Chapter 64 - 64 The Value of the Body Strengthening Spell!
64 The Value of the Body Strengthening Spell!
“It’s done!”
As soon as he returned to the ward, Lin Bei told his sister the good news.
At this moment, Lin Jing had already checked into a single ward. The environment was much better than before.
“Brother, thank you!”
“We’re siblings. There’s no need to thank me!”
Lin Bei waved his hand and smiled. “But we still have to wait two days for the medicine to arrive. You’ll have to suffer a few more days.”
“It’s fine! It’s only a couple of days. I’ve survived for five years!”
“Little sister, it’s been hard on you.”
When Lin Bei heard this, he felt a little sad.
However, he quickly recovered. No matter what, Lin Jing was about to recover!
When the time came, their family would be together and they would no longer have to work hard.
Lin Bei chatted with Lin Jing for a while before leaving the hospital.
It was not that he did not want to stay, but time was tight. He still had many things to do.
After getting a taxi and returning to the dormitory, Lin Bei did not hesitate and went online.
He temporarily put the matter of the genetic strengthening potion aside.
Right now, he only had one goal, and that was to farm monsters and level up! When he reached Level 30, he could equip the Tainted Blood Magic Blade. At that time, his strength would definitely improve!
At the same time, he had to farm more Mutated Bosses. When the time came, he would sell some things in exchange for Bobo Coins.
Now, his Mutated Blood could store 10 mutation chances every 6 hours. As long as he had enough monster blood, he could farm Mutated Bosses infinitely!
And monster blood was not difficult for him to obtain.
As long as he found a Boss that he could extract blood from, he could extract their blood after killing them. Moreover, with the +200% drop rate, he could obtain at least 3 portions of monster blood every time he extracted it. Therefore, as long as he controlled it well, he could kill the Boss indefinitely!
“By the way, it’s rare for me to come back to the Holy Light Village. I should go take a look at Shopkeeper Jin. Previously, with the Buff he gave me, I could obtain so much equipment in the early stages. If not for him, I wouldn’t have developed so quickly!”
As soon as Lin Bei went online, he appeared near the warehouse of the Holy Light Village. Thinking of Shopkeeper Jin, who had helped him a lot previously, he immediately rushed towards the grocery store of the Holy Light Village.
Because he had the Buff of the Stealth Potion, the players of the Holy Light Village could not discover him at all.
Soon, Lin Bei arrived at the grocery store.
“Shopkeeper Jin, long time no see!”
As soon as he entered, Lin Bei smiled and greeted him.
Although the number of players in the Holy Light Village was more than ten times higher than before, there were still not many players who came to the grocery store. After all, the server had only opened for a day and a half. Everyone had to spend their game coins carefully. Only some rich people or guild leaders could come to the grocery store to buy potions.
Now, Shopkeeper Jin was lounging on the recliner in boredom. He was extremely satisfied.
“Yo, it’s you, kid! It’s only been a day since we last met, but you’ve changed completely!”
Shopkeeper Jin’s eyes lit up. He immediately jumped up from the recliner and went to the counter. He sized Lin Bei up and sniffed carefully. Then, he said in surprise, “Eh, why is the smell of vigor energy on your body so strong? Did you eat some elixir?”
“Huh? No.”
Lin Bei was stunned when he heard this. Then, he thought of his Full of Vigor skill and explained, “I was lucky previously and obtained a skill book called ‘Full of Vigor’. I used it directly. You said that my vigor energy is rich, right?”
“What! Full of Vigor? You, you, you…”
When Shopkeeper Jin heard this, he lost his composure as if he had lost his soul. He pointed at Lin Bei for a long time and could not say a word.
“Shopkeeper Jin, it’s just an ordinary skill book. Do you have to be so excited?”
Seeing Shopkeeper Jin’s violent reaction, Lin Bei could not help but think of what Goblin Merchant Bobo had said when he saw the Body Strengthening Spell. He was intrigued and he deliberately said this.
“Ordinary? What do you know! Kid, you… you really make me cry from envy! Your luck is much better than mine!”
Shopkeeper Jin stomped his feet when he heard this. The fat on his body swayed, making Lin Bei’s heart ache. Lin Bei was afraid that he would fall to the ground accidentally.
“Is there anything special about Full of Vigor?”
Lin Bei asked curiously.
“Anything special? There are too many things!”
Shopkeeper Jin paced back and forth anxiously and said, “This thing might be as simple as increasing your strength to you, but to me or some older people, this thing can be used to extend their lifespan! Do you understand what I’m saying?”
“Longevity extension?”
Lin Bei’s eyes lit up.
So that was how it was!
I knew it. If it was just to increase physical strength, a Body Strengthening Spell should not be able to sell for a high price.
However, if it could extend the lifespan of these NPCs, everything would make sense!
This was akin to buying their life!
How could it not be expensive?
Especially for some NPCs whose lifespan was about to reach its limit, the skill’s importance was self-evident!
“But Shopkeeper Jin, you look like a middle-aged man. You don’t really need this thing, right?”
Lin Bei asked.
“Nonsense, just because I don’t need it now doesn’t mean I won’t need it in the future! It’s not a loss to save some of these things in advance!”
“That makes sense!”
Lin Bei nodded.
“However, I’m indeed not using it for myself. Sigh, forget it. It’s useless to tell you. How about this? If you have such good things in the future, you can give them to me first. I’ll buy them at a high price!”
Shopkeeper Jin sighed and said to Lin Bei, “I’ll pay Bobo coins. You should have seen Bobo, right? That old fellow sold me a Body Strengthening Spell not long ago for 2,000 Bobo coins. As for your Full of Vigor, What a pity. If you hadn’t used it but sold it to me, I’d be willing to pay 10,000 Bobo coins. Forget it, this kind of thing can only be chanced upon by luck. Next time, be careful. I’ll buy it at a high price!”
“A Body-strengthening Spell… for how much?”
“2,000 Bobo coins. Speaking of which, I was still puzzled. This Bobo has always been extremely cunning. I didn’t expect him to be willing to sell it to me for only 2,000 Bobo coins. How magical!”
Shopkeeper Jin said, “I’ve dealt with him for so many years, but this is the first time I’ve seen him like this. I was already prepared to be ruthlessly ripped off by him, but I didn’t expect him to ask for 2,000 Bobo coins. Tsk tsk, it’s worth it.”
Lin Bei was speechless.
Alright, I’ll remember this!
Lin Bei thought fiercely.
He originally thought that no matter how bad Bobo’s reputation was, it should be limited.
However, after hearing Shopkeeper Jin’s words, he realized that he was wrong!
And it was ridiculously wrong!
Damn it, I only got 100 Bobo coins!
In the end, he sold it for 2,000 Bobo coins!
Most importantly, the customers even felt that they had made a killing. Damn, who should I reason with?
“Eh, what’s wrong?”
Shopkeeper Jin looked at Lin Bei and asked curiously.
“No… nothing. I just heard that a Body Strengthening Spell can be sold for so much money. I find it a little unbelievable!”
“Hehe, kid, you’re still unwilling to tell the truth! In my opinion, the Body Strengthening Spell from before is yours, right?”
A glint flashed in Shopkeeper Jin’s eyes as he said with a smile, “It’s alright. I can understand your feelings. I was also tricked a few times in the past, but… you’ll learn from your mistakes! There’s still a long way to go!”
“Uh…”
Lin Bei was a little helpless. Was my behavior that obvious?
Also, why did he feel that none of these NPCs were easy to deal with?
“Alright, I think you’re really lucky. If you have anything you don’t understand in the future, you can come and ask me in advance. I’ll estimate the price for you. At that time, you won’t have to be tricked by that old fellow.”
“Thank you, Shopkeeper Jin!”
“It’s fine! It’s just that if you have something like the Body Strengthening Spell or Full of Vigor, remember to sell them to me!”
“Good!”
“Alright, you can’t come to me for nothing this time. How about this? I’ll give you something.”
As he spoke, Shopkeeper Jin touched a gem ring on his hand and a wooden box appeared in his hand.
“I obtained this thing back then. It’s a seed that has lost its vitality. Take it and try your luck.”
Lin Bei took the wooden box and opened it. His expression changed.
This thing… was not simple!
Seed of the World Tree: Legendary item. Its vitality has been severed and it can’t grow.
“Legendary item?”
Lin Bei was a little confused.
“Hehe, it’s something above the Extraordinary level.”
Seeing that Lin Bei was in a daze, Shopkeeper Jin explained, “Damn, I was shot in the knee because of this. Otherwise, I would have been taking adventures like you!”
“Ah, about that…”
Lin Bei wanted to say something but hesitated.
Although he sympathized with Shopkeeper Jin, but… that guy was jumping up and down just now. I didn’t see your knees hurt. Are you sure you didn’t deliberately find an excuse to retire in the Holy Light Village?
Of course, he kept these words to himself.
To be able to obtain a legendary item above the extraordinary level, Shopkeeper Jin was definitely not simple. He was at least an extraordinary existence and was not someone Lin Bei could provoke now.
“By the way, give this letter to Alina after you see her.”
Shopkeeper Jin took out a golden envelope and handed it to Lin Bei. He smiled and said, “Young man, I think highly of you!”
A golden light landed on Lin Bei.
You have received Shopkeeper Jin’s blessing! Treasure drop rate +100%! Enhancement success rate +100%! Duration: 2 hours!
Unlimited Buff Talent in effect! The duration of Shopkeeper Jin’s Blessing has become permanent!
Lin Bei: ???
What happened?
