《Pedlar of Another World》Pedlar of Another World - Chapter 45

[Got something again, what a good luck.]
"Come On!" I fired the silver bullets shots accurately towards those Skeletal Soldiers widely scattered within the tunnel. It was a shocking sight at first because the tunnel is getting wide and now, it was about a road with four lanes width. There is plenty of Skeleton Soldiers, and most of them are similar to those I met before when I am in the intersection. It seems like they were group into a small group of five to ten.
A ten group skeletal soldiers are consisting of four Sword Wielding Skeleton, four Spear Wielding Skeleton, one Monk Staff Skeleton and a skeleton mage. The drops are all pretty similar, except that the mage actually drops the Broken Red Power Crystal instead of the lower or medium grade one. Looking at the Broken Crystals, I actually got a little feel of disappointment.
A broken Red Power Crystals mean it is a crystal with red hue but contains nothing within. It is like an empty Red Power Crystal that could be refined into its perfect condition without bothering about failure. But since it is empty, it could be used to contain the force of the Red Power Spring, which forms from the only location with an extremely dense amount of Red Power Source. A normal area with a small concentration of Red Power Crystals is called as a Vein. This is usually found in a cave.
A Deposit is used to label those Mines that is rich and abundant with resources like Red Power Crystals, and many more different materials, but the best of all would be the realms. Because within the realms, It is said that you will be able to see those Red Power Spring almost everywhere within the realm. But of course, a great profit always comes with a great risk.
Would a material mining attempt go well if you are actually trying to take a share of the benefits that was enjoyed by those ridiculously powerful monster such as Bronze Flame Dragon or the Steel Cyclops? You might need more than a team of ten to manage to barely survive, not to mention heavily injured when everyone returns.
Anyway, it is not a bother. All I would need is to get more material for myself. Since there is a Yellow Tunnel and also a Green Tunnel, most probably they are going to be Green Physical Crystal and Yellow Speed Crystal veins. This is great, as the three main crystal source had been provided to me by the cave itself. It says that my cave is dangerous, I wonder where is the dangerous part.

Sometimes, the part where the "The older the wiser" is always correct. I shouldn't ask where is the dangerous part, because a fully armoured soldier, not a skeleton one, but one with flesh, is standing before me with a katana. That katana look so damn sharp that it would easily slice me into two if I am not careful.
I retreated. The katana wielder walked towards me slowly, but his pace is much quicker than I thought. Luckily I didn't bring my goblin and Slime inside, else this might cost the two of them their lives. I continued to walk backwards until I heard a few "Kalak, kalak" sound. "Shit! There is a group of Skeletal Soldier behind me!"
I turned. Looking at the group of five, I quickly fired five random shots continuously. Four is hit, but only three falls. The remaining Monk Staff Soldier and Spear Soldier are walking towards me at a normal speed. I turned and looked at the Katana Wielder, but noticed that he was missing. "Shit! He already had his aim on me!" I quickly took one of the Temporary Deployment Shield and spread it when I crouched, and a heavy sound of "Tanggg!" is heard.
"F*cker! I was lucky to have this Temporary Deployment Shield made when I purchased the recipe!" ignoring the material dropped on the floor, I escaped. Running like there is no tomorrow, I quickly charge through at the side and escape without bothering about noticing the other groups around me. Of course, I am being chased, but escaping quickly is still possible, at least.
"Huh! Huh! Huh..." I looked at the intersection of the three tunnels. I stand at where I wanted to leave, but huh? Nothing happened. The chasing sound is still coming from the tunnel I came out. "Shit! Shit! Quickly transport me out from this cave!" I shouted softly, but nothing happened. "Yes! The ring! This cave is created by the ring!"
I looked at it.
"Entrance Gate reached, do you want to return?"
Yes
No
I answered yes, and it came out with another question.
"You will be charged with the rates of 50 Lower Grade Red Power Crystals for not being able to find an Escape Gate. Pay now?"

Yes
No
"What the hell?" I shouted, but to preserve my life, I got no choice but to choose yes. The moment I said yes, the sight around me is turned back into the room, seeing that two slave pets are still sleeping. "You two are sleeping so soundly while I just escape from death." I looked at the two and thinking about what I should do for myself, so I could improve my survival rates within this cave.
But one thing is weird about this.
I was in the Goblin Blacksmith previously when I did, so when did I come back, even appearing within my room with the two is sleeping? This is still a mystery. I took the Spike Dagger out, and take a look on its status before anything else.
Goblin Spike Dagger - Tribal Melee Weapon
Category: Goblin only Melee Weapon
Grade: Lower Grade 10
Durability: 20/20
Stats: 11 ATK / 3 ATK SPD / 1 STUN / 1 BLEED
Equipment Bonus:
Goblin Only - Double the Stats when used by a goblin.
Lower - the user will have a better spirit when fighting with this weapon.
Oh well, how could this be? I spend a total of 50 Custom Armour piece to form a pretty fine Tin Metal and temper them for a total of 12 times. It should achieve a better grade compare to this! But I did not feel too bothered by this results. Results only will get better as long I maintain such performance. I looked at the number of red crystals I've obtained from my cave.
Seven Medium Grade 10 Red Power Crystals, thirty-two Lower Grade 10 Red Power Crystals, and Twenty Broken Red Crystals. I refined the thirty lower grades one into six success, what a shock! With that thirteen medium grade crystals, I upgrade five of them to form an upper grade and keep the remaining eight.
Let's rest, for now, I will try the cave tomorrow again. I closed my eyes, and fall into a deep slumber.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning, I wake up and went straight towards the Goblin Blacksmith as I crafted another nine more of the similar Goblin Spike Dagger. It felt slightly weird because no matter I use exactly 50 to 60 armour to melt into a single metal, the results are always the same stats, with no difference between each dagger.
I decided to not be bothered by that, as I went over to the Merchant square to start trading. I put the ten Goblin Spike Dagger with a total of 60 of the Goblin Warrior Crystals for sale, the stall is quickly grabbed all the goblins shopping around, and begin to gathers at my stall. "Kyak! Good dagger, good!" a Green Goblin with a scar on its eyes speaks.
Very soon, with a price of 25 Goblin Beads each dagger, it was quickly sold out. The business coincidently helps in my crystals sales as well, where within three hours, everything was sold off. The moment it was all sold off, a new notification came into my ring and forced to come out. With the merchandise for the day is sold out, I closed the stall and ran to a secretive alley before I take a look at the ring.
"Why are you being so forceful?" I whisper to myself as I take a look on the notification.

Binary of Life and Death
Monsters, gold, chaos, glory, adventure, what more could attract two of the greatest players of all time to Sugarea, the most popular MMORPG of its time. But everyone makes errors, and unfortunate for these two brilliant players, they have made the grave mistake of not actually sleeping like normal humans and missed out on the very moment the new Dark Legion update would take effect. Or did they? They wake in what seems familiar yet not, but they soon realize their predicament. They are inside their game avatar's bodies! A half-Demon and a Dragonoid are now struggling with more than just power, these two men have to find their new purpose and calling in a completely different world. Will they concur it like ordinary land or will they enlighten the planet into equality? Do figures pull strings in the dark or is everything open to the public eye? Nothing is certain except the unknown, and nothing is ever as it seems... This is an Isekai story, as such, some parts may sound either cliché or similar to others, but I assure you, I tried to prevent that. To make it known, I took quite a lot of inspiration from the light novel/anime Overlord, but that doesn't mean it's a direct rip-off of it. You'll find there to be quite the amount of differences. Just a little heads up as well, you should expect irregular uploads, as it takes me a long time to write each chapter. I am currently trying for once every other week on Sundays around 10:00 A.M. Chapters are usually 7k words and up, with the longest (chapter 3) being 10.3k words. So, if you like to sit down and read a long chapter every two weeks at 10:00 A.M. EST on Sundays, then you can waste your time here! Small disclaimer: Profanity is far and few between, and mostly used by side characters, rarely the main character. When something with gore happens, I describe to the best of my ability, which will only get better the longer I write this... :) Small cuts between perspectives happen, and can hide what some characters do, which will be revealed in future chapters, I'm not that lazy... all the time... There are some parts that are long blocks of text, most, if not all, of them, are characters talking, but I try not to info dump. I know one of the tags says "Psychological", and for the most part, it is, but it's not as prominent as other stories, instead, it's more hidden and scattered, but I did try to make the pieces I did reveal all fit together. Cover art is bound to be changed when I have a good picture to use, so the Yin-Yang is a placeholder for now unless yall wanna gimme something to use *wink wink nudge nudge*. So yeah, please give it a try, as I have nothing better to do with my life, and I am banking solely off of a career in literature and am hoping that I can create a story that can actually be called something more than a child's imagination running wild. The eventual and inevitable end to the story won't be for a long while, at least till chapter 40 or so. I have thought long and hard about the message and themes at play, so I hope you, the reader (who has some amazing hair btw), can enjoy and partake on this adventure with me into my dark empty pit of an imagination.
