Village Chief and Traveler Little Zhou, who was in Crimson Castle shopping for various materials for his fourth farm "Mystery Island," soon received a hidden quest from Sir Murphy.
The initiation of this sequential task named "Mineral Exploration I" was somewhat confusing to Little Zhou, but he quickly made his way to the designated location of the task in Blood Vulture Corridor, right outside the ruins of the Holy Blood Hall, which they had directly confronted Salockdale. Only a wall separated them from the "instance zone" of Blood Vulture Corridor.
Below the four gathering stones stood numerous restless newbies. By the time Little Zhou arrived, over thirty players waiting to form random teams to tackle instances had been conscripted by The Grand Duke of Triss as "temporary miners."
They were joking and laughing as they swung their pickaxes and dug inward, each mining feverishly as if their energy was inexhaustible.
