Chapter 206 - 206: Silver Moon Commercial Group
The [Cobra – 2X] Rocket Launcher is a level 10 blue weapon with decent damage. Not only does it automatically replenish ammunition, but it also has a premium attribute of +1 ammo capacity. Song Jian calculated that he should be able to use this weapon until at least level 20.
But now after becoming a Sword Controller, he could only use sword-type weapons. The power of all other weapon types would decrease by 80%, making the Rocket Launcher instantly become useless.
“Thank god I already gave away that dagger, otherwise, the feeling of heartache would be doubled!” Song Jian couldn’t help but think. Only now did he understand the significance of the assessment task given to him by Duan Jian: to use a sword-type weapon and kill a level 15 elite BOSS by himself.
“Looks like from now on I can only rely on my good old sword!” Song Jian muttered to himself.
Initially, he gave the “Tusk Fang Stinger” to Lin Sheng not only to complete the task but also because the “Tusk Fang Stinger” was only a level 5 weapon with slightly insufficient damage. If it weren’t for its “Poison Nova” skill, Song Jian would have probably sold it off long ago.
But the Rocket Launcher was different, it was a level 10 item;
“Forget it, selling it can still earn me a lot,” Song Jian consoled himself.
System: You’ve completed the main storyline task. You may choose to leave the game now, or you may choose to leave in three hours. After three hours, you will be forcefully logged out of the game.
Upon completing the main storyline task, Song Jian let out a sigh of relief. Fle’d spent over twenty days in-game on this excursion. Living cautiously each day in this monster-filled city was mentally exhausting, and he now keenly needed to return to the real world and relax.
First, he placed the two jewels into the golden bag slot, then he headed towards his manor with the Black Dragon cub in tow.
Upon entering the manor, the Black Dragon cub let out an angry roar towards the Bloody Shadow Poison Tree Alex. If Song Jian hadn’t controlled it, he feared that another fight would break out between the cub and Alex;
It seemed that the Black Dragon cub still retained its memories of the previous battle and was filled with hatred towards the Bloody Shadow Poison Tree.
The Bloody Shadow Poison Tree, which had absorbed the blood of the Black Dragon, now had vivid red markings emerging on its trunk surface, stretching out to all its branches like blood vessels.
“Master… evolution…. sleep… Tree Shepherd…” Alex seemed drowsy at the moment, his speech sluggish and choppy before it went completely silent.
“Alright, Lil’ Black, we’re all friends here, don’t pick on Alex anymore!” Song Jian said, patting the Black Dragon cub’s head.
Roar-
The Black Dragon cub made an unwilling noise but obediently followed Song Jian.
Even though he had a Pet Space, Song Jian still didn’t want to place the Black Dragon cub inside it. Just because it had lost its bloodline inheritance didn’t mean it would become increasingly stupid. On the contrary, with level ups, the Black Dragon cub would acquire wisdom and cunning to rival that of humans.
Back on the third floor of the castle, Song Jian opened his radio.
Since he couldn’t use the Rocket Launcher, it was natural to sell it as soon as possible. Instead of selling it to other players, it would be more profitable to sell it to NPCs.
Crackle… Crackle…
After a burst of static, Song Jian heard a recruitment message that was being looped and broadcasted;
“This is the Silver Moon Merchant Guild, we are looking for ten professionals, level 10 or above. Outstanding and rare professionals will be given priority. Good treatment assured, please send your CV to the mailbox address ****”
The message continued to loop for ten minutes before it ended.
Just when it ended, a slew of raucous cursing immediately filled the radio.
“Fuck, the Silver Moon Merchant Guild sure is full of itself, even occupying the radio channel to loop their advertisement, freaking hell…”
“How good it must be to have money, 1 wish I had enough money to dominate a frequency like the Silver Moon Merchant Guild…”
“What exactly is the treatment? Why don’t they declare it directly on the frequency…”
“Money can make people capricious, those without just have to accept their fate. Young people should not complain about their situation, strive more while you’re young. The next successful person might be you.”
“Yeah, right, keep going, if you don’t try your best, how would you know… What is despair!”
“Can you please not monopolize the public channel with such harmful advice, fuck you…”
After listening for a while, Song Jian realized this radio was pretty effective. It automatically censored swear words.
“Ahem, 1 have a weapon for sale, [Cobra-2X] Rocket Launcher, blue-quality….” Song Jian interrupted. He described the properties of the Rocket Launcher: “Act fast, those interested can send me a private message for the price. I won’t reply to messages without a price or those offering too low!”
After Song Jian finished describing the properties of the Rocket Launcher, the radio eerily became silent except for a faint hum of electricity. There were no other sounds.
Just when Song Jian thought something was wrong with the radio, a timid voice piped up.
“Boss, are you really selling this weapon? You’re not joking with us right?”
That voice caused an uproar in the radio, sounding like a pot boiling over, with hushed voices jumping in one after another;
“A god’s favored one! This boss must be a god’s favored one, right? Only a god’s favored one would have such financial clout to sell such a weapon!”
“My god, this level 10 weapon is going to be against the heavens. If 1 had it, 1 could use it until level 15…”
“I can use it till level 20…”
“I could use it till level 30…”
“I could use it for my fucking lifetime…”
“5,000 Doomsday Coins, we from the Silver Moon Merchant Guild will purchase it. We’re also curious if this God’s chosen one would be interested in joining our Silver Moon Merchant Guild. The hiring price is negotiable and definitely the highest in the industry. We’re even willing to lower the usual requirements. If you’re not already a professional, we can offer you three scarce profession scroll for free…”
Song jian was taken aback. A simple level 10 blue-quality weapon could be sold for 5,000 doomsday coins? When he had originally sold two set armor pieces, he only got 4,000 Doomsday coins…
After waiting for a bit, no one offered a higher price. After the Silver Moon Merchant Guild made their bid, the radio fell silent, as if everyone was intimidated by the Silver Moon Merchant Guild, and they dare not raise the price.
“Could it be, the Silver Moon Merchant Guild’s influence is really that big?” Song Jian frowned. He needed to be careful when selling items over the radio in the future.
“Alright then, Silver Moon Merchant Guild, this weapon is sold to you. As for your hiring offer, let’s forget about it. Besides, I’m already a professional and currently have no intentions of joining any organization!” Song Jian politely refused.
“Alright, you can mail the weapon to ***** Looking forward to our next deal!”
