[Quest: Beast of the Night
Description: A corrupted mana beast appears to have descended from the Eternal Mountains and is now prowling the vicinity of Goldenveil. It will kill merchants, travelers, and hunters who come near the settlement.
Reward: 5x Premium Gacha Tickets, 15x Common Gacha Tickets, 100% XP
Warning: Goldenveil will not receive merchants or Pops while the beast lives.]
Ethan's eyes widened as the system notification appeared before him, nearly causing him to spit out the water he was drinking.
It wasn't the description that caught his attention, nor the XP, nor the tickets.
What completely consumed his thoughts was the final line: the beast would kill merchants and travelers who approached.
In practice, this meant one thing: if the creature remained alive, they wouldn't receive the expected merchant's visit in two months, and worse yet, no new citizens would arrive in Goldenveil.
