The weapon refiner is not doing her job properly

Chapter 277 Blood Sun (24)

Three days later, Yin Leng had collected a thousand crystals. He was so exhausted that he cried out for help. He had never been this dedicated to a task assigned by Teacher Ren Bing. He was risking his life for a spatial ring.

During his break, he talked dejectedly about buying a spatial ring.

Lei Qingya also had a spatial ring, just a different model, and he wanted to know how many star coins she spent to buy it.

At his current pace, it will be difficult for him to collect so many purification crystals before leaving the contaminated area.

Lei Qingya, who had been in the team for three days, was speechless after hearing his explanation. "No, you need crystals, isn't that easy to solve?"

Yin Leng pressed further, "How do you solve this?"

Lei Qingya glanced at his clothes, thinking he wished he could bring all his wealth with him. He must be someone who values ​​money, but alas, he's a little fool.

“We have Lena here, so we don’t need purification crystals much. Players have extras, so why don’t you consider buying them at a low price?”

Yin Leng had certainly thought about it, but he was oblivious and straightforward. "Su Ninglong said that one purification crystal is worth three thousand star coins. If I buy crystals at a low price, will she think I'm being opportunistic and then overcharge me?"

Lei Qingya, who already owned many businesses, couldn't help but laugh at Yin Leng's foolish idea.

"Hahaha, have you forgotten? Su Ninglong is rich. She doesn't care about star coins. She clearly cares more about purification crystals. No matter what method you use, the more crystals you collect, the happier she will be." Lei Qingya understands Su Ninglong. The little girl loves all kinds of materials. Purification crystals are obviously useful to her, and she is happy to collect more through roundabout methods.

Yin Leng slapped his forehead, realizing he had fallen into a cognitive trap.

Old Gu said enviously, "I don't have that much capital, otherwise I could help collect them too."

“That’s easy. You can buy them at a low price, write IOUs, find out the other party’s identity, address and bank card number, and then pay me and Su Ninglong after you log out of the game,” Lei Qingya said. “Since Su Ninglong likes crystals, buy more.”

Lei Qingya also knew the uses of purification crystals; they were much better than quasi-spirit stones, containing rich spiritual energy that made replenishment much smoother.

It might become a substitute for a quasi-spirit stone!

Lei Qingya did not intend to tell them his true thoughts, attributing all the reasons to Su Ninglong's special identity as a weapon refiner.

Coincidentally, her thoughts coincided with Su Ninglong's: if you like something, buy it; if you like something, acquire it.

Spirit stones have many uses, just like the Eye of the Stars; if we were to reveal them, their price would only increase.

Old Gu had witnessed what it meant to be rich and powerful. He didn't mind helping for free; leveling up and fighting monsters could easily lead to injuries, so he might as well find something to do.

Yin Leng and Lao Gu hit it off immediately. Su Ninglong had helped them a lot, and their return was nothing, but it was still a token of their appreciation, even though Yin Leng actually only wanted to buy a spatial ring.

Lei Qingya and Lao Gu had exchanged contact information a long time ago and would chat for a while when they had nothing to do.

At this point, she also learned that Lao Gu had been forced to accept a mission in the Star Alliance, and she was a little worried about Lao Gu's situation.

"The Viper should recognize you. If you offend him, how can you possibly stay in the Star Alliance?"

“I don’t plan to stay here. I wrote my resignation letter after accepting this task. I was afraid of being silenced, so I had no choice but to agree to come here.”

Old Gu didn't know why his career had been so bumpy. "Don't worry too much, I have some savings, enough to live on. I won't be so poor that I have to rely on welfare."

"I find your superpower quite interesting. How about I introduce you to a job? It's not a Star Alliance company, would you like to give it a try?" Lei Qingya's cheerful voice easily won people over. She was not arrogant and her personality was even more easygoing than Su Ninglong's.

Old Gu's heart pounded faster and faster; he felt his chance had come—a chance to become a "Su Party member."

Hunters also form groups, one of the most famous being the "Su Party," which is what these nobodys call themselves in private.

The people in Su Ninglong's faction are very free. They are a group of like-minded people who get along like friends and there is no distinction between boss and underling.

The group admin occasionally gives out various perks, which inevitably makes outsiders envious.

He tried to remain calm, saying, "I don't know what kind of job it is."

"Intelligence-related tasks include helping to collect news information, policy changes, and information about the people Su Ninglong is interested in, such as where they go and what they do on weekdays."

"Like a private investigator?"

"Not really. As an assistant, you need to pay attention to any unusual behavior from people involved in the relevant intelligence."

"Will you be working alongside Mr. Xing?" Xingyuan is a role model among all the mentors in the past.

“No, it’s Song Liu from the Song family, Song Hu’s cousin. He’s short-handed and needs someone not particularly noticeable to go to Kaibi Star for a few months.” Lei Qingya subconsciously touched his nose. “I’m not saying you’re not noticeable, but I think you’re suitable.”

Knowing his own qualifications and appearance, Lao Gu didn't mind. "Can I ask about the salary?"

"Generally, it's around eight thousand. Employees have the same benefits as others. For business trips, the amount depends on the workload, and can reach up to several hundred thousand. I'm not making empty promises, but only a few can earn several hundred thousand star coins. Even Song Liu, as the intelligence chief, sometimes doesn't earn that much. It depends on the business revenue."

Old Gu secretly calculated his income in his mind. It was several hundred thousand a month, with a minimum of eight thousand star coins, which was better than staying in the Star Alliance now.

That bastard from Star Alliance, he promised a monthly salary, but cut it in half when it arrived. He even used psychological manipulation tactics, saying that he wasn't capable enough and his performance was mediocre, so he couldn't enjoy a high salary.

Old Gu touched his face and said, "To say I'm ordinary wouldn't be quite right; my features are quite regular."

However, it paled in comparison to the beauty of the surrounding women.

Especially when placed among a group of handsome men and beautiful women like Suninglong.

I should be able to adapt to intelligence work.

He didn't do this job before because the income was less stable than that of a web hunter. If someone was willing to offer a high base salary, he wouldn't hesitate at all.

"Okay, I'll go."

Lei Qingya: "No need to wait for resignation?"

"I've been gone for half a year. They haven't even paid my salary. How could I not resign?" Old Gu rubbed his hands, happy to be back in the Star Alliance's embrace. Although he wasn't part of the Star Alliance, he was still a subordinate branch, managed by Su Ninglong's people.

However, Lao Gu also had concerns. He lacked confidence and asked again, "Is this job really suitable for me?"

"It suits you very well." Lei Qingya really thought it suited him. Old Gu's presence was naturally weak, especially when he wasn't dressed up. If he had the concealment talisman given to him by Su Ninglong, it would be difficult for anyone in the world to notice him.

His superpower lies in his speed; no one is more suitable than him to gather intelligence on Planet Kabi.

After agreeing to switch jobs, Lao Gu became even more enthusiastic, and his desire to acquire purification crystals from players soared to unprecedented heights. He had to leave a good impression on the boss.

Lei Qingya's offer was to exchange one for up to 500 star coins.

500 is the upper limit, not the specific acquisition price. According to Lei Qingya, they will buy as many as they can, a monopolistic acquisition.

The price of such acquisitions will increase as time goes on. Considering that Yin Leng also needs it, Lao Gu thought for a moment and asked Yin Leng if it would be acceptable to buy it at a price of 200 star coins at the beginning.

"Great!" Absolutely! Yin Leng was in a state of excitement. Three thousand purification crystals only cost a few hundred thousand, which he could easily afford.

A spatial ring worth millions suddenly seems worthless; just thinking about it makes me feel guilty.

Old Gu: "Let's focus on your quantity first. Once we've collected that, we'll go all out."

"Okay!" Yin Leng was moved by Lao Gu's loyalty and kindness. He called him brother and vowed to make money and spend money together in the future.

The EQ-savvy Lao Gu just smiled at this, thinking to himself: He would never give Yin Leng money to spend; he hasn't spent enough of his own money yet!

In less than two hours, Lao Gu and Yin Leng had set up a small stall.

Players were shocked to learn that someone was buying purification crystals with star coins.

"How exactly will the acquisition proceed? Is there a risk of being scammed?"

"With Lei Qingya of the Star Alliance and Ren Bing's apprentice as guarantors, we'll issue an IOU. We'll report it to Su Ninglong, and she'll find someone to reimburse it. It's just that the purchase price isn't high, only 200 star coins."

"Tsk, 200 isn't high? Anyone who's saved up a few hundred yuan would be rich. You have to understand, this is a game world, not reality."

"That's true. The items that Ray Hunter led the acquisition of must be quite good. Wouldn't they fetch a higher price outside? Selling them like this would be a huge loss."

"You don't know this, but Lei Hunter was originally a procurement officer working for Su Ninglong, specializing in acquiring materials. So purification crystals were probably one of the materials he acquired. If you're worried that the price outside is higher, then keep some."

"I plan to keep a few for emergencies, and sell the rest."

"Wait for me, I'm going too. If the acquisition stops, we'll miss a rare opportunity to make a fortune."

"I'll call my teammates and we'll come right away. Let's kill as many monsters as possible. Anyone want to clear some monsters further away? Let's work together!"

Kong Lingzhong was drinking the calming tea given to him by Su Ninglong when his secretary reported to him about the unusually quiet behavior of the venomous snakes recently.

With Tong Zi joining, Kong Lingzhong wasn't too worried about the poisonous snakes, seeing the players' hurried and murderous appearance.

He asked, "Are there any particularly troublesome bosses to deal with in the next couple of days? Or has a mind controller launched a large-scale attack?"

"No. But they must have gone to kill monsters to purify the crystals." Seeing Kong Lingzhong's confusion, the baby-faced secretary added, "The Thunder Hunters want to buy purification crystals, 200 each."

Kong Lingzhong: "Besides purifying corruption and replenishing supernatural abilities, what other use is this thing? Outside, it's only suitable for hunters to use."

Baby-faced secretary: "Look at what you're saying, if hunters can use it, it proves that spirit users can use it too. Should we collect some as well?"

"It's resistant to erosion, but not to pollution, so it's a bit of a double-edged sword." Kong Lingzhong thought for a moment and decided to take some as well. He ordered his baby-faced secretary to carry it out, requiring that the purchase price be the same as that of Yin Leng and his group.

The baby-faced secretary gave a thumbs up, "Boss is brilliant. We're going to join the Star Alliance soon, so we can give it to Su Ninglong as a gift."

"Why give Su Ninglong a gift?" Kong Lingzhong's ears were burning. Was his secretary being too presumptuous?
"No, when did I say I wanted to join the Star Alliance?"

The baby-faced secretary clicked her tongue and said, "Of course, it's because the Star Alliance is full of elites. Before, the boss couldn't find anyone to spar with, but it's different once he joins the Star Alliance."

"Don't talk about giving gifts to girls anymore." Kong Lingzhong coughed twice, signaling him to stop talking nonsense.

"Yes, yes! I'm not giving any gifts, I just want to return a small favor by helping with the acquisition." The baby-faced secretary saw through Kong Lingzhong's insincerity. It was only because Su Ninglong was really too young that she had suitors circling around the Twin Towers twice.

Having finally managed to get that arrogant and conceited Kong Lingzhong to show any signs of interest, as his close secretary, she couldn't let him remain a lonely man forever, so of course she had to arrange for him to have easy access to her.

The acquisition of crystals is in full swing, and the acquisition stalls are crowded with people every day.

In just five days, after learning that purification crystals could be exchanged for money, the players displayed unfathomable potential.

Yin Leng and Lao Gu have written hundreds of IOUs, and the amount of star coins to be paid is in the tens of millions.

too crazy!

Meanwhile, Su Ninglong is in the final stage of fusion. The construction of the mountain path incorporates many formations, making it very troublesome to re-refine it.

But Su Ninglong was patient. For the spiritual vein to be inexhaustible and sustainable, she could not back down no matter how troublesome it was.

Suddenly, a wisp of dust fell from the ceiling of the room.

Su Ninglong quickly moved the refining furnace aside, warily watching the upstairs, her divine sense probing the magical artifacts that were fusing inside.

Seeing that nothing had changed inside, he breathed a sigh of relief, having almost wasted all his efforts.

The building is reinforced by spiritual practitioners every month, and the room she chose is protected with talismans, so it shouldn't be so easy for dust to fall off.

As her divine sense spread out, Su Ninglong saw the culprit: the venomous snake who lacked any sense of public morality.

He's outside shouting and blaming others, accusing Su Ninglong of setting a trap to harm the hunters of the Star Alliance.

One of them had become an idiot and was dragged here by a poisonous snake, while the other two were imprisoned by Tong Zi.

He could only rally the other players, poison and control them, and gather more than a hundred people, hoping to use their numbers to demand the hunters from the Star Alliance.

Those people knew some of the Star Alliance's secret plans and couldn't fall into the Star Alliance's hands.

The venomous snake gritted its teeth, secretly resenting Wu Xingyi's men as a burden.

We can disregard Lao Gu, the traitor; he was a peripheral figure who only knew some information about this operation.

The other hunters were all core members of the academy, and they had agreed to wait until they met up with the four-star hunters before taking action. Since I wasn't there, they decided to do things their own way.

The venomous snake had no choice but to resort to this last resort.

He'll force Tong Zi to take action, and if they fight, innocent people will be affected, making Tong Zi suffer the consequences.

"Pah!" If she hadn't been tied up, Su Ninglong would have been prepared to slap the other person a few times. There couldn't be anyone more shameless than her in the world.

Especially since this person is an enemy.

Su Ninglong held back for a moment, then withdrew her divine sense. Refining the weapon was more important right now, and she couldn't afford to make any mistakes, as she didn't have any backup materials.

Muttering to herself that she absolutely had to succeed in this weapon crafting attempt, Su Ninglong immersed herself back in the crafting process, steadily outputting spiritual fire.

The viper called out for a while, but no one answered. "I have warned you repeatedly to hand over Su Ninglong and the hunters of the Star Glory Alliance. Don't blame me."
