Chapter 1314: Ten Equivalents

Originally, just following them, everyone wouldn't have an opinion. Silver Coin was a businessman after all. He had done the kind of pestering himself. If you were too face-conscious, you couldn't do the businessman profession well. Even handing out flyers at the door of a Tauren gym, the kind of person who was willing to pester would gain more customers.

You couldn't say that it was okay for you to pester others, but not okay for others to pester you, right? Did they still talk about the vegetable planting law?

But taking action was not okay, and it was detention, restricting personal freedom. This kind of situation was generally beaten to death directly. For the sake of the Blue God Star, even if he wasn't beaten to death, a beating was inevitable.

But before beating him to death or beating him up, Anthony was still very curious. Why did Kadiz, whose attitude was okay at first, suddenly take action to catch people?

Kadiz said: "The Tree God can't wait anymore."

"The Tree God can't wait? Why can't the Tree God wait? Uh, the Tree God can't wait, what does it have to do with Silver Coin? He can't solve the Tree God's problem?" Anthony said.

Kadiz said disdainfully: "Don't pretend. He definitely... no, you definitely have a way to solve the Tree God's problem. I found his confident look from the beginning. Now I am even more certain. You came so fast, and even the God Star lost to you. You must have a way to solve the God Tree's problem."

Silver Coin raised his hand weakly.

Anthony said: "You speak."

Silver Coin said with a wry smile: "We businessmen have an ability called posturing. Even if there is not a single piece of goods in the warehouse, we can pretend that we can deliver the full amount tomorrow. This has nothing to do with whether we can solve the problem. It is just a technique for the convenience of negotiation, which can be pretended at any time."

Kadiz looked at Silver Coin in shock, and then looked at Anthony in shock, asking: "Really?"

This question didn't need Anthony to answer. Luther could answer directly: "Really. When we first met, he dared to cross the plane to trade with us carrying a hundred tons of grain, making me think he had a million-strong army behind him. Who knew he was just a small merchant team captain of an ordinary merchant association?"

Silver Coin was just a vice president of the Silver Merchant Association back then. The Silver Merchant Association was just an ordinary merchant association of a joint-operation nature. It was a loose alliance organized by a pile of merchant teams, sharing business information, unified procurement, unified transportation, and regional distribution. Every vice president was actually just a captain of a merchant team.

There were many such joint-operation merchant associations. Sharing business information could let everyone know where the lowest price of goods was, where the people with the most money were, and where a certain commodity was needed. Then they would unify the procurement of some bulk commodities, such as grain and cloth, to increase bargaining power and lower prices.

Even for such a small merchant association, the area Silver Coin was assigned to was the least developed—the Saint Blade Fortress at the southernmost tip of the land.

But with this kind of strength, Silver Coin dared to carry a hundred tons of grain and, under the situation where the road ahead was unknown, used a high-risk delivery method to deliver it to the Abyss Plane to open up a trade route.

This was actually no longer called opening up a trade route. This was Abyss reclamation, which even adventurers talked about with fear, and had a super high mortality rate.

It made Anna think at the time that he had a million-strong army behind him. Who knew Silver Coin was just a small merchant team person in charge, just one of many merchant teams controlled by the Saint Blade Legion? The upper echelons of the Saint Blade Legion might not even know if dozens of such small merchant teams died.

But it was also because of this that Silver Coin met Ang, became Ang's believer, not only solved the poison on his body, but finally became the God of Commerce.

And all of this started from the posturing the moment he came out of the delivery array. So Silver Coin's "pretending" was purely a businessman's original skill, which had nothing to do with his strength. He was very good at pretending when he was very weak.

After listening to Luther finish blowing Silver Coin's glorious deeds, Kadiz was dumbfounded. Was it really himself who was bluffed by the other party?

However, after being stunned for a while, Kadiz reacted: "Even if he is pretending, you must have a way."

"Whether we have a way has anything to do with you? If we have a way, we will exchange with the Tree God ourselves. We don't need to go through your hands," Anthony said.

"It's also possible. You exchange with the Tree God yourselves. I only need a little bit of star flames as an introduction fee. Better be fast. The Tree God can't hold on for long," Kadiz said.

"What happened? Why can't the Tree God hold on for long? Is the Tree God sick? Also, what do you want star flames for?" Anthony asked "uncomprehendingly."

Kadiz curled his lips: "It's not... that Star-shifting Archer is destroying the roots of the God Tree. If this continues, the Tree God will die of malnutrition."

"Ah? Why is it cutting the Ten Thousand Worlds God Tree?" Leaving here for a period of time, has the situation become so bad? Geburg is actually cutting the roots of the Ten Thousand Worlds God Tree? Why? What is the point of destroying the Ten Thousand Worlds God Tree for it?

Star Flame Giants were the power projected by Gomeizburg. They represented the God Star's will, the God Star's power, and the God Star's wisdom. They themselves had no names. Names like Geburg and Zburg were given by people from the Astrology Association. Anthony heard this name for the first time from the mouth of the Grand Speaker.

Unfortunately, Zburg, who represented the God Star's wisdom, had already been caught. Sure enough, one couldn't rely on wisdom.

Gomeizburg sent these Star Flame Giants here, definitely not to destroy the God Star. Then what was it cutting the Ten Thousand Worlds God Tree for?

The Ten Thousand Worlds God Tree grew on the God Star. It was beneficial and harmless to the growth of the God Star. Instead, it could nourish a large number of lives. Creatures grew relying on the light thrown out by the God Star. The growing life force nourished the Ten Thousand Worlds God Tree to grow. The increment produced by consciousness fed back to the God Star, and the consciousness after death returned to the God Star.

It could be said that with the Ten Thousand Worlds God Tree, the entire increment cycle could be complete. Once the Ten Thousand Worlds God Tree died, a link was missing in the cycle loop, and the God Star would only have the decay link, and the speed would be much faster than a God Star that possessed the Ten Thousand Worlds God Tree.

From the principle, Kadiz was wrong. Cutting off the roots of the Ten Thousand Worlds Tree God would not make the God Tree die of malnutrition, but it would cut off the entire increment cycle.

Kadiz shook his head: "I don't know either, but the Tree God is very anxious. It is willing to take out ten equivalents of star flames to act as a reward. I only need one equivalent of star flames as an introduction fee."

Silver Coin almost laughed out loud. There was no such way to do business. The intermediary fee wasn't collected like this either. You revealed all your trump cards, and who wouldn't bargain? But how much was one equivalent?

This happened to be what Anthony wanted to ask. Kadiz thought for a while and said: "Do you know that besides that Star-shifting Archer, there is another Star Flame Giant?"

Everyone blinked innocently. It had to be said that after mixing in this team for a long time, the ability to pretend to be stupid had risen for everyone.

Anthony asked even more "confusedly": "Star Flame Giant? There is another one?"

Kadiz nodded: "Yes, taking that Star Flame Giant as the standard, it only has 0.7 equivalents."

Everyone gasped in their hearts, but they had to make a blank expression on their faces. Anthony asked even more "confusedly": "What about that Star-shifting Archer? How many equivalents does it have?"

"The strength of that Star-shifting Archer is very erratic, swinging between 0.4 and 0.6 equivalents. It only had 0.6 equivalents when it fought the Star-born army before," Kadiz said.

Anthony suddenly turned to the soul network and said: "We must take down these star flames. If we get these star flames, the Lord's Star Flame clone can possess more than ten times the strength of that Star Flame Giant."
