Chapter 478: Chapter 478

Previously, time was too tight, and for the silly antics of Du You and the two sisters at home, there wasn’t much time for shopping. But this time it was different. The two sisters went to the market to restock some potions.

After the College Battle, the prices of a great number of goods started to fall, no more domination like before.

However, the prices of items needed to construct territories still hadn’t dropped, but their rate of increase had slightly slowed down. It seems that in no time they will reach their peak and then gradually decline.

That doesn’t concern Du You though.

As a matter of fact, the two sisters didn’t really need to replace much of their equipment. Although their gear was not all-inclusive, they had quite high-tier gear, basically all red and deep red, Du You did not short them.

Eventually, Lin Yucha replaced her Extreme Speed Boots with a superior pair. The name was actually the same.

Extreme Speed Boots: Increase speed by 15, increase evasion (Red)

The white Extreme Speed Boots that were switched out were given to Lin Yushi, it can at least increase her speed a bit.

As for Lin Yushi, after wandering around, she didn’t really see anything she liked and ended up just buying a necklace.

Hawk Eye Necklace: Increase eye power (Red)

Du You, on the other hand, swapped his Blessing Amulet for a Little Bright Amulet, relegating the Blessing Amulet over to Lin Yucha.

Blessing Amulet: Slightly heals self-inflicted wounds, speeds up physical recovery. (Light white)

Little Bright Amulet: Slowly restores physical strength and heals wounds, includes dispel ability, can remove debuffs and poison status. (Deep Red)

The deep-red-tier Little Bright Amulet can provide a large amount of healing effect for Du You. Although he hardly gets injured, it’s better to remain prepared, right?

Besides, if Lin Yucha or Lin Yushi gets hurt, he could lend them the amulet temporarily for self-recovery.

Being low on healing ability, purchasing such an amulet was a massive help for Du You. However, this amulet also cost him dearly, one hundred thousand Crystal Coins were spent just like that.

Although Du You was much richer than before, it was quite an expenditure to fork out a hundred thousand Crystal Coins at once, practically blowing almost half of his current fortune. He really needed to think of ways to make more money.

Since he had already gathered the equipment he required before the College Battle, he had not bought anything more suited to him now. The next two days were set aside for rest.

Even though the College Battle didn’t last long, his body still contained some Law Force that needed time to dissipate.

Also, because of the continuous fight with professionals these last two days, Du You had been on edge. He needed time to unwind. Professionals were unlike the indigenous peoples; even Du You found himself often in perilous situations.

However, after experiencing this battle, Du You’s combat experience significantly improved. He will adapt better when facing formidable enemies in the future, and surely, the two sisters would have been the same.

"Du You, you’re not busy with anything at the moment, right?" Suddenly, Xi Qianxue sent him a message.

Du You, somewhat surprised, answered: "Not at all, do you need something? Don’t tell me you want to invite me to the Other World, I can’t go now. I already have my next exploration destination planned."

Du You didn’t disclose it out and the other party did not probe into it; these were some unspoken rules to be respected.

"You’ve figured it out so quickly, that’s fine, it’s not about that. I’m simply asking if you’re interested in joining a legion."

"A legion? What legion? I’m not ready to join any group."

Xi Qianxue continued, "Not one of those groups but ours, the Capital University’s legion, in other words, the student council internal organization."

Du You pondered, then he asked, "What are the requirements after joining?"

"Not much of anything major, mainly managing the other members in the legion, having more capability and strength gets higher positions, it’s generally like an administrative department. Once you join any of the larger groups in the future, it will basically be modeled after this; you can get used to it beforehand. The legion will also frequently assign tasks, which come with rewards."

As expected, there are tasks to be performed, Du You frowned. He didn’t fancy being managed by others nor managing others. Besides, with all his secrets, his current strength wasn’t yet enough to warrant their exposure.

"I’ll think about it." Du You was forced to leave it at that in the end.

"I know your personality makes you reluctant to join, but it’s inevitable. It’s okay, you’re only a freshman now, you’ll have plenty of time in the future, do think about it carefully."

Upon finishing their conversation, Xi Qianxue let out a sigh, feeling unusually disappointed. Despite her personal invitation, this guy was still unwilling to join, what a pain.

Du You’s performance this time was too astonishing; very few have performed this well before reaching the third tier. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✶𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✶𝓷𝓮𝓽

While it’s true that there are many formidable professionals in the student council, among the freshmen, Du You was one of a kind. If she could successfully recruit him, it would be a significant aide in her future, and it wouldn’t be a bad thing for Du You himself.

But considering Du You’s personality, it really isn’t feasible. She thought of Li Mengyao and felt dejected. This time her invitation to Du You failed, she knew Li Mengyao wouldn’t miss the opportunity to use this against her.

Regardless of right, wrong, or moral duty, one has to strike down competition to climb the ranks.

Meanwhile, Du You shook the matter off. After all, it had nothing to do with him. He never intended to join the student council, had it not been awkward to reject her outright, he would’ve declined then and there.

Oh well, why bother? He could just rest well for the time being, later on, establish his territory. Once his territory is established, he becomes a power unto himself. Whether it’s setting up a company or otherwise, it would be way better than joining others.

The bathroom door swung open and the two sisters emerged, looking refreshingly beautiful. Du You’s flames ignited abruptly. To hell with the student council and their legions! None mattered more than the present enjoyment.

"Ladies, care to converse about life together?"

"Humph, master is really annoying, life, huh? More like talking about people."

Du You laughed heartily: "Hahahaha, they’re the same, they’re the same, the result is almost identical either way." Saying this, Du You strode over to them. Amid their sulky grunts, he wrapped his arms around the two of them and walked towards his room. Soon after, familiar enticing sounds wafted around and the villa bloomed with spring once more.
