Chapter 410: Clamoring at the Battle Angel

"It needs a special material called World Tree, which has the ability to accelerate decomposition. We have been looking for it for a long time and couldn't find it," Silver Coin said.

"That's easy to handle. Let's look at the Home of the Departed," Lutixiya said with a smile.

Silver Coin shook his head: "The Home of the Departed doesn't have it. We often browse it and rarely see high-level materials for sale."

Lutixiya smiled mysteriously: "Rarely high-level materials? Then have you ever thought that it's because your mark level is too low?"

Silver Coin widened his eyes and said 'surprised': "Marks have levels?"

Lutixiya didn't answer, but directly asked someone to find information about the World Tree. Although she was human, to her level of wealth, raising a few necromancers was easy.

Soon, the subordinate mage reported: "Lord, there is exactly one piece of information about the sale of the World Tree. The seller is a mercenary group called Vegetable Bone."

"Vegetable Bone? What a strange name. How much money?" Lutixiya asked.

"200,000 magic crystals, the attributes and functions are as follows..."

"Bought."

Soon, a piece of wood the size of a palm was teleported over from the teleportation array next to it.

Lutixiya was greatly disappointed. A broken piece of wood is worth 200,000? What can be special about a flame emblem made with it?

"Hehe, there's nothing special. Eh, the size is just right. How about this, I'll teleport the World Tree wood back and let our people process it, how about that? I'll stay here," Silver Coin asked.

"Please," Lutixiya said generously. Silver Coin could take out four finished products and one semi-finished flame emblem, so she wasn't worried that the other party would cheat her out of this 200,000 worth of wood.

However, Silver Coin's initiative to stay behind showed sincerity, which made her feel more at ease.

Silver Coin found some plastic clay, made a mold of the place where Lutixiya's sword hilt would place the emblem, teleported it back, and also teleported the World Tree wood back.

Half an hour later, the finished product was teleported over.

The finished product was a pair of wings folded into a heart shape, with a flame emblem embedded in the center, and there were indentations between the feather patterns.

There was a pair of such wings, just one on the left and one on the right, covering the junction of the sword hilt and the blade. Part of the wing tips touched the blade, which looked quite beautiful.

It's just that the left one was embedded with an emblem, while the right one was empty, with only a groove, which made Lutixiya, who had obsessive-compulsive disorder, very uncomfortable.

But Silver Coin seemed not to have noticed her discomfort and processed the two protective wings on his own, smeared black liquid on the contact surfaces of the protective wings, and then pressed them tightly.

Before long, the two protective wings grew together, forming a whole, tightly wrapping the junction of the sword hilt, completely unable to see that they were made of two pieces of wood.

"Alright, Lord, you can try it. First, fill these pits with fire-type magic crystals." Silver Coin handed the longsword to Lutixiya and said with a smile.

Lutixiya followed suit, filled the pits, then poured in battle aura, and swung the longsword lightly.

As soon as the longsword moved, a look of shock immediately appeared on Lutixiya's face. She clearly felt the longsword was lighter, the battle aura was more agile, and the aura was smoother, as if the longsword had 'come alive', coordinating with her movements.

"This..." What is the situation?

Lutixiya felt it was somewhat incredible. The sword in her hand swung faster and faster, faster and faster. Suddenly, she slashed in front of her, and a gas blade composed of flames rolled open in the air.

Lutixiya's eyes lit up. She swung again, and at the same time, she unleashed her battle aura. Only then did the battle aura and flames break out of the sword, protruding a two-meter-long blade light at the tip of the sword, slashing fiercely forward.

The tables, chairs, and walls blocking the front were all whipped by this flame blade light, exploding into a scorched black mark.

"Oh—!" Lutixiya's mouth opened into a circle. Although she could also slash out blade light, it could only be one meter long, and the power was much smaller than this, completely not in the same grade.

This flame emblem had an amplification effect on her strength.

Just this point alone, she felt it was super worth it, let alone the smooth feeling as if it had been lubricated when swinging.

"How much money?!" Satisfied, it was time to talk about the price.

Silver Coin shook his head: "Lord, you haven't tried all the functions yet. Let's talk about the price after you try them all."

"There are other functions?" Lutixiya was surprised.

"Of course, you channel battle aura and pat the emblem, then slash with all your might," Silver Coin instructed.

Lutixiya channeled battle aura and patted the emblem, feeling a feedback of being shaken, and then she felt that the magic crystals embedded between the wing indentations were actually disintegrating at high speed, and all the released elements were rolled into the emblem.

Seeing this scene, Lutixiya said in shock: "I know! This emblem is converting the energy of the magic crystals and then resonating with my power, which is why it's so smooth when I swing it."

It was simply equivalent to this sword exerting force by itself; even if thrown to the side, it could move on its own.

"Slash, slash, slash." Silver Coin said urgently.

"Oh oh oh." Lutixiya also noticed that the power inside the sword was somewhat out of control and was about to break out of the sword.

She slashed forward fiercely. At the moment she swung the sword, a burst of flames quickly rushed out from the emblem, rolled along the sword body to the tip of the sword, and as she swung, combined with the battle aura, and sprayed out.

A flame like a firebird rushed out, slammed into the wall, and blew up the entire wall. The power was comparable to a Level 7 flame spell.

"This... this... this..." Lutixiya was stunned by this power. She saved up battle aura and could probably have this power with a full-force strike, but this was a long-range attack.

Think about it, fighting a Sword Saint of similar strength to a standstill, and after a fierce clash, the moment both sides bounced apart, she activated this move and slammed it into the enemy who had just pulled away and hadn't had time to catch their breath. How wonderful would that effect be?

Fatal blow!

Silver Coin rubbed his hands and said sincerely: "This move hasn't been named yet. If you are willing to pay a little fee, the mage who created this move should be very happy to transfer the naming rights to you."

"Good, no problem. I'll buy the naming rights. I want to call this move 'Lutixiya Slash'!" Lutixiya said excitedly.

"What a good name. There is one more point. This kind of World Tree wood can only withstand five such full-force decompositions. There are four left now," Silver Coin said.

"What? Only four left?" Lutixiya was shocked.

"Yes, unless there is new World Tree wood, there are only four left," Silver Coin said.

"Alright, I'll keep an eye out to see if there is any more of this wood. Now, let's talk about the price of this emblem," Lutixiya said.

Silver Coin said a number, and Lutixiya widened her eyes: "What? 200,000 magic crystals, so cheap?"

It wasn't expensive, it was cheap, too cheap. Not to mention the final 'Lutixiya Slash', just the function of resonating with her power made Lutixiya unable to stop. She had already prepared for a big hemorrhage, but didn't expect Silver Coin to report such a low price.

Silver Coin complained in his heart, but on the surface, he said sincerely: "Including the naming fee, it should be 300,000. The main material was also bought by you, so we just charge a labor fee."

"This... this is so embarrassing." Lutixiya said it was embarrassing, but her hand behind her back made gestures quickly, and the female guard hurriedly presented three magic crystal cards on a tray, each with a face value of 100,000.

Silver Coin didn't stand on ceremony and accepted them, smiling: "Goods and money are cleared, happy cooperation. I hope there will be a chance for cooperation next time. I'll take my leave first."

"Wait a minute, here, what is this empty space for?" Lutixiya suddenly remembered something and hurriedly called Silver Coin to stop.

One side of her sword was embedded with a flame emblem, while the other side was empty.

When the original sword didn't have the World Tree protective wings, only one side could be embedded with an emblem, but now there was an extra protective wing, yet there were two embedding positions. Why was this?

Could it be that the empty embedding position was for convenience to swap emblems back and forth? Is it necessary? If it's not necessary, why make an embedding position? Obsessive-compulsive disorder can't bear it.

"Oh, this is the position for the second emblem. You can embed another emblem of the same fire attribute, and they can be used at the same time," Silver Coin said.

"Ouch, why didn't you say so earlier? Quick, quick, take out your Level 4 flame emblem... forget it, take them all out, I want them all," Lutixiya said impatiently.

Selling all the Level 1, 2, 3, and 4 emblems, he harvested a few more magic crystal cards. Only then did Silver Coin enter the teleportation array. Before starting the teleportation, he suddenly remembered something and said: "Oh, by the way, our Alchemy Master said, if the flame emblem and the sword, as well as the armor, can be matched into a set, the power will be even..."

Before he finished speaking, the teleportation array started, and Silver Coin's figure disappeared in the light, leaving only an echo: The power will be even...

Even what? Even what?! Lutixiya was so anxious she wanted to go to the bathroom. Only then did she remember that Silver Coin didn't seem to leave contact information?

If trading through the Home of the Departed, she could contact Silver Coin at any time through the Home of the Departed.

But sometimes, for the sake of confidentiality or tax avoidance, some people choose to contact directly and trade privately. Silver Coin was such a case.

Now that he had teleported away, Lutixiya remembered that she didn't leave the other party's contact information.

It was all because the shock brought by the flame emblem was too great. Lutixiya looked at the empty teleportation array with annoyance and muttered:

"Even what? Exactly 'even' what? Even more powerful? You should have said so earlier. I'll order the whole set. I, Lutixiya, want only the best."

Silver Coin, who returned to God-Fall Town, presented eight magic crystal cards with a face value of 100,000 and told the whole story, making the Huang Tong Dragon, Du Luo Ken, and Luokesi stare in astonishment.

"People wanted to buy a 50,000 magic crystal flame emblem, but you sold 1 million worth of goods? Twenty times, did you make a mistake?" Nigris shouted in disbelief.

"You let me hang the sale information of World Tree wood in the Home of the Departed, eating everything from raw materials to production costs. You profiteer." Du Luo Ken's face was full of praise.

"A naming right can be sold for 100,000 magic crystals? This... the world of the rich, I don't understand, but I am greatly shocked." Luokesi had an expression of world-view collapse.

Her 600 soul crystals could only be exchanged for 1,800 magic crystals at most. Now someone bought a naming right without a physical object and spent 100,000.

Du Luo Ken asked with great interest: "Why did you leave that little tail at the end? Want to fish? But why didn't you leave contact information?"

Fishing? Luokesi, a senior fisherman, immediately became energetic, blinked, and then reacted. The fishing Du Luo Ken mentioned didn't seem to be the same thing as the fishing she knew.

Silver Coin explained: "Creatures only understand the preciousness of food when they are hungry, and thus are willing to pay a price far exceeding the value of the food itself to obtain it. Let her starve for a while first."

Nigris and Du Luo Ken were thoughtful, while Luokesi was completely confused.

……

1 million magic crystals, 200,000 of which were traded through the Home of the Departed, and they took away a 20% handling fee...

The profiteer Silver Coin sighed: "It's still more profitable to be a platform."

"Uh, are you talking about this?" Du Luo Ken took him into the Home of the Departed and used the highest authority mark to check a set of numbers. This was a string of eight-digit numbers, and it was constantly increasing.

"This... this is?" Silver Coin asked in shock.

"This is the handling fee collected by the Home of the Departed. Now this platform is ours," Du Luo Ken said.

"Can... can it be used?" Silver Coin asked.

Du Luo Ken shook his head: "No, I don't know where the magic crystals are stored, and the simple highest authority mark might not be able to withdraw this money. It might need His Majesty's authorization or other permissions."

Magic crystals are not a string of numbers, but have corresponding physical objects. They don't even know where they are stored, so of course, they can't withdraw them.

Silver Coin was beaming with joy, not caring at all. Although he couldn't withdraw them, he was very happy to see so much money in the account and it was constantly increasing.

Anyway, the magic crystals on hand were enough to spend now. Silver Coin collected all the information at the fastest speed. A week later, he had gathered all the materials to build the teleportation array.

During this week, Ang had recovered quite a bit and took the opportunity to stuff the little zombie over.

Nigris no longer asked Ang to stuff it over because it already had a new body, a palm-sized mini Huang Tong Dragon.

"Ku Ba Da, whoever calls me an embryonic dragon again, I'll get urgent with them. I'm not even as good as an embryo now. What am I? An egg dragon?" Nigris cursed and flew around Ang's head, very angry.

Ang nodded and continued to fiddle with the stone slabs on the ground.

Luokesi's castle had been occupied by him, stacking up shelves, laying stone slabs on the shelves, spreading soil purified by holy light, sprinkling holy mushroom spores, and then watering with holy water.

Ang intended to replant holy mushrooms to extract essence liquid. Otherwise, relying on the little essence liquid grabbed over, it was only enough to soak out a Huang Tong Dragon the size of an egg.

"I think you are just finding an excuse to plant things. You could have stuffed me over first, but you insisted on stuffing the little zombie over. You just want it to help you dig the ground!" Nigris cursed.

Ang nodded.

"Hey, you're still nodding, you're making me angry." Nigris was so angry that its beard curled up.

Being so much smaller made it very uncomfortable, but it wasn't happy to go back into the Huang Tong Book either. After all, a book has no hands or feet, which is very different from its original life form and very awkward.

Amidst the noise, the sound of horse hooves suddenly rang out outside the castle.

Ang and the others came to the fishing platform of the castle and looked out. They saw a team of knights in different attire galloping along the river on the other side of the town, kicking up a cloud of dust. It was clearly one chasing and one fleeing.

Seeing someone appear on the platform, the fleeing side shouted urgently: "Help! Help!"

The people on the platform didn't react and watched them silently.

Seeing that everyone didn't react, the fleeing person ran past in despair.

The pursuers obviously also heard the person in front shouting for help. Seeing that Ang and the others didn't react, they thought they were afraid and didn't take action, so they laughed loudly and shouted: "Consider yourselves sensible, don't meddle in other people's business, otherwise you won't live long, get lost!"

Someone even prepared to raise their bow to aim at the people on the platform.

The little angel and little zombie, who had been staying quietly and obediently, instantly became energetic and looked at each other, revealing excited expressions in unison.

Nigris covered its face. You say you're chasing and killing, Ang and these guys are too lazy to meddle in other people's business, why are you clamoring?

And you are clamoring at a Battle Angel? ===== CHAPTER 411 =====
