"Master Andoha! I found out that the scout army sent a reconnaissance force composed of thirty-six traveler thieves, and are working hard to find out where the demons are going! But earlier today, about seven traveler thieves ran out of the Temple of the Pluto, and they should have been attacked by the demons on the road!" When Zhao Tiezhu and his friends walked into the blacksmith shop, an indigenous soldier with a wretched smile flashed behind Andoha, who had just left, and he was telling Andoha all the news he knew.
"That's it! Do you think we need to remind the scout regiment of Commander Merli and ask him to send more people to protect the scouts! After all, the power of the demon is not something that low-level thieves can compete with. If there are more people to help, it is probably easier to task, right?" Andoha said to the soldiers beside him with a smile, as if a viper that has accumulated over a year is spitting out his black tongue.
"You are right! These little thieves who can't even master their own strength must need a few helpers. I think the soldiers who walked in just now were very good!" As soon as the soldier finished speaking, he saw Andoha pat his shoulder gently, gave him an encouragement smile and then slowly left. Seeing that beautiful smile, the soldier seemed to have three pounds of bones lighter, he walked towards the place where the scout camp was.
At this time, Zhao Tiezhu, who was inquiring about Habir's weapon upgrade price and materials at the blacksmith shop, suddenly felt a cold wind blowing behind him. The cold feeling made them feel cold even when they were on the edge of the hot iron stove. Several people looked behind him suspiciously, and they frightened Habir, who was bargaining with Su Xinghe, and their beard was trembling. After all, there were too many soldiers dead in the fortress, especially the ghosts that appeared in the air when the Temple of Pluto was established, which made the old dwarf's nerves become fragile.
"Hey! Have you seen something unclean?" The old dwarf Habir looked at Zhao Tiezhu and the others suspiciously. This man would be particularly afraid of death when he was old. Although the old dwarf looked strong, he was almost over six hundred years old. It can be said that his dwarf's lifespan was about to enter his old age, so he would be very scared of things like souls even if he knew more.
"No! I just suddenly felt a little cold!" Su Xinghe naturally knew that the old dwarf was famous for fear of death and ghosts, otherwise he would not have lived to this day. You should know that when the battle was at its most intense, most of the dwarf blacksmiths rushed to the city with weapons, and only Habir hugged his head alone in the blacksmith shop. If Habir was not the only dwarf blacksmith master in the entire fortress, and he was a non-combatant, he would probably be enough for his timid xing to get him back.
Of course, even if Habir can be driven back, the top leaders of the legion would not drive away this treasure. Now there is no one in the entire Zela Fortress, especially the blacksmith who cast weapons. Although there are a large number of players and apprentices to take action, there is still not enough manpower. After all, the player's skills are good at most, but three of ten nails are crooked. The most important fortress lacks enough iron material, and high-level ore is pitifully small. It was originally used to expand the huge warehouse of the fortress city defense system, but now the empty ones can run away mice, so the most task issued by the quarantine officer every day is to collect materials. In addition to stones, he also collects various yào materials and skins, which has become the most important source for players to gain experience in the fortress.
There is also a lack of necessary materials, the price of weapon upgrades in Habir has begun to become one price per day. If there are more materials collected today, more of them will flow out from the military officer. The price of Habir will naturally be slightly lower. However, the higher the level of the weapon, the more you need to cherish the upgrade materials. The precious materials are the smallest in the fortress. Basically, they are used a little less. Therefore, the price of advanced weapons upgrades has never been reduced, but instead it is becoming more and more expensive.
"Old Habir! Can the price be lowered?" Su Xinghe looked at Habir with a bitter face. Now he was worried about not having enough military achievements, but not having enough gold coins. Although Chen Kai put most of the gold coins in Chen Yi, Su Xinghe and the others did not intend to spend too much money to strengthen a few blue-quality weapons, because that was too unprofitable.
"No! The stock of chromium gold has become less and less recently. According to the weight and quality of your weapons, if you want to make them sharp without destroying the strength of the weapons, you can only use chromium gold and purple iron to forge it together. At the current price, I can't lower the price anymore, even if you exchange it with twice the merits!" Habir did not agree to Su Xinghe's request, because he really couldn't agree. Now that the ore metal is extremely nervous, it is impossible to exchange it with merits.
"There is really no way?" Su Xinghe asked unwillingly. To be honest, he really didn't want to use too many gold coins. Since he found that his body began to gradually recover, he began to become cheerful and also began to plan for his future, so he began to save money. After the gold coin exchange ratio in the game began to be fixed, Su Xinghe's assets began to slowly return from negative numbers to positive values. Now, in addition to giving Chen Kai a monthly rent, he can save more than a thousand gold coins, which is not counted as the public funds provided by Chen Kai in the game. Based on the idea of his brothers to settle accounts clearly, Su Xinghe has never wanted to owe Chen Kai too much, so he tried not to use the gold coins provided by Chen Kai as much as possible. He will take the initiative to get it when he has to use it, but he will fill it back immediately after he has the gold coins.
So if Chen Kai and his entire team are a company, then Su Xinghe should be the one who owes the least money to the company. Even if it is the most money, Su Wan owes Chen Kai a lot of debts because she raises a very expensive little flying dragon. As for the one who owes the most money, it is not a few mages, but Chen Kai's sister Chen Yi. In addition to buying various clothes in the game, she also collected a large number of useful and useless accessories. If she lacks money, she can be regarded as the number one spendthrift in the entire team.
However, in order to complete the trial this time, Su Xinghe bit the gold coins reserved by Chen Kai and paid 10,000 gold coins for weapon enhancement fee. The blue giant sword was taken by the dwarf Habir, and then strengthened the sword body and blade with special metal. When the flames slowly converged, a giant sword with a light purple sword blade returned to Su Xinghe's hand.
"The sharp value has been strengthened to 6.7! Although it is not very high, it should be enough!" Su Xinghe frowned. Although the sharp value of the weapon did not reach the entire value of 7, the sharp value of 6.7 is also a very good category. Compared with the sharp value of the gold coins he paid, it is already very cost-effective. In Su Xinghe, Zhao Tiezhu and others all gave their enhanced equipment to Habier one by one, and then presented a large amount of gold coins.
However, when it was Zhao Tiezhu's turn to strengthen, Zhao Tiezhu was depressed because he needed to pay twice as much gold coins and merits as others, and the reason was that his shield consumed more materials.
"No! Old Habier, look at my shield area is not very large. No matter how you look at it, it is almost the same as Old Su's giant sword! Why does he only need 10,000 but I want 20,000!" Zhao Tiezhu looked at Habier who was holding his shield to collect money. The power of the dwarf was undoubtedly revealed at this moment. Even if Zhao Tiezhu had to raise it, it was pinched in his hand very easily by the dwarf and shook it with his two fingers.
"Okay! Big man, lower your head. You know, I'm not good enough and I'm standing upright and talking! Okay, that's how it's right!" Habir happily patted Zhao Tiezhu on the shoulder. His huge strength almost patted Zhao Tiezhu on the ground, and Habir, who looked at Zhao Tiezhu, laughed even happier. No dwarf would not feel uncomfortable with a tall person making a fool of himself. After all, being short is their most depressing place.
"Although your shield is about the same size as his, it consumes more materials than others! There is no way for the temple's standard product to cut corners. This is a good thing that is originally done like this! If you want to strengthen it, you can only spend more money, otherwise the reinforced things would be better than not spend this little money!" The dwarf Habir said to Zhao Tiezhu while pinching the shield, pointing out several weak places on his shield. The seemingly sturdy shield still has several very fragile corners, and you can pinch your fingerprints with just a few pinching. Although this is the result of the terrifying power on the fingers of the dwarf blacksmith master, on the other hand, isn't it because the texture of those places is not hard enough.
"...Okay!" Zhao Tiezhu looked at the pinched finger mark and felt so depressed. After all, this was a shield in a complete set of blue sè equipment. Unexpectedly, this kind of thing would happen. In order to survive better, the money for this shield must be obtained, because Zhao Tiezhu found that the difference between a good shield and a bad shield when using the Earth Shield is very large. Especially when this shield is a standard weapon of the Earth Temple, it has a vague increase in the effect of this kind of magic skill.
When Zhao Tiezhu got his new shield, he felt very worthwhile about the gold coins he paid. Not to mention the increased defense ability, the hidden hardness value of the shield alone reached 7.2. At the same time, the quality of the shield also changed from a high-quality blue quality to a pseudo-holy creation that exudes a single purple light.
"Things are good things! But they are too expensive!" Zhao Tiezhu sighed helplessly at his shriveled purse, increased debt, and the military merit value that he returned to zero again, but his hand holding the shield had never let go. According to him, he was not holding a shield, but it was a gold brick! However, it seemed that gold bricks were not very valuable in the game. Xu Fei and the others had transformed a lot of gold bricks to make magic circles.
"Come on! Don't be good at getting cheap and being good. Your shield almost curled up all our remaining military achievements. If it's still bad, I wrote the word Su upside down. But then again, those people weren't the thief Fei Yun mentioned to be the thief who was on duty with him? Why did he come here?" Su Xinghe looked at Zhao Tiezhu's shield with envy. Although it was just a fake holy product, it took a little bit of the edge of the purple weapon. However, when he saw the thief in front of their tent, his face was a bit strange, especially the one in the lead was the thief with the storm code mentioned by Fei Yun in his private chat.
"Brother! Have you offended someone? Why are you so unlucky?" Razor looked at Su Xinghe with a very sorry face. After all, anyone who had such an unlucky forced mission would be unhappy. However, there are some advantages, at least they no longer have to go to the demons to fight one-on-one, but instead become a group of demons. However, this seemingly death-successful mission still attracted many players stuck in the trial mission. As a result, when Razor and the others set off again, the number of people in the entire team changed from a dozen to fifty, close to the size of half a team.
"Guess?" Su Xinghe looked at the razor with a ferocious face. In fact, he didn't need to guess that he knew that it must be the one who was Andoha. However, he helped Su Xinghe and the others a lot of things. After all, compared to fighting the demons alone, the task of protecting the thieves to the depths of the wilderness is simpler, and the more people the easier it is to do it. So when more than fifty players were doing this task together, everyone had very strong confidence in completing the trial mission. Because none of the entire team was a mediocre player, all of them were level 5 professions, but they were all weapon users and only four were Templar Knights who could release healing magic.
"You don't need to guess that it must be the poisonous snake in Andoha!" Zhao Tiezhu angrily knocked on the shield, and then slapped the demon hunting dog that rushed out from the side and flew backwards. At that moment, players who didn't think much of Zhao Tiezhu and his team had plans to reassess the strength of several people, because the power carried by the shield Zhao Tiezhu, as the Earth Knight, was a bit terrifying, and it actually smashed the demon hunting dog's face and bleeding.
You should know that although the Demon Hunter has the word "Dog", its genus xing is biased towards wolf. The so-called copper-headed, iron-tailed, tofu waist, the wolf's head is very hard, while the Demon Hunter's head is even harder by the wolf's head. However, this hard head was directly hit by Zhao Tiezhu's seemingly understatement of a horizontal stroke, which was not achieved by just skills. It absolutely requires complete suppression of strength to achieve it.
"This strength is too terrifying!" Razor and the demon hunting dog naturally knew the strength of these black skin dogs. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have been bitten back to the fortress. Therefore, he had a deeper understanding of Zhao Tiezhu's combat power. That was definitely not a fifth-level player doing the trial mission, but a master who truly mastered the fifth-level genitals. All players have a very vague idea about the body genitals after the fifth-level genitals, that is, how big is the gap after the trial mission is completed and before the trial mission is completed. After seeing Zhao Tiezhu's shocking slap, Razor had a very intuitive feeling about this gap.
"Crash!" When Razor and others were amazed at Zhao Tiezhu's terrifying power, Su Wan's dragon spear had already taken action in an instant, stabbing in a very simple and unpretentious manner, but the spear tip with chains was just a spear head. The spear tip emitting white light instantly crossed more than five meters of space, directly punching the roaring hunting dog on the ground, and then slowly dragged it back to the team.
"It's dead!" Before Razor came to his senses from Zhao Tiezhu's shocking shield, he found that the demon hunting dog had turned into a dead body on the ground. The speed of killing the enemy was even more fierce than that of Fei Yun holding the terrifying bone knife. Especially the tip of the gun flying out, Razor asked himself that he would never be able to handle this attack without preparation.
"It seems we are in trouble!" Su Xinghe looked up and looked in the distance. There was a huge four-legged demon beast running towards this place. The terrifying size alone made people unable to raise any resistance because it was too big. Just looking at it a few hundred meters away, I felt that the distance between its head and its feet was at least five meters, and this type of monster was not something that players could fight at this stage.
"Retreat! Damn it, how could you meet this guy here? This demon Biss monster is at least a ninth level monster!" The moment Razor saw the huge creature, his eyes almost popped out of his eye sockets. In the wilderness outside the Zera Fortress, there is a monster in the area where the demons are distributed over 30 kilometers. Its terrifying height up to six meters and its nine-meter body length have created its terrifying physical suppression ability. At the same time, the strength of at least ninth level has all players who see it instantly sent back to the fortress.
"Run!" Everyone hated their parents for giving birth to their legs when they summoned the war horse and ran wildly. Even if they summoned the war horse and ran wildly, they felt that the speed was not fast enough. The huge and terrifying creature behind them was like a tank and crushed towards Zhao Tiezhu and his group. The terrifying speed was not proportional to its huge body at all. Everyone felt that they were about to be caught up and trampled.
"Roar~~~~" With the roar of the demon Bis beast, the alluvial fan formed by huge sound waves roared towards Zhao Tiezhu and the others who were running ahead. The terrifying sound made them with the helmet feel a roar in their ears. The lower horse began to soften the footsteps under this terrifying sound. Several players riding intermediate horses could hardly control their horses and let it soften.
"Brother! Run quickly! When I go back, I will feed you good food. If you want to eat wheat, eat wheat. If you want to eat beans, eat beans. Please run quickly!" A player begged to the war horse under him, praying that it could explode at its maximum speed. However, under the pressure of this terrifying monster, the war horses began to sluggishly and could not speed up at all. It was a very lucky thing to be able to run.
Unfortunately, no matter how he urged the war horse, the speed of the war horse could not be raised. Instead, it was because of his whipping that became slower, and the terrifying giant beast behind him became closer. The terrifying aura made people almost suffocate. The unlucky war horses could no longer support themselves and directly chose to foam at the mouth, and then the system instantly forced the pet badge to be recycled.
"Damn! I'm not willing to give up!" This unlucky player became the first victim of this mission. Before he could contact the previous thieves, he was swallowed by the terrifying demon Bis beast in one mouthful. He didn't even have time to scream and disappeared in an instant.
Chapter completed!
