Seeing the series of system prompts, Shi Feng was slightly surprised.
For a level 4 player, 10,000 experience points were not much, only increasing his level to 4-27%, still far from level 5.
What surprised him more was the other rewards.
Just killing a foolish elite demon could yield such a generous reputation reward, which was truly unimaginable.
Reputation was very precious in the Divine Realm, and few quests could increase it. Even if there were, the increases were minimal.
With enough reputation, one could receive high-level quests that were usually unavailable, and buy items that were normally unobtainable, such as bronze equipment and special potions. Buying things would also be discounted, and NPC favorability could be increased, bringing many conveniences.
Not to mention, reaching a certain level of reputation could grant nobility.
In the Divine Realm, the noble class enjoyed many privileges, which were also symbols of status. If a commoner provoked a noble, the consequences could be severe, ranging from imprisonment to execution. Therefore, no player dared to provoke a noble. Even if a noble beat up a commoner in the safe zone, the guards would not intervene, highlighting the difference in status.
This was why Shi Feng was surprised.
With the title of a noble in Maple Town, doing things would be much easier in the future. Shi Feng thought of several high-level quests that only nobles could accept.
"I wonder what the Demon Hunter title is for?" Shi Feng opened the system panel and checked the Demon Hunter title.
Demon Hunter, a revered warrior and respected demon slayer, enjoys a status similar to that of a noble in various regions, feared by dark creatures as the harbinger of death. It reduces the attributes of dark creatures within a 100-yard radius by 10% and increases damage to dark creatures by 10%.
"Damn, this title is too awesome," Shi Feng said, feeling a bit excited after reading the description.
If not for someone with a good understanding of the Divine Realm, they would not know the significance of this title, just like a stray dog wouldn't know the value of a gem.
He had to reach 100 reputation points in Maple Town to become a noble, but this title was only valid in Maple Town. Outside of it, no one would recognize it.
Of course, if it were a noble from Baihe City, the title would be recognized throughout the jurisdiction of Baihe City, making it more widely applicable. The difference between a town noble and a city noble was obvious.
The Demon Hunter title, however, granted noble status in all regions, meaning that even in other countries, his noble status would be recognized. Considering that countries were not very friendly and some were even hostile, going to other countries to complete quests was not easy and could easily lead to being targeted. With this title, he would not be targeted by NPCs, making the Demon Hunter title invaluable. Compared to the noble title in Maple Town, it was already insignificant.
Shi Feng picked up the equipment dropped by the demon clone.
Demon Mask, a special item. When worn, it can disguise the wearer as another person. Without a high-level observation skill, the disguise cannot be seen through.
"Really a good thing, worth 6 gold and 70 silver," Shi Feng happily put away the Demon Mask. This item was like a godsend for robbing and plundering, though he wouldn't do that, it could still be used for other purposes.
"Adventurer, the ritual is complete. This ritual has left me quite weak, so I need to go to Baihe City to rest for a while. If you want to know about the Dark Bible, bring the reward to Baihe City and find me. I will be waiting there." Xia Lian now looked very frail, completely different from her usual sharpness. After speaking, she directly opened a magic portal and went to Baihe City to rest.
Watching Xia Lian leave, Shi Feng was secretly amazed.
The Moon Drop ritual was not as simple as he had imagined. Otherwise, a third-tier priestess would not be so weak. Even Shi Feng could feel that he could defeat Xia Lian now, indicating how weak she was.
"Forget it, these things have nothing to do with me. Now that the curse is lifted and my attributes are restored, I can start leveling up quickly. I need to reach level 10 as soon as possible to open the portal to Baihe City." Shi Feng shrugged, no longer thinking about the affairs of the big shots. As a small player, he had many things to do. Starting from scratch, he had a lot to rebuild. Let alone competing with those guilds, just being targeted by a major demon was enough to give him a headache. He didn't have the time to think about other things.
Shi Feng then left the library and went to the Chef's Association to see how Ziyun Liuyun was doing.
Maple Town Trade District.
As soon as Shi Feng walked in, he noticed something was off.
The sun was up, and logically, players should be out leveling up in the wild. However, the streets were full of players discussing heatedly, as if celebrating a festival. Occasionally, he could see high-ranking members of major guilds running around, urgently shouting to buy game coins at high prices, with the more coins, the higher the price.
If this were a normal day, Shi Feng wouldn't have thought much of it, but the fact that the entire street was filled with people buying game coins was unusual.
What had happened?
To have these guild leaders start collecting game coins from ordinary players, it was logical that these major guilds had their own gold farming teams or contracts with professional gold farmers, providing them with a lot of game coins. Now, this indicated that even the gold farming teams couldn't meet the demand.
Shi Feng had been worrying about how to promote the consumption of these major guilds, but now it seemed unnecessary.
Shi Feng waved his finger and opened the virtual trading center to check the trading situation.
"Damn, what's going on? It's already sold out so quickly!" Shi Feng saw that the remaining 2 gold and 70 silver had been sold, and over 15,000 credit points were being transferred.
He then checked the selling situation of other Divine Realm game coins.
The highest price for one silver coin had reached 72 credit points, with most people buying in large quantities at 68 credit points, a significant increase in price.
Just as Shi Feng was happy about selling all his gold, a rebuke came from behind, interrupting his good mood.
"Brother, it's this guy. The other day, I saw him easily take out ten silver coins, he must be rich. Now that our guild needs money so badly, if we don't make this guy bleed, how can we justify being locked up for so long?" Ximen Piaoxue led a group of people, pointing at Shi Feng and sneered.
"Kid, was it you who beat up my brother?" The man called "Brother" coldly snorted, looking at Shi Feng and asked.
Shi Feng turned around and frowned slightly.
The man called "Brother" was tall and muscular, with a face full of scars, around thirty years old. In the previous life, Shi Feng had dealt with him, known as Iron Sword Mad Lion, a swordsman and one of the top experts in the Martial Alliance, very strong. He had fought several battles in the wild, killing Yan Hu twice and causing their team to suffer heavy losses, forcing them to retreat in disgrace.
Even the Assassin Alliance's Heartstab had suffered at the hands of Iron Sword Mad Lion, which made him famous and elevated the Martial Alliance to a third-rate guild.
Shi Feng was about to say something, but was interrupted by Iron Sword Mad Lion.
Iron Sword Mad Lion saw that Shi Feng was thin, but his equipment was decent, though he lacked the aura of an expert and had no guild emblem, judging him to be a casual player, a fat sheep who had bought some equipment to show off. He arrogantly said, "Little brother, when you're out in the world, you have to pay the price. Since you beat up my subordinate, pay 20 silver coins, and we'll call it even. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless with my sword."
