Ning had to fight through 30 Grasshoppers before he found his first rabbit.
Even then, when he did kill it, he only got 2 Rabbit Ears, and 3 Rabbit meat.
He fought through another 3 dozen Grasshoppers before he found another Rabbit, defeating which gave him a single Rabbit's Foot, and an observer stone.
Finally, he fought many Grasshoppers again and managed to find another rabbit that gave him the Rabbit Skin he needed.
When he was done, Ning checked his profile again.

"Hmm, I should quickly return and come back with a new quest," Ning thought and returned to the city.
Once he gave back the items, the quest was completed, and Ning went to a different shop and asked around if anyone needed any help.
A few of them asked, but Ning refused as they all either wanted ingredients related to the rabbit or the worm.
He hadn't even seen a worm until now. There was no way he would take such a bad quest.
In the end, Ning finally found a quest in a tavern where they wanted Grasshopper Eyes for making soup, so he accepted the quest and returned back outside the city.
His Fireball dealt 60 damage, and his normal attacks dealt about 35 damage on average. With this much damage, he could easily defeat any monsters he came across and was thus able to speed his way through the levels.
He didn't know how long he had fought for, but Ning kept fighting as long as it took to complete the quest and then returned.
Then he took the quest again and returned.
Some hours later, Ning finally finished all the quests and killed enough beasts to reach level 10.
[DING!]
[You have reached level 10.]
[A Class Quest has been generated.]
[Quest: Help the bartender
At the Bar of Malevolence, the customers are rowdy and refuse to leave. Ask the bartender what you can do for them and help them.
Reward: You will get your class quest.]
Ning paused in his path and looked at the notification. How long has it been? The forever dark sky gave no hint of time passing and with the stars ever so still, Ning had no way of telling at all.
"Is that the bar where we get our classes?" he wondered. "If that is the case, then it should be at the center of the city."
With that in mind, Ning left to get his class. Along the way, he put in the rest of the free stats he had in preparation for the quest.
A while later, Ning arrived at a massive building built entirely on black rock and obsidian-like crystalline objects.
Ning walked into a room lit up only by the lava that flowed through the room. He saw many demons being rowdy, drinking from stone jugs liquid that seemed to corrode as it slid down their throat.
Some demons played at the side, shouting at each other when one of them did anything seem out of line.
Many Succubi walked around the room, working as waiters, and were regularly harassed by the demons. In return, the succubus would jam her pointy tail into the eye of the demon.
To say the scene in front of Ning was a chaotic mess would be an understatement.
Ning ignored what he could, and for what he could not, he avoided it. He walked forward to the bar where multiple players were already getting a class.
Ning saw BIG GUNS get a quest and quickly run over to one of the tables. Then, he too got in line and waited.
He heard the players ask if he could help them, but he couldn't hear what the bartender said in return.
After a while, it was Ning's turn. So, he walked up to the bartender and asked, "Do you need any help?"
The bartender, a 3 meters tall demon with two yellow horns coming out of his head, looked at Ning for a moment and spoke something.
Ning could not hear what he said at all, but a quest appeared nonetheless.
[DING!]
[You have received your class quest.]
[Persuade Borgir to leave the bar the best you can.
Reward: You can enter the Hall of Evaluation.]
"Borgir?" Ning was surprised that he instinctively knew where to look. Rather, his game body was moving on its own as it turned to look at the demon with the silver spikes on its shoulder, like bones coming out of his body.
The name 'Borgir' floated on top of the demon and Ning walked towards the demon.
At the table he was on, the demons there were playing cards. So, when Ning arrived, they stopped playing and looked at him.
"Your name is Borgir, right?" Ning asked.
"Who are you?" Virgil asked. Up close, Borgir looked massive, nearly as big as the bartender.
Ning secretly took out an Observer stone and tested it to see if it would work.
When he used it, it worked and he saw the Demon's stat.
[Borgir (NPC):
Level: 26
Race: Demon
STR: 96
INT: 49
VIT: 84
AGI: 58
DEF: 89]
'What the fuck?!" Ning nearly shouted in surprise. There was no way he could force a man like this out of the bar by using force. This was a scary demon.
'Does everyone have to send a demon like this one out?' Ning wondered. He looked around and saw that BIG GUNS was already taking his demon out.
"A Hellcat ate your tongue?" Borgir asked and suddenly stood up. "Why did you disturb my game?"
Borgir easily towered over Ning and nearly induced fear status into him.
Ning frowned and looked around to think of something to say, but what?
Just then, he saw the cards on the table and an idea came to him. He stood his ground against the demon, looked him in the eye, and said what he wanted to say.
