The Return of the Sword God

The Return of the Sword God
Lonely Snow's



Shi Feng walked on the road leading to the town hall, filled with people.


The less spacious path was filled with players. They were talking to the NPCs, taking the opportunity to obtain a Quest. Such a sight gave one such feeling of arriving at the market.


Unfortunately, obtaining a Quest in Gods Domain was no easy task. The main reason was, the NPCs had high intelligence, thus giving them the ability to have one-on-one conversations. Moreover, players had to pay attention to what they said or risk being ignored by NPCs. And there was a wave of players as a competition; obtaining an easy-to-find Normal Quest was really difficult.


After more than ten minutes since Gods Domain began, not a single player in Red Leaf Town had received a Normal Quest yet.


In comparison, Shi Fengs advantage as a reincarnated person was simply incredible. Not only did he receive a Quest, but it was a Unique Quest; albeit a bit damned. However, the reward of the Unique Quest was truly incredible. Even top players who had played Gods Domain for a month would drool at the rewards of this Unique Quest.


As a person who had reincarnated, Shi Feng had the experience of leading thousands of people while he was in Shadow Workshop. They had even built ten City States. The amount of information about Gods Domain that was within his grasp far surpassed what the average player knew. This is especially true when it comes to strategies for leveling up and making money. These were the essentials one must have in a Workshop with thousands of players to grow in strength.


Now that he had reincarnated and played Gods Domain again, Shi Feng wanted to use this information to gather a large amount of profits. It was all to build a better foundation for its future development. So naturally, he would not imitate an average player, spending hours on the streets just to fight over one Normal Quest. Moreover, he would not imitate those skilled players, using their refined techniques to kill monsters in the wild, because, at this moment, it was, there are probably more players than monsters in the wild.


What Shi Feng wanted to do was avoid this pile of players; hence why he had chosen a Unique Quest that had an unreasonable level of difficulty.


However, completing this Quest required money, something Shi Feng did not currently possess.


Each player will receive 10 Copper Coins at the beginning of the game. Although it was not enough to purchase Weapons or Equipment, buying drinks to recharge HP or MP was not a problem.


When Shi Feng arrived in front of the two-story City Hall, he met hundreds of people queuing in long lines.


Regardless of what game it was, the Village Chief or the Mayor was undoubtedly the target to receive the Quest. Of course, no player would waste this opportunity.


“Hei newcomer, queue up if you don't want to incur public anger,” from inside the queue, a simple-looking and honest-looking male Warrior looked at Shi Feng. The soldier raised his hand, pointing towards the back of the line of people.


“I'm not here to receive Quest.” Shi Feng said nonchalantly while looking at the long queue in front of the City Hall.


Compared to other locations, this place has good regularity and efficiency. Although it took more time to receive the Quest, it was much better than some people who could not accept it at all.


The male warrior carefully looked at Shi Feng. Everyone was frantically trying to accept the Quest right now... But there was someone who actually said that he was not interested in it? Not even a ghost would believe it!


“To be honest I'm not here to receive a Quest,” Shi Feng looked at the male soldier. Looking at that person's hostile eyes and how he thought Shi Feng wanted to jump over the queue, Shi Feng said with a smile, “However, I advise you to accept a Quest somewhere else. You will just be in vain waiting here.”


“Why is that pointless? There were already some people who came out after receiving Quest.” After confirming that Shi Feng did not intend to jump over the queue, the male Soldier heaved a sigh of relief. He had been queuing for over ten minutes now and he definitely did not want anyone to cut the queue. However, hearing Shi Fengs resolute tone made him wonder why he was not waiting for anything.


Shi Feng smiled but did not explain further. Instead, he changed the subject by saying, “Seeing you are not a bad person, I will direct you towards a brighter path. Kill the mob in the field. You will have a better future than staying here.”


"I'm not leaving. There are too many monsters in the wild and I cannot compete with anyone else. This place is still better” The male soldier shook his head. He's not a fool. At this moment, there must be a huge wave of people in the Field Area. Just by his skill, he might not even be able to catch monsters, so it was better that he wait here alone.


“That's because you went to the wrong place. If you go somewhere with little monsters, of course, there will be no one who can compete with you. Compared to the area filled with players and monsters, the leveling efficiency there was several times better. Not only that, the reappearance rate of monsters there is slow, so one person can easily handle himself,” Shi Feng said with a smile.


“Is there really such a place?”


The male warrior was extremely excited after listening to Shi Feng. He was very interested in such a location. He still needed to wait over an hour to receive a Quest and the rewards he could obtain were only EXP and a small amount of money. If he could grind monsters for an hour unhindered, the EXP he could obtain would far exceed that of a Quest.


“Of course there are. I'll give you a special price of 20 Copper if you want to go to such a valuable location. Don't mention EXP; after grinding for a day, the materials you can obtain will give you more than 40 Copper. If you are lucky, you can make a ton more if an equipment falls,” Shi Feng walked up to the male Warrior, whispering into his ear.


“You didn't fool me, did you?” The male warrior looked at Shi Feng with doubt in his eyes. If there was such a valuable location, he could definitely outperform other players; but 20 Copper was not a small amount. Monsters in Gods Domain rarely dropped money or equipment, so Copper Coins were extremely valuable.


“If you don't believe me, you can pay 10 Copper in advance first. You will find out just by trying it out once you arrive at that place. If that's true, you can pay me another 10 Copper. I'm telling you this just because I think you're a good person. Forget it, if you don't believe me.” Shi Feng turned around and left after uttering his share.


Shi Feng would not do this if he did not lack money. Worst of all, he would only use other methods to earn money.


Right after walking a few steps, Shi Feng was stopped by the male Warrior.


“Expert, wait a minute. Let's talk about this, okay? Isn't that just a 10 Copper deposit? Here, take. I believe that experts like you will not cheat me.” The male warrior smiled honestly, and firmly exchanged 10 Copper for Shi Feng.


“Seeing your appearance, I will give you a good location. Although this place was a bit far away, there was only one Green Gnome-type Level 0 mage. It has a low defense and a fast respawn rate. The chances of losing money are also greater. A Berserker would be great at killing there.” Shi Feng gave the Warrior a good grinding location after happily receiving ten Copper.


The male warrior was relieved when he realized how familiar Shi Feng was with wild monsters, even to the extent of knowing the amount of money dropped. He had never imagined that he would be so lucky to meet an expert in the God Region and not just any expert; shi Feng might even be a Beta Examiner. The male warrior became even more excited at the thought of this possibility.


“Brother Expert, did you know a location that provides skill books for Berserker? It is very difficult to fight monsters with just one skill.” The male warrior now favored Shi Feng more, even treating Shi Feng as his superior.


“It's okay if you want to know, but you will be charged 2 Silver,” Shi Feng smiled. Who would provide such valuable information in just a short conversation? Shi Feng would not do so unless there was money involved, of course.


The male soldier paled when he heard the price. Two Silver equals 200 Copper. Even an average Guild would not have that much money.


“Expert, let's add each other as friends. I'm the Lonely Snow. I'll contact you again after I save enough money.” The male warrior sent Shi Feng a friend request.


"All right." Shi Feng accepted Lonely Snow's request.


Now that Shi Feng had the money, he walked towards the fruit stall in the City Hall.


“Bos, what is the price of this Tomato?” Shi Feng asked as he raised the ripe red Tomato.


Fruits and Vegetables can help restore HP and MP players. Their taste is also quite good. The only drawback is the poor recovery rate. Under normal circumstances, players would not buy them at all, especially in periods where money becomes a big deal. Spending money to buy Fruits and Vegetables is just a wasteful act.


“Masing 2 Copper.”


“Give me ten of them.”


Shi Feng paid 20 Copper. He walked to the City Hall after receiving 10 Tomatoes.


“Hai newcomer, queue. Can't you see other people also queuing up?”


“The swordsman is there, what do you think you want to do? Do you know how many people are queuing behind?”


The players in the queue became furious and began to criticize when they saw Shi Feng cutting the line, walking straight towards the Mayor. They had long since killed Shi Feng, were it not for the fact that they could have been imprisoned for attacking other players within the city.


“Sorry, but I'm actually not here to receive a Quest. I'm just here to see it.” Shi Feng smiled at the players; he turned his head to look at the fat Mayor, Cross.


[Cross] (Elit, Friendly)


15 level


HP 2400/2400


parliamentarians 1500/1500


Not a single player could defeat him at this stage. That's impossible, even with the team.


Next, Shi Feng took out a ripe and red Tomato, biting at it.


“What is this guy doing?”


"Hell! He was actually eating a tomato! Each one costs 2 Copper! Extraordinary luxury!”


The other players were unable to understand what Shi Feng was trying to do. By coming to the City Hall to eat Tomatoes.. Did he try to show how rich he was?


In the midst of his Tomato, Shi Feng suddenly threw it into the face of Mayor Cross.


The tomato accurately landed on Cross's face, spreading a bright red liquid all over.


System: Cross's liking towards you has been reduced by 100 points.


Dissatisfied, Shi Feng took out another Tomato from his bag, throwing it at Cross.


"The hypocrites! Fats up! A boyfriend! You are not fit to be Mayor!


Shi Feng continued to curse while throwing Tomatoes, while Cross's fondness continued to decline. Cross's body became flushed red as tomato juice continued to flow into his body. Adding to his angry expression, it created a very funny sight.


However, no one in the City Hall laughed; it was very quiet. All players became agape and were astonished at Shi Fengs actions.


Only after twenty minutes since the opening of Gods Domain, there was a player who dared to attack NPCs and not just any NPCs; he attacked the leader of a city, the Beginner Area Boss!


This guy is crazy! Wasn't he afraid of being imprisoned until his death?


Does he no longer want to live in Red Leaf Town?


Even taking revenge on society should not be done in such a way!


Just when the other players expected the Guard to hold Shi Feng or the Mayor to kill Shi Feng angrily, none of this was actually the case.


None of the players knew that insulting an NPC was not considered an attack. Hence why neither the Guards nor the Cross had attacked Shi Feng. Shi Fengs actions would only make the NPC hate him so much and he could forget about receiving Quests from NPCs this entire lifetime.


The moment Shi Fengs last Tomato landed on Cross's face, Cross's fondness fell towards Hostile. The Cross' Level became a question mark and the yellow marker on it quickly turned deep red.


“Cursed insects! I'll send you to hell!”


The bright red cross roared loudly as he charged towards Shi Feng.
