Samsara Online
62 Mount Shop
Eminentis City is located on the north side of the Adastreia Continent. This place is the most peaceful place in the entire Adastreia Continent, which is the reason why players start their trip at this point.
In Eminentis City there is no lack of food and resources. That is why there are no battles and the beasts from outside will not leave their territories to enter the city. Although the Goddess of Creation has disappeared and the demonic qi apparently liberated by the Moon Devil Clan is affecting the Adastreia Continent, Eminentis City is still a peaceful area.
Therefore, when the unknown monster assaulted Eminentis City, all the citizens were extremely frightened and confused, since it was something that by nature should not have happened.
According to the map that the King Hu Yi had previously given him, if he walked to where the Dark Forest was located, it would take him about three or four days. The Adastreia Continent was simply very large, so the distance traveled in these three or four days could still be considered a short distance.
Before the foreign exchange was opened, there was still a shortage of gold coins. Low level players could not spend money buying a mount for activities in the city casually. But for long trips, it was necessary to buy a mount.
After walking for a few minutes, Xie Feng arrived at the Mount Shop. The Mount Shop looked extremely normal and if it wasn't for the big sign outside, he would have thought he was in the wrong place.
The owner of the mount shop was an old man who appeared to be in his sixties and seventies. He had his eyes closed and was leaning against the store counter. Xie Feng could even see a large pool of saliva slowly forming. Clearly the old man had fallen asleep.
However, this is also normal since all the nearby stores were full of players except this one. The mount shop was completely empty, like a desert that no one would want to visit on a summer day.
*Cough*
Xie Feng coughed slightly with the intention of waking up the old man... but all he got in return was a snore.
Xie Feng tried to wake the old man several more times, but without making too much noise to avoid surprising the poor old man. However, after almost 5 minutes without results, he finally lost his patience.
"Senior! Someone is trying to steal your horses!". Xie Feng shouted as he put both hands in front of his mouth and used them to concentrate the sound in the direction of the old man's ear.
"Who dares to steal laozi's horses?!". The old man who looked like he would continue to sleep even if the world ended, jumped out of his chair as if he were a sportsman instead of a wrinkled old man.
Xie Feng was surprised by the sudden burst of energy from the old man so he quickly took several steps back, barely avoiding the saliva that flew out of the mount store owner's mouth.
"Sorry to interrupt your rest, but I received an important mission from the King of the North and my time is limited. Could you please show me the available mounts?". Xie Feng said in the most polite way possible without waiting for the old man in front of him to say more words, for fear that more saliva would fly out of his mouth.
Seeing that he was actually a client, the old man did not get angry about being woken up like that in the first place because he should not be sleeping. However, the old man also did not seem to have the desire to talk as he simply waved his hand.
A panel appeared in front of Xie Feng's eyes, showing the available mounts.
[Normal Horse: A very common white horse. Movement speed + 30. Costs 70 gold coins.]
[Armed Horse: A type of horse that is stronger than ordinary horses, its ability to run is much stronger and its defense is higher. Movement speed + 40. Costs 300 gold coins.]
[War Horse: A horse used by soldiers of the Imperial Army. It is said that a soldier rode from one end of the Adastreia Continent to the other on one of these. But since the phrase "everything is fake" was released, the price of the War Horse has plummeted. Movement speed + 50. It costs 2000 gold coins.]
[Ferghana's Horse: One of the oldest species of horses in the Adastreia Continent. With a wide body and a long neck, it has a nice toned body. It has great strength, resistance and speed. One of the kings of the mountains since ancient times. Currently there are only a few Ferghana horses, so their price in gold does not emphasize their true value. Speed of movement + 60. It costs 30,000 gold coins.]
"Boss, give me a horse. The fastest one you have". Xie Feng said casually.
Since the old man in front of him was not very eager to talk and did not seem to be too polite, Xie Feng changed the way he talked to him to a less formal one.
Upon hearing that someone actually wanted to buy a horse, and the most expensive one, the owner of the mount shop quickly opened his eyes and smiled: "Hahaha! Very good, you have good eyes, young hero. My fastest horse is a Ferghana horse, I only have three of these left so they will soon be gone. Believe me, you will not regret this purchase".
Seeing the enthusiasm on the part of the mount store owner, Xie Feng had to restrain the urge to laugh.
How could he afford to buy a Ferghana Horse worth 30,000 gold coins? He only has a little over 100 gold coins and except for those big guilds that collect gold from all their members, Xie Feng is confident that he is the player with the most gold coins not only on the Chinese server, but in the whole world!
At least until the currency exchange officially opens, the gold coins in players' possession will be very limited.
To prevent the old man from getting too excited about anything, Xie Feng took the letter from his inventory that King Hu Yi had previously given him and handed it to the poor man: "Boss, this letter is from the King of Eminentis City. Actually, the mission I am currently carrying out is a mission specially granted by the king....",
Still excited, the owner of the mount shop took the letter. After he opened it and started reading, the big smile on his face started to melt quickly like an ice cube in the desert sand.
When the old man finished reading the letter he confirmed the stamp several times, to make sure the letter was real and not a fault, before sighing excessively.
The old man dropped his butt back on the chair and waved his hand without saying a word.
[Ding! ... You have obtained the 'Ferghana Horse' from the owner of the mount shop in Eminentis City. It now exists in your mounts space and you can summon it to ride anyway.]
[Ding! ... 'Ferghana Horse' is a temporary loan while the mission is being carried out, if it dies in battle you will have to pay half of its price, depending on the grade at which the mission is completed, the mount will be permanent.]
The first announcement of the system made Xie Feng extremely happy. Not because of the value of the mount, but because at this stage of the game a Ferghana Horse is invaluable as 60 points of extra movement speed for long distance travel is an amazing help.
Xie Feng calculated that it would take him three or four days to reach the Dark Forest. But that time was after he added the approximate speed of the mount, otherwise it would take him twice as long to reach his destination.
However, the second announcement woke him up slightly, making his excited expression return to normal as quickly as the old man's smile retreated a few seconds ago.
'Well... there's no way things are that simple'. He thought to himself.
Still, depending on the grade of accomplishment of the mission, the mount could still belong to him. He just doesn't know the grade.
Still, Xie Feng thanked the NPC with a smile: "Thank you very much, your gift will be of great help to me".
Apparently feeling better with his words, the old man at the mount shop smiled for the first time and nodded: "He, he, he... I'm glad to be of help, I'm glad to be of help".
After to read the letter, although a little disappointed to have to give away one of his fastest mounts for free, the old man also knew that this mission is about the security of Eminentis City, so his mood was very high.
Each player had their own mount space which could hold up to five mounts, but each time, they could only summon one out to ride. Riding a mount was a means of transportation for players and players could not be hurt while they were mounted. At the same time, in the early period of the game, the only professions that could fight on mounts were Warriors and Knights. Archers, Assassins, Magicians, Priests, and Summoners could not fight while mounted. Only after the reach level thirty could they learn the required skill to fight on mounts, like the "horseback archery" skill for Archers.
However, to be able to attack on the mount, the player needs at least one Armed Horse since Normal Horses do not allow to attack while a player is riding.
