You can enjoy all t...This was Lu Kong's first time entering the village head's courtyard, and he found that the courtyard was overgrown with weeds and desolate.

Lu Kong was stunned, he didn't expect the village head's courtyard to be like this.

It looks like it hasn't been lived in for many years.

In the center of the courtyard there is a stone house.

Land and Sky quickly saw an old man slumped on the stone slab outside the stone house.

The old man had white hair, unkempt and tousled. He held a liquor flask in his hand.

His clothes were filthy, and even from afar, Lu Kong could smell a strange odor emanating from him.

The airship sent a probing technique, and the one who appeared was the village head. His face looked rather strange.

Is this person really the village head

One wouldn't know, they might think he was a beggar.

After all, he's too messy.

The village head seemed to notice someone entering. He raised his head and looked at Lu Kong.

Lu Kong only saw the village head's true face now, his whole face creased with wrinkles, his eyes glazed over, seeming to be very drunk.

The next moment, Lu Kong discovered that the village head stood up, his face contorted with anger.

You, you foreigners, just mind your own business! What are you interfering with You're looking for death!

Lu Kong felt a terrifying aura emanating from the village chief.

His body trembled uncontrollably.

Holy crap, this old beggar... no, this old village head is so awesome

Lu Kong saw the old village chief was about to make a move, and hurriedly said: "Wait! Village Chief, I'm here because the apothecary asked me to come!"

The village head's steps faltered, he stood there for a moment, swaying slightly, then spoke: "Oh... it's the matchmaker. What brings you here"

Liukong let out a sigh of relief.

Almost got beaten to death by the village chief.

He took out the unknown necklace and said, "Village head, do you know what this is…"

Before he could finish his words, he realized the village head had arrived before him at some point.

And the necklace in his hand, without him noticing, ended up in the village head's hands.

The old village head, normally drunk and hazy with wrinkles all over his face, was staring at the necklace in his hand, tears streaming down his face!

Lu Kong widened his eyes in astonishment.

What's the situation

Seeing the village elder staring blankly at the necklace, Lu Kong thought for a moment and didn't disturb him.

This necklace obviously has a very important relationship with the old village chief.

If he bothers the village elder now, it's probably not a good thing.

The

land and air stood waiting on the spot.

This wait was for over ten minutes.

Only then did the old village head come to his senses. He wiped his face with his hand and looked up at Lu Kong.

"Little fellow, let me show you a joke."

The old village head's voice was no longer as menacing as it had been at first, but there was an indescribable sense of vicissitudes in it, his voice somewhat hoarse.

Lu Kong smiled: "Everyone has times when they are not satisfied."

Lu Kong thought about how, when his father had just passed away, he and his mother had been in tears as well.

Seeing Lu Kong's somewhat complicated expression, the old village head smiled: “Ho ho, it seems the young fellow has some experience, too.”

"Lu Kong smiled: "If I hadn't gone through these experiences, I would have been very happy.""

"Yes..." The old village chief sighed, then began, "Do you know who this necklace belongs to"

Lu Kong shook his head.

"He is my grandson."

"Are you my grandson" Lu Kong was stunned and a little surprised.

"Yes, my grandson, I don't know if the matchmaker has told you about our indigenous people's origins" The village chief looked at Lu Kong.

"The pharmacist She told me about her."

“It seems the matchmaker has high hopes for you,” the village elder smiled. “We, as people, are at our core ghosts who have lost our homes and even our lives. But in this game world, we are no different from ordinary people. We can breathe the same air as you players, and we can marry and have children just like in reality… My grandson was born this way.”

Lu Kong was a little surprised. He didn't expect that you could get married and have children in this world!

...and so on.

Lu Kong thought of a question.

If a player marries an indigenous person, will they be able to have children

Lu Kong thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out.

The village head continued, "My son was the leader of our clan back then, and the greatest player. In his prime, he even reached demigod level, powerful enough to dominate a star system. Sadly, our planet was eventually consumed by demonic energy, and he, like us, perished in battle."

After coming into this world, he felt he had let us down, let our entire tribe down. After we were settled, he went to the Central Continent... You've probably seen the Central Continent yourself.

In Lu Kong's mind, the image of the vast continent from when they first entered the game emerged. It was millions of times larger than the Hunter Novice Continent where they were now!

Lu Kong nodded. "I saw it."

“Well, he thought that this game encompassed the entire universe. It could house our souls, and it must have a way to bring us back to life! So, he took my daughter-in-law to the Central Continent, seeking this method of resurrection, wanting to revive our entire clan. Because this journey was too dangerous, my young grandson was left behind.”

Lu Kong looked at the necklace in the old village head's hand, and his heart had some guesses.

“We were all powerful players in life, but after death, our power is reduced to a mere fraction. We also have missions assigned to us by the cosmic server and are unable to leave the village easily. However, unlike offspring born into this game world, they can leave freely. Half a year ago, a demonic rift appeared outside the village, and a group of imps were transported here. My grandson wanted to investigate the situation, but he never came back… I didn't expect to see his necklace here.”

The old village head looked at the necklace in his hands, tears welling up again.

"We are, in this world, fundamentally souls. Death here means the soul is extinguished; we cannot be revived like you players, but truly die."

Lu Kong fell silent for a moment before comforting, "Elder Village Head, I offer my condolences. Death is irreversible."

The old village chief let out a soft sigh and said, "Thank you, young man. You found my grandson's necklace, which has somewhat eased my regret. This skill book is just right for you, so I'll give it to you."

The village elder flipped his hand, and a skill book appeared.

"Thank you, village chief."

Of course Lu Kong didn't refuse.

He took it and looked, his eyes widening in shock. His heart pounded.

【Battle Intent】 (Level 1): Passive Skill, When entering combat, all of your attributes will be increased by 10%. Requirement: Warrior Class

This is a passive skill. It provides a 10% boost to all attributes upon entering combat!

This is equivalent to a permanent property boost!

Currently, there are relatively few attributes, so the effect may not be very obvious. However, when there are more attributes, this enhancement will be incredible.

And this is only a level 1 skill!

As skill levels increase, the improvement gains will naturally become more significant.

You can tell just how strong it is.

This skill is a god-tier ability even in the later stages.

I'm a little embarrassed, you know I just found this necklace and received such a generous reward... isn't that a bit too much

He muttered to himself, but his hand moved on its own. With a snap, he learned the skill.

My hands have minds of their own!

After learning the skills at the Sky Island, the village head spoke: “Young one, since the little demon arrived, we haven't heard from them. The village sent many investigators, but they found nothing. I hope you can help investigate what happened to the little demon. Would you be willing”

A system prompt sounded in Lu Kong's mind.

"Ding, mission detected: Investigate the whereabouts of the little devil. Accept"

Lu Kong was even happier, there was actually a mission!ad just slain so many King-level monsters in this wave and obtained dozens of legendary items.Top-level skill stones were also obtained in a dozen or so.Now legendary items, in the eyes of Lu Kongyan,...
