Chapter 4: Start over again!
"Five gold is five gold, but let me make it clear, you know what happens if you cheat me..."
She snorted coldly and pointed to the giant mace next to the bar. It was still covered with traces of flesh and blood, and looked extremely creepy.
The opponent's strength is definitely not comparable to that of Su Bai, a level 1 novice.
"Don't worry, I guarantee that I will not cheat anyone."
Su Bai smiled and sat back at the bar.
"Well, that's better."
Dana narrowed her eyes at him.
Ten minutes later, a glass of animal blood wine as red as blood was placed on the bar table.
If you look closely, the wine not only looks like blood, but also has stars shining in it like the night sky.
A whole glass of wine placed there doesn't look like wine, but rather like a glass of "red crystal".
The drunkard Dana stared at the glass of beast blood wine with infatuated eyes. She had never thought that the originally rough beast blood wine could be made so beautiful.
The strong aroma of wine almost filled the entire tavern. Passing guests and shop assistants all gathered around, staring at the glass of wine with eager eyes.
Not long after, a customer shouted loudly: " Madam , I want this glass of wine. I'll pay 10 copper coins!"
"Don't listen to him, boss lady. I'll give you 15 copper coins!"
"I'll give you 18 copper coins! Give it to me, give it to me!"
“…”
The guests began to scramble for it, bidding for the cup of beast-blood wine.
Finally, Dana slammed the table and yelled, "Get out of here! This glass of wine belongs to me, no one is allowed to take it away!"
After hearing her words, the guests finally quieted down and looked at the glass of beast blood wine with some regret, but none of them dared to compete with Dana for it.
After they all left, Su Bai smiled and said, "What do you think, Madam Boss? How much is this glass of wine worth?"
Dana leaned in front of the beast blood wine, her cute little nose twitching as she greedily sniffed the rich aroma of the wine, reluctant to drink it directly.
It took her a long time to come back to her senses from the wine, and the look she gave Su Bai this time was completely different from before.
"How many recipes like this are there? I'll take them all!"
A few minutes later, Dana successfully obtained the recipes for four rare animal blood wines.
Su Bai looked at the 20 gold coins in his pocket with satisfaction. This was a huge sum of money in the early days.
In the money exchange of Tower of God, 1 gold coin = 100 silver coins = 10,000 copper coins.
According to the communication between players on the public channel, Su Bai also learned that 1 gold coin is equal to 10,000 real currency.
In other words, he made a direct profit of 200,000 yuan with this move!
And those players who work hard to hunt monsters outside the Novice Town only earn a dozen copper coins after working hard all day to kill monsters.
Players with better luck may be able to get a green outfit worth 10 silver coins before leaving the novice town.
Moreover, hunting is extremely dangerous and it is easy to die suddenly.
As soon as Su Bai received the currency, he started cultivating without any hesitation and adjusted the cultivation value accordingly.
[Ding! Start cultivating attribute values. After upgrading, strength value will increase by 10 points, agility value will increase by 10 points, constitution value will increase by 10 points, and spirit value will increase by 10 points. ]
[Cultivation time: 10 hours]
【Cultivation items: 4; remaining cultivation items: 6. 】
[Please select the cultivation method: 1. Consume 180 silver coins to double the speed; 2. Consume 720 silver coins to shorten the cultivation time. ]
Huh! ?
Su Bai frowned slightly, revealing a hint of doubt.
The currency consumed in cultivation is more than he imagined. Could it be that after the attribute value is enhanced, the consumption of money will also increase exponentially?
He roughly calculated in his head that after the attribute value increased to 10 points, the cultivation currency consumed would double.
Tsk, according to this algorithm, won’t the cost of cultivating attribute values in the future be an astronomical figure?
Su Bai was shocked.
"It seems that I still need to make more money..."
As he thought about it, he chose the second method of cultivation.
The seven-day novice period is not long, and Su Bai still has a lot of things to do. There is no need to waste too much time waiting at the beginning.
Besides, money is something that you can earn if you don’t have it.
With Su Bai's understanding of the Tower of God, making money is not a difficult task for him.
[Ding! Consume 720 silver coins, cultivate successfully, strength value increased by 10 points, agility value increased by 10 points, physique increased by 10 points, spirit value increased by 10 points. ]
With strength continuously flowing into his body, Su Bai could clearly feel himself getting stronger, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.
He clenched his fists, and his bones crackled.
All his attributes were doubled, and this sudden feeling of power instantly made him feel overwhelmed.
So cool!
Su Bai became excited.
"Alright, alright, let's go!"
He patted his butt and prepared to stand up and leave.
Suddenly my eyes blurred and I subconsciously reached out my hand——
An exquisite dagger appeared in his hand.
Dana behind the counter snorted arrogantly and said, "I won't take advantage of you. This short sword is just a bonus."
For an alcoholic, rare wine recipes are something you can only come across by chance.
What’s more, Su Bai sold four recipes at once. Who knows if he still has any stock?
There is no harm in selling well appropriately.
Su Bai narrowed his eyes and looked at the dagger in his hand. Novice-level weapons did not need to be identified.
【Name】: Exquisite Dagger
【Quality】: Excellent (green)
[Level requirement]: None
【Effect description】:
Physical Attack: 20~25
Magic attack: 10~20
…
Oh, that’s not bad!
Su Bai's eyes lit up.
Although this piece of equipment is far from being top-grade, it is definitely a very good piece of equipment for novices who have just entered the tower. It is equivalent to increasing the strength value by about 9 points out of thin air.
"Thanks, Madam," he said.
Dana held the beast blood wine and said, "If you have any wine recipes in the future, I will accept them."
"Don't worry, we are old acquaintances."
Su Bai winked at her.
Dana tilted her head, not understanding what he meant for a moment.
He did not explain much, but just smiled slightly, hung the dagger around his waist, and turned to leave the Novice Tavern.
As soon as he went out, he saw the disturbed clouds in the sky.
There was a white vortex above the azure sky, with countless clouds being sucked into it.
That is the entrance to the first floor of the Tower of God. As long as you pass through the monster jungle outside the Novice Town and kill the guarding BOSS, you will be eligible for teleportation.
He looked at the transmission channel in the sky, then lowered his head to look at the novice blank outfit on his body, feeling a little complicated.
It ’s like you once wrote an article that you thought was very talented and satisfying, but it accidentally fell into the fire pit or was accidentally deleted and cannot be retrieved.
I feel heartbroken but helpless.
“What if I rewrite it…”
He narrowed his eyes and thought so.
After a long silence, he let out a long breath, the last trace of dejection and frustration in his expression completely dissipated, a gleam of light burst out in his eyes, and he murmured:
"That must be a better and more beautiful article!"
