"Sigh, after switching maps, even the currency needs to be exchanged again... what a hassle." Big Boss sighed and walked toward the shops behind the Fountain.

However, he didn't feel any pressing urgency about not having enough money to spend.

After all, inside his Underwear, he had several hundred drops of Dragon Demon tears.

Mhm, that is to say, Demigod tears.

He had just taken a rough look; even in this Place of the Law of Salvation, Demigods were not lives seen just anywhere.

Most people's Dragon's Strength fluctuated around Tenth Rank.

However, on those Savior Goddesses, many possessed the Radiance of a Demigod.

Compared to them, his Lilith Cat felt not enough to look at.

Thinking this, he glanced at the stupid cat without leaving a trace.

"Hmph! You're thinking bad things again!" Lilith Cat narrowed her eyes.

"I'm not."

"You are!" A "#" emerged atop Lilith's head; she pounced onto Big Boss's head and bit down hard: "You think this Goddess is weak, can't compare to other Goddesses!"

"That's what you said yourself..."

"Aaaaaah!!! You infuriate me!!! I'm telling you, your Salvation Task this time was judged as SSS Grade or above!" Lilith was incomparably furious, wildly throwing Cat Cat Fists: "Originally, as long as you followed the proper steps and successfully Inherited the Abyss Law, I would have long since passed the probationary test and been crowned a Demigod!"

"Damn it, right now I'm TM worried about whether I can successfully become a full member!"

"Hehe." Big Boss smiled without it reaching his eyes: "Speaking of which, since many Goddesses inside the Salvation Capital have reached Demigod Level, why don't they go save worlds themselves? Hiss, did I discover a Setting BUG?"

"Hmph, your observation is quite sharp, actually the reason is simple." Lilith Cat shook her head: "This is a rule of our Savior Law; no matter how strong, they must rely on the chosen Savior to fight."

"After all, the Savior Law is a Gentle law."

"The violence we lack can only be made up for by those Saviors."

"So that's how it is, then what about your mother Silili?" Big Boss was Doubtful: "As a True God, she should have combat capability, right?"

"I don't know about that; actually she's not my birth mother, but my adoptive mother, and I don't treat her as my mom either, usually just call her Silili at most." Lilith Shrugged: "Hmph, I've never seen her make a move either, let alone seen her Savior."

"She's an NPC, you're the GM, how can you treat her as a mother? But that's the Setting, huh..." Big Boss raised an eyebrow.

Looks like this game, to avoid harmony risks, deliberately set the GM's Identity and Silili's Identity as having no blood relation.

Speaking of which, Silili should be a capturable character.

Big Boss Raised Head, Recalled his first meeting with that G-rank Strong One, and unconsciously smacked his lips twice.

Mhm, Silili, an incomparably Holy big vehicle.

If driven, it should be quite fuel-consuming.

"Ah! I felt it, you're thinking dirty things again!" Lilith Cat's eyes turned Sharp.

"I'm not."

"You are!"

"I'm not!"

"You TM... what about your Downhead Dragon Girl, your Tata, your Regina, your Vivian, your Anna, your Setsuna?" The Ragdoll Cat clenched her Claws.

And, what about me? Got hard,

The Catgirl's Tail got hard.

"Lilith, let me Remind you one thing." Big Boss extended a Finger: "I'm playing a game, not dating; Strength forever ranks above Cute and Sexy."

"You TM... aaaaaah, I'll Bite you to Death!!!"

Lilith opened her Mouth again and bit onto Big Boss's head.

Big Boss ignored her too, shaking his head as he walked into the shop; he planned to Hurry and sell the Dragon Demon tears in his hand.

And behind the two of them, the few people who had just been sharing True God intel also laughed with Schadenfreude.

"I say, everyone, that kid looks like a Newcomer, right?"

"Mhm, should be; the Goddess beside him seems to be in the probation period... but if she hasn't reached Demigod, then the world that kid Saved is probably C-rank, or D-rank?"

"About right; in that case, should we remind him about Old John?" A gender-indeterminate creature wearing a frog skin suit said: "That's a famously notorious profiteer, tsk tsk tsk."

"Heh, why remind?" Another Savior Shrugged: "Among those present, which one wasn't tricked by Old John during their novice period?"

"This is the necessary path for Newcomers!"

"Right, just let Old John give him a lesson; anyway, a Newcomer doesn't have much money on them, can't lose much."

"Hope he can soon transform from a Newcomer into a veteran, hahaha!"

"Alright, forget him, let's continue; where were we? Oh, that True God Adult's Descent, let me tell you, that awesome guy, when that Adult appeared, not only were there Heavenly Phenomena, there was even Sanskrit Chant from who knows which world, the style was hella high!"

"Holy shit, that awesome?"

"Awesome!" x3 "Awesome awesome!" x15 Just like that, Big Boss, whom no one cared about anymore, slowly walked into the shop interior.

The moment he entered the room, he saw a girl wearing Knight armor and a Hood arguing with the shop Boss about something.

Seeing Big Boss enter, that Boss wearing Single-frame Glasses with white hair raised his head and revealed a Kindly Smile: "Customer, please look around freely; I'll finish this deal first."

"Mhm." Big Boss nodded noncommittally, his gaze wandering randomly around the room.

This shop's furnishings were very like Diagon Alley in Harry Potter, filled with that kind of British intricacy and Elegance.

All kinds of Weapons hung on the two side Walls, from staffs and Wands to Greatswords and Shields, everything one could expect, and the lowest Rank was at least Orange Epic, with quite a few Golden Legends.

This was something he had never seen in shops on the Tianming Continent.

But thinking about it, this place was originally a map only unlockable after Clearing the game, so it made perfect sense again.

It's an online game, after all; only after Clearing does it count as the real start.

And below the Walls, several glass display cases oriented toward items were placed; inside the cases were piled various rare materials and consumables, and like the Weapons, the lowest Rank was also Epic.

He gave a rough look; these high-quality consumables were basically all related to "Rebirth" and "Full State Recovery"; for him, their use wasn't too great.

Rather, inside the display case under the elbow of that customer wearing Knight armor, there was an old-looking Pocket Watch, but Law Radiance swirled above it.

Big Boss blinked, looking at the label above.

【Time Traveler's Lost Pocket Watch, Price: 350,000 Gold Jialong】

As he looked, the Female Knight knocked on the cabinet: "Old John, I can offer at most 22 million Gold Jialong for this sword!"

"Miss Katarina, 50 million Gold Jialong, not a cent less." Shopkeeper Old John stroked his beard: "You should see clearly, this Holy Sword from Fantasy Land possesses residual Particles of the Courage Law, and is truly a one-of-a-kind item."

"I know, that Adult is unwilling to let you lead troops to the M981 World, so you want to go alone. Honestly, this sword is indeed the only Unique Rank Weapon currently suitable for you."

"Mm..." Katarina furrowed her brow, gripping the Sword Hilt of the Holy Sword.

Pink Particles drifting above were visible to the naked eye.

Big Boss also raised his eyebrows.

Katarina... earlier in the hall, the one who said she wanted to openly wage war on the apocalypse seemed to be her, and she was arguing with a Savior Goddess, seemingly named Cornelia...

Unable to let go of the World of her Birth, so she prepared to go rescue it alone? However... Big Boss raised his eyebrows.

As a lifeform qualified to be a True God, he was very certain that there was no Law Power whatsoever on that so-called Holy Sword.

The pink Particles swirling above looked like Law Power, but in reality, they were merely a forged thing. In other words, it was a Fake.

However, it had to be said, it was made very realistically; if Big Boss had not truly used divine power, he would not have seen through its tricks.

Additionally, inside this shop, there were actually many things with that kind of forged Law Particles, except only the one on that Pocket Watch was true Law Power.

Big Boss looked at Old John with an expressionless face, and in his heart gave him a label.

Swindler.

And, his eyes lingered on Katarina for a little while.

Hiss, this looks like a Triggered Side Quest.

In that case, how to maximize benefits? Big Boss only felt his Birth Radar had activated again.

He reached his hand down, taking out 1 point of Law Power from the Wrath God he had obtained from There, and sprinkled it onto the Tear of the Dragon Demon...

Since Old John sold fake Law Relics, then him selling him fake True God Tears was also very reasonable, right? On the other side, Katarina gripped the Holy Sword in her hand, falling into conflict.

Her unfocused gray-white eyes were full of struggle and Hesitation.

Even the hairband tied in her black ponytail felt Tight and uncomfortable.

50 million Gold Jialong she could still come up with, but this was also all her remaining Assets.

If she used all this money to buy the Holy Sword, then next, she would have no more Assets to purchase high-rank Armor and life-saving Consumables.

This time going to the M981 World, she would inevitably be alone.

Such a Measure was a bit too Adventurous.

The apocalypse that could log into the M981 World was the Fear Evil God; even if it was just an Avatar, without the help of the Courage Law, she had no confidence of winning.

After Hesitating for a moment, Katarina's eyes gradually turned cold.

The M981 World gave Birth to me, raised me, nurtured me; the citizens in the King's Court were all Clan Members sharing the same bloodline as her.

How could she watch them die with her own eyes?

Since she wanted to save them, she could not cherish this Own Body.

If not successful, then become benevolent through death.

If she could Transform into Stars and be buried with the World, it would also count as leaving no regrets.

Thinking of this, Katarina put her hand into her bosom: "Mm, since that's the case, then this sword, I will—"

"Wait!"

Just Then, Big Boss's voice suddenly rang out.

His voice was not Loud, but inside the shop with only two customers, it was extremely clear.

Old John, who had originally already swindled Katarina, did not reduce the smile on his face, but in his heart he already hated this Young person before him.

Seeing that this Fat Sheep was finally about to be closed, how did a person who disrupts the situation suddenly run over?

He looked at the Fake in Katarina's hand without leaving a trace.

Could it be that this kid saw the sword was fake? Impossible, the maker of this sword was that Lady, and the Particles above had been tested by several Rank Eight Demigods, absolutely unable to tell it was forged.

Full of doubts in his heart, but Old John still maintained a Kindly smile: "This customer, if you have needs, you can wait until this customer finishes purchasing, then we can discuss."

"If I wait until she finishes buying, won't what I want be Taken Away?" Big Boss stepped forward: "This Holy Sword is not an ordinary item, I also Need it."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Old John relaxed, heh, another "Good Person" who was swindled: "This customer, the price of this Holy Sword is 50 million Gold Jialong, and, this Knight Miss saw it first."

"If you want to buy it, you have to bid against him."

"Mm..." Katarina's brow was tightly furrowed; she did not expect that the deal about to be settled would suddenly have an uninvited guest kill in.

She looked at Big Boss, but could not see his face under the Hood, then looked at Old John, and Doubt arose in her heart.

Damn it, not coming early, not coming late, but coming out at this time; could it be that this old thing, in order to raise the price, intentionally found a shill? Such things were also common...

"Hehe, you misunderstand, Miss Katarina." Old John shook his head: "50 million Gold Jialong in cash is not something everyone can come up with; if I raised the price, and accidentally raised it to a price you could not come up with, would I still be able to do business?"

"Mm..." Hearing this, Katarina nodded, looking at Big Boss with a Bad Expression.

She hoped this mysterious man before her would not say too exaggerated a price.

If it was below 60 million, she could still sell some Relics on her body to scrape together the same or a bit more money.

"Then customer, what price do you plan to offer?" Old John rubbed his hands, extremely Respectful.

When dealing with foolish Fat Sheep, he had always been this polite.

"Mm, I don't pay money, I offer this." Big Boss took out a small Bottle from his bosom.

Inside the Bottle was a Tear shining with dazzling golden light.

"Tear of a True God; I think Mr. John should recognize goods, right?"

"..." The moment he saw that Tear, the smile on John's face was withdrawn, replaced by unprecedented solemnity: "Please wait a moment."

He Respectfully took the Tear, picked up a Relic for appraisal, and began to observe it bit by bit.

Katarina's heart clenched beside him.

Damn it...

What did this boy take out? Tears of a True God? That's something rarer than relics used by True Gods! Not that Tears of a True God possess power stronger than the relics they use.

It's mainly rare.

So rare that even after hundreds of millions of years, or billions of years, one might not encounter such an item.

After all, to obtain Tears of a True God, you at least have to make him cry in front of you...

Witnessing a god's weeping with one's own eyes?

People like that are all dead, right? Katarina immediately thought this thing was fake, but she also knew that was just her own wishful thinking.

Because if this thing were real, forget selling relics, even if she sold herself, it wouldn't be enough to match the same price.

Thus, she nervously stared at the small bottle in Old John's hand, watching him appraise it little by little.

Her heart hung in her throat, refusing to come down.

Just like that, after about thirty minutes, Old John put down the glass bottle and wiped his eyes with a clean handkerchief: "Oh, Goddess of Law above, heavens, I really didn't expect that in my lifetime I could actually see such a precious treasure."

"To be honest, I really want to kick my own butt with a leather boot to confirm if I'm dreaming—fuck, what are you doing!"

Old John jumped aside after speaking, because Big Boss's foot had already been raised.

He tilted his head doubtfully: "Didn't you say you wanted to be kicked in the butt by a leather boot?"

"..." Old John's mouth corner twitched, veins bulging, but he finally endured and squeezed out a smile: "Hehe, respected Adult, you're truly humorous."

For greater interests, face and such, if you want to step on it, I can put it under your leather shoe at any time! "Adult, this collection of yours is genuine." Old John rubbed his hands: "May I ask, do you plan to use it to exchange for this Holy Sword?"

Hearing these words, Katarina's grip suddenly loosened, and she retreated two steps in disappointment.

The hanging heart finally died.

But Big Boss tapped the table and said softly: "Hah, not enough."
