1055: Receiving

Leaving the spiritual lamp specialty store, Li Changkong once again wrapped himself up tightly.

As he led his warhorse towards outside the City, a surge of excitement gradually rose in his heart.

Finding a Vog Country citizen to cooperate with in selling iron ore—if this decision had been made before, Li Changkong would never have considered it, nor would he have dared to.

It was like playing with fire; one wrong move and the entire Li Village would be wiped out!

But as the saying goes, the bold starve the timid.

If he wasn't a little bolder, how could Li Village possibly become strong?

Of course, the main reason was also the existence of the System, which gave Li Changkong a portion of confidence.

Plus, having dealt with Qiao Yi for a long time, he knew that guy only cared about money.

In matters like this, he was a very suitable Partner.

Combining these factors, Li Changkong made this risky move today.

Fortunately, everything was not in vain in the end.

The completion of this cooperation also meant that Li Village would not have to worry about money in the short term.

As his thoughts drifted, at a certain moment while walking towards outside the City, Li Changkong's breathing suddenly hitched.

On this bustling street, in front of Li Changkong's field of vision, were two Men wearing the casual clothes of Renault Family Soldiers.

These two...were the guys who tortured him in the prison last night!

Li Changkong's palms were clenched tightly; even though the System had completely healed his wounds last night, the pain that touched his nerves was still faintly present!

"Hahaha, I told you that woman was sick. Han Te spent so much money sleeping with her, and now he's also infected and has to go beg a Magician for treatment. It's hilarious!"

Li Changkong's face was completely covered. As he passed by the two, he could hear the Middle-aged Man among them laughing without restraint.

The perverted Old man who was his Partner beside the Middle-aged Man also revealed a mouthful of yellow teeth, took a swig of strong liquor, and smacked his lips, saying, "There are quite a few people in Town who can perform healing magic, but every single one charges an exorbitant fee. Han Te is going to have to pay a lot this time, hehe."

"That's not necessarily true, have you forgotten about Su Liang?" The Middle-aged Man said with a hint of cold sneer in his words, "He is highly regarded by Magician Renn Lord."

"Now he has even learned profound magic from Magician Renn, including healing spells!"

"He said this morning that he could use the healing spell he just learned to treat the injuries of our Renault Family members for free."

"Han Te can go get a free ride. It's a good scheme to win people over."

Speaking of this, the Middle-aged Man's face showed dissatisfaction: "I don't know what Magician Renn Lord is thinking. That guy just offered his brewing technique, and Magician Renn Lord actually wants to take someone with such an appearance as a Tu and even teach him magic!"

"Alright." The Old man beside him interrupted his Middle-aged Partner's words: "Su Liang after all saved Magician Renn Lord's Child, and also voluntarily offered the brewing technique of Li Village. He is someone Magician Renn Lord values, so say less."

"Hmph, it makes me uncomfortable thinking that this kind of person can actually order us around!" The Middle-aged Man's expression turned cold: "That guy who was locked up in the prison last night should still be alive, right? It's good to have someone to vent on!"

...

Watching the backs of the two leaving, Li Changkong paused for a moment.

He wanted to kill these two.

For no other reason than the revenge from yesterday.

But reason told him that in the City, at this time, he couldn't.

And from the fragmented discussion between these two, he learned some very important information.

Magician Renn highly valued Su Liang!

Furthermore, he intended to take him as a Tu!

If this had been before, after hearing this news, Li Changkong would have been overjoyed for Su Liang.

But now, clearly understanding Su Liang's character, he was more aware of the danger he and the entire Li Village were about to face.

In their conversation, the two said.

Su Liang was about to become Raine's Tu.

It was about to, not had already become.

This state, it could be confirmed, was the problem Su Liang was facing when he saw him yesterday!

He only needed to wipe out the entire Li Village, playing this trump card, to gain the approval of Magician Renn and directly become his Tu!

Li Village's stable days were numbered.

Once these guys discovered that he was out of prison, the disaster for Li Village would likely come even faster!

"Expand the land, I must have more territory, only the System can help me overcome the difficulties!" Li Changkong muttered seriously in his heart.

After confirming this idea, he turned and walked towards another street in the City.

Busen City is very large, roughly divided into three sections.

Central District, Prosperous District, Outer City District.

The area where Li Changkong had always been active was the Outer City District.

Under normal circumstances, the Outer City District was enough to meet the needs of travelers for trade and purchase.

Weapon trading street.

The liveliness of this street, compared to the spiritual lamp specialty store, had significantly more people.

After all, spiritual lamp is used by groups, and one person represents a group of dozens or hundreds of people.

And weapons are generally bought for oneself.

Squeezing his way into a relatively quiet shop, Li Changkong looked at the drawing board in front of him.

The prices of various weapons were written on it.

[Apprentice Fire Magic Staff] (50 gold coins / piece)

[Novice Magic Invisibility Cloak]: (600 gold coins / piece)

[Knight Shield. Light Faith] (170 gold coins / piece)

[Knight Shield. Sun's Radiance] (800 gold coins / piece)

"My friend, what do you need? I think I can recommend some things to you." The Boss in the shop didn't notice Li Changkong's appearance because his face was covered. His attention was more on the horse he was leading, so he immediately recognized that Li Changkong was a serious customer.

"Do you have Knight sets?" Li Changkong asked a question he had never dared to ask before.

"Knight sets? Of course we do! Whether it's Knight shields, Knight greatswords, Knight lances, and various other weapons, we have them all!"

"Furthermore, the Holy Light infused in each weapon is available for you to choose."

"Whether it's Light Faith, Sun's Radiance, or Duanmu Mingyue's Radiance, we have them all!" The Boss was very enthusiastic.

"Do you have sets that are not infused with Holy Light?" Li Changkong asked again.

This question, however, made the Boss's expression stiffen, and his enthusiastic attitude also weakened: "Without Holy Light infusion, can it still be considered a Knight set?"

"My shop doesn't sell those things."

"If you want to buy those, you can go take a look at the blacksmith shop next door."

Hearing the Boss say this, Li Changkong noticed a not-so-small blacksmith shop at the end of the street.

That's right.

Holy Light, for a Knight's weapon, is the most crucial and important part.

If it's missing, it can't really be called a finished product, and it's impossible for these shopkeepers to sell them.

...

"Clang clang clang..."

In the blacksmith shop, the sound of hammering iron was constant.

Li Changkong was discussing the price of purchasing a set with the Teacher who was smoking a pipe.

"Ten shields, ten iron swords, ten sets of armor, twenty saws, hammers, shovels... a total of eighty silver coins."

"Do you need it delivered?"

The Teacher tapped his pipe, and as he exhaled smoke, he asked Li Changkong.

"No need."

...

Outside the City.

Li Changkong led his horse, slowly making his way towards Li Village.

With so many things loaded on the horse's back, he was unable to ride back to the village.

Buying these iron swords, iron shields, and armor was actually Li Changkong's way of wanting to test the System reward he received today.

The perfect level of [Light Faith]!

Light Faith belongs to a type of Holy Light, and it is also an Entry-Level Holy Light.

Only those who have cultivated it to Perfection can infuse this Holy Light into weapons, causing the weapons to undergo a complete transformation and become true Knight sets!

If feasible, with these ten sets of equipment, the overall strength of Li Village would experience a significant improvement!

From another perspective, if this approach was feasible, Li Changkong would also have another faster way to make money!

Of course, this was just a comparative statement.

They could handle the iron ore with a little caution.

As for Knight equipment, if they dared to sell it, the higher-ups of Busen City would likely take notice!

Compared to those small amounts of money, Vog Country wanted to firmly hold onto things that made big money like Knight equipment!

When Li Village hadn't grown up yet, once they focused their attention on making money from this, they would only perish faster!

...

Busen City.

Renault Family, prison.

At this moment, the prison was slightly chaotic.

The reason was the discovery of a prisoner escape!
