Chapter 43 The Skeleton Merchant, the Best Merchant!
"One, four, five, ten..."
"Relying on mining for emeralds is too inefficient. It seems we need to set up a villager exchange as soon as possible."
Su He scavenged all the emeralds and diamonds from the various mineral boxes and put them into his backpack.
So far, the monsters have dug up a total of 450 diamonds and 60 emeralds.
As for ruby and lapis lazuli, these two minerals are produced in large quantities, but Su He did not keep a detailed count.
Su He returned to the side of the Fighter Skeleton Merchant; there should still be some time before the other party leaves.
Seeing his travel-worn appearance, the Fighter Skeleton glanced at Su He with a puzzled look, then used his skeletal arm to make the number seven on the ground, indicating that he had seven minutes left before leaving.
Su He stared anxiously at the remaining rare items panel for the fighter, not even having time to catch his breath, trying his best to quickly go through all the item information in his brain.
Fighter's Belt
Price: Twenty emeralds
Effect: Can be worn in the accessory slot, granting the wearer the Fighting Expert I effect, greatly enhancing their combat instincts.
Villager Kingdom's Soldier Round Shield
Price: 15 emeralds
Description: The villagers' kingdom has specially issued high-quality round shields to their soldiers. They are more durable than ordinary shields, made of thick and sturdy materials, and will not be easily damaged by battle axes.
Knight's Lance of the Village Kingdom
Price: 20 emeralds
Description: This is a standard-issue long spear issued to soldiers by the Villager Kingdom. It is crafted by the Villager Kingdom's top blacksmiths, is well-made, and comes with a Sharpness II effect.
Intermediate Blacksmith Certificate
Price: 40 emeralds
Description: This is a certificate of intermediate blacksmith status in the Village Kingdom. Giving it to an ordinary villager grants them the status and abilities of an intermediate blacksmith, enabling them to forge various intermediate special equipment. However, there is a small chance that the produced items will be "crude and substandard."
P.S.: He really is a good blacksmith, isn't he?
Decapitator's Blade (Blueprint)
Quality: Purple
Price: 60 emeralds
Description: Weapon blueprints are used to replicate the legendary blade. While the crafted weapons may not match the originals, they still possess formidable combat power. Furthermore, different additional effects will be unlocked depending on the crafting materials used.
These are all great products, absolutely fantastic!
After browsing through the detailed panels of all the items, Su He took a deep breath.
Right now, he only regrets that he doesn't have enough money to buy all five items at once.
"Three out of the five items came from the Villager Kingdom. It seems that the strength of this Villager Kingdom is indeed not to be underestimated."
Looking at the spear and round shield crafted by the villagers, Su He was eager to test the effects of these two pieces of equipment.
However, the MC trading system does not offer players the option to try out this service.
Even if it exists, the final result won't be called a "trial," but rather "freebie."
After all, once a player has touched or taken something, there's never a concept of returning it.
The Fighter Skeleton saw Su He holding his hands above two items, looking like he wanted to buy them but was hesitant. He didn't understand the other party's strange behavior for a while and was stunned.
After a standoff of about thirty seconds, it finally realized that the customer in front of it actually wanted to "try out" its products.
The word "trial use" would never appear in the minds of any wandering merchant, no matter how thoroughly they searched.
This is understandable, of course, since the emergence of this group of homeless merchants, not a single customer has ever asked for a "trial" service.
They're all doing business on a cash-on-delivery basis, and there's not even a refund option.
Of all the customers, Sue was the first to ask the wandering merchant to "try it out".
The Fighter Skeleton Merchant initially wanted to refuse outright, but considering that Su He possessed his family's Friendship Badge, he ultimately agreed to the request.
It picked up the village kingdom's standard-issue rifle and offered it to the guest in front of it.
Su He was completely unprepared for his request to be granted, but his reaction was noticeably faster than that of the Skeleton Merchant.
Su He took the standard rifle from the fighter skeleton.
The small, exquisite item that was originally placed on the ground instantly transformed into a bright silver lance with a distinctly Western knightly style upon being picked up.
The spear, when stood upright, was a full two heads taller than Su He.
Yet he wielded the spear effortlessly, his movements fluid and graceful, making it easy for him to use.
Steve's unique ability to adapt to various weapons and equipment is fully demonstrated in his actions.
The spear comes with the Sharpness II enchantment, and with its own base stats boosted, its final attack stat reaches a full 15 points, making it far stronger than any original weapon.
Its attack range far exceeds that of most original weapons, but Su He is unsure whether its attack range is greater or less than that of the original spear.
And does this knight's lance possess the same characteristics as the original lance?
However, the spear is a relatively new weapon in Minecraft.
Before Su He transmigrated, she only had a general understanding of it and didn't like using it. After arriving in this world, she had never made one herself.
Once the horses are properly trained, it would be a good direction to build a cavalry regiment using these long spears.
Unable to find a suitable target to test its power, the knight's lance was soon returned to the skeleton merchant.
Su He roughly calculated the remaining time and made up his mind to buy all three items except for the two weapons and armor from the Village Kingdom.
All the emeralds on his body were instantly squandered.
After accepting the emerald, the Skull Merchant, a fighter, fixed his gaze on Su He, as if trying to remember the appearance of this customer.
But this period of time did not last long, and the Fighter Skeleton, along with its stall, vanished into thin air.
"It's much more comfortable to trade with the Skeleton Merchant than with the shady merchants in the Village Kingdom. They're no good at all."
Su He packed all the items he had acquired into his backpack. He was extremely satisfied with this transaction with the wandering merchant, as he had obtained all the things he desired.
Su He carefully put away all the items, but the one that intrigued him the most was the intermediate blacksmith certificate.
However, to determine its actual effectiveness, we can only wait until we capture the villagers and conduct further testing.
