After chatting, Casanova’s two secrets were echoing in Qin Ruo’s head.
This Demigod equipment was quite big news.
The meaning behind this news quite significant too.
If there was any way someone could acquire a Demigod equipment without anyone knowing, it would definitely be a secret operation that was held by the Angel Faction’s Leagues. This would require precision and intel, an operation that only Leagues could perform.
And yet, a Demigod equipment was appearing as a final auction item in Casanova’s Trading Hall’s Grand Auction.
When it appeared in front of the public, the mysterious stats of the Demigod equipment would be revealed!
And, there was nothing Qin Ruo could do to stop this from happening.
The seller who wanted to auction off the Demigod equipment surely wanted it to be sold off so as to acquire the ungodly amount of money he wanted. And Casanova too wanted to use this Demigod equipment as a means to make the Grand Auction a sess.
Therefore, Qin Ruo, even though he wanted to, couldn’t bring himself to ask Casanova to secretly sell the equipment to him under the table.
***
As for the “second secret”, it was also as surprising as the first one.
A n named “The Prinz” was established the same day as the Currency Exchange Systemunched.
A Terramancer named “Big Bruvver” had acquired over two hundred and thirty Legendary gears and Divinities in an obscenely short time.
And there were over two hundred eighty members in The Prinz.
ording to Big Bruvver, his n The Prinz nned to equip all his n members with legendary gears and Divinities—to create a super elite n that possessed a full roster of Winged Champions d in Legendary gears. He wanted to surpass the Fallen Angels in a short time.
Although Qin Ruo did predict that these rich spoiled brats woulde out andpete with them in the future, throwing cash wherever they go, he didn’t think they would act on the very first day.
To acquire a full set of Legendary gear and Divinity, one would need to spend at least two billion gold coins! If these gears were to cost a little more, it might cost 5 billion and above.
And if these Prinz snobs were sessful in getting all these equipment, they would then have about three hundred yers who were as strong as the Veteran Champions.
This would stir up quite a storm in the game’smunity.
“Several dozen billion of Chinese Yuan gone, poof, in a day! These rich spoiled kids are really going at it...” Qin Ruo rubbed his forehead to ease his headache.
What a waste of money!
However, it wasn’t all bad news from Casanova.
The equipment that the Prinzmissioned couldn’t be acquired in such a short time—it would take at least half a month topletely gather all the gears they wanted. And most of these rich kids had not even advanced to Tier 5 yet. Thus, it wasn’t possible for them to rise up in the Angel Faction in such a short time. It wasn’t possible for them topete with Fallen Angels at all.
Besides, these rich kids were all elitists. They thought very lowly of other yers in the game. They were very stuck-up and condescending to anyone who wasn’t a part of their social circle. Even if they did form a League, no one but masochists would join these snobs.
In other words, they wouldn’t be much of a threat to anyone.
As he was lost in his thoughts, Violet Orchid’s voice spoke, “Little Ruo, the gangs in the Underworld had nowpleted their preparations. Where are you?”
Qin Ruo then realized that he had been chatting with Casanova for half an hour. Even though there were still a lot of people at the Eternal Portal, there were already over thousands of yers and Summoners on the other side, in the Underworld, standing by.
Thus, Qin Ruo decided, ‘If these Prinz could go with the flow and not cause any trouble, it’s fine. If they do be a threat, it’s still quite easy to destroy them.’
‘As for the Demigod equipment, the Grand Auction will be held at 1pm and it will go on for 24 hours. Only the yer who bid the highest price during that time would be its owner. So, there’s no rush.’
Indeed, there was no rush at all.
Right now the more important thing at hand was the Project Pioneer.
***
Underworld, Camp Edgar.
From early morning up until now, the Camp leader “Edgar” had been pulling a long face. Even the alchemist Yaegar, who was always sitting in the tent, had walked out of his tent after being spooked by the increasing poption of yers in the camp.
The first ones who arrived were several dozen Summoners...
Then, there were more and more Summoners emerging from the blinding lights from the Warp Portal. Every single time, there were at least several thousands of yers being summoned to Camp Edgar.
Two hours hadn’t even passed and yet there were already over thirty thousands of Fallen Angels gathered around Camp Edgar!
Other than the ones who were patrolling near the hills, the other three areas of the camp were all filled with Tier 5 Warriors. Battle cries could be heard from all directions. In just a few minutes, Camp Edgar was surrounded by several dozen of thousands of men!
This had never appeared in the Underworld before!
Yet, the three Demigod NPCs at Camp Edgar all pulled a long face until Qin Ruo appeared in the camp.
The leader “Edgar” quickly approached him, “Qin Ruo, did you ept that Pioneer Quest?”
Qin Ruo looked at Edgar curiously. From the looks of it, it seemed that Edgar was interrogating him. Looking around him, the other two NPCs also had a serious look on their faces. Knowing that something was wrong, Qin Ruo nodded, “Yeah, I did.”
Hearing this, Edgar and his fellow Demigod NPCs looked even grimmer.
Edgar inquired further, “Are you... are you nning to use that Teleportation Seal at our camp here? To build a city?”
Puzzled, Qin Ruo nodded and looked at them, “Is something wrong?”
The reason he wanted to build at Camp Edgar was because this was the first camp that he visited in the Underworld. So, the surrounding area of the camp was the ce he spent the most time in here and it was an area that he was mostfortable with and knew well. Secondly, he had destroyed most of the Undead Gathering Grounds in the area. So, it was the safest spot he could think of. And finally, he had already ensured that there were no other powerful Bosses in the area. He had even used his Angelic Wings and disguise to test for any reactions in the area.
The ce was the safest and most stable spot to build his city.
“Oh, something is indeed wrong over here.”
Edgar replied solemnly, “Do you have any idea just how dangerous it is to build a city in the Underworld?”
“I do know it’s risky. But the Casten Endless Battle agreed and allowed the Fallen Angels to build city here in the Underworld. So, that means we have a chance to seed.”
“Seed? How? You want to establish a stronghold here just with these ordinary Warriors?”
Qin Ruo could clearly see Edgar’s face screaming “you arrogant, ignorant brat!” as they spoke.
“Hundred-Battle has no idea what’s going on here in the Underworld. How could he know about this ce more than us, the ones who have been dwelling here for eons? No one in the Mythical Continent knows just how bad this ce is! If any of you have advanced to Demigod Tier, then you still have a chance and yet, look at you! Most of you don’t even have Divinity yet! What makes you think you can survive the Underworld?!”
“Can these little greenhorns survive an onught of a Lich Army? Huh?”
Edgar’s preaching words had now turned into a stern lecture. If Qin Ruo didn’t make a lot of preparations beforehand, he might have been spooked by these words and cancelled his operation.
“Regardless!” Edgar looked at Qin Ruo determinedly, “It’s still time for you to turn back now. The Teleportation Seal can be used anytime you want. You can wait until you’ve got a batch of Demigod Tier Champions... then...”
“No.”
Qin Ruo interrupted Edgar abruptly.
“We’ll build the city in seven days. I have faith in my Fallen Angels. They will be able to fend for themselves for a full week. It’s not a problem at all.”
“You...!!”
Edgar’s face turned grim. He didn’t think Qin Ruo would still insist on resuming with the Project Pioneer after hearing his warning.
“Edgar, stop.” Yaegar approached from behind Edgar, “In fact... no one has ever built a city in the Underworld before. We too don’t really know just what kind of danger or obstacles they would face. If Qin Ruo wants to continue, all we can do is just wait and watch.”
Then, Yaegar turned to Qin Ruo. “But there’s something I’ll need you to know...”
Yaegar pointed to the sky and continued, “When your League is building the city, all three of us will remain in our Camp. We won’t interfere. Because if we do, it’d bring a lot more trouble to you.”
“If you seed ... we’ll stay in your city. We can be your Resurrector, Alchemist, and also Guardians of your city. However, if you fail and there’s a threat approaching our Warp Portal, we’ll leave right away!”
Qin Ruo nodded.
He didn’t think these three Demigod Champions would offer aid at all as to defend the construction site of the city was the yers’ job.
Seeing that Edgar had finally given in and walked away with Yaegar, Qin Ruo quickly ordered his men to start moving out of the camp.
As they were walking away, Edgar scolded Yaegar for not allowing him to tell Qin Ruo about “that thing”.
Yaegar looked Qin Ruo, who was leaving the camp, and sighed, “We’ve moved so far and so long away from that ce. After hiding for so long, I don’t really know if it was still there. Besides, you saw how determined he was. After preparing everything, the bearer of the Ring of Honor isn’t afraid of some Divine Specter. Or else, the ring wouldn’t have chosen him to be its bearer.”
Edgar had no choice but to remain silent.
