Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

Chapter 406 406-The Frantic Escape of the Mysterious Merchant

As "I'm Setting Sail Today" faced John's request, there was a hint of hesitation. He could certainly take John to find that mysterious merchant.

However, his concern was that once John found the mysterious merchant, the merchant might no longer allow him to continue with the long-term quest.

For an ordinary player like "I'm Setting Sail Today", a long-term quest was extremely precious.

In the game Godslayer, quests required players to exert effort, to actively explore and seek out opportunities.

Even top players wouldn't easily give up the quests they had obtained. During the hesitant moments of "I'm Setting Sail Today", both John and Blue Sea could guess the reason for each other's hesitation. Thus, Blue Sea directly made a promise.

"I know that if you take us to meet the mysterious merchant, you might lose the opportunity to have this long-term quest.

So, I'll offer you some compensation; I will let you join our guild. Moreover, once you join our guild, I will provide you with a lot of resources.

At the very least, I will turn you from an ordinary player into an elite player," Blue Sea promised, which excited "I'm Setting Sail Today" greatly.

"If that's the case, then I'll take you to him as soon as possible. However, he usually appears in the evening, and it's still a bit early now. Would you like to explore other areas in the meantime?" asked "I'm Setting Sail Today."

Before John could respond, Blue Sea nodded in agreement: "If that's the case, then let's go elsewhere to see if there are any additional clues.

When it's time to meet the mysterious merchant, you can notify us to come over."

As soon as Blue Sea agreed, John immediately interrupted: "I don't think we need to take separate actions. 'I'm Setting Sail Today' is more familiar with Karen Port."

"Then let's have him continue to take us around Karen Port. Now, there's only an hour or two left until evening. I think this time will pass quickly," John suddenly suggested, differing from Blue Sea's opinion, which surprised Blue Sea.

However, after some thought, Blue Sea also found John's plan to be more reasonable and cautious.

If they were to look for clues elsewhere, "I'm Setting Sail Today" would be out of their sight. Who could guarantee that "I'm Setting Sail Today" wouldn't take any other actions?

"I'm Setting Sail Today" himself hadn't grasped the hidden implications in the conversation between John and Blue Sea. He was just hoping to ensure his entry into the Blue Sea Guild.

"In that case, let me first take you to Karen Port's harbor area. You can see many fishing boats there, and some of them are quite unique."

So, "I'm Setting Sail Today" led John and Blue Sea to the harbor area of Karen Port. There, indeed, John and Blue Sea saw some very unique fishing boats.

For John, these boats were all new, as he had mainly been active around Sunset Mountain and a few main cities. He hadn't spent much time along the coastline.

However, these fishing boats were not as unusual to Blue Sea. Due to his relationship with the Naga tribe and his guild's location being in a harbor, Blue Sea was very familiar with all kinds of boats in the game.

The trio spent about an hour in the harbor area of Karen Port. After familiarizing themselves with almost every aspect of the port, they headed towards the secluded canyon mentioned by "I'm Setting Sail Today".

"We should both remain invisible. After all, we don't know whether the mysterious merchant is a friend or foe.

When you meet him, just interact with him as you normally would. I'll be observing the mysterious merchant from a close distance. If we feel the need to take immediate action, we will do so.

If we think it's unnecessary, you can just follow the instructions of the long-term quest," John detailed the action plan to "I'm Setting Sail Today" upon reaching the outskirts of the secluded canyon.

Blue Sea did not object, as he felt that John had considered everything in great detail.

"I'm Setting Sail Today" seemed a bit worried, but he still braced himself to proceed according to John's plan.

"So I'm going now. It's getting late, and the mysterious merchant must be getting anxious." "I'm Setting Sail Today" hurriedly took a fish, which was not very precious, and rushed to the center of the secluded canyon. John and Blue Sea observed from the entrance of the canyon.

Upon reaching the center of the canyon, "I'm Setting Sail Today" placed the fish on the ground and muttered a few words.

John couldn't hear what he said due to the distance, but it seemed from his lip movements that he was urging the mysterious merchant to appear quickly.

Just after he finished his muttering, a mysterious merchant, shrouded in a black robe, appeared.

"You brought just this fish today?! Don't think that I can't find other adventurers to carry out my quest!

If the next time you bring such a disappointing offering, I will no longer provide you with the opportunity to complete this long-term quest!" the mysterious merchant exclaimed.

The mysterious merchant seemed very dissatisfied with what "I'm Setting Sail Today" had brought, expressing his anger in a few sharp words.

During the conversation between the mysterious merchant and "I'm Setting Sail Today," both John and Blue Sea used a Detection spell on the mysterious merchant. Unfortunately, Blue Sea's Detection spell yielded no results. Blue Sea hadn't pinned his hopes on acquiring additional information through his spell; it was merely an attempt.

John's Detection spell revealed a wealth of information:

[Mysterious Merchant]

[Level: 130]

[Affiliation: Neutral Faction, Materials Union.]

[Special Skill: From Trash to Treasure (The mysterious merchant can transform items obtained from adventurers through quests into more valuable items of similar attributes.)]

John was quite puzzled upon seeing the detailed information about the mysterious merchant. The merchant was just a member of the neutral faction, the Materials Union.

John hadn't encountered many members of the Materials Union, but he had met some in Storm City.

These members of the Materials Union seemed only interested in selling their materials and appeared indifferent to the conflicts between different factions.

Of course, these mysterious merchants would also cooperate with Dark Fiction if they could make a sufficient profit from them.

"Detection spells can't provide more detailed information. We need to have a proper conversation with that mysterious merchant. He must know more!"

John shared all the information he had gathered through the Detection spell with Blue Sea. Then, without hesitation, John decided to approach the mysterious merchant.

Using his [Shape-shifting] ability, John instantly appeared beside the mysterious merchant. Both the mysterious merchant and "I'm Setting Sail Today" were taken aback by this sudden development.

Upon seeing John, the mysterious merchant's expression underwent a dramatic change. He quickly pulled out a teleportation scroll, intending to use it to escape swiftly.

John immediately saw through the mysterious merchant's intent and swiftly used the [Abyssal Prison] spell. As the barrier of the Abyssal Prison manifested, the teleportation scroll in the merchant's hand became ineffective.

However, the mysterious merchant had more than one escape skill. He threw down all the goods he was carrying.

With a snap of his fingers, these goods transformed into corresponding monsters, creating a diversion to distract John while the mysterious merchant made a hasty escape.

He even abandoned the teleportation scroll he had initially pulled out, indicating that he indeed recognized John and perceived him as an adversary.

But the mysterious merchant had underestimated the situation. As John took action, so did Blue Sea. Blue Sea's move was, of course, to prevent the mysterious merchant's successful escape and to pursue him!
