"Where's Zhao Chi?"

Lu Yi immediately asked about Zhao Chi.

Before Zhao Chi could speak, Wei Li ran over and said, "I'll get it. What do you want to drink, Zhao Chi?"

Zhao Chi said, "Fruit tea is fine for me too."

Lu Yi smiled and said, "Since it's all fruit tea, then Wei Li, you don't need to come over. I'll grab them all at once."

"Mm." Wei Li nodded, gave Zhao Chi a smile, then said to Su Qin, "Sister Su Qin, thanks for the rescue. If you hadn't arrived in time, my ghouls and frenzy ghouls would have all died at the werewolves' hands."

"It's nothing. You've already thanked me so many times — any more and it'll sound like you're treating me like a stranger."

Su Qin replied with a light laugh.

Xiang Yuan said, "Right, but speaking of which, Su Qin, how are your archers this strong now? Even with an elven bow and a fashion outfit, it shouldn't be this extreme, right? A single volley of arrow rain blew away over a thousand werewolves — we were all stunned at the time."

Geng Zhan said, "Damn, yeah. Captain Li's elven bow and female fashion outfit made me jealous just looking at them. I wish I could reset my race and pick elf too."

Li Xun and Wang Lie felt the same deeply and nodded together.

The fashion outfit and elven bow Su Qin used were both fine-quality, naturally fundamentally different from the standard-quality, or even rough-quality items mass-issued.

Besides, she also had Wind-Chasing Arrows and finger tabs, all fine-quality as well.

Under such circumstances, of course a single shot would be different.

At this moment, Lu Yi walked back.

She handed them to Su Qin and Zhao Chi.

The two thanked her and each took a sip.

Sweet and sour, delicious, and still warm.

Really not bad.

Through chatting with them, Zhao Chi also learned the situation of the battle at the time.

It really had been very dangerous then.

The most dangerous were those village-level lords like them — with few troops, they couldn't hold out long before the werewolves broke through.

If Su Qin hadn't arrived in time to rescue them, they really wouldn't be seeing today.

While they were chatting, Fu Yi suddenly cursed.

"Holy shit!"

Immediately after, he stood right up, knocking over the teacup in front of him.

Lu Yi quickly steadied the table.

Wei Li immediately stood the cup upright.

The crowd looked at Fu Yi with slight surprise.

Fu Yi said in disbelief, "Quick, look — a 10-silver Experience Fruit!"

"Huh?"

Cao Feng, who had been silently drinking tea, was stunned and immediately entered the system to check.

"Go, go, go! No time to check slowly — hurry and line up!"

Fu Yi darted out in a single stride.

Geng Zhan and Xiang Yuan instinctively followed him out.

Cao Feng also sprang up at this moment: "Holy shit, there's also 7-copper wheat grains — hurry, hurry!"

He usually loved to act cool.

It wasn't often that Cao Feng panicked like this.

Li Xun and Wang Lie also immediately ran out after Cao Feng.

Lu Yi said, "Quick, quick, quick — Sister Su Qin, Zhao Chi, you come too. Prices this low will definitely have tons of people grabbing them! Hurry!"

Wei Li also hurriedly said, "Let's go! Zhao Chi, Sister Su Qin, don't just stand there!"

Zhao Chi said, "You all go first. Hurry and line up — don't worry about us."

Wei Li glanced at them in surprise.

But there was no time to linger now either, so she also charged straight toward the trading point at the center of the training ground.

At this moment, more and more lords also noticed.

"Holy shit!"

"Huh? Am I seeing this right?"

"Are you stupid? Hurry up and go — everyone else is already charging over. What are you still standing here dumbfounded for?"

"Ah! Oh, right, right, right — hurry!"

"Quick, quick — let's go!"

A large number of lords charged toward the center.

Some lords nearby who had been chatting weren't watching the stock at all times, because there was simply no need.

Only after everyone had charged out did they turn their heads in astonishment.

But the situation on the ground was clearly off — they had no time to mind anything else and instinctively charged toward the trading point to line up.

Running and asking at the same time: "Hey, hey, hey — what's going on? Why are you running?"

"The stock refreshed."

"Huh? So what if it refreshed — is it worth running that fast? Is there a Gao Jie bloodline? A precious item? Wait, that's not right — can any of you even afford those?"

"Check it yourself. I don't have time to explain."

"Is it really worth… Holy shit, charge!!"

Nearly a thousand lords all charged over.

The orderly queue that had just been neat and orderly collapsed in an instant.

There were only ten trading points on site.

If they lined up in order to trade, it could still be done quickly.

After all, this temporary trading point only confirmed orders and took payment, so each lord needed at most a few minutes to finish.

If, like Zhao Chi, one had already picked out the goods in advance, it would take almost only one minute.

Now that the lords had swarmed over in a rush, the ten trading queues immediately turned into one big mess.

Quite a few people even got into disputes because of the crowding.

"Hey, damn it, stop pushing me!"

"Don't cut in line, get out of my way!"

"I was already lined up here, someone pushed me over."

"Damn, are you sick in the head? Don't you know how to line up? Get to the back!"

"Look around, where is there still a line? Everyone's squished together, you tell me where the line is?"

"Damn!"

It seemed that even lords from the same regiment would easily quarrel over some benefits.

It was only natural, human nature.

Nothing more to say.

The elven staff beside them were also stunned.

They stared blankly at the scene that had turned into total chaos, not knowing what had happened.

"What's going on?!"

"Is there an enemy invasion?"

"No, the lords all rushed toward the trading point."

"What are they doing? They were just taking it slow a moment ago, why are they going crazy now?"

"I don't know, don't worry about that, hurry and maintain order."

"Can we even maintain it? They're all lords, would they listen to us? Supervisor, what do we do?"

The work supervisor looked at the system and said: "I know the reason now. Jade Squadron sold 200,000 tons of wheat grain and 10 million experience fruits, and the price is very low."

"Really? No wonder…"

"Wow, the price really is low. No wonder they're fighting over it, everyone needs food, and these experience fruits… they're way too cheap too, aren't they? I wonder if someone on Jade Squadron's side mispriced them."

"It's fine, there's a secondary confirmation."

"Mm, stop talking, you guys hurry and maintain order."

"Got it!"
