Lu Yuan did not choose to complete the series of tedious pre-missions according to the script. Instead, he chose to use Norma to skip the pre-missions.

“Norma is your teacher?” Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Andre's face softened a lot, but he was obviously still a little vigilant.

“That's right. Miss Norma asked me to say hello to you. She wants to ask you, do you still have the maple leaf of Lake Duccio?” Lu Yuan spoke again.

The maple leaf from Lake Duccio was a secret between the two of them. Only Norma and Andre knew about it.

In his previous life, Lu Yuan only learned about the past from Norma when he helped her complete a series of missions.

Lu Yuan believed that Andre would not doubt him once he said this.

“So you're Norma's disciple. is Norma doing well?” Sure enough, after hearing Lu Yuan's words, Andre no longer had any doubts. He greeted Lu Yuan with a face full of warmth.

“Miss Norma is doing well. She is now living in the Tower of Amber City. She is a great mage.” Lu Yuan appropriately expressed his admiration.

“As expected, she has embarked on the path of exploring the truth.” Andre sighed, as if he had thought of something and his eyes revealed some longing.

Lu Yuan did not speak and just sat quietly.

After a while, Andre returned to reality and looked at Lu Yuan gently.

“Since you're Norma's disciple, I don't have any objections if you want to learn from me. However, you need to prove your strength.”

As Andre spoke, a system notification sounded out in Lu Yuan's ear.

[Ding! Andre's favorability towards you has increased by 150 points. Current favorability is at Fond (150/450)]

The favorability in the World of Apocalypse was divided into five levels: Hate, Indifferent, Friendly, Fond, and Adore.

Norma, forever the best… Lu Yuan could not help but cheer in his heart when he heard the system notification.

The first time players came into contact with NPCs, the favorability of the NPCs towards the players would always be Indifferent. Now, because of Norma, Andre's favorability towards him had jumped to Fond.

Players had to complete a series of missions and hand in some special items to increase their favorabilities. This three-level upgrade had saved Lu Yuan a lot of effort.

[Andre has a mission for you: Shadow Following]

[Shadow Following]

[Mission Level]: Extraordinary

[Mission Requirements]: Recently, Andre has been troubled by something. it is already the season for peach blossoming, but there isn't a single peach blossom blooming in the Peach Blossom Garden. To plant a garden full of peach blossoms was Andre's promise to Norma. Andre doesn't want anything to go wrong in the Peach Blossom Garden, so he has invited the player to go to the Peach Blossom Garden to investigate the reason.

[Mission Reward]: The player may choose any one of Andre's thief inheritance skills, 1,500 EXP, 150 gold coins, Klaus' Pendant

[Mission Failure]: Andre will randomly teach you a skill, 10 gold coins, favorability -10

“Klaus' Pendant?” Lu Yuan quickly received the mission and stared at the mission list.

He was sure that the players who completed this hidden mission in his previous life did not report of such a thing in the forum posts.

Was it a deliberate concealment or a change caused by his reborn?

Lu Yuan was sure that no matter what the situation was, this Klaus' Pendant must be extraordinary.

Even after he walked out of Andre's house, Lu Yuan was still dazed. Norma's lethality towards Andre was even greater than he had imagined.

Even if he failed the quest, Andre would still teach him a skill, though he could not choose. The only punishment was that Andre's favorability towards him would reduce by 10 points.

This punishment was neither painful nor itchy.

Holding the map that Andre gave him, Lu Yuan turned and left the novice village.

At this time, most of the Apocalypse players had accepted missions and left the village to complete them.

When he passed by the training area, Lu Yuan turned his head and saw that it was densely packed with people.

The wild monsters had just respawned and did not even survive for a second before they were killed by the players who had been waiting for a long time.

There was too little meat for so many wolves!

In his previous life, he was one of them.

But now that he had been reborn, everything would no longer be the same as before.

Lu Yuan moved forward and soon arrived at a valley.

Standing at the most conspicuous spot in the valley, Lu Yuan took out the map from his backpack and gently tore it open.

This was a map and also a magic scroll. Inside it was a small directional teleportation spell that was meticulously carved by a second-tier mage.

In the Apocalypse, all professions were divided into five tiers, and above the five tiers was the Extraordinary tier. As for the Gods above the Extraordinary tier, Lu Yuan had never come into contact with them even in his previous life.

After players reached level 20, they could begin their first profession-changing. After completing the profession-changing, they could become second tier professionals.

In other words, only mages above level 20 had the ability to construct the magic scroll in Lu Yuan's hands.

As the map was torn open, a magic black hole opened up where Lu Yuan was. Without hesitation, Lu Yuan stepped into it.

In the next second, light swirled.

When Lu Yuan opened his eyes again, he was already in a garden.

Peach blossom trees were planted all around him, and a few secluded paths were carved out within with well distribution.

“Andre is really rich. Even these paths are made of second tier materials.” Walking on the path, Lu Yuan could not help but sigh in amazement.

The Peach Blossom Garden would cost at least tens of thousands of gold coins just to build. Andre was not just ordinarily rich.

As he sighed in amazement, Lu Yuan hurried on. Soon, he arrived at the center of the Peach Blossom Garden. He stopped in front of a towering tree that was ten meters thick.

“Adventurer, welcome.” A voice entered Lu Yuan's ears. At the same time, the earth trembled slightly.

Lu Yuan had long since been prepared for these changes, thus he quietly stood there without moving.

“You're very brave, Adventurer.” The ground returned to its usual calmness, and a human face suddenly appeared on the trunk of the towering tree.

“Thank you for your praise, Sir Tree of Life,” Lu Yuan bowed to the uncle in front of him with the World of Apocalypse's etiquette.

“You deserve this praise. You're a weak Adventurer, yet you've come to look for me. What's the matter?”

“I hope you can protect this garden once more,” Lu Yuan said.

According to the post from the thief who had completed the hidden mission in his previous life, the reason why the peach blossoms in the Garden were not blooming was because the Tree of Life was no longer protecting them.

These peach blossom trees all grew next to the Tree of Life. If the Tree of Life did not protect them, it meant that the laws of this space would subconsciously hinder the peach blossom flowers, causing them to stop growing and be unable to bloom.

“Give me a reason, Adventurer. Although you are very brave, I don't think this is enough of a reason for you to make a request of me.” The Tree of Life was not angry at Lu Yuan's unreasonable actions. It looked at Lu Yuan with interest.

[The Tree of Life's favorability +10. Current favorability is at Indifferent (10/50)]

“I believe you will agree, sir..” Lu Yuan looked at the Tree of Life with confidence.
