Xiao Tangqiu suddenly recalled that inexplicable voice in his head. Earlier, that cold, mechanical voice announced that he had received a D level mission t.i.tled, "Fis.h.i.+ng Village's Haunted House……" So right now, were they in that "Fis.h.i.+ng Village's Haunted House" mission?

Within this small fis.h.i.+ng village, the only building that matched the "haunted house" mentioned in the mission would undoubtedly be that ancient Chinese-style building in the middle of the village. It's no wonder Luo Mansu asked the village chief about it. cQ9N5G

If Xiao Tangqiu could figure out that much, so could the others. Tang Mianmian immediately turned around to ask Luo Mansu, "Should we chase after him?"

Luo Mansu shrugged his shoulders, "Judging by his reaction, that big building over there is most likely the objective of this mission. Unfortunately, it won't be easy getting NPCs to talk unless we manage to find important clues. Or else, we'll have to look for another way."

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

"Another way?" Xiao Tangqiu raised an eyebrow, "Like beating him up?"

Luo Mansu smiled faintly at Xiao Tangqiu, "I thought that among this group, the first one to suggest something like this would've been that yellow-haired delinquent. I really didn't expect it to be you." UkB3d2

The yellow-haired delinquent immediately blew his top, "Hey, what do you mean by that?!"

But Luo Mansu didn't bother explaining himself. He grinned broadly as he continued, "You can indeed use violence to deal with NPCs. Every NPC's character is different so threatening them may or may not work, depending on the NPC. Instead, you may end up offending an NPC. You can weigh the pros and cons yourself. I'm not afraid to tell you that it's ok to kill NPCs, but if you kill an NPC that's key to the mission, you will also be killed on the spot."

Everyone kept quiet – it was obvious they each had their own opinions. Luo Mansu didn't care at all, "You can choose your partners now, whether you'd like to join me or form your own team……. Of course, even if you decide to form your own team, I won't refuse to exchange information with you. As long as you offer me valuable information, I will also share whatever information I find."

His att.i.tude could be considered frank, and in the horrifying atmosphere of this game – that is, if this world could be called a "game" – a person with such leaders.h.i.+p seemed very convincing. But, it was also precisely this that raised doubt and uncertainty. 1BW7t4

While everyone was busy sizing each other up, the quiet trio walked away without the slightest pause. Yet, none of them were surprised since the the trio didn't want to have anything to do with them from the very start.

The couple hesitated for a bit before turning away to leave while the yellow-haired delinquent partnered up with the guy in the suit. In a flash, only the twin sisters, Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian remained.

Xiao Tangqiu looked at Tang Mianmian and asked for his opinion, "Should we both partner up?"

Tang Mianmian immediately nodded in agreement. tclIEV
