Zhou Heng would definitely not choose the second Destiny Prompt.
He even dared to offend a terrifying force like the Chang Sheng Family, so why would he care about a legendary Forger who was about to break through level 100.
So...
Zhou Heng continued from his previous words.
"Master, these two items look good, I'll take both, how much?"
The Forger rubbed his hands, looking very happy.
"Little brother, you have good taste!"
"These two items of mine are definitely worth more than their price, you won't lose out or be deceived."
"Not expensive, 500 copper coin each."
He had thought the other party would set a very high price, but now it seemed the other party was also thinking of completing the leap achievement as soon as possible.
Zhou Heng could completely afford this price.
"Okay, then Master, let's trade."
【You obtained elegant ancient flute】
【You obtained Deepwater Flood Dragon (Statue)】
【copper coin -1000】
Seeing the items sold, the Forger laughed heartily.
Out of ten thousand new players, in less than four days, he had already defrauded eight thousand. He only needed two thousand more to complete his leap achievement and embark on the legendary path.
Just as the Forger was envisioning the future, suddenly, an achievement prompt appeared on his retina.
【You failed to defraud the 8000th new player】
【Forger's legendary path leap failed】
【Please reapply for the legendary path leap achievement on January 1st next year】
【Wishing you a legendary future, boundless and endless, immortal and imperishable】
The Forger froze there, staring at the prompt before him with a face full of disbelief.
He, a Forger who was about to become a Legend, had been hunting geese all day, only to be pecked back by a goose?
Damn it, I misjudged!
At least one of the elegant ancient flute and the Deepwater Flood Dragon statue was real.
Coming back to his senses, the Forger looked at Zhou Heng, who had put away the items and was getting up to leave, his face instantly turning gloomy.
After a long while, he sighed.
"Forget it, forget it, it was my own misjudgment after all, how can I blame it on a new child."
"But, was the elegant ancient flute real, or was that Deepwater Flood Dragon statue real?"
"Alas, my leap achievement, who knows what kind of random leap achievement I'll get next year."
The Forger suppressed the irritable impulse in his heart.
He was no longer a low-level player in his twenties or thirties. Killing a little guy who was just level 10 with his level 100 strength, although it was indeed a massacre, he also needed to bear the penalty for violating the rules.
After all, if players of his level could arbitrarily kill new players, then those beastly things from the Chang Sheng Family would have completely monopolized the boundless and endless login areas long ago.
Killing Zhou Heng, the other party might only lose one free resurrection opportunity, while he would lose at least 10 levels.
He didn't know how much these 10 levels meant to others, but he had reached level 100 from level 91 through countless hardships, as wild monsters were really hard to find in this era. He couldn't possibly sacrifice these ten levels just because of one mistake.
Looking at the departing Zhou Heng, the Forger stood up weakly and disappeared onto the streets of Little Bird Town.
...
"Is this elegant ancient flute really not a product of forgery?"
Playing with the elegant ancient flute, and relying on the appraisal class he learned in school, the more Zhou Heng looked at it, the more he felt it was fake.
Because it was too new, so new that it didn't have any Ancient feel to it.
To be honest, if the Destiny Prompt hadn't indicated it was real, Zhou Heng would never have given it a second look.
After playing with it for a while and still not seeing anything unusual, Zhou Heng finally put it into his backpack, placing it next to the unknown ceramic shards.
Arriving at the tavern in Little Bird Town, it was filled with various players and NPCs.
"Black Bear Guild has issued an announcement, officially wanted a new player named Zhou Heng, with a bounty of 30000 copper coin."
"That's strange, why would a large guild like the Black Bear Guild still use copper coin for settlement? It would be much better to just give silver coin."
"Who knows, maybe they just have too many copper coin and are bored."
"Compared to that Zhou Heng who is scavenging resources, I'm more curious about which expert actually sent the Chang Sheng Family Player back to the resurrection point."
"I heard about this too, the only Chang Sheng Family Player in our Little Bird Town was actually sent back to the resurrection point."
"Why couldn't they have been killed by a wild monster? So it must have been deliberate?"
"Little girl, you clearly didn't study properly. Can a Chang Sheng Family Player be killed by a wild monster? If this gets out, believe me, they'll be kicked out of the Chang Sheng Family in minutes."
"Chang Sheng Family, that's an Ancient family that has existed for ten thousand years. How could someone from such a place be killed by a wild monster right after logging in, especially in a remote place like our Little Bird Town."
"Actually, none of you have gotten to the point. When a Chang Sheng Family Player is killed by another player, a scratch will appear on their arm. Although no one knows the principle behind it yet, as long as there is a scratch, it must have been killed by a player. Killed once, one scratch, killed three times, three scratches."
"So, it was really deliberate?"
"Otherwise? Really killed by a wild monster?"
"Where did this powerful person come from, who even dares to kill a Chang Sheng Family Player? Do they really think death is far away from them?"
"Such powerful people are bound to appear every once in a while, they all think their random talents are strong, but in front of the powerful Chang Sheng Family, they are nothing!"
Zhou Heng sat in a corner, sharing a table with a group of people, saying nothing, just listening quietly.
Most of the news revolved around Zhou Heng being wanted by the Black Bear Guild and the Chang Sheng Family Player being killed. Zhou Heng did not obtain the geographical coordinates he needed.
An hour later, just as Zhou Heng felt there was no need to stay, a drunken player's shout came from a distance.
"You guys say, if I go and squat at the Little Bird Inn entrance and act like a dog for that Chang Sheng Family Player, can I get the status of a gigolo?"
"That Chang Sheng Family Player is really beautiful!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the previously somewhat noisy tavern suddenly fell silent, followed by a burst of laughter.
"Brother, stop dreaming, your beard is almost thicker than my hair. Believe me, that kind of beautiful girl definitely won't fancy you."
"At the level of a force like the Chang Sheng Family, those who can catch their eye are either incredibly handsome or have powerful strength."
"In my opinion, only if the player who killed her goes to the Little Bird Inn and kneels on the ground like a dog might they succeed."
A gleam flashed in Zhou Heng's eyes in the corner, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
Hard work pays off. After listening to an hour of bragging and chatting, he finally got the information he wanted.
Little Bird Inn, such NPC-run inns are very expensive. Generally speaking, few players would spend important funds on accommodation at this stage.
Therefore, going to the Little Bird Inn, he could 100% easily find the other party.
And as long as he found the other party, then the other party's resources...
