I Can Improve Bows and Arrows!

A total of eighteen players arrived before Lin Feng one after another.

The new players curiously sized Lin Feng up.

Not only did the scenery look realistic, but this NPC looked incredibly real too, just like a living person!

"Cough, cough."

Lin Feng cleared his throat twice.

"We need to finish the fence between the Inner Valley and Outer Valley as soon as possible. Today, I'll assign more people to this work."

"Because the tribe's population has increased, the Wild Deer we hunted yesterday won't last us long. We need to hunt more prey."

With that, he issued new quests.

The five old players from yesterday, along with eight new players from today, thirteen people in total, were tasked with continuing the fence construction.

With more people, efficiency would naturally be higher. They should be able to finish before noon today.

Since the eight new players' task did not include chopping wood, the experience reward was only ten points.

The other five new players received hunting quests.

"Take your weapons and follow me."

Amid the envious gazes of the other players, Lin Feng led the five rookie players out of the valley and set off on a hunting expedition.

Early that morning, Lin Feng had triggered another new system quest.

Quest Name: Hunting Guidance

Quest Details: Guide a total of ten players and teach them basic hunting skills.

Quest Reward: 300 experience points.

He was currently level 4, with 110/400 experience points.

Once he completed the Hunting Guidance quest, he could reach level 5.

He planned to lead five players in the morning and another five in the afternoon, completing the quest within a single day.

The five players following Lin Feng on the hunt had the following IDs.

Super Invincible Pili Pala Tyrannosaurus Warrior.

Ranger.

Strong Ganmaoling.

Snail Is Not Cow.

Liubai Dianmo.

Once they left the valley, all the players were stunned by the scenery before them.

Towering Sky-Piercing Giant Trees and lush vegetation formed by ferns and horsetails filled the area with a prehistoric atmosphere.

The entire scene looked like a massive work of art.

"Wow, wow, wow! This game's Art Designer is absolutely insane! No scenic spot on Blue Star has views as breathtaking as this place!"

Ganmaoling cried out excitedly.

Ranger carefully examined the vegetation on the ground. Every blade of grass, even every leaf, had a distinct shape. There were no repeats.

How much work would this kind of art design require?

This was simply unreasonable!

Even if the game map only covered the island they were on, it would still be a terrifying amount of work.

"Keep it down. We're here to hunt, not sightsee!"

Lin Feng shot Ganmaoling, who had been yelling nonstop, a glance.

Ganmaoling quickly shut his mouth.

This game's NPC even understood sightseeing?

"Large beasts rarely appear near the valley, so it's relatively safe here. But you must never let your guard down."

"I hope you can study the hunting techniques seriously and become capable of operating independently as soon as possible."

Lin Feng said.

He could not personally lead hunting parties forever.

Once these players had mastered a certain level of hunting skill, he could hand this task over to them entirely.

Their luck was clearly not as good as yesterday's. They did not encounter any medium or large prey like Wild Deer.

After an entire morning, they had only caught two Wild Chickens, two Wild Rabbits, and one Roe Deer.

The players' performance pleasantly surprised Lin Feng.

He had thought that players accustomed to modern life would have a hard time getting started with hunting. Unexpectedly, they learned very quickly.

The hunting techniques he taught were quickly mastered by the players.

They even offered quite a few constructive suggestions.

"Today's haul is not bad. Let's head back first."

Lin Feng looked at the sun overhead. It was already noon.

He wondered how the players left in the valley were doing with the fence.

On the way back, Liubai Dianmo quietly moved closer to Lin Feng.

"Chief, I feel like the tribe's bows and arrows are a little too crude. They could be improved."

Liubai Dianmo said.

After saying that, he looked at Lin Feng somewhat nervously.

He did not know how intelligent this NPC was. Would it respond to a question that had clearly gone beyond its programmed dialogue?

If it did not respond, wouldn't he look foolish?

Lin Feng turned to look at him.

"You know how to improve bows and arrows?"

"I do, I do, I do!"

Liubai Dianmo was overjoyed when Lin Feng responded.

He knew plenty!

In the real world, he was an enthusiast of cold weapons and had handcrafted many ancient weapons, including bows and arrows.

Tools were scarce in the game, so making bows and arrows would certainly be much harder than in reality. But even without tools, he was confident that the bow he made would be better than the one in his hands.

Was the craftsmanship in Savage World really this crude?

"Very good. Then I'll leave the task of improving the tribe's bows and arrows to you!"

Lin Feng said with a smile.

This was a completely unexpected delight for him.

The players could actually improve and craft equipment on their own?

A new quest appeared on Liubai Dianmo's quest panel.

Quest Name: Improved Bows and Arrows

Quest Details: Improve the tribe's bows and arrows, making them more powerful and extending their range!

Quest Reward: Experience points (determined by quest completion), title: "Craftsman."

Lin Feng had added the title reward himself. It provided no attribute bonuses and required no additional cost.

Liubai Dianmo was thrilled to see that there was also a title reward.

What were experience points worth? Titles were proof that someone was a top player!

Even without any experience point reward, this quest was worth it for the title alone.

When the nearby players saw Liubai Dianmo trigger an exclusive quest, they all wore envious expressions.

Ranger silently summed things up.

This game's NPC possessed an astonishingly high level of intelligence. It could actually communicate with players outside its supposed scripted dialogue and generate corresponding quests.

Was that level of intelligence even reasonable?

And there was another point: quests could not only be passively accepted, they could also be actively triggered!

He definitely had to share this with Da Qing and the others when they got back.

When they returned to the valley and reached the passage between the Outer Valley and Inner Valley, Lin Feng discovered that the fence in the passage had already been completed.

A group of players surrounded the fence, working on some finishing touches.

At the center of the fence, they had left a gate more than two meters wide for people to pass through.

"Chief, the fence is complete. Please inspect it!"

Da Qing stepped forward and reported.

Lin Feng nodded and walked over to inspect the fence.

The main body of the fence consisted of tree trunks over two meters tall and as thick as an arm. This was a common kind of tree in the valley, somewhat similar to cypress trees on Earth.

The players had buried the lower halves of the trunks in the soil, then tied and reinforced the upper halves with ropes woven from vines.

Lin Feng gave it a push. It was unexpectedly sturdy.

He had only intended for the players to build a simple fence, one that could stop some small beasts from breaking into the valley and causing trouble.

But the fence the players had built could not only stop small beasts. Even some medium and large beasts would be kept outside, as long as they did not possess exceptional strength or jumping ability.

It was an utterly unexpected surprise.

"You've done very well!"

Lin Feng said approvingly.

The Build Fence quest on the players' quest panels had been completed.

Because they had exceeded the quest requirements, the system generously awarded everyone an extra ten experience points.

"I leveled up!"

"Haha, I leveled up too!"

Da Qing and the other five First Batch of Players had accumulated some experience yesterday, so they directly reached level 1 after completing the quest.

Main attributes +2, all other attributes +1.

The new players all looked on enviously.
