Chapter 12: the Worm Stick

This time the middle-aged man went longer than expected, and he didn't come back after waiting for nearly ten minutes, and in his spare time, Ed saw that the two girls were picking weapons with great interest, completely ignorant of the performance and practicality of weapons, and they chose whichever weapon was good-looking.

He scratched his head and sighed, "Forget it, being idle is idle anyway." ”

A little lazily walked up to the two girls, and was about to explain to them the specific use of each weapon, he was stunned, looking at the weapon in Xingchen's hand with a look of surprise, "What the hell is this?" the bug stick so short? ”

The Bug Stick is a weapon that can both slash monsters by wielding the long stick in your hand and attack monsters by controlling a domesticated insect called Bug Hunter. The usual insect stick is about two meters long, and it can jump up and fight monsters in the air, completely suppressing the monster through rapid attacks, and the attack of the insect can absorb the energy of the monster and attach it to the hunter to make it get a short period of self-enhancement ability, which is a well-received weapon, but it will be more difficult for novices to use.

Compared to the bug stick, the royal gun that Ed was carrying was a completely different style of weapon.

The gun is a high-performance weapon invented by the dragon craftsman of Minagard on the basis of the spear with the ability to add artillery bombardment, both the strong defense of the spear and the unique gunpowder blasting damage, although the multiple armor and shield of the gun are very heavy, but its ability to both pierce and shell the adaptability, can allow hunters to make a variety of responses in the face of different situations, is an excellent weapon with both attack and defense.

But what surprised Ed was not because Xingchen chose a bug stick that was difficult for her novice to use, but because the bug stick in her hand was surprisingly only one-third the length of a normal bug stick, and she made a long stick into a short stick, and the shape of the short stick was very weird, the two ends of the short stick were crimson blades, and the body of the stick was dark brown, and the shape of each part was twisted and extremely untidy, and it was impossible to see what material was used, making people feel like they were made of colorful unknown materials.

"Huh?" At this time, Xingchen was still immersed in the joy of shopping, and Ed's sudden burst out of a sentence made her not react for a while, and looked at him a little confused.

"It's the first time I've seen such a short bug stick in my life, are you sure you want to buy this?"

"Do you have an opinion? I also hold back my opinions, why didn't I see you so positive just now? Dan on the side pushed him away with a look of disgust, and took Xingchen's hand and walked to the counter.

"Alas...... Whatever you want. Ed shook his head with a wry smile, casually glanced at the weapons on the shelves, and walked back.

After another while, the middle-aged man walked out tremblingly with a few pieces of armor, his face full of apologies, "I'm sorry, I've kept you waiting, there are too many armor in the warehouse and it took a while to find it." ”

Before Ed could speak, Dan directly put the insect stick selected by Xingchen on the table at the counter, and looked at the middle-aged man with a smile, "And this weapon is also counted together, and by the way, bring a set of leather armor worn by novices." ”

"Return leather armor, don't you buy it if you don't know how to buy it?" Ed held his forehead, a hint of complaint in his tone.

Dan turned his head and glared at him, "I want leather!" Leave it alone, grab your armor and stay there. ”

Seeing that she was so persistent, Ed didn't bother to say anything, shrugged his shoulders, lifted the ore suit and silently walked to the side and stood.

Xingchen put his two small hands on the counter, his eyes were full of stars, and he raised his head and asked the middle-aged man curiously, "Uncle, does this weapon have any special abilities?" That gun was so ugly just now, isn't it even more powerful that we're so beautiful? ”

"Well, this ......" the middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and said with some embarrassment, "I made it casually with ore dug up from the snowy mountains, and I didn't have a name, and I don't know what the specific effect is." ”

"Haha......" Ed, who was hiding behind, had already guessed what was going on when he heard the first half of the sentence, and couldn't hold back his laughter.

Hearing that the weapon he chose did not have special abilities, Xingchen not only did not show a dissatisfied expression, but said with a smile, "Hehe...... It doesn't matter if you don't, as long as it's good-looking, right, Sister Dan. “

Dan glanced at Ed, who was standing next to him stealing fun, and looked at the stars with encouraging eyes, "That's it, as long as it's good-looking!" “

The middle-aged man looked at the two girls in disbelief and then at Ed behind him, and asked seriously, "Are you really going to buy this?" But now that the store has sold out of insects, if you want to buy this insect stick, I can give you a set of tools to catch insects, and you can catch them yourself. “

The two girls nodded without hesitation, and Ed, who was standing behind, smiled even more happily, even if he chose an inferior weapon, in the end, there was not even a hunting insect, such an obvious pit actually jumped in, I really don't understand women.

The middle-aged man hid his inner joy and took down a set of leather armor from the wall and placed it in front of them, because leather armor is a must-have armor for novice hunters, and it is in great demand, and each store will prepare a lot of stock, which is often placed in a place that is easy to sell at hand.

Then he took out the same document as before and handed it to them.

"What is this?" Xingchen asked curiously with the papers.

Dan stared at it for a moment before he reacted, and said with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry, we are not hunters, please give us an ordinary purchase contract." “

"Huh?" The middle-aged man was also stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to say something, but Ed, who was standing behind, swallowed back the words that came to his lips, changed a somewhat wrinkled document and handed it to them, and said politely, "Twelve thousand z of insect sticks, five hundred z of leather armor, a total of seventeen thousand z, thank you for your patronage." “

Dan nodded, took out a bag of coins, counted out a few and put them on the counter, signed the papers, and handed them back to the middle-aged man.

"Huh?" Xingchen, who was happily looking left and right with his newly acquired insect stick, suddenly came back to his senses and looked at the coins on the counter with a puzzled face, "Why do we have to pay?" Didn't Ed just pay for it? ”

Dan glared angrily at Ed, who was trying to steal fun, and patiently explained to Xingchen, "The purchase contract signed by that stingy ghost is specially provided to hunters, we are not hunters, so we can't use it, we can only sign a general purchase contract, and I don't know how to carry forward the style and let the girl pay, it's really a stingy ghost." ”

Xingchen suddenly asked with stars in his eyes, "Don't hunters have to pay for things?" So good! We're going to be hunters soon, so can we not pay for it? ”

Dan shook his head, "It's not that you don't have to give money, because most of the hunters wander around various cities and villages, and it is easy for people to snoop on them if they carry a large number of coins, and it is also very inconvenient, so hunters usually keep the money in the Hunters' Guild headquarters in East Dolma, and when they buy things, they can use the badge with personal identification issued by the Hunters' Guild Headquarters to stamp it and then sign it." ”

Xingchen looked at her half-incomprehensibly, "Then every time you make money, do you have to go to Nadong to save it?" It's a troublesome look. ”

Dan was a little stunned by her, and touched her head after clearing his thoughts, "That's not what it means, after you register as a hunter, the reward for each mission will be directly deposited into your badge, so you don't have to go all the way to East Dolma to save money." ”

Xingchen, who was touched on the head, didn't hide, and rubbed Dan's hand with some enjoyment, and said softly, "Hmm...... Sister Dan's hands are so soft. ”

"Did you listen to me?"

"Got it...... Yes, touch here...... Don't stop...... Hmm......" Xingchen nodded slightly, and continued to rub with an intoxicated expression, and made a strange sound.

Dan was stunned for a moment, and then a touch of crimson flashed on his face stimulated by the strange sound made by Xingchen, and he quickly moved his hand, and glanced at Xingchen with a somewhat complicated look, "Xing...... Xingxing, are you alright? ”

Xingchen woke up from his intoxication, remembering what had just happened, his immature little face was red to the root of his ears, and he hurriedly waved his hand and shouted, "Ahh......hh No, you don't see anything! ”
