226: Chapter 226 We are a professional team
That chill from Arrow of the Moon carried a hint of... killing intent that brooked no defiance.
Salos and Oro's expressions instantly darkened.
Who were they?
The War Leaders of the Titan Temple!
The Chief Oracle of Shadow of Roman!
They were giants who stood at the pinnacle of billions of players on the server, whose every word and action could sway the world's pattern!
Now, a woman was threatening them for
Although they really had no use for this piece of equipment.
But what about their dignity?
"Old woman, watch your tone."
Salos's burly figure stepped forward half a pace, causing the ground to tremble slightly.
He rested his great axe on his shoulder, his bell-like eyes filled with brutality and disdain.
"If you spoke properly, I wouldn't even bother looking at this broken helmet."
"But with that tone... Heh, today I really want to compete with you for it!"
Oro said nothing, merely tapping his staff elegantly with his fingertips.
His attitude was self-evident.
The atmosphere was tense, ready to ignite.
The silver moonlight around Arrow of the Moon suddenly intensified, her long hair fluttering as if she would summon the Moon Goddess to descend and blast these two ungrateful men to smithereens in the next second.
The top three players on the Source Realm leaderboard actually acted like three little brats fighting over a piece of candy.
Just at this tense moment, a voice, slightly lazy and tinged with impatience, slowly rang out.
"What's all the fuss about?"
Chen You strolled forward, hands in his pockets.
He glanced at the mythical blueprint shimmering with colorful divine light on the interface and sighed softly.
"It's a small matter."
He extended a finger and lightly tapped the distribution interface from a distance.
[System Notification: Player
This action stunned all three Big Boss.
A Mythical-grade item!
He didn't even hesitate for a moment?
"The equipment, Guild Leader Yue gets it."
Chen You spoke indifferently, as if stating something self-evident.
The chill in Arrow of the Moon's eyes lessened slightly, but Salos and Oro's expressions grew even uglier.
Why?
However, Chen You's next sentence caused all three of their brains to crash instantly.
"Guild Leader Yue, just send a red packet as a token of appreciation."
Red packet?
What red packet?
"We're here to work, aren't we? To clear the dungeon, we naturally have to follow the rules."
Chen You's gaze swept over their faces one by one, his tone still calm, "We are a professional team; we must have professional ethics."
"When loot drops, those who want it bid for it themselves."
"The highest bidder wins, and everyone earns money together."
He paused, then added, "Of course, that includes me too."
The scene fell into a deathly silence.
Bidding for equipment, splitting gold coins?
A gold-farming group?
This process, for Salos, Oro, and Arrow of the Moon, who had lived for countless years and already stood in the clouds looking down on all beings...
How unfamiliar, yet how... familiar.
Their thoughts seemed to be pulled back to those youthful years in an instant.
At that time, they were still greenhorns, following a group of Adventurers, clearing dungeons, either working or spending.
How many years had it been?
They hadn't experienced this feeling for so many years.
Once upon a time, if there was something they fancied, wasn't it in the guild's warehouse?
Whatever they wanted, countless subordinates would eagerly bring it to them.
The brutality on Salos's face slowly receded as he looked at Chen You with complex eyes.
The sneer at the corner of Oro's mouth also vanished, replaced by a thoughtful expression.
The moonlight around Arrow of the Moon completely dissipated, restoring her cold, ethereal appearance.
That wasn't just a simple memory.
It was their lost youth.
Chen You secretly chuckled at the trio's reactions.
Three big oafs.
"What? Guild Leader Yue is unwilling?" Chen You raised an eyebrow, "Then this equipment will be bid on by the other two guild leaders."
"I'll bid!"
Arrow of the Moon blurted out, a hint of urgency in her voice that she herself hadn't noticed.
What a joke!
The [God-Forged Radiance: Moon Goddess's Hunting Helmet]!
This was a Mythical Set component!
Let alone paying money, even if she had to exchange half of her guild's warehouse for it now, she wouldn't bat an eye!
"How much?" Oro folded his arms, watching the excitement with interest.
Arrow of the Moon was stumped.
How much should a Mythical-grade blueprint be worth?
This item had no market price at all!
It had never appeared in the history of the Source Realm!
She looked at Chen You, her eyes like she was asking a teacher.
"Just give what you think is appropriate," Chen You waved his hand, looking completely unconcerned.
"According to the saying in my hometown, for good luck, 888 would be fine."
"We are all respectable people; the amount doesn't matter."
Eight hundred eighty-eight gold coins was not a small sum, but as guild leaders of the Three Great Guilds, they could certainly afford it.
However, in the past, they would definitely have to be meticulous, notify the elders, and hold a meeting to discuss if it was worth it.
Now... did they still need to think?
Arrow of the Moon said no more and directly activated the trade function.
[System Notification: Player
Three notifications popped up simultaneously.
Salos and Oro looked at the 888 gold coins that had appeared out of nowhere in their backpacks, their expressions becoming somewhat strange.
They had already thought of more.
This meant that if they wanted to get equipment later, they would only need 888 gold coins?!
Chen You, however, calmly accepted it.
With the blueprint in hand, Arrow of the Moon treasured it as if it were a priceless gem, a captivating blush appearing on her usually icy face.
She looked at Chen You, her eyes now holding not just awe, but also a hint of... gratitude.
As for Salos and Oro, their gazes towards Chen You had completely changed.
It was a look mixed with greed, fanaticism, and extreme longing!
A new problem arose.
"Cough." Salos cleared his throat, trying to make his tone sound casual, "Um... immortal path pioneer sir."
He even changed his address.
"Do you still have that... 'Congratulations and Prosperity'... thing?"
Whatever ranking event it was, it seemed unimportant now.
For them, Chen You had already raised the top spot to 100,000 gold coins, an amount they definitely couldn't afford.
Let alone 100,000, even 10,000 was already beyond their expectations.
And now, what could be more appealing than a Mythical Set blueprint?!
Oro and Arrow of the Moon instantly pricked up their ears, even softening their breathing.
Chen You's heart skipped a beat.
Sure enough, he couldn't escape.
Although he himself didn't suffer any actual loss, giving away such a huge benefit for free still felt like a massive loss!
Should he go offline first and report it? Hear the professional team's opinion?
Chen You's face still bore that calm and indifferent expression.
He didn't answer directly but instead asked, "What do you think?"
The trio was stunned again.
What did that mean?
"How can such a medium that communicates with heaven and earth, a forbidden item that influences the trajectory of fate, be like roadside cabbage?"
Chen You's tone carried a hint of the vicissitudes of life, as if lecturing juniors.
"Every time it's used, it consumes a massive amount of luck as a guide. Why do you think that jelly bear underwent a mythical mutation just now?"
"That was me, using my own luck, to leverage the rules of this world!"
As he spoke, he was scared to death internally.
Fortunately, he had read plenty of novels, so the words to bluff came naturally.
Salos, Oro, and Arrow of the Moon were greatly shaken, and once again began their frantic self-convincing.
So that's how it is!
The 'Commemorative Grand Salute' was just a medium; it wasn't important!
What was important was the Secret Luck Technique!
No wonder! No wonder he could activate Destruction Mode, and possess such terrifying wealth and strength at Level 22!
He... he was essentially burning his own
For a moment, in the eyes of the three, besides awe, there was also a hint of... sympathy and admiration.
What incredible perseverance! What great courage!
"Today, my luck has been overused." Chen You shook his head, a
"In a short time, I'm afraid it cannot be used again."
Upon hearing this, Salos and the other two immediately showed expressions of extreme disappointment.
But then they felt that this was only reasonable.
If it could be used infinitely, that would be too fake!
Salos nodded knowingly, "Brother Chen, you've worked hard."
Chen You waved his hand with a look of shame.
Salos: "But how long do you need to rest? When's the next run?"
