Item description: This sword was crafted by Blacksmith Symba during his youth when he discovered the ruin of an ancient civilisation that mainly used this type of weapons. Despite his best efforts, this sword is but an imitation of the swords crafted by this civilisation. It is similar only in form but not in essence. It is a failure.
Failure, a true blue failure... anyone else would immediately sc.r.a.p this weapon when they looked at its attributes.
It"s base attack range was utter trash and even the additional attributes it granted was worthless. It really was a failure.
The sword"s only saving grace was it"s physical design. But regardless of how special or nice it"s design was, a weapon that had lousy attributes would never be used by any player.
But w.a.n.g Yu on the other hand was looking at the sword as though he had struck gold...
As a martial artist, w.a.n.g Yu chose his weapons based on their balance and their shape. Only after he had considered these two factors would he look at their attributes.
The balance of the Universe Sword was much to w.a.n.g Yu"s liking and w.a.n.g Yu especially liked it"s design. Even it"s effects were suitable for w.a.n.g Yu.
[Restrain] was great for sneak attacks while [Long Edge] could increase his damage output. Simply having a sword would increase the measly attack range of a Pugilist while [Short Edge] could be used to enhance his close range combat. All in all, w.a.n.g Yu was very pleased with this sword.
w.a.n.g Yu happily strolled out of the alleyway that the Informant resided in after keeping the Universe Sword. He was in no rush to complete the quest "Forgotten Knowledge" since he didn"t even like guns to begin with. Not to mention the fact that Elf City was at least half a day"s journey away from Twilight City. He mentally made a note to visit that city one day if it was convenient.
After leaving the Informant, w.a.n.g Yu headed straight for the convenience store.
Mu Zi Xian was currently busy at work in the convenience store... she was frantically trying to display all the items that they had to sell.
There really were too many things to sell. There were Li Xue"s medicines, the equipments that Mary forged and even some random things that the others wanted to sell.
Even though the system had an option to sort everything out automatically, it still required the owner to personally set the price for all these items. It was rather troublesome indeed.
"You"re here..." Mu Zi Xian stopped what she was doing when she saw w.a.n.g Yu, smiling sweetly as she spoke.
"Yes, are you tired? I"ll help you." w.a.n.g Yu walked over as he began to help Mu Zi Xian.
"Maybe you should just take a break at the side, it"ll just get messier if you try to help me..." Mu Zi Xian hurriedly replied.
w.a.n.g Yu sighed as he moved said. It seemed that he would always be a child that needed to be taken care of in the eyes of Mu Zi Xian. He had long grown accustomed to such a feeling. Maybe it was because he was a young master of a large family that he was so used to the maternal love from his wife.
w.a.n.g Yu patiently sat by as he watched his virtuous wife slowly sort each an every item in the store. It had taken her a full 30 minutes to finish arranging everything.
"Why are there no customers..." w.a.n.g Yu thought out loud. w.a.n.g Yu knew that the shop was not situated too far away from the city gate which was supposed to be great from a business point of view. But there hadn"t been a single customer even after half an hour had pa.s.sed.
"I"m not too sure, maybe it because we didn"t do any advertising so no one know"s we"re here." Mu Zi Xian replied.
"I got it!" w.a.n.g Yu replied as he purchased a loudhailer from the system shop.
Broadcasting a message in <
10 gold was nothing compared to the price advertis.e.m.e.nts would cost in real life.
"The convenience store in the south of the city is open... we welcome all guests..."
w.a.n.g Yu really didn"t have any talent for advertising. Even the words that he had just uttered were the words that he usually heard from the shop owners from the market.
Even after shouting for an entire day and using up ten loudhailers, Mu Zi Xian still didn"t have any customers. This made w.a.n.g Yu extremely depressed.
At this moment, w.a.n.g Yu suddenly received a message in the guild chat, it was Fearless.
"What"s the matter?" w.a.n.g Yu asked.
"Why the f*ck are you repeating all that nonsense like an idiot?"
"My shop just opened, so I"m advertising it..."
"That"s not how it should be done!" Fearless replied.
"Then why don"t you give me some ideas." w.a.n.g Yu asked. He had to admit that he could never hold a candle to Fearless" creativity.
"Everyone is frantically training right now, who even has the time to browse through the items in your shop? But if you wait any longer then people will forget about you and your deeds. So you have to find a way to capture their attention!"
"Capture their attention?"
"Yes..."
"Maybe I should get you guys to do a strip tease for me?" w.a.n.g Yu suggested. After all, the members of the Quan Zhen Sect were infamous throughout Twilight City.
"Bull, you"ve really been corrupted... to think that you even know what a strip tease is. Sooner or later, your wife is going to start blaming everything on us..." Fearless sighed.
"Then what should I do? Should I get Spring Halo to start imitating people?"
"Why are you so h.e.l.l bent on using us? You should do something yourself!" Fearless scolded.
"But you guys are the only eye catching people I know..."
"You mean you don"t have anything good?"
"I do, but it isn"t something that you can use..." w.a.n.g Yu replied.
"No worries, it"ll be fine as long as someone can use it. Just repeat after me!"
Shortly after, another loudhailer resounded through the city.
"Rare Martial Savant skill [Golden Bell Canopy] will be auctioned off shortly! Come to the convenience store at coordinates 44.26 for a chance to buy this rare skill! Don"t miss out on this once in a lifetime opportunity!"
Afterwards, a screenshot of the skill description appeared in the sky.
"Will this idea work..." w.a.n.g Yu asked Fearless.
"Bulls.h.i.+t! When have my ideas not worked?" Fearless laughed.
"But we still don"t have any customers." w.a.n.g Yu sighed as he looked at the front of the store.
"Relax, once this news spreads you"ll be rich in no time! Maybe you should give me 10% of the money that you make off this sale." Fearless chuckled.
"I"ll give you 20% if it works." w.a.n.g Yu replied. Since w.a.n.g Yu would have to give away 10% of his profits if he used the designated auction house in the city, Fearless" request really wasn"t excessive at all.
