It sounded like the heroes were even stronger than Butch.
The man in black wasn't surprised—anyone who could defeat demons had to be powerful.
The man in black asked, "Haven't you thought about escaping?"
There was no one guard the ironworks, and with Butch's strength, he could definitely escape if he wanted to.
Why hadn't he tried?
Butch raised an eyebrow, "Escape? Why would I want to escape? Isn't it great here?"
The man in black was stunned.
Butch continued while showing satisfied expression, "Actually, since I've been here, my strength has increased a lot."
Using his dragon breath to raise the temperature of the furnace every day, and with the constant high temperatures feeding back into him, Butch had been leveling up regularly.
Even without signing a contract with Hanjun, he felt like he was gaining a lot.
Why would he want to escape? .net
Here, he could increase his strength just by breathing dragon breath, and he got free meals every day.
Butch was very content with his situation.
The man in black realized that relying on Butch to escape was impossible.
Butch was clearly satisfied with his life and didn't want to leave, so he'd have to figure something out on his own.
Butch didn't seem to care and asked him, "By the way, what's your name?"
The man in black replied, "Lambard Calowise."
Butch nodded, "Got it, Lambard. Alright, let's get to work, shall we?"
Lambard followed Butch, continuing to walk forward.
He noticed a chubby middle-aged man who was pushing a small cart while huffing and puffing and then collapsing halfway.
Lambard gave him an extra glance.
Butch noticed and explained, "He's just like us."
He just nodded his head like crazy.
Overnight, Ulon Town suddenly got a few more NPCs, making the players feel very curious.
The game didn't mention these NPC updates, so the players had to figure out for themselves what these NPCs were there for.
The most popular was Hallyne, the Alchemist.
Most players found out that they couldn't change into the Alchemist Class yet.
They could only take some small daily quests from him, earning alchemy items as rewards and increasing Hallyne's favorability.
Whenever they asked Hallyne how to become an Alchemist, he would just smile without saying a word, not giving them any answers.
This left the players puzzled.
Was this NPC just an ordinary Alchemist who couldn't take on apprentices?
Spicy Flavor Fairy helped analyze the situation and thought it was probably because their favorability level wasn't high enough yet.
Now the players understood.
It seemed like they needed to do daily quests first and raise their favorability before they could talk about how to change into the Alchemist Class.
Anyway, since Hallyne's quests also gave experience rewards, the players figured they could still do the daily quests even if they couldn't join the Class yet—So why not?
Next, there was the caravan that had arrived at the town square.
The players were excited, thinking it was about time the town got a shop.
Now they could finally get rid of the random items they had been carrying around and see what goods the visiting caravan had to offer.
Spicy Flavor Fairy stood in front of the merchant, looking at the items laid out on the ground.
He felt like this shop was probably part of a small event run by the game company.
All the items in the shop required gold coins to purchase.
Recently, they had only just started receiving money as quest rewards.
Even if they worked hard at the ironworks, the gold coins they earned weren't enough to buy many items in the shop.
At this point, he heard that the shop was also buying items.
