Chapter 227: Chapter 227: Don’t Leave

Translator: 549690339

The fresh pork from Goblin merchant Canaan’s bag was all used up. It was unlikely it would carry fresh pork in its bag forever. The few pieces thrown out may have been its own rations. After all, he was a goblin merchant, not a goblin pork merchant.

“Ah, don’t hit me, don’t bite me, don’t eat me, my meat tastes terrible, you hateful monsters!”

Without the attraction of fresh pork, five mutant zombies shambled towards the goblin merchant, constantly attacking it. What puzzled Song Jian was this Goblin merchant seemed to have no power to fight back. He seemed to have no combat power, only knowing how to dodge and wave his arms randomly. “What a waste of your level fifteen!” Song Jian shook his head speechlessly. This goblin merchant was five levels higher than these monsters. If a level fifteen player was similarly bullied by five level ten ordinary mutant zombies, they probably wouldn’t be able to lift their heads.

What surprised Song Jian even more was the goblin merchant’s defense or evasion attributes were extremely high. The zombies’ attacks could only forcibly reduce its Vitality Points by one each time, sometimes even resulting in a “MISS”.

Clearly, these five mutant zombies could not break the defense of the goblin merchant.

“Damn it, this human is too cunning!” The goblin merchant warded off the mutant zombies’ attacks while staring at Song Jian, who stood not far away with his arms folded.

“Human, my bag is a companion equipment. Once I die, the bag and all the items in it will be completely destroyed by the power of time and space!” The goblin merchant shouted.

“Companion equipment?” Song Jian’s expression changed; this was the first time he had heard of this type of equipment.

“What is a companion equipment?” Song Jian curiously asked.

“Human, 1 would like to explain to you what a companion equipment is, but now, is this really the right time?” Goblin merchant Canaan shouted in anger.

“I think it’s quite suitable. You have so much vitality, you couldn’t die anytime soon. Why not we have a chat? Maybe if we enjoy our conversation, 1 may help you kill these five monsters?” Song Jian shrugged and said casually.

“Companion Equipment, that is the Growth Equipment spoken in your God’s devotees’ terms. Once obtained, it is bound to the owner’s bloodline, growing with the enhancement of the owners’ level, it is a piece of equipment that can grow with people. Once the owner dies, this equipment will also shatter, sharing life and death with the owner!” Goblin merchant Canaan didn’t hesitate and quickly explained.

“Such equipment also has a cap, which is the ceiling mentioned in your God’s devotees’ terms, and normal growth equipment can only grow to the silver or gold quality at most, and that’s the limit. Only a few companion equipment can grow with the owner for a lifetime, reaching the highest epic level, or even legendary level. Some people even say that there are companion equipment that grows into artifacts, but no one has ever seen it! Now I have told you all I know, can you please take action?”

Goblin merchant Canaan held his head to block the attack of the mutant zombie and shouted.

“So that’s how it is. Thank you for the explanation. But if you want me to save you, you have got to bleed money. You have to at least give me a piece of equipment.” Song Jian said with a laugh.

“Blackmail! This is outright blackmail, you, you…” Goblin Merchant Canaan roared angrily, his eyes filled with a hateful look.

Trying to get a piece of equipment from it for free was like cutting a piece of meat from its body, which was something it could not tolerate.

“Dream on, human, this is impossible. We, the Goblin clan, have never given anything for free!” Goblin merchant Canaan yelled.

“Is that so? Then I’ll wait a little longer…” Song Jian said indifferently.

Not only did the mutant zombies scratch with their claws, but they also gnawed at their targets. In no time at all, billowing tooth marks appeared on the goblin merchant’s arms.

After ten minutes, the goblin merchant’s vitality points had dropped by more than a hundred, but it still clenched its teeth in resistance, staring at Song Jian with eyes full of anger.

Song Jian was nonchalant. The zombies’ hate values were firmly locked onto the goblin merchant due to the fresh pork. Even if Song Jian walked up to them, they probably wouldn’t attack him.

Half an hour later, the goblin merchant’s vitality points had dropped by more than three hundred, nearly halving them. At this point, a touch of panic appeared on its face.

It seemed to want to plead for mercy. It opened its mouth, but in the end, it didn’t make any sound; it persevered with gritted teeth.

55%, 50%, 40%, 30%…

After more than an hour, Song Jian was getting a bit impatient. Even when hunting monsters, he could have killed a few dozen level ten monsters in such a long time. The spoils of war might even be more than this task reward. “Hmph, you’re still not coming to your senses!” Seeing the goblin merchant’s vitality points fall below 30%, Song Jian coldly uttered a sentence then turned to leave.

Seeing Song Jian actually turned and left, the goblin merchant started panicking.

“Don’t go, don’t go, and God’s devotee, please don’t leave. Save me, I’ll give you a handsome reward. We, the Goblin clan, keep our promises!” The Goblin merchant Canaan started begging.

A smile appeared on Song Jian’s face. He waited for over an hour; even though he was a bit impatient he wouldn’t give up easily. The reason he turned around and pretended to leave was merely to put some mental pressure on this little green goblin.

“Are these your words?” Song Jian turned around, a serious look on his face as he stared at the goblin merchant and said, “1 will pick an item at random from your bag. If you don’t agree, then forget it!”

“What, pick one item at will?” The Goblin merchant’s face changed and he began to hesitate. But seeing Song Jian turning to leave, he quickly agreed, “Okay, okay, no problem. You can pick one item from my bag as your reward!”
