Pew, pew, pew …
Li Beihai drove the off-road vehicle back to Arachne Valley.
Seeing the awakened corpses on the ground and hearing about the ambush, Li Beihai was shocked.
"Thank goodness you're all right. Thank goodness you're all right …"
Li Beihai heaved a sigh of relief, his thick brows furrowed. "Are you sure they're from the Bo Tu Guild?"
"Yes, we caught one alive." Bai Xiaowen gestured to Zhang Zhan, who was already in his human bat-like state.
"Four Level 8 to 9 elites ambushed you, but you killed three of them and even captured one alive?" Li Beihai finally remembered how shocking the battle between Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi was. He took a deep look at the three corpses on the ground and finally fixed his gaze on the level 9 awakened Zhang Zhan. "You two … have really become very powerful."
"Daddy is still the best. When you were here, they didn't even dare to make a move." Li Shuyi was indeed a considerate child.
Li Beihai shook his head. "Forget it … If it were me, I might be able to defeat these four guys, but it would be very difficult to kill all of them, let alone capture them alive."
After a pause, Li Beihai looked at Bai Xiaowen and said, "What do you plan to do next?"
"I don't have much experience in this area, so I'd like to hear the president's advice," Bai Xiaowen said.
Li Beihai nodded. "With the combat information from the spirit world as evidence, the process of their ambush on you is undeniable. As long as this matter is submitted to the Awakened Association, this person will most likely be sentenced to death or life imprisonment. Your action of killing three awakened ones is justified self-defense. You won't get into any trouble. "
Bai Xiaowen said, "If that's the only outcome, I might as well have killed this guy and taken the treasure chest."
Zhang Zhan had been closing his eyes and pretending to be an ostrich. When he heard Bai Xiaowen's words, his head shrank even more.
Li Shuyi said with a smile, "What should we do? The 30 minutes of justifiable self-defense have already passed. Even if we kill him, our combat evaluation won't increase. Instead, it will decrease. "
Li Beihai said, "What I just said is the worst case scenario. From our standpoint, we definitely have to find the mastermind behind the scenes, which is the vice guild leader of Bo Tu Guild, Zhao Yannian. If that's the case, you'll still have to appeal to the Awakened Association. "
"Can you find him?" Bai Xiaowen asked, "I mean, can Zhao Yannian plead guilty and be executed if this fuse is used on him?"
"It's hard to say, but I will try my best to push this matter forward," Li Beihai said.
"Alright, let's do that then."
"You two shouldn't participate in the road clearing mission for the time being," Li Beihai said. "After this incident, I'm worried about you two in the wilderness. Hurry up and report back to school. We'll talk about it when the final outcome of this matter is confirmed. "
"That's not necessary … I don't think there will be a second wave of assassins anytime soon," Bai Xiaowen said.
"There's nothing wrong with being careful. Don't take this kind of risk," Li Beihai said very seriously. There was no room for negotiation.
"Alright." Bai Xiaowen could only listen to the guild leader and Mr. Tai Shan.
The off-road vehicle drove back to Jinghai City. Then, Li Beihai ordered people to organize the information, including Zhang Zhan's confession, the combat information (printed copy) shared by Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi, and so on. The evidence was detailed and solid.
Li Beihai took the information and personally escorted Zhang Zhan to the Awakened Association.
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi drove to Jinghai University to report. Actually, it was because Jinghai University's environment was very safe. It was much safer than Jinghai City.
In Bai Xiaowen's previous plan, other than the collective guild clean-up operation, such as producing potions to supply Super Godly Potion Shop and transporting materials to his own virtual shop, etc., were still carried out as usual. It did not matter where he was.
While Bai Xiaowen was driving, Li Shuyi sat in the passenger seat and opened the three treasure chests dropped by Zhao You and the other Awakened.
Out of the three treasure chests, two of them were B-rated. This was already a grade higher. There were two chances to draw, which was not bad. As for the Sniper Chen Tianyou, the treasure chest he dropped was actually A-rated. There were three chances to draw!
This was not only one more chance to draw, but it also meant that the overall value of the items in the treasure chests had increased by a small level. It was easier to draw good items.
"You are a Level-5 Elite. For killing a Level-8 Elite, the initial B-rating given by the rules of the Spiritual Realm is indeed not high. Coupled with the bonus of legitimate self-defense, you finally rose to A-rated."
Bai Xiaowen drove steadily and said with a smile, "Let's see what's in the Bloody Cards. I got my Desert Eagle from one of them. I was happy for a long time."
Li Shuyi nodded and began to draw cards.
First, there were two B-rated treasure chests. He had drawn four times in a row, and he had drawn some health food and miscellaneous items. The value was not high. The best he had drawn was a Blue bracer.
"My luck is that bad?" Li Shuyi raised his eyebrows.
"Haha, these two treasure chests are equivalent to the drops of Elites. Even if those Awakened have reached the Advanced level, how many good items can they have? I bet most of them are Blue equipment. There are only a few rare Gold equipment, "Bai Xiaowen said with a smile.
Because of this, when Bai Xiaowen had drawn the Desert Eagle from an Ordinary Level-3 Awakened's Bloody Card, he had felt that his luck was off the charts and he had been happy for a few days.
The other party had probably gone to the Spiritual Realm a few times, and all his gains had been from this Desert Eagle. Other than that, he had only obtained some White or even Coarse equipment.
Li Shuyi opened the Sniper Chen Tianyou's treasure chest and clicked on the Bloody Card. "If there's nothing good this time, I won't draw cards for a month!"
Whoosh!
A ray of golden light shone in the car.
"You have received a Gold equipment: Strongbow (Additional equipment: Elven Quiver)."
[Strongbow (Bound upon Pickup)] (Upgrade Level + 7)
[Grade: Hero (Gold)]
[Equipment Position: Two-handed]
[Equipment Requirements: Base Strength 15, Base Agility 25]
[Attributes: Attack 17 – 41 (Base Attack 10 – 24)]
[Additional Skills: Power Shot: Passive effect. When charging, the damage of the next shot will increase by one point. Description: This bow represents all the glory of a Wind Speaker Ranger. Feel the flow of the wind and listen to the whispers of death.]
This was a + 7 Gold equipment!
It was definitely the most valuable equipment on Chen Tianyou. Weapons were already very valuable, let alone a + 7 Gold weapon.
In addition to the shocking increase in attack power of 17 – 41, the Strongbow had two additional effects.
[Level 4 Enhanced Special Effect: Cold Blood: Passive effect. When charging for Power Shot, the attack rate of the next shot will increase by one point. Enhanced Special Effect: Wind Chaser: Passive effect. When charging for Power Shot for three seconds, the next shot will have a knockback effect.] The closer the enemy is to you when the arrow is shot, the further the knockback distance will be.
As for the additional equipment, the Elven Quiver, it was the same as the quiver Bai Xiaowen had received before. It had the special effect of "regenerating one arrow every ten seconds." The maximum number of arrows was 20.
The only difference was that the Elven Quiver was filled with beautifully carved Elven arrows. The additional attack power was as high as 4 points. It was much more high-end than Bai Xiaowen's iron quiver.
"It's a very good piece of Gold equipment. The basic attack power is high enough. It also comes with a decent skill. Most importantly, it's already + 7. The additional value of the equipment has increased by tens of thousands of Psionic Points," Bai Xiaowen said.
The basic attack power of a two-handed bow was already very high. This was also related to the speed of the arrows. It was considered a slow attack, one step slower than the Desert Eagle.
"This equipment is for you." Li Shuyi handed the Strongbow and the Elven Quiver to Bai Xiaowen.
Although Li Shuyi had learned the Advanced Shooting skill during his class advancement, it was only at Level 1. He did not continue to train it, so it was very difficult for him to unleash the full power of this weapon.
Bai Xiaowen shook his head. "It's not very suitable for me. To equip this bow means that I have to give up my off-hand equipment, the Demonic Book of Ravings, and my main weapon, the Desert Eagle. Losing three points of maximum Spirit and losing a highly randomized Ravings skill is secondary. The Desert Eagle's Rapid Fire skill is irreplaceable. "
Bai Xiaowen had the Bloodthirst skill from the Blood Essence Stone, which meant that he had a high requirement for attack speed. This Strongbow was like a sniper rifle. Its single shot damage was very high, but its attack speed was much slower than the Desert Eagle's.
After thinking about it carefully, Bai Xiaowen said, "However, sometimes this equipment might have a miraculous effect. In a situation where the enemy is in the open and I'm in the dark, the first shot of a sneak attack is still very powerful. After entering combat mode, you can also spend some time switching equipment. "
No matter what, the value of this piece of equipment was very high. Li Shuyi's depression from not getting anything good from the previous few draws was swept away, and a happy smile appeared on her face.
After returning to Jinghai University's Taoran Residence, Li Shuyi rolled up his sleeves and began to clean. After being away for more than a month, a thin layer of dust had accumulated in the Taoran Residence.
Bai Xiaowen wanted to help, but Li Shuyi refused. She felt that Bai Xiaowen was too busy. She didn't want Bai Xiaowen to do such a small thing.
Bai Xiaowen first logged into the Virtual Combat Platform and looked at the business situation of the virtual store.
The "Saber Kills Many People" store now had a credit rating of B2, which was on par with the "Fully Armed" store across the street. The size of the store had increased several times compared to before.
Having a store of this scale in the Virtual Combat Hall was equivalent to having a hen that laid golden eggs. Even if Bai Xiaowen didn't have a supply of goods, he could sell booths. Just like opening a store in a large shopping mall, he could rent out the booths to other Awakened who needed to sell goods but didn't have a store with a high credit rating.
He could collect rent (Psionic Points) without doing anything. Of course, this kind of rental method had its risks. If the Awakened who rented the booths maliciously violated the rules, such as not delivering the goods when they had an order, casually canceling the order, etc., it would lower the store's credit rating and damage the store's reputation.
Due to this consideration, Bai Xiaowen didn't rent out the booths to the public for the time being. The "Saber Kills Many People" store still focused on rough quality novice equipment (bound after equipping). The slogan was "Wholeheartedly serving the Awakened and contributing to the cause of human evolution on Earth …"
Not renting out the booths to the public didn't mean that it couldn't be rented to the internal market. Previously, after Bai Xiaowen signed the agreement, the "Saber Kills Many People" store had signed an agreement with the Super Gods. The Super Gods could put their psionic items on consignment for sale in the booths here. The rent they paid wasn't particularly high, but Bai Xiaowen was interested in the fact that the guild wouldn't cheat his credit rating. Every successful transaction would also help him increase his credit rating.
Li Beihai once lamented that with the decline of the Super Gods, the former guild store had been reduced to a C-grade store. The customer flow couldn't be compared to Bai Xiaowen's store at all.
This also showed Bai Xiaowen's rocket-like speed of growth. In less than a year, Bai Xiaowen had achieved such success. This was also what he had earned by risking his life time and time again in the spiritual realm.
Li Beihai also gradually recognized Bai Xiaowen's way of doing things. When he had a 70% chance of success, he dared to go all in and rely on his own intelligence and wisdom to fight for the remaining 30% chance of success. This kind of way of doing things had a certain degree of gambling. Once it succeeded, it would bring about considerable benefits. If it continued to succeed, it would snowball an amazing amount of income.
Bai Xiaowen walked into his store and was surprised to find that Zhang Bo was also there. It wasn't a robot looking after the store. He suddenly remembered that it was the afternoon now. It was the time when Zhang Bo confirmed the order and prepared to deliver the goods.
"Hi." Bai Xiaowen walked up to Zhang Bo.
Zhang Bo didn't raise his head. While copying the order and address, he said, "I'm sorry, I'm not the boss. I'm just an employee … No matter how much you tell me, I don't have the authority to lower the price … Uh, boss?"
In the past, Zhang Bo used to call him "Brother Expert," but now he actually called him boss.
"Brother Zhang, how's the store doing recently?"
Zhang Bo said with a smile, "The sales volume is a few thousand psionic points every day. I can only say that it can't be better … After the New Year, the sales volume dropped. Now, it's still around two to three thousand psionic points."
Bai Xiaowen nodded and said, "The low-level equipment market will eventually be saturated. We can only develop the markets around Jinghai City. We can't reach the markets that are too far away. No matter how low the price is, the buyers will be scared off by the expensive shipping costs. "
Zhang Bo nodded. "Now, in the trading records, the most stable food is still rye bread, which is a type of health recovery food. The sales volume continues to be hot. Boss, when I went to the Super Gods headquarters to pick up the goods yesterday, the rye bread was almost sold out. "
"I'll restock later." Bai Xiaowen asked again, "How's the store across the street? Have you checked it out?"
