243: Su Lie, please take care of me! (Opportunity Shop!)

Feeling Su Lie's powerful arm and the fiery warmth emanating from him, Zhang Lin's extremely panicked emotions slowly stabilized.

She rested her chin on Su Lie's shoulder and whispered, "You scared me to death! I thought I would never see you again!"

"Don't worry! I've been here the whole time!"

Su Lie patted Zhang Lin's back.

Zhang Lin showed a sweet expression and said eagerly, "It's so good to have you!"

Once her emotions had stabilized.

Only then did Su Lie look Zhang Lin over again.

He realized that the Divine-grade Charm Aura's influence on Zhang Lin was subtle yet pervasive.

Zhang Lin clearly knew what she was doing and what her goals were.

Yet, she simply could not leave Su Lie.

This was an indescribable feeling.

"To be honest! I'm so afraid of being separated from you!"

Zhang Lin said reluctantly, "I don't just mean inside the Dungeon, but outside the Dungeon too!"

She sighed again, "If only there was a servitude contract! I could move into your home openly and honestly!"

"What's wrong? You don't want to strive on your own anymore?"

Su Lie asked with a smile.

Zhang Lin chuckled, shaking Su Lie's arm as she said, "this one can't leave you!"

"You don't want to become a heroine anymore?"

Su Lie continued to ask.

Zhang Lin stuck out her tongue and said with a laugh, "Yup! I don't want to work hard anymore!"

"Su Lie! Support me!"

The moment she spoke these words.

The last sliver of persistence in Zhang Lin's heart completely vanished into thin air.

At this moment.

What dignity did she need?

What goal did she need?

Su Lie was her dignity.

He was her goal.

"Once the conditions are met, I will let you move into my Shelter!"

Su Lie took out a transaction card and mentioned some precautions and the rules of the Integral Shop: "Alright! Stop being so clingy! Here is a transaction card! I'll take you to the Integral Shop to take a look later!"

Zhang Lin obediently let go of Su Lie.

She asked a few more questions.

Time flew by, and 12 o'clock officially arrived.

Su Lie took Zhang Lin to the top of the apartment building.

At this moment.

Su Lie first saw the pillar of light indicating escape more than a hundred kilometers away.

He immediately sensed the location of the Integral Shop.

The location was the same as last night.

This gave Su Lie a piece of information: "Integral Shops that have not been traded with will continue to appear in the same location!"

Having said that.

He immediately led Zhang Lin toward the basement next door.

When he entered this Integral Shop.

He found that the lighting in this shop was much dimmer than in the other two shops.

There were no greeters here.

There were only models of buildings.

Standing in front of the counter was a shopkeeper wearing a long gown and a watercolor ink mask.

"Guest! Please pay your entrance fee first! Two transaction cards per person, or 20 million points!"

The shopkeeper's low and slightly terrifying voice rang out.

Zhang Lin felt immense pressure, and she couldn't help but hide behind Su Lie.

Su Lie took out four transaction cards and placed them on the counter: "Here!"

"Hmm! This shop is a Shelter Shop! Here you can buy all advancement tools related to the Shelter!"

The shopkeeper nodded.

He collected the transaction cards while saying, "Guest, please allow this humble shop to verify your Mist Points! We will generate a menu suitable for you based on your Mist Points!"

"Huh?"

Su Lie paused, just as he was about to ask why.

A prompt from the mist rule appeared in his line of sight.

Zhang Lin tugged at Su Lie's clothes and whispered, "Su Lie! Should we allow it?"

"Yes!"

Su Lie glanced at Zhang Lin and nodded confidently.

*Buzz!*

In the blink of an eye, the shopkeeper took out a menu and placed it on the counter.

He said to Su Lie, "Guest! Your Mist Points meet the consumption standard of this shop, and the corresponding menu has been generated for you!"

"This Guest is a pauper and does not meet the transaction rules of this shop! Please pay an additional transaction card as the fee for this inspection, otherwise, you will be permanently kept here!"

The shopkeeper looked at Zhang Lin.

*Clack!*

Zhang Lin looked at Su Lie after hearing this.

Su Lie took out another transaction card. As he placed it on the counter, he asked, "Can she stay by my side... hmm... and leave with me?"

After receiving the transaction card, the shopkeeper replied, "She can only stay here for five minutes! And she must not touch anything!"

"Alright!"

Su Lie nodded, finally feeling relieved enough to look at the menu.

The menu was divided into three sections.

They were the side dish section, the hotpot section, and the beverage section.

The side dish section contained basic materials, only wood, Stone, and iron.

The transaction rules dictated that two Mist Points could be exchanged for one unit of basic material.

This was twice as expensive as the materials Su Lie had encountered in other shops.

The hotpot section consisted of various buildings.

These included wells, rivers, lakes, rockeries, warehouses, villas, and so on.

These buildings were basically ordinary structures, and each one required at least 10 million Mist Points.

The beverage section contained some special tools.

There were a total of five tools listed.

They were:

vassal recruitment scroll, 10 copies for every 10 million Mist Points.

Shelter Nature Conversion Decree: 1 copy for every 20 million Mist Points.

shelter advancement decree, 1 item for every 50 million Mist Points.

heart of the lord, 1 item for every 100 million Mist Points.

lords edict, 1 item for 200 million Mist Points.

"These all seem pretty good!"

Su Lie hesitated after looking at them.

With his 380 million plus Mist Points.

If he were to purchase buildings.

He could acquire at least ten structures.

Many of those functional buildings would be very useful to him.

But the special tools in the beverage section made him exceptionally greedy.

"Special tools are extremely rare; some I haven't even seen before! But buildings are common!"

Thinking this over.

Su Lie made his choice.

He pointed to the five special tools and said, "I want them all!"

"Thank you for your patronage! The total required is ten transaction cards, 380 million Mist Points, plus a 5 million Mist Points tip!"

The shopkeeper revealed a pair of fervent eyes and stretched out his hand toward Su Lie.

Su Lie's eyelid twitched upon hearing this: "Doesn't one type of resource only require one transaction card?"

"This shop is a special shop. You can choose not to pay the transaction fee, but this shop has the right to use the deprivation rule on Guests like you who make fraudulent purchases!"

The shopkeeper spoke maliciously.

At this moment.

Su Lie felt a sense of deadly crisis.

He realized that if he didn't pay obediently.

He would be permanently trapped in the Integral Shop.

"Damn it!"

Su Lie cursed under his breath.

He took out ten transaction cards.

Just then.

A payment prompt also appeared in his line of sight.

After seeing the prompt.

Su Lie was stunned, and he asked the shopkeeper, "Why is it 387 million? That's 2 million more than the price you quoted!"

"That is the price for your vulgar language!"

The shopkeeper replied indifferently.

Su Lie was speechless and had no choice but to pay.

*Buzz!*

In the blink of an eye.

He completed the payment.

The shopkeeper handed over the tools Su Lie purchased one by one.

The moment the transaction was complete.

Su Lie saw the surrounding light shift.

The shop vanished instantly.

Also at this moment.

A prompt from the mist rule jumped into the sight of Su Lie and Zhang Lin.

[Congratulations on successfully finding the largest opportunity shop in this Dungeon—the Shelter Shop! And completing five orders!]

[Reward: 5 million Mist Points!]

Su Lie grinned after reading it: "The mist rule's output is truly impressive!"

As he spoke.

He looked at his personal panel.

He saw that his Mist Points only had 5,381,270 points remaining.

This transaction was indeed ridiculously expensive.

It was clearly designed to drain his savings completely.

"I hope the items I traded for are worth the cost!"

Su Lie patted the ruyi pouch.

Currently, he couldn't use the Eye of Identification to check the tools; he could only wait until he returned to the Shelter to examine them.

Zhang Lin, standing nearby, looked at Su Lie excitedly and said, "Su Lie! I received a discovery reward of 1 million points!"

As she spoke.

She returned the transaction card in her hand to Su Lie.

Su Lie put away the transaction card and asked Zhang Lin again, "Do you still want to leave early?"
