27 The "Knights of the Holy Black Cat" for girls
In the safe zone located outside the city, in addition to the classic mob slime, there are also wild boars.
These boars live in the woods near towns, but often run to the farmland outside the city to plague crops, so they are also on the blacklist of quests, and can be rewarded with 10 copper coins for successfully defeating one.
But according to Kiriko, who has fought with wild boars, the difficulty of fighting a wild boar and fighting a slime is completely different, and the wild boar in this world is simply no different from the wild boar in the real world, even if it is an ordinary team of players, it is not so easy to deal with a wild boar.
However, as long as the player has enough guts, it is actually much easier to kill a wild boar in this game world than in the real world.
Perhaps because there are no mud ponds or pine trees near the town, the boars that roam the vicinity and destroy the farmland do not have a thick carapace to protect them, and as long as the "skill" is used at the right time, the normal weapon in the player's hand can also deal a lot of damage to the wild boar, and the damage caused by the wild boar attacking the player is much lighter than in reality.
Inspired by Chu Xuan, Argo and Tongzi saw the wild boar, and no longer simply regarded it as a monster that had to be the best, not only thinking about carrying back the skin, fangs, meat, and bones of the wild boar and selling them, but also thinking about catching small wild boars to domesticate, and even building a wild boar breeding base - just like in reality, they made a fortune by feeding wild boars.
It's just that this idea of being too far considered was temporarily shelved by Chu Xuan, in reality, those wild boars that were tended were actually improved breeds, and the real wild boar actually tasted far inferior to domestic pork, if Argo and Tongzi really wanted to serve wild boars that could be sold at a high price, they must also go through several generations or even more than ten generations of conscious breed improvement.
Wouldn't it be more profitable to do that time than to herd wild boars?
Not to mention that the time in this game is completely synchronized with reality, which means that Chu Xuan's stay in the "Realm of Gods" is only two years at most, where does he have time to improve the breed of wild boar.
After killing 50 slimes and 5 wild boars, Chu Xuan and Argo returned to the city with the materials for five people, while Black Cat, Kiriko, and Lifa continued to explore the geography around the town and the distribution of wild monsters.
In this game that looks like a real world, although players can use their own "space grid" to load all the materials into the subspace, in addition to not exceeding the volume of the package, they must also be limited by the "weight", and the "weight" is related to strength, and the "weight" exceeds the limit, and the player will feel the gravity he bears increases.
Even with Chu Xuan's strength, he couldn't take away all the materials that everyone got from the five wild boars, four wild boars that were not too big plus two slimes, about six hundred kilograms of materials, which reached the upper limit of Chu Xuan's weight, although he could also carry more materials, but in that case, it would begin to affect his mobility.
The petite Argo's weight-bearing capacity is only a little more than 100 kilograms, and he can't even take away the material of a wild boar completely, so he can only put the remaining part of the meat in the black cat, which has the second strongest weight-bearing capacity.
Even if the ingredients collected today can't be sold, the 20 copper coins you get by completing two missions can add some roasted wild boar to your recipes, and the girls' mood becomes happy when they think about it.
Although in reality they may feel that meals such as white bread with roast wild boar meat are still too simple, their standard of living is undoubtedly steadily improving compared to the few meals with only white bread and water, and this confidence in life is the source of happiness for them.
After Chu Xuan and Argo returned to the city, they did not rush to find a store to sell materials, but came to the library together first.
The librarian is still the white-robed old man who looks very serious, although under the leadership of Chu Xuan, Argo was not driven by him, but he forbade Argo to read books, it seems that the knowledge of this world is only open to people with a certain status, and civilians are not even qualified to contact this knowledge.
As a result, Argo had no choice but to give up the path of obtaining information from the library for the time being, and while collecting information in the town, he also inquired about shops that could buy materials from slimes and wild boars.
Argo walked around the city and found that everything was as Chu Xuan expected, the effect of slimes' skin and body fluids had not yet been discovered by the "earthlings", only the shops opened by alchemists who would buy all kinds of strange materials would give the lowest price of one copper coin for one material, and only a few were acquired.
Although the materials on the boar can be sold for some price, the purchase price of the largest amount of wild boar is only one-third of that of ordinary pork, and even the best parts of the meat on the wild boar are only two-thirds of that of ordinary pork, but the tusks and skin of wild boar are worth a little more.
But unlike slimes, which breed super fast, there are only a limited number of wild boars in the woods, and the number of wild boars that come over to harm the farmland is even more limited, and the task of killing wild boars is not every day.
And in addition to Chu Xuan's team, there are also many players who dare to fight with wild boars, as time goes by, maybe even the wild boars and other monsters in the forest near the town will be killed, and it is not easy to rely on hunting to ensure income.
After all, there are 30,000 "adventurers" in this small town, most of whom are combatants rather than production workers, and it is not realistic to rely on the production of the vicinity of this "novice village" for support.
Once these players have reached a certain level of strength, they will have to venture out of the safe zone and try to travel further afield to hunt more powerful monsters, or travel to larger cities in search of a higher quality of life.
And if Chu Xuan's prediction was not wrong, as long as the player's level rose to a certain level, even if they didn't want to leave, the "earthlings" in this town would force them to leave - because the output of this small town was limited, it was simply not enough to support so many adventurers for a long time, even if it was just to feed them black bread every day.
It was precisely because of Chu Xuan's analysis that all the members of the "Holy Black Cat Knights" had a sense of urgency, and in the following period of time, whether it was Black Cat and Tongzi, or this party and Xiaojing, they all worked harder to exercise their combat ability, and tried their best to recruit new members for the guild.
However, after the unanimous decision of the vast majority of the members of the guild, in the future, the members of the "Holy Black Cat Knights" will be dominated by players with female surnames in the "Realm of the Gods".
However, even if they are eligible to join the "Holy Black Cat Knights", players with male surnames must be subject to some special restrictions that other guilds do not have, and can only act with female players when invited by female players, and it is impossible to casually take a sister in the guild.
And not only those players with a male surname who have "bad intentions", but also players with a female surname who have "bad conduct" cannot become members of the "Knights of the Holy Black Cat".
The current members unanimously agreed that although the "Holy Black Cat Knights" do not have to take the high-end elite route, they cannot blindly expand their scale, regardless of the number of people, and the most important thing is to ensure the atmosphere within the guild, so that everyone can live happily in this guild and treat the guild as their own home.
It is precisely because of this that even after more than ten days, the members of the "Holy Black Cat Knights" have not exceeded three digits, in addition to the fact that there are few female players in "The Realm of the Gods", the appeal of the guild is also a big reason.
-- Such a small guild of players that no one had heard of before was certainly not as attractive as a guild founded by professional players who were also famous in other games.
And...... Maybe the guild name itself is also an important reason for some players with female surnames to turn away.
However, Chu Xuan and the black cat didn't care about the number of guild members, anyway, in the past ten days, the four people who were Chu Xuan's strategic targets, Kiriko, Kuroyukihime, Kurashima Chiyuri, and Himiko, had all joined the "Sacred Black Cat Knights", and Asuna didn't know which deep mountain and old forest they were hiding in to upgrade wildly.
Perhaps because of the so-called "surname" relationship, Kiriko and Lifa easily recruited characters from "Acceleration World" such as Kuroyukihime - of course, including the little fat pig Haruyuki Arita.
But for the time being, there is no special relationship between Haruyuki Arita and his senior sister Kuroyukihime from the same middle school, and he and his childhood sweetheart Kurashima Chiyuri are now dating his other childhood sweetheart's friend Dai Takutake.
As for Himiko, when Chu Xuan and the others met her, she was being chased by a group of male players who looked like hooligans, and after Chu Xuan and the others fought with those male players, they rescued Himiko and pulled her into the "Holy Black Cat Knights".
This conflict with the player is the first PK of the "Holy Black Cat Knights", but it must not be the last PK, and it is precisely because of Himiko's encounter that the girls in the guild have set strict rules that restrict the entry conditions of players with male surnames.
And Xiao and Chenghui, Naoji and the others seemed to have gotten together before entering this game, and they had already established a small guild called "Recorded Horizon", so Chu Xuan didn't try to recruit them anymore, but just formed an alliance with the other party's "belly black glasses" to watch and help each other.
