章節 31: 31. Not a Replica but an Original?!

Sunny quickly opened his Quest Interface and noticed a new quest apart from the previous ten E-grade quests he completed back in Village #273.

_Quest: Fire Wyvern Head.

He closed the interface after reading it once. He then looked at Hua Chen and asked, "Can we talk about my request now?"

Hua Chen nodded and then shook his head, "Your request is related to blacksmithing, but I don't have a smithy here. And I don't think we should talk about it outside a smithy."

Sunny calmly nodded and said, "I can book a smithy in the market area for a day or two. Will that be enough?"

Hua Chen exclaimed in surprise, "You are rich for an otherworlder who is in this world for just ten days."

Sunny didn't comment anything on it except glancing at the number beside the Gold Coin symbol in his inventory.

23,359 Gold Coins.

20,570 was the amount he got after the 4 C-grade class tokens were sold. It took them nearly 30 hours to be sold. Each token's price went above 4,500 Gold Coins. The [Snow Wolf Summoner] token was sold at the staggering price of 5,700 Gold Coins.

"Can we go to the Market Sector now? Or do you have any problem?" Sunny asked Hua Chen as he stood up to indicate his intention to leave quickly.

Hua Chen shook his head and replied, "No, I don't have any problem. You wait a few moments outside. I will pack my hammer and some clothes."

Sunny nodded and went outside and thought about how this would turn out. He joined the game just to earn more money. But now? He is becoming stronger and most likely at the forefront of all players.

'Maybe, just maybe I can aim for the top position?' Sunny thought inwardly, but he shook his head and dispelled such notation a moment later.

'That would require more effort than grinding coding skills for years. I should just enjoy the game while earning some easy money.'

"I am ready to go." Hua Chen's voice broke Sunny out of his musings. He nodded to Hua Chen and then started walking towards the Market Sector.

Arriving at the Market Sector, they searched for a smithy available for rent which is also in a somewhat less crowded location. It took them 57 minutes before they were to find a smithy that fulfilled their requirements.

Sunny rented the smithy for 2 days at the price of 100 Gold Coins per day. The smithy was 64 square meters big. Inside, everything was neatly arranged.

Hua Chen locked the door once they were inside. He then addressed Sunny, "So, what is your request?"

Sunny didn't say anything and took the black-hexagonal token from his inventory. He then placed it on a table near the furnace and asked, "Can you recognize what this item is?"

Hua Chen went forward to check the item. *gasp~* He gasped in shock and his eyes widened in disbelief when he came in front of the table.

"How could it be here? It's impossible." Hua Chen mumbled in a low voice.

Sunny was puzzled seeing his reaction. He said, "I know it's an S-grade item core and an extremely rare replica of an SSS-grade item core at that. But, you don't need to react with such exaggeration."

"An S-grade item core? Ptui! You ignorant fool! This is not a replica. It is the original SSS-grade item core. A relic from one of the previous Legacy Trials. This shouldn't appear this early. No one had reached SSS-grade in this Legacy Trial, yet. Where did you get it?" Hua Chen again went aggressive.

Now it was Sunny's turn to be shocked. As far as he knows the Antican Colony should only have the replica. The original indeed didn't appear in the game until the end of 2nd year.

Without Sunny's intervention, the Antican colony that he stole from would have welcomed a genius Antican at some point in time in the next six months.

Pleased, the Antican Empress would grant the colony a wish. The Antican colony had used this wish in the future and requested the Antican Empress to identify a way to use the black-hexagonal item.

The Antican Empress then made a deal with Gnome race craftsmen. The Gnome craftsman had identified the black-hexagonal item as an S-grade replica core of an SSS-grade item core. They had made it into an amazing S-grade bracelet.

The Antican Empress herself had bestowed the Antican genius from the black-flame pattern colony. The Antican genius- Aurelia had become an extremely powerful and dangerous boss-type for the other race players due to that item. She was only defeated by the S-Class guild 'The Olympus Rulers.'

All of the info about the item and Aurelia's post was shared by a Gnome player in the VR Forum in the future. The players of the Pueblos City were regretting that they didn't raid the Antican territory when they had the ability to.

'It seems that something shady happened when the Gnome took this item for appraisal in my past life.' Sunny thought to himself inwardly.

'That means I don't have the S-grade replica but the SSS-grade original item. If it can be used, I will be way too overpowered. I would definitely be in the top 10 in the AIO (All In One) ranking that will be released after March.' Sunny was feeling and excited by the unexpected gain.

"Do you have a way to make it into an usable item?" He asked Hua Chen with an excited expression.

"I do. But, I can only make an SS-grade item with my skills. And the process will require some ores. Only dwarven blacksmiths are capable enough to make an SSS-grade item with it.

So, you have to arrange all the required ores and other materials required in the process. And If you can complete the deal, I will help you contact a dwarven city. So, What do you say?" Hua Chen said.

*Blip~*

Sunny noticed a red dot blinking on the Quest Interface after Hua Chen said his piece. There is now an extra reward for completing the Fire Wyvern Head quest.
