"Um... the official price being cheap is different from whether I can buy it."
Nowadays, the Hand of Greed is really not something that ordinary people can buy.
If you can buy it, you have to pay a lot of price, either through favors or by buying it from scalpers at a high price.
Many people suspect that these scalpers are hired by the authorities...
After a few days, the Greedy Hand was completely in short supply. It was not just three countries that were looking to buy it, but all countries wanted to buy it.
Grand Duke Osiris has been discussing with several people he has contacted to change the way of selling. Otherwise, it is unknown when the current card-making factory will be able to produce enough Hands of Greed.
The factory can complete the preparation of all materials, but the card making still depends on the card makers to do it bit by bit, which cannot achieve true pure mechanical mass production.
"You..." When Maren heard Nimer say this, he immediately felt that he had lost his composure.
This is my sister. I came here to have a good relationship with her. How could I say such a thing
To put it bluntly, he simply couldn't accept that he, a level 4 player, lost to a level 3 player, or Nimer, who had always been inferior to him.
Just like when you see someone else getting rich, you don’t feel anything, but when you see someone you know suddenly become rich, you feel jealous…
Now Marlon had no time to think any more, as two huge ice elements had already rushed in front of him.
Ma Lun quickly threw out a one-star card and floated into the air.
As a result, two ice elements also took off at the same time!
Bang, bang…
The two ice elements attacked with one punch each, knocking Maren to the ground.
Seeing that the game was hopeless, Maren wanted to admit defeat, but Nimer was furious when he saw the staff in his hand.
This is my one month lockdown!
Bang!
"ah!"
An ice elemental stepped on Maren's hand, stopping his gesture of surrender.
“I… ah!”
Just as Maren was about to shout surrender, he saw an ice elemental kick him in the mouth, knocking out several of his teeth.
The two ice elements were like two rude men, attacking Maren.
… …
Upon seeing this, the vice-president hurried to the side of the ring and said to Nimer, "Nimer, he has already lost!"
"My brother said that we should not show mercy to the enemy until he loses his fighting power." Nimer retorted: "I feel that he can fight back!"
When the vice principal heard the usually well-behaved Nimer say such things, he was immediately at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"He is a guest of Avalon College," the vice-president dissuaded.
"He is my biological brother. This is a private matter between us. It will not escalate to the two academies." Nimer waved his hands, and the two ice elements fought even harder. "He didn't shout surrender, nor did he make a surrender gesture. He can still fight. I know my brother!"
The students below all laughed out loud.
Is this time to call me brother
Only then did they realize that the usually well-behaved Nimer had such a dark side.
In the past, Nimer followed Carlosso like a sister card follower, and no one thought she was an independent person.
Now... people are beginning to understand Nimer.
"Nimer, give me some face..." the vice principal said helplessly.
Bang, bang…
The ice element stomped down with two more powerful kicks.
Nimer gave a standard noble salute to Maren, who was already unable to move: "You are excellent. I look forward to competing with you next time."
Ma Lun, who was lying unconscious on the ground, couldn't help but tremble...
Chapter 70 Alita's Mission
After packing up, Caruso came out of the dormitory and went straight to the principal's office.
When I passed by some students, I heard them discussing something...
"Unfortunately, we are too late. Nimer was just beating up that guy named Maren from Avalon College in the ring."
"It is said that Maren is Nimer's biological brother?"
"This is too cruel. He was beaten so badly that he can't even stand up. His face is totally disfigured."
}"Keep your voice down, that's Caruso, right? Their relationship seems quite complicated."
"Magic can be used like this..."
"If Nimer was there when the elemental mages were communicating, he would definitely win."
"That's bad. Nimer is still too young."
When Caruso heard the news, a smile appeared on his face.
Nimer finally understood.
[Mr. Ka is laughing happily]
[Nimer finally forgot his former family]
[Sending your daughter away is despicable. Just beat her up.]
"Well, I'll beat him up after I'm done with my work."
… …
Soon, led by the principal, Caruso came to a hidden laboratory.
Pushing open the heavy door, Caruso entered the laboratory.
I saw that the laboratory was full of bookshelves and many different kinds of books were scattered on the ground.
Deep in the laboratory, a woman in a white coat was working with some materials.
> Caruso took a deep breath and started walking forward.
"Be careful not to step on them."
The woman spoke.
Her voice sounded weak, but it reached Caruso's ears clearly.
Caruso stepped forward cautiously.
This laboratory is very dim, with only a few oil lamps. I don’t know if this professor only likes dim environments.
After reaching the innermost part, Caruso finally saw Professor Alita who was doing research.
A white coat cannot hide her graceful figure.
It can be said that this is the most broad-minded woman Caruso has ever seen. Just looking at her conscience can arouse a man's most primitive desires.
Her skin was very white, an unhealthy-looking white.
Although her hair was messy, her face and hair were clean, without a trace of dirt, and she did not have the dark circles under her eyes that Carloso had imagined.
Seeing Caruso coming in, she pushed her glasses and whispered, "Are you the winner this time? What kind of card do you want to learn to make?"
Cards.
Among them is the Flame Storm that countless elemental mages dream of.
The cards she displayed were all elemental mage cards, each of them extremely powerful, and the weakest one was a fifth-tier card.
%"Professor Alita, I know you." Caruso said.
"Many people know me, but few have met me. Even Merlin wanted to meet me, but I rejected him." Alita fiddled with the cards: "Just choose directly. I don't like people who talk too much nonsense."
"Blessed Water, New Moon Gold, I can get it for you." Caruso said, "As long as you need it."
Alita's hand paused, she slowly turned her head and looked at Caruso's face: "Who are you?"
"Caruso Colia." Caruso smiled.
brush!
Alita stood up suddenly and grabbed Caruso by the collar, with a hint of murderous intent in her eyes: "Why do you know these two things!"
"You are a great card maker." Caruso said the lines that belonged to Merlin that the barrage taught him: "Unfortunately, your father broke a leg while exploring the dungeon for you. That leg was stained with a curse, and only the watering of blessed water can barely suppress the curse."
"You want to build him a mechanical leg to replace his original leg, but this curse can only be barely suppressed by the blessed water. Even if a new mechanical leg is installed, it will be corroded by the curse."
"To create a perfect leg, you need New Moon Gold, which is not an ordinary material."
"You posted quests on the black market and the Adventurer's Guild, clearly stating that you want these two things. However, Blessed Water is easy to get, but New Moon Gold is a material that can only be produced in a third-tier dungeon."
"This material is very special. If it is not made and placed on a person within ten days after being taken out of the dungeon, it will lose its effect of devouring the curse."
"Three years. You waited for three whole years. Even if you used the New Moon Gold to complete the task, the amount was not enough. In fact, a lot of the New Moon Gold had already exceeded the deadline when it arrived here..."
"You investigated me?" Alita frowned.
"I need you." Caruso did not refute: "I want to have my own team of card makers."
*"Hmph." Alita let go of Caruso and sat on the chair, covering her right leg with her left leg and crossing her hands in front of her chest: "Can you get it?"
"Of course." Caruso nodded: "Just because others can't get it doesn't mean I can't get it."
"It's too late." Alita shook her head: "Even if I get it, it's too late."
"That's for others." Caruso said, "I am sure I can bring you the New Moon and Full Moon Gold within a week. How will you repay me then?"
"How about being your stepmother?"
"Huh?" Caruso was stunned.
"Puchi..." Alita covered her mouth and laughed: "I'm just teasing you, I don't like old men, I still like handsome guys like you."
[Hahahahahahaha… Mr. Ka, don’t look at Alita like this now. She will not be the same person when she goes out.]
[Smoking, drinking, clubbing, and perming her hair, Alita is a fashion pioneer]
[I think Ka has misunderstood. In the CG, Merlin reaches out to Alita and wants to pull her up. Alita does look like an autistic type.]
[Damn, I just got Alita and she gave me a lot of things to do. To improve her mood, I have to use cigarettes and alcohol. Her personal tasks are all about bar fights.]
[Don’t think she likes a dim environment, she is just poor and doesn’t have enough money to pay for electricity]
[If she hadn't felt guilty about her father, she wouldn't have locked herself up here making cards and selling them to pay for her father's leg graft]
[After staying in this environment for a long time, she was under a lot of pressure and became abnormal]
[She has emptied her family's savings for her father]
Click.
At this moment, Alita took a cigarette, lit it, and blew out a smoke ring: "Little guy, what confidence do you have in getting the New Moon Gold?"
"I know a dungeon, level three, and I happen to be level three. And that dungeon must have the New Moon Gold you want." Caruso said, "I have my own companions who can get what you want."
"A third-level dungeon. Judging from your clothes, you are only a first-year student. Are you looking for death?" Alita looked at Caruso with a strange expression: "From the tone of your voice just now, you should be a noble. Do you want to hire some adventurers?"
Alita didn't ask how Caruso knew which newly appeared third-level dungeon had the New Moon and Full Moon Gold.
There are prophets in this world, and it is not particularly difficult to predict things like this.
"Of course I will go there in person. It's not my style to put my hopes in someone else's hands." Caruso said, "First-year students can also challenge the third-level dungeon. I just successfully challenged one."
"Huh, actually I've given up." Alita put the cigarette in her mouth and took a deep puff: "Three years, do you know how I spent these three years?"
"Hope and despair again and again..."
"I've never experienced that feeling, so I can't empathize with you. I'm sorry," said Caruso.
"You are such an honest kid." Alita said with emotion: "Three years ago, I was not even an S-rank card maker. Besides, I liked to make weird cards, so I didn't save much money. My father went on an adventure in the dungeon to get some materials for me, but he broke his leg in it."
