Online Game: My Skills Can Be Upgraded Infinitely Chapter 51 – The Mysterious Woman

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

It was because he noticed that there was a mysterious woman farming monsters in front of him!

The woman couldn't possibly be an NPC. In his previous life, Lu Yuan had come to the Demon Flame Mountain Range countless times, and he had never seen an NPC here!

As if sensing that Lu Yuan was looking at her, the woman smiled at Lu Yuan and said, “Hello!”

“How did you reach level 20 so quickly?” The woman asked Lu Yuan with a smile.

Lu Yuan's expression changed drastically. With these words, he could confirm she was definitely not an NPC. How could there be such an intelligent NPC?

Lu Yuan opened the system interface and checked the system announcement over and over again. It clearly showed that he was the first player to reach a level 20 main city!

Who the hell was this mysterious woman? Lu Yuan was extremely shocked. Just as he was about to ask the woman, she suddenly said, “I have some things to attend to, so I'll take my leave first!”

With that, the woman immediately left, and Lu Yuan chased after her!

When Lu Yuan chased after the woman to the foot of the Demon Flame Mountain Range, a gust of hot wind blew past his face which made him blink. In the blink of an eye, the mysterious woman had disappeared.

Lu Yuan searched the area repeatedly, but he could not find anything.

“Could it be a skill like Teleportation? Who the hell is that woman? If I'm the first player to reach a level 20 main city, then what is she?” Lu Yuan was confused.

“If she's an NPC of the game…” Lu Yuan shivered. He did not dare to think of such a possibility. If this woman was an NPC, then the speed at which the game world and the real world would fuse was beyond his imagination!

Based on his current leveling speed, the tragedy of his previous life would only repeat itself, or even worse!

After all, in his previous life, everyone's level was higher than the current timeline, while everyone was still in the rookie stage now!

“I thought that everything would be under my control after I was reborn, I never expected strange phenomena to appear one after another. First, it was Rogge and Solaka, then Princess Alice, and now that a mysterious woman. My mentality is f8cking about to collapse!” Lu Yuan roared in his heart.

“I better go do missions and level up first!” Lu Yuan shook his head. It was useless for him to think so much at this point. The only thing he could do was to become stronger.

Lu Yuan immediately turned back and soon arrived at the gates of Jinyao City.

When the knights at the gates saw Lu Yuan, they immediately pointed their knight's spear at him.

One of the knights asked, “Who are you?”

“I'm a novice knight of the Human Race!” Lu Yuan said slowly. As the City of Knights, knights had a higher status than other professions and were loved by the residents of Jinyao City!

“A novice knight? Do you have the certificate to enter the city?” The knight continued to ask Lu Yuan.

“No, but Nick, the Holy Knight in the city, is my teacher!” Lu Yuan replied. Lu Yuan had a deep impression of the Holy Knight Nick from his previous life. Nick was one of the four Holy Knights in Jinyao City. During the battle with the Demon God back then, the gates guarded by the other three Holy Knights had been trampled by the demon army. Only the east city gates guarded by the Holy Knight Nick were still intact. None of the demons had entered through those gates.

However, Nick was also the earliest Holy Knight to die in the great battle.

After hearing Lu Yuan mention Nick's name, the knights who guarded the city gates put down their spears. The knight who had just spoken bowed towards Lu Yuan and said, “So you're the student of the Holy Knight. I'm really sorry! You can enter the city now.”

With this, the tightly shut city gates slowly opened and Lu Yuan entered Jinyao City.

Lu Yuan looked at the streets of Jinyao City and found it to still be familiar. From time to time, a team of patrolling knights would pass by.

Lu Yuan directly went to a shabby little wooden house because that was the residence of the Holy Knight Nick!

He was heading to Nick's to learn the skill of a knight, to prepare for level 30 when he could equip the Frost Lance in the future!

Thus this time when he went online, he was not in a hurry to add points to his skill. He had decided to save it for the upcoming knight's skill!

Lu Yuan gently knocked on the door of the little wooden house a few times, and a tall man immediately walked out. He looked at Lu Yuan with sharp eyes, “Who are you?”

“Respected Sir Holy Knight, I am your admirer. I want to learn from you how to be an outstanding knight!” Lu Yuan said respectfully to Nick.

“If you want to learn how to be a knight, you can go to the Jinyao Knight's Academy. I can't teach you!” Nick waved his hand as an indication for Lu Yuan to leave.

However, since Lu Yuan came to find Nick, how could he not know how to unlock his mission?

Lu Yuan said slowly, “Respected Lord Nick, it was Miss Kate who asked me to come.”

Kate was the Princess of Jinyao City. Nick was childhood sweethearts with Princess Kate and was the guardian knight of Princess Kate. However, as Nick grew up, his talent as a knight began to show, and he eventually became a Holy Knight. Then, he was ordered by the City Lord to guard the east gates of Jinyao City, thus the number of times they met gradually decreased. However, Nick still respected Princess Kate, even though he was no longer the guardian knight of the Princess!

Sure enough, when Nick heard the name Kate, he changed his words and said, “Since Kate asked you to come, then I need to test your courage and determination on becoming a knight before all else! As long as you dare to go to the Demon Flame Mountain Range to get 88 magic crystals of the fiery tiger for me, then I will agree to be your teacher. If you can't, you should just obediently go to the Jinyao Knight's Academy!”

[Nick has issued a hidden mission to you — obtain 88 fiery tiger magic crystals]

[Mission Rewards]: 2,000 EXP, 100 gold coins, Nick's favorability +100, obtain skill Jinyao Sprint!

[Mission Failure]: Nick's favorability -100!

[Mission Duration]: Three days!

“No problem, respected Lord Nick. I will go and retrieve the fiery tiger magic crystals for you now!” Lu Yuan replied to Nick and directly accepted the mission.

Nick nodded his head in satisfaction when he saw that Lu Yuan was still so calm in the face of his request of 88 fiery tiger magic crystals. This meant that he had passed the courage test.

After receiving the mission, Lu Yuan left Jinyao City and headed to the Devil Flame Mountain Range again. At the same time, Lu Yuan was also anticipating meeting that mysterious woman once again. Such a mysterious existence made Lu Yuan very uneasy.

The territory of the fiery tigers was at the foot of the Demon Flame Mountain Range. In the periphery, most of them were at level 22 or level 23. They were not very difficult to deal with for Lu Yuan.

Just as Lu Yuan summoned Noah's dagger, he heard the sound of fighting coming from not far ahead.. Lu Yuan immediately stopped approaching the Demon Flame Mountain Range.
