"What are you doing, why are you here so late?"

In the box on the second floor of the Shadow and Pit Viper Bar, I looked depressedly at the three people who had made me wait for a long time.

"Hehe~~~ It's nothing, I'm busy moving, so I'm late." The little fat man seemed to be relaxed, but in fact said triumphantly.

Uproot? I looked at the commandment, and the little fat man couldn't hold it back, "Come and ask me, come and ask me, I'm waiting for you to ask me!" Expression. Then he turned his head and asked Yichen: "Has the player store moved?" ”

"Hmm." Yichen also couldn't hide his joy: "Two nights ago, wasn't the original fourth family wiped out?" They set fire to their official mansion and put more than half of the attack troops of the first family into it, and the first family had no time to take care of the aftermath, so we picked up a big bargain. ”

"Scared! Take advantage of the first family? What he said startled me.

"Well, it's actually not taking advantage of the first family." Yichen thought for a while and said, "Do you know the situation of the business clan?" ”

"I don't know!" I answered with confidence.

"Well, compared to the aristocratic family, the commercial clan is indeed not valued, but it is also an important institution in the family that is extremely organized. Generally, a noble family will be affiliated with at least one merchant clan. Most of the members of the merchant clan are dark elf civilians, and they are generally led by male high-level mages in the family......"

"Wait...... Male leadership? I intercepted Yichen's words and asked strangely, "How can it be a male leader?" In terms of the social relationship between the female superiority of the dark elves and the inferiority of men, such an important position should be occupied by women! ”

"Uh...... No, in fact, as I said earlier, business clans are not taken seriously. You should know that in Demon Blade City, despite the family system, it is the priests who actually hold the power, and the priests use the ......" Yichen to ring the thumb and index finger of both hands, and spread out the other six fingers, posing in a spider-like shape. “…… In the name of taking what you want, that is, you are used to taking things without giving money. Artisans or merchants who have no background will be exploited by many parties, and eventually they will go bankrupt and become slaves. The merchant clans were slightly better, at least the priests of the other families did not overdo it with the power of the noble families to which they belonged, but the priests of the same family only regarded them as objects of grabbing...... So, dealing with 'meaningless' transactions or dangerous deals with outsiders is definitely a man's job. ”

"That's right." Yichen's explanation sounded reasonable, and I nodded.

“…… As for the periphery of the merchant clan, a large part of the members are of various races other than the dark elves......" Yichen paused here as he spoke, and took a sip of the wine glass on the table in front of him.

Cut, this guy is selling off again!

"Well, if a noble family is wiped out, what will happen to the commercial clan under its command?" I also guessed one or two, but I didn't quite understand it yet, so I could only ask according to Yichen's hope.

"Generally speaking, you will go straight to the winner."

"Oh, it's time to find a new master's home. Well, in general...... Don't...... You guys...... Took over a business clan? ”

"Damn! Can you not react so quickly! It's so boring to talk to you. "The three sluts coaxed together.

After a bit of laughter, the bounty hunter clarified that it was not an entire merchant clan that was being received, but only a portion of the periphery.

"Hmm." Yichen scratched his head and said, "I just wanted to try, but I didn't think it would be possible." But the gray dwarves seem to be very loyal...... Isn't that weird...... However, they really did not want to take refuge in the victor who destroyed the original main family, that is, the first family. I was worried that the other families would not be willing to take them in for fear of offending the first family, so I fooled them. ”

"Well, by the way, I also received a large sum of supplies, and a workshop with a shop front. We moved the headquarters of the 'Player Store' to the past, although the location is more remote, but the advantage is that the space is large enough, hehe~ Finally, I don't have to hide in that cramped and dirty old store all the time. He added with a smile.

Grey Dwarf...... Loyalty? It's strange indeed! The grey dwarves have very different personalities from their cousins, the dwarves, and are not as treacherous and sinister as the dark elves, but not much worse, and I doubt that their language has words that express a similar meaning of loyalty. But...... If it was the gray dwarves under the command of the original Star Zero family, maybe it would be different?

Regardless of this for now, I will put out the items I obtained from the first family's martial arts master, and let Yichen and the Commandment identify them.

+5 Mithril Breastplate. Although it doesn't have any special magical qualities, the +5 magic enhancement bonus is more than enough to prove its preciousness...... Just changed my outfit and booked it first.

Dark Elf Boots, which move quietly when worn, almost add 10 levels of stealth skill to the wearer...... It was the same as what I was wearing on my feet, so I gave it to the bounty hunters.

A pair of thin, elastic leather gloves that give the wearer +6 Boost to their agility...... The Bounty Hunter already has a pair of +2 Ogre Gauntlets of Great Force, so let me take them.

A gold disc placed on a gold chain with the image of a lion on it, is a health amulet that grants the wearer's Constitution +6 Enhancement Bonus. Well, anyway, I had the "Biomimicry" ability that boosted my constitution, so I gave it to the person who needed it most, the only warrior bounty hunter.

An inconspicuous black ring allows the wearer to have a strong hand, as if they had reflex dodge, which means that they can dodge range attacks more effectively...... This, hum~ It's clear that it's for high-sensitivity characters, but I'm disrespectful.

The blade with the dark red blood-stained pattern was identified as a +3 high-grade blood-light adamantite shortsword, which was an upgraded version of the blood-light trait, and the hit creature would take more damage over time, but nothing else was different. However, it still made the bounty hunter angry, holding it in his hand and looking it upside down, and constantly sighing: "Why is it a short sword, do you want to replace my +1 blood light essence gold long sword?" ”

Yichen and Jiejie saw that they couldn't get anything, so they complained and slacked off. Unfortunately, these items obtained from the First Family's Martial Arts Master are more suitable for hand-to-hand combat melee classes. I had to give them the psionic items I had identified.

The Stomping Boots obtained can use "Stomping" three times a day, knocking over opponents with a fan of shockwaves that spread across the ground. If he, the mage, was approached, he could use this to hinder his opponent a little; In addition, he was given a complacency ring and a stability ring, and the "self-hypnosis" and "self-stabilization" skills granted by those two rings were not something that non-psionic characters could learn. Self-hypnosis is a useful skill that is effective in resisting fear and toxins, being able to memorize information that is particularly difficult to remember, and so on. Self-stabilization skills keep you awake when you take a fatal injury, rather than being stunned.

Skating boots that allow the wearer to slide on even rough ground like on the ice are perfect for Yichen, a slippery head that will run away when the situation is not good. The "Focus" skill has no effect on the hand-to-hand class, but it is the most important skill for the caster class, and it is related to the success of the mage's concentrated casting. Because Yichen's physique is weak, which has a negative impact on the "Focus" skill, the Focus Forehead Eye that increased the level 10 "Focus" skill was given to him, because Yichen already wore a force field shield ring on one hand, so he only gave him a complacency ring.

The other remaining Stability Ring thought about it and handed it to the Bounty Hunter. He happened to have a hand missing a ring anyway.

The last thing to be identified is the scimitar of the first family's martial arts chief, after listening to my account of witnessing its power, although half of the people present do not know how to use scimitar at all, and the other half are not very good at it, but they are still full of expectations for the appraisal results, and the bounty hunter even left behind the +3 high-grade blood light essence gold short sword that he had decided to change before, and threatened that if this scimitar is really as iron as I said, invincible, it is not impossible to practice scimitar for it.

"Ahh......h

"How?" Everyone asked anxiously.

"Really...... Too...... Too...... It's too ~~~ against the sky! ”
