Qin Ruo shuddered.
”What a potent poison!!”
If people came into contact with it and were not cured within three seconds, those with low HP were likely to be killed. In that case, it was much better to use it on a Boss. One hit would cost it 2,400 HP points in half a minute. Not to mention, it would weaken 10% of its status…
It appeared that Slayer's Heart never imagined that there would be such a dreadful poison inside an ordinary bottle. He was instantly enraptured.
”Hah… it is indeed the eye of the Gorefiend Spider Demon. This is just great. Coupled with the teeth and ear owned by Violet, as well as the Spider Silk and Poisonous Sac in our captain's possession, all the items needed to unlock the map are here!”
(Various hidden quests required specific tools to trade for a map. Based on the given map, a player would enter an area following the instructions. It is the same as entering a dungeon)
Burning Rose's voice brought everyone's attention to the eye that had been appraised.
The Gorefiend Spider Demon's eye was an item required for the lower third floor of Aricus Underground Ruins (they had to collect the Gorefiend Spider Demon's eye, teeth, ear, Spider Silk, and Poisonous Sac to trade for a map of the ruins' third floor chamber).
Slayer's Heart grinned again, pleased with his good luck.
”This isn't your credit to claim, don't forget about our new team member. If we hadn't bumped into him, we could've been killed by the Gorefiend Spider Demon…” Burning Rose reminded him aptly.
”Don't worry, I won't forget his share.”
Upon hearing Slayer's Heart, Qin Ruo became nervous all of a sudden.
He quickly said, ”Please, don't! You've helped bring me one whole level up. How can I take anything else from you?”
Although he was very tempted by the loot, when he thought about it, he had been following them around that day, and leveled up, which was already really fortunate. How could he ask for his share?
”It's not ours, it's everyone's. Moreover, you contributed a lot during the battle with the Boss, and rescued Little Apple as well as Little Arrow. If I took away your share, how could I continue to be the captain?” Slayer's Heart joked, shutting out whatever Qin Ruo was going to say.
He then said in a serious manner, ”The value of the bottle is undetermined, but it's a pity to sell such a good item. I plan to make it a not-for-sale item, keeping it for a fight with a Boss in the future; as for the necklace and sword, it is estimated to be 18,000 gold coins; any opinions?”
Burning Rose, iLittle Arrow, and Little Apple nodded in unison, tacitly assenting to the party leader's allocation.
Qin Ruo, on the other hand, was looking at the whole situation in confusion. He did not know Slayer's Heart's intentions for saying this until Burning Rose explained it by his ear. Only then did he realize…
It turned out that this team of five had set up a rule. Each time items were acquired, trash equipment would be put on sale in the market, and the gold coins earned would then be used for equipment repair, potion procurement, Magic Scroll production, as well as rare raw material purchase; whereas equipment that could be sold at a good price, and were unusable by anyone in the team would be handed to Slayer's Heart. He would put them up for internal sale in the can. It would be sold once the price offered was higher than the estimated price. The money earned would be equally divided among the team members.
After a minute, Slayer's Heart informed everyone that the necklace was sold at 13,000 gold coins; and the sword was sold at 12,000 gold coins. Altogether, it was 7,000 more than the estimated 18,000 gold coins…
Sheeesh!
Qin Ruo gasped in disbelief. He could not believe it.
A Tier 4 Violet equipment could be sold at such a scary price? It seemed like it was way worse than his Gold equipment!!!
”So, each of us can get 5,000 gold coins… Qin Ruo, stop dreaming. Keep this, it's yours. It's not every month that we get to acquire such good equipment.”
”That's right, don't waste it!”
”Or is this too little for you, huh?” Burning Rose and the others urged. In the end, due to everyone's ”coercion”, Qin Ruo accepted the huge amount of money with a somewhat perturbed and excited feeling. Looking at the over 13,000 gold coins in his backpack, he could not help but pinch his arm…
Phew, fortunately, not a dream.
After confirming that the pain he felt was real, Qin Ruo suddenly thought of something.
”Oh yea, I received an equipment today. Could you help me check how much it costs?” he said as he took the Galewind Wolf King Boots out from his backpack.
Ever since the captain mentioned the prices of the two Violet equipment, Qin Ruo had a feeling that the value of this Gold equipment was perhaps higher than he had expected… like, a lot higher!
