Gu Dong was very envious of the Tree Shade's rune equipment. He had also sent people to the Tree Shade to buy some Demon Slayer Longswords for research.
Later, the Adventurer's Guild launched an advanced rune equipment exchange program. He deliberately sent a team of elite hunters disguised as adventurers to complete missions every day and use points to exchange for various types of advanced rune equipment.
Then … the more they bought, the more they exchanged, the more they successfully raised the average consumption level of the Tree Shade hunters, setting a new high for the Tree Shade Supermarket's turnover and the Adventurer's Guild's team's mission completion.
Gu Dong was actually very aggrieved. He was peeking at the Tree Shade's equipment manufacturing method. However … no one would believe it. It was the Tree Shade who made the first move!
He didn't even have a name for the plan, but the business was taken away by the Tree Shade.
In the long run, the auction will close, and the supermarket will lose money. It's foreseeable.
Gu Dong knew in his heart that if he wanted to save the business, he must have enough competitiveness. And the key point of competitiveness was rune equipment.
However, even the Academy of Sciences could barely make inferior rune equipment. The researchers under him, even if they scrapped a number of rune equipment that was enough to make him feel heartache, they still couldn't achieve any results.
As one of Lindong's giants, Gu Dong felt desperate.
He opened his eyes and looked at his confidant secretary, "Have you parsed those scrolls?"
The secretary shook his head, "We have secretly found several experts in the field of language. It is estimated that in another three to five days, we can parse a small part of it."
"What about the other things in the secret realm?"
The secretary thought for a moment, "The powder in several containers, after testing, contains a variety of unknown ingredients, but they have lost their effect. It is speculated that it has been left for too long."
"Many other artifacts have also become fragile because they have been left for too long. Now the experts are measuring the age of the artifacts. Due to material, composition, and other reasons, it can't be measured with simple instruments. But it is estimated that those artifacts have been left for tens of thousands of years, or even longer."
This speculation was within Gu Dong's expectations.
Although it seemed incredible that there was a civilization tens of thousands of years ago, it was nothing compared to the demonic beasts that came from another plane and the secret news he learned through various channels.
Not to mention that these items were all brought out from the secret realm.
It was because he had secretly mastered a secret realm that Gu Dong was so sure that Tree Shade could reach this step because of the secret realm's gift.
'It's a pity that the area of the secret realm is very small. The buildings and artifacts inside are basically abandoned. The scrolls that are most likely to be of high value are temporarily unable to be translated … Fortunately, the materials used to make the scrolls are special. Even after such a long time, the shapes of the words on them can still be recognized.'
Gu Dong thought for a moment, turned his head, and looked out the window.
"In three days, the Tree Shade Commercial District will open." He gently kicked the office chair back, facing the secretary, "Since the Tree Shade has sent an invitation, then let's go. Remember to prepare a gift."
The secretary was stunned for a moment and answered. She looked as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything again. Instead, she gently closed the door after saying goodbye.
"If I can find the secret realm controlled by the Tree Shade and crack the mystery of the rune equipment, it's the best result. If I can't, although in Lindong, the relationship between me and the Tree Shade is a competitive relationship. But if it's in the entire province, domestic, the relationship … is different."
"This world is so big …"
Gu Dong stared ahead, seemingly unfocused.
…
…
Tree Shade Shelter.
With the construction of the commercial district, as the news of the rune equipment gradually spread, more and more hunters were active around the Tree Shade.
Not only Lindong mercenaries, but also active in the southern part of the Tree Shade, where there were many small shelters. Any hunters with some strength enough to cross the wilderness had prepared enough spirit stones and rushed to the Tree Shade.
Some small shelter leaders, in order to exchange for advanced rune equipment, deliberately registered with the Adventurer's Guild to complete the mission.
The number of ordinary survivors in the territory had also increased during this time.
Tang Yu had seen the latest statistics. The number of registered survivors, including hunters, had exceeded the 4,000 mark. The rapid growth was due to the long-term mission hanging on the Adventurer's Guild's front page.
Search and rescue mission.
An ordinary survivor was rewarded with 2 guild points. Some technical talents, such as medical personnel, scientific researchers, etc., were rewarded with 10 to 100 points.
The emergence of the search and rescue mission greatly alleviated the embarrassment of the Adventurer's Guild's insufficient number of missions. In a short period of time, the number of survivors in the territory ushered in a new high. This was also because the commercial district was about to be established. The rapid development of the territory not only needed hunters but also more and more ordinary people. That's why Tang Yu issued such a mission.
The midday sun was very scorching. Only the area near the Tree Shade Shelter was cooler.
Some people often said that the location of the Tree Shade Shelter was a treasure land. Even some ability users noticed that the ability used in the resort, especially the elemental ability, seemed to be a little more powerful than usual.
However, even though the temperature in the territory was suitable, there weren't many hunters still in the shelter at this time of the day.
Stimulated by the advanced rune equipment, the adventurers were full of energy and crazily accepted the mission. Those who couldn't grab the mission also actively went out to hunt demonic beasts and exchange spirit stones for points. Even if it was a loss.
In terms of motivation, they were several streets behind the Luoxia hunters. Especially every time a hunter exchanged the equipment they wanted, they suddenly found that the Adventurer's Guild had double??? Glancing at Chondroyl? Alliance? Eggplant? Protect? Xi Huai Weng Du Jiao Ma Di IV, Mu Shun Xiao Xue.
At this time, in the wilderness.
Several hunters stood on the cracked road, squinting their eyes and looking into the distance.
"A little further ahead is the Tree Shade Shelter. Does this shelter really have weapons that can easily tear through the demonic beast's defense?"
The speaker was a woman, her tone mixed with expectation and doubt.
This team consisted of three men and two women. They were travel-worn, and their faces were tired. They seemed to have survived in the wild for a long time.
Each of them carried a huge backpack made by themselves, and wore simple clothes made of animal skin. Some of the clothes had scales the size of washbasins embedded in their chests and backs.
The weapons in these people's hands were also a wide variety.
There were irregular long wooden sticks, spikes and wooden strips of special materials tied together, blood-stained claws tied to the wrist … These weapons were made from the parts of the demonic beasts and were self-made.
Long-term exposure to the sun made these people's skin look dark. The two young women in the team were also unkempt, their faces couldn't be seen clearly.
Another woman said, "I hope so. With our current weapons, it's getting more and more difficult to deal with demonic beasts. If we can get a handy weapon, it'll be easier to cross a few more cities."
The square-faced man in front of them had an apologetic look in his eyes, "I'm the one who dragged you down and made you follow me to death."
"Captain, what nonsense are you talking about! Your family is our family. Besides, even if we don't travel thousands of miles, where is safe in this doomsday? We still have to risk our lives every day. "
"That's right." The others echoed.
