaron wasn't afraid at all, even finding them very cute in their Halloween costumes!

One orc jumped up and attacked without much thought. Aaron simply flicked his sword once to knock his opponent down.

Now two orcs jumped simultaneously towards him but were immediately knocked down after Aaron made a circular motion. For the young man, one strike was enough to kill them!

More and more orcs were attacking him, but the young man had absolutely no trouble wiping them out with his sword!

After 30 minutes, Aaron successfully finished the battle and came out as the winner. He was breathing heavily. Even if he was a sword master, but with a low level like this, still slaughtering many orcs at the same time was something exhausting.

But Aaron didn't wait any longer, he began to collect all the orc heads he managed to kill. There were a total of 50 very ugly orc heads. The average orc defeated by him had a level of 1 to 5, but none exceeded level 10, or else perhaps Aaron would have had great difficulty.

"This whole orc... I'll get 250 silver coins. That's equal to 2 gold coins and 50 silver coins. I can replace my armor with a better one." Aaron exhaled slowly, he was sure that it had reduced the durability of his armor quite a lot. "Bring up my status!"

[STATUS

Level: 1

Physical strength: 30

Soul power: 31

Endurance: 100

HP: 1000

Mana: 0

Armor resistance: 30]

Aaron did not have any difficulties while facing the orcs, but that did not mean he did not receive any attacks at all. After being hit by several attacks, his armor resistance was almost depleted.

**

Diamond Sword Pavilion, Gray Stone City.

Aaron placed all the orc heads that he had killed on the ground. After straightening his waist from exhaustion, he looked around and found many other sword cultivators looking at him with disbelieving gazes.

An officer came over carrying several pieces of paper and a pen. Looking Aaron up and down, his gaze showed suspicion.

"These are all yours?" the officer asked.

"Yes. This is all." Aaron answered briefly.

The officer still harbored suspicions, but then chose not to care. If Aaron bought all those orcs and goblin heads from another sword cultivator, it didn't matter much. To the officer, anyone who brought orc or goblin heads to him can deserve the money.

He started counting and taking notes. But before giving Aaron his wages, a female voice stopped his movements.

"Wait a minute!"

    Everyone in that place turned their heads towards one place and found a beautiful woman who was in charge of orc and goblin affairs within the city. When they saw the beauty, everyone immediately bowed their heads, except Aaron who didn't feel the need to do that. The woman was the same person Aaron had met this morning."You killed all these orcs and goblins?" The beauty asked."Yes. All of this," Aaron replied."But how come?" The beauty frowned, showing her confusion. "You are a beginner, and your level is no more than the first level. This is unnatural."In his mind, Aaron chuckled. The NPC in this game had incredible intelligence. She could take issue with things that were beyond reason. Could this be the developer's way of preventing cheats from the players?

    "Young Master, are you sure to buy it? This armor is completely broken ...."Aaron nodded once. That was a sufficient answer. He has to get that armor, no matter what it costs.But the servant thought otherwise. He thought Aaron was poor to dare to buy armor that should have been thrown away. Perhaps the young man was hoping to get it at a cheap price, or even for free.With a condescending look, the servant said, "You can get it for 1 silver. But that's not the price for the armor, but rather for my precious time that was wasted in keeping you company. This armor is trash, it should be food for sewer rats, so I dare not put any price on it."Aaron smiled awkwardly and took out a gold piece. "Although this armor is trash, I still bought it in your shop. Unless this shop of yours is a trash can, I won't take this armor without paying."Aaron gave his money and took the armor from the waiter's hand. He immediately left the shop, leaving the waitress stunned because she didn't expect Aar

    "Roarrrr!"The roar of a savage rabbit broke the silence of the forest when Aaron managed to plunge the sword into his quarry. In no time, the poor rabbit died before giving Aaron some experience."Ah, you're just bothering me." Aaron wiped his sweaty forehead. "I didn't want to deal with you at all, but you attacked me first. Don't blame me if I have to kill you."Killing wild animals would indeed give players more EXP than killing orcs or goblins, but Aaron's goal was not to hunt wild animals or anything like that. He was only looking for orcs or goblins to pay off all his debts before quitting playing any kind of video game.However, the nuisance of wild animals is unavoidable. They wouldn't be called "beasts" if they didn't attack humans for no reason. When faced with them, there are only two options: fight or die.Aaron didn't want to die for such a silly matter, so he had no other choice but to fight back, even if it cost him a lot of time."Bring up status!"[STATUSLevel: 1Ph

    That's a big mockery! As ugly as orcs were, they still had peace. But, their demeanor always ruined the peace of others, hence Aaron calling them devoid of peace."You will pay for this!" the orc leader roared. "Finish him!"The rest of his men shouted before running towards Aaron. The young man faced them calmly, as he still believed in the swordplay skills he had once mastered.When the first five orcs were within his reach, Aaron directly slashed his sword. The power he possessed was immense, as the perfectly measured slash. The five orcs died without giving the young man any resistance.Aaron didn't stand still as another dozen orcs moved toward him. His eyes zeroed in on the weakest of the orcs before running full force towards them while blaming!He could take out up to eight orcs with a single slash. But at the same time, there were dozens of orcs attacking him, so there were some attacks from them that Aaron couldn't dodge.Without a shield, Aaron could only attack without par

    Aaron surprised many people when he returned to Gray Stone City. How could they not? He bound 160 orc heads like long chains and dragged them through the city streets. The sight was too gruesome!Luckily, international rules do not allow MMORPG games to create too many child characters in their world. There aren't moral restrictions in this game. The players could do whatever they pleased!Thus, the sight of Aaron dragging the many severed orc heads did not reach the children.When he arrived at the Diamond Sword Pavilion, the sight was even more shocking. Most of the people gathered here were assassins who hunted orcs and goblins, just like Aaron. Seeing the number of orc heads brought by the young man, they couldn't help but open their jaws.What Aaron got was equivalent to the results got by a guild of 5 players with at least level 4. Whereas the young man was only by himself and still at level 1...Unbelievable by any possibility!People speculated that Aaron had trapped a guild s

    Aaron accepted the tool but his face did not show any kind of happy expression. Seen from any angle, Sir Janson's tool already looked old and rusty. So, how could he believe that it still can be worked?Seeing Aaron's expression, Sir Janson said again, "If you don't want it, I can take it back. As long as you know, I also don't want this tool to get damaged after you use it."Aaron coughed from choking on his saliva. How could Sir Janson be more worried about his tools than the player's safety? Didn't NPCs generally put the players' safety above all else?And, what was the point of Alice's medal of appreciation? It should have given Aaron a little privilege of honor from the NPCs. Now, look at how respectful Sir Janson is.However, right now Aaron didn't have much of a choice. The tool of the shameless old man was bad, but it would be better than not using it."Alright, I accept it and I'll be right back with the Black Dragon Mushroom.

SnowWolf... was absolutely not his real name."Alright. I have to return to the town now." Aaron smiled as he said goodbye, but SnowWolf held him back."Brother, we should still split the profits with you. At the very least, accept 50 gold coins if you don't want all of them," SnowWolf said.Aaron still refused, saying that their friendship was worth much over 50 or even 100 gold coins. But SnowWolf would feel guilty if Aaron didn't take that, leaving the young man with no other choice.Aaron continued his journey towards Gray Stone City. Along the way, some Destroyer Beasts, such as wolves, jungle cats, and other wild animals, attacked Aaron several times.He didn't have a sword to defeat them, but he still had his legs and Sir Janson's speed-boost potion to run fast.Although he knew that the flesh and skin of Destroyer Bea
