Chapter 221 220 Transylvanian Crafts Upgrade Program! (Fog)

Chapter 221 220.Transylvanian Handicrafts Upgrade Plan! (Fog)

While Happy Stick and Master Broken Knife were bargaining, in another tent in the advance camp, the three craftsmen with tailoring skills who escaped from Cadman City were undergoing an “examination”.

But it wasn’t Professor Malcolm, who was currently in charge of the camp’s various production programs, but Consul Miriam’s adjutant, who was standing next to them, and his assistant, who was holding a notebook, were recording everything that was happening in front of them.

The new player, Mrs. Water, who possessed the specialty of “Master Tailor”, was sitting on a chair, carefully examining the three pieces of leather in her hands, which had been preliminarily tanned.

She was looking very carefully, with a tailoring tool in her hand to test the toughness of the leather from time to time, while the three tailors in front of her were anxious, just like students taking an exam.

The time to test the finished product was not long, after a few minutes, Mrs. Water raised her head and smiled as she ruffled her hair, she said:
“You guys did a good job, it seems that you all have mastered the new craft I taught you, so we can move on to the next part of the process.”

Hearing this comment, the three seamstresses in front of them sighed in relief.

All of them were no longer young, and had been working as tailors in Cadman City for many years, so it was reasonable to say that they all had the pride of being craftsmen, but at this moment in front of Lady Shui they had no way to hold their stance.

In front of them, this was a true master tailor, and on the first day they arrived at the Scarlet Fortress, they used their majestic expertise to refute their favorite works as worthless.

Not only that, Lady Water had also personally given them a demonstration on how to make even more superior clothing from the same materials.

Competitions between craftsmen were always simple and rough, because craftsmanship and work did not lie.

The gray, suit-like work uniform that Professor Malcolm was wearing next to him had come from Madame Shui, and its craftsmanship and design style had made even the professor, who had lived in Port Chardonnay for many years and had seen a lot of the world, praise it highly.

Since the craftsmanship was inferior to others, it would not be embarrassing to learn from them.

Especially in Transylvania, this is a tough region, not as good as others have to recognize, get beaten to stand upright, or soon will be reality hard whack.

“Today we’re here to learn about the improvement and making of the Half Inner Armor.”

Mrs. Shui picked up the leather in her hand and took out the drawings she had made earlier, greeted the three professional tailors, and then carefully explained the production method of this “improved type” to them.

This was not her original leather craft, but her expertise as a designer and seamstress made it easy for her to find this classical leather armor production method in another world, and with a little bit of processing, she was able to teach it to NPCs in the game.

What Mrs. Water is teaching is the “Molek” leather making technique from the modern Middle East, the origin is ancient, but after countless craftsmen’s improvement, it is already a masterpiece in this field, and the finished product, no matter whether it’s aesthetically pleasing or practical, is several levels higher than the crafts that have been passed down in Transoxiana.

This world is only 1111 years old, and the accumulated history of several thousand years in the world of small players is not comparable at all.

In fact, not only leather making and tailoring, the fact that Master Broken Knife and Hundred Forged Horse could mix in the camp to become the chief blacksmiths, and also brought along many apprentices, also stemmed from the accumulation of craftsmanship brought about by this kind of history.

Just a wide variety of forging techniques and the use of special methods to remove impurities in the forging process is enough to be called “secret techniques”, and has convinced the blacksmiths in the camp, this continent is not comparable to these “otherworldly techniques” craft, but they are often in the hands of special groups of people. The continent is not without crafts comparable to these “otherworldly techniques”, but they are often in the hands of special people.

For example, the dwarves’ forging art is the best in the continent, and the quality and craftsmanship of their finished products are not inferior to the otherworldly techniques at all.

For example, the leatherworkers of the elves also possessed powerful leather-making techniques, but the problem was that these groups of people with special techniques would not easily pass on their skills.

As the leader of the big pigeon said when he was learning alchemy, this medieval world is still in the level of “technology blockade” and “self-possession”, and there is no channel for various academic disciplines to communicate with each other.

In the eyes of the players, “NPCs” rarely come across masters who are willing to teach them their craft, such as the three tailors in front of them, who listened to Mrs. Shui’s explanations exceptionally seriously, and also used a small notebook to write down all kinds of key points.

This explanation and teaching did not last long, Mrs. Water’s “course” was divided into six lessons, on the one hand, she is a combat professional player, there are still small friends waiting to go out to play together.

On the other hand, the industry itself is a master level of Mrs. Water is very clear, too much at a time is not conducive to learning, after she finished, and answered a few of his “students” doubts, then declared the end of today’s teaching.

When she got up and moved her exaggerated body, Professor Malcolm also came up at the right time and said to Mrs. Water in a gentle tone:

“Thank you for your help with the camp crafters, Master Water, here is your teaching stipend.”

His assistant presented a small pouch of money.

Mrs. Water didn’t reject it and took it in her hand with a smile.

While the other players were still struggling to make money by doing quests, Lady Water had already begun to woolgather from the NPCs, before Consul Miriam invited her to give lessons to the tailors, and had already agreed to feed 50 gold coins per lesson, and this was advanced in the form of manufacturing quests, Lady Water rightfully regarded it as her due reward.

But that wasn’t all, Professor Malcolm added:

“Consul Miriam and I have had discussions, and we feel that it would be a good idea to order special regalia for the administrators of the territory to separate them from the civilians, as an experiment. Perhaps more uniforms will be made in the future, depending on the work that is carried out in the territory.

The Consul would like you to take the lead in designing and creating the new uniforms.

Of course, we will give you the compensation you deserve.”

“Ding.”

The arithmetic jewel on Lady Water’s wrist rang out, representing the refresh of another new manufacturing mission:
[Manufacturing Quest-‘New City, New Weather’ has been triggered!

Mission Objective: The consul of Scarlet Fortress and her adjutant both wish to use your outstanding expertise to design work clothes for the administrators for identity differentiation for the Scarlet Fortress, which is still in the process of being rebuilt.

You may complete the task alone, or mentor your three current apprentices to accomplish it.

Base Quest Reward: 300 gold coins.

Advanced Quest Reward: additional rewards depending on whether your finished product can be recognized by His Excellency Count Cadman.

Task time limit: 72 hours.]

“Aren’t other people complaining on the forums that it’s hard to earn gold coins in this game? Why is it that I’ve only been in the game for three days and I’ve already taken almost 500 gold coins? Is this a case of other people not playing the game quite right?”

Mrs. Water took this quest and spat a little more in her mind.

She chatted with the learned Professor Malcolm for a few moments, and after collecting the various elements needed for this design, Lady Water, who was in a good mood, hummed a song and left the tent with her own Thorn Staff.

The small apprentices of the NPC tailors who were busy around them stopped what they were doing and paid homage to His Excellency, the Master Tailor with the body of a demon.

Lady Water waved her hand to indicate that these hardworking children didn’t need to be so polite, and also went up to correct the incorrect techniques of a few apprentices when tanning leather.

Only after this was done did she leave the area humming, her four companions already waiting for her not far away.

“Nah, my paycheck for the day, all up to the team accounting lady.”

Lady Water smiled cheekily and threw the money bag to Sister Pomegranate, who took it with a wooden face, Lady Water’s gaming career in the past few days had completely overturned Sister Pomegranate’s perception of Real Otherworld.

If the other players were playing the normal mode, then this lady in front of her was definitely taking the VIP channel.

As soon as she entered the game and passed the vocational skills assessment, she was personally summoned by the territorial consul, who then gave her the vocational task of teaching an apprentice, and she was able to receive her salary without spending a penny, and the most buggy thing is that Mrs. Shui, in the case of not being an administrator, was also specially assigned by the Scarlet Consul to have two female Witchhunter veterans, who are proficient in stealthy actions, as bodyguards to protect her closely. “.

The reason given was also very simple.

Mrs. Water, a rare master tailor, was an “important asset” of the Scarlet Fortress, and neither she nor Lord Murphy could allow such a master manufacturer to be in danger during their adventures.

This treatment.
Who wouldn’t be jealous of that?

Obviously we are all playing the game together, why your starting point has exceeded the end of the struggle of us old players to the present ah!

“It’s not fair!”

Little Reed Name, who was sitting on the edge of the carriage, chewed on a fruit-flavored lollipop and spat viciously:

“It’s okay for you to be raised as a noblewoman by your rich husband in reality, but how come in the game there are still NPCs who take the initiative to raise you? You big-breasted goblin.”

“Maybe it’s because I can make clothes and I’m beautiful and kind?”

Mrs. Water laughed, bent down and poked Little Vikramana in the face, and asked again, crossing her arms:
“So, babes, where are we going on our adventure today? I have to get off early today, besides making dinner for my hubby and baby, I also have to spend some time gathering designs for clothes that fit the background of the game over here. I just picked up a quest to design ceremonial clothing for the officials of the territory, and the base reward alone is 300 gold coins.

Although I don’t know what the advanced rewards are, I’m filled with rare vigor.”

She looked back at the busy people in the camp behind her as she said:
“I’m starting to like this virtual world, the people here are simple and studious, they have a respect for skill and the pursuit of knowledge, and the most important thing is that they are made very real.

I always feel like I’m in a real otherworldly place.

In a land waiting to be revived, to pass on my knowledge to more people in need.

Wow, that’s a really great feeling.

It’s like going back to when I was still working. If I hadn’t met my husband, I’d be a professor of design by now. Although I haven’t worked for many years, I still have a heart for teaching and educating people.

But speaking of which, I’m really not an expert in this area of leather making, so helping them improve their leather armor production is already the limit.

If you want to make a real breakthrough in craftsmanship, you have to find a professional.

I seem to have the contacts of a few more peers”

“What? Are you going to drag someone into the pit as well?”

Lumina, who was polishing her beloved instrument on the wagon, grinned as she said:

“Who was the one who was skeptical about this game before? You even said that we were dragging you into the pit of fire, but it turns out that you yourself are enjoying your career as a master in the game instead.”

“That’s right.”

Lady Water didn’t care about her companion’s teasing.

She climbed into the carriage to sit beside Little Vikrama, and as the carriage started, she sighed and said:
“Although I’m happy with my life, with a loving husband and a pair of cute little babies, the knowledge I learned in the first half of my life is obviously not useful in the housewife business, I don’t care that it’s been dusted off in my head, but now I have a chance to teach it to those who need it, which is also very good.

Even if it’s just a bunch of NPCs
Even if it’s just a playtest, it’s nice to revisit the past, and there’s a lot of stuff here that interests me.

For example, the unique aesthetic of the vampires, and the exoticism of the unique culture of the Kingdom of Nordstorf, which is so different from the design on Earth that I find it hard to believe how the development team was able to create such a variety of aesthetic features.

It’s not like they borrowed and reorganized, rather it’s like they designed a complete set of social humanities and customs from scratch.

Frankly, I find it unlikely that this could have been done through mere technological means”

Here she paused.

Orchid, who was driving ahead, grinned and spoke to Lady Water in private chat:

“So, what exactly are you getting at?”

Lady Water gave Orchid a look as she replied in private chat as well:
“Character modeling can be made realistic, the gameplay can be constantly updated, and even the language system can be made through special methods, but details like folk culture and social humanities can’t be built entirely on a virtual foundation.

They can’t do that even with the highest technology.

It was the equivalent of trying to make a world from scratch, and no one could do that.

Because we humans are incapable of imagining colors we’ve never seen before, it’s naturally impossible to shape an alien world out of thin air that has never existed before.

So, Orchid, do you think there’s a possibility .
I mean, are we really in a completely real otherworld right now?”

“Brilliant!”

Orchid shrugged and said in private chat:

“But I can come back to reality by closing my eyes, and there’s a player interface and a quest system and even a gamified upgrade system.”

“You’re overlooking a very important point, your mind has entered a misconception, does what you see have to be true? You have to realize that the current quest system is built on the basis of the arithmetic treasure pearl.

I specifically asked Lumina about this, and their first batch of testers didn’t have these at all when they first entered the game.

My guess is that you guys were tricked”

A glimmer of wisdom flashed in Lady Water’s large eyes under that gentle smile as she stroked the arithmetic jewel on her wrist and replied to Orchid’s private chat:
“I suspect that this is a conspiracy, and that someone has made up a virtual otherworld just for us! Of course, it’s also possible that someone’s technical level is really high, so high that it can already be faked.”

“Yeah, we lack all kinds of evidence now, it’s all just speculation.”

Orchid sighed and said:

“Has Sister Cement ever approached you offline? She warned me yesterday to stay away from this thing.”

“Looked for it.”

Mrs. Water grunted and said:
“But I’m too lazy to care about her, all she knows is to show off her intelligence day after day, boring as hell, if my daughter grows up like her in the future, I’ll be really devastated, I also heard that she found someone in the group to help her scout for the truth, and that guy is hiding in the forums right now.

But honestly, this game is really good for fun, so you’re not planning on going AFK, right?”

“What about the three of them when I’m gone?”

Orchid replied helplessly:

“Especially Little Vikrama, you know her situation, there’s no way she’s leaving here. So, I propose that the two of us just pretend that we haven’t found anything, and bury our suspicions in our hearts until more evidence emerges, okay?”

“Could be.”

Mrs. Water ruffled her hair and added to Orchid:

“But you have to help me find one thing.”

“What?”

“A dictionary!
It’s the dictionary that the children of this world use when they learn to write, I’m going to take some time to learn how to write here, and I guess if we can read the history of this world without relying on the Arithmetic Pearls, and if we can communicate with the natives of this world, we’ll be sure to find more of the evidence we need.”
—
“Geez, letting smart people into the game sure is a risky business.”

In the Blood Wyvern Corridor, Murphy, who had just finished fencing with the “Evil Master”, heard the complete conversation between Lady Water and Orchid Blossom from the Core Pearl, which made him realize that these two smart ladies had already begun to doubt the authenticity of the Real Otherworld.

He could kick them offline and permanently block their login privileges right now.

But Murphy didn’t do that in the end.

“It can’t be hidden.”

He reached out and took the Necessary Evil hovering beside him in his hand, juggling the sword in the darkness of the cloister, and whispered to himself:

“One day all the truth will be revealed, and I have never doubted the wisdom of my compatriots in this regard, let alone such elite human females, yet it is one thing to discover the truth, and another to understand the facts.

Concealment is only a means to an end, cooperation is the only way to win.

I’m also looking forward to how these super intelligences will react when they learn the truth, will they flee the real world in panic?
Or will they be excited to embark on a real, unparalleled adventure?

Well, I’m looking forward to it.

Lend me your strength and wisdom before you discover the truth and make your decision! I need you, this land needs you, and this world needs you.”
