Chapter 36 Everyday Life

Torbana is a small town, far from the Beginning, but more prosperous than any other village or town, as can be seen from the two guards outside the arched gates, not to mention the two-and-a-half-meter-high walls that stand on the perimeter of Torbana.

Wang Yang walked into the street from the city gate, and the background music played by an ensemble of multiple instruments immediately sounded in his ears, a little excited, mixed with a faint melancholy, like the music that is difficult to give up when leaving his hometown.

Background music, which is consistent in online games, has been carried over to the first "SAO" to implement full stealth, and players are used to it, and even background music played by NPCs can be canceled by setting, but most players will not do such a sparkling thing.

Wang Yang, who had just come out of the lake and marsh area, was attracted by the passionate and sad music, so he stood in front of a house not far from the city gate, turned up the volume to the maximum, and closed his eyes to listen.

The change of the music is only about three minutes, and then it is a monotonous loop, Wang Yang slowly opens his eyes, sighs inexplicably, and then turns the volume up to the extent that it does not affect the daily conversation, and then continues to walk down the street.

The crowd of people coming and going is generally players, except for a certain period of time, there are actually very few NPCs who can walk freely, merging into the crowd, Wang Yang walked silently, according to the convention, the first goal of entering the city is to go to the blacksmith shop to repair the durability of equipment.

After walking for about five minutes, Wang Yang followed the map directions to the only blacksmith shop in Torbana.

The blacksmith shop in front of him looks quite imposing from the outside, but when Wang Yang entered the blacksmith shop, he found that the well-decorated blacksmith shop was actually empty, and there were only two NPCs inside, one of which could provide the same function to the player as the blacksmith NPC located in the town of start, without any changes, and the other was an NPC peddling weapons, the weapons peddled were all weapons with refining as the prefix, the equipment level was level 10, but the basic attack was not low, It's higher than some weapons that are exploded by hunting monsters, but there are still very few people who choose the weapons sold by the blacksmith as the main weapon, and the fundamental reason is that the weapons sold by the blacksmith are only enhanced three times, and there is no bonus to the attributes, which is commonly known as tabula rasa weapons.

However, compared to the stronghold villages in the Limnar area, the weapons peddled by the Torbana NPCs have gone up a notch, and the attack bonus is not low, and it can indeed be used as a choice to some extent.

Of course, only those who are unlucky will have no choice but to choose the weapons sold by the NPC, otherwise most players will just use the weapons sold by the NPC as a replacement weapon, after all, the weapons obtained by hunting monsters and opening treasure chests are better than the weapons sold in the store.

It's just that the way to open the treasure chest is basically not related to mainstream players, because similar rare means of profit are basically swept away by lone players who are in the front, which is also one of the reasons why mainstream players hate closed beta players, even if the free guide book provided by Argo at the beginning remarks that the closed beta provider provided, it is difficult to greatly reduce this phenomenon.

Weapons are a problem that most players have to worry about, because it affects many aspects, and Wang Yang doesn't have to bother at all, because there is no need to think about changing weapons in a short period of time, this rare level of wind flower sword in his hand has a high attack bonus, and the additional attribute values are also very good, and even has a passive effect of causing negative buffs to the enemy, which can be the best weapon among the players at present, and Wang Yang, who holds this weapon, does not need to consider replacing weapons at all in the floors within five floors, And you can use up the number of enhancements without any scruples.

After spending nearly a thousand Keer from the topless blacksmith uncle, he repaired the set of equipment that could be eliminated, and after that, Wang Yang walked to the NPC who was peddling weapons, leaving a replacement weapon, and then sold other unwanted weapons to NPCs, and got nearly a thousand Kele, which was the same as the Keer cost to repair.

I have to say that the recovery price of NPCs is really cheating, four weapons with bonus attributes are only sold for a full 1,000 kels, and the level 10 refining weapons sold are only 1,000 kels.

If it weren't for the fact that there were still a lot of players in the blacksmith shop, Wang Yang really wanted to burst out a foul word to the NPC in front of him, if it weren't for the fact that there were almost no players who chose the merchant profession at the moment, Wang Yang would not have sold the hard-won weapons to NPCs at a low price.

When he was in the lake and marsh area, Wang Yang thought about selling weapons with good attributes to players, which is better than selling them to NPCs at a low price, but "SAO" is not like ordinary online games, you can trade freely, there is only the option to transfer the ownership of the item to others, in the absence of basic trust, the player who sells the props will not deliver the goods first and then collect the money, and the person who buys the props will not pay the money first and then receive the goods.

Wang Yang is naturally no exception, he has experienced many baptisms of online games, and if he wants not to be deceived, he can only focus on his own interests at all times, and this situation requires the existence of businessmen.

Only the Merchant's own skill "Barter" can open the trading interface between players and make a transaction that does not require a crisis of trust, while the merchant only needs to charge a certain fee.

However, there are very few classes that choose to be a merchant, and none of these players who choose a merchant have yet to learn the "barter", not only the merchant, but also other life classes will take a long time to improve their proficiency in the initial period before they can learn profitable skills.

Due to the lack of means of trading, and the players generally encountered are unwilling to pay money before things, so Wang Yang finally gave up the plan to sell the weapon to the player, originally he wanted to hoard the weapon first, and then sell it when the merchant with learned skills appeared, after all, the inventory can accommodate a hundred positions, and there is no need to worry about the situation that the position is not sufficient, but when Wang Yang hoarded nearly five weapons, he found out how naïve this idea is, because the weight of the props will affect the position that can be accommodated, In addition to the large number of other items, plus the heaviest type of weapon, just five can drastically shrink the slot.

Full of indignation at the black-hearted NPC, Wang Yang walked out of the blacksmith shop and then went straight to the restaurant. This is the second goal of entering the city, to taste the delicious food sold at each of the strongholds.
