Chapter 51: Preparing to go out
After the merchant left, Robb began to work on his new toy: silk stockings!
After all, looking at Lillian in a maid costume without stockings, something was obviously missing.
Likewise, coincidentally, he bought a lot of silk from the dwarf merchant, so of course, he had to try to make silk stockings. Unfortunately, silk stockings are not "equipment that can be made by tailoring skills in the game," so Robb can't rub them out with his hands.
So he let Lillian try to make a pair of stockings out of silk instead. Although she made the general structure, the silk stockings she made are inelastic and cant define a woman's legs beautifully and tightly like the silk stockings of modern times, so she had to give up.
Virgo, people of Virgo, are always unhappy when something is imperfect.
"Oh!" Robb rolled over on his stool. "I feel like time has slowed."
Master, but I think time moves fast.
Robb said angrily, "when you feel happy, your time will move faster than others, and when you feel pain, your time will move slower than others."
"What master means is youre unhappy?" Lillian was starled again, showing a worried expression, "master has given me such a happy life, but you are not happy yourself. Lillian cant do this. Is there anything I can do for master?"
"I want to see you wear silk stockings!" Robb rolled off the stone stool and fell to the ground, then rolled all over the floor, acting like a child, "I don't care. Ill make silk stockings no matter what."
Lillian was startled when she saw that her master, who was usually too lazy to make noise like a maggot, dusty rolling on the ground, so she said, "Don't worry, master. I'll ask Mr. Mayor to see if there is any elastic cloth that can be used to make silk stockings. Wait a minute. I'll go right away."
Lillian ran out and returned after a while with a strange piece of white cloth in her hand, about the size of a palm. She went to Robb, who was too lazy to move on the floor and gently poked him with a finger. She whispered, "Master, I'm back."
You... Dont you keep saying that you just want to be lazy and stay still?
"Of course, I'm lazy about things I'm tired of playing with, but dressing up my maid is something I'm never tired of."
The feeling others get when looking at Robb suddenly changed, from the lazy guy who seemed like a slug to one that seemed radiant and sparkling, a sign that the grinding emperor was about to return.
In fact, he is a very diligent and persistent man compared to most people. Once he sets a goal, he will achieve it even if he has to manually repeat the action ten thousand times, but now, making a few silk stockings for his maid has become his new goal. A Virgo's spirit of never giving up until he achieves his goal burns in him again and restores his true character as the grinding emperor.
Im going out to get some stuff to prepare. Robb then hurried into the warehouse and picked up a pile of ingredients. He rubbed, and afterward, food was made. After all, food is a primary need.
He picked up a few more herbs and rubbed them together, and then a red and a blue antidote bottle were ready. Although his chance of injury and poisoning is near zero, no veteran player can go without meds.
He picked up a piece of wild boar skin, rubbed it, and finished a set of leather armor and boots.
Why choose leather? Because his level is too high and his stats are exceptional, there's nothing for him to be afraid of in this world, so he doesn't need to be equipped with high defense armor, so he only made a leather set with a useful enchantment called "movement speed." Leather boots made with good ingredients can be enchanted with "Movement Speed +30%" at most.
For a low-grade leather such as wild boar skin, its limit is only +10%, but as long as his boots, chest plate, leggings, hand guards, and helmet have +10% each, he can still gain a total of +50% movement speed. This attribute is widely used to explore mountains, so it's convenient.
Of course, pure leather gear lacks appeal, so I must use a costume addon.
Robb picked up the set of T-shirt and jeans he was wearing when he first crossed over. This is not a simple pair of T-shirt and jeans, but a set of RMB equipment bought by Krypton gold. Its biggest perk is that it does not use up an equipment slot. Instead, it occupies an extra slot called "exterior ornaments." Equipping this thing on top of it will cover up the appearance of your equipment and make you look like youre wearing a pair of T-shirt and jeans. Its especially used to cover ugly equipment.
Robb put on the T-shirt and jeans, and the leather gear with movement speed enchants disappeared before long. He's now back to how he first looked when he initially came to this world, with his blonde hair, T-shirt, and jeans.
