Frostwood Village was not big. After a few days, all the villagers knew that the Hunter Team had a new member and accepted Jason·Wood as a new resident. Occasionally, they would even greet him kindly.
Even Ross was recognized by the villagers. However, he never interacted with others and only âwholeheartedly servedâ as Zhou Jingâs followerâhe wasnât very present in the village.
Zhou Jing did not let Ross idle around. His schedule for Ross was packed. Not only did he undergo combat training, but Ross would also learn how to forge from the blacksmiths in the village.
At first, the blacksmith was unwilling, but after interacting with him, he realized that although Ross did not communicate with others, he would silently carry out whatever he was told to do. Only then did the blacksmith reluctantly accept Ross as his blacksmith apprentice⊠Of course, it was mainly because of Zhou Jing.
Overall, the progress of integrating into the village was smoother than Zhou Jing had expected.
On this day, Zhou Jing visited the village chief again and expressed his intention to borrow the only map of Frostwood Village.
The mapâs overview mode on his interface could record the contents of a physical map. If he could unlock the surrounding areas of the map, he would obtain a unique first time achievement.
There were many ways to obtain Astral Points, but the Placement required him to return before he could activate it. When he was descending through the Apostle, obtaining Astral Points was mainly to trigger achievements.
In the past few days, other than training with Barong, Zhou Jing spent the rest of his time following the completion conditions revealed by the [Achievement List]. He was looking for achievements that could be easily triggered in an attempt to earn points.

Although there were many achievements on the list, there was a limit to what could be easily accomplished.
After screening, he took the time to do three daily achievements: [Good-For-Nothing], [Fighter], and [Tired Driver].
The first was to eat until his stomach was so full that it was about to explode. The second was to pull the hunters to practice boxing and defeat everyone ten times. The last was to borrow livestock used for farming from the old farmer at the edge of the field after completing a day of training. The three achievements awarded a total of 250 Astral Points.
The village chief had a deep impression of Zhou Jing and hoped that he would become a Mutant Beast Hunter attached to the village. Naturally, he agreed to lend the map.
The two of them went to the back room. The village took out a yellowed animal skin roll from the cabinet and spread it out on the table.
Zhou Jing took a look at the content, and his face twitched slightly.
Wow, this painting technique⊠itâs like a pre-schooler made it!
However, it was good enough that he had it. At least they knew to make a map.
Shaking his head, Zhou Jing tried his best to identify it.
This was a map of the nearby area. In the middle was a town called White Plains City. There were many subsidiary villages, including Frostwood Village. Frostwood Village was the most remote village on the map.
According to the information he had gathered over the past few days, the Terra Empire was not large, and its administrative divisions were relatively simple. The highest level was the fortress city, followed by the towns, and finally, the villages like Frostwood Village.
White Plains City was equivalent to the âmain cityâ of Frostwood Village, and it was also the center of this area.
[A physical map has been discovered. Do you want to record it?]
[Recording complete. The known area has been refreshed.]
[Remark: If you obtain a map of the same area, you will be able to complement the details and perfect the map.]
[Triggered achievement: First recorded physical map!]
Zhou Jingâs eyes lit up as he looked at the function carefully.
This map radar function could display a map within a certain range and show the individuals in the area in real time. The unknown individuals were marked as red dots, while the ones he knew were displayed in green.
âItâs like a gaming minimap. It should be practical in terms of exploration.â
Zhou Jing nodded to himself⊠However, he could only switch his support functions at the Molding stage. He definitely could not use it now.
With a new reward in hand, coupled with the previous gains, he had 727 Astral Points on hand. He was no longer that desperate for points.

After walking out of the village chiefâs house, Zhou Jing heard a childish voice calling him.
âJason! Jason!â
Zhou Jing turned around.
A boy of about 10 years old ran over in large strides. He looked strong, and his face was red from the cold wind.
The childâs name was Reiner, and he was Griffâs eldest son.
Zhou Jing had been in the village for a few days and mainly interacted with Griff and Barong, so he naturally was acquainted with Griffâs family.
When he saw the kid run over, Zhou Jing quickened his pace without another word.
âWait for me!â Reiner rushed up and blocked Zhou Jing.
Zhou Jing stopped helplessly, âWhat do you want now?â
âI want to hear more about the outside!â Reinerâs face was full of excitement.
âWhat a coincidence. I want to hear about that too.â
Zhou Jing remained impassive.
This kid had never left Frostwood Village and yearned for the outside world.
Since Zhou Jing was a newcomer from outside, Reiner thought that he knew a lot. From time to time, he would pester him with questions, making him feel a little helpless.
âIf you want to know whatâs going on outside, you should pester Barong.â
âI didnât dare⊠In the past, I ran into the forest alone and he beat me up.â
Reiner muttered under his breath, his tone indignant.
âWith Barongâs strength, if he really wanted to hit you, you would have long fallen apartâŠâ
Zhou Jing wondered if he should also beat up a child to set an example.
At this moment, Reiner chuckled. âBut you definitely wonât hit me. Father said that youâre a good person, so you definitely wonât bully me!â
âA good person?â Zhou Jing was a little surprised.
Because of his âopen-mindedness,â Griff respected him quite a bit, but this didnât seem to have anything to do with being a good person. He wondered what Griffâs private evaluation of him actually was.
