Merchant Maracom opened the long and narrow black wooden box, and the power of lightning surging on the back of the bow quietly entered the longbow.
This longbow didn't look very conspicuous. Just like many other sharp bows, the metal body of the bow had a sharp edge. This was a short bow that could be used in close combat. The bronze body of the bow had dark magic lines, and there were three gem grooves on the back of the bow, with three magic crystals embedded in them.
So this was an epic weapon!
It wasn't as luxurious as Abel had imagined, and the craftsmanship wasn't that exquisite either. However, the entire bow was covered in magic patterns.
Surdak reached out and grabbed the 'Sky Strike' bow. The moment he touched it, an electric current passed through Surdak's arm and directly into his body. He only felt his entire left arm go numb.
He used a bit of strength to pick up this sharp bow.
He didn't think that this unassuming sharp bow would be much heavier than he had imagined.
"It's said that the body of this bow is forged from fine gold." Maracom eagerly introduced.
Surdak held the Sky Strike bow and thought for a bit before saying to Maracom, "Can I let my follower have a try with this bow?"
"Of course!" Maracom said confidently.
Immediately after, Surdak had Maracom's servant go to the barracks and call Samira over.
As soon as the half-elf archer entered the tent, her eyes were immediately attracted to the Sky Strike bow in Surdak's hands. She didn't say a word as she walked in front of Surdak. Natural magic patterns actually appeared on the right arm that always held the bow.
She held the Sky Strike bow with one hand, and it looked like she was holding it more easily than Surdak. Her eyes never left the bow.
Surdak stood by Samira's side, looking at the patterns on the back of the bow as he asked her, "What do you think of this bow?"
"It's very strong. I can feel the power it contains. Can I try an arrow?" Samira asked Surdak.
"Of course!" Surdak looked at Maracom and gave Samira a positive answer.
Samira didn't say anything else. Holding the Sky Strike Bow, he walked out of the tent, took out a fine steel arrow from the quiver at his waist, and placed it on the bowstring.
The moment she pulled back the bowstring, Samira's entire right arm actually became a lot thicker. Moreover, the countless electric snakes on the bow immediately came to life. Streaks of electric snakes crazily poured into the arrow, and even the tip of the arrow was continuously accumulating power.
The shadow of the Great Elf holding the golden bow appeared behind Samira. He loosed the bowstring, and the arrow shot out like a bolt of lightning.
With a swoosh, he flew out.
Samira aimed at the spire of a watchtower in the corner of the camp. The fine steel arrow steadily hit the circular pillar at the top of the tower. Half of the fine steel arrow sank deep into the pillar.
Just when Surdak felt that there wasn't anything special about this epic-tier bow of Sharpness, after three seconds of silence, a bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the sky. With a crackling sound, the top of the watchtower, which wasn't too big, actually exploded with a bang …
Along with the explosion, a single magicite on the back of the bow also shattered.
Without needing Samira to explain her understanding of archery, Surdak asked Maracom at the entrance of the tent.
"Then, let's talk about the value of this Sky Strike Bow …"
… …
If he could buy it with magicite gems, Surdak would be willing to pay the full price on the spot.
However, Maracom decided to set the price of the Sky Strike Bow at a thousand magicite gems. In the end, Surdak would have to help Maracom modify twenty Thunder Rhinos in order to buy this epic-tier weapon.
Samira held the bow and stood beside Surdak, not saying a word the entire time.
She didn't know what to say at all. She definitely couldn't bear to give up this Sharpness Bow that could release the power of lightning.
However, she felt that she wouldn't be able to repay so many magicite gems in her lifetime if she were to buy this Sharpness Bow.
For Surdak, the most troublesome part of this matter was that he couldn't use magicite gems to pay for it. The biggest problem now was that Surdak didn't have that many Ghostrune Ant's magicite gems.
He had to go out and hunt Ghostrune Ants in order to obtain enough magicite gems from their bodies.
In reality, not every Ghostrune Ant's magicite gems were complete. Moreover, the area of the magicite gems was too large. If they were damaged during battle, the entire magicite gems could be destroyed.
Lastly, these Ghostrune Ants were never alone. Moreover, they were the Ant Queen's personal guards. They would always cluster around the Ant Queen. Hunting them down wasn't an easy task.
However, no matter how difficult the matter was, Surdak still decided to accept it.
Merchant Maracom used a contract scroll to sign a contract with Surdak before handing the Sky Strike Bow to Surdak.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll leave with this bow?" Surdak teased Merchant Maracom as he signed the contract.
"Of course, I have confidence in you! The wealth you can create in Duodan is far more than just a Sky Strike Bow. Moreover, this is only the first step of our cooperation, "Maracom said confidently.
Hearing Maracom's words, Surdak immediately felt a surge of pride. He said, "That's right. The next step is to expand my territory here. We can't just focus on these Ghostrune Red Ants. My plan is to include the entire Invercargill Magical Beast Forest in the territory of the Grimm Empire. There will be many more deals we can make in the future."
Maracom placed a hand on his shoulder and bowed deeply to Suldak before saying, "I'm sorry, but I'm sorry.
"Then let's take this deal as a done deal. My Thunder Rhino caravan can't make it to Duodan at the moment to take away my luggage, but I have to return to Wilkes City in advance to take care of some matters. Please allow me to give you everything here, the tent, the furniture, the carpet, and the luggage. Take it as a small gift to you from this deal."
Maracom didn't wait for Surdak to refuse, and said, "You'll need to set up a large military tent when you're marching in the wilderness. Although this tent doesn't seem very suitable for now, it'll definitely work after some slight modifications."
Seeing Maracom's sincerity, Suldak thanked him and said, "Thank you very much. I'll bring these mageweath runes and magical weapons back to the encampment first. I'll tidy up these tents later."
… …
In fact, Maracom left more quickly than Surdak had imagined.
Suldak brought the mageweath and magical weapons back to the barracks, and registered them on the inventory list in the warehouse. When he came out of the warehouse, he heard his subordinates report that the merchant Malacom had left Duodan Town with a group of followers before dusk.
Hearing that Maracom had really left behind the luxurious tent and some supplies, Surdak sent a few veterans to take down the tent and put it away.
However, not long after Surdak gave the instructions, the veterans ran back with troubled expressions and reported to Surdak, "Commander, you asked us to put away the tent outside, but what about the women?"
"What woman?" Suldak asked in confusion. He didn't understand what they were talking about.
One of the veterans boldly gestured to Surdak before saying, "The ones in the tent … You have to settle them down before we can pack up the tent!"
Surdak finally reacted at this time, and said with a look of disbelief, "You mean when Maracom left, he didn't take his followers with him, and left them all to me?"
That veteran shook his head repeatedly, and said, "The male servants were all taken away, and only the female servants were left behind …"
"F * ck!" Surdak sat up from the chair in front of the desk, and covered his forehead with one hand. He walked a few rounds on the spot, and said with a headache, "What was this guy thinking? Alright, I got it! Leave the tent there for now, you guys go and do your own things. "
"Yes, Commander!" The veterans hurriedly left.
Suldak stood in the study room with a headache, thinking that perhaps he could find an inn in the town to let them stay there. After that, he could tear down the tent and let Maracom take those maidservants away the next time he came to Duodan Town …
At the same time, the garrison camp was once again in an uproar.
There was actually a set of elementary strength mageweath runes among the exchange rewards.
As soon as the merit exchange list was posted on the notice board at the entrance of the canteen, it immediately caused a huge uproar in the cavalry camp. The rewards this time were simply too attractive to the Warriors in the garrison camp.
A complete set of elementary strength mageweath runes was a lifetime dream for many Warriors who had undergone the first transition.
Selina rewrote the merit exchange list, and posted it at the entrance of the canteen before dinner.
Because the Sky Strike Bow was decided to be given to Samira, it did not appear on the list at all.
The first reward on the merit exchange list was the elementary strength mageweath rune, which required 100,000 merit points to redeem.
The second, third, and fourth rewards were three single-item mageweath breastplates.
The strength-type single-item mageweath breastplate was in second place, and only required 30,000 merit points to redeem.
The agility-type single-item mageweath rune was much cheaper, and only required 25,000 merit points.
Finally, the endurance single-item mageweath rune only required 20,000 merit points to redeem.
Surdak also listed the 50 magical weapons on the merit exchange list, and each of them required 5,000 merit points to redeem.
As for the low-level magic scrolls and magic rune boards, they were even cheaper, and could be redeemed for only 200 to 300 merit points.
Magical crystal gems were still sold for 700 merit points each.
Gold coins were sold for 100 merit points each.
