Chapter 155: Chapter 155
Of course, items that amplify power couldn’t possibly release such tremendous strength in an instant. But summoning scrolls could only be used twice temporarily, and these two uses couldn’t be combined at the same time.
However, items that improve one’s strength permanently could be very different.
After some thought, Du You pulled out the Ring of the Brave Warrior.
Ring of the Brave Warrior: Increase strength by 4, speed by 5 (Luminous White)
"This item should be enough," Du You said, feeling a bit reluctant, though the Ring of the Brave Warrior was indeed of no use to him.
"Alright, I’m going to check." The elf attendant replied quickly, "The other party has agreed to the trade."
Du You rolled his eyes. Of course, the other party would agree. On the surface, the two items were almost the same value. However, to most warriors, the Ring of the Brave Warrior was far more valuable than the summoning scroll.
After completing the transaction, Du You didn’t stay any longer; the intermediary fee was 5% of the item’s value, which both parties had to pay.
Completing a deal was similar to auctioning two items. The normal auction would charge up to 5%, but here it was a fixed percentage.
He thought for a moment, maybe it would be better to take a stroll around the local market. There might be some good stuff around, it all comes down to luck and whether they’re suitable.
Upon leaving the auction house, a skill crystal, Spiritual Perception, appeared in Du You’s hand.
He activated it casually, and immediately, Spiritual Perception appeared on his skill panel. Suddenly, Du You sensed a difference in his surroundings. The range of his Spiritual Perception extended from eight to ten meters in an instant.
Within this ten-meter radius, everything became crystal clear; a wave of information flooded his mind, causing Du You to feel slightly dizzy. It took him a while to adjust.
And within the eight-meter radius, his perceptions had become sharper, detecting even a mosquito flying by, with every detail about it clearly felt.
What a magical experience, Du You thought, the exchange of this skill was worth it. In the future, within the range of his Spiritual Perception, he would be able to clearly sense all enemy spells and long-range attacks.
If he had this skill last time, he could have detected the God Archer’s attack from ten meters away. This ten-meter buffer zone would be more than enough for him to dodge, making the difference between heavy and minor injuries. As long as he could improve the level of his Spiritual Perception, his detection range would get broader and broader, eventually extending to control a few dozen meters or even hundreds of meters.
"By the way, what’s the deal with that elf? Why are there elves in our Home World?"
Du You doesn’t recall if he has seen any before, but there are no clear memories of them.
"Elves, an alien creature, do not originate from Earth. Elves primarily appear on Earth by being captured or through bloodline evolution. Getting an elf’s bloodline can accept your own evolution into an elf."
Du You waved his hand dismissively, "Impossible, if it’s a person who has inherited the elf bloodline, their level must not be low, they wouldn’t work as attendants." Du You was clear about this, since he hadn’t even encountered bloodline things.
"The second method is capture. Elves captured from the Other World, and brought here at a high price, can work as attendants or slaves. Many large shops have employees from the Other World."
Du You nodded silently, "So we can play it ."
Back on Earth from his previous life, Du You knew that several shops had special services tailored to the peculiar tastes of some customers, which were very popular. Of course, in some large stores, all the receptionists are young and attractive girls, as a way to lure customers.
In this world, they probably think the same way, but play on a higher level. More importantly, these creatures captured from the Other World are completely loyal, so there’s no need to worry about betrayal.
This made Du You want to capture a few of his own. He would not admit that he was drawn by the elves’ beauty. He was actually looking for someone to help him deal with things, yes, that’s what it was.
"Should I investigate the concrete capture methods? There are several popular areas for producing creatures from the Other World on the internet, and there are all kinds of methods for capture, contracts, tools..."
"Enough, stop talking about these useless things." Du You was awakened by his wristwatch and shook his head, not going into the topic.
Even though he was very tempted, he knew how expensive living creatures could be. Most stores couldn’t afford it; couldn’t he tell? He was only just starting to accumulate wealth, and he didn’t want to waste it on this.
Though he held the temptation, Du You still had a certain level of self-control.
"I won’t think about it anymore, let’s just see if there’s anything worthwhile in the market, I still have many things to take care of."
Du You strolled around the market and soon arrived at a blacksmith’s shop, where he sold all his Black Flame Iron ingots. Sure enough, there wasn’t much profit to be made from this, as the prices were fixed.
Then, he dealt with all the other low-level equipment and various other items he had brought back. Trading items also had rules; quantity couldn’t make up for quality.
You can’t really get what you need by trading a lot of low-level items, so it’s better to exchange them for Crystal Coins. If there were items he needed, maybe he could buy them directly with money.
When all these items were dealt with, the amount of Crystal Coins Du You had for trading had increased to a considerable extent. He now had over thirty thousand Crystal Coins in his wristwatch account.
"I really didn’t expect these items to be so valuable."
As he went along, Du You found himself on a street selling skill books. Walking and looking around, these skills were his favorite to check out. If he found what he needed, he would just buy it. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝔫𝔢𝔱
Suddenly, Du You felt Xiaozi, who was linked with his mind, becoming restless. "Calm down, what’s up? You sensed something helpful to you, what is it?" Du You kept walking and looking around without revealing anything.
Finally, Du You recognized what made Xiaozi so excited—it was a skill stone.
Skill Stone: Thunder Light Orb, Condenses thunder and lightning energy to form a Thunder Light Orb that can attack enemies.
It’s a very ordinary skill, although it has the Thunder and Lightning attribute. Du You had seen Thunder and Lightning skills before, but Xiaozi had never shown any reaction.
What’s different this time? Could it be because it’s in a carrier? This is a crystal stone, could there be something wrong with the crystal stone itself?
Du You wasn’t stingy. He asked for the price and quickly bought it with two thousand Crystal Coins. This wasn’t a very powerful item; otherwise, the skill would not be so cheap.
