Natural Disaster

Chapter 5 The Mysterious Merchant

Mysterious merchant, level? Attributes? Skill? Introduction: Merchants who randomly appear in the wild or in towns, the most mysterious smugglers on the mainland, sell items that are not available in ordinary stores at low prices, and there is a certain chance that rare items, skill books, and skill scroll items will appear.

From the A-level skills on the Jiangcheng Bridge to the mysterious businessman at the bus station, it is all within Zhang Mu’s plan. The preparation of the mysterious businessman to create a greater advantage in the early stage is a very important link. His whereabouts will appear in any way. Locally, each stay does not exceed six hours, the probability of encountering is lower than that of buying lottery tickets. But the place where it first appeared was the bus station.

Zhang Mu grabbed the fat man with weak legs and walked to the mysterious businessman. He was sitting on a black truck. The car was four meters high and made of metal. It was dark all over and worn out.

"Warriors from other worlds, your luck is good. You actually met me in this place!" The mysterious businessman's voice was hoarse and thick. He jumped out of the car and continued: "Welcome to the mysterious store, our merchandise Good quality and low price, you are guaranteed to be satisfied."

Zhang Mu nodded: "Let me see first, what products are there."

The mysterious businessman turned around and kicked the truck and shouted: "Hey, the guy inside, there is a business coming!" The truck was opened, and a long shelf was pushed out. There were more than 20 different items hanging on it. Different commodities.

F-level Monster Manual (Dawn Camp), which records the information and data of level 1-10 ordinary and elite monsters in Dawn Camp. This map sells for 10 gold coins. The remaining quantity is 1.

The area map records the terrain of the area map, the distribution of monsters of each level, and the location of the wild copy. The price of this map: 100 gold coins. The remaining quantity is 1.

There are more than 20 items of goods with intelligence, equipment, enhanced scrolls, and skill books, but the prices are mostly over a few hundred gold coins, and players absolutely can't afford it at this stage.

After reading it, Zhang Mu said, "I want to make a deal with you."

The mysterious businessman said: "Is there something you like?"

Zhang Mu shook his head and said, "You should understand that we can't afford anything at this stage."

The mysterious businessman smiled: "Oh, what business do you want to do?"

Zhang Mu said: "Lend me 50 gold coins for up to two hours, double return."

"This is the first time someone has borrowed gold coins from me when I have traveled in the mainland for many years."

Zhang Mu said: "You are a businessman and put your interests first. This deal is very cost-effective."

"Interesting person." The mysterious businessman looked up and down Zhang Mu. "Although in principle it is not allowed, you look different, I can make an exception. But the conditions need to be changed. I will lend you 50 gold coins. Two hours later, 200 gold coins back."

Prompt: Trigger the task to repay the debt, the task difficulty level is F, do you accept it?

Zhang Mu got 50 gold coins, the canine-man machete was sold, and he got another 15 gold coins. Now there are 69 gold coins in total.

Spend 10 gold coins to buy an F-level monster manual.

Spend 50 gold coins to buy a post.

Zhang Mu concentrated all his energy and saw a reduced version of Zhang Mu appeared in his consciousness. Various attributes and statuses were displayed beside him. There are multiple options around the character information, namely backpack, mission, guild, team, forum, and enter the forum. In the middle, there is a blank space, nothing.

The posts bought from the mystery store are used to create posts in the forum.

Zhang Mu brewed for a while and immediately wrote in the post:

"Regardless of whether the country is rich or powerful, the high-ranking officials of the powerful party, or the brilliant and highly anticipated celebrities, from the moment the game opens, all of this has vanished! So, abandon the past glory or dirt, and let go of the past pride or Inferiority! At this moment, all beings are standing on the same starting line. Only the truly strong can obtain the right to survive, and the weak can only be eliminated and enslaved. Life and death, strong and weak, choose for themselves... Please firmly believe that this is The true end of the world is not the end of mankind."

"In addition, I want to tell you an unfortunate thing. We are no longer on the familiar earth. It may be ridiculous, but the fact is that Jiangcheng has become a forest. Yes, we have come to another world. We are isolated, there will be no rescue, no army, no government... Jiangcheng is the lowest area in the local map, the monster level is within 1-3, in fact, as long as Overcome fear and use wisdom well, low-level monsters are not invincible!"

"Of course, you might choose to hide in a place with plenty of food? This is impossible. The system will release the task in the near future. It is mandatory. The failure of the task will be obliterated by the system..."

"This is the monster data below level 10. It includes the monster's habit and weakness, attribute information, skill information, etc. It is important survival information, please pay attention to it!"

"Reading will charge 1 gold coin as a fee."

Zhang Mu copied the information in the monster manual. This part of the charge is set at 1 gold coin per person. The monster manual contains detailed information on all monsters below level 10, with a total of over a thousand species.

Jiangcheng has a population of nearly 4 million, and most of them will die within 24 hours before the disaster. About one in ten will survive. One in five of the survivors will be qualified as players within the first 12 hours. . In other words, nearly 80,000 people were qualified as players within 12 hours.

This piece of information is very important and definitely has the ability to rewrite history.

Summarizing the lessons of failure in memory, the biggest reason why mankind will fail in the end is that too many people died in the early stage. Secondly, in the mid-term, there were a large number of civil strife and turmoil between the human races, and the various forces were independent, so that the few survivors could kill each other. Concentration of strength, this led to the result of the destruction of the whole.

Now that you have come again, you can't repeat the same mistakes and use the known information to seek the greatest benefit, but this is not a game for one person, and Zhang Mu needs to let more people survive and increase the overall strength of the human camp!

An important information covering all monsters at this stage is announced, which is vital to people's early survival. At the same time, it will establish a solid prestige for Zhang Mu and make him a celebrity on the map of the entire region!

Zhang Mu uses Mu Ren as the forum ID and posts.

"Prompt: The post is successfully created and will be automatically cleared in six hours!"

"Reminder: The first poster on this map will get 300 prestige rewards!"

"Reminder: The first post is successfully created, the whole picture is announced!"

When the fat man heard the system announcement, he was surprised: "There is a forum function. You are the boss of this post, right?"

Zhang Mu sat down and waited. The monster was still roaring outside the iron gate. However, within 100 meters of the mysterious merchant, any monster could not get close. Before the mysterious merchant left, the two were absolutely safe. Regarding the system announcements, the players learned about the posts at the first time, and the number of page views instantly reached more than one thousand. The total number of players in the city was not much higher than that by visual observation.

In about 2 minutes, the first payer appeared and received the first gold coin.

Five minutes later, there was a burst of payment, reaching 160 in an instant.

After 10 minutes, the number of payments gradually stabilized, reaching 180.

After 30 minutes, it broke through 200 people.

Zhang Mu clenched his fist. It was very good. The income was much faster than expected. He gave 200 gold coins to the mysterious merchant.

"mission completed!"

"Mystery businessman's favorability degree is +20, and favorability rises to 20. Relationship change: Neutral→Normal."

From now on, the income of each gold coin is all Zhang Mu's personal wealth.

The amount of payment continues to grow. As players continue to increase, more players get gold coins from monsters, and the growth rate is steadily increasing.

One hour, 150 gold coins.

2 hours, 400 gold coins.

3 hours, 590 gold coins.

In 4 hours, 950 gold coins passed 5 hours, and 1200 gold coins entered the backpack.

Even after a month or two, 1,200 is an extremely expensive fortune, plus the previous 200 paid and recorded a large number of monster information posts, 1,400 people paid to read it. People usually don't act alone. It is enough for one person in a group to pay. The number of people who get information is at least four or five times the number of people paid!

The mysterious merchant will leave in about twenty minutes.

Area map manual, 100 gold coins!

F+ level skill book: assassination, 300 gold coins!

F level skill book: speed skating, 200 gold coins!

First buy the most important skill book and map, a total of 500 gold coins.

LV1 skill upgrade scroll, 400 gold coins!

Skill scrolls can upgrade skills. This is an extremely important thing. It costs 900 gold coins in total.

There are many good things in the mystery store, but time is too limited to collect more gold coins, so we can only choose the most useful things to sell. After buying the skill book, skill scroll, and map, Zhang Mu bought another post left in the store. Use the same technique when you have no money, and you can quickly make a fortune.

The last 203 gold coins were used by Zhang Mu for equipment.

Fine iron dagger, attack +8, sharpness +1, durability 2020. The price is 80 gold coins!

Fine iron two-handed axe, attack +14, attack speed -10%, durability 2020. The price is 110 gold coins!

Although they are both black iron grade equipment, ordinary black iron equipment is much better than inferior black iron equipment. Zhang Mu equipped the short sword, and gave the two-handed axe to the fat man.
