As Xie Feng advanced towards the central square of the Novice Village he decided to see the loot he got from his adventure.
When Xie Feng opened his inventory, the first thing he noticed was that he now had money. Because he had previously spent 16 gold coins to identify 3 objects he had run out of gold. However, the Guardian of Hell dropped a huge amount of 150 gold coins.
It may not be much when the currency exchange is opened by the World Central Bank, but at this stage of the game, 150 gold coins is a huge amount of money.
[Armor of the Guardian]

[Properties: Not identified. Cannot be used]
.
[Rigid Leg Protector]
[Grade: Silver]
[Equipment requirements: Level 25]
[Properties: Not identified. Cannot be used]
.
[Sword of flames]
[Grade: Gold]
[Equipment requirements: Level 25]
[Properties: Not identified. Cannot be used]
Seeing the objects, Xie Feng patted his forehead when he realized something.
Since the Guardian of Hell was a level 25 monster, the objects that fell when he was killed naturally would also be level 25. Because Xie Feng was on constant alert, he didn't have time to think about it.
Even when he disconnected and reconnected hours later he was very close to death, so it is natural that he does not have the ability to divide his thoughts into something unimportant.
Still, he can make a theory about the sword because of its name. From Xie Feng's point of view, this sword must surely be the sword of the Guardian of Hell.
After seeing the 3 items, he turned his attention to the two scrolls.
[Teleportation map: After tearing you can teleport to the Guardian of Hell room and challenge him without having to fight in the previous two stages].
[Wind Steps Scroll: A scroll obtained after defeating the one who received Lucifer's blessing. Skill (Passive): Increases movement speed +10 points].
Seeing the sticker that increases the speed of movement, Xie Feng was incredibly happy. It may seem that 10 points is not enough, but considering the fact that it is a passive skill, that is, it does not consume MP and will accompany the player all the way, it is a very powerful skill.
Suddenly, however, Xie Feng noticed something that stunned him as he looked at the black scroll.
"This is...-". Before Xie Feng can say anything else, an announcement from the system rings in his ears.
[Ding!... Congratulations! You have found your way back to Beginner's Village number 666]
[Mission Update]:
[Grade of mission: SS Hidden Mission]
[Mission delivered by: Xiao Lei]
[Mission Objective 1: Reach the 20th floor of Samsara Heaven (Incomplete)]
[Mission Objective 2: Find the Purity Crystal (Incomplete)]
[Mission Objective 3: Find a way back to Beginner's Village 666 (Complete)]
Hearing the announcement of the system and seeing the update on the mission objectives, the corner of Xie Feng's mouth contracted several times.
He is not so foolish to get happy easily, as he understands what this means. Basically, the system is telling him:
'If you want to go back, go and defeat Lucifer'.
That is a God-grade beast!
Even as he sighed to himself, Xie Feng shook his head and continued to move forward without hesitation.
Didn't he promise himself to come back and defeat Lucifer? Since when does he run away like a coward? He will come back and fulfill his promise, definitely.

"You... you...". These were the words of the Guardian of the Village when he saw Xie Feng walking towards him. The Guardian looked at the title floating above Xie Feng's head with his eyes wide open, unbelieving what he was seeing.
"Sr. Guardian, it seems that I succeeded in overcoming the despair mode". Said Xie Feng with a slight smile on his face. He was naturally proud of his achievement. If he could use his real-world strength, he believed that he could defeat the Guardian of Hell without any problems.
Unfortunately, the equipment and skills he currently possesses limit him greatly.
"You really... succeeded". The Guardian of the Village sighed. After a while, the old man looked up at the sky with watery eyes and said nothing for a long time.
Xie Feng didn't interrupt him either and waited. Only after several minutes, the Guardian of the Village slowly spoke again: "Young hero... No, perhaps it is more correct to call you Creator of Myths. Do you know where the Beginner's Village is located?".
Xie Feng frowned slightly and thought for a moment. He looked at the map of the Adastreia Continent previously and, although 90% of the map is marked as unexplored for obvious reasons, the important parts are marked.
For example, main cities, surrounding towns, stores, etc. However, he did not see any of the Beginner's Villages on the map.
Therefore, Xie Feng shook his head indicating that he does not know.
Seeing this, the Guardian of the Village did not seem surprised and simply nodded as he continued: "Hundreds of thousands of years ago, a different race was born on the Adastreia Continent. This race was no different from the rest of humans in the beginning, but as time passed, the differences began to become too obvious. Sudden mood swings, explosive anger and the most noticeable difference was that, by using their magic element, a pair of horns grew above their heads.
This race began to be pursued and killed by the army of the 4 main cities and the Imperial City. At first, they did not attack and just fled, but as time went by they began not only to defend themselves, but also to attack. They not only attacked and killed the soldiers of the human army, they also attacked villages and massacred innocent people. This is how the war between the Moon Devil Clan and the humans of the Adastreia Continent began".
The Guardian of the Village stopped for a moment to see Xie Feng's reaction, but seeing no sign of emotion on his face, he continued:
"Thousands of years ago, the Goddess of Creation, that is, the protective goddess of the Continent Adastreia joined the war and strongly repressed the Moon Devil Clan. In those days, the force of the Goddess of Creation was in the Holy range, so there was nobody in the Moon Devil Clan that could stop her.
The twelve Demon Protectors united to fight the Goddess of Creation and, although they could not defeat her, they were able to obstruct her while the demon army suppressed mankind again.
It was then that the five heroes appeared. The 5 heroes were human beings with a strength extremely close to the rank of God, so even though they were weaker than the twelve Demon Protectors, none of the heroes had a problem fighting them for a certain period of time. After several centuries of war and death, eight of the twelve Demon Protectors were defeated and killed by the Goddess of Creation and the heroes. Naturally, the cost was not low. Three heroes died and just as the Goddess of Creation was about to end this war, giving victory to mankind, that person appeared".
At this point, the Guardian of the Village had a look of surprise on his face, as if he were telling something hard to believe:
"A strange woman appeared in the middle of the war and stood between the two sides. She said only one word; 'Stop'. The weakened Lunar Devil Clan, naturally do not reject her words, but mankind who had suffered billions of deaths after countless years and had victory in their hands, naturally were not willing to stop.
The two remaining heroes fought against this woman, but were defeated with a single punch. Then, the Goddess of Creation also fought against her and the result...
She too was defeated with a single strike!".
"What? How is that possible?". Xie Feng shouted in incredulity.
"Sr. Guardian, how is it possible that an existence on the top of the world, a being with a Holy rank force is defeated in one strike?". Xie Feng asked, not believing what he had just heard. But this reaction is normal, after all, the strength of a Saint is the absolute top.
But was a Saint defeated in one strike?
