Chapter 1210 - Modified Advanced Transport Carriage

"He's done already?"

Shi Feng grew ecstatic when he heard Melancholic Smile's report .

Advanced Transport Carriages were not that easy to construct . Even with all the required materials, it was possible that certain parts wouldn't meet the system's standards, which would result in failure during the final assembly . These faulty parts would need to be remade, and the carriage would have to be reassembled . These various processes were extremely taxing in both time and energy .

However, as long as the Advanced Transport Carriages were complete, they would massively assist Stone Forest Town's development .

Stone Forest Town's reconstruction was already complete . However, the Transport Carriages, the key to unlocking the Intermediate Town's true potential, were still missing .

Although it was possible to rent ordinary carriages from NPCs, those carriages could hold up to four players at a time . Moreover, the rental price was relatively high . The amount of time one could save with these carriages was also minimal as their speed was on par with Common Mounts . If ordinary players were asked to spend 40 Copper just to save five hours, they would likely choose to walk the entire way . Hence, for the moment, Shi Feng had set the fee for using the rented carriages at 30 Copper per player . With this, he may not make a profit, but he wouldn't lose money, either .

If they could have a fleet of Advanced Transport Carriages now, they could solve many problems . First, the speed of an Advanced Transport Carriage was on par with a Mysterious-Iron Mount . Second, it was capable of carrying up to twenty players at a time . With these two factors, they would make quite an income by just offering players transportation . Furthermore, Advance Transport Carriages could carry cargo .





An Advanced Transport Carriage could carry up to 60 non-bag space items .

In player towns, a wandering NPC merchant's stock depended on the town's transportation services . This was because the majority of a wandering merchant's goods were non-bag space items .

The more non-bag space items a town could transport, the more rare items wandering merchants would bring to said town . Moreover, more wandering merchants would visit . This was considered a hidden benefit .

This hidden benefit had only been discovered after many Guilds had established their own Advanced Towns or Basic Cities in the past . When the news spread, the various Guilds regretted not establishing a transportation system early on . Otherwise, they would've attracted far more players with the wandering NPC merchants .

Moreover, as a town or city attracted more wandering merchants, it would unlock another hidden benefit—a Mystery Shop!

The Mystery Shop mainly sold Mystery Treasure Chests . As its name suggested, one had a random chance of obtaining all sorts of items from the Mystery Treasure Chest such as potions, weapons, equipment, Magic Scrolls, food, beverages, and far more . If one were lucky, they could even obtain Dark-Gold Weapons and Equipment . It had been very popular among players . However, while the Mystery Shop had an unlimited number of Mystery Treasure Chests in stock, players could only purchase five Mystery Treasure Chests per day at most . Each treasure chest sold for two Silver Coins .

After players purchased a certain number of Mystery Treasure Chests from the Mystery Shop, they could become members of the shop . By then, players could enter the shop's second floor, competing for a limited number of up-to-date and rare weapons, equipment, and tools . Even the most inferior among these items was Secret-Silver rank, and players had often found Fine-Gold items . While very rare, Dark-Gold items would also appear from time to time .

After reaching Level 50, it would become very difficult to obtain high-quality weapons and equipment . Obtaining Level 50-plus Secret-Silver Equipment would be as challenging as finding current Dark-Gold Equipment . Hence, getting to compete for up-to-date Fine-Gold Weapons and Equipment every day was a huge opportunity for most players .





This opportunity did not require players to have superb combat techniques . As long as one had enough Coins, they could purchase the items they desired .

Players had swarmed to any town or city with Mystery Shop . Back then, even merchant players had used these Mystery Shops to make a fortune, traveling to the various towns and cities to compete for these items, then reselling them elsewhere for a profit . After all, players rarely sold their Level 50-plus Fine-Gold Weapons and Equipment .

Upon arriving at the Candlelight Trading Firm, Shi Feng hurried to Burning Abyss's workshop .

"Guild Leader, what do you think of this Advanced Transport Carriage?" Melancholic Smile asked as she gestured to the exquisite carriage in the workshop's center .

Unlike the horse carriages gliding down cities' streets, the Advanced Transport Carriage was not pulled by a horse . Rather, it resembled the Bronze Engineering Locomotive, a completely mechanized mode of transportation . Players could operate it simply by purchasing fuel from NPC shops . It was similar to taming Mounts . Living Mounts needed to be fed during fixed times . The higher a Mount's rank was, the more expensive its food needed to be .

"Is this a modified version?" After examining the Transport Carriage, he noticed that it was slightly different from the original design .

"Mhm, Burning is an engineering genius . He modified it slightly using his research from Titan City, enhancing its performance slightly," Melancholic Smile explained .

[Advanced Transport Carriage] (Common Rank)
A creation of Master Engineer Burning Abyss .
Maximum capacity: 20 people
Durability 200/200
Item storage when liberated: 8,000 bag space slots and 60 non-bag space slots .

Additional Skill-
Mana Combustion: Increase Movement Speed by 15% by absorbing the Mana of player . Each minute consumes 1,500 Mana . No Cooldown .

-
"Amazing!" Shi Feng said, surprised .

He had seen the Mana Combustion Skill before . However, this Skill generally only manifested on Bronze rank or higher mechanical carriages or Mounts . This was his first time seeing the Skill on a Common Advanced Horse Carriage .

With this 15% Movement Speed increase, the Transport Carriage would rival Secret-Silver Mounts .

However, when Shi Feng looked at this Advanced Transport Carriage, he felt a little helpless .

With the materials they had at hand, they could produce at most two Advanced Transport Carriages . If they could mass-produce the Transport Carriage, the Mystery Shop might open in Stone Forest Town before it even became an Advanced Town .

It would be great if we could find some replacement materials . Shi Feng thought .

Green Ebony was even rarer than Diamond Wood . Moreover, it could only be found in extremely dangerous maps . Procuring a large quantity would be very difficult .

Right! Green Ebony only grows where normal Ebony grows, and only a small minority of Ebony in high Mana density environments grow into the tougher, harder, and more Mana-conductive Green Ebony . What if I use the Philosopher's Stone's Elemental Strengthening on normal Ebony? Shi Feng suddenly remembered the Philosopher's Stone .

Aside from concocting potions, alchemy could convert and strengthen items .

Green Ebony was born from Ebony . It was definitely worth giving the Philosopher's Stone a try .

Ebony was not a particularly rare material in God's Domain . One could even say that it was a very common type of wood . If he could transform Ebony into Green Ebony, he could save himself plenty of trouble .

Mass-producing the Advanced Transport Carriage would no longer be a challenge .

Thinking up to this point, Shi Feng had Melancholic Smile retrieve some Ebony from the Candlelight Trading Firm's warehouse while he retrieved the Philosopher's Stone from his Personal Warehouse .
