After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply Chapter 100: 98. Secret Realm Square, sweep for equipment2

Lin Da held Monica's hand, his voice gentle, "You've gotten used to not wearing the box, right? With the captain here, no one will hurt you."

"Yes, yes!" Monica's sleek and cute forehead shone slightly under the sun as she nervously responded.

The girl, like a sheep entering a wolf pack, leaned close to Lin Da, looking down, her big eyes daring only to glance at her toes, twisting inside her round-toed leather shoes.

Monica, mustering her courage, looked up, only to find herself surrounded by a bunch of curious adventurers, which frightened her into hugging Lin Da's back and burying her small face into it.

Lin Da, looking at Monica, who was buried in him like an ostrich, sighed helplessly in his heart.

Helping Monica overco her social anxiety would still be a long journey.

As they reached the center of the Secret Realm Square, he transferred ten thousand gold coins from his Savings Card to Kafni; they split up to scour the Secret Realm Square for equipnt.

Not just for the three of them, everything was within their shopping scope, including earth system Magic Staves, Magic Scrolls, and Striking Series weapons.

The earlier they were from the Murderous Crab surge, the more stable the prices of such equipnt. Once the big rchants noticed and began buying crazily, market prices would also fluctuate.

"A Level 10 Mage cloak, this is a rare quality item, just exploded out yesterday, the latest model, both stylish and practical, 500 gold coins, can't go any lower!"

At a small stall, Lin Da haggled with a golden-haired elf adventurer.

What he was interested in was a cloak that could enhance Magic Attributes; it was lighter than cumberso armor, could increase agility, and could slightly improve casting speed.

"Captain, that..."

Suddenly, Monica tugged his sleeve, and he looked over in confusion, only to see Monica timidly pointing at a belt hanging from the elf stallholder's waist, under which dangled a bottle of silver-glittering Magic Potion.

Before coming to the Secret Realm Square to shop, Lin Da had instructed the two teammates that besides buying equipnt, if they found any tal Destroyer Potion, they must secure it!

Once he killed the hidden BOSS, many adventure teams would realize the benefits of this potion and the price would skyrocket.

Making use of the current unawareness of the true uses of tal Destroyer Potion, Lin Da would scoop up any he saw!

He casually asked, "That Magic Potion, are you selling it?"

"Ah, Life Potion? That's not for sale, I still need it," the elf stallholder shook his head.

"No, I an that silver one."

"tal Destroyer? You want this thing?"

The elf stallholder, surprised, took the potion out of his pouch and muttered, "What's the use of this thing? It's not like it needs to improve accuracy when fighting tal monsters."

The way the stallholder casually fiddled with it, it seed he wouldn't mind if it broke.

In fact, his team had exploded this potion last month on the fifth floor of the Great Mystery Continent, during a battle against Magical Creatures; it hadn't sold for days, and even at one gold coin, people thought it was too expensive.

Yet, this potion had exploded after a fierce battle with Rare Magical Beasts!

"How many gold coins will you give?" asked the stallholder, nad Klay, squinting at Lin Da.

If this human showed any obsession with the potion, he was ready to jack up the price without hesitation.

Lin Da stroked his chin and observed for a while, grinding Klay's patience almost thin, before finally making an offer:

"Give it to ."

Klay: "?"

You lil' rascal, not even willing to part with a single gold coin, huh?

Lin Da pointed to a pile of equipnt in front of him, "I plan to buy all these, throwing in one potion isn't too much, right?"

"All of it?" Klay was shocked.

With many small vendors in the square, Klay, fearing Lin Da would turn to another stall, quickly passed over the silver potion: "Fine, I can't use it anyway, it's yours!"

"What's the total price for these equipnts?" Lin Da casually took the potion and put it into his pouch.

"A total of seven items, 3000 gold. I'll give you a discount, let's make it 2700 gold coins!"

Lin Da shook his head, "Let's stick to 3000 gold, I feel like, as adventurers, we all have it tough."

He worried that in a few days, the stallholder would be heartbroken enough to jump off a building.

Once the true value of tal Destroyer Potion was revealed, it could easily sell for a hundred thousand gold coins...

Lin Da did not haggle and directly paid the full price of 3000 gold using his savings card as Klay had stated.

Klay, moved, grasped his hand, "You are quite the nice person!"

"Not to deceive you, but for these equipnts, our adventure team has suffered great losses. With everyone having lost limbs, they are all waiting for to bring back the gold!"

Lin Da: "..."

After thinking it over, he swiped another thousand gold and said solemnly, "When entering the Mystic Realm, safety must co first!"

Klay was so touched that he nearly cried—apparently, there were still kind-hearted adventurers around!

Carying the equipnt he had purchased in a large bag, Lin Da could faintly sll the lingering stench of blood on it.

The crowded square was full of disabled adventurers setting up their stalls.

He couldn't help but sigh, "Low-level adventurers have it so tough."

The higher-level adventurers were relatively wealthy, with powerful equipnt and town portal scrolls, hence they faced a lower rate of casualties. Even if they couldn't defeat the higher-level magical creatures, they still had many ways to retreat.

But it was different for low-level adventurers.

Town Portal Scrolls, those for floors 1-10, cost over 10,000 gold coins—unaffordable for them!

Each piece of equipnt was obtained through sweat and blood, and even life.

During the purchasing process, Lin Da t one low-level adventurer after another.

Their lives were generally very tough. The materials and Demon Cores from low-level magical creatures were too cheap, barely making any money.

Magical creatures of the sa level were no weaker than adventurers, and often required several adventurers working together to kill one.

A slight carelessness could lead to casualties.

When Lin Da arrived at the Mystic Continent three years ago, despite being a Healer with average talents, having a wealth of strategies, and an excellent magic chanting speed, coupled with Lia and others… he hadn't experienced the harshness of adventuring.

In fact, casualties among low-level adventurers were all too common.

One afternoon, Lin Da saw many adventurers walking out of the World Tree looking distraught.

They carried white body bags, their shoulders stained with fresh blood. Inside were teammates who had been joking together just hours before.

The heavy atmosphere plunged the Secret Realm Square into silence.

Every adventurer sighed and mourned silently. No one knew who might be the next to be carried out or left behind in the World Tree forever.

All the more experienced adventurers had been through the heart-wrenching experience of carrying out the bodies of their comrades.

Lin Da, holding Monica's hand, both paid silent respects.

Looking at that adventure team with vacant stares, as if drained of all their blood and sweat, a bold idea suddenly sprang to his mind—could he do sothing for these low-level adventurers?

The first ten floors were where the mortality rate of adventurers was highest.

These ten floors were not more dangerous than those beyond, yet they were a huge challenge for rookie adventurers.

They lacked the experience to handle the magical creatures in the Mystic Realm, and their mindset could easily falter. Performing well outside, they would beco excited and nervous once inside the Mystic Realm, failing to perform even seventy percent of their ability.

But according to Lin Da's unorthodox tactics, for the first ten floors of the Mystic Realm, if the adventurer's level was sufficient, they could pass through easily, even without injury.

The adventurers shouldn't die in the World Tree Secret Realm. The future war against the Demon Lord's Army needed everyone to contribute their strength.

The more adventurers that reached the higher levels, the easier Lin Da's journey to conquer the Demon King beca.

With this, he made a decision.

The strategy for the first ten floors at Phoenix Tail Flower will be shared with adventurers from all cities!

He would teach them hand by hand how to defeat the magical creatures in the Mystic Realm.

Every adventurer who survives because of his strategy might beco a key force in the future battle against the Demon Lord's Army.

The Demon King would be dealt with by the heroes, but the Demon Generals, nurous foot soldiers, magical creatures... these were up to the adventurers to handle.
