After MO Guanji ran off into the distance, Lu Xun nonchalantly climbed onto the carriage.

Ji Li and Murong Yan didn’t ask further questions, assuming that the young elder, Lu Xun, had just intervened to save someone in need.

Lu Xun didn’t provide any details, choosing to close his eyes and restore his energy in the carriage.

He had not mentioned going into town, and so naturally, Murong Yan and Ji Li didn’t insist on it.

Lu Xun didn’t want to go into town for the time being; he was too conspicuous.

His NPC template information displayed a changed name color—purple. So, if it was purple on his template, then the players would surely see it as purple, too.

In the early stages of the game, players would be as enthralled as dogs chasing tails at the sight of a yellow-named NPC. Thus, a purple-named NPC like him could cause quite a stir even in the later stages of the game!

It couldn’t be helped. The color of the name reflected one’s status. Despite Lu Xun’s low level, his status was high. Shen Yan was a purple-name NPC, so how could Lu Xun, acting as Shen Yan’s young elder, be of the blue or yellow name?

At this moment, Lu Xun was once again studying some of his features.

After he assigned a task to MO Guanji, he could check the progress of the task. At the same time, the ten silver taels in his storage ring had been locked.

“Ten silver taels, is that a bit too much?” Lu Xun pondered.

He suddenly understood why Shen Yan was so frugal. The cost of even the most basic necessities can be surprising if not personally experienced.

Speaking of which, he now had a daily quota of 2000 experience points, which was quite substantial in the early stages of the game.

However, this was only enough to educate a small number of players.

If he wanted a large group of players to work hard for him, this amount of experience points would not suffice.

“I need to level up even more. The higher the level, the more experience points I can benefit from.” Lu Xun thought to himself.

At the same time, he found that he had unlocked two more NPC functions after interacting with MO Guanji. These functions were favorability adjustment and the teaching of cultivation methods or skills.

“I could test the ability to adjust favorability later, but teaching cultivation methods and skills is a bit tricky,” Lu Xun deliberated with his eyes closed.

After all, his current knowledge of cultivation methods and skills was limited and quite advanced. Even the simplest “Qi Consumption Technique” was a valuable asset in the early stages of the game.

The main issue was that the “Qi Consumption Technique” was a divine skill exclusive to the Demon Sect, and not all players were qualified to join such a prestigious sect.

All players aspired to join the four major righteous sects or the three Demon Sects. However, most of them would only be capable of joining middle-tier or small sects.

For Lu Xun at this moment, players were like affordable vegetables at a street vendor, free for him to pick and choose.

“I almost forgot, didn’t I learn a skill named ‘Eagle’s Claw’? ” Lu Xun remembered the agile set of techniques he had learned from an ancient book discovered on a corpse before he headed to the Demon Sect.

At the beginning of the game, this technique could be taught to players freely. This gray-level technique did not require experience points to learn, making it a perfect choice.

But the thought of a bunch of players unknowingly curling their fingers as if aiming mid-air was an eyesore.

“Whatever, as long as I find it aesthetically pleasing, it doesn’t matter to me,” Lu Xun quickly convinced himself.

He looked outside the carriage and pondered, “I wonder what kind of guinea pig MO Guanji will find for me this time.”

On the other hand, guided by the map, MO Guanji rushed into Tong County at top speed.

Other players should have already entered Tong County to complete beginner tasks.

Tong County was modest in size. Since he arrived late, finding other players was more challenging. After all, there were only a few players in the closed beta test.

Strolling down the bluestone streets of Tong County, he couldn’t help but admire the precision of the game’s design in “Heavenly Dust.”

“This game truly sets a new standard!” MO Guanji felt as if he had traveled back in time.

Strolling around, the first players he met happened to be Zhuo Houyi and Li Wanji.

Zhuo Houyi, full of enthusiasm, was moving goods for a peddler—his first beginner task.

On the other hand, Li Wanji, who had designed his avatar to resemble a muscular doll, sat across in a tavern buffing tables.

The burly man seemed to know a thing or two about folk opera, swaying his orchid fingers as he skillfully spun the cloth on his hand.

MO Guanji looked at him, associated him with the term “busy bee,” and promptly avoided Li Wanji, heading toward Zhuo Houyi who had left a pleasant impression during their initial encounter.

Clearly, the name Zhuo Houyi was of a real man!

Besides, this person was warm and outgoing, and a major guild member at that. Perhaps progress would be accelerated if they banded together for the task!

Right, Zhuo Houyi was certainly the best choice!

He quickly reached Zhuo Houyi’s side and began helping him move the goods.

Zhuo Houyi paused, then warmly reminded him, “Brother, I’ve already taken this task. There are experience points and silver coins for picking it up. I appreciate your help, but you won’t get anything out of it.”

See, what a great person he was! He even thought for others from their perspective, not showing off any major guild attitude. This was undoubtedly the perfect partner!

That’s how friendship grows.

The bonds between men sometimes grow under the most inexplicable circumstances.

“The thing is, I’ve received a task that requires me to bring another helper. I thought I might as well help you finish this task quickly and then check if you’d like to head over there with me,” MO Guanji explained.

Upon hearing this, Zhuo Houyi immediately showed interest.

“Sure, brother! Your task is clearly a series of related tasks! At our beginner’s stage. such tasks are valuable because thev guarantee continuous exDerience gains. Tell me, what’s the task reward?” Zhuo Houyi asked with a hearty laugh.

“Ten silver taels,” MO Guanji replied honestly.

“Nice! Ten silver taels is a handsome sum. Nice work on the part of that NPC!”

Zhuo Houyi grew excited and went on to ask, “And how many experience points?”

“Ah? No…there are no experience points,” MO Guanji said.

“Brother, based on my years of gaming experience, some games and NPCs can be tricky. Some related tasks are long and offer minimal early-stage rewards, with substantial rewards only at the very end. Since your task doesn’t offer experience points, I suspect it belongs to this category,” Zhuo Houyi replied, slightly frowning.

He patted MO Guanji’s shoulder, adding, “These tasks are fine to take under normal circumstances, but we are in a closed beta test. We should focus on high-efficiency attempts to gather useful information. Taking on these related tasks doesn’t seem like the best choice.”

As MO Guanji listened to Zhuo Houyi’s patient explanation, he became even more convinced of Zhuo Houyi’s reliability. Thus, he decided to play his trump card: “But the person who issued the task…his name is of the purple color.”

“Regardless of the name’s col… wait! What did you say the color was!?” Zhuo

Houyi blurted out in surprise.

If he had heard correctly, MO Guanji had just said “purple?”

Purple—a color that could make even the most foolish player kneel in admiration.
