Legend: One corpse-picking message per day

Chapter 110 The Mad Elite Cards! Attributes Skyrocket!!!
On the third floor of the Couple's Inn...

The legendary merchant and the honest merchant arrived at the same time...

The three of them came to deliver a card to Mr. He.

"Miss, the three of us tried to gather enough cards in the guild, but we still can't get all the cards we need," the legendary merchant said helplessly.

"What card?" Yu Jie frowned.

"Elite Carnivorous Plant Card, Common Falcon Card, Elite Falcon Card, Elite Wesleyan Bug Card, Giant Polygon Bug Card."

Hell Skeleton Elf Card.

All cards of Woma Lord, Difficult Woma Guardian cards, Hell Woma Guardian cards.

All treasure-type BOSS cards in Woma Temple.

Hard Elite Dung Beetle Card, Hell Elite Dung Beetle Card.

Hard Evil Pincer Bug Card, Hell Evil Pincer Bug Card, Hard Tentacle Dragon God Card, Hell Tentacle Dragon God Card, All Centipede Cave Treasure BOSS Cards.

I've collected all the remaining early-game monster cards. Since they're randomly unlocked, some of them have more than one, and some have several.

If we no longer need it, we can return it to you.

However, I did manage to collect five sets of ordinary monster cards from the Pig Cave and Zuma Temple.

However, for elite-level cards, only the Elite Red Boar card and the Elite Zuma Statue card are available; they are not available elsewhere.

Upon hearing this, both Yu Jie and Qing Hong blushed slightly.

The Hell Skeleton Elf Card and the Hell Worma Guardian Card were bought from He Sheng by the two of them.

Of course, they wouldn't mention it, they just felt a little embarrassed.

The legendary businessman, who knew the inside story, probably guessed what was on Yu Jie's mind, and sighed with a smile:

"Chixin, it's really not easy for you to collect so many elite cards this time."

As far as I know, many elite members have not been gathered.

"Miss only managed to collect them yesterday."

"The elite members aren't all gathered?" He Sheng was taken aback.

Immortal Qianqian laughed and said, "Of course, do you think elite cards are easy to collect?"

Don't be fooled by the occasional newbie getting elite cards; the problem is that many people will keep them until they unlock the entire collection and then use them.

After all, who doesn't want to be powerful?
So if you remove this group, there will be very few people left to collect.

Moreover, there are occasional instances of small-time investors buying up shares at inflated prices, disrupting market prices.

That portion of the middle-class and wealthy players took away a significant portion of the profits.

Of what we collected, how much is left?
Then, whoever has a good relationship with whom will help keep them... Even elites are hard to collect if you don't have a good relationship with them, you understand?

He Sheng nodded knowingly.

Surprisingly, these low-level elite monster cards, which don't seem expensive, are incredibly difficult to collect one by one, according to Qianqian's analysis...

Even if merchants keep buying, the problem is that with so many merchants, there's no guarantee that one of them won't raise the price.

The price increase is too much, and it doesn't seem worth adding 2 attribute points.

The main reason is that the higher-ups want to lower prices, as they don't want ordinary players to acquire a large amount of funds at once.

Therefore, the price fluctuates around that level, and everyone tacitly agrees that it's roughly the same price.

Merchants, whether from large or small guilds, all want to acquire goods at the best possible price.

There is no business without treachery!

The goal is to acquire items that aren't too expensive, while avoiding cutthroat competition.

Also, there weren't many of these elite monsters to begin with.

Elite monsters spawn once an hour!
Twenty-five routes...

How much can you produce in a day?
Of course, there are also these monsters on other maps, such as the Tower of Babel or the international routes.

Alternatively, you could purchase from international shipping lines, where you'll find global prices.

There will be more items, and more people will need them, making them more expensive and harder to buy.

But regardless, not many of these cards ended up in the hands of each merchant.

How can an elite with no connections gather all the necessary resources?
That's really too difficult...

Even money can't buy it!
"Anyway, we'll try our best to gather the rest for you," Yu Jie said with a smile.

"Haha, it's alright, this is already quite good. Thank you all." He Sheng beamed with joy.

He felt that this time he could greatly improve his attributes.

Moreover, he received an important piece of information.

Treasure bosses also have cards!
Great-grandmother, this one is even more advanced and difficult to handle!
Qinghong and Yujie might not be able to do it!
If I could occupy the Corpse King's Palace for a longer period of time and get my hands on the Treasure Monster Card, it would be absolutely priceless!

With that thought in mind, he asked curiously:
"Treasure bosses have cards too? They're already rare enough, and if the cards drop randomly and are randomly activated, that's just too much of a rip-off!"

Yu Jie smiled and explained, "Hehe, there are fewer treasure monsters on this side, but on the international routes, there are more treasure maps and more monsters."

Even so, it takes a lot of luck to light up the Treasure Monster card.

Each of these rare and powerful cards boasts a significant bonus.

"Oh."

He Sheng nodded in agreement.

He was secretly delighted.

Fortunately, the treasure of the Golden Corpse Emperor isn't in a higher-level map.

Then it is 100% successful.

If I could actually get a Golden Corpse Emperor card, that would be awesome...

Next, the deal!

He Sheng obtained a bunch of monster cards, the lowest valued at five million and the highest at fifty million gold coins, such as the difficult Skeleton Elf card.

The total value of all the cards is over one billion.

Then, He Sheng and Qing Hong divided the spoils.

He didn't want any of the ancient black iron or the extraterrestrial meteorite; there were four in total, which were worth 40 billion gold coins.

He didn't want the Mythical Blue Jade Necklace, which is worth 10 billion gold coins.

He Sheng took one of the two legendary items. The other item, a dzi bead necklace, was a bit more expensive, but He Sheng didn't bother to argue about it.

After all, others had collected so many cards for him...

Fashion fragments and lifespan crystals, half for each person.

The silver treasure map is worth 100 million.

The two didn't divide the other items.

Based on this calculation, Qinghong still needs to compensate him with 41 billion gold coins.

All I can say is that the Treasure Hell Evil Pincer Bug drops were absolutely amazing.

He Sheng didn't take all 41 billion gold coins; he took 21 billion and kept 20 billion to continue collecting cards.

The reason is that since you've gotten such good stuff as the Ten-Thousand-Year Black Iron, you have to give me some cards too.

Qinghong didn't refuse, but said that she would give him priority if she got one.

As for the cards from Yu Jie and Bu Mie Qian Qian, Qing Hong distributed them all, and the money was given to her in exchange for one yuan.

The three businessmen will divide it up.

In reality, Yu Jie and Immortal Qianqian were eyeing the Ten-Thousand-Year Black Iron, the extraterrestrial meteorite, the Silver Treasure Map, and a mythical piece of equipment!
They've already formed a group in private, whispering and discussing how to distribute these things!
They've collected so many elite cards, they're bound to want some benefit, at least a share of the loot. As for the price difference, that's something they'll negotiate among themselves…

He Sheng was unaware of these things...

All he knew was that he had suddenly become rich!
Previously, Yu Jie, Bu Mie Qian Qian, and Bai Yifei 01 had each invested one billion gold coins in him.

Now we'll get another two billion gold coins.

He has over five billion gold coins in his hands!

It seemed like a lot, but in his excitement, He Sheng quickly sobered up.

This amount of money is really nothing.

Upgrading to VIP alone costs 10 billion, and judging by the system's track record, the next upgrade will cost 100 billion.

That's a huge gap!
Moreover, there are the cards, costume fragments, and especially the crafting of divine artifacts...

Depend on!
A single artifact is worth 20 billion gold coins! He's truly impoverished beyond belief...

Huh?
Yes, fashion fragments shouldn't be too hard to get, right...?

He Sheng made a request for fashion fragments.

"Hehe, little brother... don't ask for too much..."

"I can't do it, sister..."

Qinghong shook her head and smiled bitterly.

Yu Jie chimed in from the side:

"Second brother, we've used a lot of our connections to get you these cards."

Fashion fragments are also in high demand; they can be combined to create better outfits, and nobody wants too many of them.

"Yes, you have to understand our difficulties... Unless you join the Undying Dynasty, I can think of another way." Undying Qianqian did not forget to tempt her.

“Join the Xuanyuan Dynasty, and I’ll give you elite treatment,” Yu Jie said, not wanting to be outdone.

"Don't bother, I already mentioned it to him, and he refused." Qinghong chuckled.

"Come on, let's have a drink together!"

He Sheng smiled and raised his glass, indicating he didn't want to discuss the matter any further.

He also considered whether or not to join a major guild...

The problem is that becoming an elite member of a major guild might not offer much freedom, and becoming an elite member of the opposing guild would likely mean taking on the responsibility of protecting their territory.

My family is all here...

As for security, Zhou Xiangbo, the lord of Beixiong City, seems to have some skills.

Qinghong and Yujie both mentioned him...

Overall, the lack of freedom and the numerous tasks involved are obstacles hindering He Sheng's transition to a major guild.

While casually eating, drinking, and chatting with the three women, He Sheng began to light up some monster images.

The first cards to be activated are naturally the early-game boss cards, which have a 100% success rate.

Previously, the only monster cards he had lit up were:
Elite Scarecrow Cards
Elite Multi-Hook Cat Cards
Elite Orc Card.

Elite Red Snake Card

Elite upright walking zombie card

Elite Skull Cards

Elite Armored Beetle Card!
Only seven elite cards have been activated.

He can now activate many things:

The regular carnivorous plant card, which wasn't available before, has now been added.

Elite Rake Cat Cards

Elite Toad Cards

Elite Forest Snowman Card

Elite Sika Deer Cards
Elite Chicken Card, Elite Orc Warrior Card.

Half-orc Warrior (Woma Forest BOSS) card,
Elite Poison Spider Card, Elite Scorpion Card

Elite Cave Maggot Card, Elite Cave Bat Card.

Elite Axe-Throwing Skeleton Card, Elite Skeleton Warrior Card, Elite Skeleton General Card.

Skeleton Spirit Cards, Hard Skeleton Spirit Cards
Elite Tiger Snake Card, Elite Yellow Robe Zombie Card
Elite Crawling Zombie Card, Elite Electric Zombie Card, Zombie King Card, Hard Zombie King Card.

Elite Sheep Card, Elite Sandworm Card

Elite Polypod Card, Elite Wolf Card.

A few regular cards that were missing before are now available.

These are all 100% successful!

As for the elite monsters in Woma Temple and Centipede Cave, He Sheng hasn't targeted them yet, and basically can't.

Because he had never fought them before, he had only fought the Hell Worm Guardian, the Hell Touch Dragon God, and the Treasure Hell Evil Pincer Bug.

Other elite monster cards are useless to him.

But first we have to get there. Maybe one day we can hit one and then we can light it up, right?
Next, He Shengxian lit up each of the ones he could.

This alone caused his attributes to skyrocket!
First, all elite monsters that can be instantly activated will have their attack and magic attributes increased by 2 points!

There are a total of 21 images here!
That means an increase of 42 points in attack magic!

Next up are the BOSS cards.

Skeleton Spirit Card: Attack/Magic 0-3 points

Difficult Skeleton Spirit Card: Attack/Magic 0-4 points.

The Half-Beast Warrior BOSS card in Woma Forest: Attack/Magic 0-3 points.

The Corpse King card deals 0-4 points of damage to the Demonic Path.

The difficult Corpse King card has an attack power of 0-5 points against the magic path.

These boss cards add a total of 19 points to attack and magic!

Adding the 42 points from the elite card, that's 61 points in attack, magic, and stats, plus the points from the four regular monsters that weren't activated before.

Even the common dung beetles at that Woma Temple are now lit up.

He gained 65 points to attack magic at once!

The remaining cards are the elite cards from Woma Temple and Centipede Cave, which are not needed for the time being.

There are also regular cards from Pig Cave and Zuma Temple, and a few elite cards.

These are not needed for the time being!

He hadn't fought the elite monsters in Woma Temple and Centipede Cave, so he couldn't unlock them.

The Zuma Temple and Pig Cave cards are only available because he's not level 30 enough to unlock them. Also, you need to run through three different map modes and kill monsters in each mode...

In short, the battle against elite monsters above Woma Temple and Centipede Cave is coming to an end.

It might not be possible to resolve this in a short time, or even a long time. It would require someone like Qinghong to stake out the location, but He Sheng doesn't have that kind of time right now.

In two more days, once I reach level 30, I can go and unlock all the regular cards in the Pig Cave and Zuma Temple...

Then I can get another wave of attribute points...

I wonder if I'll be able to defeat the Golden Corpse Emperor much faster now...

While he was lost in thought, he was just giving polite replies to the three women.

At this moment, Yu Jie suddenly waved her hand and cast a mental revelation on He Sheng.

Seeing that He Sheng was still at level 28, I was stunned:
"You're still at level 28?!"

Immortal Qianqian exclaimed, "Heavens, Second Brother, I thought you were 30! I'm already 32!"

"No way? You're only level 28?!" Qinghong was equally shocked!
Then the three of them exchanged a strange, knowing glance, and saw the same look in each other's eyes!

Immortal Qianqian took the lead with a smile and extended an invitation:
"Second brother, come with us to level up later. Look, we're both level 32, but your level is too low."

Don't worry, the two of us will guide you; we guarantee you'll level up like a rocket!

"Yes, we'll take you flying!" Yu Jie smiled charmingly, her face full of anticipation.

Qinghong then smoothed her hair, her eyes alluring, and said defiantly, "Little brother, come with me, and I guarantee you'll level up as fast as a rocket."

After the three women finished speaking, they all stared at He Sheng, waiting to see what his choice would be.

The three men's piercing gazes made He Sheng's head spin...

He felt an intense, invisible pressure...

It feels like no matter who I suggest going leveling up with, it's bound to cause a storm...

He really wanted to shout, "I fucking don't want to upgrade!"
But before he could finish speaking, he pointed at Qinghong and shook his head, amidst her joyful gaze and the furrowed brows of Yujie and Bumie Qianqian.

"Haha! Second brother, let's level up together!" Immortal Qianqian was so happy she almost jumped up.

Yu Jie also smiled brightly.

To everyone's surprise, He Sheng shook his head and said:
"I really have something to do, I don't have time to level up with you guys right now."

The three women were immediately stunned...
