Translator: 549690339

Clank-

Song Jian unwittingly kicked an empty can in the alley, emitting a slight sound. The sound was soft to mutant zombies, but was noticed by the goblin merchant ahead.

“All, human, it’s great to run into a human at this time. It seems the revered Goblin God is watching over his faithful followers. I will definitely offer five Doomsday Coins when 1 return… No, let’s make it three, I will definitely offer three Doomsday Coins to thank the Goblin God!” The goblin merchant, wearing a relieved smile like he had survived a disaster, shouted with excitement.

Just then, Song Jian received a system prompt;

System: LV15 Goblin Merchant – Canaan has issued you a rescue mission: Kill the mutant zombies besieging him and get him out of danger! Task Requirement: Kill the five mutant zombies besieging the Goblin Merchant, Count: 0/5; Task Reward: Greatly increase intimacy with the Goblin Merchant – Canaan, and receive a 9.99% discount on any purchase from him! Failure Penalty: Greatly decrease intimacy with Goblin Merchant – Canaan;

“Human… Ah, a respected God’s Beloved, please help, I can’t hold off these monsters any longer!” Canaan the goblin merchant stared at Song Jian, his eyes sparkling as he shouted loudly.

“9.99% off, can you be any more stingy?” Song Jian, somewhat helpless, raised his hand and directly chose to reject!

This goblin merchant was shouting loudly, but his vitality points seemed untouched. The fresh pork he pulled out from his bag seemed to have a strong attraction for the mutant zombies. Throwing it out, he was immediately beset by five mutant zombies, who abandoned their pursuit of him.

But the alley was too narrow – five mutant zombies blocked the path. Even with the goblin merchant’s small stature, there was no way of escaping.

“Won’t shed a tear until he sees the coffin, the little dwarf isn’t being genuine!” Song Jian sighed and stood still, quietly watching the five mutant zombies tearing at a piece of pork the size of a palm.

This small piece of pork couldn’t satisfy the five mutant zombies. They were always hungry and a piece of pork this size could not delay them for long. “Oh, God, you robbers, don’t come here, do not come here! Damn, alright, okay, I’ll give you another piece of meat, this is really the last piece, you’ve eaten eight pieces of my fresh pork, aren’t you full yet? Why are you so greedy? Goblin God, please punish these greedy monsters!” With trembling hands, Canaan pulled another piece of meat from his bag and threw it at the five mutant zombies;

Canaan was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief when the zombies started fighting over the meat and stopped paying attention to him. He began to retreat slowly.

This alley was a dead-end. Otherwise, the goblin merchant would have run away by now. Song Jian was not in a hurry and slowly followed the five zombies.

After Song Jian rejected the temporary task issued by Canaan, the green-skinned dwarf looked at Song Jian with surprise and muttered, “What’s going on? This God’s Beloved actually rejected my mission. Isn’t it strange that these guys usually jump at the sight of a mission like a rabid dog at pig shit?” Obviously, the goblin merchant Canaan was used to dealing with players. He knew their habits, preferred to issue missions with incredibly low rewards, and get players to do his bidding. Every time, he would trick players into running around in circles, taking complete advantage of them, which gave him great satisfaction.

In fact, those players who accepted the tasks issued by the goblin merchant Canaan were not stupid. Every time they entered the game and successfully completed a temporary mission, their main mission was upgraded and they received other rewards. Replenishing their vitality points faster is what all players seek – the faster their vitality is replenished, the less likely they are to die.

Moreover, the difficulty level of the missions issued by this goblin merchant was not high and could be easily completed. Therefore, what the players cared about was actually the evaluation of the main mission. As for the small rewards offered by the goblin merchant, few players even bothered about them.

However, Song Jian was not willing to take this loss. He even wished that the five mutant zombies would kill the goblin merchant. His gaze was always on the big bag carried by the goblin merchant.

“That bag couldn’t be full of meat, could it?” Song Jian wondered.

“Okay, okay, greedy human, you win. I will satisfy you, accept my mission. You will get the friendship of the Goblin Clan!” Canaan shouted.

System: LV15 Goblin Merchant – Canaan has issued you a rescue mission: Kill the mutant zombies besieging him and get him out of danger! Task Requirement: Kill the five mutant zombies besieging the Goblin Merchant, Count: 0/5; Task Reward: Unlock the reputation of the Goblin Clan, greatly increase intimacy with the Goblin Merchant – Canaan, and receive a 10% discount on any purchase from him! Failure Penalty: Your reputation with the Goblin Clan will decrease to ‘indifferent’, and your intimacy with the Goblin Merchant – Canaan will greatly decrease;

“Goblin Clan reputation?” Song Jian was taken aback: “Is it difficult to earn a reputation with this money-grubbing race? What’s the use? Also, a 10% discount is such a cliched supermarket promotion – don’t embarrass yourself, you stingy little green skin!”

The original price of something worth thirty being raised to three hundred and then offered at a 10% discount was a trick Song Jian was well aware of.

Reject!

Song Jian coldly looked at the goblin merchant Canaan. This green dwarf wasn’t going to part with the good stuff until the very last moment.

After all, when the five mutant zombies finished him off, Song Jian would still get his big bag. Perhaps he might get even more stuff. What was the hurry?

While Canaan the goblin merchant was retreating, throwing out meat as he went, he finally backed up against the wall at the end of the twenty-meter-long alley. Looking at the two-meter-high wall, Canaan’s face showed a look of despair.

“Damn it, I sold the last jumping device at a high price, otherwise…” Canaan said resentfully.

His hand froze when he reached back into the bag again, and a look of distress crossed his face.

Song Jian’s lips curved up slightly.. Out of meat now, huh!
