Although the wild foal's movement speed had increased considerably, it still took Wang Ming more than an hour to return to the main city.
"Damn it, this takes way too much time."
"No, I need to go buy some return scrolls first, otherwise I'll feel terrible if I forget about this again."
Wang Ming opened the map, found the general store, and rode his wild horse towards it.
"Look, someone just rode by on horseback."
"Where, where?"
"Damn, it really is. I just went to the pet store and they don't sell them at all."
"Yeah, I also wanted to buy a rideable pet, but like you, there aren't any for sale."
"But the pet shop owner said we can catch the pets ourselves, maybe we'll get lucky and catch one ourselves."
"That's right, I'm planning to go to the territory of the level 11 wild horse spirit to level up and try my luck at catching a pet. Anyone want to join me?"
"Holy crap..."
"I'll go too..."
"Let's team up."
......
Listening to the crowd's discussion, Wang Ming felt a sense of satisfaction. "Luckily, I managed to buy this only mount pet."
"However, there seem to be more players in this main city."
Five minutes later, Wang Ming arrived at the general store and bought some return scrolls.
Return Scroll (Crimson Moon City)
Description: After use, a teleportation array will be opened at the original location. Players who step into it will be teleported back to Crimson Moon City (within the jurisdiction of Crimson Moon City).
Note: This cannot be used while the player is in combat.
This return scroll is a little different from the return scroll in the starting village; the return location has changed.
The return scrolls from the starting village are now unusable.
Wang Ming destroyed it directly to prevent it from taking up space.
Afterwards, Wang Ming went to the blacksmith shop.
"Hello, sir."
"Hello, what can I do for you, savior of our chances?"
"Uncle, it's like this, I wanted to ask if you sell any refined iron here."
"Fine iron, huh? We have it. Here, how much do you need? Just exchange it yourself."
Hearing the blacksmith's words, Wang Ming smiled and said, "Hehe, you've come to the right place."
"Okay, uncle."
Wang Ming glanced at the items for sale in the blacksmith shop, and then the smile on his face vanished.
There is indeed refined iron for sale here.
However, this refined iron was not purchased with gold coins, but rather exchanged for iron ore.
"Uncle, can the refined iron here only be exchanged for iron ore?"
"Yes, not only here, but also in weapon shops, equipment shops and jewelry shops, they can only exchange iron ore."
"Well, okay, thank you, uncle."
"Hehe, it's alright."
Wang Ming was somewhat disappointed and was about to close the general store's sales interface when he glanced at it and spotted something familiar.
Darts making diagram
Introduction: This document provides blueprints for making darts. After learning these blueprints, you will master the techniques of dart making.
Price: 1 copper coin
...
"Holy crap, dart-making blueprints! Weren't they supposed to be confidential and not for sale? And this price???"
"Uncle, this is the blueprint for making darts."
"Yes, young man, you're interested in this?"
"Yes, because I am a weapon refiner."
"Oh, a weapon refiner, so we're in the same trade. In that case, I'll give you a copy of the blueprints for making this dart."
"System notification: You have obtained the dart crafting blueprint."
"Thank you, Uncle."
"But I don't understand, sir. Weren't these blueprints supposed to be confidential? How come this dart..."
"Haha, young man, the blueprints for our weapon refiners are indeed highly confidential."
"But this dart-making diagram is the most basic thing."
"They are usually used to help new weapon refiners improve their skills."
"This item is sold in any shop that deals with equipment, no matter where you are."
"The most basic things, but I had them custom-made when I was in the newbie village."
Wang Ming recalled the smiling face of Sheng Caiyoudao and suddenly had a bad feeling.
Immediately, Wang Ming studied the dart-making diagram and looked at its detailed description.
Darts (Special Item)

Materials: Iron Ore *1
Description: A toy made from iron ore by an unknown weapon refiner in the Yuanyu Continent. Apart from being able to be thrown, it seems to have no other use.

...
"Grass, something made from iron ore."
"That son of a bitch knows how to make money; no wonder he always has that look on his face when he sees me."
"They've really ripped me off." Back in the newbie village, Wang Ming was actually quite grateful that someone was selling darts.
"Fortunately, now that I know where the darts come from, I can make them myself."
After saying goodbye to the blacksmith, Wang Ming went to the apothecary, where there were still many other players.
Wang Ming opened the sales interface of the pharmacy, and dozens of potions, each gleaming with different lights, appeared before his eyes.

These potions include those that restore health and mana, those that increase the five basic attributes, those that increase movement speed, attack speed, and movement ability, and those that increase attribute enhancement.
It sells a lot more items than the apothecary in the starting village, and the effects are also better.
Wang Ming bought some of everything except for attribute enhancement potions and chanting speed boosting potions.
He even bought over 100 bottles of intermediate-level health restoration potions.
The owner of the pharmacy couldn't stop smiling when she saw Wang Ming buy so many medicines.
Having bought what he wanted, Wang Ming wanted to leave, but the conversation between the two people caught his attention.
"Damn it, you bastard, you've finally arrived in the main city. I've been waiting for you for ages."
"Damn it, is this my fault? It's all because of this stupid Yuan Domain that the Inquiry of the Heart is so difficult."
"If the difficulty hadn't been reduced after the update, I wouldn't have been able to come to the main city."
"And you're the one who's a scoundrel, your whole family are scoundrels."
"Haha, I'll take the feather, I'll take the feather, okay?"
"But I'm really curious, how did you manage to pass the imperial examination with such terrible skills?"
"Who says my skills are terrible? I'm pretty good, okay?"
"Yes, yes, you're amazing, you're amazing, okay? Well then tell me, I'm really curious."
"Well, actually it's because I spent money to upgrade my equipment and kept taking potions that I barely managed to get through."
"Speaking of which, I have to complain. Doesn't this Yuan Domain have any instant recovery potions?"
"If we had an instant-recovery potion, passing this 'Quest for the Heart' quest would be a piece of cake!"
"It made me spend a lot of money to buy equipment."
"Hehe, you should be content."
"As far as I know, some people have spent money but still haven't bought the equipment, and they're still stuck at the 'Questioning Heart' stage."
"Oh, really?"
"Of course, I'm just kidding, you're a puppy."
"Holy shit, you son of a bitch..."
The two clearly knew each other in real life, and they left the pharmacy while playfully bickering.
What was said in jest was taken seriously by the listener.
"Instant recovery potions? You don't have them, but I do!" Wang Ming's eyes gleamed. "I'm going to make a killing from them!"
