Chapter 18: 018 Exploring the Item's Attributes
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Because Lu Wu discovered the new [Item Verification Function] of his golden finger, it completely changed his attitude and views towards this job.
Originally, Lu Wu was only working with the mentality of earning money, but now, he took this job as a chance to study and earn money at the same time!
Lu Wu was clear that in order to be a summoned beast trainer, his accumulated experience would be very important.
And the experiences that he needed were not just those from the books.
The situation that he was in now was one of the best ways for him to gain experience.
If he could remember the attributes of all the items in this store, he would have an amazing reserve of experience.
With dozens of items and hundreds of herbs here.
There were multiple combinations that he could come up with and there were so many things that he could do with these.
Although the results wouldn't show in such a short period of time, when he became a summoned beast trainer in the future, all these would become very useful.
With all these new thoughts in his head, Lu Wu started grinding.
However, Lu Wu quickly realised that it wasn't as easy as he had imagined.
Since you can't just simply throw an answer and guess each and everything.
Not to mention that each items could be verified for a limited number of times a day, even if you had a thousand chances to do so, failing multiple times at it was already a torture.
Therefore, Lu Wu faced it with a very serious attitude.
He had to look at the item very thoroughly and also come up with a guess that would be the most logical and precise.
This made it even more difficult.
However, there was something in this world known as the internet, something known as google.
Although he couldn't find everything online since most of the information relevant to summoners were hidden.
However, there were still little clues that could be found scattered all over the internet.
Plus, Lu Wu had been studying at the library for the past few nights which was why he had certain understandings that were relevant to summoned beasts items.
With all these put together, Lu Wu was able to guess more accurately, which made it much easier for him to obtain useful information about the items.
Therefore, Lu Wu was able to go through about four to five items on the first day itself.
Of course, all these were based on the fact that Lu Wu had the golden finger.
If he didn't have his golden finger, trying to learn all these attributes and gaining more experience about it through this method would be a total waste of time!
Also, Li Kai now thinks that Lu Wu was being a clown.
Li Kai, who went to bed, had already woken up in the afternoon. However, he didn't go into the store. Instead, he turned on the security cameras in the store to see what Lu Wu was doing.
Then, he saw Lu Wu studying.
In the beginning, Li Kai had no idea what Lu Wu was trying to do.
He saw Lu Wu picking up an item and was looking at it for a long time. Then, he would search for something on his phone and start writing in his notebook. Lu Wu did this several times, which confused Li Kai.
It was only when Li Kai overheard Lu Wu mumbling about the item's attributes that he realised what Lu Wu was doing.
Then, Li Kai couldn't help but shake his head.
"Did that kid really think that this is going to work? If he continues this way, he wouldn't be able to achieve anything until the day he dies! What a waste of time!"
After that, Li Kai turned off the security camera.
He wasn't going to stop Lu Wu, and he had no plans of doing so as well.
He thought that Lu Wu was just a three-minute passionate person.
Lu Wu was just acting this way because he got too excited to be working at the store. Lu Wu must have thought that he finally stepped into the circle of being a professional summoner and was trying to get Li Kai's attention.
When it came to these situations, the best way to deal with it was just to ignore it.
There was a limit to a person's passion. If he continued to work so passionately without getting the result that he wants, Lu Wu would definitely give up after a day or two when he no longer has the patience.
If he talked to Lu wu about it, it may even encourage him and Lu Wu may even start annoying him.
Well, Li Kai's worries were right.
In fact, the reason why Lu Wu was doing it so openly was because he indeed wanted to show off his talents and skills. Lu Wu did do it to catch Li Kai's attention.
Lu Wu clearly knew that it wasn't possible for an ordinary person to open such a store.
Not only would this person have an extremely powerful background, Lu Wu was sure that Li Kai was at least an expert at things related to summoned beasts.
Lu Wu even suspected that Li Kai was a summoned beast trainer.
With this assumption, Lu Wu really wanted to showcase his talent.
Since this was the only way that he could get one step closer to being a summoned beast trainer.
According to the script in Lu Wu's mind.
As long as he guessed them correctly, Lu Wu would be able to show his talent. Once Li Kai noticed how gifted he was, Li Kai would definitely want him as his apprentice.
Then, that would be the start of Lu Wu's career as a summoned beast trainer.
Not only would he get to learn from a trainer himself, but he could also even learn more about summoned beasts. He may even get the chance to solve the problem with getting Skeleton's training ingredients. His dream of being a summoned beast trainer was about to come true!
However, the reality proved that this was just all in Lu Wu's head!
Li Kai was only aware of his crazy behavior on the first day. Then, for the next few days, Li Kai no longer paid attention to Lu Wu.
Although Li Kai did notice that Lu Wu had way too much patience and passion for it and did not give up like he had expected.
After a few days, he even noticed that Lu Wu's efforts were actually working.
But, so what?
Li Kai still didn't bother talking to Lu Wu about this!
Li Kai was someone who was cold and liked being alone. He didn't like talking to people unnecessarily.
It's true that Lu Wu managed to capture his attention, especially for the past few days, but he still didn't want to talk to Lu Wu about this.
He didn't want to trouble himself.
Therefore, he decided that it would be best for them to remain in this healthy work relationship.
However, Li Kai's action really upset Lu Wu.
Lu Wu felt like he got the wrong script!
He even felt that if there was actually a god who was writing his script, that fella must be a retard!
Couldn't Li Kai see that he was extremely talented?!
Well, Lu Wu didn't hate Li Kai for this. He just felt that Li Kai must be blind or something.
But he was the one who had expectations, and it didn't necessarily mean that the other party had to live up to them.
Plus, Lu Wu already felt much better after thinking about it over the past few days. There was another thing that he learned from the past few days.
"Other than that silly girl, no one would be kind to you for no apparent reasons. If you want something from others, you should be able to give something back. Fair trade is what keeps the earth spinning!"
After coming to terms with it, Lu Wu no longer felt anxious about his current situation.
He stopped wanting to showcase his talents to Li Kai who was 'blind' and no longer hoped for the opportunity to fall from the sky.
Instead, he should put in the effort and work hard in order to get to where he wanted.
