Chapter 125: Desert Merchant Tezach

"Welcome back, Player Bladeheart!"

I spawned back to my mansion the moment I log back into the game. Since I promised the two siblings to allow them to use the mansion as a temporary settlement while farming some levels in the area, I modified the permission levels of my mansion.

Players who owned a house would be able to modify the permission levels of the house on whoever will be able to get inside it. If they are not listed to the permitted players, even if they fire a cannon to breach in, they will have no means of getting inside, making the houses as one of the safest places in the game for a player who owns it and whoever are permitted to get in.

After setting up the permission, I opened my inventory and checked the scrolls pocket. And just as expected, the scroll of teleportation appeared before me.

[Scroll of Teleportation: Waypoint(Sandurk Teleportation Portal)

Type: Scroll

Usage: Instant Use

Information: A scroll that creates a waypoint from the current location of the user to the current portal located on Sandurk.

Note: This is your one way ticket to Sandurk. Be proud to be a Pioneer!

Seeing the scroll in my inventory, it left me with great joy and a sense of accomplishment. Since all of my preparations are complete even though I am going to experience a new memory that is not present in the past timeline, I am kind of excited to know what kind of things I will be able to experience.

I took it out of my inventory and it materialize in my hands. I open it up and immediately tore the scroll into two.

A large magic circle for teleportation appeared on my feet and a panel of notification appeared.

[You will be teleported to Sandurk Region. This is a one way teleportation and you cannot return to Resurgia continent until the portal is repaired, proceed?]

[Yes/No]

(Note: If you click no, the torn scroll will be restored back to the inventory.)

Without hesitation, I clicked yes and the teleportation started to get warmer which is a very familiar feeling to me. And I was swallowed in a very bright light which lasted for 30 seconds. When the bright light faded and the color of the surroundings returned, I stood on the monumental structure that is made from both rock and metal. It was the Ancient Teleportation Device that has been non-functional after the raid boss appeared, which stops us from teleporting back to the Resurgia Continent.

The surroundings is hot since Sandurk is a continent of deserts though it is much cooler in towns and cities compared to the neutral and hostile zones where the hotness varies.

Also, when I have arrived, the panel of notification appeared before me.

Sandurk Quests Tutorial 1

[Welcome to Sandurk Continent!]

Type: Tutorial Quest

Reward: Desert Cloak, Hot Weather Resistance Potion

Information: Welcome to Sandurk Continent, Pioneer! As a new individual in this unknown continent, this is the chain quests that allows you to familiarize the new things you can find in this continent that isn't present or not explained properly back in your starting continent!

Objective:

-Talk to the Desert Merchant Tezach

This is a mandatory quest, which means I can't decline it. But who would decline it? But reading the name Desert Merchant Tezach, I think this isn't something I need to rejoice with. I have a different feeling about him but I should continue, maybe he will be different this time.

I didn't wait for anyone even Dolly and Harmless Sparrow and went on ahead on the quest. The sooner I am done, the better allowing me to gain more chances to sightsee around the place before I tackle the main pioneer quest to restore the teleportation machine.

Desert Merchant Tezach is a brown goblin carrying a large bag of goods alongside with his cart that contains various trinkets. I remember him as a shrewd merchant and has a bad reputation for overpriced goods. However, he is one of the merchants who sells different trinkets everyday and has a chance to sell some good and rare items that are very hard to come by as they only drop with bad chances. So it is recommended to check his stash once in a while to see what he is selling.

Because of Tezach's easy to spot cart and big bag behind him, he is easily spotted currently sitting on the side of the road, while eating some dumpling. He is also laying down some trinkets he is selling which means I came at right time when he is selling things. He only sell things on certain times in a day so many players who wanted to check on Tezach's goods would need to write a detailed time when he will sell things.

I approach him and crouch down to check his goods. Tezach is a jolly fellow so there is no need for you to feel bad at him unless you have a very low reputation and friendship points on him which will cause him to get angry at you.

"Hey there, new face! All of my goods are in top quality! You won't feel bad buying goods on me!" Tezach said.

"Oh, good morning. I am a new guy in this place and I still don't know what is going on in this place. Do you know any sort of tricks I needed to know while in this continent?"

"Is that so? Are you one of the rumored Pioneer that the goddess Titania is talking about?"

"Yes. That's right."

"Ohohoho, then you just talked to the one of the best owners that sells quality goods! I am Tezach, many knows me as the Desert Merchant Tezach, but hey! Since you are polite even though I am goblin, you can just call me Tezach without honorifics!"

-Friendship points of Tezach has risen.

Looks like he is still a very good guy to talk to.

"I am surprised you don't talk like most goblins talk with the "chiik-chiik" sound."

"Hahaha, living in the human society for too long allowed me to take on the habit of speaking properly and get that kind of way to talk out of my system. It is much better in business if you know how to talk properly after all."

"Is that so? Then do you have any recommendations for me to get while I am here? Since this is the first time I have gone in this place, maybe you have some thing you can introduce to me."

"Good! I know two things you needed in this continent to avoid having heat strokes which is an insane debuff. You can't keep on functioning if you are hit with it and it cannot be removed if you are under the hot sun in the desert! These two items are the best for you!"

He pulls out the two items out from his bag and throw it in front of me. It is the Desert Cloak and the Hot Weather Resistance Potion.

"These two are the best sellers! Desert Cloaks are items you can use to cover yourself while traversing the deserts! You will have less problems traversing the hot sands with this equipment as it lowers the effects of desert winds and the desert heat."

I pick up the item and inspected it, in case something changed from it.

[Desert Cloak]

Type: Consumable Item

Info: This cloak is one of the essential items you needed if you wanted to cross the desert by foot. With this, you will gain [Desert Wind Resistance] which prevents lowering your accuracy and [Desert Heat Resistance] which will lower your chances to increase your stamina usage and water consumption. Only last for 12 in-game hours.

Note: Do not use this as a piece of cloth to wear over your naked body. You will be captured by the guards and label you a "shameless exhibitionist"

Seeing the description is still the same, I nodded and take it with me, putting it in my inventory.

"Next one is the potion you might need, but not a compulsory one! If you have high heat resistance, then don't bother to drink this as you don't need it anymore. But hey, since you are still a beginner one in this place, I doubt you have high heat resistance trait with you or your equipment can last with that. With the [Hot Weather Resistance Potion], you will feel the less heat and will feel a little bit cooler temporarily once you drink this."

I grab the potion and also checked its description.

[Hot Weather Resistance Potion]

Type: Consumable Item

Info: A potion made out of different kinds of cactus juices that can cool your body once taken. It allows you to be immune to Heat Stroke debuff for 12 hours.

Note: Mmm... Tastes like Cactus Juice... wait... what does a cactus juice tastes like?!

These two are indeed the real deal. The quest did not tell any lies and Tezach didn't scam me.

"Those two items is necessary if you wanted to venture outside the town or cities in Sandurk without any problem."

"Thanks for the items!"

"Oy, wait for a moment, who said those things are free? Business is business mate, there is no way I will be giving out these things for free you know?! The total cost is 5 gold!"

F*ck, I knew it. Although this is a quest for tutorial, it is just an over pricing as always. In other stores, Desert cloak is 2 copper coins and Hot Weather Resistance Potions only costs 3 copper coins. If I wanted to continue the quests chain, I have to buy this overpriced goods! Screw this goblin!
