Chapter 48: Portable Guardian Crossbow (Middle-Grade)

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The system announcement caused another uproar amongst the players!

Job-changing missions required players to reach level 10. After that, one could find a job mentor to accept the mission. According to the grade of NPCs sought, missions were divided into five levels similar to dungeons: Simple, Normal, Difficult, Master, Expert.

Completion of Simple mission would grant a player a job-changing certificate.

Completion of Normal mission would grant a player to learn an extra normal skill and training suggestions.

Completion of Difficult mission would grant a player mission for that job. Upon completion of that mission, one could receive items for the job. For example, a mount for Forward Charge Paladin summoned beast for Summoners. It was the greatest goal for normal players to complete the Difficult mission.

Shard of Dark Gold equipment and its lead would be rewarded for Master mission.

A torn treasure map would be rewarded for Expert mission.

Looking at the reward, most players would choose the Difficult mission as it was the most cost-effective one.

Eighteen Massacres had chosen a Simple mission and could only get a certificate for job-changing. Moreover, because of the lack of “Absence of Firm Belief in Victory,” Eighteen Massacres was not liked by the mentors in Holy Church. He could only eliminate their prejudice against him after completing a series of low-paid Holy Church missions.

In Lin Jie’s previous life, Eighteen Massacres had completed the Expert mission! Again, history had changed.

Lin Jie sighed for no reason. In the long run, it had a great impact on the strength of Eighteen Massacres. But now, his fame was soaring in an instant. The first person in the ranking and the first person in job-changing could revitalize the Kingdom of Glory.

The very next moment, a post appeared on the forum: Eighteen Massacres will lead the elite team of the Kingdom of Glory to explore the Difficult-level of Castle Wood.

Within half a minute, the Wine God Elder sent in a message, “Fu Sheng, Eighteen Massacres is a very strong competitor. I’m not sure I’ll get the first clear in the Difficult-level.” Wine God added with a solemn face, “My team is still in the exploratory stage for the time being. The strength of Timmy the werewolf is a little unsatisfactory.”

It was such a pain to suppress the reputation of the Kingdom of Glory, how could they be granted another chance?

Lin Jie smiled and said, “I’ll give you a surprise. Hehe.”

“Eh…?” Wine God was stunted.

In Blacksmith’s Shop in the City of Light.

Blue’s strong arms tempered the raw form of the sword regularly. The short sword was covered with a red flame of high temperature when it was completed. It was then put into the Cold Spring at the side.

Sizzzz-

A cloud of smoke rose.

“Done!”

“Hey, don’t go! I’ve still some more here!”

“We must get the equipment!”

The Blacksmith’s Shop had been crowded with players since the forger Blue had been upgraded. Because he was a pro, there was a limited supply of Bronze items created by Blue, and the refresh time was uncertain. Many headhunters especially stayed there for a long time and immediately bought the equipment once it was refreshed.

Blue carried the equipment outside and shouted, “Move away!” After all, he had leveled up, and he was very confident.

Players flattered and laughed while moving aside. When the equipment was on the shelf, everyone rushed up.

“Business is good, isn’t it?” A familiar voice sounded.

“You don’t say, I’m Master Blue…” Blue answered half angrily, and quickly stopped the second half of the sentence after looking carefully, “My Lord, long time no see.”

Blue’s personality was rather simple, in other words, he was stubborn. He believed that the reason why he could have a breakthrough was all bestowed by Lin Jie. In addition, Lin Jie had said at that time, “I won’t hold you accountable if you fail.” The muscular and simple-minded man had been touched for several days.

Players were shocked. The master’s temper was notoriously bad. How could he be so polite to this person?

Everyone was stunned when they saw the red name of Lin Jie.

“What?”

“Entering the city with a red name?”

“No, it’s not a red name. It’s almost purple! Has this guy killed hundreds of people?”

Yes, Lin Jie’s red name had been hard to eliminate since he was outsmarted by the mission of the Light Priest Yatasha. However, he gained quite a lot of prestige. Entering the city with a red name was such a trivial matter! Lin Jie had long been accustomed to the envy and jealousy of the crowd.

“Master Blue, I want you to help me forge something,” Lin Jie said, “a Portable Guardian Crossbow and 100 arrows. I don’t have the materials for the time being, but I can pay you with gold coins.”

The so-called Guardian Crossbow was also known as the Siege Crossbow! It was heavy, long-ranged, and it could cause terrifying damage. It was the necessary weapon to bring down a city. Of course, its forging materials were also extremely valuable. That Portable Guardian Crossbow, as its name implied, had greatly reduced its attributes in all aspects. The only special thing about it was that it could be carried by players rather than fixed on the wall.

Of course, as a cost of lightness, the Portable Guardian Crossbow could only be used 100 times before getting destroyed.

The price of large equipment increased with the pricing system in the game. For example, when the players were still using mostly silver coins, the cost of a Portable Guardian Crossbow was 15 gold coins! If Lin Jie did not have the title of “Viscount” and some friendship with Master Blue, he would not really want to get a huge crossbow at this stage.

Only a Senior Blacksmith or Engineer was qualified to forge a Portable Guardian Crossbow.

Blue scratched his shiny bald head in embarrassment. “My Lord, this…”

“I know your dilemma. This is a special case. I sincerely hope you can help me.” Lin Jie nodded. “Rest assured, I can promise you that this crossbow will not be used in wars against other human beings or for research and sale. I can sign a contract with you.”

As an NPC, Blue had its own constraints, such as not being able to sell items beyond the level to players. But for Lin Jie, it was an exception.

“Well, come and get it in three hours.” Blue gritted his teeth.

The Blacksmith’s Shop in the City of Light was temporarily closed! All players were pushed out.

“What the… What’s the situation? I haven’t bought any equipment yet.”

“Hahaha, suit yourself. That’s the karma for pushing me away.”

Lin Jie pulled on the cape hood while many players were shouting. In the blink of an eye, he had disappeared in the street corner…

Three hours later, there was another world announcement – The Brotherhood, led by the Wine God Elder, had cleared the Difficult-Level of Castle Wood!

Two minutes later, the Ironwall Empire, with the help of Lin Jie, cleared the Difficult-level of Castle Wood too. At that time, the Kingdom of Glory had only completed 85% of it. There was no doubt that two loud slaps had landed heavily in their faces.

Dozens of bottles of Lineage Potion had been fed to Timmy, killing the Boss was simply as simple as cutting melons and vegetables.

At the same time, the Portable Guardian Crossbow Lin Jie wanted was also forged successfully. Lin Jie paid 15 gold coins for materials and 5 gold coins for forging! The 20 gold coins that he had withdrawn not for long had disappeared.

Lin Jie sighed. “What a spendthrift…”

Then, he checked the attributes of the giant crossbow.

Portable Guardian Crossbow (Middle-Grade)

No job restriction

Requires: Level 5

Strength: 40 and above

Attack: 10-10

Armor Piercing: +50

Armor Ignore: +50

Mid-air Smash: +50

Additional effect: Portable Guardian Crossbows are allowed for disassembling, which takes half an hour to get disassembled and reassembled.

Weight: 500 pounds

The damage of the crossbow was not caused by it but from the crossbow arrow. The 100 silver crossbow arrows at hand were the ammunition to the guardian crossbow. Attack increase by 100! That was also the only weapon that the Portable Guardian Crossbow could bear. Strong arrows such as the Mithril arrows would cause this portable crossbow to explode once it was launched, not to mention the legendary Elemental arrows.

With Blue’s help, the crossbow was quickly dismantled, taking only 10 minutes! If Lin Jie disassembled it alone, it would take half an hour! The parts of the portable crossbow were packed full in the backpack. Carrying 500 pounds of material had a huge impact on Lin Jie’s movement speed, making him “overweight” and move like a crawling turtle – as players’ level increased, bearable load increased accordingly. There was an upper load limit for each level. Once the load exceeded the upper limit, it would affect the movement speed of the players, commonly known as overweight.

By the time Lin Jie arrived at his destination, it had been an hour and a half. If he was moving at a normal speed, it was estimated that he could have reached his destination 30 minutes!

Forest City

Whether one was in the City of Light, Sunshine City, or in other cities, they could be teleported to Forest City. Forest City was inhabited by many decaying creatures. It was a degenerate city! It was said that there were many temples, Bosses, hidden treasures, etc.

In Lin Jie’s previous life, Ophadi Wantless had explored the Forest City once and said that he had found an enclosed shrine, and there had been a Soul of All God at the gate. Many players had treated it as a joke.

Rotten wood could be seen everywhere.

Sporadic buds seemed to be telling people that there was no lack of vitality here. It was worth mentioning that in the city, there was a hot spring pool for dark elves. By immersing in it, the recovery speed of players could be increased…

Lin Jie walked towards the interior of the Forest City. The rocky ground was covered with sharp stones like bamboo shoots. This was a spawning ground for Agaricus Spinosa. It belonged to Undead Plant, sleeping all year round. If players hit the sharp objects on the top accidentally, they would be cut, and the taste of fresh blood stimulated the awakening of Agaricus Spinosa.

The dense mushroom array was like mine array!

Although Lin Jie’s movement speed had decreased sharply, he still ran through the mushroom array with the memory of his previous life memory and continued to walk deep into the forest. Every step seemed to lower his altitude, but this was not an illusion. The Forest City contained a strange magic array of space. It was said that whoever unlocked the magic array could get a very generous reward straight away!

Dong-

Dong-

The earth suddenly shook. Looking at the coordinates, Lin Jie knew that he was near.

Broken limbs and flesh were everywhere. The broken wings of a bat fluttered vigorously. It grabbed a cat, the size of a cattle, and swallowed it. Blood splashed all over the place.

It was a Bat Demon!

Animal species would always evolve, perhaps due to magical mutations, or because of devouring other species, as well as other reasons. For example, the well-known Vicious Bird had its leader evolved in wisdom and turned into demigods. It gave its power to the beasts which practiced the Druid way so that the Druids broke away from the status of beasts at once and became a species of wisdom, on an equal footing with humans.

At present, this Bat Demon was a sad existence. Its life was full of huge tragedies simply because it had failed to evolve! It had swallowed up to tens of thousands of its fellows in the Forest City, and even a corpse of a middle-ranking mage. Thus, it had gained a fearsome magic power. It possessed half-human wisdom, but was driven by instinct, and had been nestled in the dark Forest City devouring creatures walking past.

But it could not fly! Heavy head and great power became its fetters, making it lose the power to endure a flight.
