Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Raging Torrent Handguard

After dealing with the trouble, Rogel walked towards the Nadewilo District, planning to visit Yas at the Mira Tavern to check on him.

However, he stopped when passing by a clinic.

It was Lady Sally’s clinic.

Compared to the sparse crowd yesterday, today’s clinic seemed to have more people.

After taking a glance, Rogel withdrew his gaze.

Upon arriving at Yas’s tavern.

Rogel did not find Yas, but Uncle Hijet was guarding the tavern.

After inquiring, Rogel learned that Yas had already returned to the Gelin.

It seemed that Rogel had just missed Yas.

Additionally, Uncle Hijet joyfully informed Rogel that Yas was preparing to participate in the fighting tournament!

This surprised Rogel a bit.

[This kid Yas finally got it.]

[I saw it long ago; his talent in fighting is exceptional. As long as he focuses his energy on it, he can definitely become the best fighter!]

[With his ability, taking the title of this tournament’s top fighter will be a piece of cake.]

[I never achieved this goal, so seeing Yas succeed is enough!]

[Captain Rogel, you’ve really found a gem, hahaha!]

Uncle Hijet laughed heartily and patted Rogel on the shoulder.

...

After returning to the Gelin, Rogel met Yas.

Yas had already prepared fifty pounds of meat for the blood mud giant and a beautifully selected stone.

After putting these things away, Yas also informed Rogel that he was about to participate in the fighting tournament.

[You go ahead, I’ll come over shortly.]

Yas nodded upon hearing this, mentioned it to Mira, and then left the Gelin.

After he left, Rogel went to the forge and took out a blueprint from his item inventory.

Raging Torrent Handguard.

The blueprint required a blacksmithing skill level of three to use.

After yesterday’s exploration, the blacksmithing skill had already reached level three, meeting the usage requirements.

[You have read the blueprint - Raging Torrent Handguard.]

[You can now forge the corresponding equipment.]

[Forging Target: Raging Torrent Handguard]

[Required Materials: Superior Leather ×1, High-Quality Iron Ingot ×1, Level 3 Marine Creature Skin ×1.]

[Success Chance: 45%.]

Rogel checked the forging requirements for the Raging Torrent Handguard.

Apart from superior leather and a high-quality iron ingot, the high-level marine creature skin could be freely chosen.

Moreover, the forging time required for the Raging Torrent Handguard wasn’t long.

It could be completed in about two to three hours.

Rogel decided to give it a try.

Focusing on the Dark Sea Hunter, Rogel began searching the surrounding marine creatures.

After a while, he found an unfortunate level four shark.

After its futile resistance, the unfortunate shark contributed its skin to Rogel.

Obtaining the skin from the Dark Sea Hunter, Rogel began forging.

[Auto forging... ]

[Forging failed.]

The game accelerated some time for Rogel automatically.

Rogel’s face turned dark as he immediately observed the forging process.

But he quickly regained his composure. He had already saved the game before completion.

Load the game!

[Auto forging... ]

[Forging succeeded, you obtained Raging Torrent Handguard ×1.]

[Blacksmithing skills experience increased.]

Rogel picked up the Raging Torrent Handguard and scrutinized it.

[Raging Torrent Handguard]

[Type: Equipment]

[Quality: Green]

[Defense: 4]

[Effect: Slightly increases the user’s attack speed.]

Not bad.

Rogel was relatively satisfied.

After all, the blueprint requirements for the Raging Torrent Handguard were not high, and the forging requirements were also low.

Under such conditions, being able to forge equipment with effects was already quite good.

"It seems that this should be ordinary equipment below the extraordinary level with effects."

Rogel mused.

The Raging Torrent Handguard was not considered extraordinary equipment, only premium among ordinary gear, but it had additional effects, albeit not strong ones.

Wearing a set of this excellent type of ordinary equipment should increase combat power by about twenty or thirty percent.

Gazing at the sky, the fighting tournament should almost be starting.

"Let’s go check it out."

After putting away the Raging Torrent Handguard, Rogel prepared to leave the Gelin for the district.

However, just as he disembarked, he saw a group of people quietly waiting for him.

They seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

The leader was one of the four gang leaders previously in Pilong’s casino.

Seeing Rogel off the ship, he quickly approached with a respectful expression.

[Lord Rogel, these are Pilong’s personal belongings, which we have transported for you.]

The gang leader pointed to a carriage behind him.

A pile of items was on it, bulging, and there seemed to be quite a bit of money.

[I have said that I won’t stay here long.]

This guy was smarter than Pilong, knowing how to curry favor with the strong, and his attitude was extremely proper.

The gang leader naturally understood the implication in Rogel’s words.

However, he remained respectful and obsequious.

[Regardless of how long you stay here, this property of Pilong’s rightfully belongs to you.]

He said with a smile.

But in his heart, he was muttering.

I also know you won’t stay long, but you killed Pilong; how could I dare to take his stuff?

If by any chance you’re displeased and think I took your things, and kill me for it, who would I justify it to?

It’s apparent that Rogel’s methods truly frightened them.

[Put it on the ship.]

Rogel nodded.

Upon hearing this, the gang leader breathed a sigh of relief.

Though he was greedy, he dared not touch such risky money.

[What’s your name again?]

Rogel casually inquired.

This guy was relatively smart and might be of use.

[My name is Kael, sir.]

Upon hearing Rogel’s inquiry, Kael automatically straightened his posture.

To be honest, as a gang leader, it had been a long time since he felt the presence of a superior.

Usually, only others were respectful to him.

But now it was different; the person before him was truly a big shot, and respecting him wasn’t disgraceful.

Rogel nodded, waved his hand to indicate they could leave.

[If you need anything, you can find me at the casino on East Pier Kusang Street.]

After respectfully leaving a message, Kael and his group of subordinates departed.

[Rogel, what are these people doing? What’s in the box?]

Lina, who was on the Gelin, naturally noticed these people moving things onto the ship and curiously inquired.

[Just open it and you’ll see.]

Rogel smiled.

Lina, curious, opened one of the boxes and was immediately dazzled by a pile of glittering gold coins.

[So much money!]
