Chapter 1591: Value For Money

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The next day, when Wang Yu went online, the airship had already thrown his character at an alley in Twilight City.

Wang Yu felt emotional looking at the familiar streets and the friendly eyes of Twilight City’s players.

Home sweet home.

The Korean server was nothing like this as players there even dared to rob in broad daylight. Twilight City’s security was so much better. Everyone got along and did not even quarrel.

Leaving the port, Wang Yu arrived in a small alley where Hermit had been waiting for a long while.

“Hehe! You are back!” Hermit was not drunk today and was in high spirits. Seeing that Wang Yu was here to submit his quest, he welcomed him with a bright smile.

.

“Yup!” Wang Yu nodded.

“Have you brought back what I asked for?” Hermit asked again.

“Brought it!” Wang Yu said factually.

“Then quickly give it to me.” Hermit shamelessly walked to Wang Yu and used his dirty claws to search Wang Yu.

However, Wang Yu slightly slanted his body and dodged from his claws.

“Why? Don’t you want to submit your quest?”

Seeing how Wang Yu repelled him, he asked in shock.

Road of the Brave was a double S quest chain which was hard to come by. Its rewards were, of course, very generous. Wang Yu put in so much effort to find all the items yet, he did not want to submit them so Hermit could not understand what Wang Yu was thinking.

“It’s not that…” Wang Yu shook his head and said, “What rewards are there for this quest?”

“Haha!”

Hermit was also a cunning guy so hearing what Wang Yu said, he smiled and said, “Are you bargaining with me? Just say what you want. If I can give it to you, I will.”

“Alright!”

Wang Yu heard him and welcomely said, “I want these four quest items.”

“Ah?”

Hearing what Wang Yu said, Hermit was even more puzzled so he curiously asked, “What do you need them for?”

“To forge an equipment!”

As Wang Yu spoke, he took out a blueprint.

“This… this is?”

Looking at the blueprint in Wang Yu’s hands, Hermit was stunned and was in disbelief.

After a long while, Hermit pointed at the blueprint and yelled, “This is the blueprint to forge the God-slaying Demon-killing Bow?”

“That’s right!”

Wang Yu nodded once more.

Wang Yu did not immediately submit his quest because according to the blueprint in his hands, to forge the equipment, the required main ingredients were the four quest items he had.

As a martial artist, the most important thing was to have a weapon he liked. As for his other equipment, they were less important to him.

Hence, to Wang Yu, all the equipment he had on him added up were still incomparable to the Martial Artist’s Regret he had in his hand.

Although Martial Artist’s Regret could be changed into different weapons, it did not have a bow form so that was Wang Yu’s regret all this while.

Actually, as a weapon, bows were not rare in the game but after being used to God-grade weapons, Wang Yu was not used to normal weapons. Good equipment was something that he could not buy so with such a blueprint, Wang Yu naturally wanted to forge a weapon he would like.

Double S-grade quests like Martial God’s Path were very rare and came with generous rewards but to players, the most attractive things were equipment and skills.

Skills wise, Wang Yu had sufficient at the moment and as for equipment, he was no short of God-grade weapons, except for one good bow.

Hence, Wang Yu was curious about what rewards this quest would give.

If it was a bow that suited him, Wang Yu would not need to forge one but if it was other weapons or equipment, Wang Yu would rather not complete this quest.

“I didn’t think that as Dales’ master, you even went to Dragon Island…” Hermit said without expectation.

“It was just a coincidence!” Wang Yu said, “So, what is the reward for this quest?”

“Erm…” Hermit said, “Honestly, this quest’s reward is the pass for Dragon Island. You can use the pass to complete a trial on Dragon Island and after that, you can pick a God-grade weapon blueprint for your main job.”

“Hmm…”

Hearing what Hermit said, Wang Yu gave it some thought then said, “Sir, I have been quite nice to you all along, right?”

“Yes!” Hermit did not deny that.

As a player, Wang Yu was cautious about his manners towards NPCs. Every time he looked for Hermit, he would not come empty-handed. Such a good boy was hard to find in a game as after all, to most players, job mentors were just an NPC who would give them quests and teach them skills.

“Then be honest with me!” Wang Yu said upsetly, “Are you lying to me?”

Wang Yu did a quest with Prairie Fire before. Although Wang Yu did not ask, Prairie Fire did reveal how he landed his hands on the access pass.

Prairie Fire got it by just saving an NPC but Wang Yu had to do an SS-grade quest to get it? Wang Yu would definitely not believe Hermit even if he said he was telling the truth.

Wang Yu had no complaints about how hard the quest was but to blatantly mess with him, he crossed Wang Yu’s line as he should not be bullying an honest man.

“Lying to you?”

Hermit smiled and said, “Of course not. You are my only student.”

“So you are dead set on lying to me?” Wang Yu angrily said, “When I was doing this quest, I met someone with the access pass.”

“So what!” Hermit rebutted, “God-grade equipment are not all equal. In this world, you have to remember these three words.”

“Which three?” Wang Yu puzzledly said.

Hermit enunciated every word heavily and said, “Value, for, money!”

“You mean that I actually benefit from being cheated?” Wang Yu questioned with a frown after hearing those words.

“Haha!” Hermit laughed and said, “You understand things well!”

Hermit then said, “You aren’t exactly attractive so it is normal you get tougher quests. Furthermore, because of your unique identity and job, the rewards you get are also different from normal players. Don’t be superficial. Just look at an example for novels. Why were Immortal Iron Bull’s ones so much better?”

“This…”

Hearing Hermit explain, Wang Yu paused for a while then said, “I see, I understand, so this quest’s reward is?”

“Nevermind about the rewards!”

Wang Yu waved his hand in dismissal and said, “Anyway, you need these four quest items for another quest! Since you already have the God-grade weapon blueprint, I shall take it that you did a materials quest. Come, pass me the materials.”

“En!”

Wang Yu took out the Dragon’s Reverse Scale, God’s Honour, Heart of Flames and Obsidian Stone, and passed it to Hermit.

After Hermit received the materials, he spread open his left palm and laid the four materials on it. His right hand then gently rubbed across…

Instantly, gold, white, red and black rays of light shone out from Hermit’s palm.

Just then, Wang Yu received the quest completion notification.
