A million!
According to the ratio of ten to one, a million credits was only 100,000 star coins, which was not a big deal for rich people, but at least it sounded cool.
1.03 million!
Red Wine Coffee looked at the terminal and again reported the bid of the player through remote bidding. The bidding was over 30,000, and Black Rose hesitated. Obviously, the price of 1 million had reached her upper limit. Increasing the price was a problem worth serious consideration.
1.13 million!
At that time, Roaring Dragon Lightwind spoke softly to increase the price by 100,000 credits just like Black Rose—which was obviously intentional.
Black Rose’s eyebrows straightened as she stared at Dragon with anger.
You!
Why don’t you continue to increase the price?
said Roaring Dragon Lightwind, lifting his eyelids and staring back at her with a smile.
Black Rose clenched her teeth and opened her mouth a few times, but she did not increase the bid. She had no money left. Otherwise, her character may not have been able to endure this.
The other nine buyers have given up on bidding!
Red Wine Coffee looked at the terminal, but his eyes snuck a look at Black Rose with a weird expression.
Red Wine Coffee then turned to Feng Luo.
The highest bid is Mr. Lightwind’s 1.13 million credits. Are you satisfied with this price, sir?
Although the buyers competed for the final price, the decision to sell was still in the hands of the seller.
Well, yes I am!
Feng Luo said, placing the empty mug on the table.
The face of Roaring Dragon Lightwind revealed a smile.
Very well. Mr. Feng, let’s proceed with the transaction.
Feng Luo smiled and stared into the eyes of Roaring Dragon Lightwind.
Oh, sorry. I think you may have misunderstood. I am satisfied with the offer of Miss Black Rose, so the two parties of the transaction will be her and me. Sorry for wasting your time.
Roaring Dragon Lightwind’s confident smile disappeared.
You…!
Did I hear you wrong?
Black Rose’s face was shocked as she looked at Feng Luo with a weird expression. She was probably thinking, What is this guy trying to do?
No, you didn’t!
said Feng Luo. He was still smiling and said to Roaring Dragon Lightwind,
Let me introduce myself. My ID is ‘Feng Zhi Luo Ye.’ I guess you must have heard of it.
Feng Zhi Luo Ye…
said Roaring Dragon Lightwind.
Very well. I understand.
He calmed himself, stood up, and walked away. His face suddenly became frosty as he turned around.
Looking at the back of Roaring Dragon Lightwind, Red Wine Coffee’s face was completely puzzled.
What exactly is going on?
he asked.
Sorry. I’ve had bad experienced with the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Corps,
Feng Luo explained.
They are currently looking for me, so…
Understanding the reason, Red Wine Coffee shook his head with a helpless face.
This… Mr. Feng, you could get me killed!
Humph!
Black Rose grunted with a pair of heroic eyes gazing at Red Wine Coffee.
Red Wine Coffee, who had remained polite, now said bitterly,
I was wrong. I was wrong… cousin!
Cousin… So, it turned out that they were relatives in reality. This surprised Feng Luo. No wonder they had reacted weirdly before. However, it was clear that Red Wine Coffee had been neutral in the previous trading process and hadn’t helped her because of the relationship between the two. In terms of character, Feng Luo gave him a full 10 out of 10.
Black Rose turned her head and looked at Feng Luo.
Mr. Feng, I still don’t understand. Even if you don’t deal with the Roaring Dragon Mercenary group, you didn’t have to agree with my offer. You know there’s still a buyer whose offer is higher than mine.
Hey, do you fancy my cousin?
joked Red Wine Coffee.
You did this to get closer to her, didn’t you?
But he stopped after seeing Black Rose glaring at him with a face of shy anger.
The reason is that this equipment was obtained by me and a friend, and that friend is from your Veterans Tribe,
Feng Luo explained with a smile.
Hence, a little discount is fine.
I see,
said Black Rose.
What is your friend’s ID? I might know him.
Apparently, she did not completely believe him.
His name is Dan Hen. You must know him, right?
Feng Luo asked unsurely.
Black Rose’s face was stunned. Her vigilant look vanished.
I see! You are Brother Dan Hen’s friend! Since you are a friend of Brother Dan Hen, then I shall not let you be at a disadvantage.
Black Rose had a smile on her face, but the smile meant something else as she turned his head and said to Red Wine Coffee,
Xiao Jiu, give me 50,000 credits. I will pay you cash when I go to your house at night.
The expression on the face of Red Wine Coffee suddenly soured as if he was crying.
Okay, cousin. I admit it. I will transfer the money to you, and you don’t have to pay me back. Please don’t come to my house at night!
How could I?
said Black Rose. She still had a smile on her face, but Feng Luo felt a cold and murderous aura emanating from her.
You have lent me so much money, it is necessary for a sister to thank you in person. Then we can discuss the practical usage of the 18th set of military boxing!
Feng Luo looked at the uneasy Red Wine Coffee. Brother, I wish you all the best! he said in his heart.
The transaction process was very smooth. The virtual transaction contract applied to the system was signed. Then the process was carried out by a third-party person—Red Wine Coffee representing the Starry Sky Company—and the Hurricane Controller was assigned to the new master. However, in the end, Feng Luo refused the price increase offered by Black Rose, insisting on only receiving 1 million. This move gave Red Wine Coffee and Black Rose a good impression of him.
Oh, can you bring something to Brother Dan Hen for me, Ms. Black?
said Feng Luo.
After the transaction was complete, Feng Luo had Black Rose wait for a while. He went to the first floor of the Exchange and retrieved the Bloodtooth Knife that he had bought for Dan Hen. He placed it in a box and handed it to the Black Rose to pass on to him. As for why she was called Ms. Black, it was at Black Rose’s own request. This female Scout spoke like someone from the military.
Before Red Wine Coffee left, he didn’t forget to put an advertisement for his company.
Mr. Feng, nice working with you,
he said.
If you have any equipment to sell in the future, please do contact me. Starry Sky Company can definitely help you sell at the best price.
Sure!
said Feng Luo.
Feng Luo smiled as they left the cafe. He turned his head and went back to his position, opening the trading panel. It was time to buy the materials of the Eye of the Thunder. With almost 800,000 credits earned, the material cost was enough. He intended to restock something for Feng Zhi Dan Hen Ammunition Store on the way.
A three-person video conference was underway in a deluxe room on the second floor of the Exchange, where Feng Luo was shopping for the materials of the Eye of the Thunder.
Yes, and that was what happened,
the gloomy Roaring Dragon Ruinous Star informed the other two people through the floating screen about the conflict with Feng Luo and the Veterans Tribe.
Lightwind… any suggestions?
The voice coming from the screen sounded serious. Through the camera, it was clear that the speaker was farming monsters. Behind him, a team of dozens of Manipulators and Machine Gunners were constantly casting skills against a dense group of monsters. The monster’s deaths could bring about many experience points. The man was wearing a mage’s robe with pale blue trim, and there was an aggressive gaze in his long, narrow eyes. He was the head of the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group: Roaring Dragon Invincible.
Ruinous Star was a bit unwise this time,
Roaring Dragon Lightwind said.
We ought to be trying to attract this caliber of player to our group. Especially given that he is a sniper. If he is secretly against us, it will definitely cause trouble. Moreover, according to the information obtained, he is an expert Gunman. How valuable is this professional to us? How could you know that?
He sat back on the black leather sofa in the luxurious room with a complete set limited edition giant projector and wine cooler. Few people knew that this guy who specialized in scouting Exchange centers and logistics was actually the brains behind the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group, as well as one of the people in charge of the entire group.
Roaring Dragon Ruinous Star bowed his head and said,
I was indeed not rational in handling this matter.
But in his heart, he was indifferent.
Roaring Dragon Invincible did not notice the subtle movements of Ruinous Star but continued to ask Lightwind,
Lightwind, do you mean to revoke his wanted order?
No!
Roaring Dragon Lightwind whispered.
If I had known this half an hour ago, I guess I would have advised you to do this, but this is beyond my control now. Keep his wanted order but also raise the level. Increase the credits for a first level kill reward to 10,000. And then, when we kill the Veterans Tribe, we shall send men to kill him all the way back to Level 0! It seems that something major happened.
After hearing the words of Roaring Dragon Lightwind, Ruinous Star was stunned.
Roaring Dragon Invincible smiled and did not ask for the reason.
Then will do it your way. Now, our main goal is the Veterans Tribe. The board of directors is very dissatisfied with the delay in taking over Silvermoon City, so the task must be completed in four days. This mission determines how quickly we can destroy the Veterans Tribe.
Roaring Dragon Invincible broke his transmitter after speaking.
