"What's going on? Village Chief No. 88 has a hidden profession?"
The president of the Heavenly Revelation Dynasty was extremely frustrated. He had just spent 25 million to acquire a hidden profession from the village chief.
Before he could even savor it, the first person to transfer professions appeared, and it was the disciple of Village Chief No. 88. Wasn't this clearly setting him up for failure?
"That Dou Youyou is indeed the village chief's disciple. Players from our No. 88新手村 all know her!"
The Heavenly Revelation Dynasty president stated, "Approach that Dou Youyou and recruit her into our guild at all costs!"
"Yes, sir!"
The other two guilds had similar intentions; they had already set their sights on Dou Youyou.
Dou Junwan was stunned when she saw the announcement. What incredible luck had her sister stumbled upon these past two days to encounter such good fortune one after another?
This time, it was even more astounding—she had directly transferred to a hidden profession. As her elder sister, how was she supposed to manage from now on?
They had agreed that the sister would lead the way, but now the younger sister had already soared into the sky.
"Youyou, don't you care about my reputation at all?"
Ji Liu watched the system prompts thoughtfully. In his eyes, Youyou was already within his grasp. He was now genuinely curious about what other treasures this village chief possessed.
After an unknown period, Zhang Pingfan actually fell asleep in the game.
Dou Youyou gently nudged Zhang Pingfan.
"Master, I'm back."
However, Zhang Pingfan showed no reaction. After shaking him a few times, he still didn't respond.
While you were here sleeping comfortably, I was exhausted leveling up.
Dou Youyou leaned down, her mouth close to Zhang Pingfan's ear.
"Master!!! I'm back!!!"
The deafening shout caused Zhang Pingfan to jolt upright.
"Damn it, Dou Youyou, do you want to die!"
Dou Youyou complained indignantly, "I worked so hard leveling up, and you were sleeping comfortably here. Hmph!"
Zhang Pingfan didn't indulge her at all.
He directly swatted her away.
"You brat, are you the master, or am I? You scared me to death!"
After speaking, Zhang Pingfan leaned back into his lounge chair.
"Come here and give your master a massage!"
Dou Youyou said angrily, "It hurts! I won't give you a massage!"
Zhang Pingfan said, "Xiao Hei, strip her profession!"
Black Emperor nodded and said, "Your subordinate obeys!"
Dou Youyou quickly retreated, hugging her arms across her chest, and said pitifully, "Master, you can't do this!"
Zhang Pingfan sneered, "You're still too young to contend with me. Hurry up and come over. You've received such great benefits, and you haven't come to thank me!"
Dou Youyou stuck out her tongue and said, "Hee hee, you only know how to bully me."
She then reluctantly walked behind Zhang Pingfan and grudgingly gave him a massage.
Zhang Pingfan said with enjoyment, "That's more like it. How is this profession?"
Dou Youyou said proudly, "Of course, it's very powerful. Master Hei's skills are amazing. Don't you have anything to teach me?"
"Uh..." Zhang Pingfan was stunned.
Do you want to learn how to move bricks more efficiently? Of course, Zhang Pingfan wouldn't say this out loud.
Seeing Zhang Pingfan remain silent, Dou Youyou increased the pressure of her massage.
"I knew it, Master doesn't want to teach me. Master Hei is so much better; he's willing to teach me everything!"
Zhang Pingfan said with a dark expression, "Then learn well from Xiao Hei. All the skills here are super powerful, and you're not qualified yet. Understand!"
"Oh, I see."
However, Dou Youyou's expression suggested, I don't believe you at all; you're trying to trick a child.
"Level ten already?"
Dou Youyou nodded, "Yes, Master Hei is too amazing. I thought it would take at least until tomorrow to reach level ten, but I didn't expect it to be tonight."
"Master, I'm a bit reluctant to leave you and Master Hei."
Zhang Pingfan sighed. There was nothing he could do; after players reached level ten, they had to go to the main city to level up further. Otherwise, they would remain at level ten in the新手村.
"You can also stay here forever."
Unexpectedly, Dou Youyou immediately rejected the idea.
"No, wouldn't that mean I'm wasting Master Hei's Dark Mage profession!"
"...Then why are you sighing? Hurry up and get lost!"
"Hee hee, before I leave, don't you, Master, have to give me something good? Like weapons or equipment, or at the very least, some defensive items, or skills."
Zhang Pingfan's face darkened.
"Are you asking for a breakup fee? Get lost, there's nothing."
Dou Youyou pouted and said, "Stingy master, hmph!"
Zhang Pingfan looked at his inventory. Besides the Hurricane Wolf with a missing leg, there was nothing truly noteworthy.
"Take this Hurricane Wolf!"
Dou Youyou, who had just looked dejected, instantly beamed with avarice.
"Master, you're the best!"
"Get lost, go level up!"
"Hee hee, I know, I know!"
Zhang Pingfan felt a pang of loss. With Dou Youyou gone, it meant he would eventually be the only one left here. Alas.
[Ding! System Prompt: As player Dou Youyou successfully reached level ten, a quest has been triggered to upgrade the village. The current village level is 1, and it will be upgraded to level 2. The highest level of wild monsters will be 20.]
[Ding! System Prompt: No. 88新手村 has been successfully connected to the outside world. Players who leave this新手村 can freely return. Players from other新手村 cannot enter this新手村! The prerequisite is to upgrade to a level two village!]
[Ding! System Prompt: Please complete the village upgrade quest as soon as possible. The quest has a time limit of one day. Failure to complete the quest will result in the system reclaiming it!]
Zhang Pingfan's mouth hung open. He hadn't expected his quest to be to upgrade the village.
As long as the village upgrade was successful, players from this新手村 could return.
This meant Dou Youyou could return to the新手村, or rather, as long as the village was upgraded, Dou Youyou could continue to stay in the新手村 because the surrounding wild monster levels had also increased to 20.
However, would this situation not lead to other uncertain factors?
For example, if a new player was just born in No. 88新手村 and offended someone, wouldn't they be unable to even leave the新手村?
"System miss, aren't there some bugs in this?"
[Ding! Once the新手村 construction is completed, the issues you are concerned about will be thoroughly resolved. For now, please upgrade the新手村 as soon as possible!]
With the system's assurance, Zhang Pingfan felt relieved.
Zhang Pingfan opened his quest log and, sure enough, a series of new quests had appeared.
Zhang Pingfan patted himself on the back.
"Finally, there's work to be done. Youyou probably won't be able to leave!"
"System miss, make an announcement, telling players in the新手村 to come here to accept quests. I need to build the village!"
[Ding! No problem!]
[Ding! System Prompt: No. 88新手村 is undergoing expansion. Please players return to the新手村 square. The village chief has new quests to distribute!]
"Damn, the新手村 is expanding? The village chief is giving out quests!"
"What are you idiots standing around for? Hurry back, the village chief is giving out quests!"
