"Good luck."

After browsing all the spoils, the smile on Su Ye's face never stopped.

King Slime's two most valuable items - the Slime Hook and the Slime Saddle - were actually dropped by him at once!

If he remembered correctly, the drop rate of the sticky saddle was slightly higher, about 50%.

The Slime Hook only has 33%, or one third.

The probability of two items appearing at the same time is only one in six, and he actually encountered this!

As for the other two pieces of "Ninja" series protective gear, one is missing: a helmet.

It’s not that Su Ye has bad luck. The treasure bag can only produce two pieces of ninja armor at most.

If you want to collect them all, you have to play it a few more times.

The set effect of the Ninja Armor is to increase the movement speed by 20%, which is pretty good.

However, this came at the expense of a lot of defense.

In Su Ye's opinion, the loss outweighs the gain.

Overall, this Boss Challenge was very rewarding.

The only pity is that the Slime King loot unique to Calamity - the Crown Gem - did not drop.

"Sure enough, a 10% drop rate is still too low."

"Fight a few more times. With the grappling hook and the mount, it should be easy to fight the Slime King."

Under Lily's curious gaze, Su Ye equipped the grappling hook on his arm and raised his hand gently.

I saw a blue hook with a gel-like texture flying out and grabbing a corner of the ceiling.

Then, Su Ye's body was pulled to the ceiling by the hook and fixed firmly.

"Is this the experience of using a grappling hook in real life?"

Su Ye was hanging upside down on the roof, feeling a little congested in his brain.

“It’s convenient, but you still have to get used to it.”

With the grappling hook, his mobility has been greatly enhanced.

Combined with a double jump, you can walk on any complex terrain as if it were flat ground!

At least it will be a lot easier to explore environments like the underground jungle.

"Master, what are we going to do next?"

Lily looked up at Su Ye, her amber eyes full of curiosity.

"Let's go clean up the store at Babel Tower. You can come with us."

Su Ye retracted his hook and landed easily.

Since he couldn't return to the Terraria world for the time being, it would be easier for him to have Lily stay with him.

"Also, remember to call me Captain in Orario."

"Yes Master...ah no, Captain."

(I worked overtime today, so the update is late... I will try my best to update it)

Chapter 28 Preparations before opening a store

As a holy place for adventurers, the "Tower of Babel" built on the dungeon is full of shops designed specifically for adventurers.

Most of them are shops run by commercial families.

The most representative of them is the "Hephaestus Familia" to which Su Ye belongs.

"The fifth floor... this should be the one."

After getting off the elevator-like suspension device, Su Ye held Lily's little hand and looked around.

The shops in the Tower of Babel are generally located on floors above the fourth floor.

Because the first floor is similar to a foyer, used to accommodate the numerous adventurers entering and exiting the Tower of Babel and the dungeon.

The second and third floors are public facilities managed by the Adventurer's Guild, such as the gold exchange office and the appraisal office.

The key to the clan’s business that Su Ye obtained at the Molten Fire Festival is a shop on the fifth floor.

"Captain, is this also a product of magic stone?"

Lily looked back at the "elevator" they took when they came here and asked in a low voice.

Unlike when she was in the Terraria world, after she went out, she turned back to the way she was when Su Ye first met her.

She covered her little face with a large hood, as if to deny everyone's prying eyes.

"Yes."

Su Ye nodded and explained softly.

The principle of this lifting device is very simple. A large number of magic stones are installed on the base to convert magic power into buoyancy.

In modern society, effects that require cutting-edge technology to achieve are like playing house with the intervention of "magic".

"However, because the magic power in the magic stone will be exhausted, it will be replaced every once in a while."

"So that's it..."

Lily nodded her head, not quite understanding what was going on.

As a supporter, she has always been curious about why the Adventurer's Guild can infinitely recycle magic stones.

Where were the recovered magic stones finally used?

Today I finally got to know the tip of the iceberg of "Magic Stone Technology".

The scenery on the floors inside the Tower of Babel is completely different from the streets of Orario.

Almost all of the people you see here are armed adventurers, with different races, genders, and styles mixed together in a dizzying array.

Because this entire floor is mostly owned by Hephaestus's family, the adventurers who come here have clear goals.

That is to find the equipment you like, or to maintain the damaged armor or weapons.

When passing by the display window where weapons and armor were placed, Su Ye also took a few glances using his identification ability and couldn't help but sigh.

As expected of equipment made by Hephaestus's family, the quality is excellent.

If compared with the armor level of Terraria.

The equipment here at least has the attribute of "gold armor".

Some of the high-end items that are the store’s treasures even have armor panels from the hard mode period!

"Is this the effect of 'development of ability'?"

Su Ye thought thoughtfully.

Most of the blacksmiths of Hephaestus's family are above Lv2 and have acquired the "forging" development ability.

With this ability, you can use the power of "God's Grace" to add additional attributes to equipment.

For example, a sharp sword that will never break, arrows with tracking effects, etc.

It is definitely impossible to produce something of this size using ordinary forging methods.

The "Magic Sword" sought after by countless adventurers is one of them.

Su Ye is only Lv1 now. If he wants to gain development capabilities, he can only accumulate great deeds and try his luck when he levels up...

No, not necessarily.

With the "Terra Craftsman" skill, he will definitely be able to gain "Craftsman" related development abilities when he levels up!

"Wow... Everything here is so expensive."

Just as Su Ye was browsing the equipment in the window, Lily also made a surprised sound.

"Any weapon costs several million faris..."

"This red sword costs thirty million faris?!"

"I'm afraid Lily wouldn't be able to afford it even if she saved for a hundred years..."

"After all, it is a high-end product branded with the emblem of 'Hephaestus'."

Su Ye touched Lily's head. Although it was covered by a hood, the touch seemed good.

"Captain, is there any difference between having an emblem and not having one?"

"certainly……"

As a member of Hephaestus's family, Su Ye naturally knew the ins and outs of this.

"Even among my clan, only a few blacksmiths are qualified to engrave the clan emblem."

"Because it concerns the commercial value of the 'Hephaestus Familia'. As long as the Familia emblem is engraved, it means that this is high-quality equipment produced by Hephaestus."

"If you deliberately sell at a low price, you might even be punished by your clan."

Of course, this doesn't mean that the Hephaestus Familia doesn't have cheap items suitable for low-level adventurers.

It’s just that most of these low-level equipment are sold in the name of individuals.

"Eh? If that's the case..."

Lily seemed to have thought of something and her eyes widened in surprise.

"Since the captain can open a shop here, does that mean you are also qualified to engrave the clan emblem?"

"Yes."

Su Ye smiled, then stopped and looked up at the deserted shop in front of him that had no sign hanging.

"We're getting there."

This is the facade of the family business he acquired.

For the next year, he enjoyed the benefit of free rent and was able to do his best.

After opening the door with the key given by the goddess, a dull air filled with dust hits me.

The room inside was not really dirty, but because no one had taken care of it for a long time, a lot of dust had accumulated.

"Anyway, let's clean it up first."

With Lily's help, the store soon looked brand new.

As for the furnishings in the store... Su Ye didn't even need to buy them, he could just rub them with his hands.

"Lily, give me some wood and stones, and some gel."

"Ok!"

After hearing Su Ye's instructions, the dwarf girl quickly took out a large amount of materials from the inventory.

She has a full 100 slots in her inventory, and with the piggy bank that’s a total of 160 slots. She’s like a mobile human warehouse!

"Workbench, furnace, anvil, sawmill, heavy workbench, solidifier, glass kiln... that's about it."

After decorating the store with synthetic furniture, Su Ye looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction.

After the store is decorated, the next step is to fill it with merchandise.

However, Su Ye did not have the materials to make equipment, and the iron ingots he had obtained from Miss Aegina had been used up.

Although wood can be used to make some low-level weapons such as wooden armor, wooden bows and wooden swords.

But... selling these groceries under the title of Hephaestus's Familia is a bit of a waste of talent.

"Put some healing potions and mana potions there first, and we'll talk about the equipment later."

After thinking for a moment, Su Ye bought a batch of potions from the Terraria store and placed them in the store window and cabinets.

"Captain, I think those torches could be sold, too."

Lily, who had the function of "merchant", raised her hand and suggested.

"The torches in our hands can be considered magic props in Orario."
