Chapter 422: Chapter 268: The Social Bandits of Phoenix City_2

With no other options, Mu You decided to target the other residents in Phoenix City.

Now it was not even six o’clock, Sunlight Elves wouldn’t be out on the streets after dark, while it was not completely dark yet, he hurriedly navigated his character through the city, constantly exploring and made full use of his social banditry talent, casually asking anyone he saw, ’Do you need any help?’

This forced quests hunting was quite draining, and his energy for the day was quickly depleted by seven o’clock. However, this was a necessary expenditure. Exploring new maps as soon as they were unlocked was customary, once all paths were explored, future exploration would be cost-free.

Out of energy, Mu You immediately teleported back to the old lady’s place, had a meal, refilled his energy, and then returned to continue exploring.

Under such relentless exploration, he finally found two quests.

[Street Cleaning: The magical broom in the southern part of the city has been damaged, some garbage has piled up on the street, and you are required to go help clean up. You will earn 10 reputation points for each street cleaned.]

[Construction Assistance: Due to certain reasons, the construction of a building is a day behind schedule, the construction team leader who found out you can use the Levitation Technique hopes you can help use magic to place construction materials in their appropriate places according to the blueprint. Completion Reward: 50 reputation points.]

After all the effort expended to find these quests, he ended up with street cleaning and bricklaying tasks.

Mu You didn’t discriminate against such purely physical labor tasks, but were the labors too cheap? Only a few dozen reputation points for a whole night’s work?

Fortunately, neither of these two quests required energy.

Mu You summoned a Wooden Clone and several Tree-men to go and clean the streets, while he and the clone helped with the levitation, doubling the efficiency. However, the text prompt still indicated that it would take more than two hours to finish moving everything.

"Such quests are time-consuming, unstable, and the rewards are little... I really need to find a long-term job..." Mu You thought to himself. If he really wanted to effectively gain reputation, he should find a job just like he did with the Forest Elves: get the status of an internal member of a group like the Farstrider, then complete regular tasks every day.

"Huh, I got a quest!"

While he was thinking, Little Ya suddenly spoke in surprise.

The other three, like Mu You, all logged into the game after their busy day, trying to find quests in Phoenix City.

Mu You had already become a permanent resident, but the other three still had temporary passes, and could be thrown out at any time. They needed to earn positive reputation first.

"What kind of quest did you find?" Mu You quickly asked.

"A self-styled ’Dragonhawk Trainer’ approached me and said they needed a keeper at the Dragonhawk training grounds to comb the Dragonhawk’s feathers at a fixed time every day, earning 1 reputation point for each. You can get up to 100 reputation points a day." Explained Little Ya.

"That’s great! Is there still an open spot?"

Upon hearing this, Mu You was envious. He needed this kind of long-term job; it was much better than his bricklaying and street cleaning.

"No more..."

"I see." Mu You did not hold out much hope. It was only normal for a job involving animals to find Little Ya, as no one else boasted her unique talent.

"I got it, I think I’ve found a job too!" At this point, Lin Hai excitedly spoke from the side.

"You too? What kind of job?" Mu You asked, surprised.

"A cute Elf Sister from the Battlefield Emergency Aid Team saw that I am a nurse, asked me if I knew any healing or banishing spells. When I said yes, she invited me to join their medical corps to heal the Elf Warriors injured on the battlefield each day." Lin Hai said.

"Is there still an open spot?"

"I will check... uh, no more."

"..."

Mu You admitted to feeling sour, why was it that everyone else easily found a steady job, while he was still wandering the streets.

"How about Little Snow? Have you found a job?" Mu You turned to Lin Xue, hoping to find someone who was in the same predicament as he was.

Little Snow’s answer surprised him even more: "I’ve left Phoenix City..."

"Oh? Why?"

"When I came back earlier, my scythe threw a quest at me called ’Covenant of the Reaper’s Acolyte’, which seemed to be an uncompleted quest from my grandmother’s youth, now passed on to me. It wants me to seek some kind of inheritance near the underground Dark City." Little Snow said.

"Dark City, huh..."

Mu You was taken aback, he did also have a quest in his Elf Horn that required him to go to Dark City, but it hadn’t yet been triggered.

"Do you need us to go with you?" Mu You asked her.

"No need. It’s a solo quest. I can only accomplish it alone..." Little Snow said.

"Alright then..."

Mu You felt helpless, Little Snow had left too, leaving him the only vagabond behind...

The four of them did their own things until around eight in the evening, when they all bid farewell and left.

Mu You finished the two quests and received 90 reputation points. After that, he steered his character to enter the Arcane Hall and spent eight hundred reputation points to learn ’Multitasking’.

[Multitasking is in progress, estimated to be completed in 8 hours...]

Eight hours, which meant it wouldn’t be done until tomorrow morning.

Mu You didn’t rest then but returned to the room to start making cards.

He had stored quite a bit of magic from last week, and currently, there were three magics needed to be made into Black Magic: Spike Serpent Guard, Electric Arc Sword, and Summon Tree-men.

Mu You started the conversion from Summon Tree-men.

It took over ten hours to create the card.

He was busy up until seven o’clock the next morning before he managed to complete the conversion.
