Chapter 104
Qin Han pondered silently upon hearing this: "Demon God's Holy Land? Another obscure term. I don’t recall seeing any guides about it in my past life, but judging by the name, it must be a high-level map. Maybe I can even get some good loot there."
Since the Village Chief said there was no rush, he figured he might as well accept the quest for now. He could always check it out later if he really had the time.
But the Village Chief’s stinginess was truly unbearable.
Gritting his teeth, he resisted the temptation.
"Reject!"
Beside him, the Village Chief’s face twisted into a bitter frown when he saw Qin Han outright refuse the quest.
Yet, the thought of saving 100 Gold Coins suddenly brought a hint of glee to his expression.
But then, remembering his precious granddaughter, his face soured again.
Watching the Village Chief’s ever-changing expressions made Qin Han feel uneasy.
This old man…
Was a bit too abstract.
In the end, it seemed the Village Chief finally realized his granddaughter was worth more than his savings.
Taking a deep breath, as if making a monumental decision—one that looked as painful as cutting off a piece of his own flesh—he spoke with difficulty:
"Child, how about this? I’ll give you 1,000 Gold Coins and… and a piece of Dark Gold Equipment."
"This is all the savings I have left! I can’t offer anything more!"
"Have pity on this old man, won’t you? Please, just help me out this once?"
No matter how much the Village Chief exaggerated his agony, Qin Han remained unimpressed.
"That’s it?"
A few broken tiles from Thunder Poison Island were worth more than this.
Even a dog wouldn’t want such a paltry sum.
Still…
If the Village Chief could offer something like the Advanced Amplification Token from last time, he might reluctantly agree.
But judging by the old man’s expression, parting with 1,000 Gold Coins and a piece of Dark Gold Equipment already felt like a life-or-death struggle.
It was unlikely he could squeeze anything more out of him today.
Since the Village Chief had played hardball last time, it was only fair to return the favor now.
He wanted to see just what kind of treasure he could pry from the old man’s grasp.
Rubbing his nose, Qin Han said, "Village Chief, maybe you should think it over again."
"Actually, I’m in a hurry. Just give me the Captain Benefits, and I’ll be on my way. I’ve got other things to attend to."
Hearing this, the Village Chief seemed to have an idea—could he use the Captain Benefits to turn the tables?
But Qin Han gave him no chance.
"If you don’t want to, forget it. I won’t force you."
The game had already rewarded him with the Captain Token.
The Captain’s position wasn’t much lower than the Village Chief’s, so the old man had no authority over him anyway.
As for the so-called benefits— They were just trivialities like villa access, monthly salaries, and other miscellaneous perks.
He didn’t particularly care whether he had them or not.
As long as he had the Captain Token, he could compete for Nobility Rank.
The rest were just minor details.
Qin Han turned and mounted Nightmare.
Seeing this, the Village Chief snapped back to reality.
Now was not the time to be stingy.
"Child, wait! I’ll give you the Captain Benefits right now! And about the quest rewards—we can still negotiate!"
"Come back!"
But this time, Qin Han left without hesitation.
Ignoring the Village Chief entirely, he vanished from sight in the blink of an eye, thanks to Nightmare’s swift speed.
On the spot, only the Village Chief, who found it hard to face the situation, remained. He stomped his feet fiercely, repeatedly slapping his left and right hands. "Ah, what's wrong with me? How could I be so stingy again?" he muttered. "For my granddaughter's sake, I can't be stingy anymore." "Think carefully, what reward should I give him?" "Poor me, the little savings I've worked so hard to accumulate are about to dwindle again."
Meanwhile, Qin Han rode Nightmare, galloping swiftly toward the southern village. His destination was a place called Qingyun Peak in the level 10 wild area. Coincidentally, it was located just a short distance beyond the Archer Assessment Point.
Along the way, as he passed through the Wild Bull Grassland, he noticed how eerily quiet it was—not a single player in sight. Suddenly struck by a thought, he opened a private message and sent one to Li Ran: "Where are you three?"
In the Sheep Clan Graveyard, Li Ran saw the message and...
