Chapter 55: Platinum Grade Agile Boots! A Request from the Master Blacksmith!

Su Muxue met the man who had been wearing gold-rimmed glasses just now. Now, he was wearing blacksmith attire and wasn’t wearing glasses.

Obviously, this was the true attire of the master blacksmith.

At this moment, the master blacksmith continued, “Respected adventurer, if it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have won the bet with my old friend. So, no matter what you need, feel free to tell me. I have a platinum-grade material here that can satisfy any of your forging needs!”

Hearing this, Su Muxue immediately pointed at the boots that Jiang Bai was wearing, “Why don’t you let him forge a pair of platinum-grade Agile Boots for you? That way, your speed will be even faster.”

Hearing this, Jiang Bai asked back, “Why do I need to be so fast?”

Su Muxue said excitedly, “There must be a lot of benefits to being fast, such as…”

Halfway through her sentence, Su Muxue’s face suddenly turned red.

She realized that sometimes it wasn’t good to be too fast.

For example, when having sex.

“Damn it… You don’t have to be too fast!” Su Muxue said with a flushed face.

Jiang Bai laughed.

He found that this girl’s reaction was quite fast.

Then, he turned to say to the master blacksmith, “Please help me forge the platinum-grade Universal Key!”

Hearing this, the master blacksmith nodded and said, “No problem. It only takes one night to forge the platinum-grade Universal Key. Adventurers, please sit by the side and wait for a moment!”

Su Muxue couldn’t help but come forward and pull Jiang Bai, asking in puzzlement, “Why do you want to forge a platinum-grade Universal Key? Can’t we ask for weapons or defensive equipment?”

Jiang Bai shook his head.

He remembered that the master blacksmith before him only had a few platinum-grade materials.

The reason why the other party said he could satisfy any demand was just to brag.

If he were to ask the master blacksmith to forge a platinum-grade staff, he would probably make an incomplete version.

It was because of this that Jiang Bai asked him to forge a platinum-grade Universal Key. This way, the other party’s platinum-grade materials would be just enough.

Jiang Bai walked out of the forging house and took a breath of fresh air. Then he took out the mysterious treasure chest in his backpack.

“What is this? It can’t be that it has to be opened with the platinum-grade Universal Key, right?” Su Muxue asked curiously.

“Just so,” Jiang Bai nodded.

The reason why he had asked for a platinum-grade Universal Key was naturally to open the treasure chest that he had previously obtained.

One had to know that this treasure chest was of great help to the subsequent dungeons.

“If I remember correctly, the dungeon area over at the dragon’s lair will be formed very soon. It’s less than 24 hours before the first dungeon opens!” Jiang Bai looked at the treasure chest while looking at the lair not far away, looking forward to the moment when the dungeon opened.

…

Just as Jiang Bai was waiting for the platinum-grade Universal Key, the regional channel was still crazily discussing the Hidden Dragon Guild.

Even those in the world channel were also talking about the Hidden Dragon Guild and its founder, Maise the God.

In the past two hours, there were almost no server-wide announcements.

Therefore, the Maise the God had left a deep impression on them.

“I didn’t expect that after Maise the God, no one has received an exclusive reward in the past two hours!”

“It seems that the Hidden Dragon Guild will become the biggest existence in the world of Sword and Magic!”

“You Idiots, how could the Hidden Dragon Guild let you join? You might as well join the Grand Sea Guild!”

“I’ve talked to the leader of the Grand Sea Guild. He said that there’s no entry requirement. As long as you reach level 10, you can apply to join!”

“Replying to the comment above, I’ve already applied, but why haven’t I received confirmation yet?!”

“Everyone who has applied, rest assured. In five minutes, the guild master of Grand Sea Guild will filter and select the members that he will allow to join. After all, the number of members in a guild is limited. We have to select the best!”

“F*ck you. Just now, you said there’s no entry requirement, and now you want to choose? F*ck…”

“Brothers, it’s better to join the Xilong Guild. This guild is ranked third and is also a good choice!”

“F*ck, I’m having a hard time choosing!”

“…”

Everyone talked about Maise the God, then talked about the various large guilds.

Although it was still the first day of the server opening, five guilds had already emerged.

Other than the Hidden Dragon Guild which only had two members, the other guilds had no entry requirements. As long as they reached level 10, they could join. In a short while, the number of members were full.

With this, the people in the world channel were depressed.

“Why isn’t anyone creating more guilds?”

“How can these few guilds be enough?”

“Replying to the comment above, you don’t know this, but the method to create a guild is only in the hands of a few. As far as I know, those are all big companies or prestigious families in the real world!”

“Damn it, I was kicked out by Grand Sea Guild. They said that my leveling speed is too slow and doesn’t meet the requirements!”

“Hehe, just now, Grand Sea Guild invited me to meet them in the real world. They said that they would provide me with a handsome salary. Tell me, is it because I play the game well?”

“Damn it! Grand Sea Guild must be set up by a big company in the real world. They only have one goal, which is to find players who can level up fast!”

“…”

Many had just joined the guilds but were soon kicked out.

Soon, people realized that the three guilds, Grand Sea Guild, Xilong Guild, and East Crane Guild didn’t accept weaklings who couldn’t play the game well.

They kept recruiting members, then selecting amongst them and kicking the weak ones out.

It could be said that the members of the guild were constantly changing.

However, some received invitations from these guilds, asking them to meet in the real world and promising them a large sum of money.

At this moment, the players finally came to their senses.

“Capitalism has entered the game!!”

“On the first day of the server opening, the real storm has finally arrived!”

…

Among the many players, many were noobs. In the world of Sword and Magic, they were like babies learning to walk, still constantly trying to figure out the various ways to level up and gain EXP from killing monsters.

However, some were bound to be elites.

They had already figured out some tricks early on, and their leveling speed was much faster than others.

Take this man, Hex, for example.

In reality, he was a mercenary who lived near Mount Everest.

His class in the game wasn’t that popular either. He was a gun swordsman!

In his hands was a laser gun that was flashing with blue light and a silver-white longsword that could be injected with light energy to attack.

For a class like the gun swordsman, it was very popular in the early stages because they would have laser guns.

However, in the later stages, they would be many times weaker than the mages.

Even compared to a close-combat warrior, they would still be fragile.

This was because the strength of close-combat warriors in the later stages would have improved. In addition, warriors could learn moves like Light Slash which would allow them to split the laser attacks.

However, for Hex, it was already a huge stroke of luck to be able to get a gun swordsman class transition scroll in the early stages.

As for the later stages, he refused to think about it for the time being.

At this moment, Hex was practicing the silver-white longsword in his right hand.

This was a piece of gold-grade equipment that was much better than silver-grade equipment.

With a slash, he instantly split the half-meter-thick boulder under his feet.

Boom!

The boulder was split in half.

At the same time, he received a message, “Hex, our mercenary companion, Chen Feng, has been killed and has returned to the resurrection point. Should we do something?”
