Chapter 279: arrival of reinforcements
In the early morning of the next day, a traveler rushed over in a hurry.
The traveler who came here is a dark elf. The ID in the game is "Su Zixi" (this is said to be his real name), and his current pseudonym is Cervantes. His occupation is the "natural guardian" of the ranger branch, and he has both the abilities of a ranger and a druid. Although he is not as good as a druid who is a professional spellcaster in terms of spells, he is much stronger than a pure ranger.
Among the legendary occupations, many of them are the type that is composed of two occupations. As a rare single-handed ranger, Cervantes uses a knife in one hand and casts spells in the other. With the legendary skill of "one heart and two uses", he can cast spells without hindrance in fierce battles. The effect is far from one plus one equals two. Simple.
After he entered the city, he went straight to the Grey Pigeon Hotel where Panda and the others were staying, and happened to meet Panda and the others who were eating in the cafeteria downstairs.
"That knife..." he said straight to the point.
Panda interrupted him with a cough and said, "Eat first."
"Don't be in a hurry to eat, let's go find the murderer first!" Cervantes said sternly, "When I think that there is an extremely dangerous figure hiding in the dark, threatening the safety of the entire Pollock City people, I will I can't even eat!"
While they were talking, someone in the group chat channel yelled.
"Su Zixi, you bastard! I broke my leg while I wasn't paying attention! Wait! I'll recover in four hours, and then I'll chop off your claws!"
Panda looked at him blankly.
Cervantes coughed twice and sat down: "Well, I think it's a good idea to eat first."
"Aren't you afraid of his revenge?" Panda asked.
"He can't beat me."
"Your race has advantages at night, but it's disadvantageous during the day."
"I can run if I can't beat him, just beat him at night."
"...In my impression, you are a very good friend to friends!"
"If you rob me of equipment, that's not a friend!" Cervantes said solemnly, "Haven't you heard the allusion 'Brother sword comes out, no more brothers'?"
Of course Panda knows this allusion—in a certain game back then, a rare and powerful piece of equipment that could be used by many professions would often make the whole guild uneasy, so there were a lot of people who broke up.
"But when we released the Sword of Archangel, we didn't see anyone with black equipment..." he said.
"It is refreshed once a week, and sooner or later, can something unique in the world be compared to it?" Cervantes asked, "And most importantly, my close brothers, they don't even use knives! Those who usually compete with me for equipment, why do you think I have a good relationship with them?"
Panda finally understood what he meant: "Don't you have a grudge against him in the first place?"
Before he could finish speaking, the brother who had been left behind by Cervantes's broken leg scolded again in the group chat.
"Men San, you bastard! What do you mean by 'the fewer competitors, the better'! You came around in a circle and hung me back to the castle. You are a defensive character, why are you fighting for the golden sword!"
[Ment three: You can protest with the president, he asked me to help fight for this weapon. 】
Panda shook his head again and again, not expecting that San Yu, who has always been a good man, couldn't bear the temptation of golden weapons. He was not good at coming out himself, so he asked a friend to come forward. This is simply...
The practice of Sanyu reminded many people, so several people called friends and formed gangs. It was necessary to rely on the simple and simple method of more people and more strength to strengthen the competitiveness of that golden weapon.
Seeing this situation, Panda finally couldn't bear it anymore and reminded everyone: "Why are you so excited? I haven't even seen that person, and I don't know if he is holding a treasured sword? No, what should I do if I'm just so good at it?"
These words were like a basin of cold water, which immediately calmed everyone down a lot.
As Panda said, there is still a question mark on the existence of that golden weapon. Now I'm busy making connections and making wishes. If that weapon doesn't exist at all, wouldn't it be a loss?
For a while, the chat channel was deserted again, and everyone stopped talking, but communicated and discussed through private chats to discuss what to do.
"Do you really think that the man is not holding a sword, but a strong martial arts?" Cervantes asked.
"If so, what do you do?" Panda asked rhetorically.
Cervantes thought for a while and said, "The equipment of the strong will not be too bad. My knife is still of blue quality, and it is not bad to change it to purple."
Panda is speechless, thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is also true.
Purple equipment is naturally not as good as gold equipment, but it's better than blue equipment anyway!
He thought for a while, opened his character panel, and wondered if it was time for him to update his equipment?
He used to have no money, but now he has a huge sum of more than 200,000 gold coins. Basically, as long as there is good equipment that can be bought in the store, there is nothing that he cannot afford.
That's all, it's always necessary to upgrade the decorations.
Thinking of this, he quickly finished his food and stood up.
"Let's go, let's go to the Adventurer's Association!" he said excitedly, "Go buy equipment!"
Ten minutes later, looking at the accessories brought out by the Adventurer's Association, he couldn't help shaking his head.
These accessories look good, but the problem is that most of them are for intelligence or magic.
"I want to ask a question." He couldn't help but say, "All of your equipment seems to be prepared for spellcasters, right? Isn't there any suitable for warriors?"
The one-legged president looked at him with a foolish look: "The equipment suitable for warriors has of course been bought long ago, where can it be put in now?"
Panda didn't know whether to laugh or cry, only to realize that he had asked a silly question.
The warrior class is the mainstream among adventurers, and it is also the type that saves a lot of money. They are willing to spend money on equipment, because equipment is equivalent to their lives.
In contrast, even if the mage profession has money, they will use it to buy scrolls or magic materials, or buy some meditation potions, incense and so on. Their demand for equipment is relatively low. Anyway, you don't have to rush to the front line to fight. Is it necessary to take care of your equipment?
There is a very extreme saying among adventurers, "Warriors need full equipment, and mages only need a teleportation scroll". It means that the mage shrunk in the back anyway, just use the teleportation scroll to escape when the situation is not good, there is no need for any equipment at all...
"If you want to buy high-quality warrior equipment, you should wait for the auction." The one-legged president said, "Pollock City has an auction at the beginning of each month, and the next auction will not be long."
Panda calculated the time and sighed secretly.
If everything is based on the history in the game, Pollock City will have been destroyed by war before the next auction...
