Chapter 1329

Zhao Chi said: "Didn't you already say it? Phantom Squad captain, so you're trying to rob me?"

Shangguan Ting gave a cold laugh: "Rob you? Ha, you don't even qualify! Forget it, I won't bother arguing with you—just tell me what you want, I don't have time to waste."

Actually, Zhao Chi didn't have any specific target supplies in mind.

He had originally come to the exchange just to browse, and happened to spot this item, so he bought it.

If we're talking about high-value things, then only bloodlines.

"I want a Primal Bloodline."

"Primal Bloodline? Are you trying to decompose genes?"

"I want a Primal Bloodline, do you have one?" Zhao Chi didn't explain, and asked again.

Shangguan Ting said: "That's really a lion's mouth demanding, a Primal Bloodline is far more expensive than this Expansion Stone, you can't be thinking of trading just this Expansion Stone for a bloodline, right?"

"Of course not." Zhao Chi shook his head: "I can make up the price difference."

"Oh, I don't have one."

Zhao Chi: "……Then what were you saying?"

"I was just asking. Stop wasting words—1850 gold coins, deal or not? I'm giving you a full 150 gold coins extra, it'd take you 3 months to earn that much, right?"

"What I want isn't money. Since you have so many fashion items, do you have any fashion blueprints?"

Shangguan Ting tilted her chin up: "Blueprints? That's easy to talk about, what kind of blueprint do you want?"

"Um... something for women's fashion."

"I don't have one, but I can find it. Tell me what you need?"

Earlier Zhao Chi had bought a "Ladies' Underwear Super Improvement Manual" at the exchange, and today he bought a "Ladies' Underpants Super Improvement Manual."

But he still didn't have ordinary fashion blueprints or improvement manuals.

Although these two fashion items were somewhat private, right now he was asking for blueprints, not asking her to wear those two pieces, so it should be fine, right?

"I need blueprints and improvement manuals for ladies' outer garments, and blueprints and improvement manuals for ladies' undergarments."

"You... what did you just say?"

Shangguan Ting's eyes widened, and her mouth fell open.

Her expression was utterly shocked.

But in an instant, her expression turned to anger.

"You... you... from the very start your gaze has been lecherous, and now you say something like this, you're truly shameless... I..."

Zhao Chi sensed a surge of spiritual pressure rising.

This woman, wants to make a move?

Zhao Chi didn't feel there was anything offensive about what he'd said.

But seeing her like this, there really was nothing more to say.

Good thing he hadn't revealed his identity.

No more words—teleport.

The next moment, Zhao Chi teleported to Peach Blossom Village.

Phantom Squad captain, Shangguan Ting...

Zhao Chi sighed softly in his heart.

It seemed a squadron captain and a squadron captain really were different.

By comparison, Li Ruanyu was simply a perfect superior.

Whereas this Shangguan Ting was simply incomparable.

There were many lords within this Cliffside Town, so it wouldn't be that easy for her to find him.

But she should be able to obtain some information about him through the exchange.

After all, there was only one Racial Fashion Expansion Stone, and it was bought by him.

If she investigated using her status, she should be able to trace...

No matter, he hadn't done anything out of line.

Things were different now than before.

There were no longer any superior, noble-born aristocrats.

Zhao Chi wasn't too worried.

And even if she found him, he could go find Li Ruanyu.

Really now...

He hadn't even done his proper business yet.

He had originally been going to accept a mission, but now he was back at his territory, and would have to go out again.

Zhao Chi waited a moment, then returned to the Greater World.

He hailed a spirit-energy vehicle and headed straight for the Mission Hall.

The Mission Hall was also in the former No. 7 Academy.

The crowd here was no smaller than at the exchange.

And quite a few of them were teams.

People were clamoring, loudly discussing different missions.

This Mission Hall was very large, with over 20 windows stretching across, each window packed with people.

The seats behind had long been full.

Various sounds came from every direction.

This Mission Hall was about the same as the exchange.

You can pick up the mission list first.

Zhao Chi quickly got the list from a staff member.

The missions come in all kinds.

Some are posted privately.

Others are posted by families or squads.

Or simply posted officially by the World-Breaking Army.

Broadly speaking, there are three types.

1. Combat missions.

That is, hired combat.

Hiring other lords or combat-class residents to take part in the next battle.

Some are fixed-rate, paying a set amount of money.

No matter how heavy the losses, only the pre-agreed portion is paid.

If the performance is outstanding, the employer might pay extra, but that's very unreliable.

Some pay little money, but allow matched loot to be distributed.

Based on contribution value, one may take away loot such as supplies, captives, women, and so on.

And there's still money to be earned.

Some pay contribution value instead — these are the official hires from the World-Breaking Army.

2. Procurement missions.

Commissioning the purchase of a certain item, material, or blueprint.

The purchase price is usually a bit higher than the market rate.

You can also post missions to procure certain captives, such as virgin female succubi, female elves aged eighteen, and so on.

Or bulk procurement notices.

The procurement notices posted here are usually at market rate, or a bit below market rate.

At least a bit lower than the Exchange's.

Perhaps they want to use the large purchase volume to get some discount.

Zhao Chi saw quite a few grain procurement notices — later, if he had surplus, he could sell it to the market.

But he didn't see any for Experience Fruits.

3. Other missions.

These are quite a mixed bag.

Some are errands, such as delivering items or escorting personnel.
