The Night Adorer Chapter 27: Preparatory work
A private carriage with a ‘Lion Hair’ badge is driving on the streets of the Jazz Quarter.
Sulman sat in the carriage, listening to the sound of horseshoes outside, quietly waiting to go home.
Because he attracted a silver hunter, Steward Sean admired him very much, and even with that, the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce also received good positive feedback. It seems that Chris's professional crisis can be alleviated. In view of this, Chris regarded Sulman as a golden thigh, and sternly ordered the driver to carry Sulman back, and obeyed his instructions throughout the afternoon.
As for Chris...
"Just right, I can accompany Ibis to the furniture market in the afternoon to purchase..."
Sulman thought a little brazenly, but didn't realize that it was Ibis who accompanied him to purchase.
However, there is a private carriage that obeys orders. It is indeed a lot more convenient in terms of transportation. It is within the range of Gangdian City... No, it should be said that it is the entire northern cold soil, all civilized city states. The level of traffic is similar to the Victorian period on earth.
Mechanical vehicles powered by steam power have not yet become widespread. It is said that only churches that believe in ‘steam dominance’ can see steam locomotives in the moving castle led by them. As for other civilized city-states, there are only common horse-raising carriages, the source of which is the snow nightmare horses, and carriages composed of a single or several horses are the scenery on the street.
The cost of a private carriage is expensive, because a well-trained snow night horse, plus the cost of the carriage and accessories, will cost about 240 gold, which is roughly equal to the income of a reporter for half a year. This is middle-class income. threshold. The reporters above can also be regarded as people with the same income, such as highly skilled craftsmen, shopkeepers with better incomes, or newly hired clerks (the lowest level of civil servants), etc., 240 gold pounds can be more than them. Almost the annual salary, which does not count the maintenance costs on the private carriage.
So ordinary people can't afford horse-drawn carriages. At this time, public horse-drawn carriages have become the first choice for ordinary people.
In Gangdian City, the starting fee for the bus carriage is 3 copper pennies, which includes the distance of two kilometers. When the distance is exceeded, an additional fee of 1 penny per kilometer is charged.
More than half of the cost of public transportation is borne by the city hall, which is regarded as a kind of city-state welfare, so the price is cheap.
Of course, there are many people in the public carriage, the space is relatively narrow, the riding experience is not as good as the private carriage, and there is a fixed route, and you can only get off along the route. After getting off the bus, you often have to hike for a distance to reach the goal. Place.
As a decorated private carriage, it stops at No. 73 Nancy Avenue, in front of the townhouse.
The young woman next door who was watering the flowers couldn’t help but glanced at it. Although the residents of the jazz district are generally above the low class, there are many middle-class people, but they want to buy a private carriage and use their The financial resources are also somewhat inadequate. Only when he truly enters the level of a squire can he afford a carriage.
Sulman got out of the car and came to the front of the house, knocked gently, and soon the door was opened. Ibis was wearing a popular cake skirt with black lace-like long gloves, lightly holding a small parasol. With her snow-white skin, she became more and more beautiful.
It seems that she was ready a long time ago, just waiting for Sulman to return.
"Madam, your outfit is not suitable for traveling." Sulman glanced at the other person and deliberately joked.
Hearing the words, Ibis pursed her mouth and looked a little aggrieved. Just as she was about to go back to change her clothes, Sulman reached out and stopped her, then smiled and pointed behind her——
"Of course, I have prepared a transportation tool for you, which can solve this problem."
"Mr. Sulman, as a gentleman, your character will make you lose a lot of points." Ibis couldn't help but teased and retorted.
At this, Sulman smiled slightly:
"In front of outsiders, don't forget, you have to call me'brother', not Mr. Sulman."
"........."
Ibis looked at his back in the car, her silver teeth clenched and creaked in anger. Finally, she took a deep breath and calmed down some turbulent mountain peaks. Then, she carried her skirt corners and walked. Get in that private carriage.
accompanied the carriage to start again, da da da, amid the rhythmic sound of horseshoes, Ibis sat on the opposite side with a cold face, without saying a word.
There are two rows of seats in the carriage, facing each other. Sulman is happy and just ready to make some preparations.
——Make a ‘preparation’ in strength for the upcoming Northern Auction.
"Panel."
Sulman thought silently in his heart, the next moment, his character panel popped out, forming a faint blue translucent light curtain that only one person can see in the line of sight, with his attributes and skills on it, and below Long experience points.
After being evaluated by the bounty guild, Sulman gained a total of about 1,600 experience points in the iron smelting incident. According to the current situation, he has two distribution options.
The first is to continue to improve the main position level, probably enough to improve to about 3 levels.
The second is to improve professional skills, which can probably be more than 5 levels.
After thinking about it for a moment, Sulman made a decision in his mind. The next moment, his mind focused on the professional skills column.
[Hint: After spending a lot of experience, your skill ‘Touch of Bitterness’ has been upgraded to Lv2. 】
[Hint: After spending a lot of experience, your skill ‘Touch of Suffering’ has been upgraded to Lv3. 】
[hint...]
[Reminder: A lot of experience is spent~ IndoMTL.com~ Your skill "Touch of Suffering" has been upgraded to Lv5, which triggers skill sublimation, and gains an additional skill effect. When you use "Touch of Suffering" , You can attach the effect to the object, that is, the weapon effect. 】
[Note: When the touch of bitterness exists as a weapon effect, its power is affected by the material of the weapon. The stronger the weapon, the better the effect that the touch of bitterness will get an extra boost. In addition, the touch of bitterness acts as When the weapon is in effect, it injects spiritual power +10%. 】
After a while, Sulman's experience was exhausted and he returned to the pauper.
"The skill has been sublimated once, and the next time it will be Lv10 full skill..." Sulman nodded in satisfaction, just like the scene in his memory, the initial skill of the night knight was sublimated in Lv5 for the first time. , And it is a qualitative change. From this stage onwards, he can use weapons.
All kinds of weapons, with the effect of the ‘touch of bitterness’, can be used with mere physical skills, which is by no means a concept.
Knight, how can you be unarmed?
Next, I have to get a weapon, um, a weapon suitable for transcendents, even if I find the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce, it is difficult to get it. Think about it again, the right place in the entire steel city... ...Probably there is only a'secret gathering', yes, transcendents of different forces, in a place where secret transactions are conducted like a black market, Sulman thought of a solution, and the corners of his mouth rose.
Ibis, who was sitting on the opposite side, suddenly got excited. She looked at Sulman, who was smiling inexplicably, and she couldn't help feeling uneasy.
Instinctively, she tightened her clothes tightly, her legs were clamped into a seam, and the white paper couldn't be inserted.
This...
This guy must have not thought of anything good!
