Online Game: Super Beast Tamer

Chapter 165 Blacksmith Nez (Subscribe~)

In the village, some NPCs were selling goods on the streets, some were drying clothes and quilts in the courtyard, or some were walking on the road carrying a basket.

No matter what these NPCs are doing, they will be "harassed" by Su Ming...

Every time, Su Ming would start his conversation with "Do you know which is the highest mountain in Element?" Some NPCs would answer that they didn't know, while others would ask Su Ming to go away in disgust...

Finally, Su Ming asked a little kid, who gave a more reliable answer:

"Brother, you should check it out at a library in a big city."

Just as Su Ming listened to the kid's advice and was about to crush the stone returning to the city, he saw a short, stocky man with a loud voice arguing with a fruit vendor.

The man had a thick beard, and the white cloth bag on his back was bulging out, revealing vegetables, fruits, fish and meat, as if he was a man who had stayed at home for a long time and suddenly went out to buy some.

Su Ming had been in the village for two or three days. He was an active person, running around and looking around. With a good memory, he basically recognized all the NPCs in the village, but he had never seen this bearded man.

In addition, the NPC had a unique appearance, which immediately attracted Su Ming's attention.

Faced with such an NPC, no player would not go to watch the fun.

Su Ming put down the return stone and prepared to try his luck, maybe he could trigger a good task.

This NPC is called Nez.

Su Ming listened to their quarrel for a while and summarized the reason - it seemed that Nez tried the apple and felt it was not tasty, so he was not going to buy it and leave, but was stopped by the boss.

They were arguing so fiercely that other NPCs nearby came over.

Su Ming didn't know how long it would take for them to finish arguing, so he said:

"Boss, let me pay for this uncle's apple."

"Okay, 2.5 silver." The uncle selling fruits agreed decisively.

Su Ming paid the money. The uncle who bought the fruit glared at Nez. Nez glared at Su Ming, pushed through the crowd and left.

Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, the nearby NPCs dispersed and went about their business.

Su Ming caught up with Nez and asked:
"Uncle, where are you from?"

Nez glanced at Su Ming and did not answer Su Ming's question. He was still entangled in the matter of Apple:

"I'm telling you, kid, don't meddle in other people's business. His apples aren't sweet at all. You're only encouraging his arrogance."

Su Ming was speechless and said:

"Uncle, that's a green apple...it's probably not sweet."

"You guys, your words are the same as that fruit vendor's. Are you in the same group?" Nez asked suspiciously.

"Uncle, where are you going with all these foods? Do you need me to carry them for you?" Su Ming tried to trigger a task, which usually required helping NPCs.

"Haha, with your small body, can you carry so many things?"

Su Ming picked up the whistle on his chest, turned it around, and said:

"Although I may not be able to lift it, my pet can."

Then, Su Ming summoned the hammer that seemed to have the greatest strength.

The majestic hammer appeared in the town, scaring the surrounding NPCs to flee in all directions. Some people even dropped the things in their hands. Su Ming explained to these frightened NPCs that this was his pet, and helped those NPCs who dropped things to pick up the things.

After pacifying these NPCs, Su Ming looked again and found that Nez had gone far away.

After all, it was a big road. Su Ming was afraid that chasing after him with a hammer would cause another commotion, so he put the hammer away, ran quickly, and caught up with him.

"Uncle, you haven't answered me yet, where are you going?" Su Ming chased after Nez and asked.

"I want to go home, you little guy, why are you so annoying?" said Nez.

"Where is your home?" Su Ming fully demonstrated the players' spirit of being persistent and would never give up just because the NPC refused.

Nez rolled his eyes, ignored Su Ming, and walked straight out of the village.

Su Ming kept asking questions around Nez, and when he asked about the highest mountain in Eliment, Nez's steps paused noticeably. Su Ming's eyes lit up, and he thought there was a hope, and he didn't need to spend time going to the library to look for information.

As Nez walked, he asked Su Ming:

“Why this mountain?”

Su Ming answered truthfully:

"I heard that there is a blacksmith with superb forging skills living on this mountain. I want to buy dark gold equipment from him."

Nez raised his eyebrows and said calmly:
"The blacksmith with superb forging skills you mentioned is me. As for the highest mountain, that was a long time ago. Now I have moved..."

Su Ming was surprised. He ran to Nez, stopped him, and said with shining eyes:

"Please sell me the dark gold equipment! If you have any difficulties, I can help you!"

Now they were outside the village, and there were few NPCs around, so Su Ming summoned his three pets at once. He said:

"As you can see, I am a...powerful listener. Look at my three pets. Aren't they well trained?"

Xiao Hei cooperated with Su Ming to puff up his body to make himself look stronger; Zuoemon half closed his eyes, both disdainful of showing his strength and feeling that he was not strong enough; the hammer... it was just a hammer, and it could not understand what was happening now.

Nez stretched out his hand to push Su Ming away, continued walking forward, and said casually:
"I don't need your help. If you want to buy some dark gold equipment, just give me the money."

"Okay, okay, please wait here, I'll go get the money right away. How much does it cost?"

"There are expensive ones and cheap ones, a hundred thousand or so is enough." Nez said, "However, besides you, there is another adventurer who found me and asked me to buy equipment.

I have a rule that I only sell one piece of dark gold equipment every year, so you two have to have a competition, and whoever wins will be eligible to buy equipment from me."

"There are others?" Su Ming was surprised... It turned out that other players should not be underestimated. He didn't know how they found the map of over level 30.

In the distance, there was an eagle standing on the hill with golden feathers except for the white feathers on its neck.

Nez blew a whistle, and the giant eagle flapped its wings. Su Ming could feel the airflow coming towards him even though he was ten meters away.

The golden eagle landed next to Nez, and Su Ming discovered that there was a saddle-like device on the bird's back.

Nez threw the huge backpack on the Golden Eagle, turned to Su Ming and said:

"You'll have two minutes to get the money."

Nez knew the location of the bank in the village. For a trainer of Su Ming's level, it would normally take more than two minutes to make the round trip.

Therefore, these two minutes can be regarded as part of Nez's test. If Su Ming cannot come back within two minutes, Nez will fly away directly on the giant eagle.

"Ok!"

Su Ming nodded and immediately ran to the bank in the village. After a while, he returned to Nez with a huge sum of money.

Su Ming has a permanent 40% movement speed bonus, which far exceeds that of other beast tamers of the same level. His movement speed is similar to that of some agility professions that mix silver and bronze equipment.

Nez sat on the giant eagle, looked down at Su Ming, and said with a smile:
"The movements are quite fast, it seems that there is some real strength."

Then, Nez said to the giant eagle:

"Moniya, please sit down..."

Before Nez finished speaking, Su Ming's cheerful voice rang in his ears again:
"Mr. Neitz, let's go!"

Nez was surprised. As a Storm Eagle with a bad temper, Monia actually let a stranger come up without her order.

"Monya, do you like him?" Nez communicated with Monya through his consciousness.

Monia said speechlessly:
"Like shit, this guy is as agile as a monkey, the passive current can't shock him."

Nez: “…”

"Mr. Nez?" Su Ming waved his hand in front of Nez and asked, "Why haven't you set off yet? Did you forget to buy something?"

Nez rubbed his forehead, feeling that Su Ming would be a very troublesome guy, and said to Monica:
"Let's go, Monica, take off!"
