Trade Secret Realm.
Mike looked at Foreskin and asked in a serious tone, "What's the cheapest price for the items on this list?"
The list Mike handed over contained the materials needed to maintain the Force of Nature at SSS-grade.
These materials were top-tier, and only by investing them into a piece of equipnt could it have such extraordinary attributes!
"550,000 Lord rits, no less!"
Mike had just over 400,000, leaving a significant shortfall.
"Killing a nine-tier demon Lord rewards 36,000. Where am I going to find 3 or 4 nine-tier demon Lords to kill..."
Mike began calculating what else he could sell for money.
"If I advance the next month's output from the Mysterious Mine, how much can I get?"
"At most, you can advance 80,000 Lord rits. Given your credit and status, you can get a loan of 5,000 Lord rits..."
Foreskin, like a professional financial personal assistant, helped Mike with the calculations, showing great proficiency.
Finally, Foreskin summarized, "After mortgaging everything except the SSS-grade equipnt, you're still short about 8,000 Lord rits."
Mike rolled his eyes.
Good grief, to unlock the Force of Nature's restricted state, he had to bet everything he owned!
What a disaster! When will sothing good happen to fix this ss?
"By the way, Mike, there's news from the auction house."
Foreskin suddenly rembered and said,
"An anonymous user bid 1 million Lord rits for the stone tablet you consigned. He wants to negotiate a private discount deal."
"What the heck?"
Soone actually bid 1 million Lord rits for that useless thing?
Mike was stunned and quickly shook his head, saying,
"I can't take that money. Selling a stone tablet for 1 million Lord rits is too much."
Even Mike had his limits.
Foreskin was slightly surprised. Was this the sa Fourth Bro he knew?
"Not everyone is Maxen or Shadow Nine."
Mike shrugged helplessly,
"Those two have vast fortunes. Honestly, does money even matter to them? Fleecing them a bit is fine, but I can't fleece a stranger for 1 million Lord rits."
Even Mike could show a glimr of humanity at tis.
Still worried about money, Mike casually asked, "By the way, who was the fool who bid 1 million Lord rits?"
Foreskin shook his head, "Sorry, I can't reveal the Supre Son's true identity." "Wait!"
Mike perked up, suddenly energized, "I've changed my mind!"
He quickly said,
"Send a ssage to Maxen-I an, the anonymous user-offering a 40% discount for cash!"
Mike's auction was originally set for 7 days.
Even if the 1 million Lord rits bid succeeded, Mike would have to wait 7 days to get the money.
A private discount deal ant Maxen would spend less, and Mike would get cash to solve his imdiate problem.
A win-win!
"Alright."
Foreskin operated the system for a mont, then looked up at Mike and nodded,
"He agreed. The money will be in your account soon."
Mike suddenly spoke,
"Send one more ssage to him for ."
Foreskin followed Mike's instructions and sent the ssage.
...
First Abyss.
At the poker table, the Fifth Demon God yawned, feeling sleepy.
He didn't want to sleep!
Not at all!
"Please, soone be kind and kill !"
Maxen, in a bad mood, swung Dorakos, smashing it against the Fifth Demon God's head a few
tis.
"Feeling better now?"
Maxen shouted as he hit.
Suddenly, his Trade Secret Realm pass buzzed with a ssage.
"Private deal, 40% discount?"
Maxen was stunned and imdiately agreed!
This way, he could save 400,000 Lord rits.
In the Mystic Market auction, once you bid, you must pay.
No one dared to default.
The boss behind the Mystic Market was very reasonable.
If you broke the rules, he'd teach you what rules were.
As he paid, Maxen laughed heartily,
"Looks like Thor didn't get that 600,000!"
In his mind, Thor would never save him 400,000.
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
This wasn't sothing Thor would do!
In other words, the stone tablet was listed by Calderon or soone close to him!
The 600,000 was a tribute to Calderon.
As long as it didn't go to Thor, he'd rather feed it to the dogs!
Maxen felt relieved!
Soon, a new ssage appeared on his Trade Secret Realm pass.
Mystic Market Manager [Foreskin]: The seller asked to pass on a ssage
Mystic Market Manager [Foreskin]: Dorakos is free for you
Maxen's expression froze again, his whole body nearly petrified.
He looked at the Dorakos in his hand, then at the chat log.
Maxen suddenly said, "If I told you this Dorakos cost 600,000 Lord rits, would you believe
?"
The Archdemon and the Fifth Demon God both laughed.
"Are you stupid? 600,000 Lord rits for an SS-grade item..."
The Fifth Demon God didn't finish his sentence before Dorakos smashed down again.
This ti, it carried Maxen's anger and frustration, its power ten tis greater!
Throughout the First Abyss, Maxen's repeated roars echoed,
"Six hundred thousand! That's Six hundred thousand Lord rits!"
....
"Ding-"
"Your Mystic Market account has received 600,000 Lord rits!"
The sound of money arriving is always a delight!
As he accepted the 600,000, Mike made a ntal note.
"Maxen has at least 400,000, and Master Fool has 600,000..."
He'd eventually get that 1 million from them, and figuring out how to spend it would be a
happy problem.
The money had just arrived and was already spent.
With the materials in hand, Mike greeted Foreskin and returned to his private space, handing
over the materials worth 550,000 Lord rits to Master Fool.
Mike said fiercely, "If there's another problem this ti, don't even think about going back to
the abyss!" Master Fool snorted, not backing down, "As if you ever planned to let go back!"
Mike was speechless.
Master Fool estimated it would take 3 hours at the fastest, 12 hours at the slowest, to fix the
Force of Nature.
Once everything was confird, Mike left the private space and returned to Thor's refresh
point-the restroom.
...
Restroom.
Mike looked at the Decoy Doll sitting on the floor drinking toilet water, deep in thought.
"Shadow Nine, I asked you to watch the decoy, and this is what you did?"
Shadow Nine, busy recording, put away the camcorder.
Then, in a surprised tone, Shadow Nine said,
"Thor, why are you sitting on the floor? Get up, it's dirty!"
Mike: ...
Is the floor being dirty really the issue?
Isn't the toilet dirtier?!
This Decoy Doll is useless!
With the Force of Nature issue settled,
Mike only needed to wait for the second match with All-Arican Boy Calderon.
...
2 PM.
C Section Training Hall.
Mike waited and waited, but Calderon didn't show up.
Instead, Shadow Nine's voice echoed in his ear.
"Calderon is waiting for you in the n's restroom."
Mike: ???
Why wait for him in the restroom?
No choice, according to their agreent, the loser of the last match sets the rules for the next.
Calderon chose the restroom as the duel location, Mike had to accept it.
Mike moved towards the n's restroom.
The entire C section erupted!
Everyone realized what was about to happen!
Bad Woman had fought Thor twice in the C section restroom, and now Mike was going to fight
Thor!
Wherever Mike went, the crowd buzzed,
"Mike, interested in going to the restroom together?"
"I'll pay $100,000 for a spot!"
"Heh, $100,000 will only get you a standing ticket!"
Listening to the crowd, Mike's mouth twitched, unable to retort.
What kind of nonsense is this?
Why would anyone pay to go to the restroom with him? Politely declining the male students' offers, Mike had no interest in such things.
Looking at the female students with similar thoughts, Mike seriously said, "Next ti, for sure."
With that, Mike turned and entered the n's restroom.
As soon as he entered, several instructors stood at the restroom door, keeping everyone out.
From now on, the n's restroom in C section was a restricted area!
Anything involving Thor was taken very seriously. Several Chiefs guarded the area, and a Lord was on the way! Leaving the commotion behind, Mike arrived at Calderon's chosen battleground-the
restroom!
Just in ti, Mike overheard Calderon and Little Nine talking.
Little Nine asked innocently, "Brother, why are you fighting in the restroom?"
All-Arican Boy explained seriously,
"In the first fight, Thor specifically emphasized not fighting in the restroom.
The more the enemy avoids, the more they fear it!"
What?!
Mike never expected it to be for that reason!
