BXBX NOVEL Chapter 59 59 Great Forest
"That\'s not funny, you guys shouldn\'t try it again" Alex sneered.
"We were just joking, so did you get the sword?" Max asked.
"Ohh, I got the sword" Alex smirked, "How much can you offer"
"Huh! but I thought...I don\'t have any money on me, I spent it all to buy an armor" Max spoke.
"I thought you wanted to buy the sword for Max, you have enough money, why do you need more?" Gabriel asked suspiciously.
"I wanted to give it to him for free, but I spent most of my coins when running so I need more"
"You lost your coins when running, you can\'t think of a better excuse, just give him the sword bro"
"You owe me," Alex said and opened his inventory, and handed the sword over to Max.
"Okay, we should head towards the task now, we are prepared," Gabriel said.
"Did you find spell books?" Alex asked.
"Yes, I already got fireball, so I found Mud trap and Dark bind" Gabriel replied.
"Are you guys sure we should go now, we haven\'t logged out in a while, maybe we should log out and log in after eating" Alex said.
"We won\'t die in real life don\'t worry, if it gets too bad, we would be logged out automatically," Max said.
"I know but that only happens if the player stayed in the game for too long, we should go, we need to complete the task so we can visit other cities"
"This world is too big to explore, there are three continents and we are in the first one, the Silver continent," Max said.
"So where do we find the leaves?"
"We can only find them at night, somewhere in the great forest, I should check the map," Alex said and opened his map.
At the bottom of the map, an icon was displayed there [Quests], Alex touched the icon and a mark was displayed on his map, the exact location where the moonlight plant can be found.
[Quest/Task]
[Retrieve leaves of the moonlight plant]
[Reward: 1000 blue coins for each leaf]
[Reward: Relationship with Matthew would increase]
[Failure: Banned from Melmond potion shop]
[Time limit: One week]
"I got the location, let\'s go, we need to move quickly so we can get there by nightfall"
The three of them walked through the streets and made their way outside of the city, Alex was still looking around to see if the guards were still keeping an eye on him.
The three of them finally made their way outside of the city, players were still trooping into the city as they made their way out and walked towards the large forest in front of them.
"So Alex, what skill did you pick?" Max asked.
"Skill...I didn\'t pick any skill, wait... I\'m way past level 10 I\'m supposed to be getting a skill at level 10" Alex said surprised.
"Wait...so you didn\'t get any notification about skills, you were supposed to be given three to pick from, is something wrong with the game" Max ponder.
"How would something be wrong with the game, it\'s the best game in the world, thousands of employees are hired to find bugs and eliminate them, I don\'t think they would have missed skills" Gabriel spoke.
\'Wait...I didn\'t actually reach level 10 on my own, I was granted a boss kill by that lady in the dungeon, maybe that\'s why\' Alex mumbled under his breath.
"Maybe you should check your status screen, and see if anything is wrong," Max said.

"Nothing is wrong with my stats" Alex spoke.
\'This is fucked up, that lady is the cause of all this, I also have a strange mark on my chest that comes and goes at will, maybe my account has been hacked, is that even possible\'
\'A friend list...I totally forgot about this, Huntress added me to her friend list, I should check it out\' Alex smiled as he clicked on the icon.
[Friend list]
1. Huntress [Message]
[Add Friends]
Alex tapped on the message icon and a blinking line appeared and everything faded away.
\'I don\'t see a keyboard, how am I supposed to message her, maybe it\'s a voice note\'
"Hi..." Alex spoke in the tiniest voice he could muster, the word \'hi\' appeared on the blinking line and another icon was displayed [Send], Alex tapped on it and the message was sent immediately.
\'She didn\'t reply, maybe she\'s offline\'
"Alex... Alex are you there" Gabriel waved his hands in front of Alex.
"What\'s wrong?" Alex asked, his mind not focused on them.
"We are approaching the forest, so you might wanna be on your toes, you know PvP is now allowed," Gabriel said.
"Ohh that\'s right, Thai forest is mainly inhibited by newbies, so we should hunt some of them," Alex said.
"We can\'t just go looking for trouble, we should stick to the goal, then if anyone gets in our way then we can attack them," Max said.
"Even if we kill them, we won\'t be able to get any decent item from them, and we should stick to killing players level 5 or above," Max said.
"Why, I\'ll kill anyone lower than me, we are here to be among the top ten, when the game was launched PvP wasn\'t allowed, but now imagine how the top players would feel now, they would be able to kill anyone without restrictions" Gabriel explained.
Alex already wore his cloak and his mask, both of his daggers in his hands, as they walked towards the forest. Both of them looked at Alex and Max immediately brought out his silver sword.
"Since you guys prefer killing then we\'ll kill anyone we see" Max mumbled.
