Task Objective, It's in the Gnoll Tribe!

Opportunities often come with risks.

Fang Yuan was a very cautious person.

He believed in planning before acting.

Whether a matter could be undertaken depended not on the reward.

But on the price he would have to pay.

If the price was within his acceptable range.

Even if the success rate was only 1%, he would still take the risk.

So, after hearing the prompt from his Lord's Mark, Fang Yuan didn't immediately choose to accept the task.

Instead, he began to recall knowledge about tasks initiated by tokens in his mind.

"Tasks initiated by tokens can be of all sorts of types."

"This means it's difficult to find universal rules to judge the potential rewards of such a task."

"However, the method of acquisition can give a rough estimate of the difficulty."

"The Wolf Tooth Pendant was obtained by Lilith after defeating the scouts of a Gnoll tribe."

"And this task is a plea for help."

"The task content is likely related to the Gnoll tribe."

"If that's the case, the task should be to defeat the Gnoll tribe."

"Then the danger in completing the task would come from this Gnoll tribe."

"If I deduce it this way, the task difficulty shouldn't be high."

"I could completely dispatch Lilith with the Wolf Hunters and Flame Mages to take it down."

"Even if I encountered a high-difficulty task,"

"The strength of lower-tier creatures like Gnolls is limited."

"Worst case scenario, Lilith could just unleash a Meteor Fire Rain to clear the field!"

"So, in terms of the price to pay, I would at most expose Lilith's Forbidden Spell skill."

"Although exposing my trump card early might make other Lords wary, it could also save a lot of trouble."

"Then the reward!"

"At least one red item or material, and if the difficulty is higher, there's a chance to get more advanced items or Building Cards."

"These are all things I urgently need right now!"

"So, considering everything, the price to pay is within my acceptable range."

"The reward is something I urgently need!"

"This task!"

"Accept!!!"

With a plan in mind, Fang Yuan no longer hesitated and resolutely accepted the task.

"Ding, task accepted successfully, please find the task clue on the token!"

Hearing the prompt, Fang Yuan looked at the Wolf Tooth Pendant in his hand.

"Task clue!"

"That should be that plea for help letter."

"It's obviously not on the surface of the Wolf Tooth Pendant."

"So, it can only be inside the pendant."

"This wolf tooth is hollow!"

Fang Yuan gently flicked the pendant with his finger.

Indeed, he heard a faint muffled sound.

He then fumbled around the pendant for a moment.

He quickly opened the connection between the chain and the pendant.

As the top of the pendant was opened, a thin letter fell out from inside.

[Name]: Stone Spring Village's Plea

[Usage]: Upon opening, you will receive a task. You need to send someone to complete it, and then you will receive the corresponding reward.

This scene was witnessed by Lilith, who was standing beside him.

"Huh?"

"Paper from before the Great Cataclysm!"

"Judging by the quality of the paper, it must be the oil paper most commonly used by commoners."

"How strange, to be preserved for so long!"

Fang Yuan said.

"It's probably due to the influence of the Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield's laws."

Fang Yuan then thought of something and looked at Lilith.

"Lilith!"

"Is it possible that some of your items were also affected by the Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield's laws?"

"And became tokens in this world."

"And you were an Archmage of Forbidden Curses before."

"So, the tokens left behind might be quite high-level."

"Do you remember where they are?"

"Can you go and find them!"

Hearing this, Lilith's eyes showed a thoughtful expression.

Then she slowly nodded.

"It's possible!"

"But before I died, I was at the last fortress on the continent."

"At that time, I was equipped with divine artifacts."

"Especially the Abyssal Demon Staff in my hand, which could summon a hundred Demigod-level Abyssal Demons and one God-level Abyssal Demon Leader."

"My teammates were figures like Archmages and Sword Saints from our civilization!"

"Are you sure you want to go there?"

Fang Yuan gasped in shock.

"Holy crap!"

"Demigod-level Abyssal Demons!"

"And a hundred of them!"

"And a God-level Abyssal Demon Leader!"

"Just how strong was Lilith back then!"

After a moment of shock, he quickly shook his head.

"Forget it, forget it."

"It's too far off for me right now."

"But if there's a chance in the future!"

"I'll find the Abyssal Demon Staff for you."

Hearing Fang Yuan's words, Lilith giggled, her chest heaving.

"Then I'll thank you in advance, Lord."

At the same time, a notification sound came to Fang Yuan's ears.

"Ding, Lilith's favorability towards you has increased, loyalty +10!"

Fang Yuan's eyes lit up.

"As expected!"

"Women like men's sweet talk."

"I should say more in the future, her loyalty will increase, maybe I can make a move early~"

At this moment, Lilith asked.

"Lord, please quickly see what's written on it."

Fang Yuan then suppressed his fleeting lust.

He then opened the paper to check the specific clues for the mission.

As the letter unfolded, a passage appeared before his eyes.

[To the great Lord Ron of the Golden Flower Family, greetings from Grim, the village chief of Stone Spring Village.]

[Three days ago, a terrifying beast appeared outside our village.]

[As soon as it appeared, it devoured ten of our children.]

[Our village hunters went out to hunt, but only one managed to escape.]

"The hunter who escaped told me it was a magical creature, something only a Knight Lord could handle."

"It's almost time for summer planting outside the village."

"Monsters are lurking outside the village, and the villagers dare not go to the fields to work."

"If we miss this year's harvest, our Winter Spring Village won't be able to supply enough grain to Your Excellency."

"That's why I had to take the liberty of sending my youngest son to ask for your help."

"Please, the Guardian Knight of the Golden Flower Family, drive away the terrifying magical creature for us."

"Village Chief of Stone Spring Village, Year XX of the Glorious Era."

This letter was only half complete; the rest was illegible.

However, what was certain was that Winter Spring Village was most likely gone.

After the Blue Star Lords appeared in the Gondor Kingdom, they discovered that all territories were shrouded in War Mist.

Inside the mist were monsters from the Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield.

The Gondor Dynasty had been destroyed countless years ago.

And Stone Spring Village was now also monster territory.

But none of that mattered.

He only needed to complete the mission.

From the contents of the letter, Fang Yuan could roughly guess what he needed to do.

Most likely, it was to eliminate the monsters occupying Stone Spring Village.

At this moment, the Lord's Mark popped up a message box.

"Ding, task clue found. Proceed to Stone Spring Village and eliminate the monsters within."

"Ding, map to Stone Spring Village discovered."

"Ding, task initiated. Completion time: seven days."

After a series of prompts, a marching map appeared on the previously mottled letter.

The destination on the map was marked in a mountain hollow five kilometers from his territory.

And that was the target location for his mission, Stone Spring Village.

However, that was its old name.

Now, its name was the Grim Gnoll Tribe!!!
