When Sword Saint Ashina opened her eyes, she saw her three companions dozing off in the swaying carriage.

This was how players appeared when they were offline. Although Maxim did not particularly favor the female players, the other little players had voluntarily given them a carriage to use exclusively.

“Ah! It’s different now!”

After hooking up with Murphy last night, Sword Saint Ashina displayed the completion of the Black Iron Trial. She then entered a forced offline state, with a note in the game helmet saying “test personnel physical projection reconstruction,” which probably meant updating her character information.

She looked down at the character interface displayed on her Computation Bead, and it was indeed very different from before:

Black Iron Body Strength Stage Summary:

Congratulations, Test Personnel!

You have finally transcended the Mortal realm and stepped into the extraordinary realm, and your potential has been unlocked and will be discovered and released through subsequent training and battles.

But you must understand that the Black Iron Body is a very special strength stage.

In this stage, you must carefully choose and confirm the path of power you wish to walk in the future, and undergo specialized training according to your profession and skill traits to form a combat style most suitable for yourself.

The development team’s recommendation for Black Iron Body test personnel is:

In this stage, you may appropriately slow down your leveling speed and instead focus more effort on honing your combat skills. Please think deeply about what kind of person you want to become in this otherworld and how you should leave your own legend.

Of course, this is merely a suggestion!

In this completely free world, you can spend your second life as you wish! Congratulations, your future is no longer bound.】

“Wow, that’s so formal! This just makes me like you guys even more, what should I do? Should I ask my dad to spend some money and acquire your company?”

Seeing her renewed character attributes and the message from the development team, Sword Saint Ashina smiled happily in the carriage, feeling like she could now punch a cow to death with her 12 attribute points increase and 6 free attribute points to allocate!

This was no illusion.

But before Sword Saint Ashina could break free from the joy and immense sense of achievement of leveling up and obtaining the 【Server First!】 glorious achievement, she noticed a new quest quietly existing in her quest log.

Two new quests personally given by Murphy!

【Hidden Quest ‘Murphy’s Warrior’ has been triggered!

Quest Description: Murphy is a rather fastidious vampire. Beneath his benevolent exterior lies a soul that pursues perfection.

He favors and trusts his otherworld warriors, yet he has been secretly observing them all along. He only allows himself to choose the most promising and unique ones from among the otherworldly spirits to become his personal warriors.

And now!

You!

A resilient soul from another world, you should feel honored, for Murphy has preliminarily acknowledged you and bestowed upon you the title of ‘Reserve Warrior’. However, to truly become Murphy’s warrior, you still have a long way to go.

Quest Objective: Enhance your image and importance in Murphy’s eyes as much as possible, and await the triggering of the next phase of the quest.

Quest Reward: Special title “Murphy’s Warrior”.

Note!

There are only twelve of these titles in 《Reality Realm》, and you now hold one of them.】

“Hooray!”

Sword Saint Ashina jumped up excitedly in the carriage, waving her arms and shouting maniacally to herself:

“Murphy! I swear to you! Finally, someone has discovered my great talent and can reasonably use it. Even though it’s an NPC who discovered my uniqueness, it doesn’t matter. I knew this game was my destined game.

Ah, Dad and Mom, I’ve found a game worthy of dedicating my life to.”

“What are you raving about?”

Just as she was shouting and raving, putting on a behavioral art performance, the dozing Fatal Orchid Huahua in the carriage suddenly opened her eyes. She reached out and pressed Sword Saint Ashina’s head, pinching her chubby cheeks hard, and then scolded loudly:

“Don’t do that thing you did last night again! Did you hear me? Seeing you suddenly disconnect scared me to death, so I had to call your parents from the South Pole to ask if you were alright. Do you know how expensive satellite calls are?

It charges by the second, you little brat. I’m not a real rich third-generation like you.

But I heard from your mother that you cried the whole night last night, and she couldn’t console you no matter what. What happened?

Were you scared?”

“Hehe, no.”

Sword Saint Ashina was quite fond of Fatal Orchid. After all, in her miserable life, it was rare to have a world-traveling good friend occasionally visit and tell her about the outside world and other people’s great adventures, which was always wonderful.

She allowed Fatal Orchid to hug her petite body and softly told her friend:

“It’s just that you can imagine, in your dull life, one day a ray of light suddenly shines through. When you’ve been judged to have to live the rest of your life on a tube and respirator, you’re suddenly given the opportunity to live freely.

I wasn’t scared.

I was just too happy.

Although my parents don’t understand what I’m doing, they don’t need to worry about me.”

“You still have the nerve to say that!”

Fatal Orchid glared and scolded:

“Who left a suicide note two years ago? That time, you almost scared everyone to death.”

“Well, I was ignorant back then. That’s just how a disabled girl who read too much melancholic youth literature would be.”

Sword Saint Ashina rubbed against Fatal Orchid’s chest playfully, then showed off her new panel and hidden quests to her, as well as the second quest given by Murphy.

However, this was not a hidden quest, but more like a “reward quest”.

【Quest ‘Reward for Insane Skill’ has been triggered!

Quest Description: After witnessing your brilliant performance in the Black Iron Trial, Murphy was deeply impressed. However, he believes that a gunner without their own unique firearm will find it difficult to truly reach higher realms. Thus, he has decided to give you a clue to find a true hunting masterpiece for yourself.

It is said that Crimson Regent Baroness Miriam has recently received an extraordinary ‘gift’. Perhaps you could pay her a visit?

Quest Objective: Visit the Baroness of Morland and be allowed to view her ‘Iron Warden’.

Quest Reward: Acquire a special weapon blueprint.】

“A special weapon, huh? Sounds awesome! Didn’t the Black Iron Trial quest say there would be an additional reward for completing the elite challenge? I think this must be it! This is the reward quest from the development team for all test personnel who solo passed the elite trial!

After all, a warrior without a good weapon cannot be worthy of the warrior’s name!”

Sword Saint Ashina could not share this quest, but that did not prevent her from discussing the quest details with Fatal Orchid. The great traveler did not disappoint and quickly pointed out the “pitfall” in this quest.

“Since it’s a gift Baroness Miriam received from a friend, it’s definitely not something that just anyone can be allowed to view.”

Fatal Orchid shook her head, pouring cold water on the excited Sword Saint Ashina, saying:

“This means that to complete this quest, you’ll have to raise Baroness Miriam’s personal reputation to friendly or above. Although the affinity system has never been officially confirmed, players are all convinced that this game has this mechanism.

Moreover, your personal experience seems to have solved a long-standing puzzle on the forum.

That is, while the affinity of other NPCs can be raised through special means, Murphy’s affinity system has always been elusive.

Now it seems that the main storyline NPCs are indeed different! To gain his favor, you have to demonstrate your uniqueness and bravery before him. And this damn affinity system actually has a limited number of slots.

Only twelve warrior slots. Tsk tsk, what a fastidious handsome man!”

The great traveler squinted her eyes, apparently having some other little thoughts in her mind. After a few seconds, she said in a low voice to Sword Saint Ashina:

“Keep this information confidential, okay? Murphy is obviously a sensitive character who doesn’t like being talked about. If you casually reveal his criteria for selecting warriors, it will definitely lead to a decrease in your favor with him.”

“Ah? Is there such a saying?”

Sword Saint Ashina widened her eyes and asked:

“What about if I say it on the forum?”

“No way!”

Fatal Orchid shook her head and said softly:

“You know those guys like Meow King, right? Their luck in the game has reached an unbelievable level of bad. Whenever there are luck-related quests or rewards, they will definitely run into trouble.

I originally thought it was just their bad luck.

But a few days ago, when I was bored and browsing old posts on the forum, I suddenly realized that Murphy and Tris’ idle chatter was initially spread by them.

Emmm, to be honest, judging by the intelligence level of the NPCs in this game, I don’t think this is a coincidence.

Don’t forget, as a main storyline NPC, Murphy has a portion of GM privileges. Veteran players have said they’ve personally witnessed Murphy kicking Meow King offline.

So if I have to say it…

I feel that this unique NPC Murphy might sometimes be ‘role-played’ in real-time by the development team, using a method that doesn’t affect the players’ gaming experience to subtly adjust the direction of the storyline. And Meow King and his friends’ misfortune lies in badmouthing behind Murphy’s back and being ‘noted’ by the development team.

But I don’t have any evidence.”

“Oh, okay.”

Sword Saint Ashina nodded, looking a bit worried as she said:

“But I haven’t raised Baroness Miriam’s affinity at all since I started the game. It would take forever to start from scratch and raise it high enough. Wait! I just had an idea.”

She looked up at Fatal Orchid and said:

“What if a player who already has affinity visits the baroness, and then I go along as a follower or friend? He could make the request to view the gift.”

“That’s theoretically possible!”

Fatal Orchid nodded and said:

“But you may not be able to find a player willing to take the adventure with you. Actively making requests to NPCs will definitely lower affinity, let alone the affinity of an important NPC like Regent Miriam.”

“What about other NPCs then?”

Sword Saint Ashina gestured and said:

“If an NPC brings me in, there wouldn’t be that problem, right?”

“Huh?”

Fatal Orchid looked at the little Sword Saint Ashina holding her Computation Bead in surprise and asked doubtfully:

“So, what’s your plan?”

“Of course, to find the charming and gentle Murphy!”

The little dwarf laughed and said:

“Apart from patrolling his territory, he basically doesn’t do any real work. He has plenty of time to spare. As his reserve warrior, this small request shouldn’t be enough for him to remove me, right? You also said his affinity algorithm is different from other NPCs.

I’ve already obtained the qualification, so I should be entitled to preferential treatment, right?”

“Yeah, that’s feasible!”

Fatal Orchid nodded, glancing at the smug Sword Saint Ashina, and said:

“You really are a clever little devil.”

——

The news of Sword Saint Ashina passing the Black Iron Trial last night was like a bomb that exploded. After a few hours of fermentation, it had spread like wildfire on the forum, blowing almost all the little players out.

There were constant posts on the forum asking how she did it. The patient Lumina eventually just opened a dedicated thread and described the entire process.

At this moment, the faraway Onboard Joy Stick, who was in the sewers of the Crimson Citadel deploying troops and preparing for a “raid battle” against a group of zombies, let out a yawn. He opened the forum in-game and read the textual descriptions in the post.

He was obviously contemplating how to approach his own trial.

“Does a 100% realistic game require realistic thinking as well?”

Stick squinted his eyes, feeling like he had grasped a clue.

However, he became so deeply absorbed in his thoughts that he forgot to command the three newbies charging too fast to retreat in time. A gap appeared in their formation, and three zombies rushed in, causing a chaotic melee that nearly resulted in serious casualties for the team.

“Damn it! What are you afraid of? Use your spears and push them out! Gunners, prepare to open fire!”

Stick jumped up and shouted, quickly restoring order to the messy formation.

But his mind was no longer on the battlefield before him. Stick took a hand-drawn sewer map from his side, stroked his chin in thought for several minutes, and said to his comrades:

“We’ll keep grinding for another 30 minutes, and then a few of us will go set some traps with me!”

“Huh? Stick, what’s the point of setting traps?”

Tiger Leopard Rider asked curiously. Stick narrowed his eyes and said:

“To lure an elite zombie over. I’m going to pass the Black Iron Trial tonight! I’m also planning to develop a combat strategy that everyone can use. We’re real men, we can’t let a little girl outdo us, right?”

At the same time, in the outskirts of the city sewers, the fierce male warriors accompanying Master Mao for leveling were also discussing last night’s events.

Sword Saint Ashina’s server-wide achievement had fired up the fierce men’s hot blood, making them wish they could capture a zombie right now and practice.

“For a girl to actually accomplish the feat of solo challenging a Black Iron elite… tsk, how embarrassing!”

North Forest Dog’s Paddle slapped his face and mocked himself with a prolonged tone, leaving the other three brothers speechless. However, the nearby resting Master Mao grinned, picked up his water pouch and took a sip, then stood up with his greatsword and said:

“What’s the point of constantly comparing yourself to others? You should compare yourself to yourself! This game’s parrying and dodging is so realistic. If you practice your techniques, forget just soloing an elite, you could do it without taking any damage.”

“Huh? I believe you could beat an elite, Master Mao, but unscathed? Tsk, that’s too exaggerated.”

“Why? Don’t believe me? Hey, give me a few more days to get the hang of this game, and then let me open your eyes. But the Blood Vulture Sword Arts definitely won’t work, they have plenty of attack power but lack agility, which is an inherent weakness of that sword style.

You need to learn a balanced set of offensive and defensive skills. First, tell me how to raise affinity in this game?

When I was sparring with Lord Maxim before, I saw him use a sword art that allowed unscathed dodging. I plan to learn it, and then I should be able to solo an elite.”

“Achoo!”

At that moment, Maxim, who was escorting the caravan departing from Bataxin City, suddenly sneezed without warning, causing one of the Descendants beside him to give him an odd look and say:

“My lord, what’s wrong? Are you injured?”

“No.”

The fully armed Maxim, riding a warhorse, waved his hand and said:

“It’s just a very strange feeling, like I’m being watched by something really troublesome.”
