Chapter 178
In the black mist that filled the sky, it was difficult to see the way ahead. The green young man held an arm-long seedling knife and shuttled freely through the trees, swinging the knife from time to time to cut off the branches that blocked the road.
This is Lu Ze today.
In just three months, he already had the ability to kill in and out of the group of primary fallen ones at will.
"System, I think it's time to challenge the first-level fallen. Currently, I don't have any burden on the primary level." The energy in the body has been as thin as a gossamer in the beginning, and has been intermittent. Now, although it is still as thin as a gossamer, The hairspring is integrated, no longer intermittent, and there is no sense of stagnation when running in the body.
In short, he has nothing to fear when encountering low-level degenerates.
"Okay. But before that, you may still need to deal with some external situations." If Yuan Zhuan knew about the system's anthropomorphic dialogue state, he would be amazed. After all, her system was really mechanized in the early days.
"What?" Lu Ze was stunned and jumped down from the towering tree branch.
"Lu Ze?" A deep male voice came from under the tree in front.
"Who are you?" Lu Ze held the thunderstorm talisman in his hand, his eyes like sharp knives, and he stared at the person coming.
Xu Zhou saw the young man descending from the sky with a white blade in his hand, and the fierceness coming from behind made him stop scorning him.
The childish face came into view, and Xu Zhou raised his thick eyebrows. Unexpectedly, he was really a little baby, about the same age as his daughter.
"Are you Lu Ze?" Xu Zhou spoke again. The four tall men around him looked over at the same time. That tall and strong body was full of murderous aura. He was obviously a strong man who wandered in the territory of high-level fallen people all year round.
Judging from the temperament of the five people and the fact that the leading man opened his mouth to call out his name, Lu Ze's first reaction was that Xu Cai's relatives, and then looking at the black iron plaques hanging on their waists, the hunter's teeth and claws were showing. 'The word, I completely understood it in my heart.
Xu Cai's purchase of candy was discovered.
He is actually a relative of Xu Cai, so he is naturally not a villain, otherwise there would be no pure Xu Cai. "I am Lu Ze, are you a relative of Xu Cai?"
Xu Zhou had no expression on his face, "How can you have the guts to do business with people from Hunter City?! Aren't you afraid of being eaten alive?!!" As he spoke, he raised his right hand with the palm facing up. In the palm of his hand, which was as big as a cattail leaf fan, a ball of water rose up. A cluster of flames glowed with murderous intent.
Fire powerhouse! !
Lu Ze's pupils reflected the miniature of the flames, but there was no fear or shock. He continued without being humble or arrogant, "I have goods, I'm looking for buyers, buy them one by one, do you still need courage?"
"What a crazy boy!!" The bearded man behind Xu Zhou sneered coldly, and was about to step forward, but Xu Zhou reached out to stop him, "Lu Ze, do you know what will happen if you provoke our Hunter City? It's not just expulsion. ”
"In this apocalyptic world, the fittest survive. Although I am weak, I can support myself and I have no intention of harming others. How can I cause provocation? I just met Xu Cai by chance and knew that Hunter City was short of supplies. After many subsequent transactions, if the purpose of your uncles' visit is to prevent the children of Hunter City from contacting people from the outside world, I will just not go there in the future. The Black Mist Forest is so big, and I have not yet visited other locations. If you break through, you might be able to meet other individuals in need of supplies, right? Do you consider this black mist forest to be part of the Hunter City?"
"Hey, boy, you are very articulate!" The man who just spoke no longer had the attitude of wanting to hit someone, and the pretentious annoyance on his face also disappeared, "Do you still have that candy? Show it to us. And those spicy strips too.”
Xu Zhou didn't say anything, but calmed down some of his momentum and allowed the people around him to step forward.
Yes, they came here this time, firstly, to take a look at the child, to gauge his personality and the purpose of coming here, and secondly, to see the goods. They had already tested the candies Xiaocai brought back, and found that there were no toxins in them. It contains many beneficial elements that are good for the human body, and are also some elements that their children generally lack, so they come here for this.
Having said that, I thought Lu Ze would be happy to take out the goods and trade them immediately. Little did he know that this kid didn't move at all, and even had a cold expression on his face. He looked defensive and clenched the white blade in his hand. Obviously, he was treating them as a robbery. Yes.
Xu Zhou:......
The big man who spoke:...
"We use crystal cores in exchange. Isn't it 25 candies for each first-order crystal core? We have brought many crystal cores. We will exchange as many as you have." First-order crystal cores are of little use to them and are only for low-level people. The ability user absorbs it, and the effect is average, but there are a lot of impurities. After jumping a level, you still need to find a way to remove the impurities, otherwise it will affect the subsequent promotion; therefore, no one will absorb the first level unless they are from a very poor family. The crystal core, the only function of the first-order crystal core, for the strong, is to get the New Territories exchange points in exchange for some ordinary materials, and the purchasing power is extremely low.
Ten to one for a piece of candy, this is the price in Hunter City. But here in Lu Ze, the terms "good quality and low price" used to describe transactions are not very appropriate. This is simply nectar from heaven, making a lot of money.
"That was the price before. Now it's one for five." Lu Ze said loudly, not seeing anything wrong with raising the price from the ground up.
Xu Zhou:......
Everyone else looked at Lu Ze unkindly.
"Aren't you afraid of us robbing you?" The bearded man next to Xu Zhou had a fierce look in his eyes.
"You can try it and see which one is more powerful, the bomb in my hand or your superpowers." The young boy also showed his fangs and raised the black ball in his hand, with dough inside, which he got from Yuan Zhuan's hand. of thunderstorm talisman.
The outer shell is the packaging he uses to prove his identity for the Thunderstorm Talisman, so as not to have any deterrent effect.
"You!" Xu Zhou glanced at the black ball in the young man's hand. Although he was not sure that it was a bomb, the young man dared to say that, so he must be inseparable. Of course, they weren't planning on grabbing it.
"Change, you go get the goods." Xu Zhou said coldly.
"You haven't seen a space folding machine, have you? It's a new one from the New Territories. You can carry it with you everywhere." As he said that, the young man raised his hand proudly, and a bag of colorful candies appeared out of thin air in his hand. They were all packed in net bags. There were at least a few of them. thousand.
When all the big men looked at it, their pupils trembled violently!
The legendary New Realm artifact, the Space Folder, is a super-grade artifact that can only be made by high-level space users. The market price is more than 1,500 for a fifth-order crystal core, and the space is more than ten cubic meters. The whole thing is sold It was just a store-saving artifact, and it made the manager of the exchange point so arrogant, as if the magical item was his own.
Who is this young man? Why is there such a divine thing as a space folder?
Lu Ze clearly felt that the other party's attitude had changed, and his heart tightened.
Exposing the so-called 'Space Folder' was also his sudden idea. If it doesn't work, it will be successful. In the future, he will ask them to exchange for crystal cores, so he doesn't have to act like a show to get his own supplies. Firstly, it is inconvenient. Secondly, it is inconvenient. It's easy to get rid of the gang; but if the other party really wants to steal it, he will use the Thunderstorm Talisman to blow them all up. My sister said that she can control the Thunderstorm Talisman, and the Thunderstorm Talisman can kill the fallen. The basic sweep can make a big piece of them. , he still doesn’t believe it, these strong men can’t be killed by explosions.
It has to be said that the saying that children of poor people will become rich early is a result of life.
At a young age, Lu Ze, due to circumstances, had a problem in his heart unknowingly.
"Okay, where are the spicy strips? Or do you have anything else? If the stuff is good, the crystal cores will be easy to talk about." Xu Zhou and other men took the animal skin bags they were carrying, which were filled with first-order crystal cores. .
With the other party's attitude and sincerity, Lu Ze also felt good. He took out spicy sticks and other snacks, each one pound each, as well as a small amount of vegetables and apples.
Everyone was stunned:...
My mouth is watering...
Xu Zhou slapped the bearded man next to him on the back. The latter quickly sucked and wiped his mouth. The black skin was red, which was hidden under the beard and could not be seen.
"There are vegetables and apples." Xu Zhou's voice was dull. God knows, he has never eaten an apple peel in his whole life. No one in their hunter city has awakened the wood element and the space element. Otherwise, , they will not be deficient in elements. Every time they need to go to the wild to find some uncontaminated wild vegetables, but the quantity is small and not enough to fill the gaps between teeth. Many children have vision problems. When they grow up, they will suffer from night blindness. You cannot go out at night, and some children cannot even grow up normally due to lack of elements. This is why it is very difficult to give birth to children in Hunter City.
Nowadays, these things look fresh and refreshing at first sight, and the tangy fragrance of green vegetables and apples makes his mouth almost water. If he didn't have very good self-control, he must have lost his temper just now.
If these could be purchased in large quantities, wouldn’t their children die so many in the future?
Xu Zhou was thinking this, and so were the others. Some even had tears in their eyes, looking at Lu Ze as if they had seen a savior.
Lu Ze was secretly sweating, what's going on? Wasn't he still cold and fierce just now, but suddenly he became a weak person who cried and whined?
When their eyes fell on vegetables and fruits, Lu Ze also understood. Seeds of vegetables and fruits do not exist in the Fallen Land because they are not allowed in the New Territories. The sales outlets only have expensive finished products that they cannot afford. The seeds left behind by the finished fruits will not germinate.
It seems that the same is true for Hunter City.
"Except for the crystal core, you can also trade ore with me, this is it." Lu Ze took out a thumb-sized gem that had been systematically identified and handed it over to them for identification.
This exchange was a win-win situation, and everyone got what they wanted.
In addition to more than 3,000 first-order crystal nuclei, there are also more than ten cut gemstones, which the hunters dug out of their weapons.
"Then, in three days, you prepare the goods and we will wait for you outside the Black Mist Forest."
"it is good."
This time, they directly ordered a batch of goods, snacks, and all edible vegetables and fruits from Lu Ze. They paid for as much as they could get. They originally wanted to go to Hunter City to trade, but Lu Ze refused.
Now, even if he had someone to rely on, he would not dare to go in alone. If someone had evil intentions, he would be unable to guard against it and would be hard to defeat with both fists.
Therefore, it is better to be outside, where it is open and easy to defend.
With the crystal core, Lu Ze upgraded the system to two levels in a row. However, the upgraded system requires two first-level crystal cores every day to maintain.
Upgraded to level 2, with one hundred first-level crystal cores, opened the system mall, and the product name appeared in it. Level , there are only three types that can be exchanged, and they all increase physical strength and attack power. A book for physical fitness. Kung Fu, a body-lighting technique, and a knife technique.
Lu Ze: Did you agree to eat it?
The system was embarrassed and didn't say anything. It didn't know why it didn't have anything to eat.
Lu Ze: How about going to another level?
One thousand first-order crystal cores are deducted again.
success.
This time, another redemption item was opened, and it turned out to be elixirs: body-building elixir, collateral-unblocking elixir, and energy-boosting elixir.
Lu Ze: Pfft...
This time it was food, but it was all elixirs! ! Pills can’t fill your stomach!
He's still going to be hungry!
As for upgrading, it actually requires a thousand second-order crystal cores! Cruel enough!
While Lu Ze was waiting for Yuan Zhuan to come online, he recounted everything that happened today, "Sister, I'll exchange all these gems for you. It's useless for me to keep them."
"System, why can he get my supplies and I can only exchange them for gold coins? This is not fair!" This is the countless time Yuan Zhuan has questioned.
Why?
Although they are all dependent on each other, is it too unfair to her? What are her gold coins exchanged for, daily necessities, and what are they used for? She doesn't want to make a fortune relying on those machines, they are like useless.
"Gather ten ghost tears, or gather 100,000 gold coins, and you can upgrade to level three. At that time, you can exchange supplies with Lu Ze. Only supplies in their system, not supplies in the real world."
"It's an insidious system, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Yuan Zhuan bared his teeth!!! Although there are restrictions, they are better than nothing.
There are such great benefits, but she didn’t even tell her! ! So angry! However, Zhang Xiaoxiao doesn't seem to have a system mall, so only Lu Ze can redeem it.
"It's not that you don't want me, you don't like it either if I talk too much."
Yuan Zhuan: Where does the resentful woman’s aura come from?
If you can exchange supplies with the other side, the system seems to be very powerful.
She currently only has three ghost tears and more than 7 gold coins, which is not enough.
In the park, Yuan's Supermarket's inventory of 30 tons of cabbage and thousands of kilograms of snacks were all cleared and transferred to the park's warehouse. The purchasing department could only urgently mobilize new goods to fill the vacancies.
Yuan Zhuan flew directly back to Beiyu and asked the driver to return him to the park.
After all the warehouses were emptied and transferred to another time and space, Yuan Zhuan looked at the system balance that had increased by more than a thousand gold coins, and his face turned dark.
So many gems are becoming increasingly worthless.
But Lu Ze had no gold to exchange for.
Thinking of the gold in the system's backpack, Yuan Zhuan shook his head and exchanged it for the system. It was such a loss. In the post-modern era, it was worth a lot of money.
-
The second plane.
Lu Ze was not prepared to hide his super supply ability and emptied almost all the supplies in his backpack.
So, when Xu Zhou arrived with his tribesmen in a cart, what they saw was mountains of cabbage and snacks.
hiss……
The dozens of tribesmen who came this time saw such a 'spectacular' scene for the first time. They gasped in despair, and their mouths were wet all over the floor.
"My great-aunt, am I in a dream? Isn't that the cabbage in the picture in the book?" A tribesman was about to rub his eyes.
"Oh my god, that one seems to be all eaten, hiss...suck...cabbage, cabbage..."
Some people were so emotional that they started wiping tears.
Vegetables, this is a vegetable, the legendary Chinese cabbage, this is the first time they have seen it in all these years, woo woo...
Xu Zhou looked at Lu Ze who was standing calmly with an inexplicable expression, and was extremely shocked.
There are endless vegetables in the New Territories, but they are never prepared to supply them in large quantities to the poor people in the Fallen Land. Even the people in Hunter City, in the eyes of the New Territories, are the same poor people, poor people with super powers.
Therefore, even if they usually exchange some vegetables, the portions are not large. A family can exchange for one cabbage a day, depending on the mood of the salesperson at the exchange point.
This mountain of vegetables is really like a dream, so unreal.
This Lu Ze, whom he hadn't seen for three days, seemed to have something more to him. Even the exchange point didn't have such a strong ability to exchange materials.
Who is he? How close is the relationship with the New Territories? Or is he from the New Territories?
Or is he a plant-type superpower himself?
No, no, he didn't sense the aura of the wood element, and the latter should be ruled out.
He has been exchanging crystal cores and ores with them. The crystal cores are all first- and second-level. For higher-level ones, he has not even mentioned that he wants to exchange them. This is a bit weird.
Those in the New Territories have always only absorbed fourth- and fifth-order crystal nuclei. How could they possibly see first- and second-order crystal nuclei? Therefore, he does not have a New Territories identity.
No matter how he thought about it, Xu Zhou couldn't figure out what Lu Ze's background was.
