10,000x Reward Multiplier: Hell-level Kingdom Building-Chapter 39: [0] Quest Giving Rampage

Floki’s quest-providing rampage began smoothly, and soon everyone in the entire village was engrossed in it.

It was currently afternoon. The scorching sun shone over all sixty people that made up Ironside village, who were gathered at the center of the territory. Their voices were loud as they cheered others and requested quests for themselves.

"Me too! I want to do push-ups and get bigger arms like Uncle Jabba!"

"Wow, look at Uncle Anton. Something about him feels different after completing two hundred squats."

"I tried doing push-ups last night because I couldn’t sleep, and I couldn’t even manage three. My body has already gone weak due to old age. I am certain that in my youth, I would have been able to pull them off easily."

"Chief Floki, please give me a quest too."

Their voices were loud and filled with energy, completely different from last night when everyone was frozen with fear due to the night laughter.

Floki stood in their midst and watched their enthusiasm with a gentle smile on his face.

With this level of readiness in everyone, including the old men and women, it would not be as difficult as he had expected to distribute quests and evolve them.

Thanks to their current enthusiasm as well, none of them had noticed the scroll vanishing after the quest within it was completed.

Out of habit, Floki had already forged a believable lie to explain that magical phenomenon, but thankfully, there was no need to use it now.

’It is also pretty entertaining, to be honest. There is no dull moment with sixty people cheering each other with no hatred in their hearts,’ Floki thought.

When he first arrived in this world and received the hell-level quest, the only force pushing him at that time was the quest itself.

But from last night until now, as his bond with them grew stronger, his motivation to protect them had become more personal and genuine.

"Ahhhh!"

The young boy named Ryik, who had just finished doing ten push-ups, rose from the ground, spread his hands apart, pumped his barely visible muscles, and screamed with his tiny voice, trying to imitate what Anton did last night.

"Haha! Little Ryik is becoming a man."

"Just listen to his tiny puppy scream. How cute. Our Ironside village never lacks beautiful and handsome people."

The praises mostly came from the old women.

Ryik wore a smug smirk on his face as he turned to Little Noah, who in turn responded with a dismissive scoff.

One could clearly see that the two were competitive with one another.

Floki could not help but chuckle as he watched the exchange between his two little followers.

Then he turned to the other villagers, who were already gathering closer around him and demanding that he give them quests.

Since he had made it a routine for only one person to carry out a quest at a time, the people only gathered around him after the previous person was done with theirs. Even the old people with their walking sticks still struggled to get their hands on a quest.

"I am sorry, everyone, but I have run out of quests that include exercises."

Floki announced with a steady and calm voice.

He could hear the dejected sounds from the crowd. Even the children seemed visibly dismayed at the announcement.

"But not to worry, I have more. These ones will not only make you stronger but will also help increase your capability in the field you work in," he announced once more.

"What does that mean?"

"Yes, please explain, Chief Floki."

They were curious, and their curiosity was evident.

"Sure," Floki responded with a gentle smile.

He lifted the stash of scrolls in his hands into the air while looking into their eyes.

"These ones are for the farmers, builders, cooks, and every other important job available in the village," he explained before taking one scroll from the stash and handing it to the old man nearest to him.

The old man was named Old Charleston. He was among the elderly in Ironside who were still quite capable.

"Old Charleston, this quest requires you to weed your farmland for twenty minutes," Floki said. "As a reward, I will give you a brand new hoe."

"A brand new hoe?"

Old Charleston’s eyes widened at the mention of a new working tool. Apparently, his old ones had gone rusty, and he had even been forced to use makeshift tools to work on his farmland.

"Old Charleston would be getting a new hoe. I am envious."

"A new hoe. I have not seen anything like that in over five years."

"Me too."

"Wait... young chief, where are you going to get the hoe from?"

Gradually, the people began to fully understand his words, and questions naturally arose among them.

But this was exactly what Floki was working toward, an opportunity to explain certain things to them so it would not seem strange when many unusual things began to happen in the future.

"Wouldn’t you all love to see how it happens first?" he asked.

For people like them, understanding would come easier after witnessing it themselves.

And as expected, everyone roared in response. They wanted to see how he would give Old Charleston a new hoe.

"Then let us go to the farm and see if Old Charleston is capable of completing this beneficial quest."

"Yes!"

"You can do it, Old Charleston!"

"Let’s go!"

The merriment of the villagers was clear in their loud voices as they all began escorting Old Charleston to his farm.

Jabba, Anton, and Angelina walked behind the others, serving as guards for the group.

Angelina was mostly there to make sure no children sneaked away from the crowd, but her other reason was to get closer to Anton.

The two of them even began to talk with each other as they walked alongside the others, blending naturally into the lively movement of the village.
