Chapter 250: The Older Man Is Still the Best!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Forest Region was the second largest mission area in the eastern part of Buried City.

Moss had just arrived in the Forest Region, just like his first time entering the Wind Region. He put a lot of effort into understanding the Forest Region.

The management only provided level 3 to 7 missions here, but it did not mean they all took place in the Forest Region. For example, one could do their level 1 to 5 missions in the Wind Region and level 5 to 8 in the Fire Region.

In other words, one could take on their level 5 missions in the wind, forest, and fire regions. The region depended on the mission one received and whether or not the location occurred in the region.

Therefore, it was often challenging for a level 5 mission not to have a marked location. Some even involved areas where one could carry out their missions.

Similarly, if a level 3 or 4 mission did not have a marked location, the final mission’s location would depend on the member’s judgment or other members’ experience.

The level 3 mission in Moss’s area was relatively straightforward because it indicated it was from the Forest Region.

Although five mission levels separated the forest and wind regions, the distribution of the mission areas of each level was not as regular as in the wind region.

Other than the level 6 to 7 missions, the management randomly distributed the level 3 to 5 missions in the Forest Region’s every corner. It also caused the members trouble.

However, some of the Forest Region’s infrastructures were similar to the Wind Region’s. For example, the trading market was close to the City Lord Region while the supplies and equipment were at the trading market’s entrance.

It was relatively easy to understand these similar infrastructures’ basic situations. However, it would take plenty of time for Moss to mark each mission area on the map he had drawn.

Although he was speedy, it took him two days to mark 80% to 90% of the mission area. He only started his mission after completing these tasks.

“Tsk, it’s so tough to search for crystals.” Moss had spent half a day looking for 20 kilograms of refined iron ore.

However, Moss did not know where to find the other two types of crystals. He could complete the mission if he searched for them one at a time, but Moss did not know how much time he would waste.

“Of course, how could I forget about that older man?” Moss put the refined iron ores into his interspace dimension and ran to Novice Village. He did not use Little Seven because he stood out too much.

Everyone would recognize Little Seven since they knew Name Stolen had broken three records consecutively with him.

Moss was not slow either. His qi and blood techniques had improved exponentially compared to before. In terms of luck, he was smoother, more at ease, and more durable.

He soon arrived at Novice Village and quickly found the older man. The older man was not surprised to see Moss as he sat up and stretched lazily with his sparkling eyes. He slowly said, “You finally came looking for me.”

Moss saw the older man’s bright eyes and remembered what he said. The older man easily recognized Moss, even with Moss’s current appearance. Since that was the case, Moss knew the older man was not an ordinary person.

He sat next to the older man and said in a deep, middle-aged voice, “Yes, old man. My missions went smoothly, so…”

A trace of surprise glinted in the older man’s eyes. He laughed aloud and said, “Hahaha, your appearance and voice are better now. I wouldn’t have recognized you if we hadn’t interacted before.”

Indeed, it was rare for Moss to listen to others’ suggestions, even though he was powerful. Now, the older man looked at Moss admiringly.

Moss heard the older man’s words and quickly removed his mask and coat.

The older man saw this, laughed even more happily, and continued, “Don’t worry. I was just bored and wanted someone to chat with,” the older man stroked his beard and looked at Moss, “Tell me what you want to talk about, young man.”

Moss nodded. “I’m in the midst of a level 3 mission. Although I understand the different mission areas, I don’t know where to find specific crystals or what they are. I don’t even know what mission I can get them from.”

The older man nodded smilingly as a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes. “You took the time to determine various level mission locations. It shows that you’re very thoughtful.”

Then he patted Moss’s shoulder and continued, “You came to the right person, young man. I dare not say I have the best understanding of resources in Buried City, but I’m at least at the top of the list.”

Moss had been smiling at the older man. His eyes brightly shined as he said excitedly, “Great! Then I’ll have to trouble you to tell me what you know.”

The older man saw Moss’s performance and knew he was talking to the right person, so he started telling Moss whatever he knew with great interest.

After two hours, the older man’s stomach growled and interrupted their chat.

Moss heard the older man’s stomach rumbling and realized how dark it had gotten. It was time to eat. “Let me treat you to a meal, old man. Then we can chat while eating.”

“Hahaha, there’s no need. You can treat me to a meal if my advice helps,” the older man stretched and slowly stood up as he continued, “Let’s call it a day, young man. We’ll chat again when we have time.”

Moss did not say anymore after hearing the older man’s words. He thanked the older man and left.

The older man looked at Name Stolen’s back with a brilliant smile. He muttered, “It looks like that young man will break many records in Buried City.”

The older man heard Name Stolen had broken three records consecutively but took a resource-related mission immediately after. He could not understand why Name Stolen chose to do that.

However, based on the older man’s impression of Name Stolen, he knew Name Stolen was not a rash person. Although he did not know Name Stolen’s true thoughts, the older man knew Name Stolen had his reasons.

Moreover, seeing Name Stolen just now confirmed the older man’s thoughts.

Moss found the other two crystals with the older man’s help. However, he had spent much time consulting with the older man. As a result, Moss did not even rank above the top 1,000 when he handed in his mission.

Once this result spread, it quickly became a conversation topic among the members.

“I honestly don’t understand why this is happening. Name Stolen randomly accepted a resource-related mission instead of continuing with mount-related ones.”

“He didn’t even make it into the top 1,000 and get 10% of the additional rewards. He only got a pitiful 40 points. Indeed, the gap between the mount-related missions and his resource-related mission is massive.”

“How can you guess what Name Stolen is thinking? If you could, you would have won free points betting on him to accept a non-mount-related mission.”

After witnessing Name Stolen’s subpar performance in the resource-related mission, the members thought he would return to accepting more mount-related missions.

However, Name Stolen shocked the members when he accepted a higher-level resource-related mission.
