Rebirth of the God Hunter Legend

Chapter 37 The Bloodline of the God of Hunting

Level 10 is the first watershed moment in Divine Revelation, and it is from here that professions begin to be fundamentally differentiated.

Leaving the Gale Forest and arriving at the outskirts of West Village, newcomers were still relentlessly striving in the Level 1 Horned Rabbit Zone, but those who had once mingled there had long since moved on to the Level 4 realm. Along the way, Ling Chuan and his companions attracted attention wherever they went, not for any other reason than their thorny armor, which clearly surpassed that of ordinary people and exuded a powerful aura.

As they approached the gate of West Village, Ling Chuan stopped and asked Yi Han and Ling Feixue, "Do you remember who you applied to for the job?"

Ling Feixue nodded, "South Village Church, Sister Sista."

Yi Han followed up, “The Kitamura Guard Center, the gunnery of Houston.”

Ling Chuan was quite satisfied. The reason he was given such detailed instructions was that once players reached level ten, they would automatically receive a job quest called "Job Application." The quest description only stated one thing: return to the starting village as soon as possible to complete the job application. It didn't tell you the approximate location to submit the quest, nor did it tell you the NPC to submit it to. This meant that to successfully complete the quest, you would need to have a certain understanding of the various areas of the starting village and know which job was associated with which functional facility.

As for the NPCs, their design is quite disgusting. The people who grant them employment certificates are often not core members of a particular facility. For example, priests don't seek out the bishop of the church, but rather one of the nuns, Sista; warriors don't seek out the chief of guards at the guard center, but rather one of the guards, the gunner Hoston; and mages are even more bizarre, they don't seek out the mage facility, but rather the accountant next to the village chief, a beautiful woman with a great figure and wearing a monocle.

These difficulties will undoubtedly frustrate players who are ahead of their level, but the creators of this quest script must have put a lot of thought into it.

Dialogue, exploration, and discovery are the fundamental reasons why this game has remained popular for over a decade. The creator hinted at the importance of patience and attention to detail from the very beginning of the game through this mission.

Of course, this difficulty will be overcome in a very short time. After all, the world is never short of talent in any field. Some people are born to enjoy exciting and intense battles, so they head straight to the wilderness to fight monsters as soon as they enter the game; others are born to enjoy the storyline and are good at observation, so they start exploring the map, engaging in dialogues, uncovering clues, organizing their plans, and then creating strategies. In his previous life, he was the latter. So when the forum complains about the difficulty of the job application process, players who have studied this area will naturally provide answers.

After instructing the two to meet at the auction house after joining the company, Ling Chuan strode towards Ron. That's right, the cooldown for bribery had long since ended, and it was time to continue expanding the scope of protection.

At this moment, Ron was leaning against the door with his eyes closed, resting. Beside him, a giant sword as big as a door was plunged into the ground, which not only showed the sharpness of the sword he held, but also highlighted his immense power.

"Hey! Let me see? You're looking more and more like a warrior, all majestic and imposing."

Before even getting close, Ron opened his eyes, a chilling sharpness emanating from them, making him appear incredibly shrewd. The archers and spearmen beside him, when they looked at Ling Chuan again, no longer displayed the coldness and hostility they had shown before, but instead wore friendly expressions.

Ling Chuan stepped forward with a smile, lightly tapping Ron's shoulder with his fist, and said generously and politely, "You always tease me when you come back."

Ron laughed loudly, grabbed Ling Chuan's hand, a barely perceptible look of surprise flashing in his eyes, and then calmly accepted the 16 silver coins that Ling Chuan had secretly given him.

[Ding] System notification: Your shrewdness has been recognized by [Captain Ron]. Under Ron's instruction, the area of ​​the wilderness protected by Ron will be increased by 100%, with Ron as the center. Current protection range: 320 (originally 160).

Having successfully bribed him and exchanged a few pleasantries, Ling Chuan didn't linger any longer and stepped into the beginner village.

The hunter's application was submitted by none other than his adopted brother, the hunter Zhang Meng; a reclusive master with unparalleled skills, he should rightfully serve as the guide for granting the hunter's certificate, and coincidentally, he was located in West Village.

Ignoring the stares and exclamations along the way, Ling Chuan strode towards the hunter's location. A hundred meters away, Zhang Meng, who was routinely mocking the new player, suddenly looked at Ling Chuan. His expression instantly changed from sneer to cheerfulness, and he waved and shouted, "Brother!"

This call was extremely sincere, and all the players within a 500-meter radius looked at him. The feeling was even more terrifying than being under a spotlight. He admitted that his strong mental fortitude triggered his embarrassment on the spot.

"Wow, isn't that the guy who's been through countless lifetimes? The freak who's number one on the server's level leaderboard."

"It really is! Level 12! How did he reach that level?" "There are rumors on the forums that he cheated, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"Huh? There's a post about this on the forum?"

"Wow, bro, are you even aware of this? How could you not know about such big news? It was already second in the trending topics half an hour ago, second only to the announcement post about the opening of the Divine Revelation server, and it was also third in the trending topics. It's well-known throughout the entire server."

"Oh my god! I have to go check it out!"

……

Hmm? Famous now? Ling Chuan glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, then quickly put the matter to himself. He would definitely keep an eye on it when he had time. It's a huge sin for someone to become famous without even realizing it.

Ling Chuan walked up to Zhang Meng in a few steps and said directly, "Brother Zhang, I've come to submit my job application."

Zhang Meng was taken aback, looked deeply at Ling Chuan, and suddenly burst into tears, hugging him tightly. He choked out, "You truly are my worthy brother, Zhang Meng. The world thinks hunters are weak, only fit to provide exploration and assistance to other adventurers. But only hunters who have truly entered the Holy Realm understand that on this continent, hunters are the kings. My worthy brother has chosen to be a hunter, which shows that he has the ambition to rival the bright moon. How could I, your elder brother, refuse?"

Without any hesitation, Zhang Meng waved his hand, and a golden light fell on Ling Chuan's head, followed by a system notification.

[Ding] System notification: You have completed the career quest [Job Application] and successfully joined the [Trainee Hunter] team. You have gained 1000 experience points and 10 silver coins. Since your affinity with Hunter Zhang Meng has reached 100%, you will receive an additional 1000 experience points and 10 silver coins.

[Ding] System notification: You are the first [Hunter] player in the entire server to complete the [Job Application]. System reward: Legendary +3, Gold +5, Luck +2.

Bathed in golden light, feeling warm all over, Ling Chuan continued after a brief moment of savoring the sensation, "Brother Zhang, please teach me your skills."

Zhang Meng nodded emphatically, "Of course! Now that you've completed your hunter induction, you should naturally learn our hunter's true skills. Also, to celebrate your first job in your life, I've prepared a generous gift for you. Here, remember, choose the best one!"

After speaking, Zhang Meng waved his hand again. This time, instead of a flash of golden light, he pulled out an interface from his spatial dimension, on which were engraved four exquisite icons: two white, one dark red, and one gleaming gold! Dark red?! Gleaming gold?!

Ling Chuan trembled as he placed his hand on the icon that was flashing with dark red light, and instantly gasped!
