Blue Sword

At this point in time, the bodies of the neighbor's family of three should have been sent to the nearby cemetery and prepared for burial at dusk.

According to the original plot of the game, Peggy crawled out late at night, so Asker was not in a hurry. Since the soul had passed through the body of this stupid NPC (which just happened to interrupt the vampire's mental hypnosis of the original owner), of course he had to hypnotize the original owner first. All his original social relationships were cut off before the vampires found out something was wrong and came to find him.

The technology tree of this world is quite confusing and unbalanced. Big cities already have satellites, mobile phones, cars and subways, but in remote villages you still have to draw water from wells. Developed areas already have electronic money and securities trading markets, while backward areas still use gold, silver, copper coins and barter.

Cold weapons and hot weapons coexist, technology and extraordinary compete with each other. This is such a strange and antagonistic world.

Constantinople, where Asker is located, is one of the most developed cities in the world, so all aspects of public facilities are complete.

He took the subway to the high school in the neighborhood and walked slowly into the classroom where it was his turn to teach today.

The tuition of this high school is not cheap, and most of the students are middle-class citizens, so the classroom order is quite good. As soon as the teacher came in, everyone fell silent in unison.

Asike walked onto the podium, and everyone opened their textbooks and prepared to take notes.

"Everyone close the textbooks. There is no need to take notes today." Asker said, "Today's assignment is to write a paper on a topic of your own choice based on all the content you have learned this semester."

He glanced at the whole class and said loudly:

"After choosing the topic, go to the library to collect materials, write a history paper, and hand it in as this week's homework. In the next few days, everyone will study by themselves."

The students immediately cheered. Although they don’t know how to write a paper, self-study is fun! So amid the farewells of his classmates, Asike Shiran walked out of the classroom and walked towards the principal's office.

The door of the office was open, and the principal could be seen inside, sitting in an armchair reading a newspaper. Asker pushed the door open and said bluntly: "Principal, I want to resign."

The principal raised his head and saw clearly that the teacher who offered to resign was the young master of the Achilles family. Everyone usually knows that this history teacher is actually an aristocrat and his family is very rich. He has no desire to earn the salary of a teacher. Therefore, the principal just nodded and did not make any more attempts to retain him. He just said:

"Okay, but please, Mr. Asker, please stay here for another week and wait until the school hires a new history teacher before leaving, okay?"

"No need," Aske said, "I have given the students homework for the week. The history class for the next week will be changed to self-study, and they will go to the library to prepare papers."

The principal smiled bitterly: "It seems that you are determined to leave. Well, are you planning to go back to run the family business?"

Ask shook his head and smiled and said: "No. I plan to sell the shop I have and then form an expedition team to explore."

"Sell it?" The principal was shocked.

He knew that the Achilles family had two shops in Constantinople, which alone were worth hundreds of pounds.

The pound here refers to the Solomon pound, which was originally a unit of weight and later evolved into the largest monetary unit of the Eastern Solomon Empire. One pound of banknotes is equivalent to an ancient Suledes gold coin. According to the purchase exchange rate in the previous game, one gold coin The price is about RMB 10,000.

According to this calculation, Asker is now a full-fledged millionaire, and he still has no loans or liabilities.

Sell ​​all your assets to form an expedition? This is just like selling your house in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou and then working as a mercenary abroad. It is simply crazy.

However, it is a big taboo to make shallow acquaintances, so the principal did not say much and just asked with a smile: "If you want to sell your shop, I know a few well-off buyers who may be interested. .Are you going to entrust it to an agency or an auction house?"

"I plan to sell it to the church." Asker said directly.

The Orthodox Church in Constantinople has always been wealthy and does not lower the price or counter-offer. In addition, it is selling land in the imperial capital, which is very valuable. There are basically no other buyers who can compete with it. So the principal calmed down as soon as he heard this. He could only sigh quietly and complete the resignation procedures for Aske.

After resigning, the next step is to buy all the equipment and arm yourself.

As an e-sports player and former professional player, Asker is naturally familiar with strategies for quickly climbing the levels in the early stages of various games.

What weapon to use, what armor to wear, what mission to take on, what book to take, all have clear and thorough career plans, there will definitely be no problems in this regard.

He walked out of the school and went to a nearby weapons shop and said:

"I want to buy a sword."

"Master Achilles, want to buy a sword?" The shop owner recognized this young master from the Achilles family and knew that he was very rich, so he wanted to sell the gorgeous ceremonial sword inlaid with diamonds and hollows specially designed for nobles. He went out and said with a smile:

"You are really discerning. We have all types of swords in our store. We have recently received a batch of high-quality goods. They are said to be precious relics of the ancient High Elf Empire. Maybe you will be interested..."

"What material is it made of?" Ask asked calmly, "If it's made of meteorite iron, magic copper, mithril, fine gold, colored glaze, polar ice, blood-patterned steel, chaos rock, or dragon bone, I'll buy them all."

The shop owner almost knelt down when he heard the names of these materials. He smiled apologetically and said, "Master Achilles, how can my small shop have those high-end materials you mentioned... If it's meteorite iron and magic copper, I might be able to get it from a little effort. I got it on the black market. Mythril and fine gold are controlled by the imperial military, and colored glaze and polar ice are priceless throughout the continent. It’s impossible for my little shop to have them!"

"As for blood-patterned steel, chaos rock, and dragon bones, aren't these the materials of artifacts in legendary stories? I'm afraid they don't exist at all in reality."

"You don't have any of these materials, how dare you boast that you have everything?" Asker waved his hand wordlessly, "Forget it, let's take out the best materials in your store and have a look. Don't fool me with those hollow patterns. "

"Okay." The shop owner smiled bitterly inwardly, "We currently have two kinds of long swords, iron and forged steel. The highest grade is Damascus moiré steel, which uses the Holy See's most advanced chrome plating technology and Austenitic quenching. The quality is absolutely excellent. …”

"What types of swords are there?" Ask interrupted the shop owner's boast.

"We have military-style Spasian cavalry long swords, as well as Eastern-style Paramaine single-edged curved swords." The shop owner introduced enthusiastically, "Of course, if the young master thinks these are not lethal enough, we also have Western-style swords." The imported hybrid sword has a very thick spine and a weighted ball at the end. It can easily cut off a person's neck bone with one strike..."

"Just a single-edged curved sword, give me one." Ask said, "And a dagger, the Iliban dagger of ancient Solomon. The edge of the sword must be sharpened. Don't give it to me." Used antiques."

"I also need a piece of ring mail, with at least three layers of thick linen lining, and a thick silk cotton armor on the outside. It doesn't need to be a fancy color, any common dyeing will do."

"Okay." The shopkeeper quickly asked the employee to go inside to pick up the goods, and said with a smile, "Master Achilles, are you being appreciated by the palace, are you going to become a royal guard? Yesterday, a young guard came to the shop. He placed the order, which is similar to the equipment you bought today. However, he bought an extra hammer, which is used to break the armor of heavily armored enemies. You see..."

"No need." Asik said, "For breaking armor, firearms are more suitable."

"That's right, that's right." The shopkeeper hurriedly agreed, thinking how expensive guns are. A pistol costs at least two or three pounds, and it also requires bullets. How can a hammer smash into the head so conveniently and cheaply?

Soon the hired workers fetched the corresponding goods. The shopkeeper helped Asker put on his mail armor and put on his cotton armor, making him look more heroic.

He hung the dagger on the buckle of the belt on his left waist. He held the single-edged curved sword made of stainless steel in his right hand and swung it casually a few times. The blade made a low whistle in the air.

"Not bad." Asik was quite satisfied with this sword.

The shopkeeper swallowed, suddenly feeling timid for no reason. The movement of the guy swinging his sword in front of him reminded him of the veterans he had received last year, all of whom were murderous. Just standing there made him shudder and make him want to turn around and run away immediately.

"Here, the chain mail armor costs 5 pounds, the thick silk cotton armor counts as 1 pound, and the two swords cost about 0.3 pounds. I will erase it for you as a fraction." The shopkeeper said carefully.

"Okay." Asik took out his wallet and took out a few bills and gave them to him.

He turned around and left the shop. The shopkeeper looked at his back, feeling inexplicably grateful that he had survived the disaster.

Question: Traveling into the game world, I have an urgent question: Should I fight monsters to level up first, or do tasks to make money first? Answer: You should buy equipment first... You can't fight monsters with bare hands, right? In this hard-core combat world, holding a weapon is completely different from using bare hands.
