2024-10-29 19:42:56Everyone 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? Or is it just to add a sense of realism?
You won't find anything like this in 'Martial Earth Online'!
However, Aaron replied, "You don't need to ask that, Miss. I just completed the mission by bringing you all the heads of the orcs and goblins that I've killed with my own sword. I need to receive the payment I deserve."
Getting that answer, the beauty had nothing more to say but to tell her men to give Aaron his proper reward. As promised.
Aaron nodded in satisfaction and intended to leave the Diamond Sword Pavilion as soon as possible. He wants to go to the market in the city and buy new armor, but then suddenly the beauty called him back.
"You have amazing sword skills. I'm interested in recruiting you into the city's special forces. What is your name?"
[Alice offers a mission!]
[You have an offer to become a special soldier in Gray Stone City, Fallen Star Kingdom. If you accept, you will get 100 gold coins and 1 soul power every month. But if you reject it, you won't suffer any losses."]
Aaron took a long breath before replying, "My name is Aaron, but sorry, I can't accept your offer. Please look for another player who is more talented than me, Miss."
After saying that, Aaron turned around and walked away. The beauty named Alice could hardly believe the answer Aaron issued.
The offer of becoming a special force was something very limited. It would not be offered to players who did not have talent. When such an offer was issued, it was rare for anyone to refuse it. And after all that, how could Aaron refuse the offer without even blinking his eyes?
How unbelievable!
***
In the marketplace, Gray Stone City.
Aaron walked into a small shop that sold a lot of used armor. Of course, he didn't have enough coins to buy brand new armor, let alone go to the big store located in the city center.
His current condition forced Aaron to buy used armor at the small shop. He had to economize.
Here there were no servant girls who would suddenly appear and serve him. The shop's visitors were too many to serve one by one, and even then the shop owner didn't earn enough sales profit to hire servant girls. After that, all the customers in this shop came from underprivileged players. They didn't deserve to be served.
Aaron walked slowly while looking at the armor displayed along the walls of the shop. In his mind, he complained. All those armors were no longer worth wearing. He could analyze that the durability of those armors did not exceed 60%, despite having quite good quality and appearance.
It would be more profitable if you bought two brand new armors of lower quality. But it seemed that the poor players in this shop were more concerned with the appearance of armor than its quality.
Aaron shook his head after losing all interest in shopping. He didn't want to squander coins on a detrimental thing, so the young man wanted to quickly leave the shop and seek his luck in another shop, but his steps again stopped as his vision caught an armor that looked familiar to his eyes.
"This... isn't this my armor?"
They placed the armor on the highest spot, so it technically received less attention than the other armor. Even the 180cm tall Aaron couldn't pick it up right away, so he immediately called out to one of the male shop assistants.
"Can I help you?" the waiter asked after getting close enough to Aaron.
"Yes. Please get me that armor, I want to see it." Aaron pointed at the armor.
"Young Master, that armor is too worn out. It's been in this place for a dozen years, but no one is interested in buying it. Just today, we want to dispose of that armor." The male servant politely explained.
"But you haven't thrown it away yet. That means you're still selling the armor, right?"
Hearing Aaron's rebuttal, the male servant couldn't say anything else, so he immediately picked up a stick and took down the armor Aaron wanted.
When Aaron received and touched the armor, a feeling of nostalgia entered him. It was like he had touched it, exactly ten years ago, when he was still playing 'Martial Earth Online'. And now, the armor was back in his hands?
It was unbelievable!
The armor is made of thin leather. It was black like the night sky, but it was now very worn and some of the surfaces were peeling off. The armor looked like a short robe, with a thick belt and several small pockets.
Aaron looked at the inside of the armor, he saw an "A" mark there. That's right, this was the armor he had worn while playing 'Martial Earth Online', cause the mark of "A" is meaning "Aaron". As he recalled, this armor had accompanied his adventures for more than five months, before it was finally left behind in a motel from the enemy's pursuit.
From the outside, this armor was not attractive at all. With only level 1 and 30% durability left, its appearance wasn't appealing at all either. After that, who would be interested in buying this armor?
However, those low specs are just the outer appearance, as this armor is actually level 50 with 100% durability!
The low appearance was a way to protect the armor from greedy hands. The trick was working at this time!
"Where did you find this armor?" Aaron remained calm as he was worried that his surprise would arouse the servant's suspicion.
"My father and I found this behind a pile of rubble from a burning building. It looks like a motel, but we don't know it for sure."
Without another thought, Aaron immediately said, "I'll buy this armor. How much is it?"

"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.

"Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t!"Aaron couldn't stop from swearing. He continued to run as fast as he could, but the roar of the Giant Angry Stone was getting closer from behind him.Aaron began to think about moving to a hidden place instead of running towards the city, at least then he could secure all his equipment after being killed by the monster.So Aaron turns towards the grove of trees. His feet jumped over shrubs and sharp dry branches. Even though this is a game world, players can still feel the pain!But, Aaron now changed his running direction when he suddenly saw several sword cultivators darting towards him from the front!Aaron just wanted to avoid the players by moving to a hidden place, but why were there so many sword cultivators in this place?At the moment, Aaron's entire hope had been dashed. He quickly started planning what he should do if the worst happened: he died and lost his EXP, Black Dragon Mushroom, all his money, and even his favorite armor.They-those sword cultivat

[Friend request!][SnowWolf submitted a friend request. Do you want to accept it?]Not waiting any longer, Aaron approved it. He knew the name of that swordsman. 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

Aaron looked at a fine sword of medium quality displayed on the wall.The sword was made of black steel and looked shiny from the torches in the room. They covered the hilt of the sword with some kind of black rubber that made it non-slip when someone held it. Meanwhile, the scabbard was covered in tanned leather with some beautiful carvings on it.The sword looked perfect for a level 1 player.Aaron read the of the sword.[Night Sky Sword made of black steel combined with some magic potions][Damage +30][Resistance 200][Speed +10][Price 150 gold coins]Aaron nodded slowly. This sword had a much higher damage rate and speed than his broken sword. It only had a +10 attack and +3 speed.If he faced an opponent with 100 HP, then Aaron would only need less than 4 attacks to defeat him.But, it would be harder if the opponent was high level.For example, a player who has reached level 10 has a 200 HP capacity. So killing him, Aaron must land 7 attacks.For every additional 10 l

Aaron went to a cave to rest after a long day of hunting. This was his only chance to get out of the game so as not to get a scolding from Leen, but Aaron held back when he heard something from the deepest part of the cave."Hehehe."It was the sound of laughter.Aaron took out the Nightfeather Sword and took a stance, then sharply hissed, "Who's there?""Hehe... Aaron, am I not the person you've been looking for all this time?"Aaron threw his spit on the ground as soon as he recognized the voice. "Mordecai... I've been confident in my current strength.""Oh, of course. Facing you, I am but an ant standing on the feet of a giant elephant." Mordecai let out a compliment that was much more akin to sarcasm.

However, Mordecai was too strong and managed to defeat Aaron easily."Not bad, but you're not ready for me," Mordecai said as he stood over Aaron's limp body.Aaron didn't just give up, he tried to get up and attack Mordecai again. However, Mordecai suddenly turned into a grain of light and disappeared.Dariowyn, the knight who was Aaron's servant, came to him and gave advice. "I saw your fight with Mordecai. You have amazing abilities, but your level is still not high enough to deal with him. I suggest that you raise your level to at least 700."Aaron nodded in agreement, and vowed to increase his level as quickly as possible.
