Main Scenario Quest!

"Eh?" Zhou Zhou stared at him, his face a mixture of surprise and disbelief. This Crimson Blaze Wyvern, a creature whose body was a treasure even nobles would covet, was being offered to him, a stranger, just like that?

"Really...?" Zhou Zhou mumbled, his voice laced with doubt. "But it was you who killed it..."

"Then I'll just take it for myself—" Han Jingzhi turned towards the wyvern's corpse, his hand reaching out.

Seeing his actions, Zhou Zhou's heart plummeted. "Wait! I want—No, please let me have it! I, Zhou Zhou, with my honor as a knight of Gresham, will forever be in your debt!"

Lilith, watching the scene unfold, couldn't help but whisper, "Brother Jingzhi is truly kind. If it were anyone else, they would have definitely kept it for themselves."

Zhou Zhou, overwhelmed with gratitude, fell to his knees and kowtowed deeply before Han Jingzhi. "If there is anything this savior needs from this Zhou Zhou, he will do it without fail!" he declared, tears welling up in his eyes.

Han Jingzhi, unused to such fervent displays of gratitude, was taken aback. He was just about to ask for a few gold coins, but seeing Zhou Zhou's heartfelt plea touched his heart. Yet, a pang of sadness lingered within him. "No need to be so humble," he said, his voice soft. "If I can exchange a mere monster body for someone's life, of course, I will do it without hesitation."

"Thank you! Thank you very much..." Zhou Zhou remained kneeling, his voice choked with emotion. "Not only did you already save me once from the Crimson Blaze Wyvern... You've also given me the body of the Crimson Blaze Wyvern... In such a short time, you have already saved my life twice! Please, accept this as my gratitude..."

Zhou Zhou reached into his pouch and brought out a token, its surface adorned with a pentagon symbol. "Please take this, savior, as I have nothing else to offer."

Han Jingzhi examined the token, his brow furrowed. "Name: Pentagon Token. Rank: ???. Use: ???..."

"Take it!" Lilith urged softly, her voice barely a whisper. Heeding her advice, Han Jingzhi stored the token in his inventory.

'It's so awkward seeing a grown man like this, bawling his eyes out...' he thought inwardly, a hint of amusement creeping into his thoughts.

"Please, stand up, Zhou Zhou," Han Jingzhi said gently. "There's no need to be so formal."

It took a moment, but Zhou Zhou eventually calmed down and rose to his feet. "Can I get to know my savior's name?" he asked, his voice regaining its composure.

"You can call me Han Jingzhi."

"Then, Savior Han Jingzhi, once again, I am Zhou Zhou, a knight of the esteemed Gresham Kingdom." Zhou Zhou extended his hand for a handshake.

Han Jingzhi took it, a smile playing on his lips. "Nice to meet you, Zhou Zhou."

"So, may I ask where Savior Han Jingzhi is heading?"

"Oh, that's the Skeleton Graveyard," Han Jingzhi replied.

"SKELETON GRAVEYARD!!!" Zhou Zhou exclaimed, his eyes widening in alarm.

"Yeah..." Han Jingzhi said, ignoring his expression. "It's a dangerous place, but I'll be careful."

"Please, be careful," Zhou Zhou urged, his voice laced with concern. "I can only offer you some advice, but please, be cautious."

"Yeah, take care," Han Jingzhi said, turning to leave, Lilith at his side.

Just as they were about to depart, Zhou Zhou called out again, his voice hesitant. "Um, Savior Han, by any chance, are you an adventurer?"

The term 'adventurer' was a common term used by most NPCs in the game to describe a Player, and Han Jingzhi was aware of this thanks to the forum.

"Yes...?"

"If you're interested in intervening in the Gresham Kingdom's internal strife, you're welcome to find me in Gresham Kingdom castle… This will grant you entry there," Zhou Zhou said, passing a small insignia to Han Jingzhi.

As Zhou Zhou finished his sentence and handed over the insignia, a loud announcement reverberated across the entire sky of Revolution Online, causing a stir throughout China.

[World Announcement: Player Demonic Troll had become the first player to discover a main scenario regarding the Gresham Kingdom!]

Han Jingzhi stared at the insignia in his hand, his mind reeling. He had stumbled upon a main scenario, a quest that could potentially shape the fate of the entire kingdom. The weight of this discovery settled upon him, a sense of responsibility mixed with excitement.

"Well, this is certainly unexpected," he muttered to himself, a grin spreading across his face. He had no idea what awaited him in the Skeleton Graveyard, but he was ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead. He glanced at Lilith, who was watching him with a mixture of amusement and anticipation.

"Let's go," he said, his voice filled with a newfound determination. "The Skeleton Graveyard awaits."

As they walked away from Zhou Zhou who was waving wildly at them, Han Jingzhi couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude for the unexpected encounter as he waved back. This chance meeting had not only provided him with a valuable item but had also opened up a whole new world of possibilities. He had a feeling that this was just the beginning of his adventure in Revolution Online.

...

He was taking path in a big scenario...

"Crown Prince Da Bai you forget about been the king" A mischievous and cruel smile appeared on his face as he stared at the quest notification before his eyes, pulsating with a golden glow:

Han Jingzhi's heart leaped with excitement as he read the notification. This was a major quest, one that could have far-reaching consequences. He had no doubt that it would be a challenging undertaking, but he was ready to face it head-on.

"Let's do this," he muttered, his eyes gleaming with determination. He clicked "Yes" on the notification, and a wave of energy surged through him. He felt a surge of confidence and a renewed sense of purpose.

This quest, he knew, would be the start of something big.

As they left Zhou Zhou watched them in the distance suddenly he remembered the monster's corpse.

"Ah! I've not retrieve the body..." Zhou Zhou said hastily, and quickly went for it.
