Wang Yu was not the kind of person who would not give in when he was in the right. Since Gentle Beast had already admitted defeat, Wang Yu did not pursue the matter any further.
Even if he pursued the matter, Bookworm was only beaten up once. He did not suffer any losses. To move unhindered, a few of Gentle Beast's people had died. It was better to call it even. After all, Evildoers Run Wild had given face to Wang Yu.
After settling the matter in Hope City, Wang Yu boarded the airship back to Yu Huicheng.
As for Bookworm, he chose to stay in Hope City.
To move unhindered now that everyone knew Wang Yu's identity, no one would make things difficult for Bookworm anymore.
Returning to Yu Huicheng, the first thing Wang Yu did was run to the blacksmith's shop.
The old blacksmith, Simba, was still half-dead. When he saw Wang Yu return, he only raised his eyelids slightly. He did not say much.
"I've completed the mission!" Wang Yu took out the Spirit of the Craftsman God and said to Simba.
"Oh, I'll have to trouble you to pass this to Aria." Simba said listlessly.
"Of course." Wang Yu curled his lips and said, "Where's my reward?"
Initially, Wang Yu and Simba had agreed that after the mission was completed, Simba would help Wang Yu raise his sub-profession level.
"Reward?" Simba shook his head and said, "What reward?"
"What do you think? Of course it's to raise the sub-profession level. "Wang Yu was angry. How did this NPC learn to renege on his promise?
"About that …" Simba smiled and said, "I forgot to tell you. Demonic Alchemy is a secret art of the ancient Titans. The highest level is Advanced … Back then, I told you to raise your sub-profession level to the highest level. You're already at the highest level. Why are you still looking for me?"
"I!!"
No matter how good Wang Yu's temper was, when he heard Simba's words, he almost spat out vulgarities. What the hell was this? He actually played this kind of word game and swindled the reward that he had gotten.
This quest hadn't been easy for Wang Yu. Not only had he been chased by players, but he had also been chased by a Level 100 super Boss.
Wang Yu had been playing games for a while now, so he was no longer the ignorant novice. How could he be willing to work for the system for free?
Seeing Simba acting shamelessly, Wang Yu did not spoil him. He looked at the Craftsman God's Spirit in his hand and said with a smile, "Alright then. Since my reward is gone, I think this Craftsman God's Spirit looks pretty good. It's better to keep it."
Hearing this, Simba's eyes turned cold, and his expression suddenly softened. "Mission item, why do you want to keep it? You can't use it. "
"It's beautiful." Wang Yu weighed the Craftsman God's Spirit in his hand and said, "Nowadays, female players like this kind of shiny thing. I think I can buy it for at least 500 Gold. It should be enough for my travel expenses."
Seeing that Wang Yu's expression didn't seem to be fake, old man Simba immediately panicked. He hurriedly said, "Aiya, look at how muddle-headed I am. I drank too much just now. What did you ask? Reward, right? "
"Yes! Reward. "Wang Yu nodded.
Simba said helplessly, "That Magic Refinement Art is indeed of the highest level. Even if you force me to my death, I won't be able to raise it. However, I obtained this when I was roaming the continent. See if you can use it?"
As he spoke, Simba took out a pure white feather.
Seeing the feather in Simba's hand, Wang Yu was infuriated. He pointed at Simba and said angrily, "Old man, you're so disloyal! I treated you as my teacher and went to great lengths to help you, and you only gave me a feather?"
Indeed, Wang Yu was somewhat resistant to this mission. He only made this trip because of Simba. Who knew that Wang Yu treated Simba as his teacher? This NPC was so heartless. After going to great lengths for so long, he only gave him a feather. He might as well not have given him anything.
"This isn't an ordinary feather. Don't poke it. Right now, it's the best thing I have on me." Simba shook his head, looking as if he didn't want it. With such low quality, he deserved to be a single old dog.
"Yes, why not?" Wang Yu was already used to this NPC's behavior. Having something was better than nothing. Hence, he extended his hand and took the feather.
Divine Feather: Extremely valuable item. Bound after picking up. Cannot be traded, lost, or destroyed.
It was actually a three-way item …
As soon as the Divine Feather's attributes were displayed, Wang Yu couldn't help but be surprised.
The so-called three-way item naturally referred to the three attributes: Cannot be traded, cannot be lost, and cannot be destroyed. In Rebirth, anything with even one attribute was extremely rare.
For example, priceless guild treasures were classified as indestructible items.
As for the three-way item, it was the treatment of legendary godly equipment. Until now, there were only a few of them in the entire game.
Wang Yu often hung out with Quanzhen's experts, so he had naturally heard of these top-notch items. He didn't think that the three-way item he had painstakingly obtained was actually a feather with unknown functions. This was in the truest sense of the word, "What's this for?"
"What's this for?" Wang Yu looked at the feather in his hand and asked Simba in confusion.
Simba shook his head and said, "If I knew what it was for, would I still give it to you?"
Simba's answer was very honest. Wang Yu resisted the urge to beat him up. After some thought, he finally put the feather back into his bag and swallowed his anger and left the smithy.
The three-way item, once bound, could not be sold, let alone thrown away. This old man Simba must have done it on purpose.
Wang Yu, who was made a fool of by Simba, was currently quite dissatisfied. He lowered his head to look at the Spirit of the Craftsman God in his hand. Wang Yu opened his friend list and sent a message to Wuji, "I want to steal an item!"
"Oh? Tell me what's going on? " Wuji was slightly surprised by Wang Yu's thoughts. Wang Yu was the last moral baseline of Quanzhen. How did he fall for it?
Wang Yu didn't hide anything. He told Wuji everything about the old loser Simba and the scheming bitch Aria.
"So that's how it is …" Wuji smiled and said, "That's easy."
"How do I do it?"
"You have to think from another perspective." Wuji said, "If someone pursues your wife, and your wife uses that person's item to please you, will you accept it?"
"Nonsense!" Wang Yu said angrily, "How am I that kind of person?"
"Then that's it …" Wuji said, "I think the City Lord is an overlord. You won't be that kind of person. You don't need me to teach you how to do it, right?"
"Wuji, you're really a scumbag!" Wang Yu heard it and couldn't help but praise.
"Are you complimenting me?" Wuji laughed.
"What do you think?" Wang Yu asked.
"Yes!" Wuji said.
