After practicing Qi for a hundred years, I became an NPC?

Chapter 25 I am the Acting Village Chief
"Nine Heroes" is a very mysterious game, except for the trailer at the beginning and a few introductions, there is nothing else at all.

Different from various tests of other online games, before the launch of "Nine Heroes", all the content was kept confidential, only that the main character was a real immortal cultivator, and was scolded by countless players as a stinger.

There is no novice tutorial and no novice guide. Millions of players log in, and then they are confused and don't know what to do.

Shouldn't a normal cultivation game start with a novice tutorial, then choose a school, choose a profession, and then start cultivating immortals and killing monsters to spawn dungeons?
Why doesn't this game play according to the routine?Nothing, relying on players to explore by themselves?
However, the degree of freedom is indeed quite high, and curiosity has been aroused anyway.

The players cursed and looked around curiously. This weird village appeared in the trailer, and they were also curious about what would happen next.

When they don't know anything, talking to NPC is the priority of many people, and they immediately set their sights on the village.

On the other side, Xiao Hong was rushing to Heiyan Village.

In order to be realistic, the map of "Nine Heroes" is very large. There are five continents in total, namely, southeast, northwest, and central. Then there are countless countries between these continents, and there are countless towns in the countries.

But on such a large map, there is only one Novice Village.

There are so many players. As a novice village, Heiyan Village covers the entire wilderness, but occasionally it cannot accommodate so many people. People often queue up for a long time to log in. For this reason, the game operator is scolded bloody.

But no matter what they were scolded for, they didn't add any more Novice Villages.

The reason given seems to say that this is the only channel to connect to the outside world, and there is only this one on the entire map. In short, there is no increase, and the most is to expand the village.

But although the village covers a large place, there are only those people in the village. Facing these humans who fell from the sky and said all kinds of strange words in their mouths, everyone was terrified.

No matter what those strange people say or persuade, they all hide in the house and refuse to come out.

So these players began to spread out like a virus, exploring everywhere.

Because they are still ordinary people, the damage they can cause is limited, so when Xiao Hong rushed over, the village did not suffer any damage.

Because there is no NPC reception and there is no main line, you can't kill monsters, and the players don't know what to play. Except for some players who go to kill monsters, the rest are playing infrastructure near the village.

As soon as Xiao Hong came, he saw such a scene——

The villagers were so frightened that they hid in their houses and dared not come out. Players of all shapes and sizes moved stones and logs next to the village, and built houses there just like playing survival in the wild.

People can't help but wonder whether this is an infrastructure game or a game of cultivating immortals.

As soon as Xiao Hong appeared, a task was refreshed on the panel of all players at the same time.

【Novice task】

[Approach the village head of Heiyan Village, ask questions, and learn about the world]

[Task Reward: An Iron Sword, Basic Practice Techniques]

"The task has been cleared! I've been relying on it for a whole day, and I only cleared the novice task. What kind of game is this?"

"I just said why there are no novice tasks. It turns out that the important NPC didn't show up. The village head of Heiyan Village, is that young man?"

"It should be him. He doesn't look like a passerby in his clothes. He must be an NPC with a story. I'm sure he looks so handsome."

Different from the short villagers in Heiyan Village, Xiao Hong is tall and slender, with a gentle appearance, black hair tied up high, and white clothes like snow, with the posture of an immortal.

It perfectly fits the players' fantasies about cultivators.

And when they clicked on Xiao Hong, an introduction popped up on the game panel——

【Name:? ? ? 】

【Race:? ? ? 】

[Sect:? ? ? 】

【Cultivation: Qi training】

【Occupation: Acting Head of Heiyan Village】

Players: "!"

It really was him, the village chief!
Everyone was excited immediately, and wanted to come up to talk to them and carry out the task, but before they could move, the acting village chief disappeared in front of them.

Damn, is this the legendary fairy?
shrink a thousand miles?

Teleport?

Is it already so powerful just by practicing Qi?

Everyone was excited, and began to look for this person one after another. The complete unfamiliarity with this game made them very curious. Even if it was just a novice task, everyone was very active.

Xiao Hong, who disappeared in front of them, had already appeared in Heiyan Village at this moment.

His appearance attracted the attention of many players, and many of them discovered his identity and wanted to chat with him.

Xiao Hong didn't stay, and went directly to the village chief's yard.

When the door was closed with a backhand, many players were immediately shut out.

They didn't know anything about this world. Out of caution, they didn't destroy the village. They all stood outside the village chief's yard, looking forward to it.

In the courtyard, Xiao Hong saw the village head hiding in the house.

When the village chief heard his footsteps, his ears moved slightly, and his expression softened: "You are here."

Xiao Hong let out a "hmm", seeing that the village head was a little nervous, he comforted him:

"It's okay, don't worry."

"According to what you said, I have been hiding in the house and never went out. They didn't find me, did they?"

"No, don't be afraid, the village will be fine, as long as you don't get discovered, these people won't be able to dig out any secrets."

The village head obviously breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed: "You guessed it right, so many people fell from the sky, the sky is going to destroy my Heiyan Village..."

"You're too pessimistic. You haven't reached that point yet. They're just staying here. If you don't show up, they won't hurt the villagers."

Xiao Hong mixed the truth and lies together, and spoke very sincerely. The village chief now believed in him very much, basically he did what he said.

Therefore, when Xiao Hong proposed to send the village chief away, he agreed without hesitation.

"Then I'll go out to avoid the limelight, and the village will be handed over to you. It's really troublesome for you."

The smile in Xiao Hong's eyes deepened, but his voice was diligent: "Don't worry, village chief."

He listened patiently to the village chief explaining all the precautions, and then personally sent the village chief away. After making sure that everything was arranged, he opened the door of the yard.

At this time, outside the yard, densely packed with players.

Seeing Xiao Hong come out, these players immediately became excited, and all kinds of whispers were heard endlessly.

And among these faces, Xiao Hong actually saw many familiar faces.

Xiao Hong restrained his expression calmly, recalling his novice tasks in his previous life, a gentle smile appeared on his face.

He looked at the players calmly, with a gentle smile on his face, and asked softly, "Hello, I am the acting village head of Heiyan Village. What can you do?"

Some players read aloud the novice mission, saying that they need to understand the world.

Xiao Hong knew it in his heart, but there was a dazed expression on his face, and he said with a smile:
"This matter is very complicated to say. If everyone wants to know, then wait for everyone to come, and I will explain it together."

Subtext: So many people say over and over again that you will not be troubled to death, let's come together and say it again and again.

Players: "..."

Will there really be NPCs who find it troublesome to explain the rules?

But isn't this their job?

Just, inexplicably, there is something wrong with this NPC.
