Chapter 110 – Black Tortoise Token (1/2)

Fatty smiled wryly when he saw Drucker appear out of nowhere. This is cheating. Cheating! They blocked me off when I literally just got back!

The players who saw what happened all began to bicker amongst themselves again after Fatty departed with the cavalry.

“Was that really a player? He could be a messenger from the Imperial Capital!”

“He’s definitely no normal person to be able to use the teleportation portal the Imperial Capital and have such ties with the NPCS!”

“I wonder what treasure he holds…”

…

At the City Lord Manor, Lin Xi looked down at Fatty and said slowly, “Money Grubber, I heard you went to the Imperial Capital? How was it? Did you find any Holy Spirit Stones?”

“My Lord, I did find a Holy Spirit Stone, but only one. I still need four more,” Fatty revealed his sole piece of Holy Spirit Stone.

Lin Xi’s eyes lit up.

Drucker also went over to pass it from Fatty to Lin Xi.

“Very well. Although one Holy Spirit Stone is not enough to completely seal the crack, it will last for a while,” Lin Xi said in satisfaction. “What about the other materials?”

Fatty handed the Snowsilver Grass, Mystical Silver Ores and Crimson Pearl Grass. He had gotten the Fierce Dragon Gang to buy enough Crimson Pearl Grass for several tens of thousands of gold coins. Fatty truly hoped it was worth it. As for the blood of a mid ranked yao, Fatty found out previously that the city lord manor had plenty of that, so he didn’t need to worry about it.

“Although you didn’t gather all the mission items, I can tell that you worked hard. I will give you your reward now,” Lin Xi waved his hands.

A ring sounded out near Fatty’s ear.

Ding.

System Notification: Congratulations. You have temporarily completed the mission “Sealing the Crack”. +1000000 EXP, +1000 Reputation. You have received Teleportation Token. You have received Black Tortoise Token.

I predicted that the Teleportation Token would be mine, but what is this Black Tortoise Token for?

Black Tortoise Token: A special token unique to Black Tortoise City. One of the uses is to accept missions from the Black Tortoise City’s City Lord Manor.

“Drucker, go and retrieve a vial of Magma Dragon blood and bring it along with these items to the mine. Ask Grand Magus Jijilu to go over as well. We must limit the crack and prevent it from expanding,” Lin Xi ordered.

“Yes, my lord!” Drucker received the items with both hands, then marched away.

“Money Grubber, although the crack will be temporarily sealed, we cannot rest until it is completely sealed. You have to continue to work hard,” Lin Xi turned to Fatty.

“My lord, this one will keep it to heart,” Fatty said respectfully.

“Hmm? That’s a nice thingy,” Lin Xi suddenly held up his hand. The Phantasm Ghost Claw, who had shrunk itself down to the size of a normal person’s hand, flew out from Fatty’s clothes with a shiver.

“Phantasm Ghost Claw? So it’s the Phantasm Ghost King’s claw. Interesting. Very interesting,” Lin Xi checked the hand out with a smile. “I didn’t expect you to capture one of the Phantasm Ghost Claws in the Ancient Battlefield. Very good!”

Lin Xi looked towards Fatty. Fatty did not understand what he meant by that, but when he saw how the Phantasm Ghost Claw trembled, he was getting rather frantic. Please don’t blame it on me. Please!

“This isn’t useful for you, so lend it to me for a few days,” Lin Xi messed around with the Phantasm Ghost Claw for a bit, then chucked it on the table.

The pitiful claw shivered in fear even though it was chucked just like a mere common item.

“My lord, if you want it, then just take it.”

Fatty did not mind it at all. Not only was the Phantasm Ghost Claw useless, it was also trouble. Giving it to Lin Xi as a favor was far better than carrying it around.

“Mm, very well,” Lin Xi was very happy with Fatty’s response. “I’ve got another mission. Do you want it?”

“Yes, of course.”

Ding.

System Notification: You have accepted the mission “Gathering Equipment”.

Mission Details: Due to the bats having occupied the mine closest to Black Tortoise City for a long time, the city lacked the ores to forge equipment, so the city’s troops have not changed their equipment in years. Gather a thousand Level 30 Knight Armors and a thousand weapons at Level 30 or above within a month.

A thousand!? Fatty was shocked. One thousand set of Level 30+ items was no small sum. It was a huge amount even for a guild! Did he get addicted to exploiting me or something, so he’s making me to everything for him?

Fatty peeked at Lin Xi and noticed that Lin Xi didn’t even look his way. Lin Xi was merely messing with the Phantasm Ghost Claw. The poor little thing had been ordered to play rock-paper-scissors with Lin Xi!

“My Lord, a thousand set of equipment is too much. I don’t think I can gather that much in time.” With that in mind, Fatty tried to negotiate.

“You should have a thousand weapons, right? Don’t tell me that you don’t. Turn a thousand weapons in first, then think about what you’re going to do for the one thousand sets of armor,” Lin Xi looked at Fatty with a smile.
