Chapter 513: Chapter 511 Proving My Judgment Is Correct
“That room,” Qianqixiya pointed to the master bedroom where Sally was staying.
Yang Suomi cast the assassin’s skill, stealth assassination.
But as he just approached the bedroom door, he was blocked by something, and a dark, ghostly light flashed by quickly. Yang Suomi turned into data and vanished!
Wawat and Qianqixiya froze on the spot.
At that moment, the sound of the elevator reaching the floor rang out.
The two quickly came to their senses, picked up the items dropped by Yang Suomi, and hurried to the room across the hall.
They had barely closed the door behind them when the cleaning staff arrived.
Seeing that Sally’s room door was open, they knocked and asked if she needed cleaning.
The controlled worker finally came to their senses but had no memory of what had happened. Why were they even here?
Seeing the cleaner, they hurriedly said, “Sister Wang, come in and sweep the floor.”
A scroll was also dropped on the ground, which they casually picked up and placed on the coffee table in the living room.
…
Welly came back.
Seeing a ‘Cleaned’ sign on the door, he pushed it open and went in.
He first went to the doorway of the master bedroom and lifted the restriction.
Then he quietly opened the door.
Sally was lying on the bed, eating ‘Sugar Beans’ and browsing the gaming forum.
When she looked at him, her eyebrows raised slightly, and she cooed in a twee nasal voice, “— Goodbye, the brother I fell in love with at first sight!”
Welly was speechless.
Sally was also creeped out by her own voice, finally collapsing onto the bed in laughter, “Qianqixiya seems to like you quite a bit.”
Welly picked up the ‘Sugar Beans’ that had fallen onto the bed and tidied the messy bedding, “What’s that got to do with me?”
“It proves my judgment is not wrong.”
“…”
Sally got up nimbly and then reached out to him, “I just saw the Holy Grail Card rankings updated; we’re now 4th with a valid count of 40.”
Welly handed her the Holy Grail Card collection book, “They were all bought.”
“Yeah, I know.” Sally blinked.
Only, on the leaderboard, the Singles Dog Guild, which had been ranked 10th, was gone and replaced by the Splendid and Magnificent Guild, with a total of 30 Holy Grail Card Fragments and 4 valid Fragment Cards.
Opening the Holy Grail Card collection book, there were some new Common Fragment Cards inside, “Why are they all Common Grade.”
Welly explained, “There are 120 Fragments in a full set of Holy Grail Cards, 99 of which are Common, and we need every single one.”
“Why do they have so many, but so few valid ones?”
“Aside from the highly duplicated Common Cards, Copy Cards are also easy to buy. They’ve duplicated many of their cards, especially the Common ones, to trade with.”
“Then should we also make some copies?” Sally suggested, “Maybe just by trading the copies, we could complete quite a few more.”
“Hmm, I’ll go buy a Copy Card from the item mall.”
…
At the Beast Emperor Capital, Suji Bookstore.
Little Fengning came back with Xiaohao.
Seeing Moru staring blankly at the empty bookshelves, they asked, “Where’s my dad? And the books?”
Moru replied with a wicked charm, “Your dad hasn’t returned, and the books sold out a long time ago. Even those old books from years ago were bought up. I was thinking, maybe we could stock something else to sell. Young Master, what do you think we should sell?”
“Big brother, what do you think?” Little Fengning turned and tossed the question to Xiaohao.
Xiaohao thoughtfully replied, “You could go to the North-South Commerce Association and ask Uncle Ming. He’s sure to know what sells well.”
Little Fengning said to Moru, “You go ask at the North-South Commerce Association.”
After speaking, she turned around and ran off again with Xiaohao.
“Young Master, Xiaohao, be careful on the road—” Moru waved her hand, then yawned. She was definitely too lazy to go to the North-South Commerce Association, so why not just close the shop for the day?
At that moment, a tall figure entered the shop.
Moru was stunned, “His Majesty the Southern Emperor?”
“I am not him.” Rong Wu took out an ancient book from his bosom, “Will you take this?”
“Oh, I think we do have that service.” Moru took the book, her eyes still surreptitiously sizing up Rong Wu.
At first glance, he looked like Rong Ruo of the Southern District, but there were clear differences in the brows and eyes. That kind of wanton and unruly pride, like a sword unsheathed, revealed a sharp edge. Moreover, his whole body exuded a cold aloofness that kept people at a distance.
“What is your relation to the Southern Emperor?”
“What does it have to do with you?” Rong Wu frowned, “Where is Boss Wen?”
“He… has been gone for almost two months now.” Moru initially just agreed to watch over the bookstore for a few days, but hadn’t expected it to be this long; it even delayed her own important business of going to the Southern District to find the Southern Emperor.
“Dead?” Rong Wu was somewhat surprised, that man seemed quite healthy, “Was there an accident?”
“Dead?” Moru was startled, then burst out laughing on the counter, “Gone… Dead… Hahaha…”
“What’s so funny?” Rong Wu frowned. His own boss had died, yet he could laugh so heartily; he wasn’t exactly a good person, “This book is similar to the last one I sold, hurry up.”
“Oh.” Moru casually flipped through the book, “500 Superior Crystal Coins.”
“Deal.” Rong Wu immediately agreed.
“Hm?” Did he overprice it? Moru pondered, looking at him thoughtfully.
Rong Wu drew out his empty Storage Bag, waiting to be filled with Superior Crystal Coins.
Let it be. Moru opened the Different Space, took out a bag of Superior Crystal Coins from inside, and threw it to Rong Wu, “This is a thousand Superior Crystal Coins. You tell me your relation to the Southern Emperor, and the remaining 500 are also yours.”
Rong Wu hadn’t expected such a good deal.
Their relationship, in fact, wasn’t much of a secret to those who knew him and Rong Ruo.
“Since you know he is the Beast Emperor of the Southern District, you should also be clear about his Beast Body.”
“Yes, the Deep Sea Blue Shark.”
“The Deep Sea Blue Shark has a Dual-Beast Body of water and land. I am the land-based part.”
“So you and he are like twin brothers?”
“You could say that.” Rong Wu took the bag of coins, “Thanks.”
He turned and left.
Moru watched Rong Wu’s retreating figure, suddenly squinting his eyes, the bottom of his eyes brimming with interest…
“Interesting.”
…
Augustus’ Tomb.
Sally, having donned her Divine Armor, saw Welly open a scroll and look at it, and asked, “What’s that?”
“It’s a task from the Ice Wolf Justice Guild—the White Cage.”
“The White Cage?”
“There’s a theory on the forum now that the only World Card is in the White Cage.”
“It was clearly in the Doomsday Black Tower.” Xiaomei’s setting, but whether the Main System had changed it or not was unknown.
“However, the White Cage is not easy to tackle either. Your son died there twice.”
“…Don’t say it like that.” Welly patted Sally, who wore the Divine Helmet, on the head, “It makes me want to break the White Cage right now.”
“Ah, feeling competitive!” Sally laughed. It was she who had been doing the fighting all the way while he just strolled behind.
“Your son died 18 times in the Doomsday Black Tower.” Sally continued to provoke Welly.
Welly: “…How could he be so weak!”
Sally replied, “No! It’s definitely not that your son is weak, it’s that Xiaomei set the parameters too high, far beyond the normal level of beating. It seems she didn’t intend for anyone to clear it at all. Aside from your son, none of the other kids could make it through the Apocalyptic Ruins.”
