Chapter 59 - As Expected

There was nothing the others could say. s.h.i.+ Lei rolled three 6, a full 18 points. Plus, s.h.i.+ Lei was the one who picked up the item, so everyone could only watch s.h.i.+ Lei own this item.

The mage who stood behind s.h.i.+ Lei was as if he was struck by lightning. He cursed silently but there was nothing he could do as everyone agreed that the item would belong to s.h.i.+ Lei after everyone rolled, and s.h.i.+ Lei won’t take anything else.

Although he was unwilling to see this happen, but he could only exclaim how lucky s.h.i.+ Lei was as he got such a good item. There were so many in their team yet it had to be s.h.i.+ Lei who rolled an 18.

“You let me win!” s.h.i.+ Lei said without any surprise. Zhang stood up and slapped his heavy bear claws on s.h.i.+ Lei’s shoulders and he felt like they were disjointed from it.

“s.h.i.+tou, what’s up with your luck?!” Zhang Mo laughed out loud. This was the ideal outcome he had hoped for as he was the one who dragged s.h.i.+ lei over and if the purple-gold level item really dropped, he wished that s.h.i.+ Lei would be able to keep it. Although it was a bit unpleasant at the beginning, but it’s a good thing that the result was what he wanted.

“You need to treat me! Even if you can’t use this item now, you can sell for it for seven or eight thousand!” Zhang Mo helped s.h.i.+ Lei log onto his own mage account and successfully receive the item. Then, he returned the account to the mage who was standing behind s.h.i.+ Lei.

At this time, people in the Internet Café all realised something. s.h.i.+ Lei’s mage account could not use this item. The condition for using the item was level 50, and as everyone knew, s.h.i.+ Lei’s account was only a bit over level 30. Even if he found a professional booster, it would take more than half a month to reach level 50. At that time, the value in the item would not necessarily be as valuable as it is now.

Although it was the one and only G.o.d level item, but after half a month or so, it would still be good, except it won’t be at the top.

“s.h.i.+tou, if you can’t use it, sell it to me!” A mage who didn’t belong to the team spoke.

“7,000 yuan!”

“7,000 yuan? This item can be used by anyone other than bandits! I’ll pay 7,200!”

“I’ll pay 7,300 yuan, with a defence +4 cloak! You can use it at level 35!” Obviously, this person knew s.h.i.+ Lei rather well as s.h.i.+ Lei’s mage can use a level 35 cloak right now. 

“8,000!” Someone said leisurely.

With that, most people in the Internet Café became quiet. They estimated the price of the item to be about 7,000 or 8,000 and 8,000 reached its limit. Because the server had made an announcement on this item, the account s.h.i.+ Lei played on was spammed with direct messages.

In such a short period of time, another two teams had successfully finished the dungeon, except that none of them got the item drop so it was still the only purple-gold level item.

That mage scanned through his private messages and said with a worried face: “This is really making life difficult for me. I don’t think they’ll stop sending the messages until the second one comes out. s.h.i.+tou, everyone wants to know the properties of the item.”

s.h.i.+ Lei glanced at that mage and said: “Make an announcement and tell them that you already sold it. Also, show them its properties.”

The mage quickly made a public announcement to the whole server but it was quickly drowned by other messages. But many people saw it and helped him to copy the message and spam it.

The whole server was hyped up. After all, an item with such good properties was never seen before. Especially the people on the top ranks of the server, they were extremely tempted by it.

But messages spammed the mage’s message box again as they asked who he sold the item to.  

At this time, the bro who called 8,000 walked out and laughed bitterly: “s.h.i.+tou, you are too evil. You should’ve straight up tell me that my price was too low. Now you’ve revealed its properties, I don’t have the guts to buy it anymore.”

s.h.i.+ Lei raised his head and smiled.

This mage was a typical player who relied on money more. But obviously, his rank was nowhere near the top. If he really took the item with him, people would be chasing after him every day for the 0.0001% drop chance of his items. After its properties were revealed to the server, he was afraid that only the top 10 ranked players would have the guts to buy it.

“Normal price would be 7,000 or 8,000, your 8,000 yuan is indeed bit low. After all, this is the first one in the whole server!” Zhang Mo spoke for s.h.i.+ Lei on the side.

That person smiled and said: “Well, I don’t dare to buy it anymore. And honestly, after you do this, the price won’t be too high either. After all, the top 10 ranked players may not even dare to buy this and since the compet.i.tors are reduced, the price won’t be too high either.”

s.h.i.+ Lei looked at that person again and said: “Spit it out. You have a friend who wants it?”

That person was shocked and asked: “How did you know?”

“Well, you don’t want it, then what’s the point of you talking with me. Which pro is it?”

“The leader of my guild and he’s third on the rankings. I just confirmed the properties of the item with him and if he can have this, no one would be able to compete with him on 1v1. It’s even possible for him to become the first on the rankings!”

“Price!” s.h.i.+ Lei didn’t want to say anything useless and he even knew what the price would be.

That person only hesitated slightly. He probably thought that it was meaningless to bargain, so he lowered his body and whispered in s.h.i.+ Lei’s ears: “He only has 9,300. If you’re willing to sell it, it’s a deal.”

s.h.i.+ Lei smiled and thought, as expected, this item was the Scepter’s reward for him and it was exactly the same amount.

“Ok, deal!”

That person was delighted as he honestly thought that s.h.i.+ Lei would raise the price to 10,000 yuan. He also told his guild leader and the leader expressed that he will try to borrow some money, but keep s.h.i.+ Lei within the price range of 10,000 yuan first.

s.h.i.+ Lei gave his account to that person, and that person forwarded it to his leader. Quickly, s.h.i.+ Lei received a notification of the money transaction.

He gave the item to the person immediately and that person told s.h.i.+ Lei: “My leader says ‘thank you’. If you want, you can join our guild. I can’t talk about others, but your status definitely won’t be any lower than mine!”

s.h.i.+ Lei waved his hands and said: “I just play occasionally and I don’t really mind about this kind of thing. Otherwise, I wouldn’t sell this item anyways. Thank your leader for me, but I’ll pa.s.s!”

That person didn’t say much and left with a smile. Except for Zhang Mo who saw the money on s.h.i.+ Lei’s phone, the rest of them only knew that it was higher than 8,000 but not the exact number. But anyhow, everyone knew that s.h.i.+ Lei earned quite a lot. He probably earned at least 8,000 or 9,000 yuan from an item and everyone was jealous of s.h.i.+ Lei’s luck today.

s.h.i.+ Lei stood up and called out: “Everyone in the team! BBQ skewers and beers!” Although he didn’t know whether it could be counted within the quota, but it would only cost a few thousand. If it didn’t, s.h.i.+ Lei will make up for it with his own money. For one, s.h.i.+ Lei went all out!  

“s.h.i.+tou, you are lit!”

Everyone shouted and rushed outside together.
