Chapter 373: Thunder Spirit Enchanted Bead, Preparation for Luncheon
Because this bead is a rare item!
And it's a type Zong Shen has never seen before.
"Good guy, have rare-level props become cabbage?"
"You can pick up this thing even if you go up the mountain to pick wild fruits?"
Zong Shen secretly clicked his tongue, even though this world is full of ruins.
But when something like "the crane repays a favor" actually happened in front of me.
Zong Shen still felt a little unbelievable.
The little boy didn't think so much.
He carefully placed the beads on the table with a respectful expression.
"I found this bead on the hill north of Bangcheng last year."
"It is beautiful. It emits a faint blue electric light at night. This is my most precious thing."
"In order to repay your generosity, I give it to you in the hope that it will bring you good luck."
The little boy said softly, Zong Shen's generosity made him feel very kind.
He was still timid when facing shopkeepers before.
Now standing in front of Zong Shen, he has become much calmer.
Zong Shen looked at him and checked his information.
It was discovered that the little boy was just an ordinary poor man from Bosbon. Although he had excellent qualifications, he was not a heroic talent.
He stretched out his hand and held the bead in his hand, looking at the little boy with a smile on his face.
"May I have your name?"
"My name is Felix..."
"Hello Felix, is there anyone else in your family?"
"Home…"
"My mother is the only one at home..."
"So Felix, would you like to take your mother with me?"
…
After a simple conversation, Zong Shen extended an olive branch to the little boy Felix.
Although through the guide prompts, he already knew the little boy's name before the conversation.
But this kind of cheesy conversation helps to bring them closer together.
After hearing Zong Shen's words, Felix hesitated.
There are people of all kinds in this world. Even if he is grateful for Zong Shen's kindness and generosity, he must still be cautious when facing this kind of problem.
"I can help you, and maybe I can cure your mother's disease."
"If you want, I can have my men go see your mother."
Zong Shen said in a leisurely tone, preparing to make the final attempt.
It just so happens that the territory currently lacks population, so every one can be counted as one.
Moreover, his qualifications are pretty good, he is young and has strong plasticity.
But if the little boy Felix really doesn't want to agree, then forget it.
Zong Shen didn't urge him, he just played with the small beads in his hand.
When he grabbed the bead, Zong Shen could feel the thunder magic elements in his body stirring.
After thinking for two or three minutes, the little boy nodded.
"Sir, I am willing to follow you!"
Zong Shen nodded and waved his hand gently to Haoyi.
The other hand waved under the table and took out a small bottle of Luna Spring from the storage compartment.
Put it on the table, reach out and push it gently.
"Howie, take Luna Spring and accompany Felix to have a look."
"Wait for us directly outside the central area in the afternoon."
At this time, the shopkeeper quietly looked at Zong Shen while bringing the fried beef patties up.
Seeing him and those immortal lancers in full armor, I felt awe-inspiring.
After receiving Zong Shen's instructions, Howie grabbed the small bottle containing the Moon God Spring in his hand.
He stood up, patted Felix on the back and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, since everyone is gone, don't be empty-handed."
"Take all the food with you."
Zong Shen pointed to the steaming hot beef pies that had just been served on the table.
After saying that, he poured the small wild fruits on the table and poured the beef pie on the plate into the straw basket.
"I understand, sir."
"Let's go Felix, you are lucky to be favored by adults."
Howie bowed slightly and saluted, and then left the snack bar with Felix.
Zong Shen casually greeted the shopkeeper and asked him to prepare fifteen more beef pies.
Then he looked at Vereesa, who was sitting at the side of the long table.
He took out an [Anti-Poison Pill (Blue)] and a bottle of [Intermediate Endurance Potion (Blue)], and handed these two things into Vereesa's hands.
"I'll be full soon. I might not be able to eat at noon."
"I'll leave these two things to you for later use."
"You accompany me to Evans' manor for an appointment at noon."
"Luna, just take Cecilia and the others around."
Zong Shen casually ordered that this was the arrangement he had made when he got up early.
Vereesa nodded obediently, and Luna also nodded with a worried look on her face.
At a banquet, the easiest place to start is the dishes.
All kinds of fancy poisons are simply impossible to guard against.
Fortunately, Zong Shen has a strategy module that can detect all disguises.
As long as he asks questions diligently enough, there will be no such thing as conspiracy.
After taking care of Felix's matter, Zong Shen finally had time to take a good look at the bead.
He opened his palm and saw that the bead actually responded to his body.
The moment he let go, several blue arcs of electricity were drawn out.
[Thunder Spirit Enchanted Bead (Purple)]
[Quality: rare grade]
[Can only be used once]
[Effect: Can enchant any weapon with thunder spirit]
[After using it, each attack of the weapon will cause an additional 35~38 points of thunder damage]
[And gain a passive skill and an active skill]
(This is a good thing, but you don’t have any suitable weapons suitable for enchanting now, so keep it for now)
As the guide says, this is definitely a good thing.
Unfortunately, Zong Shen does not have any weapons suitable for enchantment.
His current configuration mainly includes shield-sword style and dual-sword style.
There is also a rare [Trident of Wind, Fire and Thunder], which has its own special effects, so the enchantment beads cannot be used.
When facing powerful enemies, there are also [Broken Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword (Orange)] and [Broken Disaster War Spear (Orange)].
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Although the latter is an orange legendary weapon, without exception, it is all in a damaged state.
Especially the Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword, its durability is running low.
When Zong Shen got it, its durability only had 150 points left.
After this period of use, the cracks on it have expanded a lot.
The durability is only 107 points left.
This is the result of Zong Shen's careful care.
With his previous fighting intensity, he simply didn't dare to use it with all his strength.
The durability of the other Disaster War Spear is much higher than that of the Dragon-Slaying Heavy Sword.
When Zong Shen took over, there were still 380 points left, but this guy was too big.
It is not suitable for use by ordinary human body types.
Just the spear body, which was as thin as an arm, made Zong Shen unable to grasp it freely.
Unless you can enter the violent bear state and expand your body shape.
Otherwise, this thing really doesn't work.
Zong Shen felt like he had no strength and was unable to exert his full strength.
So this is also one of the problems Zong Shen is currently facing.
He lacks a weapon that is powerful enough, highly durable, and easy to use.
This [Thunder Spirit Enchanted Bead (Purple)] can only be temporarily sealed.
He must wait until Zong Shen obtains a weapon that is suitable enough before he can consider using it.
This can be considered an unexpected gain.
Maybe there might be some ruins buried deep for many years on the hill to the north of Bangcheng.
This is not impossible.
The history of this entire continent is beyond imagination.
If we call the current continent a new era.
So so far, most of the ruins that Zong Shen has come into contact with are from the previous era.
Ten thousand to twenty thousand years may seem like a long time, but in fact it is just the blink of an eye for the entire continent.
In this case, this raises a question: what was the situation like on the mainland before the last era?
Are there more powerful civilizations or races?
All this needs to wait for Zong Shen’s exploration.
The legacy of the predecessors is the wealth of future generations.
Death can take away life, but it leaves a legacy.
After Zong Shen sighed in his heart, he put away the [Thunder Spirit Enchantment Bead].
The new beef patties were quickly brought out by the shopkeeper.
Zong Shen glanced at it with his eyes, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with the food, he started eating with confidence.
Everyone started eating and drinking at his greeting.
The taste of the beef pie is mediocre and far inferior to the skill of the castle chef.
But it has a different flavor.
Zong Shen was already prepared not to eat at noon, so he took advantage of this meal to replenish his hunger and fullness.
Keep your energy in good condition at all times.
After the novice period ends, if the hunger and satiety level is too low, it will affect the status and attributes.
This makes daily meals an essential part.
This meal consisted of thirty-one beef pies and more than a dozen other foods.
The total cost was less than 12 dinars.
For Zong Shen, this price is simply cheap, let alone cheaper.
It almost ate up half a month's salary of a village maid.
The prices in this small store are quite affordable.
The real gold-selling caves have to be those taverns.
A few glasses of wine will cost you a few dozen dinars.
After eating and drinking, Zong Shen and the others walked out of the snack bar under the courtesy of the shop owner.
Bajie, Black Panther and the Andalusian war horses are all in place.
It's not that no one has any ideas for them, but these guys are very smart.
Whether it is Bajie or the Sentinel Black Panther, they both possess a certain level of combat effectiveness.
The Andalusian war horse is a high-quality war horse with high intelligence and a resolute and stubborn character.
This leaves those who want to take advantage of the situation at a loss.
Starting from the castle in the central area, they first walked around several streets.
Then we had another snack.
It's already past ten o'clock in the morning.
The scope of Bosbon City is not small, and Evans' manor is in another direction.
If we set off now, it will take at least half an hour.
Just in time to arrive at Evans' manor around 11 o'clock.
He can't wait to deal with Evans now.
After all, there are two tasks at the Evans manor at the same time.
"Let's set off to Evans' manor now."
"Veresa and I will ride Bajie in later."
"The others separated from us on a street in advance to avoid arousing his suspicion."
Zong Shen rode on Bajie, turned his head and said to the Immortal Lancers and Luna.
Everyone nodded and their lances were polished.
After the final confirmation, Zong Shen led the team forward under the guidance of the strategy module.
…
At the same time, in Evans' manor.
The restaurant on the first floor has been tidied up.
Several chefs wearing chef hats are busy in the spacious kitchen.
One by one, the strangely shaped fresh seafood was taken out from the frost cold storage in the manor.
Sent to the kitchen.
All these seafood come from the vast East China Sea of the mainland.
A rare delicacy for any inland city.
Among them, the majority are carapace, arthropods and shellfish.
The shapes are similar to the seafood on Earth, but they are much larger.
Among them is a kind of crustacean seafood that is similar to the King Crab on Earth.
It is half the size of a normal human body and has ten thick crab legs.
The carapace all over its body is covered with uneven spikes.
It looks like it weighs at least forty or fifty pounds.
There are also head-sized white scallops and palm-long East China Sea lobsters.
These giant lobsters have a pair of huge claws, each as wide as three knuckles.
Last night Zong Shen served a dish at Baron Bezos's castle that used East China Sea lobster as raw material.
The large claws of this kind of shrimp are especially delicious, and the meat of the shrimp body is also very good.
In addition to these raw seafood, cattle and sheep that were roughly slaughtered and peeled were also sent to the kitchen.
There are also common vegetables, poultry, and other ingredients.
It was obvious that Evans took this luncheon very seriously.
Those fresh seafood are rare items in Bospan.
Even if you have money, you can't buy much, because airships from the East China Sea only choose to go to Bosbon every three months.
Evans was wearing a decent dress and was standing at the door of the manor with his confidant butler Isidore.
The gate of the manor where Zong Shen met last night was currently open.
This is a rare occurrence for the Evans estate.
Many travelers and passers-by looked at the situation inside the manor with curious eyes.
Evans disagreed with this, and was instructing his men to lay a red welcome carpet at the door.
In order to make the carpet not look monotonous.
He also asked his men to sprinkle a layer of flower petals on top as a decoration.
Only in this way can it be considered insurance for him.
He had to make Zong Shen feel that he was taken seriously.
In Evans' eyes, Zong Shen is a big fish.
As everyone knows, Zong Shen is not only a big fish, but also a big shark that can swallow him!
"Isidore, what time is it now?"
Everything is almost arranged and the ingredients have been sent to the kitchen.
There will be at most one hour until the meeting starts.
According to the dining habits of the aborigines, most of them start eating from 11:30 to 12 noon.
So Evans also prepared according to this time period.
I saw the butler Isido take out a pocket watch from his breast pocket.
Open the watch cover with your thumb and take a look at the current time.
