Quiver (2)

After everything that had happened, Mu Lan was certain that the monsters would attack him. But his Agility stat was currently 21, which meant he could dodge incoming attacks. The monsters within his range suddenly began to attack. Most of them had long-range attacks, while the others couldn't even get close to Mu Lan. He ran with all his might toward the outskirts of Tao Lake.

As he ran, Mu Lan tried to avoid the acidic spit attacks of the poisonous frogs. He knew their level was 15, but to him, they appeared as "??" since the game didn't display the levels of monsters that were 10 or more levels higher than the player.

Mu Lan continued to move swiftly, trying to distance himself from the acidic frogs. He maximized his Agility to avoid any attacks and moved as quickly as possible, all while keeping an eye on the dangers around him and his escape route. He was determined to escape this perilous situation safely.

Having left Tao Lake without a scratch, Mu Lan quickly checked the scroll in his inventory. When he saw that all the necessary materials were there, he felt a bit of relief. Everything was going according to plan. There were three different places where he could find these materials.

"First, they could drop from monsters, but this could take a long time."

"Second, they could be found in the game's marketplace. In this place, where items put up by players were sold, one could trade using in-game currency or real money. The game company took a 10% commission on every sale."

"Finally, they could be obtained through various quests."

Mu Lan quickly made his way to the marketplace in the center of the city and saw that the necessary items were being sold. The players who had these items at the beginning of the game were incredibly lucky. If they had known about the creation of this quiver, they would never have sold these items.

After checking the prices, Mu Lan completed the purchase right away. He spent a total of 70,000 credits, leaving only 30,000 in his bank account. Although he hesitated a bit about spending the money left by his family, he knew that this investment was crucial to achieving his goal.

Knowing he had all the necessary items, Mu Lan quickly headed to the NPC. He handed over the scroll he had obtained from the shrine to the NPC. As soon as the NPC received the scroll, he asked Mu Lan to provide the materials needed to craft the quiver.

[Begin crafting the Magical Quiver?]

Yes / No

After selecting "Yes" in the prompt, the crafting of the magical quiver began. He had 1 hour until the crafting was complete, and Mu Lan intended to make the most of that time.

Since he had never used any arrows, he planned to sell the 100 arrows in his inventory for 10,000 credits at the marketplace. After all, he would soon have unlimited arrows. Knowing that at the beginning of the game, no one would have even 10 copper, everyone would withdraw from the marketplace. Aware of this situation, Mu Lan put his arrows up for sale. Then, he set off to prepare a surprise for Beng Zeng.

When Beng Zeng arrived in the city, Mu Lan wanted to take him to the paladin master to obtain a special hidden quest. Additionally, he needed to find a shield for him. A good shield early in the game could take them far. Unable to find a shield at the marketplace, Mu Lan immediately thought of an alternative method.

The reward for completing this hidden quest was an upgradeable shield. How had he forgotten this crucial detail? Upgradeable shields were among the best items in the game; they were bound to the user and never dropped. The magical quiver was also included in this. As long as the user didn't sell the item, it would never be lost. Now, all he had to do was wait for Beng Zeng.

Mu Lan also focused on the idea of earning extra money by making potions. While waiting for Beng Zeng, he decided to use his free time to learn potion crafting. He went to the alchemists' guild to complete the novice training and received the training quest from the master. This training would give him a significant advantage in making and selling potions within the game.

Mu Lan wanted to improve himself in potion crafting as well. To take advantage of this opportunity while waiting for Beng Zeng, he went to the alchemists' guild. He needed to complete the novice training because he wanted to become an alchemist. He began by receiving the training quest from the alchemist master.
