Chapter 321 Wild Monster

As a weapon repairer, Guan Tangbao was very active in collecting materials and was a famous "garbage picker". Although most of them were not used at her level, it was one thing to use them or not, but it was a matter of principle to have them or not. Therefore, she even bought a house in Chang'an City to store her various materials.

In addition to the various spiritual materials such as minerals and wood commonly used by weapon cultivators, there are also many medicinal materials such as spiritual herbs and plants, because she is used to using these to exchange for pills made by alchemists. Although their effects are not as good as those sold by sect merchants, they are cheaper.

Therefore, when other players searched their backpacks and finally found some miscellaneous pills and medicinal herbs, Guan Tangbao took out several boxes.

"This is the Soul-Restoring Pill and Blood-Coagulating Powder. I don't think you guys will need them, but is this Calming Pill useful?"

Ren Xinhuadao asked curiously, "Soul-calming pills? What are they for?"

Guan Tang Bao thought about it carefully before saying, "It is said that it can nourish the soul. I think it should be useful?"

Chakota nodded and said, "That's right. Not only that, it can also help with practicing martial arts and breathing spiritual energy after taking it."

Xin Renhua looked at the small porcelain bottle in the box in confusion, his tone full of disbelief: "Hiss... why would you hoard this stuff?"

Guan Tang Bao explained, "I didn't buy this. An NPC wanted some spiritual herbs from me before, so he gave them to me on credit. He didn't have the money to buy them, so he said I could pay him back with the pills he made. I didn't want this originally, but all his Soul Restoring Pills and Blood Coagulation Powder combined weren't enough to pay for it, so I bought a box of this. I heard that this thing is quite expensive!"

"The price of Fu Lu Shou's flying boat is about five or six spirit stones per pill. The price of different qualities fluctuates by no more than 30%. This bottle..." Cha Keta said, picking up a small porcelain bottle, pouring all the pills into the palm of his hand, counting them, and then continued: "Two, four, six, eight... A bottle has a total of twenty pills. I wonder what price you are willing to pay?"

The soup dumpling was very generous. He waved his hand and said, "I don't have any idea about this. Just give me whatever you think is appropriate!"

Chakota thought for a moment and asked sincerely, "We really need the Calming Pills. They look pretty good. How about charging one bottle for 120 Spiritual Stones?"

"It's up to you! There are a total of twenty bottles here, which means... two thousand four hundred spirit stones! Hiss... wait a minute, let me look through it again!"

As Guan Tang Bao said this, he took out all the Qiankun bags in the game backpack and began to check them one by one.

"Hey! Here are six bottles of Bone-Breaking and Muscle-Growing Powder!"

Guan Tang Bao excitedly took out a few small porcelain bottles and asked, "Is this valuable?"

"Hmm..." Chakota said hesitantly, "Not bad. A bottle this big... can be sold for about thirty spirit stones."

"Alas!" Guan Tang Bao sighed in disappointment: "This is not worth much, it's only one hundred and eighty yuan in total!"

Nietzsche suggested: "Why don't you let Huadao run again? He has equipment that can restore mana, and it should be almost full now, right? If it doesn't work, take some more medicine and ask him to take you back to get it!"

When Renxin Huadao thought about having to wear the peony flower, his face suddenly turned green: "This, this, this, we don't need it anymore, right!?"

The others also thought of this and put on malicious smiles. King Bamboo Grass patted Renxin Huadao's shoulder with a gloating look and deliberately said earnestly: "This is the mission assigned to you by the organization!"

Wu Ke also made a request without hesitation: "By the way, please help me take the black box that I have stored in the Sheyi warehouse. My name is written on it. It's in the warehouse!"

Nietzsche waved his hand and made a decision: "Well, the rest of you stay here, Baozi, Huadao and I will go back to get the things. If you want to buy anything, you can put it in the public account first and use the public resources in the Sheyi warehouse to buy it. We will calculate it in detail in the group later!"

Chakota was a little confused: "You...you can go directly to Middle-earth?"

Nietzsche said, "We have a teleportation array that can send us there. Do you want to come with us?"

"I……"

Before Chakota could say anything, the Jade Emperor suddenly stood up and asked excitedly, "Chakota! Are the monsters here only able to affect people's souls? They don't have much killing power and can be easily eliminated?"

Although Chakota was a little confused, he still answered seriously: "Yes, that's right, but this kind of influence is almost impossible to isolate. The more you are in contact with it, the more you will turn into a monster..."

The Jade Emperor became more and more excited, even clapping his hands vigorously, and emphasized: "Sisters! Affecting the soul! A wild monster with little combat power! It only affects the soul!"

“Fuck!”

Others also reacted and uttered curses in shock.

Renxin Huadao even shook his head and sighed: "That's not a wild monster! That's experience! It's contribution! It's prestige!"

“That’s right!”

The Jade Emperor turned to Chakota and said, "Chakota, I think you can hire us. No, no, no, you don't even need to hire us. We can help you clean up these things for free! We don't have souls! We are not afraid of them!"

“No… no soul!?”

Chakota was so frightened that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

"It's like this..."

The Jade Emperor tried hard to explain some concepts about players and practicing with puppets. It took a long time for Chakota to understand that the disciples of Taiyin Sect were all puppets controlled by the so-called "divine consciousness" and had no souls.

Chakota frowned and asked uncertainly, "But the divine consciousness can also be polluted, right?"

"We won't be contaminated. To be honest, the reason why we came here to find the Sword Sect is because we discovered a secret cave world under the rule of the Taiyin Sect in Zhongzhou. That world was a small world used for sacrifices by the Sword Sect a long time ago to revive Yinglong! Not only are there abandoned altars, but there are also many "human sacrifices" that have turned into monsters! In addition, we also found the notes of a disciple of the Sword Sect, which mentioned that those "human sacrifices" have something called "Yinglong Breath" that will affect the cultivators... So it sounds like the Soul Eater you mentioned is very similar to the "human sacrifices" in that small world!"

The Jade Emperor chose to tell the whole story. Other players didn’t quite understand the Jade Emperor’s behavior, and while he was speaking at length, they started to complain in the team channel.

"Is it necessary to explain it in such detail to the NPCs? They should only be able to grasp the key words, right?"

"It feels like the emperor is communicating with a real person. Is his gaming experience so immersive?"

"Actually, I think I can understand it, because even if we capture key words, maybe if we explain it in detail, we can capture more key words?"

"No way! I heard that the AI ​​in this game is really cool and has its own logic. It seems that the dialogue is not just capturing keywords like in other games, but a real conversation!"

"I must be dreaming! How can it be so advanced?"

"Who knows! Anyway, I think the level of realism in this game is ridiculous. It feels like it's not from the same era as other virtual reality games!"

Several people were chatting in the team channel, and suddenly they heard a long sigh coming from outside the yard.
