Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 563 Preparing for Promotion
The corpse of a C-level professional.

Even in today's maze city, C-level professionals are still very rare, and this time, there are actually two bodies of C-level professionals on the auction list.

With such a temptation in front of him, how could Xiao Ran miss it?

“What are the requirements for participation?”

"This auction requires 2 ghost money as a deposit."

The butler would not rashly recommend this kind of auction to anyone. Only people like Xiao Ran who have large expenditures would be identified as potential targets.

The deposit of 20,000 yuan in ghost money is not something that ordinary passers-by can come up with casually.

Xiao Ran didn't hesitate to take out 20,000 ghost money bills and said, "I'll join."

"As you wish, we will deliver the items you want soon. The auction will take about an hour to prepare. You can see the bidding on the display screen in the box. There is a bid protector next to it. If you have any other needs, Penglai Tower will do everything possible to meet your needs."

After some nice polite words, the butler bent down and walked away.

Xiao Ran was lying on the sofa, holding the auction list in one hand, and quickly calculating in his mind how much paper money he had left.

C-level corpse, full of treasures.

You may not be able to understand how valuable a corpse is, but it is actually not difficult to calculate it if you do the math.

Not to mention that he has corpse-sewers like Zhen'e Ling, let's just talk about the profession of robbers. Their abilities can directly plunder the inheritance in the space of corpses.

So a corpse can be the first to be looted by robbers.

It is hard to say how many treasures are in the space of a C-level professional, but they are definitely valuable. If it is a C-level cursed object, the price can reach tens of thousands of ghost money.

After being robbed by bandits, the corpse can be resold, for example, to a corpse-stitcher sequence like oneself. The more cruel ones may even sell it to a chef sequence like livestock.

The chef can plunder the properties of the corpse from various parts, and even make it into a delicacy with enhanced properties and then sell it, which is also very expensive.

And if they fall into the hands of a corpse sewer like me, not to mention the power of the [Evil-Suppressing Order], both of them can be excellent material for corpse slaves.

So if we roughly calculate the value of these two corpses, the value of each corpse will not be less than 30,000 ghost money, and this is still a conservative estimate.

Although he had enough money on hand, he had to set aside at least 100,000 yuan as the starting capital for the Miracle Pavilion, so all in all, the funds Xiao Ran could use would not exceed 80,000 yuan.

"Unfortunately, it doesn't say what the occupations of these two C-level corpses are. Let's take a look first. If they are too expensive, forget it."

After waiting for a while, there was a knock on the door. The housekeeper came in and brought up all the things Xiao Ran had just bought.

Two sets of spell patterns from F to D level for different professions, a total of ten scrolls of spell patterns. (Including consumables required for advancement.)
In addition, Penglai Tower also specially gave Xiao Ran some high-quality apricot yellow paper and an E-level cursed item [Shaving Knife].

These things themselves are not valuable, but they are thoughtful enough.

It can be seen that Penglai Tower is not just about business, but also involves human relationships.

After Xiao Ran received the things, the butler brought a fruit plate, snacks, and tea. After making sure that Xiao Ran had no other instructions, he turned around and left.

After the housekeeper left, Xiao Ran put away his things, took out his little notebook and ticked the item about changing career.

After waiting for a while, the auction began.

Various cursed objects were taken out one by one, and the information about these cursed objects could be seen through the display in front.

This includes how well these things fit with your profession.

The basic information is clearly visible and very convenient for auctioneers to view.

Xiao Ran was not interested in these cursed objects, but reading this information reminded him that he still had two A-level cursed objects in his hands.

One is [Door Manager's Pen] and the other is [Sublimation Gem]

"Once I complete my career change, these two items will come in handy. In comparison, although these cursed items are rare, they are not something that I must have."

In the beginner stage, people are mainly pragmatic. No matter what the thing is like, they will just use it first because they have no choice.

But as your strength increases, you have to start doing subtraction.

Choose a career that suits you, carefully select the right curse, become more and more refined, and gradually extract your own unique strength from the chaos of various skills. This is the difference between a professional and a beginner.

Just like at this moment, Xiao Ran's career plan is the only way to enter the profession.

"Everyone, the next thing is quite special. It is the body of a C-level professional. What is rare is that this body is very well preserved. Apart from a fatal wound, there is nothing else missing. Penglai Tower guarantees that this body is original and has definitely not been passed through another person's hands."

As the host spoke, he slowly pushed a coffin into the venue.

As the coffin was opened, everyone squinted at the picture on the monitor, but the face of the corpse was covered with a black cloth, so that no one could tell who the body was.

However, information about the corpse appeared in front of everyone.

C-level professionals, known professions are [Full-time Master], D-level profession [Horizontal Training], E-level profession [Bronze Bell Shaman]

When the information appeared in front of everyone, Xiao Ran could hear a cry of surprise even through the box.

Xiao Ran himself had a gleam in his eyes and suddenly stood up from his chair.

"The King's Avatar!!!"

These four words made Xiao Ran's heart beat wildly. "Full-time Master", this is a more precious consumable than a lucky person.

[Lucky Man] is already enough to be sold at the Penglai Pavilion at a sky-high price of around 50,000 ghost money. The most important thing is that it is in short supply. Even in the Penglai Tower there are only a few of them in stock. If you want to buy it, you need to pay a lot of additional conditions.

If Xiao Ran didn't have one himself, just buying a [Lucky Man] would be enough to make him bleed heavily.

As an advanced version of Lucky Man, The King's Avatar is naturally more powerful and rarer in effect.

As long as I can refine this spell pattern, the difficulty of advancing to a B-level profession in the future will be reduced by at least half.

At this moment, people in other boxes were also discussing, but most of them were expressing regret.

"What a pity, he has become a corpse. If he was still alive, perhaps there would be a way to extract this curse pattern."

The C-level profession of the Bandit Path, [Fruit Thief], has the ability to steal other people's curse runes.

However, I heard that the requirements are very harsh, requiring the other party to endure the pain of having their profession stolen without any resistance. But this requirement is nothing compared to the consumable material of [The King's Avatar].

If this person is alive, those present have plenty of ways to ensure that he or she survives this process.

"What a pity! If he were alive, he would be worth at least hundreds of thousands of ghost money. Now that he's dead, he's worthless."

Everyone felt sorry for him, but Xiao Ran's heart was burning with anger at this moment.

They can't get it because they don't have the [Evil-Suppressing Order], which is actually a great opportunity for them.

"Everyone, the starting price this time is 3 ghost money!!"

The host called for more.

But no one on the screen made an additional bid.

The price of a C-level professional's corpse is at most around 3, even though the profession of this corpse is a full-time master.

But once you are dead, you are worthless, and no one will pay for this label.

Seeing the countdown going away minute by minute, Xiao Ran gently pressed the bidding button.

“Thirty thousand!!”

When the host saw someone bidding, tears welled up in his eyes. If the body failed to sell, the price would have to be discounted the next time it was sold. This would be a loss-making business for Penglai Tower and would affect its own performance.

"30,000 per time!! This client has a very strategic eye. The corpses of professionals are extremely rare at the moment. The bones, blood, and even the organs are all very valuable. If you can take a picture of them, you'll make a profit."

While the host called out the bids, he did not forget to brag about Xiao Ran, but everyone could tell that this guy was more promoting the value of the corpse, hoping to attract more people to bid.

"Thirty thousand two times!!"

Seeing that there was no enthusiastic response from the people around and no one was willing to bid on the body, the host had no choice but to choose to drop the hammer.

"Thirty thousand three times, deal. Congratulations to this customer!"

As the host said this, he had the coffin pushed down and taken to the box where Xiao Ran was for the transaction.

"Hey, 30,000 for a corpse. Unless there are a few C-rank cursed items, this deal is a huge loss."

Everyone sneered at this.

Even for robbers, chefs, and corpse stitchers, the three professions that can maximize profits from corpses, it is difficult to make a profit.

If it weren't for these three professions, it would be a huge loss.

But they had no idea that Xiao Ran, the corpse stitcher, was different from the other corpse stitchers. The corpse was only secondary. As long as he could extract the scroll of "The King's Avatar" from it, he would make a fortune.

The coffin was quickly delivered to Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran paid the money promptly and put the corpse directly into the Yinbing Gourd.

After receiving the corpse, Xiao Ran's mind became more and more active, and he could not wait to go back.

So after waiting for the second corpse to appear, Xiao Ran directly pressed the bidding button and bid 30,000, but this time it seemed that someone also wanted to try their luck and followed suit by bidding.

After Xiao Ran competed with the other party several times, the price soared to fifty-three thousand. Seeing this, Xiao Ran simply gave up the bidding. After all, at this price, it was enough to buy it directly, and there was nothing special about the occupation of this corpse.

C-level profession, weapon master.

Basically, it has no particularly high value to Xiao Ran.

The money on hand is getting less and less, and a large amount of funds is needed to start the business of Amazing Pavilion. There is no need to waste it on a corpse.

Moreover, after obtaining this corpse, he has met the conditions to complete the upgrade of [Evil-Suppressing Order].

The most important thing is to go back as soon as possible and improve your strength.

"Walk slowly!"

The butler personally escorted Xiao Ran out of Penglai Tower. When Xiao Ran left, he glanced at the Changchun Club opposite Penglai Tower, thought about it, and decided to quicken his pace and rush back home.

When I got home, Okra had already prepared food for me.

Although promotion was just around the corner, Xiao Ran still suppressed his inner impulse, sat at the dining table, and slowly enjoyed the meal prepared by Okra.

Stewed beef brisket with tomatoes, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and a dish of shredded potatoes are all home-cooked meals. Accompanied by a large bowl of rice, Xiao Ran eats them with gusto.

Especially the tomato stewed beef brisket, it can be seen that Qiu Kui really put in a lot of effort to learn it. Professor Wu Man’s is also good. The beef brisket is soft and tender, and it breaks into pieces with a light bite of the teeth. It is covered with a thick layer of tomato soup, and the taste is unique.

After eating and drinking his fill, Xiao Ran drank a pot of tea to make sure his mind had completely calmed down before heading to the basement.

After closing the door and taking a few deep breaths, Xiao Ran threw Shanlong's body on the dissection table.

To become a smuggler, he only has one last step left, which is to master the art of suturing.

This may be difficult for others, but for me, I have basically put one foot on the threshold. With the special bonus of the real estate in Guling Street, I now have the level to enter the field. The next step is to just practice it once.

Putting the mountain dragon's head on the corpse and turning on the light and microscope, Xiao Ran picked up the needle and thread with one hand and activated the power of retrospection in his eyes. He could clearly see that the cut organs were restored to their original appearance under the power of retrospection.

With the power of retrospection, Xiao Ran's fingers were like electricity, and the needles and threads on his fingertips began to shuttle between nerves and tendons...
