[Ding～You have killed level 10 leader monster Howling Moon Wolf King, EXP +5000, Reputation +4, Sin Value -100!]
Whoosh!
Golden light poured down.
[Ding～Congratulations, you have leveled up! All five main stats +1, free attribute points +3. Current level: 7. Next level requires 12,000 EXP!]
"Leader monsters really are worth the money."
Lin Mo could not help sighing.
One Wolf King directly cleared out the remaining 70 Sin Points Lin Mo had in one go.
Seeing his ID change back from red to normal white, Lin Mo felt totally refreshed.
Otherwise, he would have had to kill seventy more little monsters to clear his Sin Value before he could go back to the newbie village.
Because the system rules say: grey-name and red-name players are not allowed to enter safe zones.
And next came the most exciting moment.
"That level 5 leader Man-Eating Flower dropped a blue item and an E-rank skill book. If that blue gear hadn't exploded off me, the total profit would've been 35,000."
"This level 10 leader monster should be even more valuable, right?"
Thinking this, Lin Mo rubbed his hands together and walked over to the Howling Moon Wolf King's corpse, full of anticipation.
He rummaged around the Wolf King's corpse for a bit.
[Ding～You have picked up 15 silver coins and 38 copper coins.]
[Ding～You have picked up E-rank skill book · Blood Kill!]
[Ding～You have picked up tier 1 · purple equipment Wolf King Leg Guards!]
[Ding～You have picked up tier 1 · blue equipment Wolf King Belt!]
"Another book?"
"And even purple gear?"
Lin Mo was instantly wildly excited.
It really was a big drop.
These few things together were worth at least more than 50,000.
"Not bad! Not bad!"
"The quest rewards later will be even richer."
"Making money is just like picking money up off the ground. So easy."
He recalled his previous life.
Because he could not pay 600 yuan rent, he was kicked out by the landlord and had to sleep in an internet café for several days.
To fight over a trash white item dropped by a monster, he fell out with his teammates, shouting and arguing.
To complete quests, he went everywhere groveling to big-shot players.
Those days were something Lin Mo never wanted to experience a second time.
'In this life, I'm definitely going to stand at the very top of the Oracle world and look down on all heroes.'
Putting the Howling Moon Wolf King's loot into his backpack, Lin Mo got up, ready to leave Wild Wolf Ridge and go back to the newbie village to turn in the quest.
———
Late at night.
The desolate ridge was dead silent.
Just as Lin Mo was about to step out of Wild Wolf Ridge, suddenly a gust of cold wind swept in from ahead.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
In the darkness, two cold flashes suddenly streaked by.
Relying on his extremely high awareness and reaction speed, Lin Mo's eyes and hands were quick as he jumped to the right.
The next second, two sharp arrows landed straight at the spot where his front foot had just been.
Lin Mo's eyes went cold.
He turned his face toward the front.
Under the moonlight, he saw a large mass of players completely blocking the exit of Wild Wolf Ridge.
The ones who had fired the sneak-attack arrows were two of them.
At this stage, almost all players still only had the newbie sword gifted by the system in their hands.
Anyone who could already use a bow-type new weapon was definitely not some ordinary person.
Sure enough, looking carefully, Lin Mo saw that not only were those players all as high as level 4 or 5, but the IDs above their heads all had the same two characters as a prefix.
"Chaotic World Guild!"
In his previous life, the number-one bullying force that constantly skinned layer after layer off Lin Mo, bullying and squeezing him.
'But why would players from the Chaotic World Guild come all the way out to such a remote place so far from the newbie village?'
In his shock, Lin Mo suddenly seemed to think of something.
"That guy really did leak the information about my hidden quest to Chaotic World, huh?"
Just as Lin Mo thought of [Wind Whistling], in the crowd opposite, the man in the lead, only a little over 1.7 meters tall, average-looking, with a sleazy air about him, stared at Lin Mo, and casually asked, "The hidden quest in Yunbian Town, is it on you?"
The one speaking was exactly the guild leader of Chaotic World Guild, Hero of Troubled Times.bReal name Wang Junjie.
Only son of Jiang Province Ning'an City's richest person, Wang Yunyun.
His family did jewelry business. Since childhood he took his mother's surname. A total mama's boy.
Rumor had it the family had more than 50 billion in assets.
Enough for eight hundred generations of descendants to spend and still not finish.
But Lin Mo's truest impression of Wang Junjie was only one thing: his farts stank like hell.
In his previous life, forced by Wang Junjie to smell his farts, Lin Mo puked hugging a toilet, could not eat for several days, like morning sickness. [T/N: Ew! Why?]
Don't be fooled by how unimpressive this guy's looks were on the outside.
Inside he was even more sinister and petty.
Calling him low and shameless was praising him.
Even now, seeing Wang Junjie again, Lin Mo still had shadows in his heart.
But in just an instant, that fear was replaced by excitement.
That's right, excitement.
Because Wang Junjie had delivered himself right to his door.
Facing Wang Junjie's questioning, Lin Mo answered directly, without hiding, "Yeah, it's on me."
"Very good," Wang Junjie twisted his neck, his expression arrogant and overbearing as he said to Lin Mo, "Transfer that quest to me, and I'll spare your cheap life."
"Yeah, and one more condition. Who the hell told you to level up so fast? You stop right there. First place on Yunbian Town's level leaderboard has to be me."
In the Oracle world, because hidden quests are too difficult, they basically all have one chance to be "transferred."
In his previous life, quite a lot of players got lucky and accidentally triggered hidden quests. Since their own strength was not enough to complete them, they chose to transfer the quest for a high price and sell it to strong big-shot players.
That way they could also earn some money. Not a loss.
Lin Mo did not beat around the bush either.
He said to Wang Junjie, "Sure, no problem."
"Flat price, ten million."
At those words, Wang Junjie froze for a moment.
Then he smiled faintly and said, "Looks like you must have figured out who I am."
"My mom is Ning'an's richest, my family's assets are over 50 billion. A mere ten million is just… the hair of Seven Wolves."
As soon as he finished, a lackey next to him reminded him in a low voice, "Boss, that saying is 'one hair from nine oxen'."
"I fcking know that!", Wang Junjie slapped the lackey on the head, "I did it fcking on purpose! You think I need your reminder?"
Saying that, Wang Junjie continued to speak to Lin Mo, "I can afford ten million, but can a cheap thing from the lower rungs of society like you even dare take it?"
Lin Mo raised two fingers, speaking lightly, "Then twenty million."
Wang Junjie flew into a rage, "Damn it, you don't understand what I'm saying, is that it?"
"Give you face and you don't want it. You don't… don't know how to raise your head, you cheap thing!"
At this time, the lackey beside him again quietly reminded, "Boss, you messed it up again. That saying is 'don't know what's good for you'."
"I know!"
"I f*cking know!"
"You just talk too much! Let's see if I don't fix you for talking too much!"
Wang Junjie grabbed the purple-quality Magic Bow he had spent 20,000 yuan on in the auction house and with two "whoosh! whoosh!" arrows, directly shot the talkative lackey into white light.
The next moment, Wang Junjie pointed at Lin Mo, his face twisted with ferocity, "One sentence: the quest goes to me! Otherwise I'll make it so you can't survive in Oracle, kill you all the way to account lock!"
Lin Mo was unhurried.
Swish!
The World-Shattering · Flowing Light Sword stuck in the ground suddenly burst out with a dazzling golden glow.
"The quest is on me."
"If you've got what it takes, come and take it."
