Chapter 42 - 42 Traceless Snow
42 Traceless Snow
Su Ming noticed that the player on the map was getting closer to him.
Yes, he was getting closer and closer. However, according to his route, he should not have seen him on the map.
Because even though he was generally leaning in his own direction, in reality, his path was a bit winding.
In fact, Su Ming even saw him walking around in circles in a forest, clearly lost.
If he could really see him on the map, he would definitely not be like this.
As he thought about it, Su Ming lifted his head and saw a bush in front of him.
He was only about a kilometer away from the player. According to the map, the player was in the bushes.
Moreover, according to the movement trajectory on the mini-map, he was approaching the open space in front of him.
Su Ming thought about it and decided not to go into the bushes. Instead, he took out a book that looked like an ancient book and sat on Da Bai’s back to read it.
In the forest where a gentle breeze blew, the White Tiger stood proudly like a holy beast. The wind gently stroked its fur, and the White Tiger’s eyes were cold and full of majesty.
Such a scene could be called majestic.
On the White Tiger’s back, the young man was handsome and extraordinary, like a person from a painting.
The ancient book in his hand was gently flipped, and the sound of the pages turning and the rustling of the leaves mixed together, making the young man look even more heroic.
As the movement in the bushes grew louder, the youth on the tiger’s back ignored it.
Finally, the bushes in front of him were pushed aside, and a slightly thin figure appeared before Su Ming.
However, when Su Ming lifted his eyes slightly and saw the person before him, he was slightly taken aback.
The person in front of him was a girl, a very beautiful girl with a little tenderness on her face.
To Su Ming’s surprise, the girl who appeared in front of him was also stunned on the spot.
Her small mouth was slightly open, her pair of peach eyes subconsciously widened, and her face was full of disbelief.
She seemed to have suffered a lot on the way here, which led to some wounds on her body.
However, she was not in the mood to pay attention to her own injuries at the moment. Instead, all her attention was focused on the person in front of her.
She did not seem to expect that a person would suddenly appear here, and a person sitting on the tiger’s back.
She could not help but start sizing up Su Ming’s body and Da Bai, who was beneath him.
She could not help but mumble to herself as she sized him up.
“Ye Jie, Ye blade? This person should be an NPC, and he’s quite handsome. Tsk tsk, he’s just a little pretentious, and he’s reading a book.”
The corners of Su Ming’s lips twitched. He put down the book in his hand and looked at the girl.
The ID above the girl’s head was ‘Traceless Snow’.
When Traceless Snow saw this scene, her expression suddenly became a little flustered.
“It’s over, it’s over. He couldn’t have heard what I said, right?”
Su Ming cast her a glance and decided to go along with the girl’s thoughts.
“Hello, human girl, what’s your name? What do you want to do here?”
Traceless Snow was slightly stunned, then a look of relief appeared on his face.
“It really is an NPC. That’s great, that’s great.”
Once she said those words that she thought Su Ming would not hear, Traceless Snow lifted her head and her face was filled with smiles.
“Hello, respected sir, my name is Traceless Snow. You can call me Little Snow.”
“I’m here to see if there are any missions that I can complete.”
Traceless Snow said with a look of anticipation.
She had just entered the game and had not received any rewards other than the novice mission.
This game was not like other games that had a newbie area.
In short, she strolled around this world for two hours and could not find any suitable task.
At that moment, when they saw Su Ming, they naturally treated him as a life-saving straw and wanted to take the mission from him.
When he heard her, Su Ming cast her a glance, but he was deep in thought.
He seemed to be able to give her some missions.
The current Elf Valley was in an important period of development, so she probably would not be able to help with the matters in the valley.
But outside the valley, there really was something he could ask her for help.
As he thought about it, Su Ming nodded.
“Are you willing to help me?”
Upon hearing this, Traceless Snow’s eyes lit up and she nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice.
“I’m super willing to do so!”
Su Ming nodded. If that was the case, then please come with me.
As he spoke, Su Ming walked in the direction of the Orc Tribe.
Before he came here, he even went to the Orc Tribe to take a look.
Although the Orc Tribe no longer pooped and defecated anywhere, their physical quality was still a bit worrying.
If Su Ming were to stay in the Orc Tribe and teach them, it would be a waste of time.
Now that he had caught a player with such modern knowledge, would not he have to give him a good lesson?
At the very least, he would let her go after she had taught these beastmen a lesson.
Su Ming rode on Da Bai in the front, and Traceless Snow followed behind him with a belly full of complaints.
‘What was going on with this NPC? Was there not still a lot of space on the tiger’s back? You would not even let me hitch a ride.’
‘And Yingying did not even tell me what her reward was. The system did not even notify me that I had received a mission.’
Could the person in front of him be a human trafficking triad member?
She had heard that the game was very realistic, and her experience up until now had told her that.
Hence, Traceless Snow would not be surprised if there was another NPC who knew how to buy and sell people.
Just as Traceless Snow was thinking about whether she should find a way to escape…
The ‘NPC’ in front of her suddenly spoke.
“Looking at you, you must be an adventurer. Why did you choose to come here?”
Traceless Snow raised her eyebrows. This NPC’s voice was quite nice to listen to. It was similar to his appearance.
As she thought about it, Traceless Snow spoke again.
“Yes, I’m an adventurer.”
“And the reason why I came here to adventure is mainly that I want to occasionally change my way of life.”
He did not know if it was because they were in the game world and she treated Su Ming as an NPC, but Traceless Snow did not seem to care or guard against him when she spoke.
“In my previous world, everyone seemed to be living with a mask on.”
“I feel that if a person continues to live that kind of life, he will not be himself. So, I think that at least there’s a space where I can happily be myself.”
