On the main street of the Trade Center, a man wearing a black cloak quickly walked into the Starstreak Trading Firm that stood tall beside the street. The new ….
Due to the popularity of the Starstreak Trading Firm, there were a lot of players coming and going. Moreover, players wearing cloaks were very common. Hence, the man did not attract the attention of other players.
If they were to observe carefully, they would discover that the two longswords on the man's back were very exquisite. One of the longswords emitted a faint black flame, and the other one emitted a cyan light. With just a glance, one could tell that the longswords were not ordinary. Moreover, the man's equipment had its own style. It was obvious that the longswords were part of a set, and the quality of the longswords was not low.
This man was none other than the Shifeng disguised as his smurf, Hei Yan.
Previously, Shifeng had spent more than half a day forging a total of 600 Basic Mana Armor Kits. Among them, 400 were physical-type armor kits, and 200 were magical-type armor kits.
He had a pile of Copper Ores, Bronze Ores, and Basic Recovery (Mana Recovery) Potions to forge the Basic Mana Armor Kits.
The Philosopher's Stone could directly refine ores from stones. There was no need for Shifeng to purchase them. Only, the Basic Recovery (Mana Recovery) Potions would cost some money. However, compared to the effects of the Basic Mana Armor Kits, the cost was not worth mentioning.
Even the most troublesome factor, the success rate, was easily overcome by Shifeng.
Firstly, Shifeng was already an Advanced Forging Apprentice. His success rate of forging the Basic Mana Armor Kits was 20%. Including the Book of Forging and various other supporting tools, the success rate of forging the Basic Mana Armor Kits was close to 66%. Even if he failed, the cost would only be 70 Copper Coins.
To the rich Shifeng, there was no need for him to feel any heartache.
Walking up to the third floor of the Starstreak Trading Firm, Shifeng discovered that there was a long queue in the corridor. Meanwhile, the majority of the people in the queue were NPCs, while a small portion of them were players.
"Hey, don't you know about first come first serve?"
"You rude maniac, you actually dare to defy the rules set by Lady Anna?"
"Brother, aren't you too daring? Aren't you afraid that Goddess Anna will kick you out?"
The people in the queue, regardless of whether they were NPCs or players, all cast angry gazes at Shifeng. It was not that they hated the Shifeng that they had just met, but rather, they had waited a long time to meet Lady Anna. It would be a tragedy if the Shifeng's rudeness caused Miss Anna to chase them out in a fit of anger.
"Why are you guys queuing up here?" Shifeng asked curiously.
The Shifeng glanced at the number of people in the corridor, roughly estimating that there were more than two hundred people. This was not a small number. Moreover, when these people called Anna 'Lord' and 'Goddess' with faces full of admiration and respect, the Shifeng broke out in cold sweat.
"You don't even know this and you dare to come here?" Everyone rolled their eyes at the Shifeng as if they were looking at a newbie. His expression was full of disdain.
"Right now, the Starstreak Trading Firm is recruiting a large number of Forgers and Alchemists. If one is selected by the Starstreak Trading Firm to become a Forger or Alchemist, they will enjoy a private workshop. Moreover, they will be provided with an unlimited supply of materials. If one performs well, they can even obtain a private Research Room with a large number of materials for their research. In other words, as long as one becomes a Forger or Alchemist of the Starstreak Trading Firm, both money and fame will be within their reach."
Speaking up to this point, everyone sighed. They all envied those who could become Forgers and Alchemists of the Starstreak Trading Firm. However, when they saw a female player walk out of the office with a disappointed expression, everyone's expressions turned gloomy.
Due to the Starstreak Trading Firm's growing fame and popularity, more and more NPCs and players wanted to join the Starstreak Trading Firm. Hence, the difficulty of the Starstreak Trading Firm's selection process had also increased. It was no longer as easy as it had been in the beginning.
"How many people have been eliminated in a row already?"
"I think this is the seventh. The further one goes, the more difficult it becomes. Previously, one out of four or five people could be eliminated. Now, it's only one out of seven or eight people. I wonder what my chances will be when it's my turn?"
The people queuing behind the old man also began to grow anxious.
"Anna sure is strict." Shifeng could not help but smile bitterly.
Although there was nothing wrong with the selection process, NPCs and NPCs were different from NPCs. It was especially true for those who were timid and introverted. It was a little too extreme to reject a candidate after a single test.
This was especially true when the female player who had just walked out of the office was none other than Cream Cocoa, whom Shifeng had been trying to recruit. In the past, Cream Cocoa had been known as one of the Ten Great Master Forgers of the Starmoon Kingdom. She was a genius forger.
Shi Feng had never imagined that, after leaving the Assassin's Alliance, Cream Cocoa would be eliminated from the Starstreak Trading Firm.
Fortunately, he had made a trip here. Otherwise, he would have cried along with Cruel Sword in the future …
"Hah, I failed again. Where should I go next?" At this moment, the pure and pleasant Cream Cocoa wore a melancholic expression. Previously, due to her low production success rate, she had been kicked out of the Assassin's Alliance. Now that she had been eliminated by the Starstreak Trading Firm, she had no idea where she should go. "Am I really not suited to learn forging? Should I adventure and fight like other players? But I'm an idiot when it comes to sports. It's impossible for me to fight like others. "
"Hello, are you here to apply for a job at the Starstreak Trading Firm?" Shifeng stopped Cream Cocoa and asked.
"Mhm." Cream Cocoa glanced at Shifeng. At this moment, she was not in the mood to pay attention to an outsider. Hence, she nodded her head.
"Are you interested in taking another test?" Shifeng asked with a smile.
Cream Cocoa was shocked. She raised her head and stared at Shifeng, thinking that Shifeng was a member of the Starstreak Trading Firm. However, when she saw that Shifeng's clothes did not have the Starstreak Trading Firm's Emblem, she could not help but feel disappointed.
"Hahaha! Who do you think you are? The Guild Leader of the Starstreak Trading Firm? You can even let the eliminated person take another test? If you want to show off, you should at least look around. At the very least, you should get a Starstreak Trading Firm's Emblem, "a tall and charming female Cleric mocked as she sent a look of disdain towards Shifeng.
Shifeng did not get angry. Instead, he used Observing Eyes on this tall and beautiful Cleric.
[A Melancholy Smile] (Cleric) Level 10
Shifeng could not help but be stunned when he saw this name. The tall and beautiful female Cleric before him, A Melancholy Smile, was a future Master Forger of the Starmoon Kingdom. Although she was not as famous as Cream Cocoa, she was not.
Shi Feng had never imagined that the Starstreak Trading Firm would be so attractive. It had actually attracted two future Master Forgers.
"Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is …"
Just as Shifeng was about to introduce himself, he saw Anna walk out of the office to call for the next wave of people. In the end, when Anna saw Shifeng, she hurriedly walked towards Shifeng.
Everyone else held the mentality of watching a good show. They all looked at Shifeng with mocking gazes.
This time, he had lost a lot of face.
He actually dared to pretend to be an internal member of the Starstreak Trading Firm. Now that he had been caught red-handed, he would most likely be asked to leave immediately. He could forget about entering the third floor ever again.
