My incredible luck and the girl I picked up

A few minutes ago...

"Oh! It's a watchtower! The village is probably over there!" Mo Ruyu said excitedly, pointing to the watchtower not far away. Leng Yihan looked at where Mo Ruyu was pointing and indeed there was a watchtower, and it seemed that there were people on it.

"Let's go, let's go take a look." Leng Yihan said to the two people beside her. The three of them sped up and rushed towards the village. They arrived at the village in about a minute or two, but found that something was wrong.

This is clearly the entrance to the village, but not only is the village gate tightly closed, there's not a single person in sight.

"What's going on?" Chen Wei asked, puzzled. This shouldn't be happening under normal circumstances. There was something strange about the atmosphere at the village entrance.

"Um... Chen Weimo Ruyu, I have good news and bad news... Which do you want to hear first?"

Leng Yihan turned her head, looking both amused and exasperated.

"Uh... good news!" Chen Wei didn't hesitate for long before choosing the good news. Of course, he would hear the bad news later; he didn't want to despair so soon.

"The good news is... this village not only has people, but the average combat strength of each person is also quite good..."

"And what's the bad news?"

Leng Yihan's eyebrows twitched as she glanced at the surrounding woods.

"The bad news is... we seem to have been mistaken for bad guys... and we're surrounded..." After Leng Yihan finished speaking, one person after another emerged from the side of the woods, their bows pointed at Leng Yihan and her group.

Not only these people, but also many people stood on the city walls surrounding the village, and there were even several old cannons pointed at them, which looked like medieval things.

"State your names! Who are you?" A young man with a black crew cut stood on the city wall and loudly questioned Leng Yihan and her group.

As soon as Leng Yihan took a step forward, arrows were immediately aimed at him from all sides, warning him not to take another step forward.

Ugh... What a hassle, I'll just make something up.

"Um... excuse me! I'm an adventurer registered with the Adventurers' Guild in a nearby town, and I'm here to carry out a mission!" Leng Yihan made up an excuse on the spot. Although she didn't know if it would work, she didn't want to have any conflict with the NPCs if possible.

"Huh? Really? Show me your adventure pass, just show it to me right now, I can see it!" The young man shouted loudly to Leng Yihan. Although she didn't know if the adventure pass in the oracle would work, Leng Yihan still tried and took out her adventure pass.

The red card reflected an eerie red light in the sunlight, and the young man stared wide-eyed at Leng Yihan's adventure certificate in disbelief.

The Oracle has three main rating systems: Ladder, Ranked Matches, and Adventure Pass. Ladder and Ranked Matches represent PVP, while Adventure Pass represents PVE.

Adventure certificates are divided into seven levels: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Orichalcum, Mithril, and Adamantite.

The different levels of Adventurer's Pass mean you can get different quests from the Adventurer's Guild, and the rewards will also vary. Taking on Adventurer's Pass quests is a quick way to earn currency, and the higher the Adventurer's Pass level, the greater the discount you get when buying things from NPCs.

Similarly, the higher the level of the adventure certificate, the higher the status among NPCs.

The young man returned to the village from the city wall, and soon the village gate was opened. He ran quickly to Leng Yihan.

"Can...can I take a look?" the young man asked, his voice trembling slightly, his gaze fixed on the adamantite-grade adventurer's certificate in Leng Yihan's hand.

"Here you go." Leng Yihan showed the adventure certificate to the young man. He wasn't worried about it being stolen. It was bound to the player and couldn't be traded or stolen. It was fine for someone to see it.

The young man held the adventure permit in his hand, looking at it from left to right, and glancing at Leng Yihan every now and then, making Leng Yihan feel very uncomfortable.

"I'm sorry, esteemed Adamantite-level adventurer, I misunderstood you. My name is Dimika." After confirming Leng Yihan's identity, Dimika knelt on one knee and respectfully handed the adventurer's pass back to Leng Yihan.

“Um…you don’t have to do this, I’m not buying it. But I might need to rest in your village for a while, is that alright?” Leng Yihan reached out and took the adventure certificate before helping Dimika, who was still kneeling, to her feet.

"I'm sorry... It's just that bandits have been running rampant lately, and unless you show your adventurer's pass, you can't enter the village. I'm really sorry..." Dimika said with her head down, full of apology.

"Alright, alright, don't be like that. I forgive you. Please take us into the village then," Leng Yihan said, but she was extremely annoyed. There were only three of them; they didn't look like bandits at all.

"Um...excuse me, sir, everyone needs to show their adventure pass..." Dimika glanced at the two people behind Leng Yihan. They had overheard Leng Yihan and the others' conversation and had taken out their adventure passes.

"Two, two mithril-level adventurers! Please follow me, gentlemen..." The people who had been lying in ambush around them had already retreated. Dimika respectfully led the three into the village, and then the gate was closed.

In Oracle, the common adventurer certification level is Mithril, but reaching Adamantite requires fulfilling certain conditions, so there are relatively few Adamantite-level adventurers in the game.

Main Quest: Inquire about the bandits at the tavern and find their lair.

As the main quest was updated, Leng Yihan also noticed the message that Yinse posted in the team channel.

Extreme Cold: You guys go in and explore first, we'll stick to the main quest here.

After replying to this message, the three followed Dimika through the streets, past house after house, and stopped in front of a restaurant called Snow Inn.

"This place is responsible for providing food and lodging for adventurers. Please, gentlemen, take your leave now."

"Thanks." Leng Yihan nodded in thanks, then led Chen Wei and Mo Ruyu into the Snow Pavilion, while Dimika naturally went back to the city wall.

The restaurant was unusually lively, with adventurers sitting in small groups chatting loudly about all sorts of things. When the waiter saw the three of them come in, he led them to an empty table and placed the menu on it.

"There's a menu... How about we order some food first? We can't drink any more alcohol."

“Okay.” The two of them naturally had no reason to object to Leng Yihan’s suggestion. Leng Yihan ordered a few dishes from the waiter and a few glasses of water, while listening to the conversation of the people in the shop.

"Hey...you know what's been happening lately, with bandits running rampant around the village."

"Isn't that obvious? We have to show our adventurer's pass to come in now, it's such a hassle." Hearing the discussion about bandits at the next table, Leng Yihan immediately perked up her ears.

"I really hope someone can wipe out that gang of robbers, they're so annoying."

"Forget about it. I heard there's a level 50 person in that group. That's the minimum level required for an Orichalcum-level adventurer."

Only level 50...

Leng Yihan took a sip of water helplessly. With such a low level, it would be difficult to play any role in player-versus-player combat.

"Don't worry, every large map will definitely have more than two NPCs who can help players and whose level is the maximum, but they haven't appeared yet."

Chen Wei seemed to sense that Leng Yihan was somewhat disappointed with the NPC's level, and said softly.

Oh, I see... That's good then.

"And those bandits were really arrogant! They actually built a den not far from the village, with an arched cave entrance that was about four meters high and two meters wide. They really didn't take us seriously..."

A cave that is four meters high and two meters wide, and has an arched shape? A cave?

Leng Yihan immediately sent a message in the team channel.

Extreme Cold: Is your cave four meters high and two meters wide, and shaped like a round arch? That looks like a bandit's den.

Voice: Yes... and unfortunately, there's a level 75 NPC here, and it'll take us some effort to deal with him, but our current hiding spot is pretty safe...

Shortly after Lin Yin sent that message, the task refreshed twice.

Main Quest: Infiltrate the bandits' lair and ascertain their strength.

Main Quest: Defeat the bandit leader Koudelka.

"Let's go," Leng Yihan said, not intending to stay in the village for long. After all, she didn't know what the situation was like with the group from Class 2 of the first year of high school. It would be bad if Lin Yin and Leng Binglan happened to run into them.

After the three left the restaurant, they left the village. Dimika didn't ask any questions and simply opened the door to let them leave.

An awkward situation ensued. Not far from the village, Leng Yihan and her two companions encountered three people, who happened to be from Class 2 of the first year of high school...

42 About the School Festival (6)

Leng Yihan and her two companions encountered Huang Heng, the spear knight, Long Liyu, the priest, and Cement Road, the bard, from Class 2 of Grade 1.

Upon seeing the three of them, Leng Yihan promptly sent a message to Lin Yin and Leng Binglan.

Extreme Cold: Beware of 110 and Xuanzai. We encountered Huang Heng, Longliyu, and Cement Road. They may have made the same plans as us. 110 might be over there.

Timbre: I understand...

As soon as Leng Yihan finished sending the message, Huang Heng rushed up, his body covered in various buffs from the Bard and his own dual domains.

Leng Yihan dodged to the side, and Chen Wei rushed forward from behind to try and entangle Huang Heng.

Mo Ruyu stood behind Leng Yihan, chanting spell after spell to stack buffs on the three of them. Then, she and Leng Yihan charged towards the enemy's back row.

Huang Heng immediately turned around, and Chen Wei couldn't stop him, so he could only let him turn around to stop Leng Yihan.

Leng Yihan seemed not to see anything and continued rushing towards the dragonfish and cement road, while Mo Ruyu met Huang Heng. The bard poet made her a central figure, and together with Chen Wei behind her, they successfully blocked Huang Heng.

Leng Yihan naturally wanted to kill the priest instantly, but a sense of crisis and subconscious instinct made him stop his sword the moment he was about to strike, and dodge an arrow shot from a distance.

Extreme Cold: Fighting the BOSS! All five of them are with me!

Leng Yihan didn't need to look to know that the arrow just now was definitely shot by Yao Yaoling from Class 2 of Grade 1, used to cover the priest's escape. Although it only blocked for a moment, the priest seemed to have a skill scroll, which immediately created a considerable distance between him and Leng Yihan.

Skill scrolls are scrolls that allow you to inscribe other classes' skills onto them and then use them on other classes. Most bards and clerics carry a few skill scrolls to prevent being attacked at close range. However, these scrolls are not cheap, and there is a limit to the number of times you can use a skill scroll in PvP.

The incredibly honest and simple-minded Awei: It's a sure thing! Only substitutes can enter the game if a substitute point is found on the large map. If the entire team is wiped out when the substitute point is found, the surviving team wins. They seem to be unaware of this!

Extreme Cold: Chen Wei, we're outnumbered 3 to 5, and we haven't found any substitutes either.

The incredibly honest and simple-minded Ah Wei: ...Yeah, right!

Leng Yihan returned to Chen Wei during the battle, mainly because Yao Yaoling and Xuanzai had not yet arrived. Once the two arrived and the five of them were together again, the three of them might not be able to defeat them.

Leng Yihan made a quick decision, ceasing her pursuit of the clergyman and the bard, and turned back to rush towards Huang Heng, who was being held back by the two, hoping to eliminate the first batch of students in Class 2 of Grade 1 in the shortest possible time.

The students in Class 2 of Grade 1 reacted quickly and realized that Huang Heng was in danger. Cement Road and Longli Fish immediately turned around to support Huang Heng. Although the distance they had flashed earlier was safe, it caused the team to become separated, and Huang Heng was indeed much farther away from them.

Leng Yihan unleashed her sword intent with a three-stage slash, heading straight for Huang Heng. Huang Heng knew he might not be able to escape, so he ignored Chen Wei's damage and unleashed a whole set of skills on Mo Ruyu, hoping to take one of them down. However, Chen Wei's absolute defense blocked all the skills.

Leng Yihan had already arrived and directly attacked Huang Heng from the flank. Her Rising Dragon Sword knocked Huang Heng, who was still recovering from his attack, flying away. Her Phantom Sword triggered the equipment effect, unleashing a seamless combo that instantly killed Huang Heng.

Seeing that there was no hope of saving the famine, Class 2 of Grade 11 quickly retreated to avoid further casualties and decided to find a replacement point first.

After Leng Yihan finished off Huang Heng, Class 2 of Grade 1 had already run a short distance and couldn't catch up in a short time. The three of them decided to go to the cave that Lin Yin and Leng Binglan had mentioned immediately. Maybe the substitute point was there. As long as they could hold the substitute point and prevent Class 2's sixth player from playing, and with their numerical advantage, this game would basically be in their grasp.

Although they couldn't catch up with Class 2 of Grade 1, fortunately they didn't run towards where Leng Binglan and Lin Yin were. Instead, they went into the nearby woods and pretended to be running towards them.

However, they were indeed a bit slow. Leng Yihan still saw Long Liyu from Class 2 of Grade 1 disappear into the woods, but instead of chasing after him, they turned the tables and ran towards the cave where Leng Binglan and Lin Yin were.

Lin Yin and Leng Binglan were not just pretty faces; both of them possessed formidable strength. Just as Leng Yihan and the other two were halfway there, they had already completed another main quest.

Main quest updated: Defeat the dragon. (Substitute points unlocked)

Voice: What the hell is this dragon?! It attacks without even listening to anyone! This bandit leader is such a hassle!

Extreme Cold: ...What's going on?

After Leng Yihan asked, she did not receive a reply from Lin Yin. Perhaps they were too busy fighting to reply to the team's messages. Mo Ruyu applied another speed buff, and after walking for a few more minutes, the three of them finally saw the gate.

However, the bandit's lair had already been cleared out by Lin Yin and Leng Binglan, and there were no more monsters left inside. The three of them went in and walked deeper and deeper, but there was no way out at the deepest part.

"Where... is this intersection?"

“It’s obviously blocked…” Mo Ruyu had just finished asking when Leng Yihan pointed to the newly opened hole in the corner, which was clearly blocked by rocks.

Just then, the surroundings suddenly shook as if they were about to collapse. Leng Yihan wondered what exactly was inside, and how they could create such a destructive situation.

"How do we get in now?" Chen Wei frowned as he looked at the cave entrance in the corner. The tremor lasted for a few seconds before stopping, accompanied by a dragon's roar.
