Chapter 769 - 730: Doing Business as a Scalper!
When Elda openly proposed three conditions in response to Da Fei’s public recruitment, Da Fei was stupefied, the global audience went wild, and the Divine Punishment City in the European Union Zone went even crazier!
—Bang! With a loud noise, the tavern door was slammed open, and the European Union players who had been watching the blacksmith’s shop swarmed in. Leading them was an Italian-looking player who held up a red rose and shouted passionately, "Your Highness Elda, please accept Piero’s fervent pursuit!"
Crashing down! As soon as he finished speaking, the Italian player leaned sideways and made a sliding tackle-like move, sliding all the way from the tavern door to the counter, kneeling to present the flower!
Da Fei was dumbfounded once again! What kind of godly figure is this in the European Union Zone?
At this moment, Elda calmly accepted the flower: "Thanks!"
Piero excitedly sang with passion, "You are my sunshine~~~~"
But before he could finish singing, the player behind stepped on him, flipping him to the ground: "Your Highness Elda, this is Ancient Glory Perfume from the Ancient Elf! I hope to express my deep love!"
Elda smiled as she accepted it: "Thank you!"
"Haha, she smiled! I am the true pursuer! Wahahaha!"
"Your Highness Elda, this is the Muse Goddess’s Servant Cloak, hope you like it!"
"Thank you! I like it very much!"
"Wahahaha, she said so many words, I am the real victor!"
...
At this moment, the entire tavern was boiling! Facing more and more fanatical crowds, Da Fei hastily carried two glasses of Holy Water and sat aside. And Elda, who was just clad in coarse cloth, instantly changed her outfit to become a fragrant and glamorous Cinderella.
Damn! A bar girl will always be a bar girl. And what Da Fei didn’t expect at all was that these players could actually pull out so many bizarre and unimaginable gifts on the fly! Truly, they are the highest-end players in the European Union Zone!
Now Da Fei started to pain-stakingly analyze the three conditions of the bar girl. The first condition, I’m unwilling, and can’t do it either! The second condition, win her in poker? This, I’m naturally a weakling at poker, how could I be a match for the computer? Third, haven’t thought it through? Not thinking it through means players have to keep pleasing her, right?
Wait, speaking of poker, didn’t I get a Vice Cheating Poker after defeating the Poker Hero in the Nightmare Space?
—Magic Poker: Gambling tool, toy, art treasure. The material selection is extremely expensive, the workmanship is extremely exquisite, and the painting is extremely gorgeous poker for magicians, allowing the user to transform any card’s suit and rank at will, can be used for cheating in casinos. (Warning: If discovered using cheating functions in casinos or gambling in taverns, severe unknown consequences will occur.)
Da Fei’s brow twitched. As long as I have this deck of poker, I should have no problem with the second condition. As for the third condition, I also have high-end chess and a teddy bear, which is enough to please her.
Ultimately, it’s still the first one! As long as I solve the first condition, the Angel Bar Girl and that Blazing Angel Battle Armor will be mine! The problem is, damn, times have changed, there are no Siege Machines to bombard, no Divine Power Barrier that can instantly kill everyone on the field, even if my success in China’s Divine Punishment City could be replicated, could it work with so many people interfering?
And while Da Fei was deep in thought, a Knight Player came up to Da Fei: "Mr. Da Fei, hello, can I sit here?"
Da Fei looked up and saw a French player named Napoleon. Hmm? Have I met you before?
Da Fei made an ’oh’ sound: "Please sit!"
Napoleon smiled and said, "In the previous match, I lost to Mr. Da Fei willingly, so I want to make friends with Mr. Da Fei."
—System Prompt: European Union Zone France player Napoleon applies to become your friend, do you agree?
No wonder the name sounded familiar, Da Fei made another ’oh’ sound: "No problem, no problem! Agree!"
Napoleon was overjoyed: "It’s my honor to make friends with Mr. Da Fei! I want to do a deal with Mr. Da Fei, even if Mr. Da Fei isn’t interested in my goods, it doesn’t matter; it’s just a chance to showcase treasures and conduct some cultural exchange."
Da Fei was instantly amused: "Cultural exchange, I like it, let me see your treasure."
"Alright." Having said that, Napoleon popped up a trade window, and then placed in it a silver helmet and a dolphin-image necklace.
—Captain’s hat: B-grade strategic treasure, helmet equipment slot, Attack +1, Defense +1, Speed +1, Damage +1, Life +1, Morale +1, with all attributes extra +1 at sea.
—Dolphin Necklace: B-grade strategic treasure, necklace equipment slot, Command Power +300, Luck +3, can combine with the B-grade strategic treasure Captain’s Sword and Captain’s Hat to form the Divine Artifact "Heart of the Ocean".
Heart of the Ocean: Increase fleet speed by 20%, fleet member stamina by 20%, and resistance to storm waves by 20%. (Effective only when equipped by the Captain or First Officer)
...
Captain’s hat! Combined Divine Artifact Heart of the Ocean! In that instant, Da Fei lost his composure! Turns out the Captain’s Sword, the treasure I obtained first, is actually a component of a combined divine artifact? Besides the Mana Source, another divine artifact could be combined from B-grade treasures? I can’t believe there’s the Heart of the Ocean?
If I have this Heart of the Ocean, I’ll have more assurance when venturing into the Eastern World, and what’s more comforting is that this divine artifact set can be worn by the First Officer, so it won’t conflict with my own divine equipment!
Just as I was tempted, Napoleon spoke up: "Mr. Da Fei, the whole world is studying you, and we are no exception. We know the sword you have is the Captain’s Sword, and our Arc de Triomphe Team is also collecting this final component, so completing the collection is only a matter of time. However, the special effect of this combined divine artifact isn’t very attractive to us, and our goal isn’t the ocean, but I think Mr. Da Fei definitely needs it?"
Oh my! The whole world is studying me, no wonder I feel uncomfortable as soon as I appear in public?
Da Fei coughed dryly and said, "Then what’s your asking price for the exchange?"
Napoleon solemnly extended both hands: "We need 10 Angels! We don’t believe you are here for tourism, you can’t possibly have only one troop. I heard you are the City Lord of China’s Divine Punishment City, so it’s even less possible for you to come to the European Union Zone without a purpose."
Da Fei was amused and helpless, I really am here for tourism! Why don’t you believe it? Well, I guess nobody would believe it.
Napoleon continued: "Actually, our plan is to purchase warriors at high prices from players of various countries present, accumulating 10 Angels is just a matter of time. But Mr. Da Fei, let me be clear with you, the British will never let you achieve anything here, they will definitely drag you down from behind, so your best choice is to trade arms."
Trading arms? In that instant, Da Fei had an epiphany!
Exactly, the British have been operating here for a long time, so of course they don’t lack troops. But the other countries in the European Union Zone who have just arrived here urgently need troops. They will try every means to gather forces as quickly as possible.
And what’s my advantage? A 30% discount! They need 500 Demon Essences to buy one Angel, I only need 350 Essences. That’s a price difference of 150 Essences, a substantial profit! And more importantly, I have a capital of 6600 Demon Essences! If I set up a stall with "450 Demon Essences for an Angel," won’t I make a profit easily?
That’s right! This place is concentrated with the top elites and wealthy teams in the European Union, once they develop their first batch of troops, the momentum will only grow stronger, and they will continue buying from me. As I keep trading back and forth, various divine artifacts for essences, essences for divine artifacts, won’t I make a great deal by the time I return home?
Haha, wahahaha! Yes, being a trader, that’s what I should do, I’ll make the entire European Union Zone’s experts work for me.
As for Elda? Da Fei frowned, there’s no solution for now, at least not now. Besides, the European Union Zone has Elda, doesn’t China Region too? I must stabilize my footing, anyway, gaining it is fortune, losing it is fate, just watch the development during the transaction.
Thus, with his mind clear, Da Fei seemingly reluctantly extended one hand to Napoleon: "5 Angels! I can only sell you 5 Angels at once now." I conquered the world with less than the power of 5 Angels, they as master operators will have no problem.
Napoleon’s face changed: "Friend, that’s impossible!"
Da Fei shook his head and sighed: "I know this condition is impossible, and it’s unfair to friends, so I can add an extra 3 million Gold Coins!"
Napoleon shook his head hastily: "We are a large guild, we don’t lack Gold Coins! We need Angels, we need Demon Essences!"
Oh, in this world of Angels, no one cares about a huge sum like 3 million Gold Coins? Da Fei felt extremely frustrated: "This could allow you to send 10 more team members here!"
Napoleon shook his head: "That won’t do, how about we offer you 10 million Gold Coins plus a divine artifact, and you sell the BOSS-level Angel beside you to me? 20 million Gold Coins is also fine!"
Oh my! This is my Little Honey! Can she be sold?
Da Fei’s face turned displeased: "Then there’s no choice, I’ll have to sell my troops to others, I believe Germany and Sweden will also need them."
Napoleon gritted his teeth: "Friend, you truly are a cunning Chinese, deal!"
Da Fei laughed heartily: "Come on, my friend, you will not regret it."
Thus, under the pursuit of numerous reporters, amidst the side glances of numerous players, the two left the noisy tavern for the Plaza’s Mercenary Store.
The mercenary boss took Da Fei’s demon essence and praised: "Truly worthy of the Otherworld Warrior, thank you for your contribution to Divine Punishment City, 5 Angel Soldiers will be sent over immediately."
Da Fei’s eyebrow twitched, he said "contribution," does buying troops count as merit points? If that’s the case, then isn’t this deal even more necessary?
