Chapter 470 Where is that log?

Barosik immediately looked towards the person who had just picked up that ring, and a familiar face caught his eye.

"You... you... Rakka, are you crazy?!" Barosik shouted hesitantly.

Rakka didn't pay attention to him; he frowned, then said to the seller: "For 40,000 gold coins, I can have this."

"Are you sure?" The salesperson asked softly: "It's most likely just an ordinary ring; you don't need to spend that much money to buy it."

Rakka shook his head: "I'm a crazy person; I don't do things the normal way."

After he finished speaking, he took out his ID card to pay. The seller nodded and smiled, immediately making the transaction.

Everything happened so fast that before Barosik could say anything, the transaction was completed.

Rakka immediately put the ring into the space bag without checking to see if the ring had any secrets inside.

When Barosik saw this, he immediately became angry; his face was red, and his hands were clenched so tightly that his nails stabbed into his palms, and a few drops of fresh blood flowed out.

Luckily, he was wearing a cloak that covered his body, so no one knew that he was angry; they could only see his body trembling slightly.

However, nothing could escape Rakka's eyes; he of course knew that Barosik was angry. However, so what?

This is the nature of this world, whoever is stronger, smarter, and has more resources can survive in this harsh world.

Rakka could also guess that Barosik seemed to have the ability to see hidden properties inside items that were sealed or hidden by a shell.

And Rakka could also guess that Barosik's financial limit was only 10,000 gold coins.

After all, Rakka had lived for more than 10,000 years, so of course he had to have some kind of deductive ability.

He noticed that... When competing to buy the stone earlier, when Rakka called out the price of 10,000 gold coins, Barosik gave up and did not continue to raise the price.

Also, when the seller said that the price of the ring was 40,000 gold coins, Barosik immediately tried to lower the price.

So... Rakka could guess that Barosik's financial limit was around 10,000–20,000 gold coins.

Rakka sighed in his heart. Fortunately, Lathel gave him a lot of gold coins, enough for him to comfortably buy a lot of things, so he was able to buy these mysterious items.

Otherwise, even if he knew there was something mysterious about these items, he still wouldn't be able to buy them.

Just like Barosik now, with only 10,000 gold coins, there was nothing he could do but watch Rakka buy the things Barosik wanted to buy.

"Huh!" Barosik snorted in contempt: "Hahahaha... you idiot, you were fooled by me again. That ring is just an ordinary ring; you were tricked by this bastard. 40,000 gold coins... hahahaha..."

Although Barosik was smiling on the outside, inside he was bleeding.

A 30% buff of fire elemental power means that even if it is sold to a fire magician or pharmacist enchanter, he can still earn a mountain of gold coins.

In the end... he could only watch as Rakka took that ring away.

Barosik gritted his teeth, as his eyes seemed to want to tear Rakka into a million pieces.

Rakka shrugged and said softly: "Am I stupid or not... You are the one who understands best, right?"

Barosik was startled when he heard that, thinking to himself: 'No way, he can't know about my hidden talent.'

Barosik thought in his heart of many different possibilities, and suddenly he thought of a method that he himself felt was smart.

He found a random store and looked towards an ordinary sword on the table. In fact, that sword is actually a normal sword, not a hidden item.

However, Barosik wanted to trick Rakka and immediately spoke up: "How much is this sword?"

"Ah!" The seller glanced at Barosik and said: "1,000 gold coins, no reduction."

Barosik glanced around, didn't see Rakka appear, and felt a bit confused.

'Could it be that... he also knows that this sword is just an ordinary sword, so he doesn't want to fight with me?'

'Okay, let's continue as planned.' Barosik thought to himself.

Immediately after that, he said to the seller: "It's too expensive, 700 gold coins; if you don't sell it, I'll leave."

"Okay! Take it." The salesman lost patience; his voice was filled with annoyance.

After paying, Barosik took the sword in his hand, caressed it as if it were an extremely precious sword, and then put it in his space bag.

However... Rakka still didn't appear.

Barosik was still not reassured; he once again went to another store, saw a beautiful necklace placed on the table, and asked.

"How much is this necklace?"

The seller smiled and said very friendly: "2,000 gold coins. Bro, if you want to buy it, I can give you a discount of 200 gold coins—so it's only 1,800 gold coins."

Barosik frowned, glanced around, still couldn't see Rakka anywhere, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"No need, too expensive." Barosik finished speaking and left, going to another store.

At this moment, his eyes lit up when he saw an extremely dirty black block of wood covered in mud.

However, through Barosik's 'Insight' talent, he could see an information panel appear right next to that wooden block.

[100,000 years Flame Wood: The strongest and rarest type of wood, burned for thousands of years, then buried in the ground for more than 100,000 years, finally becoming a '100,000 years Flame Wood'.]

[This type of wood can be used to make magic staffs for fire magicians, which can increase fire magic power by 100%.]

[Has 80% fire resistance. 60% Resistance to Beast Flame, 30% Resistance to Essence Flame.]

The wooden block was not large; it was only about 1.5 metres high and less than 1 metre in diameter. However, Barosik could already estimate how great its value was.

Its value is extremely huge. If everyone knew its true use, countless people would come here to compete for it.

Even kingdoms, empires, or the church will use all their strength to compete for this block of wood.

At that time, corpses will pile up into mountains, blood will flow into a river... many people will die just because of fighting over this small block of wood.

Barosik's body was trembling because he was too excited; however, he had to try to control himself.

He glanced around and couldn't find Rakka, but that block of wood was too precious; he didn't want to let Rakka get it.

In the end, Barosik decided to pretend to go see other stalls to distract Rakka.

After more than 30 minutes, after feeling that Rakka definitely would not appear, he immediately returned to the booth and quickly shouted: "That log... Heh?! Where is that log...?"
