[Survival of the Giant]-A War of Attrition

The Book-selling Old Man was briefly at a loss for words.

However, the old man still said, "The water you're offering takes no effort at all, but you want me to give you an Extraordinary Item of Transcendent Level A. Isn't that asking too much?"

Wang Yu said, "You're the one asking too much."

"We're not related in any way, yet you came here and expect me to provide water for all the players."

The old man sighed. "I'm only thinking of what's best for all the players."

"If they don't have water, they could all die. This batch of players will be wiped out."

Wang Yu said, "So?"

The old man said, "You could easily help everyone survive."

"So you should help them."

Wang Yu asked, "Why should I help the other players?"

The old man sighed. "Ah, the Survival Game is making people more and more selfish."

Wang Yu said, "No. That's just human nature. People would be the same even without this Survival Game."

"I've said all this because I want you to understand that I could provide water to every player."

"I deserve to get something in return. That's not unreasonable, is it?"

"Think about what you can offer me."

The old man said, "You look handsome and refined, but I never expected you to be so profit-driven."

"I thought you'd be the kind of young hero who puts the greater good first and takes it upon himself to save all living beings..."

Wang Yu said, "All right. If that's all, go on your way."

Despite all his talk, the old man hadn't said what he could offer in return. Wang Yu was getting impatient and didn't want to waste any more time.

Save all living beings?

Uh...

Wang Yu had never thought anyone needed saving.
