Chapter 28: The Value of Monster Materials?
“What’s this…?”
The girl was stunned for a moment before she looked at the object in Lu Yu’s hand, exclaiming,
“The poison sac of a Twisted Spider! And it’s a complete one! The Twisted Spider is a monster transformed by followers of the Spider God, and each one has awakened power of level four or above. Only a few elite ones can produce poison sacs. Once captured, they go on a rampage, smashing their own poison sacs and contaminating their entire bodies.
Moreover, it requires skilled extraction techniques and special secret methods. Even a Morning Star-level expert cannot successfully extract the poison sac from these crazed monsters. So, the price of a Twisted Poison Sac is very high. Even an incomplete one costs over ten thousand Spirit Coins, and a complete one is even rarer. The last one that appeared was bought for a hundred thousand Spirit Coins…”
The girl with the cat mask recited the information as if she knew it by heart, her eyes burning with greed as she stared at Lu Yu, as if she had found a treasure.
Lu Yu was surprised that such a simple one-star material was worth so much. It was only now that he realized how incredible his ability to extract materials truly was.
He recalled that when he first extracted a material, he had already cleaved the Twisted Spider in half. Normally, the material would have been destroyed, and the subsequent spider monsters were drained into mummies, almost turning into dust. Yet, the system was still able to extract materials from them. Even without the ability to edit monsters, Lu Yu could still quickly amass wealth by extracting materials from corpses.
The system’s ability was truly powerful!
Lu Yu quietly praised the system in his heart before asking,
“Is this enough payment?”
Although the spider poison sac was precious, it didn’t seem like something worth keeping for him. He could always find an opportunity to raid a lair of the Spider God’s followers and get more.
Furthermore, if the followers of the Spider God could transform into spiders, the followers of other evil gods might also undergo mutations, leading to even more materials for him to collect.
So, Lu Yu planned to enjoy the feeling of being a rich man, at least for now.
“Are you really going to use this as payment?”
The girl’s mouth dropped open under her mask, surprised that someone who looked like a bandit was actually a wealthy person.
A complete Twisted Spider Poison Sac costs over a hundred thousand Spirit Coins! The fact that the other person was offering one as payment was like striking it rich, leaving her a bit dazed.
However, despite the huge temptation, the girl shook her head and said,
“That’s enough. Even selling ten thousand copies of my handwritten notes, or even some secret methods, would be sufficient. But this is too expensive. My notes aren’t worth this much. This is too valuable for me, so I must refuse. You only need to pay one Spirit Coin!”
I don’t even have one Spirit Coin, that’s why I’m using this as payment! Why is she so stubborn?
Lu Yu couldn’t help but complain in his heart, but he found himself admiring the girl a little more.
She was able to maintain her principles even in the face of such great wealth. That kind of willpower was truly beyond ordinary people.
Though she was a bit stubborn, in some ways, she was kind of cute.
Lu Yu casually tossed the poison sac to the girl and said,
“You’re interesting. Take it for now. I might have other conditions later.”
“Other conditions?”
The girl in the cat mask blushed, her voice lowering as she said,
“I only like people my age, and such matters can only be done with someone I like, so I can’t agree…”
“You’re thinking too much!”
Lu Yu decisively interrupted her vivid imagination. If she kept going, she might have started imagining some kind of romance!
He had realized that, other than when she was reading, the girl was actually a bit of a goof.
But the girl now understood that the strong person before her had no ulterior motives. He was just making a deal, and after thinking for a moment, she took out a card and handed it to him, saying,
“Since you’ve accepted the poison sac, these notes are yours. My name is Xu Xiaoqing, here’s my contact information. If you need any help in the future, I will definitely do my best!”
Lu Yu glanced at the card. It was handwritten, with neat characters listing contact information and an address. It was clear the girl had put effort into it.
Lu Yu, who was also looking for someone to help him understand the world of the awakened, lightly flicked his finger. Shadow energy formed a thread, rolled the card into his coat, and held it in his hand.
“Such precise control of power!”
The girl was stunned, about to speak when she suddenly heard a commotion.
Turning around, she saw a group of people without masks, striding towards them with a menacing aura.
What do you think?
