Chapter 216 Panic buying and conflict
Bang bang bang bang...
Woohoo!
The train was moving, and thick smoke spewed out from the front chimney.
In a luxurious carriage near the front, Chen Lun was sitting and dining. There were exquisite food and iced juice in front of him.
He was the only one in the entire carriage.
At this time, the carriage door was knocked, and the voice of Polaris came from over there:
"Mr. Jack, it's me, Polaris."
"Please come in."
Polaris opened the door, and the entire carriage over there was filled with players. It was noisy, and it was obvious that they had surrounded them.
The carriage door closed and the noisy sound disappeared.
Polaris stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
"Sit down."
Chen Lun pointed casually.
Polaris sat in front of him obediently, looking a little uneasy.
He took the initiative to shout a few times before setting off, and he didn't know if Mr. Jack would be angry about it. Fortunately, there was no reminder to lower his favorability level, which made him feel a little more at ease.
Chen Lun took out a bottle of ordinary extraordinary wine, poured a glass for Polaris, and then signaled.
"Thank you."
Polaris drank it in one gulp and gained the corresponding gain.
He was secretly happy. It seemed that Mr. Jack was not dissatisfied. The welfare of his "student" had not disappeared yet... Or maybe he had actually done a good job?
Chen Lun silently looked at Polaris. The opponent was now level 22 and was far away from other players. Among the current ten high-level players, he has the highest level and the strongest strength.
"Polaris, it seems that you haven't slacked off during this period of time... You have made rapid progress and are already in the stronger category among [Sequence 9] Transcendents. Compared with other undead, you are already at the top of the list. in front of them.”
Chen Lun praised.
Polaris was happy, but waved her hand modestly.
"It's because of Mr. Jack's teaching that I can stand out."
He meant what he said, and it was indeed because of hugging Jack's thigh that he was as strong as he is today.
This had a huge impact on him.
In reality, Polaris has saved enough money to replace his grandma with mechanical prostheses, and is preparing to move his only relative out of the low-rent house and live in an apartment area with a better environment.
He even thought about making more money in the future so that he and his grandma could live in a prosperous city like Huanlan City and enjoy life like the rich people in the upper class.
All of this is inseparable from the NPC in front of me.
It can be said that Mr. Jack changed his life.
"Since you are my student, I will not begrudge you..."
Chen Lun said, put down the tableware in his hand, and took out a painting and a scroll.
"This is a reward for your diligence as a teacher, and it is also a little bit of concern."
Polaris took the two items curiously and his eyes widened immediately.
The oil painting in his hand is none other than Mr. Jack!
[Extraordinary thing-Jack's character oil paint (disposable consumable)]
Item description: A man depicted by a talented painter. He has the ultimate appearance, noble temperament and mysterious power.
This oil painting imitates its extraordinary power, but retains only a small part of its power.
[Supernatural Object-Snake's Hand (Magic Scroll)]
Item description: The scroll recording animal magic comes from a senior animal trainer who recorded his extraordinary power in the form of magic.
Hidden within the scroll is a giant white python capable of wreaking horrific havoc.
"Thank you, teacher!"
Polaris stood up suddenly, feeling excited.
He is very aware of the value of these two items and has no doubt about their power, because it comes from Jack's own power!
Even if they only contain one-tenth of Jack's power, they are still very powerful props, and they are definitely not something that can be bought with money! Except for him, no player at this stage can obtain this "big killer" and can completely use it as his own trump card!
"Sit down."
Chen Lun smiled faintly, picked up the tableware again, inserted a piece of juicy bacon and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Yes, teacher."
Polaris sat down again and tried to calm down.
"You don't have to hide your identity too much from now on. You can proudly tell others that you are my disciple, Jack Spate."
Chen Lun said.
Polaris was startled for a moment, then nodded.
"I understand, teacher."
He sat quietly for a while, and then made a request to exchange items. During this period, Polaris had saved a lot of gold pounds and contribution points. He decided to change his equipment and sharpen his sword to keep up with the woodchopping.
Only by investing in yourself reasonably can you get better results. This is a truth that I understand deeply as a veteran player. If you save money blindly, you will lose more opportunities.
Chen Lun did not refuse and secretly opened the interactive panel.
Polaris picked and selected, and finally purchased two bombs, one red and one blue, and replenished some potions, ammunition and fuel. While the contribution was exhausted, it also spent dozens of gold pounds.
"Please let the nine official members, Dongyang, Chenxi, Noutoujin and Wangwuwuji, come in and tell them that my meal is over and they can start exchanging items."
Chen Lun chuckled when he saw Polaris returning home with a full load.
Polaris responded respectfully, then saluted again, picked up his backpack, and turned to leave.
After a while.
Dongyang and the others filed in through the carriage door.
When they saw Polaris' smile just now, they knew that this guy would definitely gain something from Jack. It was really enviable and jealous.
"Mr. Jack."
Dongyang and others saluted.
Chen Lun waved his hand, and the round benches stacked next to him suddenly levitated and were immediately placed in a circle in front of him. The nine players were surprised at first, and then sat on it consciously.
"——It feels like Jack is becoming more and more mysterious."
"——Bird food."
"——This move is a bit cool. I have already recorded it. I will show it to other Jimei in the group. Hahahaha...!"
Dongyang looked at the black hat gentleman in front of him, and then looked at Chen Xi and others beside him.
The players in the carriage are basically members of several of their guilds. The equipment and props they purchased from Jack have long been digested by the guilds. They need to purchase more this time, and they are also preparing for this mission. Prepare.
The consortium's support for the guild is getting bigger and bigger. Dongyang is not afraid of spending money at all, but is afraid that Jack will have no goods here! He had gone to Jack's Manor more than once, but couldn't buy anything from Sister Floy.
The muskets, mechanical gloves, ammunition and fuel were okay, but the number of props in the hidden column was limited, and they would only be produced every once in a while, which made him very anxious.
Moreover, for those limited edition items, you still have to fight with Chenxi Goutoujin and others, which is unbearable.
bite!
The golden word "Exchange" popped up on Chen Lun's head.
Several people in Dongyang immediately clicked on it and started a crazy buying mode.
What kind of bombs, no matter whether they are red or blue, here are seventy or eighty of them first!
The muskets and mechanical gloves are used as "circus suits". Dozens of them are put together and put on by the brothers in the carriage first! Place an order later and keep it in the manor warehouse for preparation!
Red and blue potion bottles, a must, buy them!
Oops! In the hidden column, the "Beef Powerful Bottle" has finally been officially shipped! purchase!
"Eh?! Why is it gone?!"
Dongyang was suddenly stunned. In just one second, the crimson potion turned directly into gray, making interaction impossible.
Turning around, he saw Goutou Jin and Wang Wangwuji looking at him with playful smiles. They put two fingers on their foreheads and saluted him.
"Bleach! These two Xiaobishan!"
Dongyang's lungs were about to burst with anger, but Jack was sitting in front of him, so he couldn't get angry.
Soon, he discovered a new type of product appearing in the hidden column. Those were oil paintings, and those painted on them were the circus cadres and members!
The price of each person's portrait is different, and Floy's and Noah's are more expensive.
Just when he clicked to check, the paintings of Floy and Noah had turned gray. Dongyang was slightly startled, feeling bad all over, and then without thinking, he directly removed the remaining Golov and Bought all of Patton's paintings.
Dongyang turned around and saw Chenxi and Weiyin smiling at him.
"Good guys, you guys are so fast!"
"You are not as fast as you, Dongyang Ju. You have taken down all the remaining ten paintings. I should call you Kuai Nan."
Oyin chuckled and said.
Dongyang's eyes twitched.
"By the way, when you call me, can you not add the word 'gi'? It sounds like a singer...and if I am a fast boy, then you are a tank, and you stinky old bitches are here to act cute!"
Luyin Loli's eyes suddenly became sharp.
She held Noah's portrait in her arms and threatened:
"Do you want to make a move! I know where you live, and you who are offline...cough."
Ouyin glanced at Jack and found that he was turning his head to look at the scenery outside the window.
"Just wait, don't let me catch you!"
She lowered her voice and said viciously.
Dongyang was not afraid, and then the two moved to the chat room and started a series of confrontations in it.
A long while.
The shopping for the top players is almost over.
Chen Xi said at this moment:
"Mr. Jack, I want to buy some extraordinary knowledge."
Her words pulled Dongyang away from the line, and he immediately said:
"I also want to buy extraordinary knowledge!"
As time goes by, other players have begun to advance to transcendence not long ago. The reactions of large guilds are somewhat urgent. If they want to maintain their leading position, they can only make the guild more powerful.
So much so that guild representatives such as Dongyang, Chenxi, and Kotoujin all want to exchange a batch of extraordinary knowledge from Jack so that the effective cadres in the guild can become extraordinary.
Although Jack's extraordinary knowledge here is very expensive, it is better than simple, crude and direct. The consortium lacks everything except money.
Chen Lun nodded and smiled understandingly.
"No problem."
He waved his hand, and ten extraordinary knowledge sequences appeared in the hidden column.
This time, all the top players unanimously set their sights on the [Beast Tamer] of the Destiny faction. Nothing but because Polaris is so impressive!
This is definitely a promising sequence!
But they soon noticed that after this entry of extraordinary knowledge, there was also a "limited edition (3/3 remaining)" marked!
Only three servings!
Must grab it!
This time Dongyang had quick eyesight and quick hands, and he bought two copies with lightning speed, while Chen Xi only grabbed one.
Nugget Gold and Wang Wuji were left empty-handed.
"Hey...!"
Dongyang was inexplicably happy. He held two pieces of paper in his hand and put them away carefully with a little show off.
Chen Xi and Kotou Jin rolled their eyes at him.
Immediately they all felt confused. Although other extraordinary knowledge was also limited, there were more than a dozen copies. Why were there so few from the Destiny Faction?
Chen Lun felt helpless when he saw how entangled they were.
He didn't have the mysterious materials of the Destiny Faction at all, so these three copies were copied from pure materials. In a short period of time, it would be unrealistic for him to sell the extraordinary knowledge of the Destiny Faction on a large scale.
The Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce has a wide range of channels, but it cannot buy the mysterious substances of the Destiny Faction. It seems that the quantity is too scarce.
When Chen Lun purchased mysterious substances from other sources from the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce, he almost always paid a premium. The market price of a portion of the mysterious substance is around 50 gold pounds, and he spent 60 gold pounds per portion.
Fortunately, after consuming them and transcribing them into extraordinary knowledge, and then selling them to players, the profits increased more than dozens of times. It was definitely a bloody profit.
Chen Lun never tired of it.
'After that, I will try to get some mysterious substances from the Destiny faction. With Polaris helping me build momentum, more and more players will definitely want to take this path... But they don't know that the reason why Polaris is so strong is because he has My exclusive skill [animal imitation]!
Once you fall into this trap and find that you can only use [Beast Language] to command animals, in contrast, you will definitely feel very disappointed... Well, guess what. ’
he thought.
Before Dongyang and others came this time, they had obviously made enough preparations and brought enough money.
They purchased almost all of Chen Lun's extraordinary knowledge, and their consumption contributed a total of more than 50,000 gold pounds to Chen Lun's wallet.
‘Another huge sum of money... However, the extraordinary knowledge of [Sequence 9] can only be sold at such a high price during this period of time. I have finally taken advantage of this wave of dividends.
After a while, when the number of extraordinary players increases, the price will have to slowly drop... But by then, I can also release the extraordinary knowledge of [Sequence 8]. ’
Chen Lun thought to himself.

The time soon came three days later.
The train stopped at the platform of Huangtie City. The three Red Apple Church branches were in the small town near Huangtie City.
When Chen Lun came out of the carriage, several flight attendants saluted him respectfully and said goodbye with smiles.
This is the power of money.
He didn't pay much attention. He held on to his black hat and silver cane and came to the players.
"Let's go."
"Yes!"
Dongyang and others replied, and then each led their own family members, following Chen Lun.
There were also many other players at the train station who were a little surprised to see this battle, not knowing what these people were going to do.
Another half day later.
The group finally arrived at their first destination, Bingnuo Town.
Everyone's first impression after entering this small town is that it is dirty and messy!
The plague has eroded this place very seriously, and the town is in a state of devastation. Most of the shops have been closed, and some have even been pried open and the inside was looted.
The streets had not been cleaned for a long time, and patches of black dirt that looked like blood stains stuck to the ground like gel. All kinds of garbage can be seen everywhere, and old and mutilated newspapers are blowing in the wind.
Dongyang and others contacted the guild on the train and found out the maps of the three towns in advance. Guild members from other places sent them to them by email, so they knew the location of the Red Apple Church here.
The group of people looked left and right, shaking their heads secretly at the desolate town.
The scene was so real that they couldn't distinguish between reality and games for a moment.
Soon they came to the block closest to the church, and a pungent smell of blood hit their faces. What they saw were corpses all over the street, and players who were hunting down disease patients.
"Mr. Jack? Should we go directly to the church, or...?"
Dongyang and others stopped and turned to ask Chen Lun.
"You can decide for yourself."
Chen Lun was noncommittal and said softly while holding his silver cane.
At this moment, the players who were fighting also noticed the arrival of this large group of strangers. They were surprised at first, and then looked wary and bored.
Several of them exchanged glances and communicated secretly.
"——Where did these people come from? Are they new people nearby?"
"——I don't know, but it doesn't look like... I lost my investigation. They are players from the big guilds of Ying Ling Pavilion, Shen Ai and Chu Xi."
"——What should we do?"
"——What are you afraid of? This is our territory. It doesn't matter who comes!"
Then, among them, a male player carrying a dagger and wearing leather armor came out. He was not afraid of nearly a hundred people, but said in a cold and arrogant voice:
"This is the leveling venue of the Lost Name Guild. Where did you come from? Go back there!"
"Huh?!"
Dongyang and others suddenly sneered.
Dongyang and Chenxi are both high-level members of the guild, one is the vice-guild member of Yingling Pavilion and the other is the president of Chuxi. Now they are a little annoyed by the arrogant attitude of a minor character on the other side.
But they know that the opponent's number is obviously smaller than theirs, but they are not afraid. It is obvious that they have something to rely on, which makes them confident.
"We are not here to level up, nor will we compete with you for monsters... We are just passing by, you continue to level up."
Dongyang said.
"Just passing by? Who believes it!"
The disgraced player sneered.
"There are so many of you, you are so full that you come here for a walk?"
Another person next to him took over and said coldly:
"If you want to go through here, there is no door! I warn you again, leave immediately, otherwise don't blame us for being rude! We are all members of the three major guilds, who is afraid of whom?"
Dongyang and others' expressions darkened.
They knew from the map that there was indeed a detour to go to the church, but in the current situation, it was obvious that the town had been occupied by the Lost Name Guild, and it was meaningless whether to take a detour or not.
The players of the Lost Name Guild stopped fighting and gathered around, looking at Dongyang and the others with unkind expressions. The two sides were in a confrontation.
The guy who spoke first opened his mouth and wanted to continue talking, but the next second——
Bang!
Dense blood blossomed from his chest, then his eyes widened and he fell to the ground seriously injured.
boom!
Another basketball-sized flame fell on him. The sizzling sound of the barbecue was accompanied by screams, and the man turned into white light and disappeared.
Everyone present was shocked. When they turned around, they saw Polaris wearing mechanical gloves and holding a musket indifferently.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Just get started!" Thank you fisher for the 10,000-point helmsman reward! Thank you for the 1,500 points reward for not wanting to drive but just showing off!
