Fisherman Nat Pagle's Quests

Not to mention he brought two powerful helpers, even if it was a one-on-one fight with this old turtle, it would be an easy and pleasant task for Yang Jian.

They walked along the coast towards the river mouth.

All the wild monsters encountered along the way were killed.

It must be said that two purple talents are indeed a bit outrageous.

"Boss, during the meeting this morning, you only talked about what blue talents were like. What about our two purple talents, how should our salary be calculated?"

Xia Mingruo, the mage's talent, had absolutely explosive output capabilities.

No need to mention critical strikes; those who know, know!

Just what is the concept of this 20% haste?

It's like having 'Bloodlust' on him every day... And Xia Mingwei, the Paladin sister, was no less impressive.

An additional 20% Holy Damage, and you should know that Holy Damage has the characteristic of ignoring defense.

It could also generate a large amount of extra threat... just enough to hold the wild monsters that Xia Mingwei had beaten to a pulp!

If it were a less powerful MT, they probably wouldn't be able to hold the BOSS, who would be howling and wanting to attack Xia Mingruo!

"Easy to say, you two sisters will have a monthly salary of 100,000, and a triple salary at the end of the year!"

Xia Mingwei and Xia Mingruo couldn't even bother to fight the monsters anymore, turning their heads in surprise to look at Yang Jian.

"Boss, has anyone ever told you that you're especially handsome?"

"Yes, yes! The first time I saw you, Boss, that day, I thought you were some movie star..."

Flattery, free of charge, was continuously showered upon Yang Jian, but it didn't make him feel conceited.

Instead, he calmly shot down the wild monsters he had just pulled with three or two arrows!

"Fighting monsters, focus!"

"Boss, what you just said, does it count or not?"

"Go pick up the loot first, OK?"

Xia Mingruo quickly scurried off to pick up the drops.

The three people here all had terrifyingly strong monster-fighting talents, but unfortunately, none of them had any bonuses to drops.

The drops were decent enough; given a large enough base, they did drop quite a bit of equipment for Yang Jian and his party.

Finally, around three in the morning, the trio finally arrived at the river's estuary.

Nat Pagle's location was not difficult to find.

He wore a felt hat and stood beside a rock, concentrating on fishing.

【Name: Nat Pagle (Fishing Master)】

【Description: A not-so-ordinary ordinary NPC, who has vowed to fish all the fish in the world of 'salvation'. You can ask him for fishing skills!】

【Note: If you can show him your strength, you might have unexpected gains!】

When he saw the note, Yang Jian was startled; there were unexpected gains?

Just as he was thinking, it looked like a fish had taken the bait!

Nat Pagle quickly reeled in the line, a pull and a tug, showing off his grace!

"Hello, warriors! Sorry I didn't see you just now!"

Nat Pagle appeared very polite.

Anyone who can travel the world and fish everywhere must have considerable strength.

Not to mention in the game, even outside, those fishermen who can fish day and night and always come up empty, if they couldn't even afford food, would they still have the heart to keep feeding the fish?

Nat Pagle also had wealth and considerable strength, but in this world of abyssal gazes and rampant monsters.

Being overbearing is a quick way to an early death!

"Hello! We teamed up to level up, and seeing someone still fishing here so late, we thought..."

"Haha, thought I was a BOSS? Came to clear the dungeon...?"

Yang Jian was speechless. Are you that fluent in online game jargon?

The Xia sisters behind him were even more surprised.

Although they had read posts outside saying that the NPCs in this game were incredibly intelligent, almost like real people.

But when they logged in, it was during theHosting period!

It looked no different from other online games... Now, seeing this Nat Pagle and hearing his way of speaking, they finally realized how high the intelligence level was!

"Don't mind me for being blunt, but with just the three of you, not to mention your levels, can this setup even beat a BOSS? Even the weakest Level 5 leader monster, you probably couldn't beat..."

Yang Jian smiled slightly and didn't argue.

He displayed his hidden 'Butcher' title!

"This..."

Nat Pagle looked at Yang Jian's title, slightly stunned.

"I see you don't have much to do; can you help me with something?"

【Ding, Nat Pagle has issued a quest to you. Do you accept?】

【Description: Nat Pagle is fishing here, but some annoying things keep bothering him. Please help him deal with these reckless little things!】

【Quest Objective: Kill 50 crabs/turtles wandering nearby.】

Because they were in a team, when Yang Jian accepted, the whole team also accepted the quest.

The quest description was standard, but in Yang Jian's 'Heavenly Eye', it was a different story!

【Description: Seeing is believing, and even titles can be cleverly obtained! Nat Pagle, who has been in the 'salvation' continent for tens of thousands of years, knows all too well the tricks involved. He decided to personally test you!】

【Note: The shorter the time taken, the better the reward!】

"Then you go and get busy... Oh, I've been fishing here for a long time. I plan to leave when the sun rises, so..."

Yang Jian understood and gave him an OK gesture!

Nat Pagle smiled, cast his rod gracefully, the hook and line drawing a beautiful arc as it flew into the distance.

Fifty?

Who are you looking down on?

On the way here, we killed at least two or three hundred... Hmm?

Killed two or three hundred?

They haven't respawned yet, have they?

Thinking of a terrifying possibility, Yang Jian quickly led his two followers to search for wild monsters in the surroundings.

Fortunately, they hadn't walked far when they saw a lone turtle wandering on the beach.

They must have cleared out all the wild monsters here earlier, so this one must have just respawned.

As long as the first one respawned, would the second one be far behind?

Let's fight!

Forty minutes later, the three returned to where Nat Pagle was fishing, with the quest completion notification.

The main reason it took so long was waiting for the wild monsters to respawn!

"That fast?"

After Yang Jian submitted the quest, Nat Pagle was still a bit incredulous.

"I didn't expect it; you three little noobs, at most Level 5, could actually fight monsters so many levels higher! You are indeed very strong!"

【Ding, you have completed Nat Pagle's 'Clear Out the Trash Fish' quest. Reward: 500 experience points, Nat Pagle Favorability +10, 3 silver coins.】

The three successively turned in their quests, only to see a golden flash of light on the bodies of the two followers.

Both of them leveled up to Level 5!

Level 5 is a turning point for everyone, and it was the same for the two sisters.

"Congratulations, your strength has increased again! I happen to have another matter I'd like to ask for your help with..."

Just after turning in the quest, Nat Pagle spoke again.

"When I came, a Beach Crab King not far to the south snatched my hat. Can you help me get it back?"

【Ding, Nat Pagle has issued a quest to you: Retrieve the stolen hat.】

【Description: A Bronze-level crab has stolen Nat Pagle's favorite hat. Please go and retrieve it for him!】

【Do you accept the quest?】

"Accept!"

Does that even need asking?

He used his Heavenly Eye again to see if there was any hidden information.

【Don't ask how an Level 8 Bronze-level BOSS snatched a hat from the 'Third-Tier Silver Elite' Nat Pagle; just tell me if you're going to get it back or not?】

Yang Jian: ...Following Nat Pagle's directions, the three walked south.

"Boss, aren't we just coming from that direction? I heard that NPC imply that it wasn't even near the main road! How come we didn't see the BOSS when we came?"

Xia Mingruo was outspoken, asking whatever came to mind!

Xia Mingwei, however, had her own thoughts.

"Maybe it's just a quest BOSS... Maybe he put it there himself!"

"That's possible?"

As the three chatted, they saw a half-human-tall red crab leisurely strolling on the beach not far ahead.

【Beach Crab King: LV8】

【Bronze-level】

【Health: 50000】

【Skills: Giant Pincer Swing, Bleed, Damage Increase!】

Why does this Level 8 Lord monster have the same health as a Level 5 Boar King?

Let me see what's going on!

【Description: A small BOSS thrown over by Nat Pagle to test your abilities. Go on, give him a surprise!】

【Note: Its attack power is quite high, but fortunately, you have a powerful MT!】

"Can we fight with our current strength?"

Xia Mingwei asked weakly.

"What's there to be afraid of? Charge!"

Judgment as the opener, Consecration on the ground, and he immediately started solo-tanking the BOSS's damage.

He only saw -430, +210, +290 above the Paladin's head.

Red and green numbers shimmered... Yang Jian dared not delay, Arcane Shot!

Ice Lance... -689, -271, -268, -295.

A series of bright red numbers appeared above the crab's head...
