“Husband!”
Xu Muyan also saw Xin Zhongze and quickly called out.
“Brother-in-law!”
He Yingxue also saw Xin Zhongze and immediately called out.
“Let’s go to the main city together,” Xin Zhongze nodded and said to the two women.
“Husband, we brought you two backpacks full of magic potions when we came. You take them first,” Xu Muyan directly traded the potions on her to Xin Zhongze.
Beside them, hearing Xu Muyan’s words, He Yingxue also quickly traded the potions in her backpack to Xin Zhongze.
“He Yingxue, 20 bottles are enough for me. My backpack can’t hold any more.”
“Okay, brother-in-law.”
After the trade, the three then began to walk cautiously towards the main city following the map’s instructions.
To Xin Zhongze’s surprise, for the next two hours, the three walked along the main road but did not encounter any monsters.
Two hours later, the three arrived at a huge city.
Bichi City.
This was the name of the city.
At the gate of Bichi City, there were two guards.
Xin Zhongze stared at the guards for three seconds, and the next moment, the guards’ information appeared before his eyes.
Bichi City Guard: Level 39, HP 14200, Physical Attack 46-81, Physical Defense 45-56, Magic Defense 42-49, Agility 44, Spirit 46, Skill — One-Slash (Guard charges a slash, dealing triple physical attack damage…)
“That’s it?”
Seeing the attributes of the Bichi City Guard, Xin Zhongze immediately thought to himself, “Is that all?”
This guard’s physical attack value was not even as high as his.
His physical attack value, although the base attack was 5 points, his equipment attack reached 36-99.
However, this guard’s HP, physical defense, magic defense, agility, and spirit were indeed much higher than Xin Zhongze’s.
If he were to face this guard, Xin Zhongze estimated that he would be defeated within two moves.
With the guard’s HP and defense, even if he were allowed to attack, it would take him a long time.
Furthermore, the guard’s agility was over forty points, making it impossible for him to escape the guard’s attacks.
However, the guard was a Level 39 NPC, a strong individual who was about to break through to the fourth tier, so he shouldn’t compare himself to such a strong individual.
Xin Zhongze led Xu Muyan and He Yingxue to the city gate.
“The entrance fee is 100 copper coins per person,” a guard stopped the three.
Upon hearing this, the game prompted Xin Zhongze whether to pay the entrance fee.
Facing such a situation, Xin Zhongze, Xu Muyan, and He Yingxue could only obediently pay the entrance fee.
After paying the entrance fee, the three quickly entered the city.
Upon entering the city, Xin Zhongze noticed that there were many more people inside.
Not only were there more NPCs, but Xin Zhongze also saw some players.
“Are you three new players? Are you from the 36 Great Families?”
Shortly after the three entered the city, someone immediately stopped them.
The person who came was a middle-aged man, dressed in armor that clearly belonged to a warrior.
“What do you want to do?”
Xin Zhongze immediately looked at the other party warily.
“Relax, fighting is not allowed in the city, and I won’t do anything to you. I’m just curious and came to ask.”
“Why are you asking us these things?” Xin Zhongze continued to ask.
“It’s just that I haven’t seen you in Bichi City before, so I came over to chat,” the middle-aged man explained with a smile to Xin Zhongze.
“Oh, I see. We are indeed new here and are about to find a Magister to complete our class change quest. Do you know where the Magister is?” Xin Zhongze asked the other party.
“The Magister? He’s over there. I’ll take you there,” the middle-aged man said enthusiastically.
“No need, we can go by ourselves,” Xin Zhongze shook his head.
When a stranger suddenly showed such enthusiasm, Xin Zhongze naturally became very wary.
Seeing Xin Zhongze’s wariness, the middle-aged man gave an awkward smile and then stepped aside.
A moment later, looking at the retreating figures of Xin Zhongze and the other two, a smile appeared on his face.
“Old Zhang, did you find out? Are they kids from the 36 Great Families?” At this moment, a person wearing a warlock’s robe came over.
“Probably not. They are targets we can win over, but the little ones are very wary of us, so it’s not suitable for too much contact for now. I think once they’ve been ‘socially hammered’ by the people of the 36 Great Families, they will voluntarily join us,” the middle-aged man said indifferently.
“Then we also need to keep an eye on these three little ones. We can’t let them be killed by the people of the 36 Great Families.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll have Shadow secretly follow them to protect their safety.”
“Damn the 36 Great Families! Sooner or later, I will make you taste the iron fist of the people’s dictatorship,” the middle-aged man suddenly muttered fiercely.
“By the way, Old Li, do you still have any ‘selected works of mao zedong’ on you? I want to give a set to a few of the little ones if I get the chance, so they can know that our ancestors once ruled the people,” the middle-aged man asked the other person.
Hearing this, the person called Old Li looked around and then whispered, “The ‘selected works of mao zedong’ is a banned book explicitly prohibited by the Federation. Being caught with ‘selected works of mao zedong’ will lead to imprisonment and sentencing, so I don’t have many copies here, only two sets.”
“What are you afraid of in the game? When you log out, no one remembers anyone. No matter how powerful the Federation is, it can’t control things inside the game.”
“What we need to do now is unite all players who are not from the 36 Great Families, and then strive for the neutrality of official players, to jointly resist the oppression of the 36 Great Families…”
“The ‘selected works of mao zedong’ is a good thing. When you have time, you can copy a few more sets, so that every new comrade who joins us can have a set.”
Hearing this, Old Li rolled his eyes at him: “Do you think copying this is easy? With so many words, why don’t you copy it?”
“Alright, how about this, for every set you copy, I’ll give you 10,000 copper coins, how about that?”
“Deal.”
Hearing this, Old Li immediately smiled.
…
On the other side, Xin Zhongze and the other two successfully found the Magister in Bichi City, and then Xin Zhongze and He Yingxue smoothly completed their class changes.
Next, the three found Xu Muyan’s warlock class change instructor and also had Xu Muyan change her class to a first-tier warlock.
After completing the class change, Xin Zhongze found that the task page on his game panel had simply disappeared.
He asked Xu Muyan and He Yingxue, and both had the same situation: their quest logs had disappeared.
So, it seemed there would be no more quests in the game world from now on.
Their future development would depend solely on themselves.
After completing the class changes, the three began to explore Bichi City.
First, the three went to the Bichi City Weapon Shop.
The Bichi City Weapon Shop was indeed many times more luxurious than the Novice Village Weapon Shop, and the weapons inside were also incomparable to those in the Novice Village Weapon Shop.
Unfortunately, weapons below Level 15, except for the ebony sword, were all physical attack weapons.
In the Bichi City Weapon Shop, the only weapon available for mages was the Level 15 sea soul, with Magic 1-2, which was much stronger than the ebony sword’s 0-1.
However, the sea soul required Level 15 to equip, and the price sold in the weapon shop was also very expensive, reaching over 5,000 copper coins per piece.
Currently, Xin Zhongze’s entire fortune was only a little over 20,000 copper coins, so he could only buy a maximum of four sea souls at 5,000 each.
However, just 4 sea souls would add too little physical and magical attack for him, so he naturally wouldn’t buy them.
After visiting the weapon shop, Xin Zhongze then took the two women to the Bichi City Jewelry Shop.
For rings, Xin Zhongze favored the iron ring. Equipping the iron ring required a magic power of 160 points, meaning Xin Zhongze would need to be around Level 16 to wear it.
The iron ring could add 0-1 magic attack and 0-2 physical defense, truly a good item.
However, this iron ring could not be equipped now, and its price was not cheap either.
For bracelets, Xin Zhongze liked the Sharper Bracelet and the bixie bracelet. The attributes of these two bracelets were Accuracy +2 and Agility +2, respectively.
However, equipping these two bracelets required Level 16 and Level 19, respectively.
Moreover, the prices of these two bracelets were not cheap either.
