Chapter 19: Dolan's Blade
Early the next morning, at the training ground.
Lin Fan stood in the middle of the field in linen shorts and short sleeves, his feet were slightly apart, his legs were slightly bent, his hands crossed in front of his chest from top to bottom, slowly sliding down separately, and then closing his feet together, his hands were closed around his waist, and he exhaled a breath of turbid 7 qi, which is the closing momentum of traditional Taijiquan.
"Morning, boy, boxing again?" Diesel came from a distance and said hello to Lin Fan.
"Yes, uncle, it's okay to get up, exercise and exercise." Lin Fan said with a smile.
Since he developed the Tai Chi technique from the traditional Tai Chi boxing, he is like an old man who exercises in the morning, and every morning after practicing the Tai Chi technique, he has to play the traditional Tai Chi again, because the more he studies it, the more he feels that he has benefited a lot, and there are endless mysteries waiting for him to dig and comprehend.
"Hehe, it's really hard enough, okay, hurry up and take a shower and have breakfast, we're going to leave for the inner city." Diesel laughed.
After Lin Fan took a bath and ate, he came to the training ground and found that Alvina and Diesel were already waiting for him, so he smiled slightly: "Sorry, I've been waiting for a long time, let's go!" ”
The group left the base of the mercenary group and marched towards the inner city together, and it was not long before a tall wall appeared in front of everyone, and it was this tall wall that divided the upper city of Bilgewater in two, outside the wall were civilians or mercenaries who could barely make ends meet through labor, and inside the wall was the territory of rich merchants or powerful gangs and pirate leaders.
The people came to the gate of the city, and after paying some Siren coins, they entered the inside of the city wall.
"Do you have to pay money to enter the city?" Lin Fan was a little puzzled, how could entering a city be like getting on and off the highway on the earth, and still need to pay tolls?
"It was really unnecessary before, but because there were many gangs in the inner city, it was very easy to fight with each other for profit, and it was chaotic, which was not conducive to the development of Bilgewater.
Therefore, after Miss Sarah forced several major forces to sign an armistice agreement, she also stipulated that all forces in the inner city must carry out business activities in the specified area, and they must not cross the border to make trouble without authorization, and the major forces take turns to be responsible for maintaining order in the inner city, but in return, entering the inner city must pay a certain amount of Kraken coins to the forces that maintain order that day, which is generally good for everyone, so everyone is also considered to be obedient. Elvina patiently answered for Lin Fan.
"This female gun's brain is not bad, she has a little ability, but it feels like something is wrong."
Lin Fan muttered, then stopped thinking about it and admired the surrounding environment.
The inner city is worthy of being the richest place in Bilgewater, the streets and alleys are crowded with people, lively and extraordinary, sea beast meat, medicines, weapons and other commodities are dazzling, everything, Lin Fan even found that someone is auctioning beautiful slaves along the street, it is really an illegal place, there is no legal and moral constraints, there is money and strength here, you can have everything.
The procurement task had been assigned before, and after everyone entered the inner city, they scattered and went straight to the location of the task, leaving only Elvina and Lin Fan still standing in place.
"Uh...... What are we going to buy? Lin Fan asked embarrassedly.
Everyone is here to work, and he is the only one who comes to go shopping.
"Go pick a weapon." Alvina replied.
"Don't you have a weapon? Going to change? Lin Fan still remembered the first time they met, and she was holding a dagger in her hand.
"I bought it for you!" Alvina smiled.
"Bought it for me? I won't use it, either? Lin Fan was stunned.
"It doesn't matter, you can use it, your combat style is close combat, and you will suffer a lot if you don't have a weapon, don't rub it off, let's go and see it first!" Alvina smiled and pulled Lin Fan towards the block where weapons were sold.
The two walked down the street, visited one weapon shop after another, and saw all kinds of weapons, Lin Fan was almost dazzled.
"Don't have a favorite yet?" Elvina asked.
"I don't know anything about weapons, how do I choose?" Lin Fan smiled bitterly.
"Hmm...... If you like close combat, I suggest you choose a dagger or short sword, but daggers require a lot of proficiency, so choose a short sword, which is more flexible and not difficult to master. Elvina gave her opinion earnestly.
"Okay, listen to you, then this one! ...... Well? ”
Lin Fan had just picked up a short sword at random and came to the counter to pay the money, when the weapon bar in the Divine Palace suddenly flickered.
He put the short sword he wanted to buy back in its place, and the flicker of the weapon slot stopped, and he picked up the dagger again, but the weapon slot still did not move, and walked to the checkout counter again, and the flicker reappeared.
"It's not the weapon, it's the location." Lin Fan reacted immediately.
"To buy or not to buy? What about teasing me here? The boss looked at Lin Fan angrily.
"I'm sorry, boss, I'll take another look." Lin Fan smiled with a smile on his face.
After carefully turning around the store, under the murderous gaze of the boss, he pulled Elvina out of the store.
"The quality of the weapons and the reputation of this shop are not bad." Elvina looked dazed, not knowing what happened to Lin Fan suddenly.
Lin Fan didn't reply, but walked back and forth, left and right, and finally pulled Alvina in a certain direction, and finally, the two stopped in front of an ordinary stall.
The stalls were set up in a very messy manner, a dirty rag about two meters square, on which were piled up with various items, and all the items looked tattered and bad.
Behind the stall, a bearded middle-aged uncle leaned against the wall, his clothes were also a little dirty, and a black towel in his hand was swaying back and forth, driving away the stuffy air.
"Boss, can I pick and choose?" Lin Fan asked politely.
"Feel free to you! But be careful not to break it, if it is broken, you will have to pay for it! The middle-aged man waved his hand, shook his neckline, and said impatiently.
Lin Fan rummaged through this mess for a long time, and finally found a rusty short sword, and held it in his hand, at this time, the violent flickering of the weapon bar came to an abrupt end, and a red short sword appeared in one of the squares, and some information also appeared in his mind:
——————
Item Name: Dolan's Blade
Item effect: Increase attack power, can slowly absorb the enemy's fighting energy or magic during the battle, and transform it into fighting energy or magic shield, according to the user's own strength, it can resist up to one sixth-order fighter or sixth-level magician skill.
——————
"It's Dolan's Blade?" Lin Fan was calm on the surface, but he was excited in his heart.
According to the background of the alliance game, Dolan's Blade, Dolan's Ring, and Doran's Shield are the most mysterious weapon forging master of Runeterra's famous work, after these three weapons were born, they shocked the entire Runeterra, not to say how good the performance of these three weapons is, but because he used the simplest materials to create high-performance weapons that surpass the properties of the materials themselves, and created a unique forging technique, but unfortunately later Master Dolan disappeared, and there was no news, leaving only the legend of three weapons.
"Boss, how do you sell this sword?" Lin Fan held back his excitement and looked at the middle-aged uncle behind the stall.
"Ten Golden Sirens!" The middle-aged uncle didn't raise his head and replied.
"Ten golden krakens? Why don't you grab it? It's too much for a copper kraken to be broken with this kind of broken copper! Lin Fan, let's go, don't be deceived by him. Elvina heard the middle-aged uncle lion open her mouth and screamed angrily.
It's no wonder she gets angry, you must know that a golden kraken, that is, a gold kraken coin, can be exchanged for a hundred silver krakens, and a silver kraken coin can be exchanged for a hundred copper krakens, the normal price of ordinary weapons ranges from ten to dozens of copper krakens, and the better quality can reach ten or dozens of silver krakens, and more than one gold kraken, not nothing, but those are the works of famous weapon forging masters, you can see it just by looking at the materials, and the broken copper and broken iron in front of you is obviously not in this list, and you dare to ask for ten gold krakens with one mouth, I'm afraid I'm crazy about money.
But Lin Fan's next words made her so angry that she was about to go crazy.
"Boss, I want this sword, Weina, this money will be regarded as my borrowing, and it will be deducted from my share in the future!"
The income obtained by the Cloud Thunder Mercenary Group after hunting sea beasts will be allocated a certain share according to each person's different positions and contributions, although Lin Fan has been hunting sea beasts for more than a month, but it is far from enough for ten golden sea monsters, so he can only ask Elvina to pay in advance.
"Is it a question of who spends the money? I just don't think it's worth it, I don't care about you, huh! Elvina stomped her foot in anger, threw down ten golden sirens and ran away.
"Boss, exactly ten, count them!" Lin Fan reluctantly picked up the Kraken coin and handed it to the boss.
"Young man, do you think it's worth it for ten golden krakens to buy such a broken copper and iron?" The middle-aged uncle finally raised his head and looked at Lin Fan carefully.
"Do you think it's worth it?" Lin Fan smiled slightly and asked rhetorically.
"I don't think it's worth it!" The middle-aged uncle was stunned for a moment, and then replied.
"You don't think it's worth it, it's not worth it if you're there, I think it's worth it, it's worth it to me!" Lin Fan smiled slightly.
"Hehe, that's a good point, I think this is more suitable for you than the broken sword just now!"
The middle-aged uncle took off a ring from his hand that could no longer see the original color and style, and handed it to Lin Fan.
"But I don't have another ten Golden Sirens." Lin Fan smiled bitterly.
How can this still touch porcelain? Now that the weapon slot is quiet, it means that this ring is very ordinary, and he doesn't want to spend this unjust money.
"Don't want money, I'll give it to you, it's rare to meet such a young man, let's go, your little girlfriend seems to be in trouble." The middle-aged uncle saw through Lin Fan's careful thoughts, and he didn't say anything.
"Then thank you uncle!" Lin Fan took the oil-stained ring, stuffed it into his arms before he had time to check it, and ran towards the source of the noise.
"'I think it's worth it', tsk, I didn't expect to be educated by a young man, it's really an interesting person, I should cheer up, I look forward to the opportunity to meet again!"
The middle-aged uncle stood up, patted the dust on his clothes, and left in style, leaving behind the broken copper and iron in that place.
