Chapter 110: Chapter no: New Garden Residential Area
Translator: 549690339
Hearing the cacophonous voices in the radio channel, Song Jian touched his chin and thought to himself, “Isn’t New Garden Residential Area the place where I first entered the game? The Count Qian Dahai mentioned that area, right? 1 remembered, 1 was in building No.6, quite near the No.9 building the count talked about…”
Thinking of this, Song Jian felt his blood boil. One thousand Doomsday Coins were just a modest sum, but the Skill Book “Sword Finger” had priceless value regarding the Swordsman Immortal profession.
The radio channel remained busy for quite a long while before it finally quietened down. Song Jian could hear that many players were gearing up to venture to Zombie City, seeking the blue jade necklace Count Qian Dahai mentioned;
“Seeing so many people risking their lives, the Swordsman Immortal profession must be really powerful!” Song Jian commented, stroking his chin;
“My current main mission is to acquire a combat profession, if I could only get the Swordsman Immortal profession…”
Having thought this, Song Jian quickly decided to head towards the New Garden Residential Area to find the blue jade necklace Count Dahai had described;
“Master, welcome back, I have some news about the Tree Shepherd combat profession that I’d like to…” Felix began to awake slowly as he sensed Song Jian’s return;
Before Alex could finish speaking, Song Jian’s figure vanished from the mansion;
Watching Song Jian’s departing figure, Alex felt kind of speechless. After a moment, he sighed and slowly closed his eyes.
The New Garden Residential Area was only separated from Song Jian’s mansion by Camel Square. Now, during broad daylight, there wasn’t a single beast on the square. Song Jian strolled across the square without effort, arriving at the New Garden Residential Area;
Entering the dilapidated grand gate of the New Garden Residential Area, Song Jian muttered under his breath as he was looking for building N0.9, “Building No.9,16th floor, East Room, the password is ****•■
Count Qian Dahai revealed all the information on the radio. Whoever managed to hand the blue jade necklace over to him would be rewarded.
There were indeed quite a few players gathered in the New Garden Residential Area. In a run-down pavilion at the centre of the area, Song Jian even saw five or six players setting up their stalls;
All of them had a black cloth laid out in front of them, showing all sorts of items;
Spotting Song Jian’s approach, excitement sprang to their faces.
“Bro, come and have a look. I’ve got some good stuff here…” someone called. The others also looked hopeful.
Song Jian cast a cursory glance. They were all pretty low-grade Zombie materials;
“How much for the Zombie’s nucleus?” Song Jian casually pointed at one of the Zombies’ nuclei and asked.
“This? Its drop rate is quite low. Ten Doomsday Coins for one,” a young man answered, rubbing his nose;
“That’s too expensive. I’ll give you two Doomsday Coins for each one, but I’ll take them all,” Song Jian stated;
“Just two Coins? That’s too little. 1 had to kill fifty or sixty Zombies to get these…” The young boy hesitated;
“If you sell it to the vendors, they won’t give you more than one Doomsday Coin. I’m already offering double. If you’re not selling, I’ll go,” Song Jian pretended to leave;
“Hey, sir, 1’11 sell you mine at two Doomsday Coins each!” A man in his thirties nearby hurriedly stopped Song Jian;
Song Jian glanced at the man’s stall. He only had three Zombie nuclei; he pulled out six Doomsday Coins and handed them over;
“Deal! Take them!” The man happily took the Coins and gave the Zombie nuclei to Song Jian;
“Hey, Uncle Wang, what are you doing? 1 was just negotiating with him…” the young man protested.
“Look at the level of this brother. Can’t you see?” Uncle Wang sneered at the young man, “This thing is virtually worthless. The lowest-level Zombies drop it. What’s it worth? Look around, who doesn’t have a few Zombie nuclei in their stalls? When you have too many, the price drops. We should be grateful that this man’s offering double,” Uncle Wang explained;
“Yeah, but this thing is rare…” the young man grumbled quietly;
“No matter how rare, there are so many low-level Zombies here…” Uncle Wang advised;
“Zombie nucleus. Two Doomsday Coins for each one. I’ll take as many as you’ve got. If you’re selling, trade with me,” Song Jian said indifferently;
Players were not yet aware that they could gamble using Zombie nuclei at Li Ke’er’s casino, where a single nucleus went for a hundred Doomsday Coins;
“Alright, big brother, I’ll sell it to you for two Coins!” The youth named “Dog” seemed a bit shy, but he handed over the eight or nine Zombie nuclei from his stall to Song Jian;
“Good, junior. In the future, you can keep all your Zombie nuclei for me. I’ll come here often to buy them” Song Jian laughed;
Soon, everyone there sold all their Zombie nuclei to Song Jian;
“My friend, could you tell us what use a Zombie’s nucleus could be?” A young man in his twenties, with twinkling eyes, asked Song Jian;
“Sorry, that’s a trade secret,” Song Jian lightly replied;
After that, Song Jian also purchased some low-level cooking and alchemy materials, each going for two Doomsday Coins. After a round, Song Jian continued towards the ninth building;
“Hey, guys, what do you think this guy wants with all these Zombie nuclei?” peering at Song Jian’s back, the young man asked in a low voice;
“What could he possibly do with them? You can’t eat them, and they’re not worth much when sold. Even the lowest-level monsters drop them. What could they possibly be used for?” Uncle Wang disdainfully answered: “You better focus more on leveling up. Don’t try to be too crafty or you might lose your life if anything went wrong…”
“Uncle Wang, don’t worry! I know what I’m doing,” the young man waved dismissively;
Seeing Song Jian turn a corner and disappear, the young man quickly packed up his stall and chased after him;
“This lad is seeking his own death again!” Uncle Wang spat on the ground, looking disdainfully;
“Uncle Wang, don’t bother about him. He’s always up to some tricks. One day he’ll hit a roadblock!” someone nearby advised;
“Mmph, if it weren’t for all of us being newcomers, who’d care about him?” After a moment of silence, Uncle Wang packed up his stall, “1 can’t just leave him be. I have to watch over him. If he provokes that expert, he will surely be in deep trouble!”
Saying that, Uncle Wang also chased after Song Jian;
