Chapter 1397 Coincidence?
Matilda didn't know how to respond for a moment and could only smile awkwardly.
The merchant in a colorful robe seemed to have confirmed it and nodded slightly.
"Since we're together, it's up to you to make the request."
"Want to buy or sell?"
"Neither..." Matilda responded in a low voice feeling a little guilty.
"Is the customer playing a trick on me?" The traveling merchant's tone darkened and he became a little irritable.
The three people present simultaneously felt a clear oppressive force coming from each other and coming straight towards them!
"Of course not!" Matilda waved her hands repeatedly, secretly ready to run away at any time:
"It's mainly because this is my first time meeting you, and I don't know what your characteristics are."
"Characteristics?" The merchant took two steps back to the elk and patted the two small bags on its back.
"I have rare treasures from all over the world to sell, and I also collect some good things of good quality."
“That’s my thing.”
"Can't you help kill people, or strengthen items after answering questions?" Matilda asked tentatively, with obvious disappointment in her eyes.
Just like when she faced Li Luo, she was unable to read the past memories of the Traveling Merchant of All Worlds.
Even if one secretly increases the power of justice to the maximum, the content that can be browsed is only nothingness.
So subconsciously,
Mrs. Octopus already regarded this traveling merchant as a newcomer who had just taken office.
Typical of someone who is not familiar with the business but pretends to be very experienced.
A new recruit!
So after asking the question, she didn't expect the other party to give a direct answer.
Eighty percent of them will make excuses.
never thought,
The traveling merchant sneered and responded directly:
"I can do everything that the red-clothed, yellow-clothed, and blue-clothed merchants can do."
"And, it's done better than them!"
“Similarly, my fees are much higher than theirs!”
"If customers need anything, they can just ask directly."
"Wow, you're so arrogant?" Matilda twitched the corner of her mouth, obviously not quite believing it.
He pointed at the shadow monster trapped in the death cage and said softly:
"Then help us get rid of the shadow monster in this cage."
The merchant turned around and seemed to stare at the Death Cage for a while, then said calmly:
"A King Monster about to ascend to Domination... rare, truly rare."
Promoted to Overlord?
Matilda's eyes narrowed, and she keenly caught this unusual keyword.
But on the surface, she still pretended to be relaxed, saying, "Oh, not bad, you actually recognized me," and continued:
"How is it? Can it be handled?"
"Of course." The merchant withdrew his gaze from the shadow monster and turned back to Matilda.
"But I usually quote the price first, to avoid the embarrassing situation where I complete the task but the customer is short of money."
"Let's just assume this monster is King-level. After I completely destroy it, I want all its drops, plus an additional, unique item of mythical quality that I've designated."
Hearing this, Matilda's face instantly turned dull, with one eye larger than the other.
I’ve seen lions open their mouths wide, but I’ve never seen a lion open its mouth so wide!
It's fine if I want the drops from the king-level monsters,
Do you want an extra unique item of mythical quality?
And it has to be him who specifies it?
After going around in circles for a long time,
Wouldn’t it be better to just grab it directly?
"How is it? Is this price acceptable to the customer?"
"Accept your sister!" Matilda roared silently in her heart.
There's no way they would agree to such an offer that's clearly a rip-off!
That is the only item of designated mythical quality!
It’s not the cabbage that’s sold everywhere!
"What is the only mythical item you want?"
Just as Matilda was about to refuse, Li Luo spoke first.
"Huh?! You don't really want to trade with him?" Matilda couldn't help but exclaimed:
“Not epic quality, not perfect quality either.”
"It's the only item of mythical quality!"
"And he has to designate it!"
"If you can't find it, won't you spend your whole life searching for a needle in a haystack in this vast universe?"
"Don't get excited." Li Luo raised his hand and pressed in the air, signaling Mrs. Octopus to stay calm.
Then he looked at the traveling merchant and said calmly:
"Let's ask what it is first, so we can have a better idea of what it is. Is it okay?"
"Of course, no problem." The merchant seemed to smile and said in a relaxed tone:
"The mythical item I want is called the '??? Pocket Watch'. It has a gold case and a pure black dial with no markings. It also has two silver-white hands, one long and one short."
"Under normal conditions, it is a mythical item. Only when certain conditions are activated will it possess the 'unique' attribute."
After these words were spoken, the three women fell silent at the same time.
Xu Xiao and Li Luo both thought of the mythical item that could hold power.
Not only is the item name exactly the same as on the original data panel, the pocket watch prefix is directly blocked by the power of rules;
Even the functions of the props described by the traveling merchants are exactly the same!
I just don't know whether the latter made a reservation and deliberately didn't say it, or was simply not aware that "specific conditions" refer to accommodating authority.
And Matilda the Octopus, having browsed through most of Xu Xiao's memories, learned that Li Luo just happened to possess this mythical quality item.
At this moment, I was shocked beyond words by this coincidence.
Is that traveling merchant also like Li Luo, able to discern the inner thoughts of his target silently?
Or is it simply an upgraded version that can read minds and also read past memories like Matilda?
What a coincidence,
Would Li Luo agree to the deal the next second?
The traveling merchant in colorful robes seemed to have anticipated such a reaction from the three people in front of him, and waited for a while without much patience.
Soon, he asked:
"how?"
"Will the guests agree to my terms?"
"Can you tell me why you want this unique item of mythical quality?" Li Luo suddenly spoke, his words lightly.
"No." The merchant refused decisively, without any hesitation.
"If the customer really wants to know, then just treat it as something I want to repurchase."
"After all, I not only sell, I also buy some rare things occasionally."
"Alright." Li Luo let out a long sigh, putting the final seal on the deal:
"We can't afford that price."
"As expected." Although the merchant's tone was somewhat disappointed, he still maintained the minimum respect:
"Besides this, do you want to buy or sell anything?"
"No." Li Luo shook his head and had no intention of ending the topic.
Instead, he continued:
"We can't afford to hire you to kill this king-level beast."
"But that doesn't mean we can't pay for the relevant intelligence."
"Make a quote, and then tell us how to kill it."
