Players' NPC boss

The Fire Rabbit Forge hung up a sign saying it was temporarily closed.

It didn’t take long for this incident to stir up a small storm on the Godlock forum.

[Nostalgia Party: NO! The Fire Rabbit Forge is closed, my youth is over]

[Big Complainer: Really? I just saved up a bunch of materials and was going to go to the Fire Rabbit Forge to strengthen them]

[The user is unnamed (newbie): Isn’t the Fire Rabbit Forge a store in Balkan City that specializes in selling novice equipment? Why did the boss go to that place specifically?]

[Nostalgia Party: This is the youth of the players who opened the server]

[Golden G: There is a very powerful hermit forging boss there. He is a dwarf. If you get his recognition, you can get the title of dwarf forger. At that time, everyone didn’t know that the forger was locked by a world quest]

[Golden G: Later, everyone really couldn’t find the conditions for opening that world quest, so they gradually stopped looking for it. In addition, the high price of strengthening equipment is not affordable for new players, so the popularity gradually disappeared. ]

[Marika's dog: Isn't it because there is only a 0.01% chance that this master is awake (crying and laughing)? It's even lower than the chance of meeting Marika. ]

[Stamp collecting: Oh, I've seen that old man. I thought he was a statue at first. He slept all day without moving. I even took a photo with him. ]

[Nostalgia party: Fire rabbit Hader is like a blacksmith. They are the tears of the times. They have not disappeared in the memories of old players, thanks to Hader's success rate that is twice as high as other blacksmiths.]

[The user is unnamed (newbie): So high! 】

【Nostalgia Party: That's the dwarf's apprentice, what do you think】

【Unnamed user (newbie): Damn it, if I had known this, I would have squatted there with the materials all day】

【Nostalgia Party: Give up, even if Fire Rabbit Had is awake, it depends on his mood】

【Liver Health: Well, if Fire Rabbit Had is willing to move his little hands and tap more, then I am willing to challenge my physical limit】

…

"That bird is not here today?"

The old man at the fruit stall suddenly spoke to Blaze who was passing by. Now there were only Blaze and the old man at the fruit stall who had not closed the stall.

"Bird? Ah, chicken, she went to reply to the letter." Blaze stopped.

It was almost dusk now, and most foreigners were replenishing their energy to save the world in their own world, so he didn't have to hide so carefully, and could squat down and chat leisurely with this one-eyed old man.

Melusi wrote to him every day, and the content was always very cheerful to show his practice situation. Although her tone was cheerful, Blazer noticed that she always stood alone on the huge stage, looking a little lonely.

Blazer would not ask these questions proactively. He could see that Melusi stood on the stage by her own will, so what he would do was to reply immediately after receiving the letter from Melusi and encourage her.

The opening of the Epidaurus Theater was in twenty days. By then, the crusade against the lion should have ended, and he could sit under the stage and enjoy the performance peacefully.

"Really? You made her your messenger." The old man at the fruit stand smiled and leisurely packed up today's harvest - 15 copper coins.

"My poor fourth daughter~"

"We have known each other for so many years. Aren't your nine daughters living well in other countries?" Blazer didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and took out a gold coin and handed it to the old man at the fruit stand.

"You also know that I have nine daughters. Isn't it for the sake of saving money to see my daughters all over the world that I work so hard to sell fruits?" The old man snatched the gold coins from Blaze's hand without hesitation, and put them into his purse while complaining quietly.

"I had almost saved enough, but I don't know which stinky boy gave three strangers the priceless bronze coins, which caused the old man to not only lose his savings, but also be in debt."

"I have been selling fruits at a reasonable price for more than ten years, and not only was I forced to discount, but the 100 gold coins I saved with great difficulty were all gone, and now I still owe Balkan City 1,490,990 gold coins."

Because strangers will find a shop to sell expensive monster materials at any time, each shop has a large amount of savings to deal with it. Three bronze coins drained the savings of the fruit stall, and generally only the bronze coins need to be handed in.

But based on Blaze's understanding of this old man, he definitely took the things greedily and waited for the strangers to start offering high rewards to sell them.

"How about I introduce my fourth daughter to you for 1.5 million 20 gold coins? I'm not bragging, she looks like me, a man's dream."

"After deducting the debt, you sold your daughter for 120 gold coins?"

"To be precise, it's the person who let me save up 120 gold coins, but now it's 1.5 million 20 gold coins."

Blazer rolled his eyes and didn't intend to respond to the disrespectful guy. He stood up and wanted to leave, but the old man at the fruit stall suddenly asked a very strange question.

"Do you think the strongest spear is stronger, or the strongest shield is stronger?"

"Shield, the spear may not hit, but the shield can block all attacks as long as it is big enough." Blazer is more pragmatic and chooses the one that will definitely be useful.

"What if the spear can definitely hit the heart after it is thrown out?" The old fruit man continued to ask, as if he had to let the two things collide head-on.

"Shield." Blaze thought without hesitation, "The strongest shield can definitely destroy the strongest spear head, so this spear will definitely not be able to penetrate the second shield - my body."

"As long as the person I want to protect does not die under that spear, it is the victory of the shield and me."

"Besides, the spear will be gone after it is thrown."

The old man at the fruit stall was stunned, then lowered his head and laughed, and his hunched body trembled.

"Sacrifice? Correct answer, it's such a simple answer."

"If there is nothing else, I will leave. I am very busy."

As soon as Blaze got up, the old man at the fruit stall reached out and grabbed Blaze.

"This is a rare opportunity, so do me a favor. The reward for this favor is... 1.5 million 20 gold coins, how about it?"

"Go ahead."

Blaze rolled his eyes, but still patiently waited for the old man at the fruit stall to say something. Anyway, he came just to find Master Hader, and there was nothing important next.

"I want to add a new kind of fruit to my merchandise, but unfortunately that kind of fruit grows in a goblin tribe, and I am too old and weak to retrieve the fruit. So kind traveler, can you find these fruits for me, an old man who is running around for the livelihood of my nine daughters?"

Not only is the line formulaic, as if it was copied from someone, but there is no emotion at all, and it is full of praise.

But Blaze didn't mind taking it and taking a small detour.

After confirming the location of the goblin tribe from the old man at the fruit stall, Blaze walked in the direction of the setting sun. The old man at the fruit stall sat in the gradually submerged darkness and watched the boy chasing the sun.

In that one eye, sometimes he saw a young and ambitious lion, and sometimes he saw a handsome and mysterious silver wolf.

"An invulnerable lion, and a wolf."

"It's simply destined, Blaze."
