The God's Games

Chapter 174: What Do You Say? (Part 3)

Lee Bang-myung nodded his head in understanding.

As the white mist cleared, he found himself outside Ulon City.

The city was built and designed by the players and it already had a touch of modern style, which impressed Lee Bang-myung so much that he let out a surprised sound.

A guard at the gate lifted his eyes to look at him and asked, "What's your name, and where are you from?"

Lee Bang-myung checked the system notification, which provided him with his character's name and background.

After telling the guard, he was allowed to enter the city.

Lee Bang-myung knew these were other NPCs in the game.

He observed for a while and was amazed by how intelligent they seemed.

He wondered how they were made to function so smoothly.

As he walked further away, he could still hear the guard muttering, "Another adventurer, more and more people are coming to Ulon City."

His companion replied, "Isn't it good to have more people? It increases our chances of successfully resisting the demon race's attack."

Gradually, he couldn't hear the guards anymore, but the city became even livelier.

There were many people who were obviously players, crouching together doing who-knows-what, while the other NPCs were working very orderly.

And he became one of them.

Of course, Lee Bang-myung was different.

He didn't have a system to give him quest functions, so he didn't have any tasks to do and could wander around freely, which fit his current job requirements perfectly.

What Lee Bang-myung didn't know was that his aimless wandering made him stand out to players.

They saw him and thought he might be an NPC with a quest, so they rushed over to ask Lee Bang-myung.

"Excuse me, do you need any help?"

Lee Bang-myung was surprised and didn't immediately understand why the players were surrounding him.

But he quickly realized that since he was an NPC, the players must be looking for a quest.

However, Lee Bang-myung was a fake NPC.

He was about to tell them that he had no quests to give, but then the system notified him that he could choose to give quests to the players.

Lee Bang-myung who is interested, checked it out and found out that he could only give the lowest level quests with minimal rewards.

The players surrounded the NPC and saw him deep in thought.

They whispered among themselves, wondering what was going on, until they soon heard the quest prompt.

[ Quest Objective: Act as a Guide ]

[ Quest Details: Tom the Adventurer has just arrived in Ulon City and is not very familiar with it. He wants someone to show him around and get to know the sights of Ulon City. ]

[ Quest Difficulty: Easy ]

[ Quest Reward: Experience Points +1,000 ]

The players looked at the quest details and then at the reward, showing a slightly annoyed expression.

The reward for this quest wasn't much, but that wasn't a big deal for the players. For them, any amount of experience points was very valuable and they wanted to complete all available quests.

The only problem was that this was a single-player quest, meaning not everyone could take it.

They had to make a choice.

Guided by the players, Lee Bang-myung leisurely explored the entire city and got a good understanding about the place.

The game was approaching a critical time, with the demon army about to arrive.

So many adventurers and knight soldiers were here for one reason: to fight against the demons.

As an adventurer, Lee Bang-myung had the same goal, which meant he would also be heading to the battlefield.

However, Lee Bang-myung had no idea what special abilities his current identity might have.

After saying goodbye to the players, Lee Bang-myung wandered around and noticed he seemed to be watched.

He looked around but didn't see anyone.

Looking down at a corner, he saw a white, fluffy figure.

Seeing the familiar figure, Lee Bang-myung blurted out, "Snowball?"

After saying this, he suddenly regretted it.

Snowball's name was only known to the people who watch Master PungPong's live streaming, but Lee Bang-myung shouldn't have known that name.

Sure enough, when Snowball heard its name, it became alert.

It had already been watching Lee Bang-myung to see if he was acting strangely, and now it thought he was even more unusual.

Snowball bared its teeth at Lee Bang-myung.

At that moment, a young man walked out from behind Snowball and gently patted Snowball's head to calm it down.

The newcomer was Hanjun.

Seeing Lee Bang-myung, he understood why Snowball was so wary.

He whispered to Snowball, "Don't worry, this person is okay."

Snowball then obediently sat by Hanjun's side, behaving quite differently from before.

Lee Bang-myung awkwardly smiled and greeted Hanjun, "Hello…"

Hanjun nodded back and said, "Don't worry, Snowball doesn't bite people without reason."

Lee Bang-myung thought to himself that he had seen Snowball's true power and knew it wasn't as simple as Hanjun made it sound, but he still forced a smile.

Meanwhile, in Lindblum City, both Viscount Hereford and Saradin received news from Ulon City.

Viscount Hereford shook his body while eating grapes as he said, "Isn't this great? With them holding the front line, we're safer. You don't even need to act, Sir Saradin."

He sighed, "I don't know why so many people are rushing to Ulon City. Are they just going to their deaths?"

Adventurers are just people with outstanding combat skills.

How can they resist the demon army?

But as long as they're blocking the way in front of Lindblum City, Viscount Hereford was quite willing to let these doomed adventurers through.

What he didn't know was that the so-called guardian in his heart had unconsciously changed his mind.

Saradin had been silent for a long time without responding to Viscount Hereford.

When he finally heard Viscount Hereford's question, he absentmindedly replied, "In that case, I can go to Ulon City with peace of mind."

Viscount Hereford was momentarily stunned.

He crushed the grape in his hand and widened his eyes, asking, "What did you say?"
