Chapter 47: You're Not Human?
"Who does he care? It can't be mine anyway, so I'd better hurry up on my business! ”
Mu Chen lowered his head and muttered alone for a while, then turned around and ran in the direction of the grocery store. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
He's going to buy a skinning knife.,The knife he bought last time was sold to the novice blacksmith uncle because of the problem of the package space.,Now it's taking advantage of the package space to expand by 50 squares.,Just collect all the monster corpses in the package into materials.,And then exchange it for money to exchange equipment.。
The grocery store was located in Xicheng District, opposite Beicheng District, so it didn't take long for Mu Chen to find the location of the grocery store.
The owner of this [Ah Ling Grocery Store] is a thirty or forty-year-old aunt, who is sitting at the counter next to the door of the store, holding a wooden abacus and a worn-out account book.
Maybe it's because the calculation is more serious, even if there are people in the store, they don't notice it much, but fortunately, the items sold in the store are protected by a layer of white transparent light curtain, and the setting here is a bit like the glass window in a real-world jewelry store, and outsiders can only enjoy and view the properties of the items in the light curtain through the outside air.
Mu Chen saw that the grocery store proprietress was serious, so he didn't bother, but walked to the edge of the light curtain window and looked at it slowly.
"Huh? Return axis? There is no grocery store in the novice village of this thing! ”
Mu Chen didn't take a few steps before he saw a new item that was not available in the grocery store in the Novice Village, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised and said to himself.
Of course, in addition to this return axis, there are many other strange objects.

Under the white transparent window, in addition to the defense stone, there are also acceleration stones, power stones, intelligence stones and other attribute stones.
The attributes they hold are basically the same as those of the defense stones, all of which are first-level materials plus a little attribute value.
"Boss, give me a skinning knife, an experience storage ball, two return axes, and that mysterious fragment too!"
After Mu Chen lowered his head and pondered for a while, he turned his head sideways and called out to the proprietress who was settling accounts at the door.
Choosing to buy a skinning knife is the initial purpose of Mu Chen's entry into the grocery store, and buying the experience storage ball and the return shaft is an unexpected bonus! As for the last mysterious fragment, it was entirely Mu Chen's personal hobby of collecting.
Whether in the game world or the real world, Mu Chen is a collector, and in the real world, his favorite collection is all kinds of exquisite peripheral items related to games and animations, such as commemorative coins! Figurines! Or he will carefully treasure the characteristic paper, because he can find a trace of interest and happiness in it.
In the game, his favorite collection is all kinds of mysterious items with unknown functions, because they are full of unknowns, maybe he will encounter them that day!
"Huh? Hello, I'm so sorry I didn't notice you when I was busy settling accounts! ”
Hearing the voice, the grocery store proprietress found out that there were customers in the store at this time, and quickly put down the abacus in her hand, stood up and said with an apologetic and apologetic smile.
"Hehe, it's okay, I don't have the eyesight to disturb the boss lady to settle the account, I'm in a bit of a hurry here, so please forgive me!" Mu Chen replied modestly with a smile.
Although Mu Chen does not have many contacts with people in reality and never takes the initiative to communicate with people, this does not mean that he does not know how to communicate with people.
In the real world, the iceberg face he revealed to people was just a disguise for him to outsiders, and his inner world had long since become black and white, and there was really nothing to be happy about.
Compared with the plain and lonely in the real world, he prefers the big right and wrong killing in the game world, as the so-called: a sentence that does not match the sword, killing is the only place in his heart to release his grief and anger.
"The guest officer is serious, come, this is your skinning knife 15 copper, two return shafts 20 silver, an experience storage ball 10 silver, a mysterious fragment 1 gold, total, 1 gold 30 silver and 15 copper."
The grocery store owner took out the opinion item from the light curtain window, and broke out a price, and finally gave Mu Chen a total price.
"Well, boss, do you know what this mysterious fragment is?"
Mu Chen asked casually while taking out the money.
"That's what you say! I don't know about this, this piece is still sold to me when a mercenary bought something from me in the past, and I bought it when I saw the novelty, and then I found a lot of wise people, and they didn't know the origin of this thing, so I took it out and sold it. ”
The proprietress picked up the mysterious fragment and shook her head with a look of distress, indicating that she didn't know the origin of this thing.
"Okay, if the boss has any strange things here that can be left to me in the future, I like to collect these things full of unknowns and mysteries, hehe."
After the transaction was completed, Mu Chen put the purchased things into his personal package and said with a smile to the grocery store proprietress.
"Oh, the guest likes to collect these things, too? I do have a lot of these things in my warehouse, but I have found many wise people who have not seen through the mystery. ”
Hearing Mu Chen's interest, the grocery store proprietress couldn't help but look up at Mu Chen again in surprise, and finally showed a more interested expression and said.
"Oh, do you sell these things, lady?"
Mu Chen didn't expect that he had inadvertently asked casually before leaving, and he really got a bit of an unexpected gain.
"These things don't sell, but they ......"
The grocery store proprietress had some words, as if she was deliberately trying to arouse Mu Chen's curiosity.
"But what?"
Although I feel that the proprietress has some deliberately guided elements, Mu Chen does have an impulsive curiosity for those mysterious and unknown things.
There are two reasons for Mu Chen's desire, one is his wildness, he likes to control the overall situation and know it clearly, even if he dies, he will die clearly.
The second is that this game is a little different from previous games, there are too many secrets in this game, and he still clearly remembers the secret of immortality that the black-robed mysterious man said when he established the game character, and every time he thinks of this, he feels that there is a pair of ruthless and indifferent eyes in the sky looking down on the entire game world.
This feeling is something he doesn't like, so it forces him to like collecting and studying these mysterious objects even more.
"But what! I can lend you these things to study, but there is one condition. ”
The grocery store proprietress stretched out a finger to Mu Chen and began to sell Guan Zi again.
"On what terms?"
"The condition is that you will share all the truth of the results you have explored with me, after all, the things are mine, and I have the right to enjoy the final truth."
“……”
Mu Chen didn't speak, because at this moment, he felt a little trembling in his heart.
"This woman has a background!" This is the result summed up in Mu Chen's heart at this time.
"Well, otherwise, how about you join my forces, and we sign a good faith contract with each other?"
Mu Chen hesitated for a long time, feeling that this was indeed a channel to understand the truth of the game, after all, NPCs have been living here for generations, and their understanding of this world must be much clearer than that of him, a player.
"Your power? Are you from that force? Let's talk about it first! ”
"Well...... I'm a Destiny One, and my power is temporarily on my own, called the Temple of Extermination."
After Mu Chen lowered his head and hummed, he selectively said some of his truth.
My brother is still settling accounts! What's more, the NPC boss lady in front of me who has only been in contact with it for a few minutes! How could Mu Chen reveal all his details, as the so-called: the heart of defense is indispensable!
"You're a Destiny?"
"Yes!"
Mu Chen nodded in response.
“……”
The grocery store proprietress lowered her head and her eyes dropped, and after some hesitation, she said her final bottom-line condition.
"It's okay to join your forces, but it must be stated in the contract that our relationship is only to share the truth of these unknown items, I have the absolute right to freedom of life, and I can't use your power against our natives."
"I can agree to the right to freedom, and I will also add, you must not disclose all the information about me and my forces in any form, otherwise you will never be resurrected, and if you don't deal with your aborigines in the end, this article must also be changed, if it is an individual aboriginal or a power aboriginal who provokes me first, I have the right to fight back."
Cooperation contract! Isn't that putting one's own interests first? So Mu Chen changed the conditions proposed by the grocery store proprietor.
"And what kind of punishment will you suffer if you break the terms of the contract?"
Seeing that Mu Chen didn't mention the consequences of his punishment, the grocery store proprietress couldn't help frowning and asked.
"Like your punishment, whoever violates the terms of the contract between us will never be resurrected."
"In addition, the information obtained by both parties on unknown items must be unconditionally shared and not maliciously hidden."
“……”
Mu Chen didn't say anything, but directly spent 1 gold coin to draw up a contract with the system, noting the conditions and punishments negotiated by the two parties before, but he also added an extra sentence at the end, the contract application fee, the AA system for both parties A and B.
"What a slam on the door!"
Sure enough, when Mu Chen handed the double contract to the grocery store proprietress for inspection, when she saw the final AA system, she directly rolled her eyes and said with a white glance at Mu Chen.
"Everyone's life is not easy, we who have just arrived here, so I want you to have a bulging pocket and a lot of money!"
Mu Chen explained that he was stingy.
"Ding, the contract has been signed successfully, and you can check the specific information in the contract column."
"Ding, the demon spirit has joined your faction [Temple of Extermination], and you can assign positions among the members of the faction."
As soon as the contract between the two parties was signed, the contract turned into two rays of light and entered the bodies of the two of them, and at the same time, the system prompt in Mu Chen's ears also rang.
Mu Chen opened the attribute bar of this second member of the Temple of Extermination with curiosity, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise: "You are not human?" ”
“……”
"You're going to die? Why are you so loud? ”
The grocery store proprietress was startled by Mu Chen's sudden scream, and when she touched it, a big fluffy white tail came out from behind her.
