Online Game: Super Beast Tamer

Chapter 17 Red Name Tamer

Su Ming appeared at the novice teleportation point in Thornroot City.

In Destiny, there is no country, only a federation of cities, and each city has a certain degree of independent jurisdiction.

The city of Thornroot belongs to the Mitian Federation, located in the southeast of the continent. It is a small federation consisting of three cities, and the cities here are famous for their sweet fruits.

The architectural style of Thornroot City is very uniform, with white walls and red roofs. The crossroads running through the east, south, west and north are very spacious, enough for six carriages to run side by side.

There are player teleportation points at the four directions of the Cross Avenue. These teleportation points are usually gathering places for players. The novice teleportation point in the south is relatively deserted, but there are still people hawking their wares.

"A set of level 40 tops, pants, belts, and shoes, with a total armor bonus of 20 points, which is 10 points higher than what is sold in the store. It is a must-have for novices at home, traveling, and leveling up. Now you only need gold coins to pack them all up and take them away. There are only three sets left, and they will be sold out while stocks last." A player with two swords on his back and red eyes was shouting out his wares. Judging from his appearance, he should be a berserker.

In the game, the eighteen professions will have distinct characteristics after changing jobs, making them very easy to distinguish.

For example, the red eyes of the berserker, the whistle of the beast tamer, the sword bag of the sword apprentice, etc...

In front of the Berserker's stall, there were two or three novices like Su Ming, who had just come out of the Novice Village.

Su Ming leaned over to see what was going on.

After Xiao Hei reaches level 10, his appetite increases greatly, and his devouring skill can allow him to eat 5 pieces of white equipment, 2 pieces of bronze equipment, and pieces of silver equipment.

Bronze equipment and silver equipment may be relatively rare, so Su Ming plans to fill up the white equipment first.

Just as he approached, Su Ming heard a swordsmanship apprentice say:
"Don't be fooled. You can get a set of these equipment by going to a subordinate town of Thornroot City and doing errands for ten minutes. He is just trying to trick the newbies."

"If you don't want to buy it, get out! What are you talking about here!" The Berserker's face turned black.

"Haha, he not only cheats but also curses. Ten gold coins can be sold for more than 100 RMB. With that money, you might as well find someone to guide you. 10 gold coins can be used to upgrade to the next level. People like this cheat people at the novice teleportation points in various cities. If they can cheat two sets of people a day, they will make a lot of money. Everyone, disperse!" As soon as the swordsmanship apprentice said this, the novice players all left cursing.

Seeing that he couldn't sell any of his items, the Berserker said a few harsh words to the swordsmanship apprentice, packed up his things, and left on the teleportation array, probably going to another city to cheat people.

Su Ming watched with great interest. The Novice Village was full of NPCs and few players. It was the first time he had seen such a scene and he just found it interesting. He paid close attention to what the swordsmanship apprentice said, so he caught up with him and asked politely:

"Hello, I want to ask, which city is this quest you mentioned done in? Which NPC should I look for? Also, how do I exchange game coins for RMB?"

The swordsmanship apprentice looked at Su Ming and frowned:
"There are a lot of quests on the forum. Just look for them yourself. And you don't even know how to exchange game coins into RMB. Are you mentally retarded or are you deliberately trying to make fun of me? Go away, don't waste my time."

The players don't seem to be very friendly.

Su Ming was criticized and felt depressed.

"Master, let's kill him!" Xiao Hei said angrily above Su Ming's head.

Because it was the first time to go out of the village, Su Ming did not put Xiao Hei back into the pet space. He let it also see the scenery and put it on his head. It was cool, as if he was wearing a hat.

"Forget it, forget it. He doesn't know I can't go on the forum, so it's normal for him to think I'm deliberately looking for trouble."

Su Ming was wandering in the street. Thornroot City was hundreds of times larger than the Novice Village, and there were too many NPCs. It was impossible to ask for tasks one by one like in the Novice Village, so Su Ming was quite confused.

At this moment, he remembered the words of the swordsmanship apprentice.

Ten gold coins, you can ask someone to bring it to you.

He has a lot of money now. He has 70 gold coins on him, which is equivalent to 700 yuan in RMB.

10 gold per level, you can reach level 17, which is almost the same as mainstream players.

Near the teleportation point, in addition to people selling equipment, there are also many people who guide novices. In fact, they are not necessarily guiding novices. Many people who died in PK, while doing tasks, or in dungeons need others to guide them. The market is quite large.

"A level 20 fire elemental sorcerer is leading a group of people. He has learned to set the prairie on fire. His group attacks are highly efficient! 10 gold per level, 5 gold increments, 3=2, come quickly!"

"A level 18 fighter is leading a group. Quickly clear the barren grassland. 10 gold per level, 4 gold increments, 4=1, hurry up and get some people in!"

"A level 22 swordsmanship apprentice will lead you to experience the pleasure of mowing down enemies. 9 gold per level, 5 gold per level, 4=1. Pay first, then lead. Once you jump out of the car, you won't be able to leave!"

Some of these leaders were shouting, while others simply placed a sign next to them and were in a semi-offline state. In this state, the game screen would be converted into a flat reality on the game helmet, just like using a computer offline. Then they could monitor the situation in the game while surfing the Internet.

Su Ming couldn't do it. In reality, he couldn't even open his eyes.

Su Ming found an online player and asked:

"Brother, what does this 5 gold increment and 4 gold increment mean?"

Seeing that Su Ming was a novice, the buddy enthusiastically explained:

“10金指的是10级带到11级的价格，5金递增，就是指从11级带到12级，就需要15金的意思，12级到13级，就又涨到20金了。”

Su Ming nodded. He understood. Just like a taxi, there is a starting price.

"What if you jump out of the car and don't retreat?"

"This means that after you join a team, if someone offline tells you to quit, it's called jumping off the team. Not quitting means not getting your money back. This is mainly to prevent some people from quitting with 99% of the experience and deliberately not paying.

How about it, do you want to join the group? I'm a level 17 musketeer, I kill monsters very quickly."

Su Ming shook his hand and refused to get in the car.

It is quite expensive to find someone to guide you. Su Ming used up all his money on level 4, and he doesn't know how difficult it will be to level up after level 10.

Just when Su Ming was about to leave the city to have a look, a player with a wild boar walked out of the teleportation point. On his chest was a wooden whistle exactly the same as Su Ming's. He was a tamer.

According to Su Ming's observation, among the many players near the teleportation array, animal trainers are relatively rare. The most common professions are sword-wielding ones, including those with dual swords, great swords, and magic swords...

The reason why this suddenly appearing animal trainer caught Su Ming's attention was because his name was Yellow.

Su Ming learned from the novice guide that the player's name is divided into four states, namely white name, yellow name, red name, and red with yellow.

In destiny, actively PKing players or NPCs will gain sin points.

A sin value of 0 is a white name, a sin value of 1 to 5 is a yellow name, and a sin value above 5 is a red name.

Red names will be restricted to urban activities. However, if they surrender themselves, they will become red with a hint of yellow. They can enter and leave towns, but will be monitored and have their experience locked. They must complete public welfare tasks issued in the city.

There is no reward for this type of task, it can only help you quickly get rid of the red name.

Few people would choose to waste time doing quests. Most of them would just hang out in the wild and kill monsters to eliminate their sin points.
