Chapter 49. Ninja Blade
Astan City was far from the ocean. As one of the few monster-farming spots on the mainland, the underground water could produce three expensive magic materials.
Gillman\'s flippers were the best material for enchantment for [Underwater Haste], which could increase swimming speed by 35%. The mid-brow scale on his forehead was the casting material for [Tidal Wave]. The second to last joint of the tailbone that had degenerated from the tadpole tail to the future was the most precious. It was the transformation material with the strongest affinity for water attributes below level 50.
Felix\'s ancestral sword, Gem Fire, had a shaping characteristic that came from the fire-type creature, Fire Salamander.
For example, if there were enough materials, and with the powder ground from 20 tailbones, one could make a sword similar to Gem Fire, Gem Water.
It was actually a water-element magic sword that could be shaped.
Of course, that was what Char thought, but Mia would not let him do that. She would kill the Gillman.
As a player, her collection methods were too bloody. Most NPCs could tolerate it, but a kind and orderly existence like Mia could not agree with it at all.
If the person who touched her body was not Char, she might have just made a move to let him understand what true kindness and beauty were. However, even Char had no choice but to put away his sword under her watery gaze.
She purified at least twenty corpses along the way, and Char\'s heart was bleeding, but he could do nothing but clench his teeth and sigh.
The [Purification] taught by the Church of Judgement was a point-based system, so he would just treat it as giving Mia points!
As the purification continued, the flashing white light gradually reached the middle of the road, and the sound of flowing water was getting closer and closer. Char realized that they were not far from the fish tank.
Astan City used to be a lake, but after the earth\'s crust moved, the undercurrent surged, and at least a hundred fine tributaries came from all directions, all of which flowed into the underground reservoir in the center of the city, forming the main body of the fish tank that was restraining Mayenne.
After Simon and the others fell down, no matter which undercurrent they followed, they would eventually be flushed into the fish tank. Even if they encountered Gillman along the way, the rapid river would not let them out, not to mention that they had Luke to take care of them. That kid would have probably discovered them long ago.
As they were walking, they suddenly heard the sound of messy footsteps in front of them.
Char could not help but turn around to look at her. She did not notice anything?
"You didn\'t notice it?"
"I\'ve noticed!"
"Then..."
"But you won\'t let me interfere!"
Hmm...
He did not want to make things difficult for Mia.
The footsteps were unfamiliar, but they were definitely not from the Gillman. Char could not think of anything else. He simply hid behind a rock and rushed out from the side, following the source of the sound.
Clang!
The unexpected probing attack was actually blocked by the other party. Although he could not help but stagger, and the power of the sword slowed down his momentum, he did block it.
This surprised Char.
After a short moment, a Green-scaled Gillman with bubble-like eyes appeared behind the other party. It raised its harpoon high, aimed at the two Leviathans, and stuck it out with force.
[Oh my, so he\'s a player who\'s being chased by wild monsters.]
Char understood. Seeing that the man was about to fall, he grabbed his wrist and pulled him back, stabilizing his body. At the same time, the misty sword was pushed upwards, firmly stuck between the two forks of the green-eyed man.
As a level 20 Monsters, the Green-scaled Gillman had high agility but low strength. Even though it was six levels higher than Char, the difference in strength was not that big. For a moment, the two weapons were in a stalemate.
However, there were two people here.
"Its heart is on the lower right near its anus. Attack it!"
Hearing Char\'s words, the player did not even think and did a beautiful somersault, his longsword firmly stabbing into the Green-scaled Gillman\'s heart, which was wriggling in its body.
It let out a cry, and its eyes started to turn white.
The player probably did not expect the monster to be killed so easily. He stood there in a daze and did not know how to dodge. Char quickly kicked him in the butt, and he fell forward in a terrible posture while avoiding the acid that shot out from the Gillman\'s body.
This was the bad thing about Green-scaled Gillman, as there was still a way out even after death, and Char had suffered a lot in his early years.
The player got up angrily and was about to ask Char why he kicked him when he saw the acid leaving a trail on the ground that was emitting white smoke. He was stunned.
[Player: Ninja Blade has requested to be your friend.]
Eh?
What did that mean?
Char, of course, chose to refuse.
\'Are you kidding me? Am I that kind of person?\'
Other than Char\'s previous friends, who was lucky enough to be his friends. Char would not add male friends!
Probably still waiting for him to accept, Ninja Blade stood there stupidly. Char had already pounced on the Green-scaled Gillman\'s corpse. He used his sword to cut open the corpse in no time, peeling off the scales, webs, and bones. It was done in less than five seconds, and there was not even a drop of green blood on his hands.
In this game, there were many demons and less players, so there was no such thing as protecting the spoils of war. If one followed behind players or NPCs for a long time, they would be infected with the de-buff called [Blasphemer] and would be attacked by monsters and spirits for no reason.
Char did not even kill the monster, and he was trying to steal his spoils of war? Of course, he would not let Char off so easily!
"Char!"
Mia quickly walked over, looked at him up and down with concern, wiped his sweat, and then purified the body with a raise of her hand.
Luckily Char did it quicklu.
At this moment, Ninja Blade finally reacted.
[Player: Ninja Blade has requested to be your friend. ]
Why was he so persistent?
Char still refused.
He glanced at the man\'s sword and uniform and came to a conclusion.
It was not hard to tell that this guy had some skill from his beautiful eyes. Since he could do that, he must have a good physical quality in real life. He might be a descendant of ancient martial arts or a Kendo master. Even though his name sounded like he was a Japanese idiot.
Those who could leave the novice village so quickly were not simple. Among thousands of players, there would always be one or two who were ridiculously strong, and the system had also set up a shortcut for these people. For example, Rylai or Ninja Blade, who was probably a Militia in the novice village.
There was a Militia Team in the novice village. Players could learn [Militia Swordsmanship] after becoming a level 5 Militia.
The Swordsmanship in "Fantasy World" was equivalent to a passive skill that could be switched on and off, which was the aura. However, only one aura could be activated at a time, and it could be upgraded through proficiency. When [Militia Swordsmanship] reached level 5, and the character\'s level did not exceed level 7, it would trigger an experience quest called [Marden\'s Appreciation].
Yes, Captain Marden.
He would have a solo match with you by using a wooden sword, and the rewards would be divided into three levels according to the results. The best would be to enter the city for training.
That was how Ninja Blade was sent to Astan City. Just like Rylai.
He was wearing the uniform of the Militias of Astan City, and his sword was also military standard longsword, which was slightly inferior to Char\'s sword. His profession must have changed to "Swordsman" along with this quest line. The most formal one, the template of all Swordsman professions, and his identity had changed from civilian to a Militia.
This could be considered a shortcut, but shortcuts always came with a price. For example, their daily patrol tasks, as well as their behavior being restricted by the faction.
It was still fine outside the city, but once they were deep inside the city, they had to beat up any hooligans they saw and stop any evil deeds. The reputation of idlers toward normal players was neutral, but they were cold and hostile toward soldiers, which was very troublesome to a certain extent.
[Player: Ninja Blade has requested to be your friend.]
He was not giving up...
"Can\'t you speak?" Char could not help but ask.
"Not now."
"Oh, alright."
Char accepted his friend request.
