After this, Reyker had to go catch lambs on the mountain, and he also had to go catch fish from the river in the outskirts of Harmon Village for Siouk.

In short, Siouk had given him a series of trivial tasks as quests.

Finally, when Siouk was lying in his granary that was filled with paddy, he munched on a bright red apple as he said to Reyker, “Respected warrior, I have never seen such a good person as you. I now have one last thing on my mind that you must help me alleviate.”

Hearing this, Reyker immediately straightened his back, the crucial point for the chain quests was here.

A worried expression appeared on Siouk’s face as he said, “Ever since I discovered that basement, I feel that I have been stuck with bad luck, and I felt like the whole world was against me. See, even when I was sleeping, an owl kept coming to bother me. However, it was fortunate that I met you, warrior. You are just like a God-sent angel, saving me and changing my life.”

“If I am your angel, please let me completely change your life for the better,” Reyker said.

“Warrior, I’ve been waiting for these words. Come to my backyard at midnight tonight.”

After saying this, Siouk left with a solemn face.

At this moment, another shocking news came from the world channel.

[Congratulations to the Winged Dragon Guild for activating the teleportation point of Holy Maiden City. Now, all players can choose to teleport to Holy Maiden City from the various resurrection points.]

[As a reward, the guild master of the Winged Dragon Guild will become the acting City Lord of Holy Maiden City for a month.]

“The One” was truly filled with talents.

It was just so that Reyker also knew some techniques regarding exploring main cities, however, he did not have enough time to do so. He was thinking that if everyone’s progress was quite slow, he would be able to be the first to light up one of the main cities by taking the secret passage which had fewer monsters.

Now it seemed that this thought of his was unable to come true.

However, this wasn’t important to Reyker. He didn’t have a guild, nor did he have the ability to run one. Even if he could become the acting City Lord, it would be a useless reward to him.

Then, Reyker went to the pharmacy in town and bought two sets of HP potion, two sets of MP potion, five rolls of bandages (eliminates bleeding effect), and five bottles of antidote (eliminates poison effect, can be used to remove toxic items). (one set is equivalent to ten bottles.)

Although the guide had said that Siouk’s chain quest was not difficult and there was no risk of death, Reyker still took a cautious attitude and bought the relevant supplies.

Late at night, Reyker knocked three times on Siouk’s door, which was responded with three knocks coming from inside, which he then knocked twice.

Then only did the tightly shut door creaked open.

Siouk’s face looked a little eerie from the door crack. “Warrior, please come in.”

Reyker walked into the room and found that it was pitch black, the only light coming from the candle in Siouk’s hand.

“Sir Siouk, can’t you light a few more candles?” Reyker asked.

“Shut up and come with me.” Siouk’s voice suddenly became stern and sharp, but then he said in a pitiful tone, “Forgive me, warrior, I have my reasons.”

Hearing this, Reyker also felt amused. Forget it, why should I argue with an NPC?

He turned up the brightness in the game a little, but the effect was not obvious.

This made him miss the skill of the nuns — the Church’s Everlasting Lights. Even a small fireball that could be condensed by a mage in his hand would be fine.

After more than ten seconds, Reyker passed through the Siouk’s courtyard and arrived at the backyard.

“Warrior, please take a look,” Siouk said as he pointed at the wooden door that had appeared on the ground of the courtyard, “This basement seems to have been cursed by the devil. Once this door sees sunlight, it will disappear. It will only appear in the darkness.”

This should be some kind of magic array.

Reyker was not surprised by this item. He was only curious as to why items that would only appear after players reached level 30 or 40 would appear in the Novice Village.

It could really be said that “The One” had one too many well-hidden plot foreshadowing.

“What do you want me to do?” Reyker turned around and asked.

“I went into the basement once. I only took a glance at what was inside before coming out. But from then on, I was stuck with bad luck. I hope you can help me destroy whatever is inside so that I can get rid of the bad luck.”

If he were in reality, Reyker would never have chosen to take the risk, but he was in a game now, so it was a given he would choose the exciting option.

He said in a serious voice, “Alright, leave it to me.”

“Thank you so much.” Behind Reyker, Siouk’s eyes revealed a trace of evil.

The owl from afar flew over again. It flapped its wings and let out a shrill cry in the sky.

With a creak, the door to the basement was pushed open by Siouk.

Immediately, a damp smell of moss and mold rushed over.

“Can you give me the candle? “Reyker, who had walked into the basement, turned around and asked.

“Of course, honorable warrior.”

In the corridor leading to the basement, the flame of the candle was trembling in the air like a virgin surrounded by a group of big men. Under the small flame, Reyker’s shadow looked like a dancing lunatic.

“Siouk? Why don’t I see the statue you mentioned?” Reyker asked.

Suddenly, there was a creak from behind, followed by the sound of the wooden door shutting.

Damn it!

Reyker subconsciously turned to run back and return to the ground, but the door to the basement had already been sealed shut with lightning speed.

“Damn it, I was actually tricked by an NPC!” Reyker felt angry.

It was just so that the moment the door was shut, the candle in his hand had extinguished.

F*ck!

Only Reyker’s breathing was left in the dark corridor.

Meanwhile, Siouk took out a portrait of a middle-aged man from his clothes.

There was a name written on the portrait — Count Hilder.

Following this, Siouk took out a dagger, cut his wrist, and let the blood drip on the door of the basement.

The blood seemed to be sentient as they killed in the cracks of the door to the basement. The blood gradually filled the entire door and then merged with it. As a result, the basement door began to become illusory, as if it was going to merge with the ground.

“Damn it, damn it!” Reyker quickly pushed at the basement door with his hand, but it didn’t budge.

Werewolf transformation!

The giant werewolf’s body filled up the narrow underground passage in an instant. The werewolf’s huge claws struck the wooden door heavily, producing loud bangs.

Siouk, who was kneeling on the ground, was praying.

“Dear grandfather, I have completed the task you have entrusted me. I beg you to lift the witch’s curse on the Twisted Forest.”

Then, he stood up with a face full of excitement and ran toward the Twisted Forest. His eyes were filled with excitement and madness.

In the corridor, as Reyker continued slamming his werewolf claws against the door, he felt that something was wrong. The sensation of wood had, and he felt as if he was patting on wet soil..
