I didn't take a break as I continued to make swords without pause for nearly twelve hours. My previous plan of having already lted materials was a brilliant move, as the five pots were enough for to last a couple of hours. That saved a lot of trouble, effort, and ti.
It also helped in relieving the stress of lting materials in the right sequence. The only thing that I lacked was the power of cleansing, even after I used the skill book that I got from Nada, which helped in raising my cleansing efficiency for five percent.
'Forging Cleanse basic skill: for blacksmith lifestyle class only. it raises the player's cleansing efficiency by five percent.'
After this ti, I felt strange as no one contacted , not Shin, or even Drina. I recalled sothing, when I left the hall I received many ssages from the ga. Did this an I couldn't contact anyone here?
I took my first break as I started to organize my swords. Surprisingly, I had over two hundred swords here, two hundred and thirteen to be precise. Out of these, I had seventy five silver grade swords, forty three white grade swords, and the rest were all bronze grade swords.
I was excited for such a result which exceeded my expectations. During this, I managed to reach level fifteen a long ti ago. I had so issues to solve, including the level of my equipnt, as I could now forge level twenty equipnt if I wanted to.
That wasn't wise, as most of the players now were struggling to reach level fifteen. I sighed, as if I continued to make gears at level fifteen, the amount of XP I gained would drop drastically.
I didn't hesitate for long, as I preferred the interests of my team over my personal ones. The next issue I needed to solve was the problem of communication blockade here.
"Senior, why can't I reach my friends while I'm here?" I finally decided to ask that useless senior, who remained silent and never spoke a word since his last disappointing shock.
"Any communication is automatically turned off so you won't be disturbed by the outside world," he replied with a dejected tone.
It was like I thought, so I asked at once:
"How can I activate it again?"
"Through your profile," he replied briefly with no enthusiasm at all. I felt next ti I asked him, he wouldn't even bother replying to . oh how I miss Nada, she was really kind to .
I ignored him as he ignored while I selected my profile and thought about communications, to find a window with an option to activate it. it was really deactivated, so I chose to make it run. Just as I didn't even close the profile window, a system prompt rang in my ears, it wasn't one, but two.
'System prompt: Player Shin sends you a video call request. Do you want to accept or reject?'
'System prompt: Player Drina sends you a video call request. Do you want to accept or reject?'
'It seems I drove them insane by my absence, sigh.'
I muttered while I picked up Shin first, after all I wanted to check on the updates regarding my new team.
A window popped up as I saw Shin in front of . Instead of seeing him relaxed and happy as I imagined, I found him stressed and his features carried a lot of strange exhaustion. I looked seriously to him, who was panting heavily as if he was talking to while running, as I asked:
"What happened?"
"Solaris, it's the Solaris adventure group, they are trying to hunt us down. We were hunting monsters at a safe location nearby the town, but suddenly a group of one thousand players appeared and started to attack us.
Half of the new mbers died on their hands, and now we are running away from them in the nearby forest. Stay at your place until I find a way to return with the boys safely to the town."
His words were so sharp that they caused deep pain to my heart. I clenched my fist as I said coldly:
"Try to avoid any contact with them, and I will solve this with them."
"What? Do you Solar" I didn't wait for him to say anything, as I closed the video at once and received the request from Drina. I knew what happened, as the news of my deal with Drina and her sister must have reached the ears of that bastard.
I felt great anger, as this player thought highly of himself. Drina appeared at once wearing an anxious face, and when she saw , her face turned red as she paused not knowing from where she would start.
I knew how she felt, but this wasn't the ti to waste any second doing nothing like this, and I didn't intend to bla her or her sister. Both of them were victims, victims just like .
"Bring your sister now."
Although I tried to speak calmly with her, my words ca out very cold. Drina's body shivered when she heard my words, as it seed she mistakenly thought I was mad at her.
I didn't have any ti to waste, and it seed her bigger sister was more experienced than her, as a taller, more beautiful female with a perfect body appeared in front of on the screen.
She was a swordsman, wearing full body armor, helt, gloves, and boots of the sa type. It was a whole set, and that made feel how big the gap between and those old adventure groups was.
"Hello, My na is miss Aria," that elegant strong looking female player spoke first greeting , so I replied:
"Hi, I'm Agatha."
"Drina told a lot about you, and now I can see she wasn't exaggerating. I believe you have already got a whim of what is happening right now to your group, am I correct?"
"Yes," I replied calmly, "I also know you have nothing to do with it, right?"
