Chapter 239: Last Deal and Return

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Old Ji, we’ve truly suffered because of the Twin Dragon Mount fort this time.”

In the No. 1 Booth of the trading hall in the Three Thousand Restaurant, Fatty Zhu was sitting on Ji Ye’s opposite side. The armor and clothes on his body that weighed more than 175 kilograms were unclean, and he had lost a lot of his hair. He appeared rather frustrated.

“That’s not my fault. You had yourself to blame for coming at the last moment!”

Ji Ye shook his head.

He wasn’t really bothered by what Fatty Zhu said.

Fatty Zhu was truly unlucky, because when the five core targets on Yuan’s side died, the Battlefield of Providence stopped accepting more battle participants.

But Fatty Zhu’s settlement had arrived the moment before it was closed!

“It’s a good thing that we were on the victors’ side and didn’t lose any power of providence, but we did lose a tremendous number of Civilization Coins!”

Fatty Zhu’s head drooped, and tears seemed to be flowing out on his chubby face.

Because they happened upon certain unexpected problems during the Ten-Species Competition, they came to the City of Humans rather late.

However, there were benefits in being late.

On the forum of the Land of Inheritance, the battle participants who had been eliminated introduced the basic situation about the Battlefield of Providence.

After learning that it was a “real battlefield”, Fatty Zhu grinned so hard that his eyes were narrowed into a line.

After all, Noxus, which his settlement belonged to, was itself an empire of iron and blood. The heroes in his settlement were as good at commanding as those from the Twin Dragon Mount fort.

Little did they anticipate that they would hear the notification about the closure of the Battlefield of Providence only several minutes after they entered the Battlefield of Providence with the war resources that they spent abundant Civilization Coins on. Naturally, they suffered a heavy loss.

After all, it required a corresponding amount of Civilization Coins in order to bring resources into the Battlefield of Providence.

It would’ve been fine if this were the last Battlefield of Providence, when the Civilization Coins couldn’t be used as a currency yet.

But the Civilization Coins could be used to buy items this time, and Fatty Zhu didn’t have any Civilization Coins left!

Therefore, his only choice was to make a deal with Ji Ye.

His “complaint” and “grumble” was only a trick to appeal to Ji Ye’s sympathy.

Having passed the initial trial, Fatty Zhu certainly knew that the only person responsible for the decisions he made was himself!

“Okay, cut the crap and take out whatever you’ve got.

“Just to be clear, I don’t need the Ruby Crystal anymore, but I’m still interested in the Rejuvenation Bead!”

Ji Ye had little sympathy for Fatty Zhu and his misfortunes, but he was somewhat interested in what the man had to sell.

It was because the settlement that Fatty Zhu belonged to was a game-related settlement, and in such settlements, there were bound to be items with unusual features.

Speaking of which, the Twin Dragon Mount fort had also obtained a Book of Civilization in the genre of “Game” from the Battlefield of Providence this time.

However, the exact genre of the Book of Civilization was “Wuxia/Game”, which meant that it could probably add the settings of a wuxia game.

“These are my best treasures!”

Reluctantly, Fatty Zhu took out two items.

One of the two items was a glass bottle containing fluid in the color of gray metal, and the other was a box of round biscuits.

[Elixir of Iron]

[Level: Extraordinary Rank-5]

[Rarity: Common]

[Description: After taking this, your skin will become as hard as iron, and you will be much more resistant to negative effects for a certain amount of time. (The enhancement depends on the size of the user).]

“Elixir of Iron?”

Ji Ye raised his eyes.

That was rather similar to the South King’s metalization.

The extraordinary drug that the army of Fatty Zhu’s settlement had probably been using would be very effective on a battlefield.

However, Ji Ye wasn’t really interested in the item that could only increase one’s defense while one was beaten.

So, laying the item down, Ji Ye turned his head to the item that appeared as biscuits.

[Poro-Snax]

[Level: Extraordinary Rank-5]

[Rarity: Excellent]

[Description: This savory blend of free-range, grass-fed Avarosan game hens and organic, non-ZMO Freljordian herbs contains the essential nutrients necessary to accelerate the growth of most creatures. (Note: All proceeds will be donated towards fighting Noxian animal cruelty.)]

“It can accelerate the growth of creatures?”

Ji Ye’s heart stirred.

Well, make no mistake.

As an adult, he was already fully grown. He was only interested in this item because the Twin Dragon Mount fort had the Forest Monster Wine, which could accelerate the growth of the intelligence of creatures. If he also had this Poro-Snax, it would be much easier to raise creatures such as Steelback Blue Wolves and Golden Condors for battle!

Also, what slightly interested Ji Ye was that, if he remembered correctly, Fatty Zhu’s settlement was set in “Noxus” in the game that he played.

Judging from the description, this game probably had an interesting backstory!

“Do you have recipes or blueprints?” Ji Ye asked Fatty Zhu.

“No, this is the only box. It’s transformed from a Stone of Civilization who played ten thousand ARAM games in his boredom!”

Fatty Zhu spoke with obvious mockery on his face.

That was truly a great waste.

An Extraordinary Rank-5 Stone of Civilization could’ve been transformed into anything other than a box of biscuits that weren’t for the consumption of human beings!

“This isn’t of much value if it’s the only box.”

Ji Ye looked at Fatty Zhu and shook his head again.

As a matter of fact, Ji Ye was interested in purchasing the Poro-Snax.

After all, with his Fusion talent, he would be able to analyze its elements and copy it after he bought it.

“Fatty, take out the really good stuff. The City of Humans will be closed in a moment!”

Of course, Ji Ye didn’t show any of his interest but simply looked at Fatty Zhu, who apparently hadn’t fully confessed.

“This is worth ten thousand Civilization Coins!”

Fatty Zhu slightly hesitated and then gritted his teeth hard.

He then took out a “sculpture”, which was the size of half a human head and looked like a blue crystal with an eye embedded into it, and put it on the table.

[Eye of the Watchers]

[Level: Special]

[Rarity: Excellent (Rare)]

[Description: This is an item that can create an invisible ward that can monitor the environment for a certain amount of time.]

“Eye of the Watchers?”

Ji Ye picked up the Eye of the Watchers that was more or less like a security camera.

He knew that Fatty Zhu had truly offered a lot this time

After all, such an invisible surveillance device with a “Special” attribute was very valuable for any settlement.

Although the device’s functions more or less overlapped with those of the Mirage Cloud Mirror and the monocular, it could be set up in the fort to keep an eye on the critical locations.

Also, after his Fusion talent advanced into “Transcendent”, he might consider fusing it into a more advanced item.

More importantly, what Fatty Zhu wanted in return was Civilization Coins, not another item.

Although Ji Ye had spent his own Civilization Coins on SkyNet, the Twin Dragon Mount fort had earned enough Civilization Coins from items they sold out to buy this surveillance device that contained Transcendent power.

Of course, as it had always been, bargaining was a necessary step.

After all, he and Fatty Zhu had always believed that “friendship is friendship and business is business”!

“Eight thousand!”

“Nine thousand!”

“Eight thousand and five hundred, or ten thousand for all the three items you offered!”

“Deal!”

...

While Ji Ye negotiated with Fatty Zhu, the other members of the Twin Dragon Mount were also having transactions in their respective booths.

For example, Qin Yueyu exchanged for an “Infinite Quiver”, which could incessantly manufacture arrows that contained Extraordinary power as long as raw materials were filled in.

Wu Qiao acquired a “Poisonous Dagger” that could continuously attack the target once she locked onto him with her mental power.

Lu Junyi, on the other hand, got an “Energy Vehicle” made by a tech civilization, which could transform into a Qilin, through a deal.

Elder Jiao, who was also staying in the City of Humans, exchanged one of his redundant Transcendent items for a 3D camera that could transform the target into a 3D model.

Besides, Ji Ye also made deals with Li Lei’s settlement, whose pirate ship was blown up on the battlefield.

He sold the items that those people dropped back to them at a higher price.

Of course, he didn’t sell the items that contained Transcendent powers, such as the monocular. There was no way that he would give it back to them.

It was because the monocular could detect the attributes of a monster, which was even more practical than its Transcendent ability.

Because there were too many spoils of war, the transactions and procurements took an entire day.

After the last deal was accomplished, many people of the Twin Dragon Mount fort returned with a bunch of spoils.

Considering the flow of time on the Battlefield of Providence, it had been about three months since they left the Twin Dragon Mount fort.

There was no telling what was new about the fort yet.
