Chapter 63 - One Truth Prevails

“Did we ular wolfhound for the Werewolf?” Xiaoyu asked

“That’s… highly unlikely,” Gu Fei believed that the chain quests’ co that the developers were very proud; hence, they would never incorporate such a ludicrous concept to any of those quests Instead of being a real olf, it was actually a wolfhound with sentience? That was just plain silly

“Let’s see if it has left any other trails of blood,” Gu Fei suggested

“Good idea! We can catch up to it by following the blood trail!” Xiaoyu exclaimed

“Uhh It was scratched once on its claw Wouldn’t it be too far-fetched for it to bleed that much?” Gu Fei rationalized

“Who knows?” Xiaoyu asked rhetorically, as she began to search around once more

As for Gu Fei, he stared intently at the few drops of blood on the ground

The Wereas far stronger than what Gu Fei had anticipated It was unusually fast and possessed high attack power Gu Fei only h he had tried his best He had no chance of winning at all if he were to engage the Werewolf in a real fight Ultiap in terth between the bosses and players Even if Gu Fei wanted to, he had no way of bridging the gap between them with his skills alone The Wereould most likely be done with Gu Fei in just two or three strikes before he could even observe its attack patterns and grasp the loopholes within

Still, ould such a powerful boss flee? Was a hten the ferocious Werewolf? This was far too ridiculous Or was the Sacred Fla plated with silver? Was the Werewolf so stricken with terror once it noticed that the weapon had been coated with silver?

Evidently, the escape of the Wereas not so that it decided on its own Rather, it was a scenario that the ganers had come up with beforehand Gu Fei just happened to fulfill the condition that led to the Werewolf’s escape

The ‘condition’ seee was such a scenario trying to convey? Gu Fei could not fathom it at the moment

“There’s no other blood trail,” Xiaoyu said disappointedly after searching the nearby surroundings through and through

“Let’s go to where the village chief is, I have soo, let’s go!”

It was quiet over in Yeguang Village under the night sky The NPCs that had earlier been roa about were nowhere to be seen; instead, there were now houses with lit s Whereas the players were active inside the gara at nightti who the huly hard

When they knocked on Chief Edwin’s door, he politely greeted theain,” Chief Edwin kept on addressing Gu Fei as the ‘Chosen Hero’

“The Werewolf that killed Murphy… What does it look like? Does it wear anything on its neck?” Gu Fei asked

“Oh, you’ll have to ask Mr Adrian about that He’s the guy who lives near the church, and the sole witness of that past incident He heard sounds coate and witnessed the Werewolf killing Murphy That poor man; he must have been traumatized,” Chief Edwin said

“Mr Adrian” Gu Fei recalled hie

“Chief, where’s Murphy house?” Gu Fei asked again

“It’s the third house by the woods No one has gone there ever since he died,” Chief Edwin answered

“Let’s go there for a look,” Gu Fei said to Xiaoyu

Murphy’s house was actually very easy to find, as it was the only one with no lit s a the houses No one lived there ever since Murphy passed away

As they drew closer to Murphy’s house, Gu Fei gently blocked Xiaoyu, as behind hinaled her to keep quiet He then carefully walked toward the house as he held Sacred Flames of Baptism in front of hih she was clueless as to what Gu Fei was doing She only saw Gu Fei walking up to the door, sticking his ear on it as he listened for quite a while, and pushing the door open Xiaoyu inspected her surroundings nervously before sneakily going inside along with Gu Fei

Gu Fei had already lit up an oil la at a parchot close to him

“Seems like a map to me,” Gu Fei answered

“Treasure map?!” Xiaoyu felt thrilled

“Too bad there’re no coordinates on it It ht be a little tricky to locate it!” Gu Fei said

“Let ht here is the e, and over here looks to be the church” Xiaoyu pointed at the parchment with her quill and started to mumble

“I knohere it is!” Xiaoyu declared happily after a while But when she turned around, she saw that Gu Fei was standing by the door and peeking outside warily

“What are you looking at?” Xiaoyu inched closer to hiestured her to keep her voice down Even though NPCs were currently outside, Gu Fei was not sure if ‘ too much noise’ would be one of the condition to cancel their current actions

“Come on, let’s trail after them,” Gu Fei pulled Xiaoyu

“I found the treasure spot!” Xiaoyu waved the parch later For now let’s trail these four fellows,” Gu Fei said

“Why? Are they up to sonized the three a uy before They are definitely up to soo!” Xiaoyu excitedly said

The four people walked silently on theon their shoulders were so that see treasures! Could they be planning to dig the treasure shown on this ure out the treasure spot of that parch now leads to that treasure or not,” Gu Fei said

“It’s not the right way,” Xiaoyu replied

“Then, let’s keep on trailing them”

The four NPCs eventually reached a little hill near the village They disappeared so away a layer of plants blocking their way

“Look, what’s that?” Xiaoyu pointed at so

“That’s a shaft” Gu Fei answered
