Chapter 1374: Chapter 1378: Soone Is Collecting Junk
"What a fool, trying to take advantage of ? Not in this lifeti!" Zhang nglong swaggered away from the group of supre beings, while the unlucky guy from earlier took his place as the center of attention.
Those martial arts techniques and insights might be good, but to Zhang nglong, they were practically worthless. He had way more advanced martial arts techniques, far superior ones.
He didn’t need any martial arts insights either, because the word "bottleneck" simply didn’t exist in Zhang nglong’s dictionary. That’s what being an ultimate lifeform is all about!
The supre beings were probably fighting over those things by now, and by the ti they rember him, who knows how many years would have passed.
"But this is a bit tricky, having so much wealth attracts attention. With my current realm, any random birdbrain might want to cause
trouble."
Zhang nglong pulled out a mask, a little trinket he found among Dorn’s collection. It could simulate the aura of a supre being without getting noticed. Of course, it was just for show, but in tis like this, it could co in handy.
In other places, it would be hard to find even one or two supre beings in the entire world, but here, in this place, supre beings were everywhere, and true gods were as common as dogs. Seeing a supre being was the most normal thing.
Even if others saw that Zhang nglong was loaded, without knowing how strong he was, they probably wouldn’t dare make a move.
Moreover, there’s an unspoken rule here. Everyone’s struggling to survive, and oftentis in the Nine-story Tower, they need to work in teams. So everyone here could be a key strength, and fighting to the death is prohibited!
This middle world is smaller compared to any other world. According to today’s news from Nado, the population here is around 50 million. Coincidentally, once so people die, new ones arrive, maintaining about the sa overall number.
Fifty million may be a lot, but for any world, even a small one, it’s too few. A random intelligent civilization could have populations in the billions.
So this middle world doesn’t require much space, with general areas for living and leisure, and the other half for trading.
The so-called trading market is just an open area, but any small vendor you pick out could be a top-tier supre being.
The items sold here are diverse, including special goods from various worlds, precious tals, rare dicinal herbs, and most importantly, things obtained from the Nine-story Tower.
In the Nine-story Tower, they receive sothing for passing each level, guaranteeing a fixed reward.
Of course, if you’re daring and creative, there are many opportunities to find treasures on every level.
It’s like playing a dungeon raid, with a set reward and so random rewards too.
"Hey brother, want to take a look at what I’ve got here? You might find sothing just right for you," a supre being warmly greeted Zhang nglong.
Zhang nglong bent down, looking over 21 items at the stall, but only one really caught his interest.
It was a long rod, around 20 or 30 centiters in length, completely black and looking utterly ordinary.
Yet, at the sight of it, Zhang nglong felt a hint of reverence in his heart.
"Brother, you have a good eye," the supre being said. "I got this from the Nine-story Tower. It should be a fragnt of a weapon once used by a perfect creature."
"Oh?" Zhang nglong’s eyes brightened. A weapon from a perfect creature? That ranks far above supre weapons.
"It’s a pity it’s just a broken weapon, not much use, maybe just a bit sturdier," Zhang nglong mumbled, ready to walk away.
"Wait, brother, this isn’t just any ordinary broken weapon!"
"Oh? What’s so special about it?" Zhang nglong suddenly beca interested.
"This weapon can deliver an attack akin to that of a perfect creature!" the supre being said. "If you encounter danger in the Nine-story Tower, this might save your life."
"An attack comparable to a perfect creature?" Indeed, that was sothing extraordinary. Although Zhang nglong found it hard to gauge the power of a perfect lifeform’s attack, considering the last ti an Observer appeared and wiped out a supre being with a single slap, a perfect creature’s attack might be dozens of tis that of a supre being.
If it truly was sothing like that, it would be a lifesaving trump card in crucial monts.
"How about it? If you want it, it’s only 20,000 starstones.
"Alright, I’ll take it."
"Ah?" The supre being was stunned. He had basically set an asking price for negotiation, not expecting Zhang nglong to agree without bargaining, sealing the deal with one decisive stroke.
Fearing Zhang nglong would change his mind, the supre being quickly exchanged cash for goods.
"Brother, you really wasted those starstones," a passing supre being advised earnestly.
"Why do you say that?" Zhang nglong asked.
"It’s true the piece can strike like a perfect being, but to trigger that energy, you’d need the unique power of a perfect creature, which we simply can’t harness!"
"But that’s not entirely true," the man smiled. "Didn’t soone manage to use it last ti?"
"Last ti, soone found a container in the Nine-story Tower capable of storing the energy of a perfect lifeform, and it was by sheer luck they could trigger it. Could you just find such energy anywhere?"
"The energy of a perfect lifeform, could it be the kind of destructive energy? If so, I might be able to activate this thing," Zhang nglong thought with impatience, eager to test it out sowhere now.
"This thing is only sturdier than others. Here, everything sells by weight, and your small piece is worth only a few hundred starstones at most. You were greatly overcharged.
"Get lost, don’t interfere with my business!" The exposed supre being was suddenly furious, "Our transaction is complete, you can’t back out now even if you want to."
"I didn’t say I wanted to back out," Zhang nglong replied. To ordinary folks, it was just buying a sowhat resilient weapon, but for him, it was almost like purchasing a one-ti-use magical treasure!
Even if it’s one-ti-use, having multiple of them could still be of great use. Judging by what the other supre being said, these weapon fragnts seed quite common here.
With that in mind, Zhang nglong directly set up a stall, but only to buy things and not to sell.
He’d pay 1,000 starstones for each fragnt of a perfect creature’s weapon, no matter how many there were!
Imdiately, a large crowd gathered. Despite the weapon’s sturdiness, it wasn’t as handy for those martial artists compared to their usual weapons, so they didn’t care about the fragnts at all.
The basic price for those things ranged from 300 to 500, and 1,000 each was basically a large bounty price.
No one expected that soone would be buying such junk!
