Forming a Grudge

Once again, I arrived at the street where players set up stalls. However, after the next world, I should be leaving this town.

I hung the "Boutique Small Shop" sign in front of the stall and took out the Green Quality equipment from my backpack. For those with good effects, I priced them at 2500, and for the average ones, 2000. These were basically below market price.

Chen Yi didn't plan to spend too much time at the stall. He wanted to sell them as quickly as possible.

The most valuable item, the [Staff of Healing], was put up for auction. The duration was 3 hours, with a starting bid of 30,000 Copper Coins, and his expected price was 90,000.

This was already the price for Pale Gold Quality equipment, but Chen Yi believed that the people from the big guilds wouldn't let this staff go.

If the Strong Heart effect was used well, it could turn the tide of a battle.

As for the Concentric skill that followed, it connected the health bars of two teammates, sharing damage, which provided good protection for the backline.

It was a skill that wasn't very useful to Chen Yi.

Blue Quality was already quite eye-catching on the street, and now, amidst the white and green, equipment emitting a purple glow appeared. Even players who just passed by would turn their heads to take a look.

Without waiting long, Chen Yi's stall was surrounded by people.

"It's actually Purple Quality equipment!"

"I thought the highest quality equipment for players below level 20 wouldn't exceed Blue Quality. I didn't expect there to be Deep Purple."

"You guys didn't focus on the important part. This equipment can be upgraded."

"Even without the Strong Heart effect, this staff is top-tier among Purple equipment. At level 1, it already has a 10% increase in healing effect."

Many players hurriedly notified the predecessors in their guilds that good items had appeared in the low-level town.

These high-level players initially didn't believe it. After seeing the screenshots, they suspected they were photoshopped. Fortunately, they remembered that this was the Game World's chat system, and pictures couldn't be faked. They immediately became excited.

"I must stabilize the boss, I'll be there immediately! How do I get to the low-level town again..."

The players who received the orders all tried to get close to Chen Yi. Chen Yi, however, put on his headphones and ignored everyone.

He took out "Applicability of Elemental Shield" and began to study it on the spot.

Low-level players were not Chen Yi's target audience. Talking to them would be pointless.

Before long, the first level 30 player arrived at the stall. Clad in Plate Armor, he looked like a main tank for the front line.

Bian Si was overjoyed after confirming the equipment's effects. With this staff, the guild's trash Healer shouldn't be unable to heal his health bar anymore.

As for the equipment needing to be upgraded, that was a minor issue. The guild never lacked Newcomer players.

There were plenty of players willing to volunteer if they were compensated with some equipment or Copper Coins for carrying the Staff of Healing.

Before the people from other guilds arrived, Bian Si directly bought out all the other equipment on the stall, showing goodwill to Chen Yi.

Although he couldn't use it, he could throw it into the guild warehouse to cultivate newcomers, so it wasn't a loss.

"Little brother, can we talk?"

Bian Si looked rough and burly, but his voice sounded somewhat 'young'.

Chen Yi closed the book. "How do you want to talk?"

Seeing that Chen Yi wasn't curious about his voice, Bian Si's smile became more sincere.

"Little brother, you have great skill. To obtain purple-quality equipment at less than level 20."

Noticing that Chen Yi had no intention of continuing the conversation, Bian Si quickly got to the point. He wasn't the only one who wanted the staff.

"How about a price of 92,000?"

Before Chen Yi could speak, a cold voice interjected, "10,000 Copper Coins, plus an opportunity to join the Dynasty Guild."

Upon seeing this person, Bian Si opened his mouth but ultimately chose not to continue bidding.

Ding Li, an Assassin from the Dynasty Guild. This guy was vengeful and loved nothing more than assassinating players from other guilds, watching them despair without Resurrection Coins.

Ding Li had a notorious reputation in the main city, but it was a bad reputation.

It wasn't that players hadn't tried to cause trouble for Ding Li; none had succeeded under the Dynasty Guild's protection.

Ding Li had actually come with the mentality of getting a bargain. Whether he could join the Dynasty Guild was not something he decided with a single word, and this staff could be resold for a large sum of Copper Coins.

For the vast majority of new Players, their dream was to join a large guild and complete quests under the guild's guidance, earning Copper Coins.

However, these so-called majority of Players did not include Chen Yi.

Chen Yi looked at Bian Si. "Does your offer still stand?"

Bian Si was stunned, surprised that Chen Yi would refuse Ding Li.

Ding Li didn't say anything further. He noted Chen Yi's appearance with killing intent and left directly.

The subsequent Players who arrived did not want to provoke the madman Ding Li and did not make any offers.

However, Bian Si still completed the trade with Chen Yi with a wry smile.

After the trade, Bian Si advised, "That guy just now is a lunatic. Little brother, you must be careful when you enter the game in the future."

Chen Yi nodded, indicating he understood. "Thank you."

"Sigh, I don't know if coming here was a gain or a loss. I'll just have to fend for myself."

Chen Yi didn't take Ding Li's threat to heart. In areas below level 20, he could kill as many of their guild members as they sent.

The people from the Mage Association had taught Chen Yi that compromise yielded nothing.

The only thing he could do was kill! Kill until they were too scared to face him!

He packed up his stall and headed straight for the Arena. Chen Yi would do his best to improve himself, and when they met again, he'd give Ding Li a surprise.

[Ding! Please select the battlefield to simulate.]

"Simulate the environment when I was learning the Ignite skill."

This was a sudden idea from Chen Yi. The Game World didn't forbid changing the environment, right?

[Requesting judgment...]

[Permission granted. Simulation environment fee: 3000 Copper Coins/hour.]

Chen Yi was quite satisfied with the improvement of his permissions. He had to admit, with higher permissions, there was more room for maneuver in the Game World.

The cheat he brought from his transmigration showed that deduction was available. However, Chen Yi stopped after trying it once. His current Soul Energy was far from what he needed. To improve himself, he still needed to accumulate more.

Recalling his thoughts, Chen Yi began observing the surrounding flames.

With the improvement of his Fire elemental resistance and the Fire Affinity he received as a reward earlier, Chen Yi now had a deeper understanding of the surrounding flames.

Scorching, wild... yet it seemed to contain hope.

While sensing, Chen Yi was also trying to replicate this feeling within his own flames.

Time slowly passed with the efforts of one person and one Pokémon.

Another week went by, and this kind of training had to stop due to insufficient Copper Coins.

Chen Yi spent all his remaining Copper Coins on potions and Xiao Liu's Roast Meat.

The most expensive item was Remi's Aid, which cost a full 8000 Copper Coins – enough to buy a piece of trash Blue Quality equipment.

[Remi's Aid]

Quality: Blue

Upon consumption, instantly restores 30% of one's HP and Mana. The second use within 24 hours is invalid.

Evaluation: A strange supply from the Dungeon World. Trust Remi for eternal life!

If not for the long cooldown period, this item would be far beyond Blue Quality.
