Kaede Sato saw that the internal trading market in front of him was still very lively even though it was almost midnight. He couldn't help but show an expression of "I knew it" on his face.
In fact, when he left the temporary dormitory, he saw a lot of contestants heading there in groups of twos and threes. These people must have weighed the difficulty and pros and cons of the competition.
Tonight was the final preparation before the competition. If they didn't hurry up and exchange the useless things in their hands for things that could help them increase their chances of winning the competition, they probably wouldn't be able to use the things they had in their hands in the future.
Unfortunately, there was no such thing as quitting midway in the competition. The only way to quit the competition was to be defeated by other opponents in the competition or be defeated by the sprites on the mysterious island.
As soon as Kaede Sato entered the internal trading market, he saw stalls selling information and maps of the mysterious island the most.
Looking down, at least seven or eight of the ten stalls were either selling information or maps of the mysterious island.
The market had the ability to adjust itself. As long as there was demand, the corresponding goods would always appear on the market quickly for sale.
These veterans of the Rocket who were stationed at the base of the Rocket were all experienced. They naturally knew that the second stage of the rookie competition would be held on the mysterious island, and they also knew the rules of the competition.
Therefore, some business-minded veterans of the Rocket had begun to prepare information and draw accurate maps of the mysterious island early on. They then wanted to use these things to make huge profits from Kaede Sato and the other contestants.
Now, for Kaede Sato and the other contestants who were about to enter the second stage of the rookie competition on the mysterious island, information on their opponents and accurate maps were too important.
The former could greatly allow them to have a full understanding of the opponents they were facing, thereby preventing them from being blind and fighting with those powerful contestants. This would then increase their chances of clearing the stage.
The latter could prevent them from being blind on the mysterious island and greatly reduce the chances of them accidentally entering a dangerous place, thereby greatly increasing their chances of survival.
Therefore, in order to obtain these two things, Kaede Sato and the other Rocket soldiers were being ruthlessly extorted by a group of veteran Rocket soldiers.
But now, it was Zhou Yu beating up Wang Gai. One was willing to take the beating, while the other was willing to take the beating.
Seeing this situation, Kaede Sato took a deep breath, and then joined in the feast of being fish and meat.
However, when Kaede Sato really joined the feast, he realized that he had met a real black-hearted businessman.
"Little brother, come and have a look. This book has detailed information on the participants. If you want it, you can use items worth 5,000 achievement points, 10,000 points, or 200 million Alliance dollars to exchange for it …"
As soon as Kaede Sato passed by a stall selling intelligence, a fat member of the Rocket Team put his fat face up to Kaede Sato. He then picked up a thick book and started bragging to Kaede Sato.
As for the information of the other contestants, Kaede Sato only had a rough introduction to the name list. Therefore, he was very interested in the introduction book of the contestants recommended by the fat stall owner.
Although the fat stall owner had raised the price of the book to a very high level, it was still acceptable with his financial resources. Of course, he still needed to conduct a simple inspection before he bought it.
After inspecting the goods, Kaede Sato was dumbfounded. The content of this thick introduction book was actually not as good as the name list in his hand.
Instead of saying it was a book, it was more like a photo album. Eighty percent of the content was filled with a large number of photos. As for the contestants' information, it was limited to basic information such as name, age, height, and so on.
Naturally, Kaede Sato had no interest in such a strange introduction book. He immediately threw it to the fat stall owner and then walked to the next stall selling contestants' information.
Kaede Sato walked around the bustling internal trading market. He helplessly discovered that the contestant information sold by the intelligence dealers here was actually very fragmented.
Most of the information was not as good as the name list in his hand. At most, it could only give people a rough understanding of the basic information of the other contestants. As for the most important contestants, the information on the Wisps in their hands was pitifully little.
So far, the most detailed introduction book that Kaede Sato had seen came from the hands of a mysterious seller covered in a black robe.
Even so, the introduction book only introduced the basic information of the contestants and the Wisps in their hands. There was no detailed explanation of the contestants' Wisps at all.
The price of this introduction book had reached 500 million Alliance dollars. It was no different from robbery.
However, even though they knew that these veterans of the Rocket were robbing them, many contestants still chose to spend all their money to buy these introduction books.
Some of the contestants were very smart. Although they were short of money, it was still possible for a few people to pool their money and buy one book. As for how the money would be distributed later? These questions were unknown.
Kaede Sato was now very glad that he did not extort Nogu. Instead, he gave the Energy Cube to the other party. The name list that the other party gave him was far more valuable than the information of the contestants sold by the veterans of the Rocket.
Because of this, Kaede Sato could save at least a few hundred million Alliance dollars.
Understanding the opponent's information was already very expensive. Naturally, a map of the mysterious island that could increase one's chances of survival was even more expensive.
Fortunately, unlike the simple and crude information on the contestants, the veterans of the Rocket had a very good understanding of the terrain of the mysterious island. The map that they drew was much more detailed than the map that was distributed during the conference.
However, because every veteran of the Rocket explored a different area of the island, and the explored area was extremely limited, the map that they drew only covered a small part of the mysterious island even though it was very accurate and detailed.
It seemed that the map of the mysterious island drawn by these veterans was like a fragmented jigsaw puzzle.
Moreover, most of these maps were only a small part of the outermost area of the mysterious island. As for a small part of the detailed map of the inner area of the mysterious island, Kaede Sato had only seen three of them so far.
As for the detailed maps of the inner regions of the mysterious island, their value was naturally much higher than those of the outer regions. If one were to use Alliance dollars to calculate the price, the cheapest copy would cost one billion Alliance dollars. This was really an exorbitant price.
However, at this time, Kaede Sato saw a real nouveau riche.
Sakaki Tomoaki, the contestant with the most powerful background in this competition, shocked everyone with one move. He bought three detailed maps of the inner area with a total value of four billion Alliance dollars.
In this regard, Kaede Sato could only think that the other party was really inhumane. In the end, he gritted his teeth and spent three hundred million Alliance dollars to buy a relatively detailed map of the eastern area of the mysterious island.
After buying the map, Kaede Sato began to focus his attention on some of the stalls with various elf props. Compared to the contestant information and the detailed map of the mysterious island, he was more concerned about the Junior Resurrection Potion.
Unfortunately, this life-saving item was also the lifeblood of the Rocket veterans in this base. Kaede Sato walked through the entire market and did not find anyone selling it.
In the end, Kaede Sato had to find a place with a good location and set up his own stall. The item he was selling was naturally the quasi-heavenly king-level ancient giant dragonfly.
In the logistics department, this ancient giant dragonfly was worth 6,000 merit points, but Kaede Sato knew that its value was far more than that.
Kaede Sato believed that as long as he took out this ancient giant dragonfly to sell, it would definitely attract the attention of many Rocket veterans here, and they would be willing to pay a great price, even if it meant using the Junior Resurrection Potion, which was equivalent to a second life.
For any trainer, a powerful Wisp was the capital that would allow them to gain a foothold and continue to grow stronger. This was especially true for the veterans of the Rocket, who were in danger every day.
The probability of the elves in the hands of the Rocket veterans here dying was obviously much higher than that of the trainers outside.
Once the powerful elves that they had painstakingly cultivated died, even if they used the Junior Resurrection Potion to save their lives, there was a high probability that they would die in the next battle.
Therefore, none of the Rocket veterans here would complain about having more powerful elves in their hands.
