LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 17: 12
Chapter 12 Big Purchase Chapter 12 Big Purchase
In the end, Xu Yi still did not "borrow" 80,000 faiths from Zheng Guihao to participate in the lottery.
Faith can be said to be the hard currency of the age of gods, and can be directly linked to gold that maintains its value for thousands of years.
Although Zheng Guihao's family has some assets, 80,000 faiths is still too much of a sum for them as high school students.
After all, even if we had a fancy meal at Lao He's place, plus the round-trip taxi fare for both of us, it didn't even cost 648.
The remaining faith points were not enough to draw another 648, so Xu Yi naturally set his sights on the Blue Star Mall in the God's Domain Login Cabin. Most people or gods on Blue Star would trade cards, props, skills, resources, etc. that they didn't need.
Opening the mall interface, the mall is divided into primary area, intermediate area, and advanced area, corresponding to the divine creatures, demigods, and true gods. Xu Yi was naturally assigned to the primary area directly.
The first thing that caught Xu Yi's eyes was a few top-level primary divine domain expansion cards, which could be used to expand an additional 5×5 square kilometer divine domain, or to expand the original divine domain to a size of 7×7 square kilometers with one's initial divine domain as the center.
For Xu Yi, the first choice is naturally to expand the divine domain to a scale of 7×7 square kilometers, and the second is to expand an additional 5×5 square kilometers of divine domain in the north.
The goal is to place the entrance to the underground research institute, three kilometers north of the center of the divine realm, deeper into the divine realm to ensure safety.
He looked away after just a moment's glance, for the simple reason that it cost 100,000 faith points.
Moreover, the Divine Realm Expansion Card can only be used when the player has 5 points of divinity, and Xu Yi currently does not have a good way to obtain divinity.
Divinity cards are in a state of being out of stock in the Blue Star Mall. They are often sold out as soon as they appear, and the attributes of the divinity cards that appear are uncertain, making it extremely difficult to find the right one for you.
Xu Yi's four initial divinity were inherited from his parents, which are 2 points of contract divinity from the devil and 2 points of mechanical divinity. With his current development, there are not many and precious ones that are suitable for him, including the flesh and blood divinity that can contaminate the field of life, the wasteland divinity that can contaminate the field of desolation, and so on.
One hundred thousand points of pure faith can condense a point of divinity. Judging from the faith contributed by the Blood Machinery Clan, what is condensed is either machinery or divinity of flesh and blood.
There were too many chaotic faith attributes, and it was difficult to condense them into a single divinity, and their value was far less than that of pure faith. This was also the reason why he asked Xu Qin for 20,000 faiths to support the consumption of the incarnation, and Xu Qin readily gave him 50,000 faiths.
These 50,000 are all mixed beliefs, and their value is definitely lower than pure beliefs that only contain two or even one attribute. In other words, the lottery system is not picky, otherwise Xu Yi doesn't know how long it will take to use it up.
Judging from Xu Qin's hesitant tone, he could only give muddy and chaotic faith. That meant that he was not able to give pure faith at the moment.
Xu Yi had heard rumors that pure faith could cleanse divinity. It seemed that his parents had not stopped their steps...
Scrolling down the interface, you will see biological resource cards and terrain resource cards. Just skip them as there may not be any cards suitable for you.
Just as he was about to skip it, he suddenly caught sight of a description of goose grass, a kind of grass that can survive in radiation areas. He could give it a try, as there were only some mosses in the wasteland.
If the goose grass can really survive, at least there will be an additional output. He spent 20 points of faith to buy a large bag of grass seeds. Xu Yiben thought that it was only 20 points of faith anyway, so if it didn't work, he would give it to Zheng Guihao. It was said that he had released several herds of bison to provide food for the harpies, so he would probably be able to use it.
The next category was weapons, which Xu Yi was more interested in. Xu Yi paid the most attention to firearms. After a quick glance, he actually saw a good item being auctioned.
A blue rare quality first-level knowledge card [M500 Revolver Modification Blueprint]. Different from the mainstream popular [Desert Eagle], the M500 revolver is the most powerful pre-cyber era firearm, but it requires three knowledge cards: [Revolver Blueprint], [M500 Revolver Modification Blueprint] and [.50 Special Pistol Bullet Blueprint] to produce.
And it can only hold 5 rounds, which puts it in a relatively useless position, so the consignor adopted a more pleasing way of hanging it up.
The auction rules are very simple. Within 48 hours, interested parties can increase the price as many times as they want based on the current price. Once the 48 hours are up, the item will belong to the last bidder.
Under these rules, there are two types of bidding strategies. The first is to bid at a price that is beyond the reach of other bidders to force them to leave. The second is to raise the price at the last moment when the countdown ends. Success depends entirely on courage and luck.
The current price is 9150 faith. Xu Yi is obviously not someone who can use the first strategy. He silently calculated the time and prepared to wait until the time comes back to try his luck.
There was not much time left. When Xu Yi saw the auction, there was only a little over an hour left.
After wandering around the spell area for a while, he spent 4,000 faiths to buy a rare quality [Resurrection] scroll and 2,500 faiths to buy a [Regeneration] scroll, then returned to the gun area to wait again.
At this time, the auction price had been increased to 9650 faith points, but it was still within Xu Yi's acceptable range, only slightly higher than the average price of blue cards.
As time gradually approached the last moment, Xu Yi's eyes were fixed on the constantly jumping time numbers. When the digit representing the seconds returned to zero and the two decimal places behind it were still rolling, Xu Yi's mind quickly touched the option of increasing the price twice.
Obviously, there were many people who had the same plan as Xu Yi. The price jumped rapidly and finally stopped at 10450 faith points.
The final bidder was shown as [Roast Chicken], which was exactly Xu Yi's mall nickname.
…
Just when Xu Yi was purchasing war supplies, west of the Wasteland Divine Realm.
A pistol stabbed out like lightning, piercing a striped hyena that was just adjusting its position and preparing to pounce.
It was as if a bullet had pierced directly through the heart. The hyena whimpered and died.
The spearman held a large solid wooden shield, slightly raised the pistol with the hyena corpse on it, and swung it heavily to the side, dropping the corpse aside.
Behind it, more than a hundred warriors of similar stature, some holding double axes, some carrying wooden sticks, approached one after another.
The crowd dispersed, and a hunchbacked, short man wearing a golden face mask, a set of golden wrist armor, arm armor, leg armor and other combined armor, and holding a large crossbow walked out. It seemed that he was the leader.
It looked at the obsolete factory in the distance, and suddenly spread its arms and shouted in a strange language: "I smell the breath of humans, the humble human race again! Warriors, follow me, abandon their bodies on the roadside, and fill our fortress with their treasures, follow me, charge!"
Hundreds of roars rose into the sky, responding to it enthusiastically, and the owners of these roars all had curved fangs and scarlet eyes...
