Yin-Yang Harmony System

Chapter 38

Walking on the street for ten minutes, he finally reached the tall silver building. Standing in front of the Hunter Guild, he saw a bunch of other players walking around. There was a slight difference in player and NPCs.

Each player has a typical green exclamation mark above their head. This green mark indicates they are the normal players. Some prestigious players are given a different kind of mark. Currently, he only knows about another kind of mark except for the green exclamation mark.

A common but also very uncommon at the same time would be the red exclamation mark. This mark represents a group of people who breaks the laws of the game. Normally, there aren't many rules in this game. But there is an absolute rule.

You can't fight inside the town unless it comes under some legal circumstances. Once you start a fight, you would be immediately captured by the NPCs and live a life hunted by both players and NPCs for a certain time.

He walks inside the hunter guild. There was a huge silver gate guarded by four NPCs. He didn't need to do anything. He directly walked inside and found a receptionist desk at the right corner directly opposite the door.

There were hundreds of players looking at giant walls that were full of posters. These posters had tasks and rewards written on them. Mike couldn't get a clear view of those tasks from the distance he was looking. But he found there were thousands of these posters.

There were dozens of tables, chairs, and benches inside this massive room. Only a few of these pieces of furniture were empty. Most of them were occupied by the various players. When he tried to listen carefully, he found they were talking about forming a party for the raid on a certain dungeon.

Since he was walking, he couldn't listen to their entire speech. He walked near the receptionist desk where seven beautiful women were standing. These beautiful were wearing a yellow shirt with a knee-sized tight skirt.

They had a charming professional smile even when talking with other people. Five of them were busy with other players, listening to the player's words with an attentive mood. Mike walked towards the lady at the right corner who wasn't busy with another player.

Seeing Mike approaching her, a professional smile shined even brighter. When Mike reached in front of her, she quickly asked "Sir, would you like to register to the main guild?"

Mike was truly surprised by her actions. He knew they could immediately find out he was very new here. But her words indeed surprised her. He thought he had already registered into the Hunter Guild and buy the Ascending to Godhood full set.

Seeing his confused expression, she made another brilliant smile and said "Sir, when you registered in the Hunter Guild to buy the gaming set was your proof in the outside world. But here, things are a little different. Ascending to Godhood is not just a simple game where you can hunt monsters and level up. There is something more to it."

"Oh! So, where can I more information about the Ascending to Godhood? I didn't find anything unusual on its website." This piqued his interest, so Mike didn't hesitate to ask.

The receptionist lady walked towards a room near their desk. After a minute, she came out with a large book. Just from the glance, Mike could say it would be around five thousand pages thick. That made him gulp his saliva.

"Sir, this is the basic guidebook of the Ascending to Godhood. It is free but you need to make sure you don't speak about it outside the game. If you were caught spreading these basic rules to the outside world, you'll be hunted by the Revolution." The receptionist lady pushed the book near him and spoke with a smile.

But her smile terrified him. The most terrifying thing about the Revolution is their way to do things. They are literally turning humans into a program and nobody is complaining about it. After all, if those NPCs wanted to complain, they would've asked him to spread the news about them to the outside world.

And that could hamper Revolution's reputation. But no, that middle-aged man only said he felt happy being a program and guarding the world here. Mike slowly began to understand that the Revolution does their things with complete dominance.

Just like right now when the receptionist lady told him not to tell anything about the Ascending to Godhood in real-world otherwise he would be hunted by the Revolution. Just these words are enough to terrify almost everyone.

He doesn't have a clear understanding of the Revolution but from what he understands. This organization can do almost anything they want under a single person's order. He doesn't know whether to call evil or good.

But he knows one word that could be suitable for that man. That word would be selfish. Nodding his head, he puts the book inside his inventory and asked: "So, how can I register?"

"Did you register before entering this town?" The receptionist asked

"Yes!" Saying so, he folded his shirt and showed his tattoo. Seeing this tattoo, she took out a unique vertical stone and put it above his tattoo.

In an instant, his tattoo was recorded in the stone as the stone shone in golden color. The receptionist nodded her head with satisfaction and put away the stone. She took out a black card that was made like a debit card.

"This is Hunter License. It has a unique feature to hold the hunter's contribution in points. Once you finish a certain task or clear a dungeon on your own, your contribution points will increase. Once it reaches a certain point, you can start your own guild. For further information, you can check out that book."

"Guild huh!" Mike was amazed when he heard he could start his own guild. But soon, he calmed down and asked "So, after taking the task, how can I prove that I've completed the task?"

"Once you complete the task, you'll be given a certain prove that could be body part of the monster that you killed or direct note about your progression. Normally, once you kill a monster, you'll be given a certain body part of the monster in each kill. So, except for the party dungeon tasks, most of the other task has this way of confirmation." Hearing his question, the receptionist calmly explained.

"Alright! By the way, can I get Bookmark Map Device?" Just when he was about to turn around, he remembered the words of that middle-aged man. So, he didn't hesitate to ask.

The receptionist was a little surprised by his words but she quickly composed herself and took out a rectangular radar. There was a green screen on the radar and it showed a small map on it. Before giving it to him, she explained "Bookmark Map Device is important for any hunter. It works on money, so you need a certain amount of wealth to operate it."

"The first bookmark of the location is free. Once you bookmark this location, you can freely teleport to that area. There are some restrictions. You can't use it for teleporting when you are outside the city. If you out, then it works as a normal guide map for you."

"It takes five bronze coins to bookmark Basic-Level cities like the City of Athens. For more information about the cities, you should check your book. Teleporting between two cities costs ten bronze coins. If you are bookmarking places outside the city, then it would cost you five bronze coins."

"Oh! I forget to mention. Although you can't teleport inside from outside the city, you can teleport outside from the city. Of course, you need to bookmark the place first. This is a basic feature for those who can't complete the task in a single day."

After finishing her words, she passed the Bookmark Map Device to him. Mike nodded his head and finally walked towards the tasks section. Basically, he knew there would be many tasks. So, he walked towards the tasks where a low-level player like him was discussing.

Each cultivation stage has its own level of aura. Unless someone completely hides his aura, it would be easy to detect their cultivation. A person whose cultivation realm is at the first stage of the Soldier would have a one-centimeter thick aura.

The colors of the aura are generally determined by their ability. He could easily see most of them were at the third, fourth, and fifth stage of the Solider Realm. Because of nine evolution, the difference in stages is large.

So, he directly walked towards those with the third stage of the soldier realm. Most of them were youth around his age. Only a few people looked older. He saw bunches of different tasks and started choosing a suitable task.

"Task- Killing Fifty Goblins of Northern Side

Reward- Two Hundred Bronze Coins, One HP Potion, and an F-Rank Weapon"

"Task- Clear Water Jade Dungeon

Reward- Five Hundred Bronze Coins, Six HP Potions, and three F-Rank Weapon

Restriction- Three Member Party"

"Bro, are you willing to take that task with us?" Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind when he looked at the second task with a deeper gaze.
