Zongman: A Story That Begins From The Wrong Place

"Freshly imported Bobo fruit~, crispy, sweet and delicious, adventurers must try it!"

"Fried Potato Balls with Red Bean Cream! Fried Potato Balls with Taro and Purple Mud! Fried Potato Balls with Salt Flavor!"

"..."

There was constant hawking from both sides of the street. When Qi Shaoyun heard the fried potato balls, Qi Shaoyun couldn't help but stop and turned his head to look for the sound.

Tall, pure-looking, bronze-skinned, and revealingly dressed, she could tell from her physical signs that she was of the Amazon race.

Obviously, this is not the blue ribbon goddess.

Touching the only 700 Fares left in his bosom, Qi Shaoyun took out 100 cruelly, and went forward to buy two red bean cream fillings.

As breakfast, continue to look for the blacksmith shop while eating.

Even the blacksmiths of the Hephaestus family have good and bad, and not all members have the right to sell equipment in the Tower of Babel.

Success is often a gift to those who are prepared.

Since you choose to join the Hephaestus family, you must be fully prepared. You can't just run to the door of the family without thinking, open your mouth and shout that I want to join your family.

As one of the most popular families in the entire Orario family, there are countless people who want to join the Hephaestus family every year.

If they would accept anyone they saw, then the Hephaestus family would have already become the most numerous family of Orario.

And Qi Shaoyun searched for the blacksmith shop of the Hephaestus family in order to obtain information from insiders.

Of course, the time is limited to this morning.

Because in the afternoon, he had to go down to the dungeon to hunt some goblins on the upper floor to maintain his daily expenses.

If you are looking for other shops, it may take a while, but if you are looking for a blacksmith shop, then things are much simpler.

Looking for the dull knocking sound of "ping ping pong pong", Qi Shaoyun quickly found a blacksmith shop with the mark "Ηφαιστο?", which is unique to the Hephaestus family.

Wiping off the crumbs of potato balls on the corner of his mouth, Qi Shaoyun stepped into the blacksmith's shop. The moment he stepped into the shop, he could feel the difference in temperature between inside and outside.

The huge burning stove in the room made the average temperature in the whole room more than five degrees higher than the outside world.

Perhaps sensing that someone had entered, a naked-chested strong man in front of the forging platform slowly stopped what he was doing.

And put the sword embryos that had cooled down back into the furnace.

Putting down the forging hammer in his hand, the man turned his head with a smile on his face, looked at Qi Shaoyun who was standing at the door, and then asked, "Does the customer need to customize or repair equipment?"

Staring at the benevolent blacksmith, Qi Shaoyun took out the remaining 600 mana, and opened his mouth to answer under the slightly puzzled expression of the other party.

"Can I use this money to borrow your forging table for a while?"

"Forging table?"

The strong man looked at Qi Shaoyun in astonishment. It was the first time he had encountered such a guest in Olali for so many years.

But when his eyes fell on Qi Shaoyun and saw the image of fighting all night in the dungeon last night, he understood something instantly.

Opening his mouth and laughing, the man didn't pick up the 600 fare.

"As long as you can swing it."

Without too many words, the man turned around and pulled out a spare forging hammer that was one size smaller from the forging table.

"Take..." The man was about to throw it to Qi Shaoyun casually, but he stopped halfway through the lift.

From his point of view, the youth who covered every piece of protective gear and could even afford only 600 mana were probably newcomers who had just arrived in Olalie, and their level must be around Lv1.

If you are still an Agility adventurer, it is very likely that you will not be able to catch it, and you may even be injured by the forging hammer.

"Try it, can you swing it?"

As he spoke, the man handed the forging hammer to Qi Shaoyun.

Knowing that the other party meant to take the initiative to let him go whoring for nothing, Qi Shaoyun didn't say many polite words when he was in such an embarrassing situation, and reached out to take the small black hammer.

It was only when the strong man let go that he realized how heavy this fist-sized forging hammer was.

The right hand directly dropped by 30 centimeters, and only then did it exert enough force to grab the hammer in his hand.

Based on my feeling, the weight of this spare forging hammer is at least one hundred catties.

If it was when his system was Lv1, he might not even be able to lift the hammer with both hands.

See this scene.

The sturdy man of the Hephaestus family couldn't help showing a look of astonishment.

He knows his own forging hammer, even some Lv2 adventurers who are not good at strength may not be able to pick it up with one hand.

But if you can afford it, you can afford it. Whether you can swing it or not is another matter.

But soon he was surprised again.

I saw Qi Shaoyun, who was holding a forging hammer in his right hand, came to the front of the forging table and immediately hammered on the anvil with a "ding".

Then he took out an arrow from the quiver behind him, took off the arrowhead and clamped it to the anvil with iron tongs, and then there was a "jingling" knocking sound.

Qi Shaoyun may not be able to make weapons, but such trivial things as sharpening an arrow can't help him.

"It's quite strong, little brother."

Unknowingly, the strong man changed his address to Qi Shaoyun, and asked a little curiously, "Who is your god?"

Hammering the arrow non-stop, Qi Shaoyun answered without looking back.

"I just arrived in Olali these few days, and I haven't decided which family to join."

He didn't say that no family members were willing to take him, and that would only invisibly reduce his own value.

"You haven't joined the family yet?!"

Hearing Qi Shaoyun's answer, the man showed surprise and astonishment.

Looking at the wound on Qi Shaoyun's body again, he asked in disbelief.

"Did you go down the dungeon by yourself before you joined the family?"

heard the words.

Qi Shaoyun stopped the movements of his hands, turned his head and grinned at the man, very much like the simplicity and innocence of an anime hero.

"Olalie is a romantic sanctuary for every adventurer. Whether I become a member of the family does not stop me from yearning for the dungeon!"

Staring at Qi Shaoyun in a daze, the figure of the back that turned back to beat the arrow earnestly again, the man remained silent for a long time.

What the young man said just now brought back his memories many years ago. Why didn't he come to Olalie with such passion and disregarding all opposition?

Think here.

The man picked up the forging hammer again, and stepped forward to push away Qi Shaoyun, who was hammering hard on the arrow, complaining in a tone of resentment: "If you beat like this indiscriminately, the arrow will be finished sooner or later."

As he spoke, he grabbed the iron clip and recast the arrow himself.

A total of thirteen arrows became as brand new in less than ten minutes under the man's superb skills.

"As expected of a master craftsman of the Hephaestus Familia, it looks like a newly purchased arrow."

Qi Shaoyun has never been stingy with compliments that don't cost money.

The strong and strong man who was precisely flattered showed a satisfied expression, clapped his hands and replied calmly: "If I don't have this ability, how can Lord Shangshen allow me to open a shop?"

Suddenly thought of something, the man regained his composure.

"Going to the maze next?"

Putting thirteen arrows into the quiver, Qi Shaoyun nodded and said, "I used up all my coils on the way to Olali, so I have to go to the labyrinth to earn some living expenses."

"Also, thank you very much for your help!"

After all, he turned around and was about to leave the blacksmith shop.

But just as he stepped out of the shop, a man's voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"then!"

Hearing the sound and looking back, Qi Shaoyun saw the Black object coming towards him, and subconsciously reached out to grab it.

When he saw what was in his hand, genuine astonishment appeared on his face, and what the man threw was a dagger.

"It's my loan to you, remember to pay it back double in the future."
