Chapter 53: Master Blacksmith! High-grade Forging Materials!

The Hidden Dragon Guild’s might?

Jiang Bai was stunned for a moment.

It seemed that the server-wide announcements would continue.

“Never mind,” Jiang Bai shook his head and couldn’t be bothered.

Then, his gaze landed on Su Muxue.

Because she hadn’t been online for a few hours, so Su Muxue was still at level 13, while he had already risen to level 15.

One had to know that in the world of Sword and Magic, the difference between a single level could already cause quite a gap

Su Muxue should speed up her leveling.

“Great, I finally joined the Hidden Dragon Guild. Quick, look at the light above my head and tell me what it looks like!” Su Muxue was immersed in the joy of joining the guild.

Right now, she had several markings on her body.

[All Attributes Bonus: 5%]

[EXP Bonus: 20%]

All guild members had these bonuses.

However, behind these two bonuses, there were countdowns.

In other words, there were time limits for each bonus.

If it was a normal guild member, the two guild bonuses would only work for 10 minutes a day.

However, they could contribute to the guild to extend the duration of the bonus effects.

Jiang Bai was quite satisfied with this guild rule.

After all, elite members and normal members were different. If they shared the same bonus effects, it would be too unfair.

Currently, the rankings of the members in the guild from top to bottom were: newbies, normal members, elite members, …, vice guild master, and guild master!

Although in the beginning, everyone’s starting point in the world of Sword and Magic was fair and the same, after entering a guild, whoever could get the liking of the guild master would thus get a promotion in position.

It could be said that the guild master controlled all affairs of the guild and had supreme authority.

Although it was unfair, this was the interesting part of Sword and Magic.

Strength was everything.

If one wasn’t satisfied with the guild master’s choice, then one could just create one’s own guild.

For newbies, even if they created their guild based on some strategies in the later stages, there wouldn’t be any additional effects.

If they did that, even if the guild master was in authority, faced with a guild that was like an empty shell, so what if he had authority within the guild?

“I feel that the speed at which I release my occult spells has increased!” Su Muxue’s voice suddenly sounded.

With the help of the attribute bonus, the cooldown time of the occult spells had decreased a little.

Jiang Bai naturally knew this, so he nodded and said, “Looks like the effect of the all-attribute bonus is pretty good. Together with the EXP bonuses, our growth in the future will be much faster than others!”

Hearing this, Su Muxue revealed a worried expression, “But the others are rich! !”

From what she knew, many companies and factions were prepared to use their resources in the world of Sword and Magic.

As long as they had enough money, they could better dig out the hidden clues.

At that time, their early accumulation might not enable them to win against the other parties!

Su Muxue was worried as she looked at Jiang Bai.

“It’s alright!” Jiang Bai shook his head.

He remembered many details from his previous life.

Even if those people had money, they wouldn’t be able to get their way.

After all, the clues of some mythical grade weapons couldn’t be obtained just by relying on a large number of people…

More importantly, in Jiang Bai’s mind were many strategies that the experts in his previous life had discussed and proven to succeed.

It should be known that many experts had discussed and researched the topic of obtaining mythical-grade weapons. It had taken a long time before they finally had some progress.

Now, Jiang Bai only needed to conveniently use it.

“Oh right, the man in Green Forest Town with the gold-rimmed glasses should be a blacksmith…” Jiang Bai’s gaze shifted to the man beside the old man.

The old man had given him a scroll, but the man with the gold-rimmed glasses hadn’t given him anything.

If it was an ordinary player, they might think that this man was just an ordinary NPC that wouldn’t provide anything valuable.

Jiang Bai was different.

“If I remember correctly, as long as I take off his glasses, the hidden quest will be triggered!” Jiang Bai’s gaze steadied as he thought and prepared to act.

At this moment, the old man, who was the village chief of Green Forest Town, stood up with tears of gratitude because he had escaped danger, Respected and great adventurer, I still have to thank you once again. If not for your existence, Green Forest Town would still be threatened by the dark pterosaur!”

Hearing this, Jiang Bai just walked toward the man with the gold-rimmed glasses.

Su Muxue stood at the side and was stunned.

What did he want to do?

At this moment, the man asked in puzzlement, “Adventurer, may I ask what is the matter?”

In the next second, Jiang Bai simply nodded and moved to take off the man’s gold-rimmed glasses.

The man immediately revealed an astonished expression.

When Su Muxue saw this, she was instead dumbfounded, “What is going on? Why is the NPC acting like this?”

[Ding! Congratulations to player Maise the God for triggering the hidden quest, Master Blacksmith!]

[Quest Name: Master Blacksmith! ]

[Difficulty: Black-iron]

[Quest Reward: High-grade forging material]

[Description: Chen Fan from Green Forest Town is a nobody in town. No one knows that he is actually a master blacksmith! However, if one takes off his gold-rimmed glasses, one would realize that this man used to be quite famous in the world of blacksmithing.]

[Additional Information: To the man, if he took off his glasses by himself, it would mean that he had lost the bet to his old friend. Therefore, he could only wait for others to discover his identity and take off his glasses!]

Jiang Bai was stunned.

Then, he revealed a smile.

As expected, it was exactly the same as what he remembered in his previous life.

Back then, someone had unintentionally taken off the man’s gold-rimmed glasses and thus triggered the hidden quest.

Players like this liked to try out all kinds of interactions with the NPCs and would tend to receive many surprises.

For Jiang Bai, he only needed to keep the results of the surprises after the interaction experiments for himself.

As for those useless interactions, there was no need to try at all.

At this moment, Su Muxue’s eyes were wide open, her beautiful eyes fluttering, “This… What’s going on?! How did you do it? How could you trigger a hidden quest just by taking off an NPC’s glasses!”

She had been standing at the side just now and had never thought of taking off the man’s gold-rimmed glasses.

To think Jiang Bai had thought of it.

Even if an expert had come, he might not have thought that this was the key to triggering a hidden quest.

At the same time, she could also feel how detailed the world of Sword and Magic was. Even a pair of gold-rimmed glasses contained a hidden quest “Master Blacksmith”.

Seeing Su Muxue’s confusion, Jiang Bai gave a simple explanation. He said that he was not used to seeing the glasses, so he took them off.

After all, one of the lenses of the gold-rimmed glasses had shattered, making it look very unnatural.

Therefore, this reason was quite valid.

As for the fact that he was someone who had been reborn, this was his greatest secret and reliance. He definitely could not expose it.

Su Muxue could not find anything suspicious about his excuse. She nodded and believed what he had said.

Then, she asked curiously, “The difficulty of this mission is black iron, but the reward is high-grade forging materials? Aren’t we too lucky?”
