Game Starts With The Scarecrow - Chapter 12

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After equipping the two pieces of equipment, his stats increased slightly, but not by much.

This was mainly because Mo Fan’s stats were several times higher than normal players to begin with.

Therefore, after he put on these equipment, his stats didn’t increase that much.

The four points of Constitution added by the clothes made up for the difference caused by the human bloodline talent, allowing the three main attributes to be the same.

If someone with OCD saw this, they would probably cry out in pleasure.

Mo Fan listed the equipment he had unequipped on the official website.

Not long after, he received another $200.

The current price of the torn equipment set had dropped significantly from its peak.

The “Torn Shirt” was only sold for $73, while the “Torn Shoes” was only sold for $151.

White equipment had also started to appear in the trading section.

The lowest price was for a piece of them was $500.

As soon as these white equipment appeared, they were instantly bought by other players.

He did not see any green or yellow equipment.

Mo Fan checked the rankings.

The leaders in the rankings had already reached Level 7.

In comparison, most players were still at Level 6.

Level 10 required too much Spiritual Energy to reach.

If he reached Level 10, these players would probably be Level 9 already.

At that time, the level gap would gradually tighten.

However, the difference in stats was not something that could be reduced in such a short period of time.

So far, Mo Fan did not know what class he belonged to or what kind of growth system he had.

He only knew that his stats after leveling up were much higher than the average player.

“Other players have their own class after Level 10. It could be Warrior or Archer, but what about me?”

“Scarecrow Class?”

“Chrysanthemum Spirit Class?”

“Or maybe… a Troll Class?!!”

“Cough! Cough! No way!”

“I will never become such a thing!”

Mo Fan’s expression immediately changed several times as he shook his head.

Whether it was the Boss or a monster, no matter what he would become in the future—it was not something he should consider now.

The most important thing that he had to do right now was to level up!

Qingyi Changfeng could go offline to rest, but Mo Fan could not go offline yet.

He still had to obtain more than 9.9 million Spiritual Energy Points and Level 10.

If he calculated based on the 500,000 points of Spiritual Energy in the previous hour, he would need to farm for 20 consecutive hours.

He had been online for more than nine hours already.

He would probably die if he stayed for another 20 hours.

“How can I quickly accumulate 10 million Spiritual Energy Points?”

Mo Fan frowned as he walked slowly along a path

After passing through the place where Chrystem was located, Mo Fan walked towards the boundary of the forest.

There were no wild monsters here.

The trees were sparse, and the surroundings were empty.

A cold breeze blew from time to time.

The surroundings were eerily quiet.

If Mo Fan had not forced himself to remain calm, he would have turned around and left this place long ago. Even catching up with those chrysanthemum spirits was better than coming to this terrifying place.

The game environment was simply too realistic.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Mo Fan finally walked out of the forest.

Outside the forest was a mountain range that seemed to be endless.

Just as Mo Fan continued his exploration, he heard a girl’s sobbing nearby.

He turned his head and saw a teenage girl sitting on the ground not far away, sobbing sadly.

What was going on?

Was this a player or an NPC?

Could it be that the Goddess of Luck was about to visit him again?

A hidden mission?!

Mo Fan’s thoughts instantly became active.

He hid the special light effects of his equipment.

Then, he walked over with shining eyes.

The girl lowered her head and sobbed as if she hadn’t notice nor saw Mo Fan.

“Ah~ Little girl, why are you crying?”

Mo Fan asked as gently as he could.

The moment the girl looked up, Mo Fan was stunned.

What a beautiful… what a beautiful little girl!

“Big brother, I’m so sad. Can you help me find Young Miss?”

The girl stopped crying and wiped her tears.

“What? Young Miss?”

Mo Fan muttered in his heart.

“Yes!”

Seeing the girl nod, the muscles on Mo Fan’s face stiffened.

I don’t even look for prostitutes1 myself, and you want me to find one for you?!

Such a beautiful girl was actually a lesbian?!

Was she serious?

No matter how sad she was, she should not casually look for a random lady to vent her anger on.

No! I have to ask more questions!

Mo Fan cleared his throat and asked.

“Why are you looking for her?”

“Young Miss was taken away by a monster that was headed for Maple Leaf City. I couldn’t even catch up to it. If I can’t find her, I will definitely be beaten to death by Master if I go back alone!”

The girl started crying again.

So it was a story between a servant and her Missy. She should have said it earlier!

He really could not tell!

What was he thinking?

Had he been single for too long?

Mo Fan held his forehead and rubbed his temples with his thumb.

He closed his eyes and thought to himself: Am I someone who is filled with such vile thoughts?

“Alright, alright, stop crying. Tell me where Maple Leaf City is, and I’ll help you find her, alright?”

Mo Fan waved his hand impatiently.

After hearing what Mo Fan said, the girl immediately stopped crying and pointed in the direction of Maple Leaf City.

At this moment, Mo Fan received a system notification.

[Mission Accepted: Find Miss Dong (Unique)]

[The servant girl Yu’er entrusted you to find Miss Dong who was captured by monsters, go to the outskirts of Maple Leaf City and investigate the truth.]

[Mission Reward: 5,000,000 Spiritual Energy Points and one random yellow equipment]

Seeing this mission, Mo Fan could not help but be surprised.

The Spiritual Energy reward was so high.

But before he could ask the servant girl Yu’er more questions about this so-called Miss Dong—she turned into light crystals and disappeared from his sight.

She was indeed an NPC whose function was to issue missions.

Mo Fan glanced at the mountain range not far away and got up to walk over it.

According to the direction Yu’er was pointing at, Maple Leaf City was on the other side of the mountain range. Naturally, he had to pass through this mountain range to get there.

Earlier, he was still worried about Spiritual Energy.

He truly did not expect to receive such a mission with these generous rewards.

As long as he completed this quest and farmed a few wild monsters, he would be able to reach Level 10 faster than if he only farmed monsters.

“Everyone, run! The Welfare Boss is in the east. If we’re late, it’ll be gone!”

“Really? Can we really get to kill the Welfare Boss?”

“Of course!”

“That’s right! My brother even saw a bunch of people from Proud World blocking the way. They refused to let us pass.”

“Yeah! They want to monopolize the Welfare Boss, but they were all scattered by the Brilliant Guild! They’re all rushing there now!”

Outside the beginner village, a crowd of players rushed towards the forest in the east like a tidal wave.

After 12 hours since the game started, every player received a system announcement:

[System Announcement: [Newbie Welfare Boss] has been spawned at the border of the beginner village. After killing it, you will receive double experience cards and various newbie equipment. Everyone, please proceed to kill it immediately!]

Most of the players were already familiar with how difficult it was to get equipment in this game.

Since there was a Newbie Welfare Boss and everyone had a chance to kill it, they would definitely not let it go.

Not only the big guilds but also the various studios, as well as solo players, rushed towards the border of the beginner village.

Unfortunately, Mo Fan seemed to be not categorized as a player, so he did not receive this announcement.

He leisurely walked towards the mountain range of the beginner village.

Footsteps suddenly came from behind Mo Fan.

A crowd of players rushed out of the forest and ran towards him.

Mo Fan looked at the crowd behind him.

He was instantly dumbfounded by the scene.

Holy sh*t!

What was going on?

Were Proud World and Blue Ocean this vengeful?

Was there a need to chase him all the way here?

Mo Fan’s expression changed a few times before he also turned tail and ran.

But as he ran, he realized that something was wrong.

It seemed that he wasn’t the players’ target.

Moreover, there were also players that were not from Proud World and Blue Ocean among the crowd. Judging from their names, they were members of other guilds.

Some caught up to Mo Fan, but they did not do anything to him.

Instead, they ran ahead at an even faster speed.

At this moment, Mo Fan’s running speed slowed down.

Hearing the intense discussions of the surrounding players…

Mo Fan thought for a moment before he finally understood what was going on.

There was actually a Welfare Boss at the border of this beginner village?

There was even a system announcement.

But he did not receive any announcement!

The game system wasn’t treating him as a player?

“Although I’m a monster, my true identity is a player. Is there a need to treat me like this?”

Mo Fan helplessly shook his head.

He walked for half a day, but he did not see any Newbie Welfare Boss.

Knowing this, Instead of searching blindly along with these players, it was better for him to wait for an opportunity.

After all, he was alone.

He would not be able to snatch the kill from so many players.

Mo Fan slowed down and followed behind the players.

Earlier, he didn’t find anything amiss with the mountain range. But when he got closer to it, he realized that the mountain range wasn’t small at all. He could not even see the summit of the mountain while he was on its base.

There were some shrubs and a few bald trees on the mountain.

The higher they went, the less vegetation existed.

When the players arrived, they split up into several groups to search for the Boss.

Mo Fan ignored these players and climbed up the mountain.

He had to find a higher ground so that he could observe the players and the Boss.

Just as Mo Fan reached the mountainside, he realized that there was a group of people following him. He did not know if they were doing it intentionally or not.

Walking away, Mo Fan hid behind a huge rock.

After a while, the few people behind caught up with his traces. They were surprised to find that Mo Fan had seemingly disappeared into thin air.

“Huh? Where is he?”

“Brother Wolf, he was here just now!”

“He must still be nearby. Let’s continue our search.”

A total of four people appeared in Mo Fan’s line of sight.

Seeing these people, Mo Fan was stunned.

He was familiar with them.

They were the ones including “I Am Gray Wolf” that he had killed back then.

Mo Fan walked out and appeared behind them with a cold snort.

“I Am Gray Wolf” and the other three jumped in fright.

When they turned around and saw Mo Fan, they heaved a sigh of relief.

“Oh my God, I was so scared!”

I Am Big Sausage patted his chest.

“Bunao Biaoyin!”

I Am Gray Wolf went up to greet him

“Why are you sneaking around? Why are you following me?”

Mo Fan frowned. His tone was unfriendly.

Although these people did not seem to have any ill intentions against him, Mo Fan still raised his guard.

As long as they could not explain themselves properly, he was prepared to kill them.

His Human Bloodline Fragments was about to fulfill the criteria necessary for it to reach the next level. Killing a few players should be enough for him to upgrade it.
