Chapter 37 - 37: Trade? Believe it or not, I’ll explode you!
“Could we take a look at the skill books?”
Zheng Cheng was the first to speak up.
Among them, he was the team leader, already acknowledged by everyone. Even Yao Zhixue approved when he spoke at this moment.
Doug the goblin chuckled, tapped his space ring, a flash of light appeared, and soon three different items appeared on the ground.
“Dear human professionists, these three items are the most precious goods I have on this trip.” “To thank you for saving my life, I can sell these three items to you at cost!”
“The first item!”
Doug Gold Coin handed over a palm-sized item that looked like a stone tablet. “Subterranean Assassin profession transition certificate!”
“This is a transition certificate I bought from the Subterranean Sand Worm tribe. Lower-class assassins only need to drip their own fresh blood on this certificate to start their Subterranean Assassin transition task!”
“After completing the task, you can transition into the Subterranean Assassin profession!”
“Profession star level: Six stars!”
“After a successful transition, you can acquire profession skills like subterranean control and manipulation of sandy terrain.”
“For lower-level assassins, it is the most valuable item!”
Listening to Doug Gold Coin saying this, the eyes of Chen Xiao and the others all lit up.
“Damn! A six-star profession!” “An assassin type? What a pity…”
“I wonder if Cai Shen can use it?”
“I’m a Druid, why the hell would I want to transition to an assassin…”
Doug Gold Coin said in an enticing tone, “So, esteemed customers, this Subterranean Assassin transition certificate only needs… ten thousand gold coins!”
“Shit! It’s that expensive?”
“I’ve always heard that goblin merchants are the best businessmen among the different races, it seems to be true…
“Ten thousand gold coins would sell me and still not make that much money…”
Everyone exclaimed in shock, and Zheng Cheng’s eyebrows furrowed as his eyes began to size up Doug Gold Coin.
If we kill him now, wouldn’t the three items he brought out all be ours?
And that space ring.
There are usage requirements?
Never mind, take it to the Professionist Guild or the Auction House to sell, there are always alchemists and artifact refiners who can unlock this thing…
Feeling a cold breath tugging at his neck, Doug Gold Coin’s face tightened immediately.
In a hurry, he took back the assassin transition certificate and laughed with a flattering face, “Dear saviors, Doug was just joking with you.”
“How could I sell you items you don’t need… Behold… these two items are prepared for you!”
“The first one, a sub-dragon beast egg!”
Doug Gold Coin excitedly introduced while tapping a beast egg about the same height as him, “This is a treasure I got from the Lizard-man tribe in the Pale Canyon!”
“It’s a beast egg of the Lizard-man tribe’s mount, a Flame Scaly beast, it has a hint of dragon bloodline, naturally covered with scales, and can master several lower-to -middle – grade magic! ”
“Once this Flame Scaly is hatched, whether it is for Beast Tamers, Summoners, or Knights and Hunters, it is a very useful companion!”
Doug Gold Coin said while emphasizing the term ‘Knight’.
Among them, Chen Xiao’s profession was indeed a knight!
Chen Xiao’s eyes lit up first, then he cautiously asked, “How much?”
“One thousand gold coins!” “That cheap?”
Everyone was stumped.
This is a sub-dragon beast egg.
Once it’s hatched, you have a sub-dragon magic pet companion.
Its overall strength should exceed that of a six-star Subterranean Assassin!
Zheng Cheng sneered, “Of course it’s cheap, this beast egg can’t be hatched.”
“Huh?”
Everyone hurriedly looked at the beast egg.
[Name: Magic Beast Egg] [Species: Flame Scaly]
[Attribute: Fire] [Current Status: Incubation period, Weak]
[Description: ????? ]
A series of question marks appeared in the item description, clearly caused by Doug’s deception.
Chen Xiao was furious, grabbed the youngster by the neck and lifted him up.
“You filthy rat dare to trick me, believe it or not, I can kill you now and take all your things…”
“Woah, Woah, Woah…
Doug shouted hastily as he flailed around his scrawny body in the air.
“One thousand gold coins! A whole thousand gold coins!” “You can totally gamble on it after buying it back!”
“If it really hatches, you could hatch a flaming serpent slizard!”
“A normal fire slizard beast egg can usually sell for at least seven or eight thousand gold coins…”
“Dammit!”
Chen Xiao slapped Doug until he collapsed, “What the hell is the point of buying this? To scramble an egg?”
“Why are you cursing at me, Brother Xiao?” Cai Shen leaned over with his hefty goblin head.
“I mean…”
Zheng Cheng frowned. Seeing there were less than a minute left, he asked directly: “What’s the final item?”
“A skill book!”
Doug quickly pulled out a skill scroll that resembles a parchment scroll and said, “This skill is also perfect for you guys!”
“Huh?”
Everyone looked simultaneously, and they were stunned again.
All their gazes turned to Chen Xiao subconsciously.
What the heck was going on today? Of the three items presented, two of them were related to Chen Xiao.
[Skill Book: Taunt]
[Effect: Consumes mental energy and forces the target to attack you.]
[Usage Restrictions: Only knights, shield warriors, monks, ferocious beast druids, and other professions can use.]
“Oh man! Taunt! This is a staple skill for knights!”
Cai Shen exclaimed, “Brother Xiao didn’t get the Taunt skill when he awakened. I thought he’d have no chance in the future, but look at this…”
Zhang Ping’an added, “That’s right. With Taunt, Brother Xiao could reliably aggro monsters, keeping us safer.” Zheng Cheng asked bluntly, “How much?”
“Brother Cheng! ”
Zheng Cheng replied, “We are brothers, why all this fuss?”
“You didn’t look down on me for my low professional star level, and even took me to dungeons. If there’s a skill you can use, I’ll certainly help you buy!”
Doug cunningly said, “Two thousand gold coins!”
“You gotta be kidding me!”
Chen Xiao cursed instantly, “At our auction, a Taunt book goes for a maximum of two hundred gold coins. You’re selling it for base price?”
Doug once again retracted his head and mourningly said, “Well… How about two hundred gold coins?”
“You…”
Doug covered his head and fled shrieking, “I’ve traveled such a long way and even been caught by fire mice. I need to make some profit.”
“I’m a merchant after all. I pay taxes too, wuwuwu…”
Zheng Cheng tried to hold Chen Xiao back, but he was still angrily retorting, “Brother Cheng, where are we supposed to get all these gold coins? This kid’s definitely trying to rip us off…’ “I can lend you some.”
Yao Zhixue suddenly suggested.
Everyone’s eyes brightened.
Right, they might be penniless, but Yao Zhixue wasn’t.
As a nine-star professionist and a member of the Night Watch, she definitely had money.
Zheng Cheng asked doubtfully, “Where’d you get all that money?”
Yao Zhixue blinked and said, “After all, I am a nine-star professional. The City Lord’s Mansion of Chang’an City awarded me ten thousand gold coins plus the stipend from the Night Watch…”
“Damn!”
Everyone else subconsciously muttered the same invective, their jealousy palpable.
Even Zheng Cheng was a little tempted.
No mention of the ten thousand gold coins awarded by the City Lord’s Mansion, let alone the welfare from the Night Watch.
Damn it.
Ordinary people just can’t compete, and civil servants have it the best.
“Your money… never mind.”
Zheng Cheng said, “You’re a nine-star professional. You have a lot of expenses.”
“Besides, it’s me buying things for my brother, not you…” He said, pulling an item from his inventory to show it to Doug.
“What’s this item worth?”
Doug looked browned out look, but his eyes lit up suddenly and he instinctively said:
“A permanent attribute increase? A bloodline item?”
“Wait…. there’s no level limit?!”
