Equivalence.
What was equivalence?
It was hard to determine.
The most direct example was for a person like Lawless, friends and family were priceless. Don't expect anything from him, he would return it to you. Instead, you had to worry about whether or not Lawless would beat you to a pulp if you made such a request.
Broker, however, was different.
As long as it was beneficial to him, he would exchange anything.
As for his feelings?
Stop joking.
Those kinds of people would exchange their feelings for the value of a trade.
Kieran was also willing to trade.
However, unlike Broker, Kieran knew what he could trade and what he couldn't.
Just like how he knew he couldn't hurt Starbeck and Lawless.
Because both of them treated him with sincerity.
If others treated him with sincerity, he must treat others with sincerity as well.
It was what Principal Romuse told him.
He had always kept it in his heart.
Even his most difficult life didn't change his way of thinking.
Some might laugh at his childish way of thinking, but Kieran didn't care.
After all, if he lost his bottom line … would he still be himself?
Maybe he would.
However, Kieran didn't want to see that 'him' again.
He didn't even want to try.
From a certain aspect, it was considered an abstract equivalent exchange.
However, most people didn't want to do it.
Bang, Bang.
The knocking stopped abruptly.
Kieran looked up as he thought of something again.
"At your service."
Bloody Mary bowed.
"Go, search the area within a 10 km radius of the core of the Philosopher's Stone."
Kieran said.
"Understood."
Bloody Mary quickly reacted to the situation, turning around and vanishing.
Kieran chuckled.
"Hope there will be some unexpected gains."
He said.
Up until this point, it wasn't surprising that Victor wanted to retrieve the core of the Philosopher's Stone, it was even reasonable.
However, in order to rely on the core of the Philosopher's Stone to salvage the situation, there was a prerequisite: having enough valuable items.
Based on Bloody Mary's description, Victor wasn't in a good state after he purposely set everything up.
After getting their hands on the core of the [Philosopher's Stone], Kieran would surely complete the Equivalent Exchange in the shortest time possible, so it was natural that the items in exchange would not be placed too far away.
A radius of ten kilometers was a suitable range.
Kieran leaned back in his chair.
He silently thanked Victor in his heart again.
The kind that was sincere and sincere.
The other party had helped him too many times.
Back at Ring City.
At this moment, not only did he prepare an item of equivalent exchange, but he also obtained an extremely important reference material.
Especially the latter.
If he could achieve it, it would be enough for him to complete some of his ideas.
Kieran did not leave the underground storeroom.
He waited quietly.
Bloody Mary didn't disappoint him.
Half an hour later, he returned with a box.
“Boss。”
Bloody Mary opened the box and passed it to Kieran.
Inside was a dagger.
The blade was long and narrow, the hilt was curved, and under the light, it was glowing in green red.
[Name: Goethe Blade]
[Type: Weapon]
[Rarity: II]
[Attack: II]
[Attribute: 1. Slash; 2. Silent Burning]
[Effect: None]
[Prerequisite: None]
[Able to bring out of dungeon: No]
[Remark: Goethe Blade came from the legendary Demon Hunter Goethe a hundred years ago. Together with the Demon Hunter, it enjoyed the peak of glory.]
…
[Slash: Any being cut by Goethe Blade (including soul type beings) will undergo a Constitution authentication no lower than rank II. If the target passes the authentication, the target will receive a second damage of Powerful rank. If the target fails the authentication, the wound will remain in a bleeding state and the target will not be able to self-heal or heal.]
[Silent Burning: When the bleeding status lasts for 12 hours, a rank II Fire Damage will occur. Flames will burst out from the wound and engulf the whole body of a standard unit (using a human as the standard unit). When Silent Burning is triggered, the severed status will disappear.]
…
Looking at the dagger in his hand, Kieran's eyes shone brightly.
No doubt, [Goethe Blade] was a decent dagger, the two attributes were quite practical.
However, what concerned Kieran the most was the value of [Goethe Blade].
"Using equipment and items as an equivalent exchange?"
Kieran muttered to himself, the corner of his mouth curling up into a grin.
What he lacked the least right now was equipment and items.
"Stand guard here."
Kieran ordered before he turned around and walked down the stairs.
Bloody Mary bowed and sat down on the broken chair. Although it was curious about the future developments of the farm, it wouldn't disobey Kieran's order.
However, it didn't mean it didn't know what was happening outside.
After all, Bloody Mary had its own men at the moment.
Pak!
Mimicking Kieran's action, Bloody Mary snapped its fingers.
Several spirits that were hiding around Roze Farm shared their vision with Bloody Mary.
Kieran, who was on his way down the stairs, knew what Bloody Mary was doing.
Kieran didn't mind though.
He was even willing to do it.
He knew how great the benefits would be if he did it.
In this dungeon world, as time went by, what he lacked the most wasn't his sealed strength anymore, but manpower!
Kieran never thought he was omnipotent.
He had things he was good at.
There were also things he wasn't good at.
Just like the learning of witchcraft and mystical knowledge, Kieran had to concentrate fully and spend a lot of time and effort to get started, but Bloody Mary learned it after a quick glance.
It was the difference in talent and focus.
If the Old Book was here, Kieran believed the old book wouldn't just learn faster, he might even be able to derive knowledge that was more suitable for Kieran, making it easier for him to understand.
Quantitative change would lead to qualitative change!
It was something that would never change.
Therefore, Kieran wouldn't mind having more helpers in his camp.
Of course, there must be a limit.
"My lord."
Du and General White, who had quietly returned, bowed at Kieran.
The two trustworthy monsters were the kind of helpers Kieran was happy to have.
"Du, I need you to do something."
Kieran looked at the former General White.
"My lord, please give me your orders.
As long as I'm not guarding the door, I'm willing to do anything. "
Du said honestly.
It had been guarding the door for a hundred years, it was tired of standing in front of the door without moving, looking at the same scenery. It wanted to move around and see different sceneries.
"I need you to travel around the world as fast as you can.
First, collect information.
Second, gather manpower. "
Kieran ordered.
Kieran had some understanding of the dungeon world, but it wasn't deep enough. He needed a helper who could help him uncover more secrets.
If he could get more helpers, it would be great.
What else could be more suitable than the White Anomaly of the past?
General White wasn't just strong, it had a restless heart as well.
"My pleasure!"
The once white monster bowed again. There was an irrepressible joy on its face.
"Du will tell you about the rules of this world.
Then, go to the restaurant to get your travel fee and tell Li Jiajia that I'm training here. If anyone asks, just tell them. "
"And …"
"I wish you a pleasant journey, Miss."
Kieran said.
"I'll complete your mission perfectly, my lord."
General White said in a serious tone.
Kieran nodded with a smile, pushed open the door to the treasure room and walked in.
The door slowly closed.
Du's reminder to Du sounded behind him.
It was pertinent.
With [Seodi Stone], Kieran wasn't worried.
Then, he looked at his spoils of war.
It wasn't the first time Kieran checked his spoils of war.
However, he felt a sense of 'happiness' every time he went through a checkup.
It was like eating Starbeck's food.
Everything was so … perfect!
Like a king, Kieran strode through the treasure room, his eyes glancing over the equipment and items one by one.
A total of 273 pieces of equipment!
The appearance of each item was imprinted in his mind.
The weight was engraved in his mind.
The touch was fresh in his mind.
He could even remember the smell.
Kieran didn't want to be like this either.
But he couldn't help but remember them.
What else could he do?
He was helpless as well.
His body's instinct couldn't be suppressed.
Rather than blocking it, he might as well let it out.
So, he cleaned the equipment and items again.
He wiped them one by one, meticulously and meticulously.
After that, he continued down the treasure room.
Du had followed Kieran's order and opened up a bigger secret room, similar to the space in his memory.
Although the appearance of the core of the [Philosopher's Stone] provided him with a better solution, his personality had determined that he would always choose the safest way to deal with it.
Looking at the chains hanging around the room and the door in mid-air, Kieran took a deep breath and started his first practice.
He practiced how to break all the chains while dodging invisible attacks!
…
"Where's Royan?"
Song Shi went into the restaurant and realized Kieran wasn't around, so she sized up the place curiously.
"Boss is in the basement, training."
Li Jiajia said honestly.
She didn't leak Kieran's whereabouts on her own, it was Kieran's follower who told her to tell those who might ask about his whereabouts where he went.
Li Jiajia didn't know why Kieran would do that.
It didn't match the Kieran she knew, but Li Jiajia didn't think too much about it, all she knew was to follow orders.
As for the rest?
She believed her boss would handle it.
If not, there was still her teacher.
In Li Jiajia's heart, her teacher would always be the strongest.
Royan, who stood at the peak of cooking, was invincible in the world?
Em.
He was invincible.
She didn't think anyone could resist her teacher's cooking.
Song Shi was the eldest daughter of Song Shi Family.
She was asking about Royan but her eyes were looking at the kitchen.
"Why isn't Royan out?"
Song Shi asked despite knowing the answer.
"What do you think?"
Li Jiajia replied in an upset tone.
If there were no customers, she could have stayed in the kitchen and learned how to cook from her teacher, instead of greeting people here.
"I guess he is cooking.
I want 10 servings! "
Song Shi smiled in an idiotic manner, wiping her saliva as she laughed.
Li Jiajia's eyes were filled with even more admiration when she saw the young lady of Song Shi Family behaving like this.
It was natural that it wasn't for Song Shi.
It was for her teacher!
A slave under her teacher's kitchen knife!
Li Jiajia commented.
She then followed her teacher's order and tidied up the counter. Even though the counter was clean enough, Li Jiajia didn't mind making it cleaner.
Ding Dong!
The door of the restaurant was pushed open again.
Amy walked in with the newest bag of the season.
"My partner is back?"
Amy asked.
"He's back, training in the basement."
Li Jiajia repeated.
"What a boring fella, what did Royan prepare?"
Amy grumbled and shifted the topic.
"Mutton soup and biscuits."
Li Jiajia said.
"Give me one."
Amy looked at Song Shi and furrowed her brows.
She looked like a fox.
Nice clothes … Huh? Wasn't this the new design that came out yesterday?
Even the shoes.
That lipstick, was it Amida's 999?
Damn it!
Who the hell was she? How did she get it so fast?
Amy commented.
Hostility rose in her heart uncontrollably.
Song Shi unconsciously straightened her body when Amy sized her up.
She glanced at Amy from the corner of her eyes.
Her makeup was exquisite.
Her face was average.
Her clothes were average too, from last season.
So were her shoes.
Huh?!
'This bag, is it the new design that came out recently?
'I forgot to carry it!
I'm too careless! '
Song Shi muttered in her heart.
Sparks of fire appeared between the two women.
Li Jiajia looked at the two women who were staring at each other with hostility in confusion.
'What's wrong with them?
Are they sick? '
As a woman, Li Jiajia couldn't understand what was going on. To her, if she had the time, she should spend it on her cooking.
Ding Dong!
The door rang again.
The short and scrawny Chief Teddy walked in while scratching his curly hair.
"Where's Boss Royan?"
Chief Teddy asked, his eyes subtly glancing over Song Shi.
The grudge between them …
It wasn't exactly a grudge.
But it wasn't a favor either.
It was very complicated, so Teddy decided to put it aside for now.
"Boss is in the training room, do you want to see him?"
Li Jiajia asked.
"No, it's okay."
What's there to eat? "
Chief Teddy waved his hand and sat in the corner with a dry smile.
He was here to eat, not to see Kieran.
He was just being courteous.
Li Jiajia couldn't help but roll a white eye at Chief Teddy's reaction.
She was attracted by her teacher's cooking, yet now she had to ask whether the boss was in.
'What a bunch of hypocrites!'
Li Jiajia started to ponder her cooking skills again with such comments in her mind. However, before she could get into the mood, the doorbell rang again.
Ding Dong!
"Run!
"Run!"
The scary guy is here! "
The voice in her head sounded again.
Li Jiajia frowned.
Before she could stop the voice, she noticed Song Shi and Teddy were looking at the door with a serious expression.
'Could it be?'
Li Jiajia was stunned.
She wasn't an idiot, she knew something wasn't right.
However, before Li Jiajia could react, a stranger pushed the door open and entered.
The guest wasn't old, but his face was so handsome that it didn't look like he came from the mortal world. It was hard to tell if the guest was a man or a woman.
However, the guest was wearing a tattered windbreaker and pants.
His leather shoes were a little dirty.
On the other hand, the expression on the other party's face was a little uneasy.
However, his nose was sniffing the air non-stop.
The guest bowed in embarrassment and looked at Li Jiajia, "Sorry for disturbing you, can I have some food? Of course, I'll pay. "
The anxiety in Li Jiajia's heart was gone right away.
As long as she ate her teacher's food.
No matter how powerful the enemy was, it was nothing.
