Imperial Thunder's suggestion caused Lifeless Blade to fall silent for a moment. Shortly after, he nodded his head.
An additional friend meant an additional path. If one wished to survive in the game, it was necessary to make friends with as many people as possible, especially experts.
"If we approach him rashly and disturb him, we should be careful when we speak. After all, every expert has a different personality. Some are cheerful, some are cold, and some are arrogant. If we were to provoke him, it would be counterproductive," Lifeless Blade said softly.
"Mhm, I know that," Imperial Thunder laughed foolishly.
"You know?" Lifeless Blade rolled his eyes at Imperial Thunder. "The last time we met, Yuan Fei, one of the Ten Great Newcomers of the gaming world, how did you provoke him?"
"That's because he went overboard. He actually wanted all the equipment and even rolled randomly." Even now, Imperial Thunder still held a grudge against Yuan Fei.
After encountering a Lord ranked SS in the fields, he kindly invited Yuan Fei to fight the SS. In the end, after the SS was killed, all the equipment it dropped were rolled. After all, killing the SS required the efforts of over a dozen people. Not only that, he even had to roll for the equipment that he could not use.
Yuan Fei even said that he could sell the equipment that he could not use.
"You should've just talked about that matter. At worst, we won't contact each other in the future. There's no need for us to be enemies. Yet, you started a fight without saying anything. That's not making friends, but making enemies. Even now, Yuan Fei still hates us." Lifeless Blade was speechless when he recalled the incident at that time.
Yuan Fei was one of the Ten Great Newcomers of the virtual gaming world this year. The Star Alliance had spent an annual salary of two million Credits to recruit him.
Because they had provoked that narrow-minded Yuan Fei, the Star Alliance had bullied them many times. It had become increasingly difficult for them to survive in Star-Moon City. If not for Lifeless Blade being acquainted with the Star Alliance's Guild Leader, they would have already been kicked out of Star-Moon City.
"I understand. I won't do it again, "Imperial Thunder said softly. In reality, he knew that he was in the wrong. However, his straightforward temper was not easy to change.
Just as the two of them were quietly chatting as they walked through Xiang Shifeng …
Shifeng had already taken a look at the prices of goods in Star-Moon City.
Overall, the prices were cheaper than White River City.
In White River City, a stack of Hard Stones could sell for 10 Silver Coins. However, the Whetstone was only worth 9 silver coins, and so was the Whetstone. A stack of Whetstones could sell for 35 Silver Coins in White River City. Here, however, it only sold for 32 Silver Coins. On the other hand, the price of Advanced Whetstones was about the same, selling for 1 Gold Coin per stack.
On the other hand, Mysterious-Iron Weapons and Equipment were 10% to 20% more expensive than in White River City. As for Secret-Silver Weapons and Equipment, they were 30% to 40% more expensive.
"Sure enough, the more people there are, the more resources there will be. Mysterious-Iron Equipment, which is rare even in White River City, can be found in plenty here. There's even someone selling Secret-Silver Equipment. As expected of the capital city, there are many more experts here than in other cities. "Shifeng could clearly feel how intense the competition in Star-Moon City was from the items in the Auction House.
It was precisely because of such intense competition that experts emerged in large numbers. Each and every one of them racked their brains to increase their strength and slowly climbed up the ranks in this city filled with experts.
Otherwise, why would such precious Secret-Silver Equipment appear in the Auction House?
It was impossible for Guilds to sell weapons and equipment above Mysterious-Iron rank. To Guilds, such weapons and equipment were strategic resources. At most, they would sell equipment crafted by forgers. However, which forger could craft Secret-Silver Equipment at this stage of the game?
Even Shifeng himself, who possessed many supplementary tools, had difficulty crafting Secret-Silver Equipment. Not to mention, other forgers could only craft Bronze Equipment at most. Mysterious-Iron Equipment was their limit.
Meanwhile, the Secret-Silver Weapons and Equipment in the Auction House were all obtained by independent teams. To increase the team's strength and reduce their consumption, the Auction House would only auction Secret-Silver Weapons and Equipment.
In White River City, there were only a handful of independent teams that could obtain Secret-Silver Weapons and Equipment. Based on Shifeng's knowledge, only the Holy Grail Knights, which he had encountered by chance previously, had such an ability. Meanwhile, Star-Moon City had quite a few of them. One could just imagine the difference between the two cities.
"It seems that they want to enter Star-Moon City's market. Only high-end equipment will have the best effect. " At this moment, the Fine-Gold ranked Dragonscale Set Equipment appeared in Shifeng's mind. It might be a good choice to rely on the Dragonscale Set Equipment to enter Star-Moon City's market. However, his forging standards were somewhat low. Cream Cocoa, for example, was currently an Advanced Forging Apprentice and was trying to become a Forger.
However, if he wished to enter Star-Moon City's market, he still needed to fulfill one condition. After all, Shifeng's Guild was based in White River City. If he established a Branch Guild in Star-Moon City, the large Guilds in Star-Moon City would likely annihilate him within minutes. Hence, he needed a shop to conduct business.
However, if he wished to purchase a small stall in Star-Moon City, he needed to become a noble of Star-Moon City, not to mention a shop. At the very least, he needed to be a Baron of Star-Moon City.
Sure enough, if he did not solve the problem of a shop, he would not be able to enter Star-Moon City's market.
After all, the 15% processing fee in the Auction House was simply too expensive. More importantly, only independent teams and independent players would sell items in the Auction House. If he wished to develop himself and earn a large amount of money and fame, he needed a shop of his own.
"Hello, friend. I am Lifeless Blade. Seeing that you have come to the Auction House, I assume that you wish to sell some equipment. I am somewhat famous in Star-Moon City, and I have many channels. If you have equipment with good Attributes and wish to sell it for a good price, I can help you," Lifeless Blade said, smiling as he walked up to Shi Feng.
"Sell equipment?" Shifeng took a look at his own attire, discovering that the weapons and equipment he wore were much better than everyone present. There was definitely no demand for the items sold in the Auction House. Since there was no demand, the chances of him selling equipment was very high. After all, with such good equipment, there would definitely be some obsolete weapons and equipment that needed to be disposed of. Immediately, Shifeng shook his head and said, "No, you've misunderstood. I'm just looking around."
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood." Lifeless Blade realized that he had been too decisive. Embarrassed, he said, "I'm not here to earn a middleman's fee. I just wish to make a friend."
"This is my brother, Imperial Thunder."
Imperial Thunder nodded his head, slightly dazed. After observing the Abyssal Blade and Demonslayer at such a close distance, he was deeply mesmerized by their handsome appearance.
A Dark-Gold Weapon!
Even the Guild Leader of the Star Alliance, a first-rate Guild, did not possess such a powerful weapon. He wondered what the Attributes of the Abyssal Blade would be. Would it be much stronger than the Secret-Silver Weapon in his hands?
Seeing Imperial Thunder staring at the weapons at Shifeng's waist, almost drooling, Lifeless Blade patted Imperial Thunder's shoulder. He then smiled at Shifeng and said, "Sorry for the teasing. He's not usually like this."
Shifeng had been adventuring in God's Domain for many years, so he was quite accurate in judging people. Naturally, he could tell that these two did not harbor any ill intentions and only wished to befriend him. Moreover, Shifeng had more or less heard about Lifeless Blade and Imperial Thunder. He knew that these two were definitely not sinister villains. Lifeless Blade belonged to the calm and steady type. On the other hand, Imperial Thunder was purely a straightforward person.
"It's fine. I can tell that Brother Imperial Thunder is a straightforward person." Shifeng waved his hand and smiled, saying, "Since Brother Blade wishes to befriend me, it is my honor."
Lifeless Blade's eyes immediately lit up. He never thought that Shifeng would be so easy to get along with. He was also very easy-going.
Hence, the two of them started chatting, especially when it came to combat techniques. Lifeless Blade was utterly shocked by Shifeng. He finally understood why everyone regarded Shifeng as a god-ranked expert.
After chatting for over half an hour, thanks to Lifeless Blade, Shifeng gained a detailed understanding of the situation in Star-Moon City.
