Chapter 105 Eve of the auction (1)
Feng Xiao's attention quickly scattered and he began looking at the post asking for equipment. After a while, he couldn't help sending a PM to Maniac.
"Maniac, how is the sale?"
"It's sold out."
"Oh, what? Sold out?"
"Yesterday, it only took three hours."
"Then why didn't you tell me!"
"You didn't ask."
"......Forget it, I won't lower myself to your level. What was the price set to?"
"200-300 gold coins for Bronze Equipment, 1000-2000 for Silver Equipment."
"Damn! So high, only you can set such a high price. Wait, people still bought it all at this price?"
Feng Xiao was surprised. A piece of Silver Equipment in a virtual game was sold for the same wage as a normal white collared worker and it was a piece of level 20 equipment that couldn't be worn for long.
"Not enough supply." Maniac simply gave these three words.
Feng Xiao was speechless. He didn't have Maniac sell everything at once because too many would make people misunderstand and he couldn't sell it at a high price.
However the demand for high level equipment in the Chinese server had surpassed his expectations.
Bronze and Silver Equipment were that hard to find? Feng Xiao couldn't help thinking this.
"Then how much money did you make yesterday?"
"237900 gold coins." Maniac calmly replied.
Damn, it's this easy to make money. Earning two hundred thousand just by playing a few days.
"If those people who work hard just to earn a few thousand dollars knew about this, they might try to come for my heart." As he closed his communication device, Feng Xiao couldn't help thinking this.
With the old man's "special care", Maniac bought the shop for eight hundred thousand, the restaurant for a million, and the auction hall was bigger, costing three million. He never thought that on the first day of the shop's business, it would earn back a fourth of its cost.
Thinking of the restaurant, Feng Xiao sent a PM to Xiao Tian.
"Xiao Tian, your family's Qing'er, she's still not out of the Beginner Village, right?"
"Hei, hei, boss, you're right."
Feng Xiao broke out in a sweat. This Qing'er was learning from Feng Yao, she had already been in the Beginner Village for over a week.
"But boss, she can come out tomorrow. When that time comes, hei, hei, you have to keep your word." Xiao Tian said with sly laughter.
"Che, when have I not kept my word, I'm just afraid she won't come. That's right, Xiao Tian, why hasn't there been any movement from your big sister?" Feng Xiao asked with a seemingly careless tone.
"My big sister….." Xiao Tian's voice became strange and he gave two fake coughs, "You know about her matters more than me, she went to do some quest yesterday. So if you want……"
"Oh, it's like that, goodbye." Feng Xiao quickly hung up and let out a sigh of relief.
Last time Feng Xiao lost his head and did something heaven defying with her, so he didn't look forward to seeing her again.
After he kept playing with the Swift Thunder Swallowing Beast for an hour, it was already 2 am.
"Xiao Tian, Xiao Bing, why haven't you logged off yet? Could it be that you want to learn from those maniacs who are on all day?" Feng Xiao called Xiao Tian and Chen Bing.
"Boss, it doesn't matter if we don't log off for a month with the gaming chamber. Moreover, with little sister Yao'er's help, our leveling speed really makes us unwilling to stop."
"Yao'er?" Feng Xiao knit his brows. He opened his friends list and found that "Yao Dreams of Loving Winds" really was still on.
"Yao'er, it's this late, why are you still online?" He thought that Feng Yao would have gone to sleep with Yang Xi Ruo after dinner, but he never thought that she had been in the game the entire time.
"Big brother…..I want to help you sooner." Feng Yao was very afraid of her big brother's anger, so she spoke in a nervous voice.
Feng Xiao was surprised. How could he not know what she was thinking, there was warmth and pain that filled his heart.
In the end, Feng Yao in front of Xiao Tian's incredibly unwilling eyes logged off with Feng Xiao to rest. Although one could replace sleep in the game, it wasn't as natural and fulfilling as real sleep.
Xiao Tian looked at Chen Bing and said in a helpless voice, "Want to keep going?"
With the help of Feng Yao's zither music, their leveling speed had increased by three times. In just five short hors, their level 20 experience bars had increased by half and they were about to level.
"Yes!" Chen Bing's words didn't have a trace of hesitation.
"Ha, ha, brothers really are alike." Xiao Tian laughed before charging at a Cyclops.
Feng Yao's zither did raise their efficiency, but they wouldn't let themselves become dependent on it. It's best if they didn't have it, they could slowly level up and train their minds and operation, comprehending the sword and water.
"Ice cube, are you still thinking about the water element matter?" Xiao Tiao dodged the right handed attack of a Cyclops while talking to Chen Bing.
Chen Bing gave a slight nod without looking up. He had watched the ice form in his hands countless times before throwing it at the Cyclops.
Waking up in the morning, Feng Xiao did his routine cycling of the Chaotic Art. In the end, he was disappointed since his aura didn't change at all. Although the Chaotic Art could release chaotic energy, releasing energy was different from flowing energy, they were on completely different levels.
When he entered the game, it was already past nine. Facing the Swift Thunder Swallowing Beasts, he still had a Time Domain, three Space Gates, and two Asura Yama Waves left.
"Ai, my head hurt."
The large enticement of being granted territory and the threat of losing the Heavenly Dragon Secret Envoy Token made him unwilling to give up this quest.
"Boss, you're on. Where's little sister Yao'er?" Xiao Tian called out.
"She's buying groceries, she'll be back soon."
"Oh!" Xiao Tian relaxed before saying in a strange voice, "Boss, my Qing'er is here and she just changed Jobs."
"Oh, have her find Maniac, he'll know what to do." Feng Xiao was thinking about how to deal with the Swift Thunder Swallowing Beasts, so he didn't care about this matter.
Xiao Tian casually replied before hanging up.
Feng Xiao began riding Xiao Bai around the Stalactite Cave, finding chances when the Swift Thunder Swallowing Beast left the cave.
For an entire day, the two Swift Thunder Swallowing Beasts only left twice. Feng Xiao failed both times and retreated without any success.
On the afternoon of the next day, Feng Xiao was sitting in the same place while hearing "minor character A and minor character B are getting married, holding a large wedding ceremony in the Heavenly Dragon Church at XX:XX……" and feeling very annoyed.
As long as one had money in «Rebirth», they could spend it to send a server message. Of course, it cost quite a bit and not many people could afford it.
The third day.
"......'Popular World' Restaurant has opened their doors and is buying all kinds of ingredients….."
Feng Xiao cursed the Swift Thunder Swallowing Beast. He had been secretly wandering around the Stalactite Cave for a day and it didn't move at all, even the little one didn't come out.
The fourth day.
Feng Xiao was about to cry because his quest was about to run out of time.
The fifth day.
The first thing Feng Xiao did when he logged on was crush a City Return Scroll to return to Heavenly Dragon Imperial City.
