Millions of gold coins!

Chen Ming walked quickly toward the hunter's cabin, guided by his memories.

Along the way, the streets were lined with players.

"Step right up, don't miss out! Selling small HP and MP potions at a low price. Only 9.9 a bottle. You heard me right, not 999, not 99, but 9.9!"

"Paradise Lost Guild is recruiting! Great benefits and treatment. Veterans will personally guide you after joining."

"Freshly made Stray Wild Chicken Buns! Maybe you've been pecked by a Stray Wild Chicken before—now's your chance for revenge! Fragrant Stray Wild Chicken Meat Buns, three gold coins each. Not only are they delicious, but they also restore health."

"Any handsome guys want to party up? 36D big healer looking for a group."

"High-speed leveling group about to depart. Three looking for one. Need a Mage level 2 or higher. We leave as soon as we're full."

...

Noisy voices echoed in his ears.

It had to be said that the human race was truly a highly adaptable species.

After the confusion and fear of the first day, many people had already accepted reality by today and were actively living in this game world.

Chen Ming arrived before the hunter's cabin from his memories.

An old hunter dressed in animal skins was skillfully processing a wild boar carcass in front of the cabin.

[Hunter Randall Lv.10]

Chen Ming pushed the door open and walked straight in.

"Get lost, player from another world."

Randall had an exceptionally fiery temper.

Clearly, quite a few players had 'harassed' him before.

Chen Ming wasn't annoyed: "Lord Randall, I have news regarding the Lair Lizard Lord. Are you sure you want me to leave?"

The moment Chen Ming mentioned the Lair Lizard Lord, Randall stopped what he was doing and hurried over to Chen Ming, saying excitedly, "You have news of that beast?"

"Tell me, where is it? I'm going to slaughter it!"

A few years ago, a beast tide had broken out in Silver Dragon Village.

Randall's daughter had died at the hands of the Lair Lizard Lord during that beast tide.

From then on, killing the Lair Lizard Lord had become Randall's obsession.

"With all due respect, given your strength, you might not be its match," Chen Ming said bluntly.

Randall's expression froze. That stung, kid—why do you have to be so brutally honest?

"Speak. What must I pay for you to bring back the Lair Lizard Lord's corpse for me?"

Randall took a deep breath and asked.

"I heard you have a special item that can reduce skill cooldowns..."

"Fine, I agree."

Before Chen Ming could even finish, Randall nodded and agreed immediately.

"I'll also give you an extra treasure chest. As long as you can bring back that beast's corpse to prove it to me."

As Randall's voice fell, a system notification appeared before Chen Ming.

[You have successfully triggered the quest — Randall's Revenge.]

[Randall's Revenge]

[Quest Details: Kill the Lair Lizard Lord (silver grade Boss) and bring its corpse back to Randall.]

[Quest Rewards: Cooldown Stone (gold grade), Lucky Treasure Chest (silver grade), Experience +5,000, Gold Coins +10,000.]

[Failure Penalty: Randall's Favorability -35 points.]

[Time Limit: 72 hours.]

...

After accepting the quest, Chen Ming got up and headed out of the Novice Village.

Just as he reached the village entrance, a voice suddenly called out to him.

"Calamity?"

Chen Ming turned to look.

A large man in black armor was walking quickly toward him.

[Dragon Soul - Tie Bu Shan]

"It's him?"

Chen Ming recognized the man's identity.

The person in charge of the Dragon Soul Guild in Silver Dragon Village, and also one of the future top 100 powerhouses of Blue Star.

"I'm Tie Bu Shan, the person in charge of the Dragon Soul Guild here in Silver Dragon Village," Tie Bu Shan introduced himself.

"Do you need something?"

Chen Ming spoke calmly. As a citizen of the Dragon Kingdom, he had a fairly good impression of the Dragon Soul Guild.

"Brother Calamity, are you interested in joining our Dragon Soul Guild? If you join, we can give you a Vice President position directly, and all future resources can be prioritized for you."

Tie Bu Shan said with a smile.

"Sorry, I'm used to being idle. I have no plans to join a guild at the moment."

Chen Ming refused decisively; he had no intention of being someone else's subordinate.

"Brother, why not reconsider? Our Dragon Soul Guild represents the Dragon Kingdom government. Our overall strength is beyond doubt. If you have any other requirements, just name them, and we will surely satisfy them."

Tie Bu Shan said, refusing to give up.

"Forget about joining, but I do have a deal for you."

Chen Ming changed the subject.

"What deal?" Tie Bu Shan asked curiously.

"I have a batch of equipment. I wonder if Dragon Soul is interested?"

"A batch?"

Tie Bu Shan's eyes showed doubt.

At this stage, equipment could be counted in 'batches'?

"That's right, the lowest are bronze grade," Chen Ming nodded. "I'm just afraid your Dragon Soul can't swallow it all."

Equipment was something that player guilds could never have enough of at this stage, especially high-quality gear.

With every extra piece, the guild's overall strength would increase slightly.

The reason Chen Ming didn't choose to list them on the Auction House was mainly because the 10% transaction fee was simply too high.

In comparison, private trading between players was much more cost-effective.

"Let me see them."

Tie Bu Shan rubbed his hands excitedly. Although he hadn't successfully recruited Calamity, acquiring a batch of high-quality equipment was also good.

Chen Ming took out all the equipment he wanted to sell from his bag in one go.

Clatter!!

"Thirteen pieces in total. bronze grade is 20,000 each, silver grade is 100,000 each, and gold grade is 350,000 each. It adds up to 1,240,000 gold coins."

Chen Ming stated the price calmly.

Tie Bu Shan's eyes widened, and even his breathing became rapid.

Currently, let alone gold grade equipment, even silver grade was extremely rare.

Yet in this pile of equipment Calamity brought out, there were four pieces of silver grade gear alone, and even two pieces of gold grade gear.

My god! This Calamity must really be cheating!

"Brother Calamity, please wait a moment. I need to ask headquarters for instructions."

Tie Bu Shan said somewhat awkwardly; he couldn't produce that many gold coins all at once.

"Sure!"

Chen Ming nodded.

A moment later, Tie Bu Shan walked up to Chen Ming excitedly: "Brother Calamity, it's done."

"One million two hundred and forty thousand gold coins have been transferred to you."

[Player [Dragon Soul - Tie Bu Shan] has transferred 1,240,000 gold coins to you.]

The notification popped up before his eyes.

The amount of gold coins Chen Ming now held had reached 1,370,000.

"Pleasure doing business."

A hint of a smile appeared at the corner of Chen Ming's mouth.

"Brother Calamity, let's add each other as friends. If you have more high-quality equipment to sell in the future, you can look for me."

"No problem!"

After adding Tie Bu Shan as a friend, Chen Ming turned and left.
