(An extra chapter for Brother Taipal, the Newbie Village Chief, 4/5)
Lumina received a notification as soon as she logged in today: the hidden quest had been completed. She was instructed to head to the survivor camp to claim her hidden reward.
This was the first time a major hidden quest had been completed, and the other players were curious about the unique reward too. So when Lumina, Jiechong, and Brother Black Silk hurried over, a large crowd of curious onlookers trailed behind them.
They even rented two handcarts from Maxim. Following the principle of never making an empty trip and making the most of their time, they had also picked up a daily quest to "deliver supplies."
They rode along for the journey, and the ones in charge of receiving the supplies happened to be Mud Truck and Shovel.
The two guys were already famous among the forty players. After all, while everyone else was struggling to kill monsters, they had already landed official positions.
Naturally, everyone teased them when they met. The two guys didn't mind, and cheerfully directed their assistant NPCs to receive the supplies. They had participated in the quest too, so they also needed to claim their rewards.
When the players arrived and saw the scene, they were stunned. What a sight!
Murphy wasn't the only one there; Mirian, the camp supervisor, was there too. Nearly all of the camp's important NPCs had gathered.
More than a thousand people had assembled, making it feel like a sea of humanity.
Many of the survivors were still bandaged or leaning on crutches made from wooden sticks. As they looked at the players before them, their eyes were filled with gratitude.
They would never forget how these heroes had rescued them when they had been waiting to die
