The Path to Sainthood from Fairy Tail
Chapter 63 Ye Zhilan
Li Xuan was speechless and said, "Do you think I'm mentally retarded? Trading my fourth-level demon crystal for your third-level insect crystal? Aren't you afraid of getting your arm chopped off if you do business this way?"
The stall owner wasn't angry at being exposed. Instead, he leaned closer and said to Li Xuan, "Hey, little brother, I have inside information. The three major forces are preparing a counterattack!"
"Is your news true?"
The stall owner patted his chest and said, "Of course it's true. I can guarantee it with my future happiness!"
"That's not right. If we attack the Zerg, the number of insect crystals will increase. According to supply and demand, the price won't increase even if it drops a little! Moreover, the quality of demon crystals is generally higher than that of insect crystals. Aren't you really afraid of getting your legs broken by doing business this way?"
Li Xuan read out the encyclopedia in front of him.
The knowledge about insect crystals and demon crystals was found out by Xiaobai.
If he had been fooled and exchanged the fourth-level demon crystal for the third-level insect crystal, Li Xuan might have really cut off the stall owner's legs.
Feeling that the conversation was over, Li Xuan turned around and left.
But the stall owner called out to him, "Wait a minute, handsome boy!"
The compliments you give to others always have unexpected effects.
Li Xuan was actually stopped by him.
"Anything else?"
The stall owner explained, "In fact, the supply and demand relationship is also linked to the overall environment. Although war will bring more insect crystals, the corresponding consumption of insect crystals will also increase sharply. To put it bluntly, once the war is tense, the supply of insect crystals will definitely exceed the demand!"
Li Xuan didn't want to discuss economics with the stall owner, so he nodded and prepared to turn around and leave.
"Wait! Young man, I see you have extraordinary talent. How about we just become friends and I'll take a small loss in exchange for your demon crystals, five third-level insect crystals?"
As he spoke, the stall owner took out four round insect crystals from somewhere, which were exactly the same as the one on the stall.
"Your family has quite a few heirlooms, but I can't use them."
"That's wrong. The energy contained in the insect crystal is very pure. Whether it is used for absorption or as a crafting material, it is very suitable!"
Li Xuan held his forehead in silence, "Brother, you put it so beautifully. Isn't it the same with demon crystals? If you treat me like a fool again, I will call for help."
"Don't get excited, little brother. Even if the deal doesn't go through, there's still righteousness. This is my business card. If you want to sell something, you can contact me!"
Li Xuan took the business card and found that it said, Interstellar Environmental Protection Company, General Manager, Ye Zhilan.
"Is this you?" After seeing such an elegant name on the business card, it was completely incompatible with the man in front of him.
"It's absolutely genuine! By the way, if you encounter any problems in the future, you can come to me. We will meet again!"
Li Xuan put away the business card and said without hesitation: "I hope I won't see you, a liar, again in the future."
If Li Xuan hadn't felt that Ye Zhilan looked familiar, he wouldn't have stayed in front of the stall for such a long time.
Unfortunately, even after such a long and in-depth communication, Li Xuan still couldn't remember where he had seen this person.
After the episode, Li Xuan returned to Lao Wang's team.
They had been waiting in the rest area, not that they didn't want to go out shopping.
It’s just that the prices here are too high, and they are short of money, so they spend the money they get as soon as possible.
Either use it to improve your strength and increase your survival rate for the next mission, or use it for pleasure and enjoy the blessings of the rest of your life in advance.
Lao Wang is more extreme. He directly took out a loan to buy a spaceship. Apart from meeting basic living needs, he used the remaining money to repay the loan.
After the battle with the Shadow Wolf, the brother and sister had obviously grown much more sensible. Instead of going to more dangerous places for training, they stayed in the forest looking for monsters to practice with.
But even so, Lao Wang and others still have the opportunity to take action.
In a dense forest, the wolves, tigers and leopards that are visible are not the most dangerous. What we need to be wary of are the predators hiding in the dark.
They blend in with the surrounding environment and are difficult to notice even when passing by.
When someone walks by, they will attack from a tricky angle and kill them with one blow.
In addition, there are some seemingly harmless monsters, but once they start fighting, they are even more brutal than those vicious predators.
As a professional mercenary team, Lao Wang and others have rich experience, which enables them to find hidden dangers around them at the first opportunity.
The most representative one is that when the brother and sister were walking in front, they met a white rabbit with red eyes.
This rabbit looks no different from an ordinary rabbit.
Just when Fumini was about to catch the rabbit and give it a good beating, Hawkeye's bullet got there first and killed the rabbit directly.
"Demon rabbits were once the product of the Wan Yao Laboratory, a fusion of low-level demons and ordinary rabbits. These rabbits appear harmless on the surface, but once you get close, they open their mouths, revealing their jagged teeth, and devour their prey!"
Hawkeye then picked up the rabbit's body and opened its mouth.
The rabbit's mouth was like a rubber band and was pulled open directly by Hawkeye.
The devil rabbit's mouth is clearly visible, with rows of sharp teeth inside. If you are eaten by this rabbit, the consequences can be imagined.
Fumini was also frightened after seeing the devil rabbit's mouth. If she had approached the devil rabbit without any precautions just now, she would probably be left with only half of her body now.
……
The three-day monster hunting trip went smoothly, and Li Xuan followed the large group back to the gathering place.
After the Shadow Wolf, Li Xuan no longer had a chance to fight. Most of the monsters he encountered were dealt with by Lao Wang's team and Richard and his sister.
After returning to the gathering place, Li Xuan discovered that the stall where Ye Zhilan was was vacant. Only those unwanted "antiques" were left on the stall. The most valuable third-level insect crystal disappeared along with Ye Zhilan.
As expected, the only real things on that stall were Ye Zhilan and that pile of insect crystals.
When the time came, everyone came to the teleportation array and prepared to go to the space station on the Monster Hunting Planet.
……
In the endless starry sky, a dark purple warship was moving slowly.
Unlike the quiet outside, the inside of the battleship is extremely lively.
The emotions of the people on the battleship reached an unprecedented level.
Their leader, the Dragon King, has returned.
A weathered figure walked in the corridor, and next to him was a long-legged woman in uniform and black-framed glasses.
As she walked, she said, "Lord Dragon King was gone for a total of 364 days, 23 hours, and 59 seconds, almost a full year. During this time, the Dragon King's fleet has been following his instructions, traveling through the universe, taking in desperate individuals, and then having them fight against the Zerg and demons."
The vicissitudes of life uncle Ye Zhilan's mind moved, and his face began to change slightly. If Li Xuan saw him again, he would definitely be shocked. This man was the middle-aged uncle who was bold enough to rob a bank in a hover car and liked to commit suicide in front of the police.
