Chapter 15: Baker Chamber of Commerce
"Please come inside!" Lu Ming, who had transformed into Andrews, walked into a chamber of commerce stationed in Summermore Fortress under the leadership of an attendant.
The Baker Chamber of Commerce, named after the founder of the Chamber of Commerce, is an inconspicuous small chamber of commerce among the countless chambers of commerce in Summermore Fortress.
Baker was a standard Kryta Empire businessman, wearing a gray melon cap, and his short stature couldn't hide his shrewd eyes.
As soon as he saw Lu Ming coming in wearing the garrison armor, Baker's eyes told him that a big deal was coming.
The Baker Chamber of Commerce, which usually mainly targets civilians, rarely has extraordinary people visit.
All members of the garrison are possessors of extraordinary power. As long as they see this layer of armor, it is enough for the shrewd Baker to welcome it with all their strength.
"Dear guest, what do you need?" The voice was flattering but not annoying.
"Do you have shimmering dust here?" Lu Ming asked one of the mission items.
How could the Baker Chamber of Commerce, which deals in daily necessities, have supernatural items, but Baker still replied very quickly: "Yes, but in terms of price."
"You also know that the shimmering floating dust is the main material to confuse the earth element outside the city, so it will be more expensive."
"How much is it more expensive?" Lu Ming looked at Baker with a half-smile.
Baker, who didn't seem to notice Lu Ming's expression, replied: "The usual price is 10 Jinnars per standard share."
"But now because of the defense of the city, each standard share is 15 kinnars."
"Well, is there any rotten grass in the swamp?" Lu Ming asked the next question noncommittally.
"The rotten grass in the swamp of the corpse field?" Baker was slightly surprised.
Although Baker himself was not a transcendent, as a businessman, he knew very well about the famous corpse field swamp.
There is a great danger hidden in the swamp of the corpse field. Even a person with extraordinary ability may disappear inexplicably there, and even the bones cannot be found.
However, there are a lot of spiritual energy materials in it. Attracted by Jinnar, successive expedition teams plunged into the vast corpse field swamp.
Baker once fantasized about purchasing spiritual energy materials on the outskirts of the swamp and trading them with rich and powerful superhumans.
It's a pity that those who dared to enter the corpse field swamp were a group of desperadoes. Baker, who lacked force, gave up this fantasy after being looted several times.
The swamp rot is the most famous psionic material in the corpse field swamp.
Not only is it an important material for assassins to make secret medicines, but it also has the effect of changing the properties of psionic materials.
"The Swamp Rotting Grass Baker Chamber of Commerce does not have it here. Even if you go to other branches to mobilize it, it will be very difficult. And the price is extremely high!"
After hearing this material, Baker didn't even dare to fool around. People who can afford this material are not something a small businessman like him can offend.
Baker felt a little uneasy when he remembered that he had guaranteed that there would be shimmering dust before.
"It seems that you have not been gold
Gnar's eyes lit up completely. "
Lu Ming, who was backed by the garrison, went to inquire about the mission items after he knew them.
Although the shimmering dust is rare, and the price is not known to be affordable by Andrews' salary, it can be found anyway.
However, due to the restriction of the place of production and the wide range of uses of swamp rot, the price is already sky-high. According to the standard of the system, the price can reach 100 kinnars.
The last shaman scepter can only be obtained by shamans who kill the centaur tribe.
Each shaman scepter is the inheritance treasure of the centaur tribe, and it is an important medium for shamans to cast their skills.
To paraphrase a sentence is: the stick is in the person, and the stick is broken and the person is dead.
The shaman scepter is not very useful to human beings, it is more for collecting, to show that the owner has killed the evil centaur shaman.
Because of the strength of shamans and collectors, shaman scepters that are wandering outside are extremely rare, and they are priceless.
This is also the reason why Lu Ming found the Baker Chamber of Commerce.
An inconspicuous small chamber of commerce, but the leader is quite knowledgeable, and he has hanged around in the outskirts of the corpse field swamp.
As long as you find enough temptations, it is enough for the two parties to reach a cooperation intention.
"President Baker, I want the shimmering dust and swamp rot we just mentioned!"
"And add the shaman's scepter."
"And I wouldn't give even a single brass sope."
Baker, who quietly listened to Lu Ming's words, was not angry, and said bluntly: "Then what can you give?"
"Are you not afraid that I will directly rob your chamber of commerce?"
"Although my Baker Chamber of Commerce has some value, it is far worse than what you said."
"Even if you sold the entire Baker Chamber of Commerce for two standard portions of swamp rot."
Lu Ming looked at the eloquent Baker: "I have a legendary item that can increase lifespan."
"what!"
Baker, who was still full of confidence before, had a look of disbelief.
"Increased lifespan?"
"How is it possible? I don't mean to look down on you. As an ordinary guard like you, how can you come into contact with life-increasing items?"
"It can only be added by one month."
Lu Ming looked at Baker, who was rolling his eyes, with a half-smile: "President Baker can also try to snatch it from me, or spread the news."
"Please don't get me wrong, what are your conditions for selling this legendary item?" Baker's mind became active.
The soldier in the garrison opposite may be just a pawn, or the others are none of his business.
The most important thing is how to get this item, or the right to sell this item.
With such an item, his Baker Chamber of Commerce will soar into the sky, transforming from a small chamber of commerce for ordinary people into a large chamber of commerce for extraordinary people.
As for killing people and seizing treasures, even thinking about it, such a precious item would not be carried with him.
Moreover, I am an ordinary person, and the other party is an extraordinary person, so robbing him is simply asking for death.
"I can give you the right to sell it, and the price is three copies each of Twilight Dust, Swamp Rot Grass, and Shaman Scepter."
"If you can provide more materials, we may be able to cooperate more closely in the future."
Lu Ming, who wanted to give a commission, thought that the spirit key would charge 50% of the transaction fee, and the majority of the transaction income would be deducted by the spirit key to upgrade the quaggan hut.
After all the calculations, if I really want to give a commission, Baker worked hard, maybe Lu Ming's own harvest is not enough to pay the commission.
Anyway, the place that needs to be covered up now is Blue Star. On Tianwaitian's side, the architectural style is the same, and extraordinary people are more common.
There should be very few people like Liu Sandao who came to the door because of jealousy.
More importantly, Lu Ming couldn't buy these materials himself if he had money.
Lu Ming, who was so tight, had a small calculation in his heart. He gave Baker a right to sell because he had no other valuable items, and he didn't have enough channels and security guarantees.
Chapter No.16: Battle of the Awakened 1
In the Quaggan Hut, after Lu Ming took Baker to inspect the one-month lifespan condensed into a ball of light, Baker, an ordinary person, could detect the vitality contained in it.
After Beck left without doubt, Lu Ming gave him seven days to prepare. After seven days, no matter what the price is, as long as it is higher than the minimum price of the system, Lu Ming will sell the life light sphere.
The problem with Blue Star is not obvious yet. When there are more and more awakened people and the men in black organization strengthens the management of City D, the chances of the Quaggan Hut being discovered will increase exponentially.
Lu Ming couldn't help hesitating, the sooner he can get the skin of the quaggan hut, the better.
If it weren't for the desire to keep some more money, Lu Ming would have liked to sell this month's life balls now.
In order to prevent Baker from having bad thoughts, Lu Ming directly closed the extraterrestrial star gate of Quaggan Hut temporarily.
And there is no trace of the Quaggan Hut that appeared inexplicably in this world.
Lu Ming returned to Blue Star again, and first went to the base organized by the men in black to report to Dianmao.
With Shi An's active care, Lu Ming is now really like an old fritter after opening the door to retire in the men in black organization.
If you don't do the work, you will receive your salary.
For example, now, when Lu Ming came out of the base, he was still holding a handful of cash in his hand.
This was the first salary Lu Ming received after joining the Men in Black Organization.
And he also specifically stated that he wanted cash. Lu Ming, who had been deducted from the spirit key all the time, thought, this time he will hold on to it so tightly, it depends on what you do, and there are so many outsiders watching.
Lu Ming didn't believe that the system would be directly exposed for such a small amount of money.
"Small, too young."
A stack of slightly heavy cash turned into a few thin notes under the eyes of everyone.
And everyone turned a blind eye.
"Lingkey, can you show some face?" Lu Ming complained.
The money in the hand of "Shua" has decreased by two again, and there are only less than 10...
"I'm going, Master Spirit Key, I was wrong!"
"Give me back my hard-earned money!"
However, what is lost is lost after all. No matter what good things Lu Ming said, the notes in his hand still did not increase.
Although the weather was still very hot, Lu Ming felt chills all over his body.
"My dearest Grandpa Mao, how heartbroken I am to lose you."
Even though he knew it was useless, Lu Ming still held the red banknotes in his hand even tighter.
Lu Ming, who snatched food from Kududu's mouth every day, finally had a chance to eat real meat.
After nearly twenty days of fresh fish, Lu Ming felt that he was about to become a quagan.
He wants to eat meat, and he wants to eat a lot of meat!
Excitedly, he found a restaurant that looked good. Lu Ming quickly looked through the menu. It was the money in his pocket that made Lu Ming lack confidence.
After ordering a large pot of braised pork, Lu Ming paid attention to his surroundings.
Before the coming of the Heavenly Gate, in restaurants like this, when eating, people talked about all kinds of topics, whether it was business or relationship, friends or colleagues, most of them were unnutritious nonsense.
But now, the topic is somewhat unified.It's been a while since the Awakened appeared.
The awakened ones have also been recognized by various forces.It is an extremely honorable thing to be an Awakened today.
Not only is there a classification of psionic affinity that most people agree with on the Internet, but psionic testers have also been launched in major cities.
Although most of the people's affinity is still below 30, even if it reaches above 30, some people's physical fitness is only slightly enhanced, breaking through the standard human attribute upper limit of 10.
But the strength is limited, if it is the previous Blue Star, it may make people amazed, this is a strong man, a master of martial arts.
After the current research by major organizations, a tacit consensus has been reached, that those with psionic affinity below 50 have almost no potential for cultivation.
Even if there is no skill after awakening, the affinity of psionic energy must be above 50, and only when it reaches level D can it have enough potential.
And this part of people, D-level to B-level are the recognized masters of extraordinary abilities, and they are also the main members of major organizations.
"Why!" While Lu Ming was feasting, accompanied by the sound of slapping the table, a roar rang out.
The one who made the sound was a tall young man who was dressed very stylishly.
"I have a psionic affinity of 49, why not me!"
The young man yelled into the phone, and everyone who looked over turned their heads. Since the appearance of psionic affinity classification, this kind of thing has happened more often.
People who eat melons say that this kind of melon has no taste after eating.
It seems that this is a person who is treated differently because of his low power affinity.
He just didn't know whether the Awakened organization the young man wanted to join or the girl he admired was on the phone.
Anyway, the people on the other side look down on his affinity.
"It's a crime..." Lu Ming sighed, and continued to lower his head to deal with the braised pork in front of him.
Although the affinity test was created by Lu Ming, Lu Ming didn't feel guilty at all. Why do you want such a high affinity? I, the founder, have zero affinity. What did I say?
"The young man has no concentration." The whispering voice made the young man who was barely quiet become manic again.
"what are you guys saying!"
"You losers who don't even have an affinity level of 30 dare to look down on me!"
As soon as the words fell, the marble dining table was lifted by the young man and thrown towards the crowd.
And Lu Ming, who lowered his head and hated the braised pork, happened to be in this crowd. Although Lu Ming, who had only acquired the ability to transform, had fooled a few people in the world of Tianwaitian.
But it was also relying on his identity and Kududu to survive, and now such a huge rock is on the top.
Lu Ming, who only unlocked his mental power after awakening, couldn't think of a solution for a while, and could only watch the marble slowly approaching in his sight.
But the body couldn't react.
"Crack" with a loud noise.
A block of ice the size of the table shattered the marble.
Except for a few diners whose noses and faces were bruised and swollen by a few large gravels and ice cubes, the others were just a little embarrassed and did not suffer any injuries.
"The man in black, Liu Chengjun, is here!"
"The people leave quickly."
With a soft shout, the one who stopped the young man was actually a heroic woman who looked a little younger than that young man.
Following the evacuated crowd, Lu Ming arrived at the door and stood by the wall. This was the first time Lu Ming saw the battle between the awakened ones.
Although this will be a contest of great disparity in strength, Lu Ming still wants to know to what extent the awakened ones have exerted their extraordinary power in such a short period of time.
Kududu's battles before were all completely crushing, with pure attribute strength and no skill competition.
From Lu Ming's point of view, it was like a big man beating a child, nothing could be seen at all.
Now it's the Awakened fighting the Awakened, which is worth watching.
Chapter No.17: Battle of the Awakened 2
A huge ice cube quickly condensed in the air, and Lu Ming felt that the air around him was much drier.
The ice cubes exuding cold air smashed towards the mad youth with unrivaled momentum.
The sound of the wind far exceeds the previous marble table.
Seeing that he was invincible, the young man jumped horizontally and narrowly avoided the ice cubes that Liu Chengjun condensed.
Not only did he not escape, but instead he came over.
After awakening, he didn't acquire any skills, but his physical fitness got stronger than that of the skill owner.
When Liu Chengjun condensed the third piece of ice, the young man had already arrived in front of her.
A table leg that was unscrewed was about to hit Liu Chengjun's head.
Liu Chengjun with a cold face did not panic at all.
A thin layer of ice quickly spread on the ground, covering the entire restaurant.
The young man's feet were frozen tightly by ice cubes. Although Liu Chengjun's physical fitness was not as good as this young man's, he was not slow to hide.
Liu Chengjun, who opened the distance, once again manipulated the ice condensed in the air, intending to take down the youth in one fell swoop.
At this time, the young man actually smiled. Under Liu Chengjun's astonished gaze, a short arrow shot out from the young man's sleeve.
He actually carried a weapon with him, although it was not a modern firearm, but judging by the young man's forbearance, this short arrow must have deadly poison.
And Liu Chengjun, who had relaxed his vigilance, had no energy to dodge the short arrow at this time.
At the very moment, a stool flew obliquely from behind Liu Chengjun, just in time to block the short arrow.
The two were taken aback for a moment, and Lu Ming let out a sigh of relief: "It's so dangerous!"
Lu Ming also had no idea of being a hero to save the beauty. The reason why he made the move was that his high-strength mental power made Lu Ming discover some clues. When the young man was frozen, he realized that this was just a way to let Liu Chengjun relax his vigilance.
And Lu Ming threw the chair and hit the short arrow. It can also be said that the young man's short arrow hit the chair thrown by Lu Ming.
Now there are only three people in the restaurant, Young Man, Liu Chengjun and Lu Ming.
If Liu Chengjun was killed by the youth under such circumstances, there is a high probability that Lu Ming, a half-awakened person, would be killed together. This is something that has to be done.
"If you want to blame it, blame yourself for watching the show..." Lu Ming thought in his heart.
Seeing that both of them were looking at him, Lu Ming said with a little embarrassment: "You guys continue? I just left first."
"You bastard who doesn't know what to do!" The young man broke free from the ice that froze his feet, regardless of Liu Chengjun's attack on Lu Ming.
"Kazizi" the sound of the ice rapidly freezing echoed in the restaurant.
Liu Chengjun, who had recovered, fully manipulated her awakened skills, and layers of ice crystals covered the young man's body.
With a short distance of more than ten meters, the young man stopped in front of Lu Ming and froze into a huge ice sculpture.
"Get out of here quickly." Liu Chengjun said to Lu Ming who was still watching the play with difficulty.
"He's been frozen..." Before Lu Ming finished speaking, he saw the frozen young man shatter the ice around him again.
Because Liu Chengjun's skills were broken, he was injured first, spit out a mouthful of blood, and his face quickly turned pale.
"What black flag! What affinity rating!"
"It's all just your conspiracy!"
The young man who saw Liu Chengjun vomiting blood shouted: "I am the real strong!"
He was covered in bruises from the cold, but he didn't feel weak at all. Facts have proved that even if the so-called psychic affinity is low, it doesn't mean that his combat power is low.
So what if he didn't have the awakening skills, but the psionic power greatly strengthened his physical fitness, just like this powerful fist.
The young man was about to beat Lu Ming to death, but in front of another man in black who had awakened his skills, he wanted to break the shackles of affinity!
In Lu Ming's eyes, the fist was constantly enlarged, and under the feeling of high mental strength, the movement was like a slow-moving video.
But Lu Ming, whose reaction speed has not been strengthened, can see clearly the opponent's fist, but he can't dodge this simple heavy punch.
Before his neck was broken, Lu Ming tilted his body reluctantly, and his fist brushed against Lu Ming's right shoulder.
"Bang" Lu Ming, who was knocked away, felt a sharp pain in his right shoulder. He subconsciously raised his hand and found that the bones in his right hand had been shattered by the punch.
And the young man strolled towards Lu Ming again: "If you can escape my punch, you, a waste who is not even an awakened person, can be proud."
"Remember, the one who killed you is..."
"boom!"
The young man's words were abruptly interrupted by the sound of a sniper, the young man standing in front of Lu Ming.
One moment he was still alive and kicking, wanting to kill people and make history, but the next moment his head was blasted to pieces by a sniper bullet.
Lu Ming, who was covered in blood, stared blankly at the young man who fell to the ground. Although the awakened person is beyond ordinary people, he is still human after all. Modern weapons are not as weak as he thought!
The support is provided by the affiliated guards of the Men in Black organization. Now that there are more and more awakened people, all the management of extraordinary power belongs to the Men in Black organization.
An organization that had been established for less than a month quickly expanded.
In addition to the awakened ones, there are many guards with modern weapons in the men in black organization. Coordinated operations are gradually taking shape in the vision of the man in black boss Wang Ze.
Awakened people with skills are research-oriented and cutting-edge talents, while Awakened people with no skills and below D-level are more likely to be sent to the subordinate guards to serve as squad leaders.
After getting acquainted with Liu Chengjun, Lu Ming returned to the Quaggan Hut after receiving treatment from the men in black medical team.
There is a quaggan cub that needs to be fed at home, so Lu Ming cannot accept long-term hospital treatment.
I can only take time to visit the medical team every day.
Although he was injured all over watching the excitement, Lu Ming's focus was on the fact that people with low psychic affinity can suppress people with high affinity.
In other words, the psychic affinity obtained as a black flag is really just a potential reference value, and does not represent the real combat power.
Without awakening skills, psionic energy will strengthen the body stronger, which means that the current strategy of the major awakened organizations to exclude awakened people below D level is wrong.
But the young man who was able to suppress Liu Chengjun and shatter the ice that froze his whole body could not even resist in the face of sniper bullets.
Lu Ming's 20-point mental power did not observe the trajectory of the bullet.
In terms of power, there are many modern weapons that surpass sniper bullets.
Although the Awakened appeared on a large scale, the low-key place seemed to be low-key.
There is also the question of one's own attributes, being able to keenly perceive the details missed by others, and seeing other people's actions clearly, but there is no way to avoid it.
This is an extremely obvious shortcoming of Lu Ming. It seems that he must find a way to increase various attributes.
Chapter 18: Skins without upgrades
Time passed, and within a few days after being attacked, Lu Ming was questioned many times by the investigation department of the Men in Black organization.
Fortunately, Lu Ming himself is a logistics member of the Men in Black organization, and has Liu Chengjun's certificate.
Lu Ming was only routinely questioned, and was not turned upside down.
The conclusion and the facts finally matched up, but it happened just at the right time, and it was a little unlucky.
For this reason, the Men in Black organization also allocated a large period of time for Lu Ming to spend on sick leave and recuperation.
The genuine department is the genuine department, and all aspects are considered comprehensively, so that members will not have any worries.
Just like now that Lu Ming is going to enter the world of Tianwaitian again, there is no need to worry about the problem of the next period of time.
There is no need to give up a secure identity and income.
Quaggan Hut has reappeared in Summermore Hold.
Lu Ming, who bears the identity of Andrews, soon saw the wanted warrant for Andrews on the street, and it disappeared for seven days. Andrews was successfully turned into a wanted criminal by Lu Ming...
Casually transformed into a public face, and dressed in coarse clothes common to commoners in Xia Moore, Lu Ming knocked on the door of the Baker Chamber of Commerce again.
In just seven days, the Baker Chamber of Commerce, which was originally unknown, made a big splash in Summermore Fortress.
There is a gossip circulating in the streets and alleys. The Baker Chamber of Commerce has obtained the right to sell a legendary item from a mysterious person.
Although the increase of a legendary item that can increase the lifespan of one month is not much, for items related to lifespan, even one day is enough to make people covet.
Being able to increase lifespan means that the item either contains extremely huge vitality, or it is a reward given by the gods to the favored ones.
Or a combination of both, this thing is just an extra month of life for ordinary people, but for the strong it is to study higher-level power or prolong the already short life.
"No one thinks their life is too long!" Baker under the melon skin hat clamored, and hired countless people to spread the news of this item.
If it weren't for the fact that the centaur was attacking the Xiamoor fortress now.Baker is even planning to take a trip to the distant city of Divinity.
Only in the magnificent capital built by all mankind, can this legendary item named "Tears of Life" have the greatest effect.
"It's a pity..." Baker sighed, and continued to promote the auction of Tears of Life.
In order to ensure the safety and fairness of the auction, Baker also spent a huge amount of money to entrust the most prestigious Black Lion Chamber of Commerce to cooperate in this auction.
"President! A stranger asked me to bring you a sentence, are those three things ready?"
"Invite that person in quickly." Although Baker didn't know why the replacement was made, he knew three things and still asked the question like this.
It must be the accomplice of the member of the garrison last time, and even the person who claimed to be Andrews last time, Baker had someone check it out.
He is a marginalized and excluded garrison soldier who mysteriously disappeared after meeting Baker.
This was a mysterious force, and Baker knew very well that he couldn't afford to offend such a force, and he cared about the three items as much as promoting Tears of Life.
Departing from the Baker Chamber of Commerce, the two came to the Quaggan Lodge again.
Baker took out Shimmer Dust, Swamp Rot Grass, and Shaman Scepter in turn from a suitcase.
There are three copies of each of the three items.
Not to mention the shimmering floating dust, it is just some dust that emits a slight white light. Lu Ming has seen scattered ones in the garrison, so he is not surprised.
The rotten grass in the swamp was carefully packed in three crystal bottles by Baker. Through the crystal clear crystal, Lu Ming could see three rotten grasses that looked like weeds, exuding a strong black air, as if even the bottles All will be reduced to dust under long-term erosion.
Finally, there are three shaman scepters with long and short arms. A strange creature is woven on a rough wooden stick with unknown weeds, and the creatures woven on the three scepters are also different.
At first glance, these are three wooden sticks played by children, and they have no use value for human supernatural beings. Only in the hands of the centaur who created them can they gain the power of shamanism.
"This is what you want." Baker said to Lu Ming humbly.
"I wonder when are you going to sell the tears of your life?"
Both eyes stared at Lu Ming expectantly, for fear that Lu Ming would regret it.
"Don't worry, as agreed, we will sell the Tears of Life tonight."
"You have to close the security issue!"
Baker smiled obsequiously: "No problem, I invited people from the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce branch to maintain order!"
"With the brand and strength of the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce, no one dares to make a move!"
After hearing Baker's promise, Lu Ming said, "Take it." He threw the tears of life on the shelf to Baker. "Send the payment to the store later!"
"Or, you can also choose to be hunted down by me!" Lu Ming pretended to be majestic and threatened.
After all, money touches people's hearts, and bad thoughts are strangled in the cradle.
"Don't worry, all I ask is a name!"
"Tomorrow morning, be sure to fill your shop with kinnar!"
Seeing Baker who went out with the Tears of Life, Lu Ming now has time to pay attention to the Quaggan Hut's skin mission.
For a remote fortress like Summermoor in seven days, it is still difficult to collect three items.
Although Baker only collected a whole set, Lu Ming was already satisfied. The second set that Baker had expected was embarrassingly said before that the rotten grass and the scepter were really priceless.
In Lu Ming's confirmation sound, the electronic pitch of the spirit key sounded on time.
"Congratulations to the host for completing the task of changing the appearance of the quaggan hut."
"Please choose one of the following three appearances as the appearance reward for Quaggan Hut."
Three stereoscopic images appeared in front of Lu Ming's eyes amidst the voice of the spirit key.
The one on the left looks like a miniature version of the Summermore Fortress, with towering walls, strong gates, and orderly arrays of war equipment...
The one in the middle is in the form of a small rural house in the suburbs. The white walls and concrete columns imitate the architectural style of Europe...
The one on the right is still the dilapidated grocery store, it doesn't look like it has changed at all...
All three forms hide the material properties of the quaggan hut, and will cause creatures passing by the quaggan hut to ignore the quaggan hut inadvertently.
Looking at the styles of the three grocery stores, the one I like the most is the shrunken version of Fort Summermore, which is not only majestic and domineering, but also very practical. However, as the gate of heaven continues to open, Fort Summermore will sooner or later be destroyed by the Blue Stars. Know, pass!
The small bungalow in the middle is okay, but it looks a bit too high-profile, and it's hard to explain if Shitou comes to visit.
In the end, Lu Ming, who was picking and choosing, still pinched his nose and chose the original appearance of the grocery store, keeping a low profile if he could.
Chapter 19: Summermoor Auction 1
That night, in an underground building in Xia Moore, countless people with extraordinary abilities gathered here.
Even if the earth elements outside the city are still throwing boulders into the fortress, they still can't stop people's desire for tears of life.
Many people clearly know that they are incapable of obtaining the Tears of Life, but being able to witness this legendary item is something worth boasting about.
If someone challenges the authority of the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce, there may be a chance to find out.
In the lively atmosphere, Lu Ming also mixed in the crowd, and entered a VIP box with the admission ticket given by Baker.
As the first item sold in the grocery store, Lu Ming was still very worried about the auction of Tears of Life, and he had no real countermeasures against Baker Lu Ming, so he could only scare him.
If you don't come and stare at it, your heart will be too big.
And with the finale of Tears of Life, many precious items appeared in this auction co-organized by the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce.
I heard that there is also an instrument of destruction, whose value is not much less than the tears of life.
"Everyone, be quiet, I, Baker, will host this special auction of Tears of Life."
Baker, who was standing on the stage, changed out of his old-fashioned melon hat today, and put on an aristocratic attire. The gold thread on the border and the embellished gems can be regarded as a very valuable suit.
It's a pity that it looks a bit unflattering on the short Baker, but it doesn't hinder Baker's high spirits at all.
In front of the many powers in Fortress Summermore, being able to show his face in front of the supernatural beings who came here for the name and the nobles from the city of God's Blessing will be a great help to the Baker Chamber of Commerce in the future.
For an old-faced businessman, this is an intangible asset, even more precious than the tears of life itself. This is why Baker is willing to provide Lu Ming with free sales services and return mission items.
"Ahem..." Baker coughed, and when the audience calmed down, he said in a salesman's tone, "Tears of Life will be auctioned at the end. First, let's take a look at other precious items."
"Please invite the first lot, the steam wand."
The two hostesses came to the stage holding a staff about two meters long, but this staff was different from what most people imagined.
The head of the staff is a metal shell the size of a skull. Layers of gears can be seen in the gaps that are constantly rotating, and occasionally some water vapor is emitted from the head of the staff.
"This is a powerful weapon from the distant kingdom of flames, which can greatly increase the power of fire and air skills."
"There is also an additional skill of scorching breath."
"The starting price is 500 kinnars, and each increase must not be less than 10 kinnars."
After all, Baker also summoned a guard. Under the use of the guard, countless scorching steam spewed out from the head of the stick, like a sharp sword, and easily killed a demonstration beast.
"Good stuff." Lu Ming sighed in the VIP box: "It's so powerful without awakening and learning any skills."
"Although it seems to be just extremely high water vapor, with Blue Star's technological level, there is definitely no way to reduce such a device to the size of a staff, and the energy consumed is still spiritual energy."
Seeing the steam wand, Lu Ming felt a little moved, and really wanted to end up participating in the bidding, but he was short of money, so he could only forcefully suppress his desire to buy.
In the fierce competition, Lu Ming watched helplessly as a mysterious man covered in robes took away the steam wand at a price of 700 kinaals.
The next lot also came into play in the regret that the steam wand was bought. This is a captured Mordir centaur...
Items came up and down one by one, most of the items were extremely rare and were bought by the participants at a premium.
There are also some less precious items that have failed to be auctioned, such as the Modir centaur tribe that has surrounded the Xiamoor Fortress.
The people in the fortress only have murderous intentions for centaurs, and will not spend money to buy them.
People from other places have to consider how to take the centaur away from the Xiamoor Fortress. After all, the army is guarding the mirror, and it is impossible to take the centaur away without a master above the fourth rank.
As for the superhumans who came to participate in the auction this time, the strongest one was only at the third level, so it would be no problem at all to let him leave by himself.
If you bring a centaur that keeps resisting, it will be hanging, maybe you will be trapped in it.
Among the many auction items, there was one item that aroused Lu Ming's great interest, even more coveted by Lu Ming than the steam wand.
"Golden Fruit!"
"After the superhumans below the first level eat it, all aspects of their physical fitness will reach the limit of those below the first level in a very short period of time, which can make up for the shortcomings of the superhumans below the first level."
For those who have just come into contact with extraordinary power, this is no less than an artifact.
It's a pity that it's only useful for people below the first level. People who have reached the first level will have no effect after eating it. It's just a relatively sweet fruit.
Moreover, the shelf life of the golden fruit is capped at one month, even if you want to buy it as a family heirloom, you can't do it.
As a result, although the appearance of this golden fruit caused a great sensation, it did not lead to an extremely high price.
"This is what I want! Even if all the proceeds from Tears of Life go into it, and even if I owe a debt to the spirit spoon, I still want to buy this golden fruit."
Lu Ming has been criticizing that after his awakening, his physical fitness has not been strengthened at all, but now the hope of strengthening is in sight, so he called a waiter who was guarding outside the box and asked him to ask Baker to stop the auction.Come here temporarily.
After seeing Baker coming from the stage, Lu Ming said bluntly, "I want that golden fruit!"
Baker was surprised for a while, such a mysterious organization still needs golden fruit?But he still replied obediently, "The golden fruit is provided by the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce. There is no way to keep it for you, but you can take pictures yourself."
"No money!" Lu Ming replied confidently.
"You have tears of life waiting for the auction. You can bid directly for this golden fruit, and the price difference will be deducted from your reward at that time!"
After Baker returned to the stage in a hurry, Lu Ming directly raised the price of the golden fruit that had been slowly auctioned by 500 kinnars.
"1500 kinnars!" Lu Ming shouted extremely firmly, his words were full of confidence in the golden fruit.
"1600 kinnars." A new quotation came from a private room.
Seeing that someone was making trouble, Lu Ming quoted again: "2000 kinnars!"
"2100 ginnars."
"3000 quinnars!" Lu Ming felt his heart bleed. 3000 quinnars may not sound like much, but considering that 1 ginnar can be exchanged for 10 silver tala or 1000 copper pesos, this statistic is A little big.
According to Lu Ming's judgment, the purchasing power of the copper peso is comparable to that of the American knife dollar on Blue Star.
Chapter 20: Mask of Erosiona
"3100 Kinnar" the voice from another box continued to come.
There was also a woman's sharp voice: "Don't be shameless!"
Unmoved, Lu Ming continued to quote: "3500 gold!"
Others at the venue were startled and started discussing after hearing this offer.
Golden apples are precious, but they are limited in their usefulness and preservation methods, and for those who have survived a catastrophe, comprehensive development may not be as unique as it is.
The overall improvement of physical fitness to the limit below the first level is not as good as the benefits brought by far surpassing the first level such as strength or speed alone.
After all, omnipotence also means omnipotence, which is synonymous with mediocrity.
And the golden fruit that usually cost 2000 kinnars has already sold for a sky-high price of 3500 kinnars.
In the other box were a man and a woman, extremely richly dressed.
At this time, the woman wanted to continue bidding, but the man shook his head and whispered: "Ruth, tears of life are our goal."
"Leave enough funds to buy Tears of Life."
The woman called Ruth, whose originally beautiful face was full of viciousness, shouted to the outside: "If you offend me, then even if you kneel down and offer the golden fruit, you will not be able to survive, nor will you be able to die!"
"3500 Jinnar 3 times..."
"Congratulations to the guest in Box 6!"
After the man and woman did not compete, Lu Ming successfully took the golden fruit.
And it was quickly sent over by Baker.
As for offending someone?Lu Ming didn't care at all. Anyway, he was using a fabricated identity. If you have the ability, you can find me and talk about it.
For the first time, Lu Ming felt that the skill of transfiguration was so easy to use, and he was not afraid of being hated at all.
After receiving the tray brought by the waiter, a fruit the size of a strawberry stood in the center of the tray. The glittering golden color itself revealed an extraordinary atmosphere.
Without any hesitation, Lu Ming threw the golden fruit into his mouth in one gulp, and after chewing it only had a slightly sweet taste.
There is no such thing as the legendary Tiandibao that melts in the mouth, and it is a very normal food in terms of taste.
It was only after eating that bursts of heat radiated from the stomach.
It was like a round of fierce scorching sun was scorching the body.
The clothes on Lu Ming's body were carbonized little by little, and finally turned into ashes.
After enduring the roasting for more than 10 minutes, the intense high temperature slowly dropped.
At this time, Lu Ming had recovered his real appearance, his skin was covered with exfoliated dead skin, and even his hair was burnt to nothing.
Click on the long-lost personal attribute panel.

Wealth: 800 yuan, 10 silver Tala, quaggan hut.
Comments: I am bald, and I have become stronger!
Powerful, Lu Ming can confirm that he is stronger than any awakened person on Blue Star.
No matter which aspect has reached the peak at the current stage, as long as there is one more aspect that can break through, Lu Ming can successfully transfer to a first-tier professional.
According to the information that has been inquired over the past few days, no matter how the skills used by each person are ever-changing, they are all within the scope of the nine major occupations.
In the later stage, as long as you confirm which career to develop, after successfully changing jobs, you can get a skill again no matter what your affinity is.
You can also learn the popular skills of this profession. From then on, the awakened or transcendent will no longer only have monotonous attack methods.
Every time a level is raised, a skill will be obtained in the dark. According to legend, a superhuman can reach the ninth level at most, that is, he can obtain nine skills of his own.
People with high psychic affinity can awaken a skill before reaching the first level, and these people are stronger than ordinary extraordinary people.
Especially for those who have acquired innate skills, their skill levels will also increase as the master's rank increases.
If they can really become Ninth-level Transcendents, these people will have one more Ninth-level skill than others, which will greatly improve their strength.
After eating the golden fruit, Lu Ming also fell into a weak state. The so-called strong feeling is just the panel data.
Now, after Lu Ming re-transformed, he opened the door and asked the waiter to prepare a suit of clothes, water and food.
Although Lu Ming's illusion can make others unable to see the truth, but the fake is fake. Lu Ming, who is leaking all over his body, still feels uncomfortable, so he can only ask the waiter to prepare clothes.
As for water and food, it is necessary to replenish the body and restore physical strength.
At this time, more than half of the auction was in progress, and items marked as ruined utensils were also brought to the stage.
This is a mask depicting a weeping woman, with two lines of blood and tears in the eyes of the mask.
"Destroyer: 3-035, erosion mask." Baker's voice came serious.
"It is said that every piece of destruction equipment was created by chance after the world was destroyed. In addition to their various functions, they also have powerful negative effects."
"The classification is based on the initial number 0-4. The smaller the number, the higher the risk and the greater the use restriction."
"3-035, erosion mask, after wearing it, you can solidify into another person according to your own wishes, and other people around you will subconsciously recognize your identity."
"However, it is not recommended to wear it for more than one hour every 24 hours. Wearing it for a long time will gradually erode your personality by the mask, and it will induce you to commit suicide and become a cold corpse!"
After the brief introduction, Baker carefully moved away from the mask: "The starting price is 2000 kinnars, and each increase must not be less than 100 kinnars!"
After listening to the introduction, Lu Ming regained his indifference from his original interested look.
Not only is the ability similar to his own innate skills, but also the powerful negative effects make Lu Ming a little startled.
It actually controls the wearer, and wearing it for a long time will kill the wearer.
What kind of destructive tool is this? It's simply that I think I have too much money and a long life.
Lu Ming also learned about the term shattering equipment from Baker's introduction, and he must be very careful when encountering such items in the future. The ability is strange and extremely dangerous.
When Lu Ming was slandering, the auction suddenly became louder in the audience. The erosion mask, which was thought to be uninterested, was sought after by so many people, and the price was raised to 5000 kinnars in a short period of time.
Judging by the popularity of the bidding, this price is far from reaching the bottom line of these people's hearts.
Lu Ming reminisced about Baker's introduction to the mask, "You can solidify into another person according to your own wishes, and other people around you will also subconsciously recognize your identity."
This is much stronger than Lu Ming's change, it can directly replace the original owner!
Chapter 21: Tears of Life
After realizing the special nature of erosion masks, Lu Ming put away his contemptuous thoughts, but he is still not very interested in masks. One is that there is no need for them, and the other is that they are too dangerous.
Instead of fighting with the gang below, it's better to sit and watch the show.
In the tug-of-war of prices, the erosion mask was quickly raised to a high price of [-] kinnars.
Ten thousand gold coins, according to the weight of each Jinnar 10 grams, is a full 100 kilograms.
This weight was enough to crush Lu Ming before he could move, but now it was used to buy such a mask, which made Lu Ming sigh that rich people are rich people.
And after the price of [-] kinnars was announced, a few blushing Transcendents in the audience opened their mouths and finally said nothing.
The erosion mask was finally bought by a mysterious person in another box.
After the atmosphere created by the erosion mask, the second half of the auction became even more lively.
But most of the items are the items or raw materials of extraordinary professionals. Although Lu Ming, who can bid boldly, thought about it, he held back. They are not necessary items and there is no need to buy them at a premium at the auction.
And as the auction progressed, the last auction item: Tears of Life finally came to the stage.
Baker, who was the nominal seller, became even more excited.
"Presumably everyone here, most of them are here for the next lot."
"This is also the last lot in this auction"
"Tears of life!" With Baker's roar, a display cabinet made of crystal slowly rose in the middle of the table.
The tear of life filled with white light was carefully placed on the velvet cushion.
When the tears of life appeared, more than a dozen guards from the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce also came up to the stage, paying close attention to possible dangers around them.
"After the appraisal of Master Punk of the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce, it is confirmed that this tear of life not only has full vitality, but also ensures that everyone can gain a month's life after using it!"
"This means that the tears of life have the dual effects of vitality and law, and they are items bestowed by the gods before the Great Destruction!"
"The starting price: 1000 kinnars, each increase must not be less than [-] kinnars!"
"Hiss..." After Baker announced the starting price, a large number of participants took a breath.
This price far exceeds the starting price of the erosion mask, and is equal to the transaction price of the erosion mask.
And looking at a large group of powerful transcendents who are eager to try, everyone knows that the price will be raised soon.
"Ten thousand kinnars!"
"Fifteen thousand guineas." The No.2 bidder directly increased the price by one-third.
But that doesn't deter people interested in tears of life in the slightest.
Wayans, a third-order transcendent who was originally holding a one-month lifespan as a dispensable, became interested in it instantly after knowing that Tears of Life was blessed by the laws of the gods.
"Thirty thousand kinnars." As the strongest Transcendent in the audience, the wealth he possessed was beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Wayans gently quoted the price that made the audience quiet.
"Thirty-one thousand goldnars!" A mean female voice came, it was Ruth who had competed with Lu Ming for the golden fruit before.
"Huh? You want to argue with me?" Waynes, who was sitting in the hall, looked up at the box where Ruth was, and his questioning voice was full of oppression.
"Don't dare! But the tears of life are very important to my family of Magnus!"
"I also ask Mr. Waynes to hold your hand high." The man who was with Ruth explained aloud.
Wayans, a Tier [-] professional, is also a well-known figure in the Kryta Empire. It is rumored that he is only one step away from advancing to Tier [-], becoming an existence to be looked up to for life.
For such a character, Karl knew very well that the fallen Maxnus family had no strength to fight against.
"The Maxnus family? Then I won't suppress you." Waynes replied.
Before Ruth and Carl were happy, they went on to say, "Let's compete fairly, the highest bid wins!"
Waynes, who is also the heir of a big family, has never been short of money. Since they are all big nobles of the empire, then play with them.
And Ruth and Carl suddenly turned bitter. How can the declining nobleman compete for financial resources with the popular spicy chicken Waynes!
It's almost a losing battle.
But the need for tears of life forced the two of them to go all out and try.
When the two made up their minds, Wayans' indifferent voice came again: "Forty thousand kinnars."
There was no ups and downs in the tone, and it directly suppressed the noisy voice of the audience.
The audience who were still thinking about fishing in troubled waters were also frightened by Wayans' talented group.
After discussing with Ruth, Karl directly quoted their final price.
"Forty-six thousand guineas!"
"Fifty thousand kinnars." The indifferent voice seemed so ruthless, directly crushing the faith of the two of them.
In Baker's roar of confirmation, the tears of life finally fell to Wayans.
Just when Waynes was about to step forward to receive the tears of life, a voice came, almost the same as Waynes.
It seemed that Wayans hadn't come to the stage, but was still in the audience.
"Give me the tears of life." It was a middle-aged man wearing a mask with two lines of blood and tears.
And the mask is the erosion mask that was previously auctioned!
Facing the words of the middle-aged man, no one in the audience reacted.
Even Wayans himself subconsciously believed that the person in front of him was the one who took tears of life.
Seeing the tears of life that the middle-aged man approached step by step.
Lu Ming, who was watching the play, finally couldn't bear it anymore. He didn't know why the others didn't respond.
Everyone in the audience actually allowed a stranger to collect the tears of life, even the buyer Wayans was no exception.
You must know that Wayans has not paid the money yet, if this person really wants to take away the tears of life, only Lu Ming will suffer.
The money didn't earn a penny, but also lost a tear of life!
"Waynes!"
"Waynes!" Lu Ming shouted two times in succession, but no one answered him.
Lu Ming, who couldn't sit still anymore, picked up the decorations at hand and threw them on the ground.
The crackling sound finally woke up everyone. Looking at the middle-aged man who had walked up to the tears of life, Waynes said in a deep voice, "Who are you!"
The voice that had been indifferent until now finally had its ups and downs.Wayans also recognized that the person in front of him was wearing an erosion mask.
From the looks of it, it seemed that he wanted to pick Wayans' peaches!
With a loud roar, the extraordinary Wayans woke up everyone around him.
"The guy who is in the way!" The middle-aged man cursed in a low voice. He was about to succeed, but he was disturbed by someone.
For the nosy Lu Ming in the box, the middle-aged man can be said to hate it to the extreme.
But the situation in front of him didn't allow him to think too much, and Waynes and the guards of the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce, who had woken up, attacked him one after another.
Chapter 22: Malicious
Wayans, who shot with anger, carried an unrivaled power when he stabbed with his sword.
As the only Tier [-] professional on the scene, Waynes's sword directly used Waynes Tier [-] core skill: Time-Space Thorn.
Countless phantoms seem to be separated and melted on Waynes, and the whole person seems to disappear in this time and space.
As for the middle-aged man who was attacked, Waynes seemed to be everywhere in the surrounding space.
No matter which direction to evacuate, there are countless Wayans blocking him.
"Zizi" saw the middle-aged man who had nowhere to escape, and there was a grinding sound coming from his body, as if all the bones in his body were rubbing against each other.
In an instant, the middle-aged man swelled up, and countless hairs spread across his body.
Like a beast from legend.
The erosion mask worn on his face was also bounced off by the inflated figure, but he had no time to pay attention.
"Ding..." Waynes' sword finally pierced the middle-aged man's body, and there was a sound of metal collision.
"Beastman!"
"He's an orc bonebreaker!"
"Despicable robber!"
The broken bones that showed their original appearance caused bursts of exclamation.
The orcs are a race that lives next to the human empire, but they are hostile to each other.
Since the establishment of the two kingdoms, there have been fights between the two, and there has never been a period of peace.
Beastman's natural physique is also much stronger than that of human beings. In a single battle, among the same level, orcs almost have the upper hand.
The orc named Broken Bone in front of him was also an orc who fled to the vicinity of the Summermore Fortress. He had been choking the trade route of the Summermore Fortress for many years, and was hated by the merchants the most.
"Interesting." Wayans chuckled, "Even dull orcs are interested in Tears of Life?"
Facing Wayans' ridicule, Broken Bone didn't care at all.
With a flick of the tail behind him, Bone Broken, who had no hope of taking the Tears of Life, activated one of his own cores.
"Hidden"
As the most famous skill of the assassin profession, almost all assassins will learn the popular version of concealment even if they have not been given the core skill by God.
And the core skill is the hidden bone fragments, and it is also by virtue of this skill that he was able to retreat from Xia Moore's repeated encirclement and suppression.
"Ding ding ding" Seeing that the enemy was about to flee, Waynes stabbed at the broken bone at a very high speed, regardless of consumption.
Although it caused a certain amount of damage to the broken bone, the broken bone with orc physique resisted the damage of Waynes, resisting the urge to vomit blood, and disappeared in a wave of empty movement.
Waynes, who lost his target, searched for a while and found no trace, so he had no choice but to collect the tears of life.
In the white light cluster, Waynes felt a strong spiritual force and a kind of rule that seemed to be absent.
It can be said that this rule is more valuable than prolonging life by one month.
Especially for the young Wayans, now he has no worries about his lifespan, and he can be promoted to a fourth-tier professional in just one thought.
It's just that advancing from a low-level professional to an intermediate professional is a threshold for a transcendent existence. He wanted to accumulate as much as possible and chose to suppress it.
And obtained the tear of life, even if the law in it is an existence that Waynes can't understand at all, Waynes can still get some benefits by using the tear of life.
It may also be helpful for those who advance to high-level professionals in the future.
In front of everyone, Wayans swallowed the tears of life without hiding anything.
Holy white light radiated from Waynes' whole body, the bright light didn't feel dazzling at all.
After a short while, Waynes showed a slight smile, and it could be seen that Wayans had gained enough benefits from this tear of life.
"President Baker, is the seller of the Tears of Life present?" Wayans asked Baker suddenly after absorbing the Tears of Life.
"Hmm..." When Baker hesitated and didn't know how to answer, Lu Ming stood up in the form of Andrews.
"I am." Lu Ming, who had been watching the play for a long time, agreed, he wanted to see what Waynes wanted to say.
"What's your name?" Wayans let go of his usual arrogance.
Respect is the best way to communicate with someone who can sell items like Tears of Life.
"Anrus, former member of the Summermoor Fortress Guard." Lu Ming directly revealed all of Andrews' secrets.
Looking at Lu Ming who answered seriously, Wayans' eyes were filled with the meaning of I believe you.
When would an ordinary garrison member be able to own this kind of treasure and be willing to sell it.
Wayans was 100% sure that this was just a cover-up by the other party, so he didn't expose much, and asked again: "Do you have any other Tears of Life for sale?"
"I will also give you fifty thousand kinnars for every tear of life!"
"The tears of life are gone now."
"But I have a shop that sells some precious items. There is a world where you can take a look."
"The name is Quaggan Lodge."
After finishing speaking, he turned around, no matter what the expressions of the people behind him were, he left Shi Shiran on the road that the crowd got out of the way.
A mysterious figure who is worthy of the upcoming 4th-level professional, a shop that is willing to sell tears of life.
With Lu Ming's deliberate maintenance, the name of Quaggan Hut and Andrews will spread throughout Summermore Fortress.
There is also deterrence, which can deter some transcendent people with malicious intentions, and it also paves the way for the grocery store to do business in the future.
Just wearing Andrews' face and walking all the way as a wanted person in Fort Summermore, but no one dared to attack Lu Ming.
Even Carl and Ruth who came out of the VIP box did not dare to provoke Lu Ming again.
Ruth never imagined that the person who competed with her for the golden fruit before was actually the owner of Tears of Life.
"You can suppress this resentment, the family can't afford to provoke this kind of person anymore." Carl looked at the resentment in Ruth's eyes and advised.
"I will, brother!"
"If it weren't for your nephew who hasn't advanced to the first-level professional and needs this golden fruit, I wouldn't have fought him for it before."
Ruth replied absent-mindedly, and suddenly it occurred to her mind whether there was only one person who called himself Andrews in a little-known quaggan hut.
If it were a person, then this Andrews would not be as mysterious as he appeared.
Not a mysterious person who dared to ignore the third-tier powerhouse, but a low-level guard member who was lucky enough to get the tears of life...
"If that's the case, maybe there are tears of life in him!"
Ruth was muttering to herself, and didn't listen to a word of what her elder brother Carl said.
And Lu Ming, who returned to the Kungan Hut without being attacked in the slightest, was still complacent about his strategy.
Not only did he cleanse Andrews' identity again, but he also established his reputation in Fort Summermoor. In the future, he would be able to inquire about news or save his good brother Shi An.
Chapter 23: Contract
Not long after, Baker sent the [-] kinnars left over from the purchase of the golden fruit to the Quaggan Hut as promised. He also brought the order that Andrews be released from the wanted list. He is now a free man. .
This news didn't make Lu Ming care too much. It was the golden Gnar who made Lu Mingshi happy. After sending Baker away, the piles of Gnar dazzled Lu Ming's eyes.
"Money! I finally have money!" Lu Ming roared in his heart.
"Tears of Life sold a total of [-] Jinnars, of which the handling fee was [-] Jinnars."
"The store upgrade has not yet been completed, and the host's income will be drawn 90.00% to be used for store decoration!"
"The host has a surplus of 1250 Jinnars from this transaction, and 3500 Jinnars are used to buy the golden fruit."
"Balance: -2250 Kinnar."
The cold electronic sound knocked Lu Ming down from heaven without hesitation.
"It's too dark! Lingkey, can you give me some extra money?"
Lu Ming, who had been cheated several times, was a little bit cowardly even angrily scolding the system, so he could only babble.
Lu Ming, whose ending has not changed at all, finally sighed: "All right, earn money, isn't it just for you to spend the spirit key?"
"I'm happy with the flowers, I'm happy with the flowers!"
"Ding Dong, thank the host for your affirmation of the system, and reward the host with two clerk contracts."
There are still benefits to boasting the system?Lu Ming couldn't help being overjoyed, and quickly clicked on the system panel, and on the two parchment icons was written the word "receive".
Looking at the two clerk contracts that seemed to fall out of the void, Lu Ming clearly understood the effect and method of using this contract.
It is said to be a contract, but it is actually similar to a contract in daily life, as long as both parties voluntarily sign it, it is just more mandatory.
After signing the contract, as the clerk, he must obey the work arrangement of Lu Ming, the owner of the Kungan Hut.
Whether it's going to battle, selling items, keeping secrets, etc., it's all covered.
The owner, Lu Ming, has the right to formulate benefits for the staff.Before signing the contract, you can add and change at will, and the termination of the contract only needs to be done unilaterally by Lu Ming.
Bound by extraordinary power, the clerk contract has unparalleled execution.
Just like keeping secrets, after signing the contract, the clerk cannot convey the secrets about Lu Ming and the Kungan Hut in any way without Lu Ming's nod.
Not to mention the execution of Lu Ming's orders, such as going out to battle, killing enemies, etc.
"What kind of clerk contract is this? Even a devil's contract is nothing more than that,"
"I really sold my soul. Apart from the fact that the content of the contract must be clearly stated and signed voluntarily, this clerk's contract is just like a slave contract."
Lu Ming despised the naming of contracts by the system, but consciously found Andrews and Liu Sandao who had been trapped for a long time.
Decibel clarified the content of the clerk's contract in Nata, Chinese and the two of them. The remuneration that must be given in the contract is that Lu Ming's condition is three meals a day.
After seeing Lu Ming's ever-changing situation and clearly knowing the gap between himself and Kududu, Andrews simply bit his finger and made a mark after listening to Lu Ming's conditions.
Andrews never wanted to experience such a hungry and full day of being imprisoned, and besides this option, Andrews also believed that the other party would not let him go easily.
Andrews, who has no background, also understands that he should report his disappearance at most, and no one will come to rescue him.
Compared to Andrews' straightforwardness, Liu Sandao was lost in thought.
From the perspective of a modern person, it is difficult to accept such a thing that even sells one's soul.
Moreover, after enjoying the status as an awakened person in the men in black organization, Liu Sandao refused from the bottom of his heart if he wanted to sell himself as a slave.
What's more, Liu Sandao was beaten by Kududu and Andrews from the beginning to the end, and Lu Ming has been lying on the wall to watch the show.
Surrendering to such a person made Liu Sandao even more unconvinced.
"It seems that you don't intend to sign this contract?"
"You play in person, only if you can beat me, I will sign!"
"Otherwise, I would rather die than obey!" Liu Sandao, who insisted on this last stubbornness, challenged angrily.
But I thought in my heart: "Either I become angry and give Xiao Ye a good time, or I am so excited that I can't stand it and let Xiao Ye succeed in killing me!"
"You won't dare!" Liu Sandao snorted.
"Fulfill your wish!" Lu Ming let go of the restriction on Liu Sandao.
"Let you go first!"
"Double Shadow Knife!" As soon as he made a move, it was his nirvana. Liu Sandao didn't hesitate, and rushed to Lu Ming to create a long knife.
"It's too slow!" Lu Ming, who has unlocked the attribute of mental strength, has reached the strongest state of a first-tier professional in all aspects of his physical fitness.
Looking at the ghost knife that turned into three knife shadows in front of him, Lu Ming only felt that the blade was light and the speed was extremely slow.
Turning slightly to one side, Lu Ming avoided Liu Sandao's stunt. With a twist of his right index finger, a small stone hit Liu Sandao's blade.
The long knife trembling with great force fell, and Liu Sandao, who was still in a daze, was bullied by Lu Ming, and fell down with a punch.
"you!"
Liu Sandao struggled to get up from the ground, wanted to curse a few words, but finally turned into a long sigh.
"I sign!"
After Xi mentioned two clerks who would work without food and lodging, Lu Ming arranged them for the gate of Xiangtianwaitian and the gate of Blue Star respectively.
Without Lu Ming's permission, people who enter the Quaggan Hut through the two gates can only see the scene of this gate.Each other is an illusory existence.
"Tuk tuk tuk" there was another knock on the door of Tianwaitian, and it wasn't long before Baker was sent away, who else would come?
Lu Ming was a little puzzled. The two clerks who were arranged to wash and tidy up their appearance hadn't taken their seats yet. Lu Ming, who still had the appearance of Andrews, saw a new visitor.
"Waynes? What are you doing here?"
Facing Lu Ming who called him by his first name, Waynes wasn't too angry. He didn't feel that way at the auction before.
After returning to the foothold, Waynes realized that it was Lu Ming who reminded him to wake up and face the broken bones.
A person who is facing the effect of the shattering device wakes up faster than him who is about to reach the fourth level, or the other party is not affected at all.
No matter which one it is, it proves that Lu Ming has extraordinary strength.
"Thank you for your help at the auction house, I came here to express my gratitude."
"Your store, I also want to visit and see if I am lucky enough to bring back a few items."
Lu Ming suddenly realized that it was indeed Lu Ming's idea to let Waynes come to the shop.
It's just that I thought that I could buy and sell items in the mall after having Jinnar, but I never thought that now not only there is no Jinnar, but I owe the system a whole lot of debt.
Lu Ming said with a little embarrassment: "The goods in the store haven't arrived yet, let's talk about it later."
"A helping hand is also helping myself, so don't worry about it."
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 15: Baker Chamber of Commerce
"Please come inside!" Lu Ming, who had transformed into Andrews, walked into a chamber of commerce stationed in Summermore Fortress under the leadership of an attendant.
The Baker Chamber of Commerce, named after the founder of the Chamber of Commerce, is an inconspicuous small chamber of commerce among the countless chambers of commerce in Summermore Fortress.
Baker was a standard Kryta Empire businessman, wearing a gray melon cap, and his short stature couldn't hide his shrewd eyes.
As soon as he saw Lu Ming coming in wearing the garrison armor, Baker's eyes told him that a big deal was coming.
The Baker Chamber of Commerce, which usually mainly targets civilians, rarely has extraordinary people visit.
All members of the garrison are possessors of extraordinary power. As long as they see this layer of armor, it is enough for the shrewd Baker to welcome it with all their strength.
"Dear guest, what do you need?" The voice was flattering but not annoying.
"Do you have shimmering dust here?" Lu Ming asked one of the mission items.
How could the Baker Chamber of Commerce, which deals in daily necessities, have supernatural items, but Baker still replied very quickly: "Yes, but in terms of price."
"You also know that the shimmering floating dust is the main material to confuse the earth element outside the city, so it will be more expensive."
"How much is it more expensive?" Lu Ming looked at Baker with a half-smile.
Baker, who didn't seem to notice Lu Ming's expression, replied: "The usual price is 10 Jinnars per standard share."
"But now because of the defense of the city, each standard share is 15 kinnars."
"Well, is there any rotten grass in the swamp?" Lu Ming asked the next question noncommittally.
"The rotten grass in the swamp of the corpse field?" Baker was slightly surprised.
Although Baker himself was not a transcendent, as a businessman, he knew very well about the famous corpse field swamp.
There is a great danger hidden in the swamp of the corpse field. Even a person with extraordinary ability may disappear inexplicably there, and even the bones cannot be found.
However, there are a lot of spiritual energy materials in it. Attracted by Jinnar, successive expedition teams plunged into the vast corpse field swamp.
Baker once fantasized about purchasing spiritual energy materials on the outskirts of the swamp and trading them with rich and powerful superhumans.
It's a pity that those who dared to enter the corpse field swamp were a group of desperadoes. Baker, who lacked force, gave up this fantasy after being looted several times.
The swamp rot is the most famous psionic material in the corpse field swamp.
Not only is it an important material for assassins to make secret medicines, but it also has the effect of changing the properties of psionic materials.
"The Swamp Rotting Grass Baker Chamber of Commerce does not have it here. Even if you go to other branches to mobilize it, it will be very difficult. And the price is extremely high!"
After hearing this material, Baker didn't even dare to fool around. People who can afford this material are not something a small businessman like him can offend.
Baker felt a little uneasy when he remembered that he had guaranteed that there would be shimmering dust before.
"It seems that you have not been gold
Gnar's eyes lit up completely. "
Lu Ming, who was backed by the garrison, went to inquire about the mission items after he knew them.
Although the shimmering dust is rare, and the price is not known to be affordable by Andrews' salary, it can be found anyway.
However, due to the restriction of the place of production and the wide range of uses of swamp rot, the price is already sky-high. According to the standard of the system, the price can reach 100 kinnars.
The last shaman scepter can only be obtained by shamans who kill the centaur tribe.
Each shaman scepter is the inheritance treasure of the centaur tribe, and it is an important medium for shamans to cast their skills.
To paraphrase a sentence is: the stick is in the person, and the stick is broken and the person is dead.
The shaman scepter is not very useful to human beings, it is more for collecting, to show that the owner has killed the evil centaur shaman.
Because of the strength of shamans and collectors, shaman scepters that are wandering outside are extremely rare, and they are priceless.
This is also the reason why Lu Ming found the Baker Chamber of Commerce.
An inconspicuous small chamber of commerce, but the leader is quite knowledgeable, and he has hanged around in the outskirts of the corpse field swamp.
As long as you find enough temptations, it is enough for the two parties to reach a cooperation intention.
"President Baker, I want the shimmering dust and swamp rot we just mentioned!"
"And add the shaman's scepter."
"And I wouldn't give even a single brass sope."
Baker, who quietly listened to Lu Ming's words, was not angry, and said bluntly: "Then what can you give?"
"Are you not afraid that I will directly rob your chamber of commerce?"
"Although my Baker Chamber of Commerce has some value, it is far worse than what you said."
"Even if you sold the entire Baker Chamber of Commerce for two standard portions of swamp rot."
Lu Ming looked at the eloquent Baker: "I have a legendary item that can increase lifespan."
"what!"
Baker, who was still full of confidence before, had a look of disbelief.
"Increased lifespan?"
"How is it possible? I don't mean to look down on you. As an ordinary guard like you, how can you come into contact with life-increasing items?"
"It can only be added by one month."
Lu Ming looked at Baker, who was rolling his eyes, with a half-smile: "President Baker can also try to snatch it from me, or spread the news."
"Please don't get me wrong, what are your conditions for selling this legendary item?" Baker's mind became active.
The soldier in the garrison opposite may be just a pawn, or the others are none of his business.
The most important thing is how to get this item, or the right to sell this item.
With such an item, his Baker Chamber of Commerce will soar into the sky, transforming from a small chamber of commerce for ordinary people into a large chamber of commerce for extraordinary people.
As for killing people and seizing treasures, even thinking about it, such a precious item would not be carried with him.
Moreover, I am an ordinary person, and the other party is an extraordinary person, so robbing him is simply asking for death.
"I can give you the right to sell it, and the price is three copies each of Twilight Dust, Swamp Rot Grass, and Shaman Scepter."
"If you can provide more materials, we may be able to cooperate more closely in the future."
Lu Ming, who wanted to give a commission, thought that the spirit key would charge 50% of the transaction fee, and the majority of the transaction income would be deducted by the spirit key to upgrade the quaggan hut.
After all the calculations, if I really want to give a commission, Baker worked hard, maybe Lu Ming's own harvest is not enough to pay the commission.
Anyway, the place that needs to be covered up now is Blue Star. On Tianwaitian's side, the architectural style is the same, and extraordinary people are more common.
There should be very few people like Liu Sandao who came to the door because of jealousy.
More importantly, Lu Ming couldn't buy these materials himself if he had money.
Lu Ming, who was so tight, had a small calculation in his heart. He gave Baker a right to sell because he had no other valuable items, and he didn't have enough channels and security guarantees.
Chapter No.16: Battle of the Awakened 1
In the Quaggan Hut, after Lu Ming took Baker to inspect the one-month lifespan condensed into a ball of light, Baker, an ordinary person, could detect the vitality contained in it.
After Beck left without doubt, Lu Ming gave him seven days to prepare. After seven days, no matter what the price is, as long as it is higher than the minimum price of the system, Lu Ming will sell the life light sphere.
The problem with Blue Star is not obvious yet. When there are more and more awakened people and the men in black organization strengthens the management of City D, the chances of the Quaggan Hut being discovered will increase exponentially.
Lu Ming couldn't help hesitating, the sooner he can get the skin of the quaggan hut, the better.
If it weren't for the desire to keep some more money, Lu Ming would have liked to sell this month's life balls now.
In order to prevent Baker from having bad thoughts, Lu Ming directly closed the extraterrestrial star gate of Quaggan Hut temporarily.
And there is no trace of the Quaggan Hut that appeared inexplicably in this world.
Lu Ming returned to Blue Star again, and first went to the base organized by the men in black to report to Dianmao.
With Shi An's active care, Lu Ming is now really like an old fritter after opening the door to retire in the men in black organization.
If you don't do the work, you will receive your salary.
For example, now, when Lu Ming came out of the base, he was still holding a handful of cash in his hand.
This was the first salary Lu Ming received after joining the Men in Black Organization.
And he also specifically stated that he wanted cash. Lu Ming, who had been deducted from the spirit key all the time, thought, this time he will hold on to it so tightly, it depends on what you do, and there are so many outsiders watching.
Lu Ming didn't believe that the system would be directly exposed for such a small amount of money.
"Small, too young."
A stack of slightly heavy cash turned into a few thin notes under the eyes of everyone.
And everyone turned a blind eye.
"Lingkey, can you show some face?" Lu Ming complained.
The money in the hand of "Shua" has decreased by two again, and there are only less than 10...
"I'm going, Master Spirit Key, I was wrong!"
"Give me back my hard-earned money!"
However, what is lost is lost after all. No matter what good things Lu Ming said, the notes in his hand still did not increase.
Although the weather was still very hot, Lu Ming felt chills all over his body.
"My dearest Grandpa Mao, how heartbroken I am to lose you."
Even though he knew it was useless, Lu Ming still held the red banknotes in his hand even tighter.
Lu Ming, who snatched food from Kududu's mouth every day, finally had a chance to eat real meat.
After nearly twenty days of fresh fish, Lu Ming felt that he was about to become a quagan.
He wants to eat meat, and he wants to eat a lot of meat!
Excitedly, he found a restaurant that looked good. Lu Ming quickly looked through the menu. It was the money in his pocket that made Lu Ming lack confidence.
After ordering a large pot of braised pork, Lu Ming paid attention to his surroundings.
Before the coming of the Heavenly Gate, in restaurants like this, when eating, people talked about all kinds of topics, whether it was business or relationship, friends or colleagues, most of them were unnutritious nonsense.
But now, the topic is somewhat unified.It's been a while since the Awakened appeared.
The awakened ones have also been recognized by various forces.It is an extremely honorable thing to be an Awakened today.
Not only is there a classification of psionic affinity that most people agree with on the Internet, but psionic testers have also been launched in major cities.
Although most of the people's affinity is still below 30, even if it reaches above 30, some people's physical fitness is only slightly enhanced, breaking through the standard human attribute upper limit of 10.
But the strength is limited, if it is the previous Blue Star, it may make people amazed, this is a strong man, a master of martial arts.
After the current research by major organizations, a tacit consensus has been reached, that those with psionic affinity below 50 have almost no potential for cultivation.
Even if there is no skill after awakening, the affinity of psionic energy must be above 50, and only when it reaches level D can it have enough potential.
And this part of people, D-level to B-level are the recognized masters of extraordinary abilities, and they are also the main members of major organizations.
"Why!" While Lu Ming was feasting, accompanied by the sound of slapping the table, a roar rang out.
The one who made the sound was a tall young man who was dressed very stylishly.
"I have a psionic affinity of 49, why not me!"
The young man yelled into the phone, and everyone who looked over turned their heads. Since the appearance of psionic affinity classification, this kind of thing has happened more often.
People who eat melons say that this kind of melon has no taste after eating.
It seems that this is a person who is treated differently because of his low power affinity.
He just didn't know whether the Awakened organization the young man wanted to join or the girl he admired was on the phone.
Anyway, the people on the other side look down on his affinity.
"It's a crime..." Lu Ming sighed, and continued to lower his head to deal with the braised pork in front of him.
Although the affinity test was created by Lu Ming, Lu Ming didn't feel guilty at all. Why do you want such a high affinity? I, the founder, have zero affinity. What did I say?
"The young man has no concentration." The whispering voice made the young man who was barely quiet become manic again.
"what are you guys saying!"
"You losers who don't even have an affinity level of 30 dare to look down on me!"
As soon as the words fell, the marble dining table was lifted by the young man and thrown towards the crowd.
And Lu Ming, who lowered his head and hated the braised pork, happened to be in this crowd. Although Lu Ming, who had only acquired the ability to transform, had fooled a few people in the world of Tianwaitian.
But it was also relying on his identity and Kududu to survive, and now such a huge rock is on the top.
Lu Ming, who only unlocked his mental power after awakening, couldn't think of a solution for a while, and could only watch the marble slowly approaching in his sight.
But the body couldn't react.
"Crack" with a loud noise.
A block of ice the size of the table shattered the marble.
Except for a few diners whose noses and faces were bruised and swollen by a few large gravels and ice cubes, the others were just a little embarrassed and did not suffer any injuries.
"The man in black, Liu Chengjun, is here!"
"The people leave quickly."
With a soft shout, the one who stopped the young man was actually a heroic woman who looked a little younger than that young man.
Following the evacuated crowd, Lu Ming arrived at the door and stood by the wall. This was the first time Lu Ming saw the battle between the awakened ones.
Although this will be a contest of great disparity in strength, Lu Ming still wants to know to what extent the awakened ones have exerted their extraordinary power in such a short period of time.
Kududu's battles before were all completely crushing, with pure attribute strength and no skill competition.
From Lu Ming's point of view, it was like a big man beating a child, nothing could be seen at all.
Now it's the Awakened fighting the Awakened, which is worth watching.
Chapter No.17: Battle of the Awakened 2
A huge ice cube quickly condensed in the air, and Lu Ming felt that the air around him was much drier.
The ice cubes exuding cold air smashed towards the mad youth with unrivaled momentum.
The sound of the wind far exceeds the previous marble table.
Seeing that he was invincible, the young man jumped horizontally and narrowly avoided the ice cubes that Liu Chengjun condensed.
Not only did he not escape, but instead he came over.
After awakening, he didn't acquire any skills, but his physical fitness got stronger than that of the skill owner.
When Liu Chengjun condensed the third piece of ice, the young man had already arrived in front of her.
A table leg that was unscrewed was about to hit Liu Chengjun's head.
Liu Chengjun with a cold face did not panic at all.
A thin layer of ice quickly spread on the ground, covering the entire restaurant.
The young man's feet were frozen tightly by ice cubes. Although Liu Chengjun's physical fitness was not as good as this young man's, he was not slow to hide.
Liu Chengjun, who opened the distance, once again manipulated the ice condensed in the air, intending to take down the youth in one fell swoop.
At this time, the young man actually smiled. Under Liu Chengjun's astonished gaze, a short arrow shot out from the young man's sleeve.
He actually carried a weapon with him, although it was not a modern firearm, but judging by the young man's forbearance, this short arrow must have deadly poison.
And Liu Chengjun, who had relaxed his vigilance, had no energy to dodge the short arrow at this time.
At the very moment, a stool flew obliquely from behind Liu Chengjun, just in time to block the short arrow.
The two were taken aback for a moment, and Lu Ming let out a sigh of relief: "It's so dangerous!"
Lu Ming also had no idea of being a hero to save the beauty. The reason why he made the move was that his high-strength mental power made Lu Ming discover some clues. When the young man was frozen, he realized that this was just a way to let Liu Chengjun relax his vigilance.
And Lu Ming threw the chair and hit the short arrow. It can also be said that the young man's short arrow hit the chair thrown by Lu Ming.
Now there are only three people in the restaurant, Young Man, Liu Chengjun and Lu Ming.
If Liu Chengjun was killed by the youth under such circumstances, there is a high probability that Lu Ming, a half-awakened person, would be killed together. This is something that has to be done.
"If you want to blame it, blame yourself for watching the show..." Lu Ming thought in his heart.
Seeing that both of them were looking at him, Lu Ming said with a little embarrassment: "You guys continue? I just left first."
"You bastard who doesn't know what to do!" The young man broke free from the ice that froze his feet, regardless of Liu Chengjun's attack on Lu Ming.
"Kazizi" the sound of the ice rapidly freezing echoed in the restaurant.
Liu Chengjun, who had recovered, fully manipulated her awakened skills, and layers of ice crystals covered the young man's body.
With a short distance of more than ten meters, the young man stopped in front of Lu Ming and froze into a huge ice sculpture.
"Get out of here quickly." Liu Chengjun said to Lu Ming who was still watching the play with difficulty.
"He's been frozen..." Before Lu Ming finished speaking, he saw the frozen young man shatter the ice around him again.
Because Liu Chengjun's skills were broken, he was injured first, spit out a mouthful of blood, and his face quickly turned pale.
"What black flag! What affinity rating!"
"It's all just your conspiracy!"
The young man who saw Liu Chengjun vomiting blood shouted: "I am the real strong!"
He was covered in bruises from the cold, but he didn't feel weak at all. Facts have proved that even if the so-called psychic affinity is low, it doesn't mean that his combat power is low.
So what if he didn't have the awakening skills, but the psionic power greatly strengthened his physical fitness, just like this powerful fist.
The young man was about to beat Lu Ming to death, but in front of another man in black who had awakened his skills, he wanted to break the shackles of affinity!
In Lu Ming's eyes, the fist was constantly enlarged, and under the feeling of high mental strength, the movement was like a slow-moving video.
But Lu Ming, whose reaction speed has not been strengthened, can see clearly the opponent's fist, but he can't dodge this simple heavy punch.
Before his neck was broken, Lu Ming tilted his body reluctantly, and his fist brushed against Lu Ming's right shoulder.
"Bang" Lu Ming, who was knocked away, felt a sharp pain in his right shoulder. He subconsciously raised his hand and found that the bones in his right hand had been shattered by the punch.
And the young man strolled towards Lu Ming again: "If you can escape my punch, you, a waste who is not even an awakened person, can be proud."
"Remember, the one who killed you is..."
"boom!"
The young man's words were abruptly interrupted by the sound of a sniper, the young man standing in front of Lu Ming.
One moment he was still alive and kicking, wanting to kill people and make history, but the next moment his head was blasted to pieces by a sniper bullet.
Lu Ming, who was covered in blood, stared blankly at the young man who fell to the ground. Although the awakened person is beyond ordinary people, he is still human after all. Modern weapons are not as weak as he thought!
The support is provided by the affiliated guards of the Men in Black organization. Now that there are more and more awakened people, all the management of extraordinary power belongs to the Men in Black organization.
An organization that had been established for less than a month quickly expanded.
In addition to the awakened ones, there are many guards with modern weapons in the men in black organization. Coordinated operations are gradually taking shape in the vision of the man in black boss Wang Ze.
Awakened people with skills are research-oriented and cutting-edge talents, while Awakened people with no skills and below D-level are more likely to be sent to the subordinate guards to serve as squad leaders.
After getting acquainted with Liu Chengjun, Lu Ming returned to the Quaggan Hut after receiving treatment from the men in black medical team.
There is a quaggan cub that needs to be fed at home, so Lu Ming cannot accept long-term hospital treatment.
I can only take time to visit the medical team every day.
Although he was injured all over watching the excitement, Lu Ming's focus was on the fact that people with low psychic affinity can suppress people with high affinity.
In other words, the psychic affinity obtained as a black flag is really just a potential reference value, and does not represent the real combat power.
Without awakening skills, psionic energy will strengthen the body stronger, which means that the current strategy of the major awakened organizations to exclude awakened people below D level is wrong.
But the young man who was able to suppress Liu Chengjun and shatter the ice that froze his whole body could not even resist in the face of sniper bullets.
Lu Ming's 20-point mental power did not observe the trajectory of the bullet.
In terms of power, there are many modern weapons that surpass sniper bullets.
Although the Awakened appeared on a large scale, the low-key place seemed to be low-key.
There is also the question of one's own attributes, being able to keenly perceive the details missed by others, and seeing other people's actions clearly, but there is no way to avoid it.
This is an extremely obvious shortcoming of Lu Ming. It seems that he must find a way to increase various attributes.
Chapter 18: Skins without upgrades
Time passed, and within a few days after being attacked, Lu Ming was questioned many times by the investigation department of the Men in Black organization.
Fortunately, Lu Ming himself is a logistics member of the Men in Black organization, and has Liu Chengjun's certificate.
Lu Ming was only routinely questioned, and was not turned upside down.
The conclusion and the facts finally matched up, but it happened just at the right time, and it was a little unlucky.
For this reason, the Men in Black organization also allocated a large period of time for Lu Ming to spend on sick leave and recuperation.
The genuine department is the genuine department, and all aspects are considered comprehensively, so that members will not have any worries.
Just like now that Lu Ming is going to enter the world of Tianwaitian again, there is no need to worry about the problem of the next period of time.
There is no need to give up a secure identity and income.
Quaggan Hut has reappeared in Summermore Hold.
Lu Ming, who bears the identity of Andrews, soon saw the wanted warrant for Andrews on the street, and it disappeared for seven days. Andrews was successfully turned into a wanted criminal by Lu Ming...
Casually transformed into a public face, and dressed in coarse clothes common to commoners in Xia Moore, Lu Ming knocked on the door of the Baker Chamber of Commerce again.
In just seven days, the Baker Chamber of Commerce, which was originally unknown, made a big splash in Summermore Fortress.
There is a gossip circulating in the streets and alleys. The Baker Chamber of Commerce has obtained the right to sell a legendary item from a mysterious person.
Although the increase of a legendary item that can increase the lifespan of one month is not much, for items related to lifespan, even one day is enough to make people covet.
Being able to increase lifespan means that the item either contains extremely huge vitality, or it is a reward given by the gods to the favored ones.
Or a combination of both, this thing is just an extra month of life for ordinary people, but for the strong it is to study higher-level power or prolong the already short life.
"No one thinks their life is too long!" Baker under the melon skin hat clamored, and hired countless people to spread the news of this item.
If it weren't for the fact that the centaur was attacking the Xiamoor fortress now.Baker is even planning to take a trip to the distant city of Divinity.
Only in the magnificent capital built by all mankind, can this legendary item named "Tears of Life" have the greatest effect.
"It's a pity..." Baker sighed, and continued to promote the auction of Tears of Life.
In order to ensure the safety and fairness of the auction, Baker also spent a huge amount of money to entrust the most prestigious Black Lion Chamber of Commerce to cooperate in this auction.
"President! A stranger asked me to bring you a sentence, are those three things ready?"
"Invite that person in quickly." Although Baker didn't know why the replacement was made, he knew three things and still asked the question like this.
It must be the accomplice of the member of the garrison last time, and even the person who claimed to be Andrews last time, Baker had someone check it out.
He is a marginalized and excluded garrison soldier who mysteriously disappeared after meeting Baker.
This was a mysterious force, and Baker knew very well that he couldn't afford to offend such a force, and he cared about the three items as much as promoting Tears of Life.
Departing from the Baker Chamber of Commerce, the two came to the Quaggan Lodge again.
Baker took out Shimmer Dust, Swamp Rot Grass, and Shaman Scepter in turn from a suitcase.
There are three copies of each of the three items.
Not to mention the shimmering floating dust, it is just some dust that emits a slight white light. Lu Ming has seen scattered ones in the garrison, so he is not surprised.
The rotten grass in the swamp was carefully packed in three crystal bottles by Baker. Through the crystal clear crystal, Lu Ming could see three rotten grasses that looked like weeds, exuding a strong black air, as if even the bottles All will be reduced to dust under long-term erosion.
Finally, there are three shaman scepters with long and short arms. A strange creature is woven on a rough wooden stick with unknown weeds, and the creatures woven on the three scepters are also different.
At first glance, these are three wooden sticks played by children, and they have no use value for human supernatural beings. Only in the hands of the centaur who created them can they gain the power of shamanism.
"This is what you want." Baker said to Lu Ming humbly.
"I wonder when are you going to sell the tears of your life?"
Both eyes stared at Lu Ming expectantly, for fear that Lu Ming would regret it.
"Don't worry, as agreed, we will sell the Tears of Life tonight."
"You have to close the security issue!"
Baker smiled obsequiously: "No problem, I invited people from the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce branch to maintain order!"
"With the brand and strength of the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce, no one dares to make a move!"
After hearing Baker's promise, Lu Ming said, "Take it." He threw the tears of life on the shelf to Baker. "Send the payment to the store later!"
"Or, you can also choose to be hunted down by me!" Lu Ming pretended to be majestic and threatened.
After all, money touches people's hearts, and bad thoughts are strangled in the cradle.
"Don't worry, all I ask is a name!"
"Tomorrow morning, be sure to fill your shop with kinnar!"
Seeing Baker who went out with the Tears of Life, Lu Ming now has time to pay attention to the Quaggan Hut's skin mission.
For a remote fortress like Summermoor in seven days, it is still difficult to collect three items.
Although Baker only collected a whole set, Lu Ming was already satisfied. The second set that Baker had expected was embarrassingly said before that the rotten grass and the scepter were really priceless.
In Lu Ming's confirmation sound, the electronic pitch of the spirit key sounded on time.
"Congratulations to the host for completing the task of changing the appearance of the quaggan hut."
"Please choose one of the following three appearances as the appearance reward for Quaggan Hut."
Three stereoscopic images appeared in front of Lu Ming's eyes amidst the voice of the spirit key.
The one on the left looks like a miniature version of the Summermore Fortress, with towering walls, strong gates, and orderly arrays of war equipment...
The one in the middle is in the form of a small rural house in the suburbs. The white walls and concrete columns imitate the architectural style of Europe...
The one on the right is still the dilapidated grocery store, it doesn't look like it has changed at all...
All three forms hide the material properties of the quaggan hut, and will cause creatures passing by the quaggan hut to ignore the quaggan hut inadvertently.
Looking at the styles of the three grocery stores, the one I like the most is the shrunken version of Fort Summermore, which is not only majestic and domineering, but also very practical. However, as the gate of heaven continues to open, Fort Summermore will sooner or later be destroyed by the Blue Stars. Know, pass!
The small bungalow in the middle is okay, but it looks a bit too high-profile, and it's hard to explain if Shitou comes to visit.
In the end, Lu Ming, who was picking and choosing, still pinched his nose and chose the original appearance of the grocery store, keeping a low profile if he could.
Chapter 19: Summermoor Auction 1
That night, in an underground building in Xia Moore, countless people with extraordinary abilities gathered here.
Even if the earth elements outside the city are still throwing boulders into the fortress, they still can't stop people's desire for tears of life.
Many people clearly know that they are incapable of obtaining the Tears of Life, but being able to witness this legendary item is something worth boasting about.
If someone challenges the authority of the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce, there may be a chance to find out.
In the lively atmosphere, Lu Ming also mixed in the crowd, and entered a VIP box with the admission ticket given by Baker.
As the first item sold in the grocery store, Lu Ming was still very worried about the auction of Tears of Life, and he had no real countermeasures against Baker Lu Ming, so he could only scare him.
If you don't come and stare at it, your heart will be too big.
And with the finale of Tears of Life, many precious items appeared in this auction co-organized by the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce.
I heard that there is also an instrument of destruction, whose value is not much less than the tears of life.
"Everyone, be quiet, I, Baker, will host this special auction of Tears of Life."
Baker, who was standing on the stage, changed out of his old-fashioned melon hat today, and put on an aristocratic attire. The gold thread on the border and the embellished gems can be regarded as a very valuable suit.
It's a pity that it looks a bit unflattering on the short Baker, but it doesn't hinder Baker's high spirits at all.
In front of the many powers in Fortress Summermore, being able to show his face in front of the supernatural beings who came here for the name and the nobles from the city of God's Blessing will be a great help to the Baker Chamber of Commerce in the future.
For an old-faced businessman, this is an intangible asset, even more precious than the tears of life itself. This is why Baker is willing to provide Lu Ming with free sales services and return mission items.
"Ahem..." Baker coughed, and when the audience calmed down, he said in a salesman's tone, "Tears of Life will be auctioned at the end. First, let's take a look at other precious items."
"Please invite the first lot, the steam wand."
The two hostesses came to the stage holding a staff about two meters long, but this staff was different from what most people imagined.
The head of the staff is a metal shell the size of a skull. Layers of gears can be seen in the gaps that are constantly rotating, and occasionally some water vapor is emitted from the head of the staff.
"This is a powerful weapon from the distant kingdom of flames, which can greatly increase the power of fire and air skills."
"There is also an additional skill of scorching breath."
"The starting price is 500 kinnars, and each increase must not be less than 10 kinnars."
After all, Baker also summoned a guard. Under the use of the guard, countless scorching steam spewed out from the head of the stick, like a sharp sword, and easily killed a demonstration beast.
"Good stuff." Lu Ming sighed in the VIP box: "It's so powerful without awakening and learning any skills."
"Although it seems to be just extremely high water vapor, with Blue Star's technological level, there is definitely no way to reduce such a device to the size of a staff, and the energy consumed is still spiritual energy."
Seeing the steam wand, Lu Ming felt a little moved, and really wanted to end up participating in the bidding, but he was short of money, so he could only forcefully suppress his desire to buy.
In the fierce competition, Lu Ming watched helplessly as a mysterious man covered in robes took away the steam wand at a price of 700 kinaals.
The next lot also came into play in the regret that the steam wand was bought. This is a captured Mordir centaur...
Items came up and down one by one, most of the items were extremely rare and were bought by the participants at a premium.
There are also some less precious items that have failed to be auctioned, such as the Modir centaur tribe that has surrounded the Xiamoor Fortress.
The people in the fortress only have murderous intentions for centaurs, and will not spend money to buy them.
People from other places have to consider how to take the centaur away from the Xiamoor Fortress. After all, the army is guarding the mirror, and it is impossible to take the centaur away without a master above the fourth rank.
As for the superhumans who came to participate in the auction this time, the strongest one was only at the third level, so it would be no problem at all to let him leave by himself.
If you bring a centaur that keeps resisting, it will be hanging, maybe you will be trapped in it.
Among the many auction items, there was one item that aroused Lu Ming's great interest, even more coveted by Lu Ming than the steam wand.
"Golden Fruit!"
"After the superhumans below the first level eat it, all aspects of their physical fitness will reach the limit of those below the first level in a very short period of time, which can make up for the shortcomings of the superhumans below the first level."
For those who have just come into contact with extraordinary power, this is no less than an artifact.
It's a pity that it's only useful for people below the first level. People who have reached the first level will have no effect after eating it. It's just a relatively sweet fruit.
Moreover, the shelf life of the golden fruit is capped at one month, even if you want to buy it as a family heirloom, you can't do it.
As a result, although the appearance of this golden fruit caused a great sensation, it did not lead to an extremely high price.
"This is what I want! Even if all the proceeds from Tears of Life go into it, and even if I owe a debt to the spirit spoon, I still want to buy this golden fruit."
Lu Ming has been criticizing that after his awakening, his physical fitness has not been strengthened at all, but now the hope of strengthening is in sight, so he called a waiter who was guarding outside the box and asked him to ask Baker to stop the auction.Come here temporarily.
After seeing Baker coming from the stage, Lu Ming said bluntly, "I want that golden fruit!"
Baker was surprised for a while, such a mysterious organization still needs golden fruit?But he still replied obediently, "The golden fruit is provided by the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce. There is no way to keep it for you, but you can take pictures yourself."
"No money!" Lu Ming replied confidently.
"You have tears of life waiting for the auction. You can bid directly for this golden fruit, and the price difference will be deducted from your reward at that time!"
After Baker returned to the stage in a hurry, Lu Ming directly raised the price of the golden fruit that had been slowly auctioned by 500 kinnars.
"1500 kinnars!" Lu Ming shouted extremely firmly, his words were full of confidence in the golden fruit.
"1600 kinnars." A new quotation came from a private room.
Seeing that someone was making trouble, Lu Ming quoted again: "2000 kinnars!"
"2100 ginnars."
"3000 quinnars!" Lu Ming felt his heart bleed. 3000 quinnars may not sound like much, but considering that 1 ginnar can be exchanged for 10 silver tala or 1000 copper pesos, this statistic is A little big.
According to Lu Ming's judgment, the purchasing power of the copper peso is comparable to that of the American knife dollar on Blue Star.
Chapter 20: Mask of Erosiona
"3100 Kinnar" the voice from another box continued to come.
There was also a woman's sharp voice: "Don't be shameless!"
Unmoved, Lu Ming continued to quote: "3500 gold!"
Others at the venue were startled and started discussing after hearing this offer.
Golden apples are precious, but they are limited in their usefulness and preservation methods, and for those who have survived a catastrophe, comprehensive development may not be as unique as it is.
The overall improvement of physical fitness to the limit below the first level is not as good as the benefits brought by far surpassing the first level such as strength or speed alone.
After all, omnipotence also means omnipotence, which is synonymous with mediocrity.
And the golden fruit that usually cost 2000 kinnars has already sold for a sky-high price of 3500 kinnars.
In the other box were a man and a woman, extremely richly dressed.
At this time, the woman wanted to continue bidding, but the man shook his head and whispered: "Ruth, tears of life are our goal."
"Leave enough funds to buy Tears of Life."
The woman called Ruth, whose originally beautiful face was full of viciousness, shouted to the outside: "If you offend me, then even if you kneel down and offer the golden fruit, you will not be able to survive, nor will you be able to die!"
"3500 Jinnar 3 times..."
"Congratulations to the guest in Box 6!"
After the man and woman did not compete, Lu Ming successfully took the golden fruit.
And it was quickly sent over by Baker.
As for offending someone?Lu Ming didn't care at all. Anyway, he was using a fabricated identity. If you have the ability, you can find me and talk about it.
For the first time, Lu Ming felt that the skill of transfiguration was so easy to use, and he was not afraid of being hated at all.
After receiving the tray brought by the waiter, a fruit the size of a strawberry stood in the center of the tray. The glittering golden color itself revealed an extraordinary atmosphere.
Without any hesitation, Lu Ming threw the golden fruit into his mouth in one gulp, and after chewing it only had a slightly sweet taste.
There is no such thing as the legendary Tiandibao that melts in the mouth, and it is a very normal food in terms of taste.
It was only after eating that bursts of heat radiated from the stomach.
It was like a round of fierce scorching sun was scorching the body.
The clothes on Lu Ming's body were carbonized little by little, and finally turned into ashes.
After enduring the roasting for more than 10 minutes, the intense high temperature slowly dropped.
At this time, Lu Ming had recovered his real appearance, his skin was covered with exfoliated dead skin, and even his hair was burnt to nothing.
Click on the long-lost personal attribute panel.

Comments: I am bald, and I have become stronger!
Powerful, Lu Ming can confirm that he is stronger than any awakened person on Blue Star.
No matter which aspect has reached the peak at the current stage, as long as there is one more aspect that can break through, Lu Ming can successfully transfer to a first-tier professional.
According to the information that has been inquired over the past few days, no matter how the skills used by each person are ever-changing, they are all within the scope of the nine major occupations.
In the later stage, as long as you confirm which career to develop, after successfully changing jobs, you can get a skill again no matter what your affinity is.
You can also learn the popular skills of this profession. From then on, the awakened or transcendent will no longer only have monotonous attack methods.
Every time a level is raised, a skill will be obtained in the dark. According to legend, a superhuman can reach the ninth level at most, that is, he can obtain nine skills of his own.
People with high psychic affinity can awaken a skill before reaching the first level, and these people are stronger than ordinary extraordinary people.
Especially for those who have acquired innate skills, their skill levels will also increase as the master's rank increases.
If they can really become Ninth-level Transcendents, these people will have one more Ninth-level skill than others, which will greatly improve their strength.
After eating the golden fruit, Lu Ming also fell into a weak state. The so-called strong feeling is just the panel data.
Now, after Lu Ming re-transformed, he opened the door and asked the waiter to prepare a suit of clothes, water and food.
Although Lu Ming's illusion can make others unable to see the truth, but the fake is fake. Lu Ming, who is leaking all over his body, still feels uncomfortable, so he can only ask the waiter to prepare clothes.
As for water and food, it is necessary to replenish the body and restore physical strength.
At this time, more than half of the auction was in progress, and items marked as ruined utensils were also brought to the stage.
This is a mask depicting a weeping woman, with two lines of blood and tears in the eyes of the mask.
"Destroyer: 3-035, erosion mask." Baker's voice came serious.
"It is said that every piece of destruction equipment was created by chance after the world was destroyed. In addition to their various functions, they also have powerful negative effects."
"The classification is based on the initial number 0-4. The smaller the number, the higher the risk and the greater the use restriction."
"3-035, erosion mask, after wearing it, you can solidify into another person according to your own wishes, and other people around you will subconsciously recognize your identity."
"However, it is not recommended to wear it for more than one hour every 24 hours. Wearing it for a long time will gradually erode your personality by the mask, and it will induce you to commit suicide and become a cold corpse!"
After the brief introduction, Baker carefully moved away from the mask: "The starting price is 2000 kinnars, and each increase must not be less than 100 kinnars!"
After listening to the introduction, Lu Ming regained his indifference from his original interested look.
Not only is the ability similar to his own innate skills, but also the powerful negative effects make Lu Ming a little startled.
It actually controls the wearer, and wearing it for a long time will kill the wearer.
What kind of destructive tool is this? It's simply that I think I have too much money and a long life.
Lu Ming also learned about the term shattering equipment from Baker's introduction, and he must be very careful when encountering such items in the future. The ability is strange and extremely dangerous.
When Lu Ming was slandering, the auction suddenly became louder in the audience. The erosion mask, which was thought to be uninterested, was sought after by so many people, and the price was raised to 5000 kinnars in a short period of time.
Judging by the popularity of the bidding, this price is far from reaching the bottom line of these people's hearts.
Lu Ming reminisced about Baker's introduction to the mask, "You can solidify into another person according to your own wishes, and other people around you will also subconsciously recognize your identity."
This is much stronger than Lu Ming's change, it can directly replace the original owner!
Chapter 21: Tears of Life
After realizing the special nature of erosion masks, Lu Ming put away his contemptuous thoughts, but he is still not very interested in masks. One is that there is no need for them, and the other is that they are too dangerous.
Instead of fighting with the gang below, it's better to sit and watch the show.
In the tug-of-war of prices, the erosion mask was quickly raised to a high price of [-] kinnars.
Ten thousand gold coins, according to the weight of each Jinnar 10 grams, is a full 100 kilograms.
This weight was enough to crush Lu Ming before he could move, but now it was used to buy such a mask, which made Lu Ming sigh that rich people are rich people.
And after the price of [-] kinnars was announced, a few blushing Transcendents in the audience opened their mouths and finally said nothing.
The erosion mask was finally bought by a mysterious person in another box.
After the atmosphere created by the erosion mask, the second half of the auction became even more lively.
But most of the items are the items or raw materials of extraordinary professionals. Although Lu Ming, who can bid boldly, thought about it, he held back. They are not necessary items and there is no need to buy them at a premium at the auction.
And as the auction progressed, the last auction item: Tears of Life finally came to the stage.
Baker, who was the nominal seller, became even more excited.
"Presumably everyone here, most of them are here for the next lot."
"This is also the last lot in this auction"
"Tears of life!" With Baker's roar, a display cabinet made of crystal slowly rose in the middle of the table.
The tear of life filled with white light was carefully placed on the velvet cushion.
When the tears of life appeared, more than a dozen guards from the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce also came up to the stage, paying close attention to possible dangers around them.
"After the appraisal of Master Punk of the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce, it is confirmed that this tear of life not only has full vitality, but also ensures that everyone can gain a month's life after using it!"
"This means that the tears of life have the dual effects of vitality and law, and they are items bestowed by the gods before the Great Destruction!"
"The starting price: 1000 kinnars, each increase must not be less than [-] kinnars!"
"Hiss..." After Baker announced the starting price, a large number of participants took a breath.
This price far exceeds the starting price of the erosion mask, and is equal to the transaction price of the erosion mask.
And looking at a large group of powerful transcendents who are eager to try, everyone knows that the price will be raised soon.
"Ten thousand kinnars!"
"Fifteen thousand guineas." The No.2 bidder directly increased the price by one-third.
But that doesn't deter people interested in tears of life in the slightest.
Wayans, a third-order transcendent who was originally holding a one-month lifespan as a dispensable, became interested in it instantly after knowing that Tears of Life was blessed by the laws of the gods.
"Thirty thousand kinnars." As the strongest Transcendent in the audience, the wealth he possessed was beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Wayans gently quoted the price that made the audience quiet.
"Thirty-one thousand goldnars!" A mean female voice came, it was Ruth who had competed with Lu Ming for the golden fruit before.
"Huh? You want to argue with me?" Waynes, who was sitting in the hall, looked up at the box where Ruth was, and his questioning voice was full of oppression.
"Don't dare! But the tears of life are very important to my family of Magnus!"
"I also ask Mr. Waynes to hold your hand high." The man who was with Ruth explained aloud.
Wayans, a Tier [-] professional, is also a well-known figure in the Kryta Empire. It is rumored that he is only one step away from advancing to Tier [-], becoming an existence to be looked up to for life.
For such a character, Karl knew very well that the fallen Maxnus family had no strength to fight against.
"The Maxnus family? Then I won't suppress you." Waynes replied.
Before Ruth and Carl were happy, they went on to say, "Let's compete fairly, the highest bid wins!"
Waynes, who is also the heir of a big family, has never been short of money. Since they are all big nobles of the empire, then play with them.
And Ruth and Carl suddenly turned bitter. How can the declining nobleman compete for financial resources with the popular spicy chicken Waynes!
It's almost a losing battle.
But the need for tears of life forced the two of them to go all out and try.
When the two made up their minds, Wayans' indifferent voice came again: "Forty thousand kinnars."
There was no ups and downs in the tone, and it directly suppressed the noisy voice of the audience.
The audience who were still thinking about fishing in troubled waters were also frightened by Wayans' talented group.
After discussing with Ruth, Karl directly quoted their final price.
"Forty-six thousand guineas!"
"Fifty thousand kinnars." The indifferent voice seemed so ruthless, directly crushing the faith of the two of them.
In Baker's roar of confirmation, the tears of life finally fell to Wayans.
Just when Waynes was about to step forward to receive the tears of life, a voice came, almost the same as Waynes.
It seemed that Wayans hadn't come to the stage, but was still in the audience.
"Give me the tears of life." It was a middle-aged man wearing a mask with two lines of blood and tears.
And the mask is the erosion mask that was previously auctioned!
Facing the words of the middle-aged man, no one in the audience reacted.
Even Wayans himself subconsciously believed that the person in front of him was the one who took tears of life.
Seeing the tears of life that the middle-aged man approached step by step.
Lu Ming, who was watching the play, finally couldn't bear it anymore. He didn't know why the others didn't respond.
Everyone in the audience actually allowed a stranger to collect the tears of life, even the buyer Wayans was no exception.
You must know that Wayans has not paid the money yet, if this person really wants to take away the tears of life, only Lu Ming will suffer.
The money didn't earn a penny, but also lost a tear of life!
"Waynes!"
"Waynes!" Lu Ming shouted two times in succession, but no one answered him.
Lu Ming, who couldn't sit still anymore, picked up the decorations at hand and threw them on the ground.
The crackling sound finally woke up everyone. Looking at the middle-aged man who had walked up to the tears of life, Waynes said in a deep voice, "Who are you!"
The voice that had been indifferent until now finally had its ups and downs.Wayans also recognized that the person in front of him was wearing an erosion mask.
From the looks of it, it seemed that he wanted to pick Wayans' peaches!
With a loud roar, the extraordinary Wayans woke up everyone around him.
"The guy who is in the way!" The middle-aged man cursed in a low voice. He was about to succeed, but he was disturbed by someone.
For the nosy Lu Ming in the box, the middle-aged man can be said to hate it to the extreme.
But the situation in front of him didn't allow him to think too much, and Waynes and the guards of the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce, who had woken up, attacked him one after another.
Chapter 22: Malicious
Wayans, who shot with anger, carried an unrivaled power when he stabbed with his sword.
As the only Tier [-] professional on the scene, Waynes's sword directly used Waynes Tier [-] core skill: Time-Space Thorn.
Countless phantoms seem to be separated and melted on Waynes, and the whole person seems to disappear in this time and space.
As for the middle-aged man who was attacked, Waynes seemed to be everywhere in the surrounding space.
No matter which direction to evacuate, there are countless Wayans blocking him.
"Zizi" saw the middle-aged man who had nowhere to escape, and there was a grinding sound coming from his body, as if all the bones in his body were rubbing against each other.
In an instant, the middle-aged man swelled up, and countless hairs spread across his body.
Like a beast from legend.
The erosion mask worn on his face was also bounced off by the inflated figure, but he had no time to pay attention.
"Ding..." Waynes' sword finally pierced the middle-aged man's body, and there was a sound of metal collision.
"Beastman!"
"He's an orc bonebreaker!"
"Despicable robber!"
The broken bones that showed their original appearance caused bursts of exclamation.
The orcs are a race that lives next to the human empire, but they are hostile to each other.
Since the establishment of the two kingdoms, there have been fights between the two, and there has never been a period of peace.
Beastman's natural physique is also much stronger than that of human beings. In a single battle, among the same level, orcs almost have the upper hand.
The orc named Broken Bone in front of him was also an orc who fled to the vicinity of the Summermore Fortress. He had been choking the trade route of the Summermore Fortress for many years, and was hated by the merchants the most.
"Interesting." Wayans chuckled, "Even dull orcs are interested in Tears of Life?"
Facing Wayans' ridicule, Broken Bone didn't care at all.
With a flick of the tail behind him, Bone Broken, who had no hope of taking the Tears of Life, activated one of his own cores.
"Hidden"
As the most famous skill of the assassin profession, almost all assassins will learn the popular version of concealment even if they have not been given the core skill by God.
And the core skill is the hidden bone fragments, and it is also by virtue of this skill that he was able to retreat from Xia Moore's repeated encirclement and suppression.
"Ding ding ding" Seeing that the enemy was about to flee, Waynes stabbed at the broken bone at a very high speed, regardless of consumption.
Although it caused a certain amount of damage to the broken bone, the broken bone with orc physique resisted the damage of Waynes, resisting the urge to vomit blood, and disappeared in a wave of empty movement.
Waynes, who lost his target, searched for a while and found no trace, so he had no choice but to collect the tears of life.
In the white light cluster, Waynes felt a strong spiritual force and a kind of rule that seemed to be absent.
It can be said that this rule is more valuable than prolonging life by one month.
Especially for the young Wayans, now he has no worries about his lifespan, and he can be promoted to a fourth-tier professional in just one thought.
It's just that advancing from a low-level professional to an intermediate professional is a threshold for a transcendent existence. He wanted to accumulate as much as possible and chose to suppress it.
And obtained the tear of life, even if the law in it is an existence that Waynes can't understand at all, Waynes can still get some benefits by using the tear of life.
It may also be helpful for those who advance to high-level professionals in the future.
In front of everyone, Wayans swallowed the tears of life without hiding anything.
Holy white light radiated from Waynes' whole body, the bright light didn't feel dazzling at all.
After a short while, Waynes showed a slight smile, and it could be seen that Wayans had gained enough benefits from this tear of life.
"President Baker, is the seller of the Tears of Life present?" Wayans asked Baker suddenly after absorbing the Tears of Life.
"Hmm..." When Baker hesitated and didn't know how to answer, Lu Ming stood up in the form of Andrews.
"I am." Lu Ming, who had been watching the play for a long time, agreed, he wanted to see what Waynes wanted to say.
"What's your name?" Wayans let go of his usual arrogance.
Respect is the best way to communicate with someone who can sell items like Tears of Life.
"Anrus, former member of the Summermoor Fortress Guard." Lu Ming directly revealed all of Andrews' secrets.
Looking at Lu Ming who answered seriously, Wayans' eyes were filled with the meaning of I believe you.
When would an ordinary garrison member be able to own this kind of treasure and be willing to sell it.
Wayans was 100% sure that this was just a cover-up by the other party, so he didn't expose much, and asked again: "Do you have any other Tears of Life for sale?"
"I will also give you fifty thousand kinnars for every tear of life!"
"The tears of life are gone now."
"But I have a shop that sells some precious items. There is a world where you can take a look."
"The name is Quaggan Lodge."
After finishing speaking, he turned around, no matter what the expressions of the people behind him were, he left Shi Shiran on the road that the crowd got out of the way.
A mysterious figure who is worthy of the upcoming 4th-level professional, a shop that is willing to sell tears of life.
With Lu Ming's deliberate maintenance, the name of Quaggan Hut and Andrews will spread throughout Summermore Fortress.
There is also deterrence, which can deter some transcendent people with malicious intentions, and it also paves the way for the grocery store to do business in the future.
Just wearing Andrews' face and walking all the way as a wanted person in Fort Summermore, but no one dared to attack Lu Ming.
Even Carl and Ruth who came out of the VIP box did not dare to provoke Lu Ming again.
Ruth never imagined that the person who competed with her for the golden fruit before was actually the owner of Tears of Life.
"You can suppress this resentment, the family can't afford to provoke this kind of person anymore." Carl looked at the resentment in Ruth's eyes and advised.
"I will, brother!"
"If it weren't for your nephew who hasn't advanced to the first-level professional and needs this golden fruit, I wouldn't have fought him for it before."
Ruth replied absent-mindedly, and suddenly it occurred to her mind whether there was only one person who called himself Andrews in a little-known quaggan hut.
If it were a person, then this Andrews would not be as mysterious as he appeared.
Not a mysterious person who dared to ignore the third-tier powerhouse, but a low-level guard member who was lucky enough to get the tears of life...
"If that's the case, maybe there are tears of life in him!"
Ruth was muttering to herself, and didn't listen to a word of what her elder brother Carl said.
And Lu Ming, who returned to the Kungan Hut without being attacked in the slightest, was still complacent about his strategy.
Not only did he cleanse Andrews' identity again, but he also established his reputation in Fort Summermoor. In the future, he would be able to inquire about news or save his good brother Shi An.
Chapter 23: Contract
Not long after, Baker sent the [-] kinnars left over from the purchase of the golden fruit to the Quaggan Hut as promised. He also brought the order that Andrews be released from the wanted list. He is now a free man. .
This news didn't make Lu Ming care too much. It was the golden Gnar who made Lu Mingshi happy. After sending Baker away, the piles of Gnar dazzled Lu Ming's eyes.
"Money! I finally have money!" Lu Ming roared in his heart.
"Tears of Life sold a total of [-] Jinnars, of which the handling fee was [-] Jinnars."
"The store upgrade has not yet been completed, and the host's income will be drawn 90.00% to be used for store decoration!"
"The host has a surplus of 1250 Jinnars from this transaction, and 3500 Jinnars are used to buy the golden fruit."
"Balance: -2250 Kinnar."
The cold electronic sound knocked Lu Ming down from heaven without hesitation.
"It's too dark! Lingkey, can you give me some extra money?"
Lu Ming, who had been cheated several times, was a little bit cowardly even angrily scolding the system, so he could only babble.
Lu Ming, whose ending has not changed at all, finally sighed: "All right, earn money, isn't it just for you to spend the spirit key?"
"I'm happy with the flowers, I'm happy with the flowers!"
"Ding Dong, thank the host for your affirmation of the system, and reward the host with two clerk contracts."
There are still benefits to boasting the system?Lu Ming couldn't help being overjoyed, and quickly clicked on the system panel, and on the two parchment icons was written the word "receive".
Looking at the two clerk contracts that seemed to fall out of the void, Lu Ming clearly understood the effect and method of using this contract.
It is said to be a contract, but it is actually similar to a contract in daily life, as long as both parties voluntarily sign it, it is just more mandatory.
After signing the contract, as the clerk, he must obey the work arrangement of Lu Ming, the owner of the Kungan Hut.
Whether it's going to battle, selling items, keeping secrets, etc., it's all covered.
The owner, Lu Ming, has the right to formulate benefits for the staff.Before signing the contract, you can add and change at will, and the termination of the contract only needs to be done unilaterally by Lu Ming.
Bound by extraordinary power, the clerk contract has unparalleled execution.
Just like keeping secrets, after signing the contract, the clerk cannot convey the secrets about Lu Ming and the Kungan Hut in any way without Lu Ming's nod.
Not to mention the execution of Lu Ming's orders, such as going out to battle, killing enemies, etc.
"What kind of clerk contract is this? Even a devil's contract is nothing more than that,"
"I really sold my soul. Apart from the fact that the content of the contract must be clearly stated and signed voluntarily, this clerk's contract is just like a slave contract."
Lu Ming despised the naming of contracts by the system, but consciously found Andrews and Liu Sandao who had been trapped for a long time.
Decibel clarified the content of the clerk's contract in Nata, Chinese and the two of them. The remuneration that must be given in the contract is that Lu Ming's condition is three meals a day.
After seeing Lu Ming's ever-changing situation and clearly knowing the gap between himself and Kududu, Andrews simply bit his finger and made a mark after listening to Lu Ming's conditions.
Andrews never wanted to experience such a hungry and full day of being imprisoned, and besides this option, Andrews also believed that the other party would not let him go easily.
Andrews, who has no background, also understands that he should report his disappearance at most, and no one will come to rescue him.
Compared to Andrews' straightforwardness, Liu Sandao was lost in thought.
From the perspective of a modern person, it is difficult to accept such a thing that even sells one's soul.
Moreover, after enjoying the status as an awakened person in the men in black organization, Liu Sandao refused from the bottom of his heart if he wanted to sell himself as a slave.
What's more, Liu Sandao was beaten by Kududu and Andrews from the beginning to the end, and Lu Ming has been lying on the wall to watch the show.
Surrendering to such a person made Liu Sandao even more unconvinced.
"It seems that you don't intend to sign this contract?"
"You play in person, only if you can beat me, I will sign!"
"Otherwise, I would rather die than obey!" Liu Sandao, who insisted on this last stubbornness, challenged angrily.
But I thought in my heart: "Either I become angry and give Xiao Ye a good time, or I am so excited that I can't stand it and let Xiao Ye succeed in killing me!"
"You won't dare!" Liu Sandao snorted.
"Fulfill your wish!" Lu Ming let go of the restriction on Liu Sandao.
"Let you go first!"
"Double Shadow Knife!" As soon as he made a move, it was his nirvana. Liu Sandao didn't hesitate, and rushed to Lu Ming to create a long knife.
"It's too slow!" Lu Ming, who has unlocked the attribute of mental strength, has reached the strongest state of a first-tier professional in all aspects of his physical fitness.
Looking at the ghost knife that turned into three knife shadows in front of him, Lu Ming only felt that the blade was light and the speed was extremely slow.
Turning slightly to one side, Lu Ming avoided Liu Sandao's stunt. With a twist of his right index finger, a small stone hit Liu Sandao's blade.
The long knife trembling with great force fell, and Liu Sandao, who was still in a daze, was bullied by Lu Ming, and fell down with a punch.
"you!"
Liu Sandao struggled to get up from the ground, wanted to curse a few words, but finally turned into a long sigh.
"I sign!"
After Xi mentioned two clerks who would work without food and lodging, Lu Ming arranged them for the gate of Xiangtianwaitian and the gate of Blue Star respectively.
Without Lu Ming's permission, people who enter the Quaggan Hut through the two gates can only see the scene of this gate.Each other is an illusory existence.
"Tuk tuk tuk" there was another knock on the door of Tianwaitian, and it wasn't long before Baker was sent away, who else would come?
Lu Ming was a little puzzled. The two clerks who were arranged to wash and tidy up their appearance hadn't taken their seats yet. Lu Ming, who still had the appearance of Andrews, saw a new visitor.
"Waynes? What are you doing here?"
Facing Lu Ming who called him by his first name, Waynes wasn't too angry. He didn't feel that way at the auction before.
After returning to the foothold, Waynes realized that it was Lu Ming who reminded him to wake up and face the broken bones.
A person who is facing the effect of the shattering device wakes up faster than him who is about to reach the fourth level, or the other party is not affected at all.
No matter which one it is, it proves that Lu Ming has extraordinary strength.
"Thank you for your help at the auction house, I came here to express my gratitude."
"Your store, I also want to visit and see if I am lucky enough to bring back a few items."
Lu Ming suddenly realized that it was indeed Lu Ming's idea to let Waynes come to the shop.
It's just that I thought that I could buy and sell items in the mall after having Jinnar, but I never thought that now not only there is no Jinnar, but I owe the system a whole lot of debt.
Lu Ming said with a little embarrassment: "The goods in the store haven't arrived yet, let's talk about it later."
"A helping hand is also helping myself, so don't worry about it."
