Riding and slashing the world.
After delivering the beef, Zhang Qi only had more than 1,100 dinars left. He didn't plan to go to the arena during this time. The money was coming slowly, and the progress of practice would not be as fast as before.
So in the next twenty days or so, he had to focus on making money, so that he would have the capital and enough trump cards on his way to escape.
The idea had been in place for a long time, and blacksmithing was the only way out.
After more than twenty days in the arena, the prices of items in Boros have changed. Zhang Qi guessed that the market price has been adjusted due to the supplies delivered by villages and caravans. Without the intervention of players, the prices of items in Boros have changed for a long time. There will be no more fluctuations for a long time.
A piece of wood used to cost 56 dinars, but now it has dropped to 20. Of course, this is certainly not comparable to the single-digit price of wood at Xiao Nong, but it is also within Zhang Qi's psychological range, plus it has dropped to 60 pieces of iron ore, if everything goes well, he can still make money.
If it doesn't go well, then he has only one way to go: the arena.
As for going to Xiaonong, it is not impossible, but as mentioned before, the road to Xiaonong is not smooth.
The game is no longer the same game as before. Zhang Qi's panel has been extensively changed.
The six main attributes and corresponding skills in the character panel [Activity, Control, Resistance, Cunning, Society, and Wisdom] have all disappeared, replaced by six completely different skills.
And only one of these six skills is clearly displayed now:
Power Level 0 Skill: [Virtual and Real]
[Virtuality and reality, true or false, true or false, true or false, where the boundary between reality and illusion is, can only be decided by you. 】
Everything else is still a question mark.
Like the character panel, the family column has also been changed.
Now there is no family level on Zhang Qi's panel, replaced by something called [power level].
The [Power Level] is currently only level 0, and the method of upgrading is currently unknown.
Judging from the skill panel, Zhang Qi guessed that the remaining five unshown skills may also be related to this [power level].
Zhang Qi shook his head and got rid of the messy thoughts in his mind. His main purpose now was to make money. After making money, he would think about these things.
For 1,100 dinars, Zhang Qi first bought two pieces of wood and ran to the blacksmith shop. When he opened the blacksmith panel, Zhang Qi became nervous. If the blacksmith shop became more scientific, he would feel uncomfortable. .
Fortunately, there were no twists and turns in the refining process. The things that should be unscientific about the world of riding and slashing were still unscientific. Zhang Qi felt relieved.
Then I looked at the forging column again, and there were still those blueprint components.
After confirming that it was possible, Zhang Qi hurried to the market and stopped buying wood until the market price increased. Adding the previous two logs, it was exactly 40 logs, 800 dinars.
After buying the wood, Zhang Qi bought four pieces of iron ore at a price of 60.
The wallet shrank in an instant, and there was not a drop left.
Refining charcoal, refining iron ore, forty pieces of wood are turned into twenty pieces of charcoal, four pieces of iron ore are turned into eight pieces of pig iron and then refined into eight pieces of wrought iron.
Life and death are about to be decided.
Zhang Qi bowed devoutly to the blacksmith shop, then clicked on the forging bar and checked the two-handed sword.
With a few clanging sounds, eight pieces of wrought iron and two pieces of charcoal were turned into two two-handed swords.
On the stove of the blacksmith shop, the blades of two two-handed swords appeared, reflecting the fire in the furnace. Zhang Qi ran forward and picked up the two weapons that decided his fate and began to watch.
The style of the two-handed sword is not bad, and it is not too heavy to buy. It weighs about seven or eight kilograms. Zhang Qi, who has experienced fighting in the arena, naturally understands that the weight of seven or eight kilograms is already a big burden for combat. .
That's not the point. Zhang Qi doesn't know how to fight with a two-handed sword. Although the power of two-handed weapons cannot be underestimated, for a half-hearted person like him, using a two-handed sword will only kill him.
He left the blacksmith shop and arrived at the market. Fortunately, the two were not far apart, otherwise Zhang Qi would have been exhausted.
Open the market page.
Zhang Qi finally couldn't help laughing.
The selling price of a two-handed sword is: 661!
Two handles paid off, almost a small profit of three hundred dinars! This is a reward that requires a complete victory in an arena training competition.
"It's done!"
Zhang Qi grinned at Lao Gao. The time needed to play in the arena is not proportional to the time spent in blacksmithing. Moreover, although he only earned more than 280 dinars, he did not run out of charcoal, so Zhang Qi actually earned get more.
The only pity is that Poros is not a city that mainly produces wood. The price of wood here has begun to increase, and there is not much left.
There was still some iron ore left, so Zhang Qi chose to buy it until the market price rose.
Poros couldn't wait any longer. He couldn't stop his fortune-making career and had to race against time.
"The closest city to Poros should be 'Zeonrica', a city close to the sea. If you walk along the seaside, you should be able to avoid those bandits. After all, there are no pirates here."
Zhang Qi thought.
If he wants to go to Zeonlika, he will die if he only relies on his legs, but if he rides a horse and is fast, he can reach it in about two hours.
But here's the thing.
"I can't ride a horse!"
Zhang Qi let out a cry. Fortunately, people in this world are all emotionless NPCs, otherwise Zhang Qi would have been treated as a fool.
"If you don't know how to do it, you have to know how to make money, how to escape, not knowing how to ride a horse equals slow death, big deal... big deal..."
"I'll just tighten it up."
Zhang Qi muttered softly, he had just earned a small three hundred dollars, and after buying a mount, he still had start-up capital.
Without too much hesitation, Zhang Qi immediately bought the most docile traveling horse and the cheapest worn-out saddle.
I have to say that the prices in Calradia are really outrageous. A traveling horse only costs 179 dinars. You must know that I just bought a 20-pound piece of meat for more than 50. It is better to buy a horse and kill it for meat. , Zhang Qi still didn’t believe it, one horse couldn’t kill 80 kilograms of meat.
But I just thought about it, how could the recycling price in the market be the same as the selling price? Don’t work hard for a long time picking the meat, and you won’t even be able to get your money back.
However, this also gave Zhang Qi some inspiration. He could give it a try if he could find an opportunity. Maybe he could buy things from the market and break them down. It might be more cost-effective than just forging iron by himself.
But for now, we still have to play it safe and don't waste our time. This is related to the lives of five people, including my own.
Climbing onto the saddled traveling horse, Zhang Qi almost lay on the horse's back. Fortunately, the traveling horse is docile, and the products of the riding and slashing world have more or less mechanical and dull characteristics. Zhang Qi can ride on the traveling horse safely.
"drive....?"
Zhang Qi tried to kick the horse's belly, and the traveling horse walked forward mechanically.
The reins in his hands were pulled to the left, and the traveling horse moved to the left obediently.
"!"
Isn't this the loli who has been controlled by her twin tails?
"understood!"
"drive!"
The traveling horse is gone.
Sometimes, a man's ability to teach himself without a teacher is truly amazing.
