Chapter 35: Stall 035
Translator: 549690339
Setting off on the Talent Development task, Dean McKenzie was especially thrilled, feeling that he was rather lucky.
Next, he could start researching to see which deputy jobs can make money quickly and start preparing for a career change.
However, things quickly soured for McKenzie.
[You cooked a dish and developed some [Chef] talent!]
[You boldly approached a stranger and developed a [Socialite] talent!]
B0x.com[You stepped on a small plant and developed a [Weed Control Worker] talent!]
[You set up a stand and developed a [Merchant] talent!]
[You sweet-talked people, and developed a [Cunning Trader] talent!]
McKenzie realized that every time he performed an action after activating this task, the system prompted him.
In just a few hours, he had accumulated over a dozen different professional talents.
This made him fully aware that this task was not as simple as he had imagined.
The activation of these talents was entirely uncontrollable.
Even when you take something seriously, it doesnt give you any indication.
But when you dont even consider it, it tells you that your talent has been developed.
Moreover, once a profession is developed, there will be no further progress prompts.
You cant see how each of your professions has developed.
This is a critical point.
According to this trend, McKenzie felt that in 30 days, what he might develop would be a talent he hadnt even thought of.
Even if he locks himself in a room studying alchemy for 30 days, the resulting profession might not be an Alchemist but may well be something like a Hikikomori.
Whatever, let it be!
After realizing the mechanism of this task, McKenzie fully surrendered.
[You surrender, you have developed a [Salted Fish] profession talent!]
To hell with the salted fish!
McKenzie rolled his eyes and simply blocked the system prompts, focusing his attention on the task at hand.
At this moment, McKenzie had set up a small stand in District 4 and placed unused items like the Rotten Poison Arrow Bag and the Small Fireball Staff on it.
In fact, McKenzie initially intended to directly sell these items.
However, the prices quoted by the merchants werent satisfactory.
They were much cheaper than the prices set by the stand holders outside.
In the end, Dean gritted his teeth and stomped his foot, deciding to sell it himself!
High-quality goods are never unwanted!
And indeed, as soon as McKenzies stand was set up, the Small Fireball Staff was bought away.
The buyer was a noble and wealthy Mage.
He happened to be using a small Fireball and fell in love with this magic wand at first sight.
Without negotiating the price with McKenzie, he directly threw 1 Gold and 50 Silver coins at McKenzie.
This made McKenzie, who had been trying to bargain a higher price, feel a painful twinge in his heart.
Damn it!
He quoted too low a price!
However, taking in 1.5 Gold was satisfying for McKenzie.
Turns out, McKenzie was doing well for a first-time stand holder, just as he sent off the rich Mage, another buyer immediately made a price inquiry.
Big bro, how much for this arrow bagoh, its you, big bro!
McKenzie looked up in surprise, discovering that the familiar face was none other than Xander Xavier, the honest young man who almost shot Doggy Three with an arrow at the Skeleton Cave and pointed out a monster hunting location to him.
Its you! For you, its 60 Silver coins.
McKenzie had a good impression of this young man, he was honest and humble, and in a sense, if he hadnt given up the monster hunting spot to McKenzie, how could he have had this harvest, right?
Therefore, McKenzie gave the honest young man a sincere discounted price.
That doesnt seem right!
The young man was a bit overly naive, scratching his head: Big bro, you wont make much of a profit from this, will you?
Ill pay you some more, big bro!
In the end, the young man generously gave McKenzie 60 Silver coins and added a ring.
Name: Mana Recovery Ring
Quality: Ordinary
Level: Level 8
Equipment requirement: Mage
Effect 1: Level 1 [Mana Recovery]
Effect 2: Level 1 [Mana Recovery]
A ring with two Level 1 Mana Recovery, which can recover 2 Mana points every five minutes.
How to put it, for other people, this ring is not very useful.
After all, you can only equip one ring per hand, and there are only two equipment slots. Trading them for 2 Mana points every five minutes is definitely not a good deal.
But McKenzie agreed because the rings value was low, and it was something he currently needed.
After the transaction, McKenzie wanted to chat with the young man.
But before McKenzie had a chance to speak, the young man, who was fiddling with the newly acquired Rotten Poison Arrow Bag, suddenly changed his expression and hastily apologized to Dean McKenzie before leaving.
Whats up with him?
McKenzie curiously watched the young man leave in a hurry.
He seemed unusually excited.
Never mind, lets not worry about him.
Afterwards, McKenzie took back his gaze and continued tending to his stand.
At this point, there wasnt much left on his stand, just a Mana Potion (Tiny) Formula.
However, he also put up a purchase notice.
Seeking equipment with mana recovery or mana storage attributes or equipment with the skill Bone Shield.
Three hours later, McKenzie could only reluctantly close down the stand.
The formula couldnt be sold because it required a side job like Alchemist or Pharmacist to study. As for the equipment-
There were indeed ones with Bone Shield, but when he tried one on, he found out that it couldnt boost the level of his already enhanced Bone Shield, so he had to let it go.
Apart from that, he couldnt afford the gear needed for mana recovery and mana storage, which were too expensive.
Just as Dean was packing up his stall, planning to look around and purchase supplies before heading to District 5, a group of men in Professional Alliance Enforcer Uniforms suddenly appeared before his stand.
There were four of them, standing in front of his stall, forming a semi-circle around McKenzie.
So, youre Dean McKenzie
The aggressive aura from the newcomers left McKenzie stunned; he innocently raised his hands.
Yes, thats me.
Please, come with us!
Um, may I ask whats going on?
We cant disclose that at the moment, but youll know once you come with us!
Next thing, a flabbergasted McKenzie was whisked away by the Enforcers
