Comprehensive building.

First floor office.

The pointing and whispering continued for five or six minutes before gradually subsiding.

Most people still firmly believe that the system is malfunctioning.

They even specifically asked the staff.

After receiving the reply, "We are contacting the relevant personnel and will get back to you later."

They became even more convinced of their ideas.

"It's a system error, I told you so."

How could a lowest-ranking D-level Awakened possibly be above S-level?

Similar messages spread like a virus.

Their initial shock subsided, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

It's really embarrassing if your rank isn't even as high as D-rank.

Ning Chuan watched from the sidelines without offering any explanation.

Judging from the staff's expressions.

He had already made up his mind about the higher-ups in Rockfire City.

Even the higher-ups of the Awakened Association already know about him.

"Objective achieved."

Ning Chuan didn't care about the opinions and speculations of others!

"Will praising me or criticizing me feed me?"

...

On the office desk.

"Alright, Mr. Ning Chuan."

The young woman in charge of registration was gentle, but there was a noticeable increase in respect.

And... a hint of admiration.

She was well aware of the rigor of the association's testing and registration process.

For nearly two decades, the crystal ball's feedback has never been wrong.

And that is precisely why.

She couldn't help but glance at the boy in front of her a few more times.

Tall and slender, with a sharply defined face, bright and piercing eyes…

The most striking thing was his blood-stained breastplate.

"This would probably require defeating hundreds of monsters."

The young woman thought to herself.

An image comes to mind: a solitary, resolute figure standing with a greatsword in hand.

Undeterred by hundreds of ferocious demons, they fought valiantly and bloodily.

Defeat all the monsters single-handedly.

"It's...too perfect."

Thinking of this, a blush crept onto her face.

Wait for the machine to indicate that the process was successful.

She handed Ning Chuan his Awakened Identity Card and his exclusive bank card with both hands.

"To you, Your Excellency Ningchuan."

The young lady smiled brightly and tossed a strand of hair with one hand.

"Well."

She paused, noticing the girl behind Ning Chuan.

He was looking at me with a sharp, cold gaze.

"Thank you. May I ask if the equipment trading hall is on the second floor?"

Ning Chuan looked up and asked.

He couldn't wait to see the enchanted equipment.

"Yes."

The young woman composed herself and her tone became calm.

Inside the lobby on the second floor.

This area houses four equipment trading merchants: the Awakeners' Guild, Blackrock Guild, Alliance Trading Post, and Rockfire Trading Center.

The rest are mostly individual business owners and black market merchants with established channels.

"Trading within the association will earn you extra contribution points, which can be used to redeem purchase discounts and upgrade your membership level."

In Blackrock Guild trading, the main focus is on high prices. Their equipment sales also emphasize high-end products, with a large number of enchanted items.

Aside from that, there's nothing particularly special about it.

The prices are average when trading within the league. However, it has the advantage of having multiple trading channels.

When it comes to the sheer number of equipment types, the Human Alliance is undoubtedly number one.

"The Rockfire Trading Center? What's that?"

Ning Chuan dragged a metal box full of spoils.

After analyzing and comparing the options in his mind, he quickly made a decision.

"A true man's ambition lies in all corners of the world; how can he bow down for money?"

Two minutes later.

"Hello."

"Excuse me, is this the Blackrock Equipment Store?"

Ning Chuan asked gently.

"Yes, how can I help you?"

A pretty receptionist, wearing black stockings and a bodycon skirt, approached gently and asked.

"Hey, I got some equipment in the secret realm and I'd like to sell it to you."

As he spoke, Ning Chuan opened the iron box and took out the spoils of war.

Of course, when he opened the box, he deliberately prevented the receptionist from seeing what was inside.

It wouldn't be good if the other party saw Uncle Noah.

"Uh, I'll have someone check it out and give you a quote later."

Looking at the huge pile of various equipment, and even weapons from other races.

The beautiful receptionist was momentarily stunned.

She led Ning Chuan and his companion to the VIP room and brought them coffee and snacks.

Please enjoy your meal.

"Thanks."

Ning Chuan crossed his legs and leaned back comfortably in the soft chair.

Through the glass, he saw the equipment for sale arranged in an orderly fashion outside the window.

"Come quickly, my enchanted darling."

Ningchuan, like a happy fly, rubbed his hands together.

Noah picked up a matcha dessert, took a bite, and her eyes sparkled.

Ten minutes later.

A tall man in a blue suit walked in, extended his hand, and spoke in a refined and approachable manner.

"Hello, I am the store manager."

"Hello, may I see the price now?"

Ning Chuan asked as he shook hands with Ning Chuan.

"Of course, I'm sorry to have taken up your time."

He handed over a list.

Ning Chuan examined it carefully.

Kentucky First Division, Silver Tier, 85% new, 16800.

The Lost Necklace of Guttus, Gold Grade, 70-80% New, 94578.

Small Fire Hammer, Silver grade, 99% new, 12678.

Jasmine Ring/Defense Ring/Mountain Demon Ring, Silver Grade, 80% New, Total Price: 62584.

……

Total number of equipment: 68.

Total price: 2588700.

"This price is quite reasonable..." Ning Chuan thought to himself, but remained calm on the surface and said:

"It's alright."

"If you are satisfied, I will now transfer the payment to the card number you provided."

The store manager smiled and took the brand-new bank card.

"I want to buy some equipment here."

Ning Chuan suddenly spoke as the store manager turned around.

"No problem, Rou Rou. Bring me the equipment details sheet."

The store manager was all smiles, eager for the boy to spend all his money.

"No, no, no, I want to try them on before I buy them."

Ning Chuan originally thought this was a very small request.

Unexpectedly, the store manager's expression froze, and he looked very embarrassed.

"What's wrong? Is it not okay?"

"Um, Mr. Ning Chuan. You must have heard of the 752 Blackstone Mall incident, right?"

The store manager offered a suggestion.

"Don't speak in a language I don't understand."

Ning Chuan sat back down in his chair and crossed his legs again.

This made the standing store manager look like a subordinate giving a report.

"What are you so proud of?"

The store manager suppressed his dissatisfaction and patiently explained:

In February 1775, a guest named Mo Xin arrived at the Blackstone General Mall in Dadu (Beijing).

He made the same request as you.

Logically, as long as the customer knows their size, we can provide well-fitting equipment without the need for them to try it on.

Even if you don't know your size, there are professional measurers available.

However, our staff did not understand, but they still did as instructed.

Furthermore, the equipment he tried on was not inspected.

And then... tragedy struck.

This awakener, named Mo Xin, has awakened an epic blessing.

The ability to bless can strip the enchantment effects of worn equipment.

This incident caused Blackrock Guild to lose over 100 million gold coins.

"Uh..." Ning Chuan scratched his head awkwardly.

He hadn't expected that a senior colleague had already accomplished what he envisioned.

He tried to find a topic of conversation: "So, what happened to Mo Xin afterwards? Did you find him?"

"I guess I've found it."

He is now the vice president of our Blackrock Guild and is over level 70.

He was the one who set the rule that we refuse guests the opportunity to try on equipment.

The store manager smiled slightly, quite pleased with himself.

asshole!

The ancestors cut down the trees, and the descendants are left to suffer under the scorching sun.

Ning Chuan cursed Mo Xin a thousand times in his heart.

"If you insist on trying them on, that's fine with me."

Under Ning Chuan's renewed hope, the store manager continued the story.

"All you need to do is show us the full information on your profession panel, including buff information."

This isn't difficult; my blessing is only visible to myself… Ning Chuan was overjoyed and was about to agree when…

The store manager turned to the receptionist in black stockings and said:

"Bring me the Clear Mirror. That thing can see hidden blessings and expose everything."

"Damn it, you're looking at me like that..." Ning Chuan had no choice but to change his approach:

"I'm afraid that's not very polite, Mr. Manager."

As everyone knows, Blessing is the most private secret of every Awakened One, and also their most unexpected trump card.

Your blatant attempt to pry into my secrets is extremely offensive.

The store manager bowed slightly: "I'm sorry, this is Chairman Mo Xin's request, and there's nothing we can do about it."

"Okay then. I won't show my panel."

But I can leave my bank card with you as collateral, including all my equipment.

You give me an enchanted piece of equipment worth less than the balance in my account.

You can check it on the spot after I try it on.

If there are any problems with the equipment I'm wearing, just consider it a purchase.

In this way, you won't lose out.

how?"

Upon hearing this, the store manager thought it was feasible but was unwilling to take the risk.

Ning Chuan knew that at this point, he needed to add fuel to the fire:

"Manager, your store has always been the most successful and profitable in Rockfire City."

To be able to run a store so well, you must be very outstanding.

I have always respected you!

I was born into a family of military commanders, whose generations have dedicated themselves to protecting humanity.

Hearing this, Noah, who had been eating snacks nearby, was stunned.

The little cake in my mouth almost fell out.

Then, she heard Ning Chuan's brother say something even more outrageous.

"This time, I am also following the family's tradition of adventure, engaging in close combat with monsters on the continent of Gutungs."

The equipment you see is what I obtained through fair and square battles, killing those ferocious monsters time and time again.

Noah thought of Ning Chuan and the greedy look on his face when he saw the goblin leader's equipment warehouse.

"I have faced bleakness in my life and I despise backstabbing and blackmail."

Noah recalled Ning Chuan's arrogance as he rode on the back of the rat queen.

"I don't want to dishonor the Yongyao family name, and I ask that you show me even the most basic respect!"

Ning Chuan finished speaking. He thought to himself, "If it still doesn't work..."

He then took out Noah's uncle from the iron box and claimed he was his ancestor...

Snapped!Snapped!

The store manager clapped his hands in gratitude and offered his hand:

"Thank you for your contributions to protecting us."

I grant your request!
