PFC Chapter 1439: Unexpected and Impatient
Chapter 1439: Unexpected and Impatient
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, both Loris and Xi Na showed an irrepressible eagerness on their faces, and said in unison: "Let me go first!"
Hearing the other party say the same words as themselves, the faces of the two leaders became gloomy again.
Although this was the first time that the two reached a certain agreement, it was not difficult to see from their eyes that they obviously still wanted to kill each other.
"You two, don't forget that we still have a common enemy, the Lich. Since we are about to fight side by side, why not start to adapt to each other from now on."
Just when the two were about to explode, Lei Xiao's voice rang out, and he said with a smile: "Then both of you should show us your exchangeable items together."
Seeing Lei Xiao, the owner of the equipment, speaking, Loris and Sina didn't say anything else. After each of them snorted coldly, they both waved their hands and placed the replacement items that they had prepared long ago on the negotiation table.
As the two of them moved, the entire negotiation table instantly became sparkling.
Lei Xiao looked carefully and found that both of them had taken out the same type of interchangeable items, all of which were crystal clear crystals.
Loris only took out one crystal, which was a fist-sized spherical gem. It looked crystal clear and exquisite, and it was obvious that it had undergone a miraculous polishing process.
Inside the gem, energy streams of different colors converge one after another, just like a rainbow after the rain.
It’s just that the energy flow inside the gem is obviously dim, giving it a gray feeling.
Lei Xiao was not unfamiliar with this kind of gemstone. It was a [God's Stone] that was obviously in a dormant state! It was exactly the same as the situation when Xiaoxing, Xiaoyue, and Dazhuang were just peeled off from the Blood Dark Tree!
On Xina's side, there were ten palm-sized crystal clusters arranged in sequence. Although they had not been polished, they were smooth and warm throughout, and all emitted a dazzling golden light.
Although this kind of crystal was the first time Lei Xiao saw it, he vaguely felt a sense of familiarity.
"I think His Majesty has already figured it out. This is a dormant God's Stone. It would be perfect for Yi to take a set of level 6 equipment from His Majesty."
Loris keenly noticed Lei Xiao's slightly widened eyes, and with a relaxed look on his lion face, he first introduced: "I accidentally found this [God's Stone] in a cave a few months ago. I originally planned to wait for it to wake up and serve the alliance, but I heard that there seemed to be stone elves around His Majesty the Human Race, so I had to reluctantly give it up."
Needless to say, Loris's remarks were obviously prepared temporarily for Lei Xiao. No matter who the owner of the equipment was, he intended to exchange it for this dormant [God's Stone].
After hearing what Loris said, the strong men of the Rainforest Fortress Alliance who knew that this was a [God's Stone] remained calm, while the strong men of the Desert Alliance cast curious glances at him.
For the strong men from outside the realm, the existence of the [God's Stone] is not a secret.
A considerable number of knowledgeable and powerful people are clearly aware of the existence of the "Key to Truth" and "Gate of Truth" that match the [God's Stone]. They even know that collecting more [God's Stone] is the key to uncovering the truth of the Blank Era.
However, the [God's Stone] is an extremely rare item after all, and exploring the "Gate of Truth" often requires great risks. In addition, although the power of the stone elves is impressive, it is not indispensable to the forces of the outside world.
Therefore, most forces, especially third-rate and even second-rate forces, even if they obtain it by chance, mostly use it as a barter item in the Miying Market in exchange for something they need more.
After all, in the Outer Realm, where strength is respected, being able to strengthen oneself and survive is the bottom line. Compared with survival, exploring the truth of the blank era is obviously not a priority.
Only those first-rate forces standing at the top of all races might be interested in the [God's Stone] and go on to collect it specifically. Of course, we cannot rule out the existence of people like the Evil God's Chosen Son who use the [God's Stone] to do evil.
For Lei Xiao, collecting the [God's Stone] is undoubtedly a mission to move towards the truth of the world, and his position is naturally completely different from these forces.
However, even though he was determined to win, Lei Xiao noticed that Loris was ready to control him, so he naturally would not easily give a set of sixth-level equipment and a sixth-level magic potion to the other party. Instead, he restrained his mind and said calmly: "Your Excellency, Lord Rainforest Leader, can you let me take a closer look?"
"No problem. Your Majesty just let me play with the sixth-level equipment. Naturally, I will return the favor."
Loris' lion face was full of calmness as he handed the [God's Stone] to the market guard who was holding a tray beside him. With the Shadow Market as the middleman, Loris didn't have to worry at all.
Then, at the signal of our manager, the market guard handed the [God's Stone] to Lei Xiao.
Lei Xiao looked at the gem in front of him that was emitting a rainbow-colored yet somewhat dim glow, and quietly opened its attribute bar.
[Name: God's Stone (Unknown Sequence)] (dormant)
[Quality: Unknown]
[Power of God: 0%]
[Owner: None]
[Secret method of formation: none]
[Note: The [God's Stone] was accidentally discovered by Loris, the leader of the Rainforest Fortress Alliance, in the cave. There was also an unnamed corpse next to it. That was its former owner.]
"Is it really a [God's Stone]? It's really a bit unexpected."
Lei Xiao looked at the text on the attribute bar and thought so in his heart.
You know, the [God's Stone] is not only the key to uncovering the truth of the Blank Era, but also the only force currently fighting against the "Eclipse". Of course, I will not miss it, even if it is currently in a dormant state that cannot be awakened.
"However, it is not that easy to obtain a set of sixth-level equipment and a sixth-level potion from me with just a dormant God Stone."
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, then looked at Xiao Jie beside him.
Although Xiaojing was arranged by himself to the Shadow Market, Xiaojie, who was able to deploy an absolute defense barrier at any time, was always by her side.
The purpose of Lei Xiao's action was to let Xiao Jie judge when the other party would wake up.
"My Lord, judging from the extremely weak energy fluctuations, this [God's Stone] must have suffered a very serious attack back then."
Xiao Jie understood and nodded to Lei Xiao, saying, "So I cannot be sure when the other party will wake up. It may be a year, or it may be a hundred years."
Of course, Xiaojie, who had a telepathic connection with Lei Xiao, did not finish her words. In fact, it could have been a day, or even a week.
Hearing this, Lei Xiao shrugged his shoulders, looked at Loris who was determined to get it, and said, "Your Excellency, Lord Rainforest Chief, you have heard that this [God's Stone] is still in a dormant state, which means it cannot help me at all. For an object that is temporarily useless, you want a set of extremely precious and very suitable sixth-level equipment. Isn't it a bit too unfair?"
"That's right. Furthermore, the specific level of a dormant God Stone cannot be determined. Based on the transaction records of the Shadow Market over the past five hundred years, only a sixth-level God Stone has the same value as a set of sixth-level equipment."
The manager saw the opportunity and echoed it.
"This……"
Hearing this, Loris, who was originally preparing to control Lei Xiao, was speechless for a moment and completely lost his previous composure.
He was also very clear about these things. Originally, he expected that as long as he could get a sixth-rank magic weapon, the trip would be worthwhile. However, the transactions in the Misty Shadow Market were based on mutual benefit. He saw what Lei Xiao needed and asked for an exorbitant amount of money.
However, judging from the current situation, this human emperor is obviously not someone who can be easily controlled.
But if he only took away a sixth-level magic weapon, he would feel a little unwilling. Just when Loris was hesitating, Xina, who had been impatient for a long time, saw the opportunity and said quickly: "Your Majesty, since someone is not sincere, why not take a look at my things first."
After that, Xina gently pushed forward the ten crystal clusters that were emitting dazzling brilliance and introduced them, "As your majesty can see, these are not ordinary magic crystals, but ten extremely rare high-quality containers, which are suitable for all strong people below the fifth level. They can be used without additional polishing and processing."
"As for the specific function of the container, I don't need to explain it in detail, right?"
Xi Na smiled and added, "For His Majesty, paying the price of a set of sixth-level equipment to obtain these is definitely worth it."
As Xina finished speaking, the administrator also stepped forward. After checking, he nodded to Lei Xiao and said, "Your Majesty, these are indeed ten high-quality containers, and they are suitable for all strong people below the fifth level."
For a manager who has been running the movie market for a long time and is considered a top appraiser, these items can be easily recognized.
"A container that can hold the essence of life?"
Lei Xiao looked at the glittering crystal clusters and nodded thoughtfully.
No wonder I felt that the energy fluctuations were somewhat familiar. It turned out that I had seen them in the ancient mines before. After all, to be able to carry so many ancient dark elves, the storage capacity of the containers must be extremely huge.
"The containers in the ancient mines have all been used and cannot be used again. Moreover, most natural containers need to be polished with special secret methods before they can function properly. Otherwise, they will be like the ancient dark elves such as Jace, and their sanity and many other aspects will be affected."
"It seems that these containers that can be used directly are indeed extremely rare, and they are exactly what I need. After all, Fei'er, Old Silver Fire King and others must pass through the containers to leave their original land."
"However, these can only carry the life essence below the fifth level. Although they cannot be used by Fei'er and the old Silver Fire King, they can be used on Old Roy and the other three Apocalypse Knights in the ruins of the Loren Capital. Their life essence is about to dissipate. If we don't find them now, it may be too late."
Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao took a deep breath slowly.
Even though Old Roy and the others were only at the fifth level and could no longer provide much help to me, I had promised at the time that I would definitely look for them again, and now it was time to fulfill my promise.
"Oh, right, there's another guy who might be able to be used, and that's Wang Xi! This guy's strength is at the peak of the fifth level, so he does meet the requirements!"
"But if I want to see Wang Xi again, I have to find the Holy Stone. This is something I haven't found yet."
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, the market guard handed over the container again.
Lei Xiao looked at the dazzling crystal in front of him and then opened the attribute bar.
[Name: Sacred Crystal]
[Resource level: Level 5 (rare)]
【Specification: 15cm】
[Purity: S-level]
[Note: One of the rare original containers, usually only grows at the border of some misplaced objects deep underground, and can carry the life source below the fifth level. ]
"Is it just a rare resource, not an item that can be upgraded? But being able to obtain ten at once is still a great harvest!"
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao immediately looked at the manager with a questioning look.
I don’t understand the value of containers, so I have to ask the manager to explain it to me.
"Your Majesty, judging from the transaction records of the Shadow Market, the value of these containers is much higher than the sleeping [God Stone] just now. After all, in a sense, the container is a life-saving thing."
The manager introduced without hesitation: "Even so, these containers are not comparable to the set of sixth-level equipment that Chief Huangsha values."
Hearing the manager's words, Xina couldn't help but frowned slightly.
Just as the manager said, she was also very clear about the value of these things, but Lei Xiao probably knew very little about it, so perhaps she could take advantage of them.
Unfortunately, the big mouth of the manager revealed the secret, and she was left with no choice.
Logically speaking, as the manager of the Movie Market, she would not participate in the transaction, let alone make suggestions casually. However, Lei Xiao and the manager obviously had a close relationship, so her plan failed.
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Chief Huangsha, the situation couldn't be more obvious."
Lei Xiao shrugged again and said with a smile: "It seems that the value of the items you provided is relatively limited. If you can come up with a higher quality container, it would be great."
"Your Majesty, the container is extremely rare. This is all I have. If there were any more, I would have taken them out long ago."
Xina lowered her beautiful eyes, sighed helplessly and said, "Can't His Majesty the Human Race reconsider it?"
After that, Xi Na's eyes moved, and she smiled charmingly at Lei Xiao and said, "Perhaps I can bring some other experiences to Your Majesty."
"Tsk, His Majesty the Human Race won't fall for that."
Loris saw the right opportunity and quickly said, "Your Majesty, in addition to the [God's Stone], this leader can also provide some other things!" (End of this chapter)
