Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest
Chapter 158 Finding Clues-----
We ended being forced to mount a giant bug. It was slightly creepy when I looked at the creature's giant jaws and eyes, but after sitting over its golden back and then beginning to move through the streets, I found the experience rather relaxing! I also found Silver, Mimy, Belle, and Loki, who had come rushing towards me the moment they felt I logged in. Summons and Tamed Pets stay in the game while you are offline, so it is usually necessary to find a place where you can leave them until you return.
This is why some serious players that usually explore the world constantly can't settle down with a house to put their summons/tamed monsters and have to go to the Market City where Players can teleport into and pay an expensive barn to leave them resting in there, which accumulates debt the more hours you leave them.
It makes it so taming/summoner classes are not so popular as they should really be due to this, and some people just decide to not pick summoning skills from their skill trees because of this reason as well, as it is quite money sinking until you reach mid to late game and you can afford the barn's prices.
Of course, that changes if you got an NPC friend and usually don't move around too much! I can just leave them with Acorn and he happily takes care of them. Alongside him, I got the independent Mushroom Brigade who are also summons and take care of my other summons and tamed pets for me. They are self sufficient and even constructed a house.
But every time I log in, they quickly rush to my side. Sometimes I simply summon them to my side, an ability that any tamer or summoner has to use MP to summon their tamed monsters or summons right in front of them. With that said, they were happy to see me, and were mounting on the enormous, four meters large beetle with ease. Just how much weight can these bugs carry? They're super strong!
"We are here."
It only took five minutes to reach the Engineers' place, it was a big workshop where we saw many of the golems used yesterday in the battle being repaired, some were quite destroyed, so they were practically rebuilding them from almost scratch with new parts.
However, the majority of the workers were all sitting around a table and enjoying food, as it was their lunch time. The moment we entered everybody immediately knew our faces and flew to our side.
"I-It is Lady Planta and her friends?"
"Our saviors!"
"Lady Planta, do you need something here?"
"Perhaps she wants to purchase a golem or some magic technology artifact? We'll give you a fifty percent discount then!"
"Hahaha… No, no, although I am now quite interested in buying a golem, I was actually wondering something…." I said timidly, overwhelmed by the fairies. Titan and Achlys were also dealing with them.
"You lot, calm down and listen!" Nieve immediately controlled the situation, her loud voice and bossy attitude were ideal for me, who often times can't muster the courage to tell things straight to people. "We are currently in need of your cooperation, gentlemen. Currently, we are trying to find clues about the one that sabotaged the golems. You did maintenance to them yesterday, right?"
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ "Oh right… yeah!"
"That's right… Whoever sabotaged them to not work automatically must have done it after us, right?"
"You guys are quick to catch in! Now, do you know any clues of anybody suspicious showing up?" Nieve wondered, crossing her arms. Her radiant blue jewel armor and her cute yet bossy appearance made the fairy here (who were mostly guys) skip a beat before her, they immediately obeyed her very word.
The people began to talk and discuss with one another for a while, until one of them finally spoke, after many agreed in that.
"We saw one person that was wondering around and asking a lot of questions, but it was a kid so we thought she was just curious about our job. She said she wanted to be an engineer when she grew up, so we were kind of obligated to show her the place around…" Sighed one of them.
"Oh? How did she looked like?" I wondered.
"She had pink wings, I remember that well…"
"I think she had some light pink hair as well? She was wearing a green and pink dress looking like a flower."
"Yeah, we don't know her name though, but she had a small and cute voice."
"Huh…" Nieve muttered, gritting her teeth as she suddenly began to gain some more clues. Her face suddenly darkened. "It can't be…"
"What's wrong? Any clues?" I asked.
"Err, not yet. I am not really sure yet… You guys, do you know where she went after this?" Asked Nieve.
"No, but she went straight to the market from here."
"Yeah, she was busy doing something…"
"I think she was trying to buy some tools for engineering, but we don't sell them here so she ended disappointed."
"Yeah, she probably went to buy them. There's only one shop that sells tools, maybe go check it out?"
The engineers seemed busy, so after we obtained our info, we quickly let them alone. Of course, I had already decided I would buy them something one of these days. Buying a golem for myself or some strange magic technology artifacts seemed pretty interesting. But for now, we quickly went to the Market District, where all sorts of shops were still open.
Thanks to the battle of yesterday were only a small part of the city was destroyed, the rest of the city and the people were able to quickly resume their works and begin to slowly rebuild things in the city.
"This should be it." Nieve pointed out at the Engineer Tools Shop, which was only one in the entire Kingdom.
When we got inside, a very old fairy greeted us. This was one of the few times I saw an old fairy with a beard, it looked like a very old grandpa. Even more, his wings were old and wrinkly, and he looked unable to fly anymore. He was sitting over a small chair while sipping some tea.
"Ah, welcome, welcome… Is there something you need?"
