Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 681: Chapter 75: Black Merchant

Vini has a temporary contract on this batch of Paradise coins, so there’s no chance of default. Otherwise, Vini wouldn’t even bother to send a debt-collecting email. Verbal agreements simply don’t exist between Contractors, as this Reincarnation Paradise is filled with slaughter and survival of the fittest; verbal agreements have no place here.

The pricing at Su Xiao’s stall is quite fair, so after half an hour, only two items remain on display.

[Super Destruction Fist (Dark Purple Skill Scroll)]

Price: 300,000 Paradise coins.

[Bian Family Dagger (Gold)]

Auction starting price: 365,300 Paradise coins.

The price of the Bian Family Dagger continues to rise, increasing by about ten thousand Paradise coins every minute.

After discovering that most of the items had sold out, Su Xiao began to check the remaining amount of Paradise coins.

Apart from the ’Super Destruction Fist’ and ’Bian Family Dagger,’ the items at the stall sold for a total of 216,800 Paradise coins, along with the 49,406 Paradise coins in Su Xiao’s Reincarnation Brand, totaling 266,206 points.

After repaying the 100,000 Paradise coins owed to Vini, Su Xiao still has 166,206 Paradise coins left.

160,000 Paradise coins is not a small amount, and besides, the two most valuable items at his stall have not yet been sold.

Su Xiao was ’surrounded’ for an hour, but due to the market mechanism, if any Contractor stays in front of a stall for a long time without purchasing anything, they will be forcibly teleported away. So, the Contractors around Su Xiao kept changing.

Most of the Contractors came to admire the attributes of the Gold Quality Dagger. After feasting their eyes, they left, so after three full hours, the number of Contractors gathered around Su Xiao’s stall had noticeably decreased.

Su Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, then removed his headphones and put away his tablet.

Looking around, dozens of impatient-looking Contractors remained.

”Thank you all for waiting.”

When they noticed Su Xiao speaking, the surrounding Contractors stepped forward.

”The highest I’ll offer for the Destruction Fist is 150,000 Paradise coins...”

”Our leader wants to discuss the Gold Dagger with you...”

”I’ll pay 400,000 Paradise coins for the Gold Dagger, that’s the highest I can go.”

As expected, it becomes very noisy when dozens of people talk at once.

After identifying the interested Contractors from the group, Su Xiao got up and left the stall, leaving the surrounding Contractors somewhat dumbfounded.

Su Xiao found a quiet café and ordered a fruit drink; he didn’t like the bitter and burnt taste of coffee. He came here simply for the pleasant environment.

After sitting in the café for a few minutes, Su Xiao returned to the stall in the trading market.

As expected, there were only a dozen people left in front of the stall, and even if some Contractors passed by, they were only momentarily attracted by the Gold Dagger before leaving.

Su Xiao sat behind the stall under the helpless gaze of those dozen people, who exchanged glances with each other.

”You ask first.”

”You first, you first.”

These dozen people appeared to have chatted while waiting, and now they were being ’courteous’ to each other.

”Tch, just say you want someone else to be the ’guinea pig,’ I’ll go first.”

A burly man with rolled-up sleeves stepped forward, and the moment Su Xiao saw him, he judged that the man was a psychic user. Having battled with the travel group across a Derivative world, this was easy to discern.

The characteristic of Nen ability is related to personality; straightforward individuals are generally Enhancers, while fickle people are generally Transmuters, etc.

Clearly, there’s an 80% chance this muscular man is an Enhancer.

”What are you looking at? I’m an Enhancer.”

Su Xiao raised an eyebrow. This muscular man looked rough but wasn’t actually a fool. A straightforward personality doesn’t equate to stupidity, as foolish people often harbor many unrealistic fantasies.

”300,000, no negotiation.”

Su Xiao didn’t need to ask to know what the other party wanted to buy; it must be the Destruction Fist. Considering the man’s height of over two and a half meters, a Gold Dagger in his hand would be a mere toy dagger.

”Why no negotiation? Whether you sell it or not is your concern; whether I negotiate is mine.”

The muscular man picked up the dark purple scroll from the stall and, after thinking for a moment, said, ”This thing has great power and doesn’t consume much, but...”

The muscular man’s tone shifted, his gaze locking onto Su Xiao.

”Using this ability requires two seconds of charging, and those two seconds could be the difference between life and death. Don’t even mention two seconds—even within my skill set, any ability that takes over 0.5 seconds to charge, I abandon.”

The muscular man was not demeaning the scroll; he had a point. The Super Destruction Fist’s two-second charge time is its main weakness. In intense battles, not just two seconds—even fractions of a second can be fatal.

Su Xiao shook his head. Although what the man said seemed reasonable, it wasn’t entirely accurate.

”You’ve got a point, but the skill scroll’s introduction displays the effects at LV.1. Raising the Destruction Fist level could very well reduce charge time. With a dark purple scroll, leveling to 30 shouldn’t be a problem, roughly three reward chances, and with some luck, charge time might become very short.”

Su Xiao’s words made the nearby Contractors nod repeatedly, and the muscular man flashed a grin.

”You’re discerning, brother; that’s why I’m willing to gamble on this scroll.”

The muscular man seemed quite fond of the Super Destruction Fist ability. With his cricket-sized fists and potent Nen ability, enhancing the Super Destruction Fist in Reincarnation Paradise would make his fists even stronger than Wokim’s.

”290,000, that’s my final offer.”

The muscular man fell silent, and Su Xiao nodded. 290,000 was a very sincere offer. But as he was about to transact with the muscular man, a hooded figure quickly approached.

Seeing the hooded figure, Su Xiao raised an eyebrow. The Destruction Fist could no longer be sold; it must be reserved as a ’troublemaker’!

”If I trade with you, I don’t accept Paradise coins.”

”Of course, it was initially agreed to be a barter, and by the way, I apologize for being an hour late.”

The man in black chuckled a few times through the hood. When he lifted his head, everyone noticed a black mask covering his face. On the mask was a skull with crossed bones below, resembling a pirate flag.

”From the Black Sail Merchant Group?”

The muscular man in front of the stall looked displeased. Evidently, he didn’t like these Black Merchants who conducted shady deals in derivative worlds.

”I am Black Merchant 24K, Mister Bai Ye. Nice to meet you. Please accept this as a belated gift.”

The Black Merchant handed over a card, a means to contact the Black Room Merchant Union, specifically to contact Black Merchant 24K.

There were many Black Merchants within the Black Sail Merchant Group; their clothing, height, and voice were very similar—the only difference being this card.

”Did you get what I wanted?”

”Got it.”

Three knives appeared in the Black Merchant’s hands, and upon seeing their quality, the surrounded Contractors gasped. Three dark purple quality knives—such a sight was rare.

”Excellent.”

Su Xiao closed down his stall. If he could come to an agreement with the Black Merchant, setting up a stall was unnecessary. Trading with Black Merchants could skip a whole process.

If Su Xiao successfully sold the ’Super Destruction Fist’ and ’Gold Dagger’ in the trading market, he would only acquire a substantial amount of Paradise coins, with little chance of bartering with Contractors.

After acquiring Paradise coins, Su Xiao would need to scour the world to purchase the items he needed.

But trading with the Black Sail Merchant Group eliminated this step, allowing him to directly obtain the necessary items. A merchant group’s material reserve was unmatched by a Lone Ranger like Su Xiao.

Furthermore, the Black Sail Merchant Group was specifically in the business of trading. Their supply reserves even surpassed those of large adventure teams.
