Chapter 1674: 1674
“About this quest…” Lu Li lowered his voice and asked Hachi Chan, “Can other people get it as well?”

“How would I know?” Hachi Chan thought for a moment before continuing, “Uncle Stack is not a great person . He is always scolding people, and his quests are always dirty and tiresome, so not many people ask him for quests . ”
“So what are you doing?” Lu Li asked curiously .
“I am just helping him watch the fire . He even gave me a plate of dried fruit . ”
This little servant girl seemed to be having a good time somehow .
“What about everyone else?” Lu Li continued to ask .
“Washing ores, adding coal, modelling clay… well, there are a lot of little tasks,” Hachi Chan said . She counted with her fingers and found that there were quite a few things .
“Okay, I get it . ” Lu Li was a little shocked .
People who had high charisma, like Hachi Chan, were given easy jobs like watching this fire . She was even given snacks while she did it . The other players were given dirty and tiresome jobs that probably didn’t even reward much . It was likely that most people wouldn’t take Stack’s quests .
“In that case, let’s just get some people to pretend to get the quest . Then we’ll let Three bro send some players to confuse the other clubs . ”
Lu Li didn’t want the other clubs to know his true intention .
It was hard to keep this kind of secret for a long time, but for every minute the secret was kept, the other clubs would remain stuck for longer .

Lu Li changed his equipment into a red Transmog set, the extremely flashy kind .
This was a level 60 Transmog set that he had recently found in the guild warehouse . The Transmog set had no special attributes, but it was so far departed from his ordinary clothing that he didn’t have to worry about being recognised .
Stack’s blacksmiths, who hadn’t paid attention to much in the past, couldn’t help but notice this today .
At least five or six people entered the blacksmith at the same time . The blacksmith was located in a relatively remote place, so it was obviously not normal for that to happen, especially since the people were all sneaking about .
“Can you guys be a bit more natural? Are you trying to let people know we are here?” Lu Li was the second person, and he reminded the others of their instructions .
“Ahem,” Azure Sea Breeze cleared his throat, then continued, “Uncle Blacksmith, I am an adventurer who participated in the battle against the insects . Is there anything I can do?”
“If you were fighting in the great war with that equipment, you must have just been fighting the old and weak ones . ”
Stack was just as offensive as they said . The others had clearly tried to be polite, but he did not respond in kind .
“Haha, there are male ones too . I don’t have much to do, and I don’t mind doing difficult work,” Azure Sea Breeze responded, not choosing to dwell on it .
In fact, it was probably normal for him . He was inseparable from Wandering, who when compared to the sharp-tongued blacksmith, was equally as offensive towards him . Azure Sea Breeze had already suffered under these personal attacks for the past 20 years .
“You are such an annoying waste of space; go smash the coal over there,” Stack said while pointing to a pile of coal in the corner .

No wonder why no one would ask him for quests; that was simply just too much .
“Alright . ”
Azure Sea Breeze picked up a hammer and struck a piece of coal .
Lu Li took a breath and stepped into the position where Azure Sea Breeze was .
“Respected master blacksmith . Hello, I am…”
“I don’t care who you are . Go away, and stop bothering me . What are you even looking at?” Stack roared as he waved his hammer around and almost knocked out Lu Li’s brain .
Charisma value was important when talking to a violent NPC like this one . Hachi Chan had an insane amount of Charisma and Azure Sea Breeze had a normal amount . Lu Li, on the other hand, had none, or even negative amounts of Charisma .
Lu Li wasn’t hit on the head because he wasn’t hostile, otherwise, he definitely would have been killed .
“Master, I am actually a blacksmith,” Lu Li said as he quickly took out his own blacksmithing hammer .
Cresso Hammer (Special): Strength +20, Forging Speed +30%, Forging Success Rate +20%, Grade +1, Lu Li exclusive, Durability 100/100 .
This hammer was an exquisite blacksmithing hammer, and it had extraordinary origins . It represented the centuries-old glory of human blacksmiths . Stack was a human blacksmith and he didn’t seem ignorant or illiterate, so he was immediately drawn to it .

“Where did you steal this hammer from?”
“Oh… I inherited it . See, I forged this equipment myself,” Lu Li said as he took out a Perfect grade weapon and handed it over .
“Well, it seems like you aren’t a bad young man . ”
Stack had a bad temper and was very proud, but he wasn’t an idiot . After Lu Li demonstrated his worth, he finally eased up .
Azure Sea Breeze, who was still breaking coal blocks, was almost in tears .
He had watched Lu Li get completely dismissed as a joke, but now the situation was completely reversed because he had taken out that hammer .
“Is there anything I can help you with?” Lu Li asked, immediately taking the opportunity to ask for a quest .
I’m tired, can you help me create these equipment?”
Stack threw a few Molds at Lu Li before grabbing a cask and having a drink at his work bench .
Compared to breaking coal blocks, Lu Li was happy that he had received a job that involved his technical skills .
The next few players also received quests, but their tasks were miserable . Most of the work was dirty, and someone was even thrown a rag and asked to clean the entire workbench .
The reward for the first quest was some ore .
Those who had followed Lu Li looked at each other . Even if it was a piece of Mithril ore, it was still of a very low quality . It was only worth a few dozen silver coins . No one wanted to keep working for this guy .
The second quest was also received smoothly, and Lu Li was tasked with selling some weapons at a high price .
This quest was actually very difficult because Stack’s asking price for the weapons was too high . These weapons were limited by their material and grades . Even if Lu Li used his exquisite forging hammer, it wouldn’t be worth that much .
Fortunately, Lu Li was quite rich . He casually called a person from the guild who bought all of the weapons on the spot .
The loss was just a few gold coins .
The quest reward was as usual, a level 60 Silver weapon . Lu Li had rarely seen an item like this . These were only dropped in the Wild or from Instance Dungeon mobs . Even if they fell, no one would pick it up .
Then, he asked for the third quest . Stack asked him to go to the mountain and help him dig up some ores of miscellaneous amounts .
These were then processed in a similar way to the second quest, by selling them to someone .
And just like that, Lu Li completed the third quest .
