Chapter 1254 Stop. I will be buying everything.
Liam ignored the pitying glances from the fairy manning the counter and the angry glares from Dante who kept cursing him under his breath for planning to gamble away his hard-earned money. His only attention was on the eggs as he examined them carefully, gauging the soul strength of each to the best of his ability. Though the system restriction of not being able to use any skills like Inspection did not seem to apply to his soul-sensing ability, he could still only somewhat sense them. However, this was more than enough.
After a while, Liam paused his examination and asked, "Can I sell the beast egg back to your shop? What is the buyback price for Rare-grade and Epic-grade?"
"Uhhh?" The fairy was slightly stumped but answered anyway. "Unfortunately, our buyback price will not match your cost price, Grandmaster." "1 million high-grade mana cores is too expensive for a rare-grade or epic-grade beast egg. The system shop selling price for such items is at most 1 million mid-grade mana cores. That too, only for special beasts that have dual affinities or other unique features."
"The rest would barely fetch 10,000 to 100,000 mid-grade mana cores." The fairy then quickly added, "Of course, we sell these at such a high price because there is a big chance of getting Legendary-grade and higher beast cubs. Someone has even gotten a mythic-grade beast youngling in the past. There are several such examples of lucky winners."
"I am sure Grandmaster's luck would also be excellent. I wish you the very best."
Liam chuckled. The fairy was not wrong. His luck was indeed quite good but it was not his luck that he was relying on at the moment. He didn't need any luck when he could read these eggs like open books.
Liam finished with the tray of beast eggs and shook his head. There were a couple of eggs in this collection that caught his eye but they were only epic-grade at most and he did not have the funds to waste on them just yet. Folloow current novÊls on nov/3lb((in).(co/m)
He moved onto the next tray of eggs. This was a more promising one, or at least that's what Liam felt at a cursory glance. The eggs all looked the same, with vibrant colors and intricate patterns, and some even sporting different varieties of shells ranging from soft to extra hard.
However, just as his eyes landed on the last tray of eggs, he shivered. At the center of the tray, a small white egg lay inconspicuously. It was a small egg like that of a chicken. It didn't have any intricate carvings or patterns and wasn't even colored.
But the soul strength emanating from it was unlike anything Liam had felt before. It was potent, pure, and incredibly refined, almost as if it was calling out to him, resonating with something deep within his being.
For a moment, Liam was stunned, his mind racing with the possibilities. This small, unassuming egg held a soul strength that suggested a beast of extraordinary potential.
He reached out, almost involuntarily, his hand hovering over the egg. Dante's eyes went wide. Everyone including Dante, Rey, and Madan could see that the egg was a very ordinary one.
"Grandmaster... are you sure?" Even the fairy gave him a pitiful look and tried to subtly give Liam another chance to refuse.
Dante, on the other hand, was not that subtle. "You have got to be kidding me!" The man was raging from top to bottom as his entire body trembled and shivered in anger.
But none of it meant anything to Liam as he immediately instructed the fairy. "I will buy this one too."
"You bastard!" Dante yelled.
Coincidentally, another voice also sounded at the same time. "Stop. I will be buying all the eggs. Pack it up for me."
