Chapter 31: The Night Elf Cloak
Yuan Mu bid farewell to Macaron and rented a new camp outside the Traveler's Camp. After arranging his subordinates, he went back to the quartermaster, and by the way, gave him the certificate of authority to recruit the level 3 troops of Knight City.
The quartermaster got the certificate, groaned, and asked, "You also helped kill a level 5/1 necromancer hero, didn't you?" β
"Well, but I killed it along with the Macaron Inquisitor Knight Fredetrika, and the town hall has acknowledged and paid for it."
The quartermaster made up his mind. "The results of the investigation are in. Scott was arrogant and did not listen to dissuasion, and did not wait for reinforcements to arrive before directing the convoy to set off, resulting in the loss of horses and men. You attacked the horse thief camp and saved the convoy, and the mission was well accomplished. And destroying the horse thieves is also a task in the knight's city, and you can get additional rewards. β
"Thank you, the town hall said I could recruit half a squad of level 3 troops for free."
"Specific class recruitment and mount purchases are up to the respective managers." The quartermaster whispered again, "Scott's teacher is the younger brother of a lord, a level 5/4 knight hero, you should pay attention to yourself." β
ββ¦β¦ I'll pay attention, nice to meet you. β
First, he went to recruit half a squad of flame shooters, and Yuan Mu went to choose a mount.
Flame Archer, Sovereign Level 3 Class, Skill Flame Arrow. Ranged unit with decent damage.
"Horses, wildebeests, mountain wolves, etc., these are all normal mounts of level 0-2 that we offer. You can buy a rare mount, there are Earth Walking Dragons, Hissing Wind Beasts, Elite War Horses, and some you can pick yourself, some mounts have a certain combat power and can also help you fight. The mount administrator introduced to Yuan Mu.
"Isn't there anyone who can fly?"
"There are some, but very few, and we don't offer them to buy."
Yuan Mu said to the blood moon that followed: "You can pick one yourself." "All three of his missions are related to mounts.
Blood Moon shook her head, "None of this is what I want. β
Yuan Mu had no choice but to ask the manager: "Is there anything better?" β
The manager hesitated and said, "There are some that have been accumulated for a long time, I can give you some permissions, but you need to add extra money." β
"No problem."
The manager took them to a building in the corner. "It's inside. Shadow Velociraptor, Underground Creature, Tier 3 Rare Mount; Mechanical Crawler, the work of the Mechanic in the west of the continent, a level 4 rare mount, but something went wrong and needed to be repaired by the Mechanic; Blood Wolf, sold to us by the Bounty Hunter, I heard that it was obtained next to the Cold Wave Wastelands, a level 3 rare mount ......"
"That's it." Blood Moon interrupted.
"Then you have to pay attention, the blood wolf is very ferocious, and it is not only the military that will defect."
The Blood Moon stopped talking. Yuan Mu said to the administrator, "Just this blood wolf." "Anyway, he chose it himself, and the first mission of the Blood Moon is completed.
The strength of his subordinates has improved a lot, but Yuan Mu still feels that it is not enough, and comes to the last stop in his heart - the trading hall.
Last time, Yuan Mu didn't have extra gold coins and resources in the Knight City, but this time he gained a lot from the horse thief camp, plus the reward for completing the task, Yuan Mu was already carrying a huge amount of money.
Although it cost a lot of gold to recruit Holy Hammer warriors and priests. But Yuan Mu sold the valuables of the horse thief camp, leaving only some delicate small items, and the gold coins were refilled. The most important thing now is to turn these resources into strength.
The trading hall of Knights City is much larger than that of Glenn City, and you still need to buy tickets to enter the gate. After Yuan Mu entered, he saw that the contents were drooling, but he couldn't afford to consume the best. Calm down and go straight to a merchant who sells barbarian captives.
The merchant also sells a higher level of troops than Glenn City, with the highest level being a level 6 Wasteland Giant, a subspecies of the Giant.
Of course, Yuan Mu, the giant of the wasteland, couldn't afford it, but he saw a particularly large, honest-looking ogre next to him, with a basket on his back.
The merchant introduced: "This is a level 4 ogre mount, he is very docile and has a lot of strength, and his combat power can also reach the standard of level 4 troops. β
Yuan Mu smiled: "There are always shortcomings." β
"The disadvantage is that he eats a lot, and he has to spend gold coins to support him every day, and the average person may not be comfortable to sit."
This ogre is a very ordinary mount, but Yuan Mu used his insight to find that he is more suitable for combat.
This is called Zach? The talent of the Ogre Mount of the Great Stick is the Giant Stick Mastery, which has several skills: Grip of the Giant Stick (after obtaining a weapon, morale increases and combat effectiveness increases), Sweep, and Enrage (when Zack is enraged, the situation will get out of control). And Zach? The Giant Stick also has a high stat value, and the merchant must have had no weapon in his hand when he bought him.
Yuan Mu said: "This ogre mount looks very ordinary, I want to buy a small team of minotaurs." Tausno heard it behind him and laughed.
The boss was a little disappointed, this ogre mount had been pressed on his hands for many days, and he was reluctant to sell it cheaply, but he still changed his smile back to Yuan Mu to choose.
Yuan Mu used his insight to select a small group of level 3 minotaur warriors with good talent and skills or high growth, and said to the boss: "I still want to pick some high-level troops, but I'm afraid that they will run away, is there a peaceful and affordable character?" β
In the end, Yuan Mu bought two more level 4 minotaur warriors, and also bought the ogre mount cheaply. The troops in the market were much more expensive than those in the city's quartermaster's office, and although these captives from the north were cheaper, they also cost Yuan Mu a lot of gold coins.
After strolling around the trading hall again, Yuan Mu found another businessman.
A lot of this merchant's goods are related to aquatic life, and it seems that business is not very good. There is a river to the south of the swamp of Silt Village, and Yuan Mu and Amelia have already discussed that the north side is the territory of Wild Paw Village, and they will try to develop to the south.
Cottage by the pond, architectural blueprints, level 0 building, can recruit Fisherman of the sovereign class 0. The fisherman was of little help in the battle, but Yuan Mu remembered that the bears loved to eat fish, and they bought them and sold them to Wild Claw Village.
Crafting blueprint for a Tier 2 Giant Wooden Ship. The more advanced ones are too expensive, Yuan Mu just wants to transport troops, and shipbuilding requires a dock.
The crew of the boatman is a few people, some materials.
There is also a level 1 treasure drifting bottle with +1 morale. But Yuan Mu used his talent to discover that there was still a task hidden in the drifting bottle.
Monster Path Rescue, find the altar next to Lake ValΓ©li, go to the Monster Path, and rescue the person who sent the distress message. It's an interesting task, with no beginning or end, but you have to find out where the altar is.
Yuan Mu thought that he couldn't spend any more, and he had to keep some gold coins for backup, until he saw a treasure: Night Elf Cloak, level 4 treasure, speed +1, defense +2, assassin class attack +4, and Night Elf favorability increased. Give a squadron of troops night stealth for one night with a cooldown of one week.
The treasure is a level 4/1 warrior hero named Wilma? Wolf head. Yuan Mu walked over directly and said, "I want to buy this treasure." β
"I don't sell, I only change." This hero saw that Yuan Mu was only level 1/level 2, and he didn't have a good face.
"In exchange for what?"
"Warrior and knight treasures of the same level."
The highest-level treasure Yuan Mu obtained was a level 5 Death Horn, but it was on Amelia. If Yuan Mu really took it out and changed it with him, this Night Elf cloak was a sharp weapon for entering and exiting the Wind Fury Canyon, and Yuan Mu must get it.
"Knightly treasures are so popular in Knights City that you can't exchange them. I have a building blueprint for a Tier 2 rare class, and two low-level treasures, and I'll make up for the difference, so are you satisfied? β
Wilma looked at Yuan Mu carefully. "You don't look like an assassin hero, and if you want to buy this treasure, you also value his skills in stealth at night."
Yuan Mu said dissatisfiedly: "You don't have to worry about it." You don't look like an assassin either, and this artifact isn't for you. β
Wilma said, "I'm not a lord, architectural drawings don't play that big role for me, and high-level treasures are not easy to find. β
"Rare class building blueprints are also not easy to find, you can sell them to other lords. If I sell this drawing directly, the profit will not be small, I just need this cloak more. β
Wilma was a little surprised to hear Yuan Mu say so bluntly. After thinking about it, he suddenly said, "I can give you this Night Elf cloak, but you will participate in a battle as a mercenary." β
Yuan Mu returned to the camp and called the robber wizard elite two strong over and asked him to sit on the back of the ogre mount. The second strong was not used to it at first, and after a while, he began to command the ogre Zack to run forward and backward, and Zack didn't know what he said, and cooperated very well to scare those horse thieves.
Although he was tired from a day in Knight City, Yuan Mu was very satisfied, the strength of his subordinates had increased several times, and the combination was very reasonable, there were melee troops, long-range troops, and healing troops.
Yuan Mu plans to leave tomorrow. Valelli Lake Yuan Mu knew that there was a lake in the north of the valley plain, and there was no powerful lord next to it, but he didn't inquire about the news of the water demon altar.
With the mentality of giving it a try, Yuan Mu came to the Traveler's camp to ask, but he didn't expect that someone really knew that it was a player who had done a task on the side.
"The Water Demon Altar is in an inlet, and there is a village next to it, and you can get the sacrificial recipe by completing the village's quests. Then collect some materials around and sacrifice them to get some chests, low-level underwater troops, or underwater potions. This task process is long, and the reward is not very strong, so I did it once and then didn't do it. β
"I was going to go to the lake to see if there were any treasure chests, but I was almost sent back to Knights City for free by the wild creatures in the lake."
After thanking the player, Yuan Mu began to prepare for the next journey. The Siren Altar isn't the final destination with Wilma? The wolf's head agreed to feel the edge of the northeast corner of the valley plain within ten days, near the location of the Skyrim Mountains, near a level 3 city.
Yuan Mu would not return to Knight City anytime soon, and he was going to get the Night Elf Cloak and go straight back to Mud Village along the Skyrim Mountain Range. To this end, it is necessary to buy the necessary items in advance for the development of the silt village.
Come to the Moonlight Thief's station, the Moonlight Thief happens to be there.
"Yuan Mu, you're back, let's go have a drink together." The moonlight thieves were also very happy to see Yuan Mu.
"No, I'm going out of the city tomorrow to do a mission, and I still have things to prepare. I'm here to say goodbye to you. β
"That's right." The Moonlight Thief smiled bitterly, "You, like Ember, are in a hurry, either doing tasks or asking for news. By the way, Ember also went back to the city two days ago, but he went out again, and we mentioned you to him, and he was very interested in you. β
"That's a shame." Yuan Mu still wants to meet this celebrity, "This time I'm going to leave for a long time, and I shouldn't be coming back in a short time." β
