Chapter 5 A New Beginning

Because of his background identity, the character played by Su Chen had a Gundam Respect reputation in Shafeir City (formerly Ash Wood Town) from the beginning. Reputation in the Bolim Realm and the Norhan Kingdom has also reached a friendly level - the prestige index in the Bolim Realm is slightly higher than in the Kingdom.

It is with this identity that Su Chen has the foundation to intervene in disputes and convince others. Replace an ordinary player with a cold reputation, and you won't even have a chance to interject, let alone be trusted and obeyed.

Fortunately, after a month of preparation for the game, Su Chen has a more correct understanding of his identity and the positioning of his abilities. However, judging from the many small tasks that I am doing in the small town now, not only is there no decent reward in terms of money, but also very little in terms of experience.

Take, for example, the daily task of militia training! 6 days a month without falling a day, a total of only 4 points of experience and the salary given before. And the daily rewards of helping other civilians are also many prestige rewards and some worthless thank-you gifts for the parties, and of course, there are hidden favorability points. Although with these tasks, Su Chen solved the problem of survival in the small city, and was able to make a slight surplus. But if you want to improve the level of your character, you don't know if you have to wait until the Year of the Monkey!

"The preparations are almost there. The next step is to go on some adventure missions. But I'm afraid it's not easy for me to be alone! It's time to get yourself some teammates. Su Chen was thinking in his heart, and at the same time, he left the old family heirloom house where he lived "for a long time".

Judging from Su Chen's current understanding, the tasks of the adventurers' union are generally very difficult. No, it should be that all the combat-related tasks in Diarra Big 6 are very difficult - especially when most first-generation players don't have good attributes.

According to the results of various offline websites and forums, 8o% of the players who first entered the game are already waiting for the growth of the second generation of characters. In addition to the unscrupulousness of some players at the beginning, there are also reasons for the difficult adventure missions.

If this is a company that has released an entertainment online game, it has long been boycotted, protested, and sent blades by excited players, and how can it still operate. After all, that's for the players to play the game, not for the game. But after the United Earth government used it as a resource allocation tool, it was a different matter.

It is precisely because in many people it seems that this is actually an alternative job. In a society where 95% of the population is unemployed or unemployed. People think that any opportunity to earn credits beyond the benefits is precious.

Su Chen, who had stepped out of the house, wandered around in the "former Ash Town" that had become a Shafir City. Although this seems to be a casual walk, it can actually be regarded as a very important channel for obtaining information.

Along the way, he was greeted by familiar natives (NPCs) from time to time. Because during this period of time, Su Chen was at work, and he put law or morality first, and he was quite dignified in self-discipline and discipline. Coupled with the fact that he is a very easy-going person in private, he gets along very well with the aborigines.

It didn't take long for Su Chen's current character, Barrett, to arrive at the bazaar, one of the two major intelligence distribution centers in the city. Bazaars are usually divided into two categories, one is the specialized commercial area, where players and aborigines can operate a variety of shops, workshops or artisans.

However, for now, the operating expenses of such large stores are definitely not affordable for ordinary players. Only a few 'professional merchants' who use credits to hire a large number of "craft workers" and buy up the funds in the hands of players will seize the opportunity to start renting shops at this time. According to offline revelations, the best of them have even been able to start hiring aboriginal craftsmen with better craftsmanship at this stage. It's just that in the city of Shafeir, Barrett has never seen such a scene.

The second type of market is currently the best choice for the average player, and it is usually a large open space in the central square of the town or at the entrance to the town. Vendors can then set up 'stalls' in the open space for a small fee – just as the trading days have become more frequent among the indigenous people. Of course, the management organization will provide guards here to maintain order in the market, and while theft is not avoidable, there will never be blatant robbery or murder.

This trade has created an alternative boom, and even the Aboriginal will inevitably sell things that are not easily seen in most shops (although Barrett feels more like the player has made the original Aboriginal bazaar bigger). Normally, the aboriginal adventurers who come here to 'set up stalls' will also walk around the Big 6, carrying out various treasure hunting adventures and business tours. Even if the player's charisma and negotiation are high enough, they can also form teammates with the natives.

With the potential of advanced artificial intelligence, these Indigenous adventurers are no less judgmental than the average player. What's more, because of the knowledge and abilities given by the system, they are still good player mentors in the early stage.

In addition, just like in reality, there are also auction venues in "Diarra Big 6". For example, in Karada, the most important western capital of the western plains of the Norhan Kingdom, there is a well-known "Chi Guevara Auction House". As for the sub-level city of Poitou, there are also irregular underground auction houses.

It's a pity that in a small place like Shafeir City, you can't see so many tricks. One of the main streets that runs through the town from southeast to northwest is the Aboriginal-run commercial street. Because of planning problems, the streets are lined with shops and handicraft workshops. The other entrance to the east of the town is the so-called 'bazaar' area. These two places, together with the horse-riding districts peculiar to the southern trading routes, constitute the most important commercial concentration in the city of Shafir, the source of the flow of money.

Seemingly aimlessly strolling around the bazaar, Barrett didn't gain anything. While wandering around and looking at the goods, he had a nice pair of small arm shields on a stall. For him to use a two-handed giant weapon, this seemed like a good option.

He stopped and bent down to look at the number given by the equipment, 1 shield bonus and 1 armor check impairment, as well as the 5% increase in arcane failure, all of which Barrett expected. The weight of 6 pounds has passed the small round shield and reached the category of light steel shields. However, considering that if you wear both hands separately, there is no problem.

"hI, man, looks like you've just had a successful adventure?" Barrett gestured to the item in front of him and greeted the seller.

"Yes! It's just a matter of luck. The guy in the booth raised his head, and his slightly immature face seemed a little out of place with the calmness of his appearance.

'Believe you?' Barrett could see that the appearance of the other game's characters was absolutely unconvinced by the real age, and it could be very different.

Still, he said quietly, "Arm shields, crossbows, unknown ores, and scimitars that need to be repaired." You must have been part of some kind team before, and the ambush went very smoothly. ”

As he spoke, Barrett pointed to the items on the stall, and then the face of the stall set up changed slightly. Although the goods on this are not high-quality products, they are not just anyone who can get them. And there are a few traces of it that have not been used, and it is clear that they are new and unsold. These things appear here, and the story behind them is self-evident.

The other party's face changed several times, and there was a fierce light in his eyes. However, Barrett's next words put the other party at ease: "You don't have to worry about what I'm going to say." Every qiΔ“ here needs to pay attention to evidence, and there are no wanted documents pasted outside the office. I guess the prey before you wasn't a serious person! Besides, I'm here to do business with you. ”

As he spoke, Barrett pointed his finger at the item he was looking at: "What is the price of this arm shield." ”

At this point, the expression on the other party's face finally relaxed, and he looked at the item Barrett had indicated and said, "25 gold coins." ”

"It's expensive!" Barrett shook his head.

"How can it be expensive? Don't you notice the most important number on it? The vendor stood up at once, grabbed the pair of arm shields and roared, "Equipping this arm shield does not affect the use of two-handed weapons!" This can also be said to be the favorite of two-handed warriors. ”

In general, shields cannot be used with two-handed weapons. Even the small round shield that can be used will inevitably affect the swing of the weapon, which is a little bit of damage to the attack according to the number of games jΓΉ. Melee combat with two-handed weapons is usually the main output of the team at this stage, which is often more than worth the loss for them.

"Your asking price is too high, and it's hard for anyone to come up with such a large sum of gold now. If it's a credit, it's fine, but you'd rather set it up here than sell it on an offline website. Explain that you need gold, not credits! And it's urgently needed. At this point, Barrett blinked, ready to hit the other side further, "Say it again." At this stage, there are not many people who can use this pair of arm shields well! It requires special skill in use. ”

The guy who knew that Barrett was talking about the matter, gritted his teeth and asked, "How much do you make?" ”

"18 gold! This is my assessment of its value, and I don't want it any higher. Barrett directly reported his bottom line, anyway, for him, this equipment is just icing on the cake.

"No!" The other party struggled for a while, and then asked softly, "It's not impossible to sell it to you at this price." In other words, you're the original tester of this game! ”

Barrett asked rhetorically with interest, "Why do you think so?" ”
