Chapter 3317

With 3688 Soul Coins remaining, Su Xiao walked out of the equipment reinforcement hall. Just as he left, the hooded girl beside the Witch took off her hood—it was Gulu.

Gulu arrived at the equipment reinforcement machine Su Xiao had just used. In truth, she possessed an 【Exemption Badge (★★)】. Having learned earlier that Su Xiao intended to buy this item, she had prepared to sell it but hadn't decided on a price, so she consulted the Witch. Upon hearing this, the Witch thought it was a great opportunity and snatched the deal on the spot, becoming a party to the transaction.

"Gulu... what are you... doing? Even if you... use that..."

"This is called experience. Bai Ye failed many times just now, throwing in a total of 36 Immortal Stones. Right now, this No. 888 equipment reinforcement machine is in a 'hot' state. Open your eyes wide and witness a miracle!"

Boom!

A muffled sound came from within the reinforcement machine. Gulu had shattered a piece of equipment. Her small fists immediately pounded the machine, and after a while, she muttered to herself and left.

After Gulu left, the corners of the Witch's mouth curled into an elegant arc. She slowly took off her ring, placed it into the reinforcement machine, and after inserting a gemstone, the reinforcement began. A few minutes later.

Boom!

Gemstone fragments splattered everywhere. The Witch stood in place for a moment before putting on her ring and leaving, her mood extremely poor. Just as she left, a Scar-faced Brother who had witnessed everything stepped forward with a confident smile.

Five minutes later, Scar-faced Brother walked away, looking as if his family tree had been wiped out, completely distraught.

At Reid's blacksmith shop, Su Xiao discovered that the soul equipment had not yet finished fusing and the Wild Hunt Night leather coat had not been repaired either, so he headed toward the trading street.

Passing through the fog wall at the entrance of the trading street, Su Xiao found an unoccupied stall and set up shop with Xiang Bubu Wang and Benny.

There were an exceptionally large number of items for sale this time, including 【Black Maple Tree Branch (4370g)】, 【Scale Guardian (Ability Inheritance Stone)】, 【Sun Stone × 490】, 【Egg of Old Dreams (Holy Spirit-grade)】, 【End Meteor】, 【Elemental Ring Blade · Enlightenment】, 【High-Tech Lightning Staff (Gold Quality)】, and 【Immortal-grade Treasure Chest · Double Calamity】.

Besides these, Su Xiao did not intend to keep the five-piece 【Sun Church Set】. Sanity value was a unique attribute of the Painting World, which was no longer digitized, and the Beast Disaster was a thing of the past. Most importantly, the 【Sun Church Set】 only displayed its powerful side when acting alongside other members of the Sun Church.

Su Xiao prepared to keep the 【Church Knight Bucket Helmet】; this item wouldn't sell for much, so he could keep it as a memento or wear it when disguising his identity. Apart from this helmet, the 【Saw-Blade Dual Blades (Holy Spirit-grade)】 were also kept by him.

These dual blades could be folded together, their handles merging into one to become a short blade. Reid's suggestion was to consider smelting the 【Saw-Blade Dual Blades】 with 【Soul Whisper】. This was a new forging technique Reid had mastered, based on those books from the Demon Blacksmith.

Whether to do so would depend on whether Reid could find the necessary ores and materials.

Before long, Benny finished pricing the various items. The entire stall was almost filled to the brim. Surprisingly, the 【High-Tech Lightning Staff (Gold Quality)】 was the first to sell, with a transaction price of 2 Soul Coins. The buyer was shrouded in black mist and walked with hurried steps.

Among the remaining items, even the trashiest was Holy Spirit-grade. This led to many Tier 7 and Tier 8 Some Qiyuezhe gathering in front of the stall a few minutes later, whispering and discussing:

"Selling an Immortal-grade treasure chest? What kind of operation is this?"

"What kind of operation? An operation to scam you to heaven. Under normal circumstances, would anyone sell this thing?"

"Not necessarily. This brother even took out Black Maple Tree branches to sell; what else is he incapable of doing? On this basis, I'm not surprised at all that he's selling an Immortal-grade suffix treasure chest."

There were quite a few onlookers. The 【Egg of Old Dreams (Holy Spirit-grade)】 + 【Elemental Ring Blade · Enlightenment】 + 【Scale Guardian (Ability Inheritance Stone)】 sold quickly, totaling 3150 Soul Coins. Among them, the 【Egg of Old Dreams (Holy Spirit-grade)】 was the most valuable, but even so, it was only a Holy Spirit-grade item.

The main event was yet to come. The Sun Stones were priced at 75 Soul Coins each. At such an affordable price, they were sold out quickly, bringing in a total of 36750 Soul Coins. It seems that robbing a treasury is indeed the fastest way to make money.

The subsequent three items were sluggish. Many people had the intention to buy the Black Maple Tree, but none could come up with a large sum of Soul Coins, mostly preparing to barter. The 【Immortal-grade Treasure Chest · Double Calamity】 also attracted quite a bit of attention, but everyone was hesitant.

The final 【End Meteor】, a weapon with an Immortal-grade 1499 rating, attracted a group of muscular men. I don't know when it started, but the atmosphere there gradually became scorching, vaguely causing people to experience auditory hallucinations, as if they heard "Oh yeah~".

The greatest feature of 【End Meteor】 is locking enemies in a small dark room for a one-on-one fight, and increasing one's own attributes during the duel. Within the cylindrical independent space, one can duel the enemy for 5 minutes.

This weapon has a drawback: it must be used by someone who has mastered body energy systems such as Nether, Nightmare, or Dark Space. It is possible to reverse the equipment prerequisites, but the price to be paid is not small.

More than 20 minutes passed. Among the buying group for 【End Meteor】, three familiar figures appeared. After these three appeared, the other muscular men retreated a bit, giving them plenty of respect. It wasn't fear, but something more profound.

"Brother Bai Ye, long time no see."

The National Football Team Leader crossed his arms over his chest. He wore a small vest that only covered his upper torso, and damn it, it was purple. The most flamboyant part was the heart shape in the center of his chest.

This wasn't the most outrageous part; what was more outrageous were the bodybuilding briefs on his lower body. The three brothers were all dressed like this, just in different colors.

"Brother Bai Ye, what is the price of this equipment?"

The National Football Team Leader looked at the 【End Meteor】 on the stall. Although he couldn't meet the wearing conditions, as long as he paid a sufficient price and found a blacksmith, it wasn't entirely impossible.

The three National Football Team brothers did not hide their desire to buy 【End Meteor】. The three brothers knew that Su Xiao would definitely think of that possibility: after using 【End Meteor】 to lock an enemy in a small dark room, others would use 【End Meteor】 for a one-on-one, but the three National Football Team brothers would all enter that independent space to conduct a righteous three-on-one, giving the enemy a round of "Ora" with big hammers.

"11000 Soul Coins."

Su Xiao spoke. 【End Meteor】 had not yet been forged and was an Immortal-grade blank weapon. Previously, the 【Sin Flame Pendant】 with an Immortal-grade 1499 rating sold for 10900 Soul Coins.

Baha glanced at the three National Football Team brothers and then looked at 【End Meteor】. For some reason, it always felt that selling this weapon to the three National Football Team brothers would cause some unknown, gentle, and beautiful youth to encounter something. Thinking of this, Baha shivered; it was damn scary.

In the end, 【End Meteor】 was taken by the three National Football Team brothers for 10538 Soul Coins. The precision down to the single digit was because the National Football Team really couldn't come up with more.

Just as 【End Meteor】 was sold, a white-haired man squatted in front of the stall, picked up the 【Immortal-grade Treasure Chest · Double Calamity】, sneered, and said:

"500 Soul Coins."

"..."

"Don't be silent. There must be something wrong with this thing of yours. My luck has always been very good. I've even opened these kinds of 'dirty boxes' with a 2.7% probability and made a fortune. 500 Soul Coins, are you selling or not?"

"9000."

"You're dreaming. 2000 at most. Give me one final price, or this business is off."

"9000."

"3000 Soul Coins at most. Not a penny more."

"..."

Su Xiao stopped paying attention to the white-haired man opposite him. He took out the 【Honor Pioneer (Badge)】 to promote the adventure group's level.

【Hint: This promotion of the adventure group level requires 3 minutes and 12 seconds to unlock new team skills.】

Su Xiao closed the hint. The white-haired man opposite discovered that Su Xiao had stopped speaking. He hesitated in his heart. Su Xiao's attitude clearly indicated that the 【Immortal-grade Treasure Chest · Double Calamity】 was indeed a "dirty box," but not too dirty. It seemed something could be opened from it, but the safer way was still to sell it.

"4000 Soul Coins. Not a penny more."

"Deal."

Su Xiao changed the price, but the white-haired man opposite hesitated, putting on an attitude of suddenly not wanting to buy it.

"Forget it. I'll play it safe recently and not touch dirty boxes."

The white-haired man stood up, intending to leave.

"3500. Can't go any lower."

Su Xiao changed the price to 3500 Soul Coins. In reality, due to the influence of his Charisma attribute as the recipient, this treasure chest would definitely be in a debuff state once opened. This thing wasn't even worth 1 Soul Coin in actual price.

Successfully suppressing the price by 500 Soul Coins, the white-haired man bought the 【Immortal-grade Treasure Chest · Double Calamity】. The white-haired man believed that since ancient times, routines win hearts; this wave was not a loss.

【Hint: Your Dawn Adventure Group has been promoted to an SSS-level adventure group (the highest tier adventure group).】

Su Xiao hadn't opened the adventure group list to check yet when an email suddenly popped up. It was an email from Caesar.

Opening the email, Su Xiao saw Caesar's message. The main content was that the opening of the 【Random Extraction Permission】 could not be operated. To be precise, it wasn't that it couldn't be operated, but that Caesar himself couldn't operate it.

Caesar's original words were that his credit as a Judge was too low, and he was often stripped of his Judge status, so his credit couldn't be high. Plus, he not only pulled off shady operations in the reputation shop but also took sides in the World Conquest War and packed up the entire treasury of the camp he was in. Note, it wasn't looting the treasury, but taking the whole thing away.

Su Xiao replied, asking if it was possible to add another person to make up for the deficiency in credit.

Caesar's reply appeared a few seconds later, stating that it was possible to add someone, but that person must also be a Judge, and a Judge with extremely high credit. Only then could Caesar operate from within.

When the term "Judge with high credit" surfaced in Su Xiao's mind, he immediately thought of one person: the Ah-hair King. The Ah-hair King 100% met this condition.
