Chapter 1022: Chapter 1022: It Was Really Uncool!
Previously at Lightwind Continent, Tang Li Xue only managed to raise her identity badge from a bronze badge to a silver badge.
There was still a golden badge above a silver badge, and finally, this white jade badge should be above the golden badge.
Tang Li Xue did not know if this white jade badge was the highest level one or not, but at least, the holder of the white jade badge should be a respectable figure.
Tang Li Xue had seen that Instructor Mei Lan also held a white jade badge, and she was the daughter of a high official in Lightwind Continent.
With this white jade badge given by the Bookkeeper, Tang Li Xue should not meet with any trouble in this Fox Clan’s City, unless it was herself who was actively looking for trouble.
Tang Li Xue carefully hung the white jade badge on her waist.
She also condensed a fox mask to cover her stunningly beautiful face with [Energy Manipulation] before she led Little Loki, Yaya, Lucia, and Xi’er out of the library.
When strolling in the inner circle area where the upper-class foxes with high authority lived, Tang Li Xue and her team bumped into patrolling fox guards several times.
A fox, a wind elemental fairy, a kitten, a bird, and an undead (Xi’er did not have fox ears and tail after all, so she looked completely like a human)...
Their team was truly so eye-catching that every patrolling fox guard would stare at them suspiciously.
If not for the white jade identity badge hung on Tang Li Xue’s waist, those patrolling fox guards would have already detained Tang Li Xue and her team as soon as those patrolling fox guards saw them.
Moreover, those fox guards that patrol in this elite inner circle area every day had never seen someone like Tang Li Xue until now, so it made sense for them to be suspicious of her.
Tang Li Xue now understood why the Bookkeeper gave this white jade badge to her.
"Miss Bookkeeper is truly awesome..." Tang Li Xue sighed in admiration at the Bookkeeper’s meticulousness.
Little Loki snorted unhappily as it glared menacingly at the patrolling fox guard, who seemed to keep watching their every movement suspiciously, as if it was saying: ’What are you looking at?!’
Yaya shook her tiny fist angrily at them as if she wanted to beat them up.
Lucia also puffed her feathered chest while glaring at them as if she was provoking them to fight her if you dare.
Even the usually calm and cheerful Xi’er looked dissatisfied, so she whispered to Tang Li Xue: "Sister Xue, these people... I mean, these fox guards are so annoying. Should we just..."
Xi’er showed a chopping gesture to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue’s pink lips twitched slightly as she felt that her team looked more and more like a gangster rather than a proper righterous team.
"No! How could we kill those patrolling guards just because they were keeping an eye on us?! What the heck are you thinking?!" Tang Li Xue immediately rebuked Xi’er.
"Err, no, Sister Xue... I mean, should we just teach them a lesson?" Xi’er replied while staring strangely at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue was from the Fox Clan after all, and they still needed to carry out the Bookkeeper’s mission tomorrow, so how could they mindlessly kill the fox guards?!
Xi’er’s strange stare was like saying: ’Are you stupid or what?!’
Tang Li Xue coughed and blushed cutely in embarrassment as she uttered: "Okay, let’s be patient. Just let them do what they want as long as they do not bother us."
Tang Li Xue did not want to be even more suspected by wandering around aimlessly in this elite inner circle area, so she decided to lead her team straight to the middle circle, where the busy district and market area were located.
Different from the solemn atmosphere of the elite inner circle area, it was totally crowded and noisy in the middle circle market area.
"Fresh spirit fruits! Buy more than 10 catties, you will get a 10% discount!"
"Mind Calming Talisman! Cleansing Talisman! Golden Body Talisman! Buy 10, get 1 for free!"
"Sell cheap Treasure Seeking Rat! Only for 50,000 credits!"
"Soft and tender Wind Chasing Pig Meat! 800 credits per catty!"
Tang Li Xue felt a little bit dizzy from so many loud shouts and unpleasant mixed smells.
This market area was so crowded that Tang Li Xue and her team could easily be separated if they were not careful.
Little Loki and Yaya looked unhappy, but they endured it for Tang Li Xue’s sake. It seemed they did not like a crowded place like this market area.
Contrary to them, Lucia and Xi’er looked around with a pair of eyes filled with curiosity and excitement, as if this crowded and noisy atmosphere did not bother them at all.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and reminded Xi’er and Lucia: "Don’t get distracted yet. We have to buy our necessities for the mission first."
Lucia and Xi’er nodded obediently at Tang Li Xue to reassure her.
Tang Li Xue brought her team to the nearest Talisman Material Shop.
She bought more than a hundred blank jade talismans and dozens of bottles containing various kinds of beast blood.
To be honest, they were actually quite pricey.
If Tang Li Xue did not receive plenty of subsidies from the Bookkeeper, she might decide not to buy them.
If the Bookkeeper did not give her any credits, Tang Li Xue had already thought of selling some of the precious resources in [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda].
But those precious resources could also be consumed by Little Loki, Lucia, and Yaya, so they could grow stronger rapidly.
In short, even if Tang Li Xue decided to sell some of the precious resources, she would only sell a little bit of them, which might only be worth a few tens of thousands of credits.
Tang Li Xue pitifully bit her pink lips as she paid over 100,000 credits to the shop manager with an expression full of unwillingness.
’These blank jade talismans are many times more expensive than blank talisman papers!’ Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in frustration.
After going out dejectedly from the Talisman Material Shop, Tang Li Xue looked for the Treasure Refiner Workshop.
There were more than a dozen Treasure Refiner Workshops in the market area.
Tang Li Xue did not want to blindly find any random Treasure Refiner Workshop, since the spirit treasure they made might be defective or of low quality.
So, Tang Li Xue decided to inquire about the best Treasure Refiner Workshop in this market area from an old peddler.
"Old Ye’s Workshop should be the best one in this east market district. It is right next to the auction house, but you have to be prepared. His fee is much more expensive than the others." The old peddler honestly told Tang Li Xue.
"Old Ye’s Workshop... Okay, thank you very much for the information." Tang Li Xue generously transferred 100 credits to the old peddler as payment for the information he provided.
Tang Li Xue took Little Loki, Yaya, and the others to Old Ye’s Workshop, that located right next to the auction house.
As soon as Tang Li Xue pushed open the door of the workshop, she was greeted with the loud sound of metal banging.
CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!
"Uh, hello~!" Tang Li Xue yelled out loud.
There was a two-meter-tall old man who stood right beside the large furnace.
This two-meter-tall old man should be Old Ye, the owner of this workshop.
Old Ye was a muscular old man with a long beard.
Honestly, his macho body and fierce face were not suitable for his fox ears and tail.
Old Ye raised his head and scanned Tang Li Xue, Little Loki, Yaya, Lucia, and Xi’er with his gaze for a while before he straightly asked in a hoarse voice: "What kind of treasure do you want to make?"
Tang Li Xue took out the design of the anti-materiel rifle she made with her perfect copy yesterday from her space pouch and gave it to Old Ye.
Old Ye frowned deeply as soon as he saw the design of the anti-materiel rifle.
"What kind of trash... Cough, I mean, what kind of spirit treasure is this? It is not a defense-type, offensive-type, or support-type." Old Ye blurted out in a confused tone.
Tang Li Xue’s pink lips twitched slightly in displeasure.
’"Err, you just say trash, right?" Tang Li Xue asked in an unhappy tone.
"No, that was just your imagination." Who knew that Old Ye was actually shamelessly denying it?!
Tang Li Xue: "....."
Old Ye: "....."
After a few moments of awkward silence, Tang Li Xue finally opened her mouth first and explained it to Old Ye: "That is a special kind of spirit treasure. I want to use it as a vessel to contain my powers, then shoot them at my enemy."
Old Ye raised his eyebrow and asked again: "Oh, I get it.. Then why don’t you just make it in the form of a gourd? I think it makes much more sense than this... weird-shaped treasure."
Tang Li Xue sneered mockingly as soon as she heard Old Ye’s suggestion.
There were many reasons why Tang Li Xue did not want to make it in the form of a gourd.
First, it was clearly uncool to hold a gourd and aim at her enemy as if she were holding a gun or a rifle.
Second, the accuracy of her shot would fall if it were in the form of a gourd, since she could not aim properly with it.
Third... Well... Anyway, it was totally uncool!
