Chapter 35: A Bag Full of… Wild Blackberry!

Translator: Zayn_

He looked straight into Lu Qingge’s fearless eyes.

Reyna was slightly moved again, but he still said with some worry, “It is indeed a good thing for young people to have determination and courage. But there are some things that I have to explain to you.”

“It’s just like a lot of materials that have a shelf life.”

“After the [Star Pattern Ore] leaves the [Shadow Den], the spiritual energy inside will gradually begin to dissipate.”

“The material needed to repair the [Determination] must be [Star Pattern Ore] with a spiritual energy content of 98% or more.”

“It’s almost equivalent to the ores collected within twelve hours. That’s why this matter is very difficult and dangerous. You have to think it over carefully.”

Lu Qingge nodded.

“No problem. I will try my best.”

Naturally, Lu Qingge would not miss this opportunity.

After all.

This sword, [Determination], was worth his sacrifice and risk.

Its equipment effect was really too poignant.

Firstly, he was still a Lv1 player.

As for [Determination], this sword…

It just so happened to be a Lv1 weapon!

It perfectly matched his current needs.

In terms of basic attributes, [Determination] might not be as good as those Lv3 blue swords.

However, the value of the additional effect of [Determination] had long surpassed these insignificant values.

As he ooked at Lu Qingge’s unwavering expression, at this moment, Reyna’s resolute expression finally softened a little.

There was a trace of gratification in his smile as his lips curved slightly.

..

Ten minutes later.

Lu Qingge carried an iron pickaxe, a mystic sword on his back, and a small bag.

He walked out of Zhenbei Back Street.

The pickaxe in his hand was given to Lu Qingge by Reyna to be used for mining ores.

The sword on his back was a LV1 blue [Black-Steel Sword].

The sword cost 5,000 Sacred Soul Coins, but Lu Qingge did not spend a single cent.

Before he left, Reyna took the sword from the weapon rack and threw it to Lu Qingge.

It was considered as support and assistance for Lu Qingge’s mission.

Including the bag that Lu Qingge was carrying.

It was also Uncle Reyna’s wish.

When he saw the bag full of… wild blackberries, Lu Qingge stayed quiet for a long time.

He was a little dumbfounded. Because when Uncle Reyna handed the bag to him, he could see that Uncle Reyna really wanted to help himself.

“There are very few good things in our Gran Town.”

“Uncle is also a small businessman, so I don’t have anything to give you. I only have this little token of appreciation.But you must remember.”

“Although this kind of fruit is sweet, don’t be greedy. It contains poison. If you eat too much at once, you will be poisoned.”

Reyna had said those words to Lu Qingge with such sincerity.

“Cough cough, in addition… Don’t make my sword too dirty.”

“I’m just lending it to you, you have to return it!”

This was Reyna’s last sentence.

After hearing this, Lu Qingge felt that this uncle was quite interesting.

His entire body was dirty, and his clothes were covered in thick dust and ashes.

However, every sword on the weapon rack was as clean as the white shoes sold in the specialty stores in his previous life.

“I guess I need to do something else first. Raise [Skill Tree] to LV3 as quickly as possible.”

“At the same time, prepare the supplies. Once the new skill is unlocked, I’ll immediately head to the [Shadow Den]!”

Lu Qingge thought to himself.

“Moreover… Uncle Reyna seems to have high expectations of me. He sincerely hopes that I can do this. Even if it’s just for his kind intentions, I have to do my best.”

Walking on the streets of Gran Town, Lu Qingge looked at the bustling crowd and the sunlight shining on the stone path.

His heart became even more determined.

Many days later.

Early morning.

Caroline saw Lu Qingge again in the hall.

As usual, Caroline sat in front of her desk, mechanically operating the machine to call the number.

In the end, she saw Lu Qingge sitting in front of her again with the running ticket for number one.

Caroline, who was originally a little listless, suddenly became a little energetic.

A trace of spirit suddenly appeared in her calm eyes.

During the days when Lu Qingge wasn’t around, the boring work life became even more boring.

When she was bored, she could at least use Lu Qingge as a topic to chat with Mona.

The moment Lu Qingge left, the only happiness she had disappeared without a trace.

So this time, when she suddenly saw Lu Qingge, Caroline actually felt that quite happy in her heart.

“Good morning, Mr. Lu!” Caroline greeted him with a smile.

“Good morning, Miss Caroline.” Lu Qingge replied politely.

“The matter you entrusted me with last time is almost done.”

Caroline lowered her voice and said, “If nothing unexpected happens, the documents will be issued within this week.”

“Oh, so soon?” Lu Qingge was a little surprised. “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. It’s a small matter.” Caroline laughed.

Although she said so, in reality, Caroline, who had thought that everything would go smoothly, had spent a lot of effort in order to complete this matter.

The little sister was indeed handling this business line.

However, Caroline later realized that she had overestimated her position in her sister’s heart.

When everyone first started working together, their relationship was still very good.

However, ever since his little sister was promoted.

It had only been about a year since they last met, but Caroline felt that she had actually distanced herself from her.

Human emotions were the norm in the world.

However, since he had already promised Lu Qingge, no matter how difficult the matter was, Caroline could only try her best.

Fortunately, the final result was still good.

Under all kinds of worldly guidance, she finally managed to get her little sister’s help.

Although it was a little troublesome, it was still worth it.

“Then what are your plans today, Mr. Lu?” Caroline laughed.

“Same old, I’ll take a bounty mission,” Lu Qingge said.

“What kind of mission?”

“Oh… Are there any quests related to the Shadow Den?”

When Caroline heard this, the smile on her face instantly disappeared, and she looked shocked.

“Shadow… The Shadow Den?”

Caroline thought that there was something wrong with her ears.

“Are you referring to the Shadow Den near the Gran foothills?”

“Ah, yes.” Lu Qingge nodded.

“There is. For example, the X-6 that can be connected now, but…”

Caroline felt a little sweat on her forehead.

“Almost no adventurers will accept the [Shadow Den] quest. That place is too dangerous.”

“Unless their level is already very high or they are strong enough. Otherwise, it is not recommended to accept missions related to that place…”

“I’d like to add that I don’t recommend going to that kind of place.”

“It’s alright.” Lu Qingge smiled faintly. “I know what you’re talking about.”

“Are you sure?”

Caroline looked at Lu Qingge, and her palms were sweating. She said nervously, “The last adventurer who accepted this mission was a LV8 swordsman.”

“That was three months ago.”

“Even now, he still, still…”

“…hasn’t come back.”
