Chapter 102

Because of the rain, Xu Jiayi did not get out of the car.

Qin Lang strode over, skillfully lifted Shen Xing into the car, and then sped off.

The car drove along the foggy streets, its tires leaving two streaks in the water.

On the way, Qin Lang couldn't help but ask the other two what the 'good stuff' they had prepared was.

But none of them would say.

Qin Lang also suppressed his curiosity, deciding to wait until they reached their destination to find out.

Soon, they arrived at the Times Building in the center of Jiangcheng, which is also the Player Association.

They rented a lounge on the fifth floor, and the three of them sat facing each other on the sofa.

"Alright, put everything out there."

Qin Lang rubbed his hands together, eagerly saying, "Let me see what good stuff you have in your hands."

Xu Jiayi thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go first."

As she spoke, she picked up a Chu Yin Future themed bag and rummaged around inside for a while.

Then he took out two stones, each about the size of a baby's fist, with a star pattern on them.

Chapter 82: Exchanging Supplies, Buy, Buy, Buy!

"What is this thing?" Qin Lang asked curiously.

"Troop Lair Evolution Stone," Xu Jiayi explained, "Allows a troop nest to be upgraded by one star level without any cost, but it can only be used on Elite nests at most."

Shen Xing and Qin Lang exchanged glances, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.

This is really good stuff.

After all, upgrading a unit's nest is not like increasing a unit's potential; each level requires a lot of materials.

Although this evolution stone can only increase a star, it can save them a lot of resources and speed up their progress.

Shen Xing pondered that when he got back, he would first use the materials to upgrade the Orc Barracks to Common 3-Star.

Then use this enhancement stone to upgrade to Elite Rank.

The orcs summoned later were all Elite One Star, greatly increasing their combat power!

Qin Lang nodded in approval, "Not bad, indeed a good item, but what I have is just as good."

"Guess what it is?"

"Stop being so mysterious, just take it out already." Xu Jiayi rolled her eyes at him.

Qin Lang laughed heartily, then placed the black shoulder bag on the table and took out two sparkling gems from it.

The gem on the left is dark red, and it looks as if blood is flowing inside.

The stone on the right is silvery-white, and a faint hollow sound can be heard coming from inside.

"What is this thing?" Xu Jiayi asked.

"Strength Gem and Power Shot Gem," Qin Lang explained proudly. "When inlaid in a unit's lair, they increase the unit's strength by 10% and ranged attack power by 10%."

"How about that? Pretty impressive, huh?"

Shen Xing and Xu Jiayi exchanged a glance.

Clearly, these two gems were carefully selected by Qin Lang, specifically for the orc and archer units.

It must be said that this thing really helped them a lot.

Luckily, Xu Jiayi has a [Lair Evolution Stone]. After returning, I can upgrade to Elite Rank and then socket the gem into it.

At that time, the combat power of their main forces will be significantly enhanced.

"These two gems are indeed quite nice."

Shen Xing nodded. "Since you've all brought out such valuable items, my treasure certainly can't be anything less than exceptional."

As he spoke, he pulled a black plastic bag from under the table and then untied the opening.

The two Silver Sacred Fruit flashed with a silver light, then gradually calmed down.

A sweet, fruity aroma filled the entire conference room.

"It smells so good!" Qin Lang sniffed the air and exclaimed excitedly, "This fruit looks delicious!"

Xu Jiayi asked curiously what the fruit was for.

Shen Xing explained to them the specific effects and bonuses of the [Silver Sacred Fruit].

Upon hearing that it could increase the four main attributes by 20 points, both of them widened their eyes instantly, their faces flashing with shock!

"Holy crap! It can boost all four stats this much?" Qin Lang's eyes widened. "My stats aren't even over 20 yet, isn't this a direct doubling of my stats?"

Xu Jiayi also somewhat shocked.

Shen Xing's two Silver Sacred Fruits were no less valuable than the treasures they brought, and perhaps even more so.

Suppressing their excitement, the two gathered their belongings from the table and exchanged a knowing smile.

Clearly, after the Mist Void Realm ended, their strength had improved considerably, and they had also gained many opportunities in the game.

As comrades who have worked together for many years, everyone kept what they could use and exchanged supplies.

At this moment, Shen Xing spoke again, "Actually, I have something else here."

"There's something else... what is it?"

Both of them asked with some curiosity.

Shen Xing reached into his pocket and took out a bloodstained medal, which was engraved with the marks of a shield and a longsword.

"This is... Knight's Proof?" Xu Jiayi recognized the item on the table and exclaimed in surprise, "An item that allows players to change their class to a Sacrifice Knight."

Shen Xing nodded. "That's right, I plan to give this to Qin Lang."

Since this item can only be used by players, but due to his physical condition, he certainly wouldn't choose the Knight class.

Furthermore, Shen Xing checked the trading channel beforehand and didn't see any relevant item consignment information, so he couldn't exchange items with other players even if he wanted to.

After all, no one would put such a precious job-changing item up for sale.

Shen Xing also believed in keeping the benefits within the family, so he had Qin Lang change jobs.

They will continue to team up in real life, and having a knight by their side for protection greatly increases their safety.

"Huh? For me?"

Qin Lang pointed to himself, somewhat bewildered.

Although he had no prior knowledge of this job-change item, the fact that it allowed players to acquire a formal job was enough to demonstrate its rarity.

"Isn't this... a bit too expensive?" Qin Lang swallowed hard.

Shen Xing calmly said, "Take it. You should change your class first and improve your strength. We'll find other classes to change to later."

Qin Lang was still somewhat hesitant to accept the offer.

Xu Jiayi was standing nearby, couldn't stand it anymore and snorted, "When did you become so indecisive? If you don't want it, give it to me, I'll change jobs!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Lang immediately grabbed the mark on the table and laughed, "Then I'll change jobs. A knight, a class that Charge, isn't suitable for you."

He carefully put the mark into his backpack, then said with emotion, "Shen Xing is so kind; he even thought of his brother when he got such a good thing."

"I won't say much, just ask if you need anything. I can give you anything except my butt!"

Shen Xing's lips twitched. "I suddenly regret giving it to you."

"Hahaha!" Qin Lang laughed loudly.

With this, their exchange of treasures officially came to an end.

Next, we'll move on to the next segment.

"Let's go to the second-floor trading area, this time I'm going to buy, buy, buy!" Qin Lang said impatiently.

The other two nodded in agreement.

After all, this was one of the purposes of their trip; otherwise, Shen Xing wouldn't have arranged to meet at the Player Association.

He's now a tycoon with over three million yuan in assets, enough to buy a lot of good things and boost his wealth.

Qin Lang pushed Shen Xing, and the three of them left the lounge together.

"Drop!"

The elevator returned to the second floor, revealing a bustling trading hall.

They strolled from stall to stall with practiced ease, examining the goods in the hands of the players.

After choosing for more than half an hour, the three of them each had a target in mind.

Shen Xing bought a [Flame Gem) ] from a female lord.

Then I bought the [Windmill Blueprint] and the [Mysterious Building - Food Processing Plant] from another middle-aged lord.

These three items cost him a whopping 1.8 million!

Lord Shen was heartbroken, as his assets had shrunk by nearly half.

But the three things he bought were definitely worth it.

The former [Flame Gem] can be socketed into the Lesser Demon Lair, increasing fire damage by 10% and reducing skill cooldown by 10%.

Especially with the later cooldown reduction, combined with the new hero Leina's [Flame Aura] and [Blazing Flame Domain], it almost turns the Hellfire Fireball skill into having no cooldown.

The [windmill] that follows is even more important.

Some food processing can be done, such as grinding wheat and rice into flour and then making bread or similar products.

In particular, Shen Xing still had thousands of kilograms of [Moonlight Wheat], which was said to have special effects when used to make food, so he wanted to give it a try.

As for the final [food processing plant], it goes without saying that it's a place used to produce food.

Shen Xing put these three items, along with the two treasures he had previously obtained in the exchange, into a black handbag.

He muttered to himself, "That handbag cost him 220 yuan, what a rip-off!"

Meanwhile, Qin Lang and Xu Jiayi also completed their purchases.

However, they didn't buy them with money; they bartered with other goods.

Use items in the game that you don't need to exchange for other treasures or blueprints that can improve your strength.

Everyone wore satisfied smiles, clearly indicating a good haul.

"Alright, let's head back." Qin Lang patted his shoulder bag. "I can really work on improving myself when we get back. This time I'm going to surpass Jiayi and never be at the bottom again!"

Xu Jiayi glanced at him dismissively, as if she didn't consider him a rival at all.

Just as the three were about to leave the trading hall, they suddenly noticed a large crowd gathered in a corner, with occasional bursts of noise coming from there.

Watching a spectacle is human nature.
