Chapter 176 Inquiry
"Do you have any better weapons? As long as they are good, I will buy them right away."
The weapons presented by the businessman in front of him were unattractive. Wang Zhifan took out the money bag from his trouser pocket and threw it in his hand, indicating that he had plenty of money and was a good customer.
But what he didn't expect was that when the middle-aged white businessman in bright striped clothes saw him doing this, his expression immediately became a little subtle. He glanced at the money bag in his hand and said:
"My friend, if you want a better weapon than what I have, it's not enough to just spend this little money. You have to come up with at least fifty gold coins as a deposit. After I go to Frost Harbor to purchase the goods, you can pay another three hundred gold coins or a high-level magic core."
"Frost Harbor? Demon core?"
Wang Zhifan immediately learned some new information, and began to shamelessly gossip with this person about the relevant content. He did not leave until the other person realized that he had no intention of purchasing and ignored him.
After obtaining some new information, Wang Zhifan then harassed several other vendors in the camp market, such as an old woman selling potions and an old man selling jewelry. He felt that although the market was not big, the items sold were quite complete, but the level of the items was not high enough. They were only at the level of Fine Tier, and he had no desire to buy.
"This camp seems to be just a very low-end NPC gathering place. If I want to find better equipment, I guess I have to go to Rogue Town, or even Frost Harbor further away."
After exploring so much, Wang Zhifan was planning to leave. He decided to finally visit other places in the camp before setting off.
So ten minutes later, he came to a corner of this large camp. A relatively simple blacksmith shop was supported by a wooden shed in the corner. In the blacksmith shop, a very strong old man with a white beard was constantly swinging a big hammer in his hand to hit a big sword on the iron felt. Every time he hit it, many sparks would fly around, which was very impactful.
Originally, such an ordinary blacksmith shop was not enough to attract Wang Zhifan's attention, but his super-high perception brought by his super-high spiritual attributes told him that the strong old blacksmith in the blacksmith shop in front of him was not just a muscular old man. His body contained vitality far beyond that of ordinary people, and he also had extraordinary energy that could not be ignored! In other words, this old blacksmith is definitely not an ordinary person, or was not an ordinary person before! "This old man should be the professional that the businessman mentioned before. He is blacksmithing here so low-key, maybe he is some hidden NPC..."
After secretly judging that this muscular old white man might not be an ordinary person, Wang Zhifan quickly approached him and started asking in the same way.
"Hello! I want a weapon of the highest quality. What is the best quality you can build here? Do you have a sample that I can take a look at?"
While talking, Wang Zhifan, who had learned the previous lesson, had already concentrated all his coins in a money bag. He took the heavy money bag and tossed it in his hand to show that he was really a potential customer.
"Young man, I don't have samples here. I will make you whatever you want. As for the price, I will make as good equipment for you as many gold coins as you give me."
When the strong old man saw Wang Zhifan coming over to ask, he just raised his eyelids and glanced at him, then continued to turn his eyes back to the work at hand, and replied a few words in a very casual tone.
"Gold coins are not a problem."
Wang Zhifan answered him casually in the same tone, and then he took out another weapon in his hand, which was his former weapon, Blade of the Wolf Fiend. As for his current weapon Thunder Dragon Rageblade, he put it away after entering the camp because it was too eye-catching and was not conducive to hiding his identity.
"I want to build a better weapon than this long knife. Can you do it?"
Wang Zhifan asked while passing the Blade of the Wolf Fiend in his hand to the old blacksmith.
His act of taking out a physical object immediately attracted the attention of the muscular old man in the blacksmith shop. The other party first raised his head casually and glanced at the Blade of the Wolf Fiend in his hand, and then his eyes became serious. He stared at the long knife in his hand for several seconds, and then slowly said:
"Young man, this weapon of yours is already good enough, but you're still not satisfied? If you want to build a weapon stronger than it, money alone is not enough. You have to collect the highest-grade building materials yourself. Only when the materials are available can I help you."
When he heard that the old man in front of him actually had a way to make weapons above Rare Tier, Wang Zhifan suddenly became a little interested, and he immediately asked:
"Excuse me, what specific materials are needed to build it?"
"Haha..."
The muscular old man with a white beard who had turned his gaze from the Blade of the Wolf Fiend in Wang Zhifan's hand back to the iron felt chuckled twice when he heard his question, and then paused for two seconds before replying:
"It must be the highest-grade materials, such as Mithril, Dark Gold, Elemental Stone, Demon Core, etc... Young man, it is not easy for you to find all these materials. Collecting them all is like a dream. Give up as soon as possible... The weapon in your hand is already of a very good level."
The muscular old blacksmith with a white beard directly persuaded Wang Zhifan to give up this unrealistic idea.
"Maybe... but thank you anyway."
After this simple exchange, Wang Zhifan roughly judged that Rare Tier's equipment in this world is of quite high quality. Higher-level Excellent Tier equipment should also exist, but the quantity must be extremely rare.
After saying that, he was about to turn around and leave, burrowing into the ground to stay away from the camp.
But at this moment, a thin figure with most of his face covered and only his eyes exposed appeared more than 20 meters behind him.
This man appeared rather suddenly, as if he suddenly jumped out from a distance. He was dressed in black and walked quickly. He went straight to the muscular old blacksmith's shop. First, he glanced at Wang Zhifan next to him with his cold eyes. He paused for a subtle moment when his eyes were on Blade of the Wolf Fiend in Wang Zhifan's hand, and then turned to ask the old man in the shop.
"How much will it cost for me to build the best dagger?"
The masked man in black made a sound that didn't sound weird at all to Wang Zhifan.
"Three hundred gold coins."
The old man in the shop saw that this man was dressed a little strangely, so he raised his head and looked at him twice more, and then answered.
"How many days will it take to get the goods?"
The masked man asked again.
"At least three days."
The old muscle blacksmith replied immediately.
"Okay, here's a 100-yuan deposit. I'll be here in three days."
After speaking, the thin, masked man threw a heavy money bag onto the old man's stall, and then quickly disappeared into the air.
