Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 155: Chapter 154: Newbies Are So Easy to Fool

An hour later.

Lin You finally returned to the Main City once again.

Before entering the city, he summoned back all the species around him, leaving only Lingxi for protection.

Very soon.

He passed through the city gate and entered the mission hall.

After submitting the mission, his honor points instantly soared to over twelve thousand.

Though not much, it was quite a sum for someone like him who was at the Main City for the first day.

After receiving the points, he immediately proceeded to the points exchange area to start trading for items.

The first thing he wanted to exchange for was the Teleportation Crystal he had seen other lords use before.

[Consumable: Teleportation Crystal]

[Function: After using the crystal, you can directly teleport back to the Main City, usable only on the border battlefield, preparation time 5 seconds.]

[Exchange requirement: 1000 honor points, 10,000 Magic Energy]

Very expensive!

But very worthwhile!

This was Lin You’s assessment of the Teleportation Crystal.

Even though one crystal costs a thousand points and ten thousand Magic Energy, it was something that could save a life in critical moments.

With this item in hand, he could teleport back to the Main City anytime, anywhere.

Even if his territory was in peril, he could return in time to rescue, absolutely a must-have for going out on adventures.

The only downside is the 5 seconds preparation time needed.

If encountered with a high-tier lord, like those of Tier Eight and Nine, they wouldn’t give you time to prepare and would take you down instantly.

This must be noted carefully.

Without further thought, Lin You directly exchanged for a Teleportation Crystal, then continued searching.

One must admit, the categorization in this points exchange interface was extremely well done, making it very convenient to find items.

Soon, Lin You found another item he wanted.

[Consumable: Substitute Scarecrow]

[Function: When the carrier suffers fatal damage, it can replace and endure the damage, and will be automatically destroyed after effect, ineffective against rules category attacks.]

[Exchange requirement: 10,000 honor points, 100,000 Magic Energy]

Exactly!

Another life-saving item.

And it’s specifically targeting situations involving high-tier lords.

After all, having an extra life greatly increases the chances of surviving on this battlefield.

Especially after witnessing the horror of a Tier Nine Demon, he dared not take anything lightly.

Resources could be earned again if lost.

But once a person dies, everything is truly lost.

So Lin You gritted his teeth and decided to exchange for a Substitute Scarecrow.

Suddenly, his honor points were only a thousand, and his Magic Energy dropped below five hundred thousand.

Finally, he spent 500 points to buy two experience-enhancing artifacts.

[Consumable: Experience Ball (Tier Six)]

[Function: Increases 250 experience points for a designated species, only effective for species below Tier Six.]

[Exchange requirement: 250 honor points, 2500 Magic Energy]

This artifact was bought for Cyan Gang.

Currently, Cyan Gang had reached Tier Six.

But to level up to Tier Seven would take some time.

Considering the various group battles he might face next, he needed Cyan Gang’s “Barbaric Roar” skill, so it was better to hurry and level it up to Tier Seven.

It would be a significant boost then.

The 30% attribute enhancement effect of Barbaric Roar for 30 seconds was terrifying indeed.

As for the remaining five hundred points, he decided to keep them for any emergencies, and then exited the exchange interface, feeling much more at ease.

With these two life-saving artifacts, he could now venture on the battlefield and earn points with peace of mind.

But before that, he needed to return to his territory first.

After all, the territory was his foundation.

Having been out for so long, it was about time to go back and check, lest any troubles arise.

With that thought in mind, he turned around and left the hall, stepping onto the main street outside.

At this moment, the sun had already set in the west.

Yet the streets were bustling with many lords and cultivators.

They all seemed to have just returned from outside, looking travel-worn.

The hawking shouts from the nearby shopkeepers and vendors were incessant, all selling the day’s harvest.

“Come, come, take a look, Tier Eight Gold-devouring Silkworm silk, essential for crafting protective gear, rare material, selling cheap!”

Just then, a loud shout caught Lin You’s attention, making him pause.

He followed the voice to see a robust lord at a small stall on the side, loudly calling out.

Tier Eight Lord!

Lin You was secretly startled, realizing that the aura on this lord was no weaker than a Soldier Commander, it was indeed a Tier Eight Lord!

Lin You had heard from Mageon that the Golden Silk was one of the best materials for crafting Chain Armor.

And it was Tier Eight!

Unconsciously, he proceeded toward the stall.

The lord saw him approaching, and his eyes lit up instantly.

“Oh, young brother, you look unfamiliar, just arrived at the Main City? Want to take a look at this bundle of Golden Silk? Perfect for crafting protective gear.”

This lord, clearly a thick-skinned individual, had none of the high-tier lord arrogance, but was instead warmly greeting Lin You.

Lin You glanced at the silk on the stall, asking, “With such good material, why don’t you use it to craft your own armor?”

“Of course, it’s due to a lack of funds, just trying to earn some pocket money,” the lord said winking, “How about it? Young brother, interested? I’m not exaggerating, armor crafted from this material is unbeatable in the same tier, blocking a Tier Eight hit won’t be a problem, definitely essential for adventuring, and I can give you a discount.”

“Hah! Kid, don’t listen to him.”

Suddenly, another voice came from the side.

Lin You turned to see a burly man at another stall looking over with disdain, saying:

“He’s just bluffing because he couldn’t find a Tier Eight craftsman to make gear, so he tries to fool people. Don’t be tricked by him.”

So that’s how it is…

Lin You suddenly understood.

He took another look at the burly man, noticing that his aura was equivalent to that of the lord before him, also evidently a Tier Eight Lord!

What’s going on here?

Suddenly, two Tier Eights appeared.

Is Tier Eight Lord starting to be mass-produced?

However, before he could think further, the lord in front of him spoke again.

He didn’t seem annoyed at all, instead wearing a confident smile.

“I didn’t lie, you can’t deny the value of Tier Eight Gold-devouring Silkworm silk, right? What if you get lucky and meet a Tier Eight craftsman one day? Don’t you think so, young brother?”

“Uh… indeed,” Lin You nodded, a bit dazed.

After hesitating for a moment, he couldn’t resist asking, “How much are you selling this material for?”

“Originally, I planned to sell it for 200,000 Magic Energy, but since I find you likable, how about 100,000?”

Good heavens, directly halved.

This is too likable…

Lin You was speechless.

But he was quite tempted by this Tier Eight silk.

After all, he still didn’t have suitable protective gear, and with a Master Craftsman from the Dwarf Race like Mageon in his territory…

Materials that others couldn’t craft, he possibly could.

So after a brief hesitation, Lin You said, “Alright, I’ll take this Golden Silk.”

“Are you sure?”

The lord’s eyes instantly brightened.

He was only passing time, casually talking, never expecting Lin You to actually buy the material.

Even the burly man beside showed a stunned expression, looking at Lin You as if seeing an idiot.

Even though 100,000 Magic Energy was a bit low for Tier Eight Golden Silk Worm, crafting it was extremely difficult.

Unless one knew a craftsman above Tier Eight, no one would senselessly buy such a material, no wonder he showed such an expression.

Regardless of their thoughts.

The transaction was ultimately completed.

The Tier Eight Lord, astonished beyond words, received 100,000 Magic Energy.

And Lin You left with his Golden Silk.

The burly man was left bewildered.

It wasn’t until Lin You went a distance away did he blurt out a sentence.

“Doesn’t it seem that newcomers these days… are so easy to fool?”
