Chapter 758: Deception

Su Xiao was sitting at the counter that he often used. Since he needed the Paradise coins, he was going to sell two things for a very high price.

The Bull-headed Lord's armband looked very attractive. If a newbie saw the description of this item, they would probably decide to buy this item and use it as a last resort. Not to mention the newbies, even Su Xiao thought of this armband in a similar vein until he activated this skill one day.

After thinking for a while, the corners of Su Xiao's mouth turned up and he took out a spool of thread from his armband. The coil itself was already broken, so it wouldn't add value to this thing.

After that, Su Xiao started thinking about the price. Seeing the expression on his face, Bubtney sighed. He realized that Su Xiao would be deceiving someone today.

In the end, the Overlord's Armor was billed for 100,000 Paradise Coins, and the Skill was billed for 120,000 coins.

The armband was obviously worth the money. As for the skill, it was a pale gold skill scroll. Even though there was a chance of developing schizophrenia when using this scroll, after all, it was of a pale gold quality.

After putting up the prices, Su Xiao started waiting for the "victim" to appear».

Several contractors were immediately attracted by the pleasant light...

The man in the suit raised his armband. After checking its stats, he smiled and shook his head. "Ninety thousand," he said, and replaced the armband.

Hearing this, Su Xiao looked the man in the suit up and down. He didn't look like a newbie, so he immediately understood what he was talking about.

— One hundred and ten thousand minimum.

— It's too expensive. You and I both know about the side effects of this skill.

— True, but its quality speaks for itself.

The conversation between Su Xiao and the man in the suit had thrown several contractors nearby into confusion.

In fact, they weren't discussing the price of the armband, but the price of the skill scroll.

— Are you going to keep it at the bottom of your inventory? To be honest, I want to resell it. If you don't lower the price, the profit will be very small...

The man in the suit really wasn't a novice. He was a typical salesman.

Su Xiao didn't want this scroll to end up lying around in his inventory. In fact, if this scroll could find its buyer, it would sell for about 110,000-130,000, but because of its side effects, this scroll could only be used by a very small number of people.

— At least a hundred thousand, if you want to bargain more, then you should go further.

— It's a deal.

The man in the suit immediately transferred the money and took the scroll.

Su Xiao's mood rose noticeably due to this sale. He was already prepared for the fact that he would have to sell this scroll for quite some time. He didn't expect to meet such a person right after opening the counter.

Now only the armband remained on the counter. How much Su Xiao could sell it for was entirely up to him.

There was an endless stream of contractors in the marketplace, as usual, and many of them stopped in front of the counters to bargain. Many newcomers were interested in the Bull-headed Overlord's Armor, but the price of 100,000 Paradise Coins immediately forced them to walk away. As for experienced contractors, they would not spend money on such junk.

Half an hour later, a young man walked past the counter. The young man was not alone. He had a very beautiful female companion on his arm.

Su Xiao raised his head and looked at them. This guy was most likely a brand-new second-rank contractor. Most first-rank contractors couldn't afford such a thing. Judging from his slightly domineering appearance, this guy was most likely very confident in his abilities. As for his companion, Su Xiao was more than 80% sure that she was an employee. There was no smell of blood on her body, and her steps were chaotic and shallow, while her eyes didn't look like she had gone through even one battle.

Frivolous contractor plus employee... For Su Xiao, this combination was equal to a large sum of coins.

— Brother, sell this armband cheaper. Although his skill is powerful, it consumes 30% health. The activation price is too high, and the skill's cooldown time is too long. I'm willing to pay up to 50,000, " the guy said, picking up the armband and starting to examine it.

He was clearly interested in it.

After listening to the guy's words, Su Xiao thought to himself that it would be nice if these were the only drawbacks of this thing.

— The minimum price is 100,000, no haggling, " Su Xiao replied without emotion.

— Just a purple armband for 100,000 coins? Do you think it's a dark purple outfit? The guy's tone was a little angry, but he didn't make the slightest move and stayed where he was.

— If I didn't find something better, I wouldn't have taken this armband off and sold it, " Su Xiao said as he raised his left hand, and his new pale gold quality armband immediately shone.

— Pale gold... the boy's pupils dilated. Although he was a brand-new second-rank contractor, he belonged to a medium-sized guild. For special reasons, his status in this guild wasn't low.

— Forget it, a hundred thousand is too expensive... the employee said timidly. She had spent significantly more time in Paradise than this guy, but she was afraid of offending him and Su Xiao.

— Shut up, " the guy's hands immediately began to wander under the employee's clothes. The employee's breathing quickened, and her brow furrowed slightly.

— A strong contractor like you shouldn't be so stingy, tell me the normal price.

— No problem, " Su Xiao replied and glanced at the female employee, who smiled bitterly when she saw his gaze on her. "Ninety thousand.

— Hmm~... You're so generous.

— If you don't want to buy, don't buy it. Any experienced contractor knows how valuable this item is.

Of course, an experienced contractor wouldn't spend more than 60,000 coins on this armband. His skill was really powerful, but it had a lot of side effects. After the skill stopped working, the body would feel weak and dizzy. In battle, such weakness would be fatal.

— Eighty thousand and not a coin more, " the guy said, and seemed ready to leave.

— Hmm~, " Su Xiao sighed. He seemed to hesitate, which made the boy smile.

— Don't hesitate. You already have a higher quality armband. Turning your old gear into coins to become stronger is always the right choice.

The boy's heartbeat began to accelerate. He had only developed one stat, so he now had 51 points of strength. With the effect of this armband's skill, he would be able to disable any opponent with a single hit.

As for the cost in the form of consuming 30% of the maximum amount of health, he just needed to activate it when he had around 50% or more health. After all, if he activated it with 50% health, he would have 20% left, which wasn't a small amount.
