Chapter 31: Hanjun Appearance In Front Of Players (Part 3)
After his reminder, all the players understood, each with a different expression on their face.
After Spicy Flavor Fairy carefully sorted through everything the players had said, he calmly replied, "Don\'t get too excited just yet. Based on the information we have, we still can\'t explain why the NPC is protecting the giant white wolf. There\'s definitely something more going on here."
Master PungPong felt like a bucket of cold water had been dumped on him, and he quickly calmed down, "You\'re right."
But at least they had some clues now, so Master PungPong decided to take the information they had gathered and test Hanjun.
After hearing their response, Hanjun wasn\'t very happy and said, "You guys only know the surface of things. That\'s not the full story. Snowball has never hurt anyone."
The players looked at each other, puzzled.
After thinking for a moment, Hanjun decided, "I\'ll take you to the quarry, and then you\'ll understand what\'s really going on."
With a "ding," all the players received a new mission notification.
[ Quest Objective: Follow Hanjun to the quarry. ]
[ Quest Details: Hanjun has shared new information with everyone. There\'s more to the story of the giant white wolf in the Eastern Plains, and it might not be an enemy after all. But what really happened at the quarry over ten years ago? Hanjun invites you to join him in finding out. ]
[ Quest Difficulty: Easy. ]
[ Quest Reward: 3,000 Experience Points, +1 Favor with the Chruch of Light. ]
At the same time, everyone noticed that the mission to clear out the wild beasts hadn\'t changed, meaning both missions would be happening at the same time.
Master PungPong said, "Let\'s not worry about it too much. Since the NPC said to follow him, it should be fine."
Just as he thought, the journey to the quarry was exactly as expected.
Following Hanjun\'s figure across the Eastern Plains, the trip was peaceful, without a single disturbance.
When they entered the quarry, they saw stones scattered everywhere, as if the plains had been stripped of their green covering, leaving only bare land and rocks.
From the scene, it was clear that the miners had left in a hurry, abandoning many tools where they worked.
It looked like they were frightened and evacuated from the quarry so quickly that they didn\'t even take their equipment with them.
Now, these abandoned tools would actually help them; after dealing with the wild beasts, transporting stones from here would be much easier.
Hanjun allowed them to explore the quarry on their own, standing at the entrance of a mine, waiting for them.
The players eagerly explored the new map, discussing their findings with each other.
"I can\'t believe this game is still in its first beta test, and they\'ve already made such a huge map. Imagine how big the world outside will be once we leave the beginner\'s village!"
