Chapter 39: The Exploding Sword Becomes Famous (Seeking Follow-up)
Since the B-rank demonic beast was defeated, two strange things have happened in the forest.
One is that there seem to be more magical beasts, in the past, you could only see groups of magical beasts gathering in the depths of the forest, but now even hunter squads hunting in shallow places often encounter small groups of beast tides.
The incident quickly aroused the alarm of the city, and it is said that after a short break, the Red Dragon Knights sent several more teams to the depths of the forest to investigate the cause.
The second strange thing is that among the group of monster hunters who come to the forest to hunt, a strange "sword" has recently become popular.
It is called a "sword" because its appearance is basically indistinguishable from that of a normal iron sword.
It is "strange" because it explodes.
That's right, it's an explosion.
As the literal meaning suggests, after swinging, the long sword will immediately explode, and the wave of magical energy generated is enough to shatter more than a dozen crystallized demonic beasts in an instant.
At first, this strange weapon was only circulated among a small number of orcs, but as the news spread more and more, someone finally couldn't hold it back, and out of curiosity, he spent dozens of silver coins to buy an explosive sword from an orc.
The man was a team of dozens of Monster hunters, and he rushed back with an explosive sword and swung a sword in front of his teammates—
And then they blew up.
"I'll go, it's really going to explode!?"
"It's almost as powerful as artillery!"
"How much, 80 silver coins? Hiss... It's a bit expensive. ”
"You're stupid, I bought it from someone else, and the store must be cheaper than that—"
"Where did you buy it? I'll buy some self-defense when I get back... With this thing, even if you encounter a beast tide, you don't have to be afraid anymore..."
In all fairness, the power of the explosive sword is still much worse than that of those heavy artillery, and it is also a one-time one, and it will be broken when it is used up.
But it wins in two ways.
First, the price is cheap. Heavy artillery can easily cost tens of thousands of silver coins, but this explosive sword only costs a few dozen silver coins, even the most down-and-out Warcraft hunter, as long as he grits his teeth, he can make enough money.
Second, it is easy to carry. Compared to bulky artillery, the explosive sword is light and simple, does not need to be loaded, as long as it is carried on the body, and it can produce an explosion with a light swing in the hand when encountering danger, which is not too convenient.
So, these monster hunters began to look around for people to inquire about the mysterious shop that sold explosive swords.
Soon they got an important piece of information from the orcs -
"It's Jim's Inn!"
"Jim's Inn? Haven't heard of... Is there a hostel in Benin? ”
"I know—" exclaimed one of the Beast hunters, "this inn is in the slums, and it's owned by orcs. ”
Orc ......
The crowd fell silent.
Most of the humans in the Western Continent look down on orcs, thinking that they are stupid and stupid, and that they have no brute strength.
Now it's a bit of a ...... to ask them to buy weapons from the orcs Lose face.
"Huh, bunch of idiots!" Someone sneered, "You just die in the mouth of the monster with senseless pride." I haven't lived long enough, so I'm going to buy a sword in the slums! ”
So when the man returned to Benin City, he immediately went to the slums.
Because Su Ye was dedicated to striking iron, he entrusted Jim to be in charge of selling the blade. The reward of 5 silver coins in a month will also give you a 2-cent commission for each sword sold.
Jim was worried that he couldn't afford to build a warehouse, so he gladly accepted and converted the lobby on the first floor of the inn into a weapons shop, filled with all kinds of weapons.
These are all red iron that Su Ye tried to forge, and the material is all the same, not only swords, but also various other cold weapons infused with magic power.
"You're here to buy weapons?" Seeing the guests come to the door, Jim enthusiastically introduced: "Our store has a variety of cold weapons - magic sword, magic sword and all kinds of knives, guns, axes, hammers and other cold weapons. In addition, we also provide weapon customization services, which require customers to provide materials and forging costs......"
However, the man was not interested in the weapons placed in the hall, and said straight to the point: "I want to buy the explosive sword!"
......
"Explosive Sword..."Su Ye's face was full of black lines in the open space in the backyard.
Obviously, his forging skills are now perfected, why do people still come to buy the original failure...
"The sword he asked for was piled up in the clearing, tell him - 20 silver coins a sword, no bargaining!"
Jim returned with the words, and the man quickly left the slum with a dozen swords in his arms.
The next day, a few more people hurried into the inn, asking for the explosive sword, and finally bought all the "failed goods" that were left.
Day 3, Day 4...
More and more people gathered in front of the hotel, and many of them even smelled a business opportunity.
They turned a blind eye to all the weapons displayed in the hall, and opened their mouths to buy some explosive sword, which made Su Ye speechless for a while.
Big brothers, please take a good look at the regular weapons in the hall! Those are the top-grade weapons he has worked so hard to build, especially those long swords, which not only construct a magic spell, but also add a lot of characteristics with the skill of [Characteristic Grant (Sword)"...
Is it interesting to keep holding on to the failed product? I don't know, I think I'm Su someone's skills are not good, and I can only forge defective products...
Of course, he is still happy to have money to earn.
The ore on the iron shop could no longer supply Su Ye's needs, so he specially invited Li Yueru to go to the camp and negotiate the ore supply business with Ochla.
After that, every few days, hundreds of catties of iron ore would be delivered to the hotel.
With the money on his body, Su Ye naturally didn't have to smelt ore every day, he asked the iron shop to build a few furnaces, and then found a few honest and loyal orcs on the street, who were responsible for burning fire and smelting iron.
And Su Ye himself was immersed in iron leveling.
In just half a month, he has been promoted to level 33 and has mastered several other professional skills.
【Ore Identification】
This skill allows Su Ye to see the material and metal composition of the ore, as well as judge the temperature of the smelting.
【Attribute Grant】
With this skill, the weapon forged by Su Ye can already add additional attribute values to the holder. Although there is a limit to the number of attribute points he can attach at his current level...
【Weapon Mastery】
This is a combat-related skill, and those who possess this skill will automatically master the use of various weapons, even if they encounter a weapon for the first time.
In addition to his skills, Su Ye's current six-dimensional attributes have also reached an average of about 50.
Although he no longer needs to venture into the forest, the improvement of his strength is still very exciting.
After all, there is still that Elstark Order secretly watching, and it can't be done without the strength to protect itself...
When I took the time to discuss with Li Yueru, from being powerless at the beginning, I was now gradually able to fight with the other party in a few moves.
If Chu Xuan is in hand, he can even stabilize the other party. made Li Yueru depressed for a while.
Such a peaceful day lasted for a few more days, and finally at noon one day, Jim excitedly told Su Ye.
You've found the right store!
