My potions are the cheapest in the Covenant of Truth. Any lower, and others might come after me with an axe,\" Keith said honestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the outside world, such perfect potions could fetch up to 3 million Sol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for his desire to build connections within the Covenant of Truth, he wouldn’t sell them so cheaply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it’s because most people outside were too poor to afford more than medium or high-quality potions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides a few orders a month, most of his perfect-quality potions were rarely sold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike Nash, who was meticulous about his foundation, most were content with high-quality potions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless someone could advance further than a Tier 8 War God, such impurities weren’t an issue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reading Keith’s expression, Nash saw he was telling the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine, 900,000 sol it is. I’ll take a thousand potions. Is that doable?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, but it’ll take time to concoct.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keith only had a few hundred potions, far short of Nash’s order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How long? I need them before the upcoming Cosmic Competition,\" Nash reminded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No problem, I can complete the order in a few days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s good. I’ll arrive in the Capital of the Solaris Domain in about 20 days. Can you have it ready by then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leave it to me!\" Keith patted his chest confidently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noticing Nash still browsing the potions displayed in the cabinets, Keith’s eyes lit up with excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Does the customer want anything else? I promise I would give you the cheapest price!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How much for this?\" Nash asked, pointing to the Tier 3 Soul Explosion Potions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reading its description, he saw it could amplify a Tier 3 Void General’s soul power up to nine times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As another perfect-quality potion, it had no side effects, allowing one to use it continuously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ve got a keen eye, customer! This one’s cheaper than the last. Normally, it’s 100,000 Sol, but if you buy in bulk, I can offer a discount!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want 5,000 potions. What’s the discount?\" Nash said after a moment’s thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each Tier 3 Soul Explosion Potion lasted about 30 minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five thousand potions would sustain him for over three months, even with continuous use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he didn’t plan to use them like a regular drink, but only for emergencies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Five thousand potions?\" Keith’s excitement grew at the prospect of another bulk order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since you’re buying so many, how about a 10% discount, same as the other potion?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good, good. Does the customer need anything else? I can also craft customize potions you know of.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, this is enough,\" Nash said, shaking his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though other potions caught his eye, he didn’t want to spend more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that so? Then let’s draft the contract...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, they drafted and signed an agreement, with Nash paying a 50% down payment of 1.124 billion Sol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing another chunk vanish from his account, Nash couldn’t help but sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need to quickly transfer the money we earned in the dark plane...\" Nash thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From his share, Nash only had 1.84 quadrillion Nova Credits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having spent about 1.284 quadrillion Nova Credits, Nash had only 556 trillion left from his share.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he spent a little more, it would dip into the share of others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he could use the credit line and repay it later, Nash would feel ashamed internally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wanting to maintain his prestige with the team, he couldn’t embezzle the money, even if he could pay it back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before, back in the shelter, he felt entitled to take what he needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, with the shares already divided, the money was no longer his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Embezzling funds that didn’t belong to him would disrupt his mental state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Planning to transfer the funds to Camilla temporarily, Nash said goodbye to Keith.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I look forward to your visit in the Capital of the Solaris Domain, dear customer! May you have a safe journey...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Continuing to wander around the Truth Market, Nash stumbled upon something else that caught his interest: Dark Technology.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As items usable in the Dark Plane, they were the pay-to-win route one could take in the Cosmic Competition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of buying some to disassemble and study, Nash browsed the selection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From large-scale weapons like the Spiral Behemoth to siege weapons, anti-air units, aquatic weapons, unmanned warning devices, high-yield bombs, and other specialized gear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buying one or two of each type to disassemble and research, Nash spent another billion Sol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing his money vanish faster and faster, Nash forced himself to stop while he was ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, like a demon whispering in his ear, Nash spotted a runic item he desperately needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A Tier 5 Runic Soul Enhancement Treasure?\" Calming his nerves, Nash approached the stall and asked for the price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How much is this one?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seven billion Sol.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What? Can you repeat that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most Tier 5 runic items were only worth about 1 to 2 billion Sol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even rare ones could only reach a value of 3 to 5 billion. But 7 billion? Nash thought he must have misheard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I said it’s 7 billion Sol,\" the stall owner repeated with a flat voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Nash’s reaction, the owner pegged him as another broke dreamer who couldn’t afford a decent runic item.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you make it cheaper?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, this is the final price. If you can’t afford it, leave!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Tier 5 runic weapons typically ranged from 1 to 5 billion Sol, soul-type runic treasures were different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only were they rarer and harder to obtain, but they were also in high demand among scientists to boost their abilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for the steep price he had set, it would’ve sold long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll buy it for 6 billion Sol,\" Nash offered, frowning at the owner’s dismissive attitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, that’s too low.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it? It’s already above the market price. If you can find someone to pay more, be my guest,\" Nash pressed, catching a flicker in the owner’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you add a bit more?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, this is my final offer. Six billion Sol. Take it or leave it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a little more?\" The stall owner wavered, feeling torn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Nash pointed out, 6 billion was already a steep price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most who saw the Soul Enhancement Treasure fled the moment they heard the cost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who lingered offered at most 5.5 billion Sol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, this is all I have,\" Nash said, stepping back as if ready to walk away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, as if snapping the final thread, the stall owner caved in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, alright, 6 billion it is. Just take it as my loss!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, glad you came to your senses...\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1108,"2026-06-06T08:03:14.165Z",1,"novelbin.me","4db8957e1b1989e622dc3076a27e8c42e521c01f0ef01d71c251d930bcdab615","i-can-program-my-body-chapter-291","i-can-program-my-body-chapter-289",665,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-can-program-my-body-cover.jpg"]
