Chapter 655 Damn Rich
In the hall of the Logistics Division, there was a hubbub of voices, and credit transactions were happening all the time.
From the side doors, goods and materials had been transported inside. In the end, people handed over all the points they earned through fighting and working to the Logistics Division and also helped the latter clear a large amount of inventory.
This was a long-developed market. The laws of the market had been established, so the market could already adjust the economy spontaneously.
At the moment, Han Fei was studying antitoxin fruits one by one.
Why was he so obsessed with these fruits? It was because of Cao Qiu’s Poison King and Poison God. Refining thousands of poisons in different ways was something only Cao Qiu could do.
Han Fei was confident that if he was poisoned by the Poison God now, he would probably be killed too.
Therefore, getting good enough anti-poison fruits must be put on the agenda. Any anti-poison fruit here was comparable to the Venomous Tulip in quality. Unfortunately, there was still a big gap with the effectiveness of the Million Poison Fruit.
Han Fei was muttering to himself,
“Jade Ghost Bamboo? No, this stuff is for poison cultivators and is too poisonous. If I eat this stuff, I won’t even be able to kiss later.”
“Sky Spider Grass? No, this can only detoxify the toxins of sea spiders and sea scorpions. 1 million points of credit? Too expensive!”
“Toxin Repelling Fruit? This… Seems to be okay. Its effect is better than the Venomous Tulip and Thousand Poison Fruit… Huh! 2.4 million points of credit? This is robbery! No way.”
After he turned many pages, his eyes suddenly brightened.
“Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect?” When Han Fei saw this, his eyelids jumped several times. He knew about this thing. It was a living insect. After being swallowed into the body, it would normally not move. But once the host was poisoned, it would help the host absorb toxins.
However, it was recorded in the “Complete Collection of Spiritual Plants in the Infinite Ocean” that this thing seemed to have a tolerance limit. He wasn’t sure whether it would work for the Poison God or not.
Han Fei looked at the price. 3.8 million points of credit. He gaped at the price in shock.
However, although it seemed a bit crappy to have a bug living in the body, its effect was not bad. The difference with the Million Poison Fruit was that Million Poison Fruit could basically detoxify all poisons, which almost eliminated the possibility of being poisoned.
While the Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect seemed to be able to detoxify any poison, in the end, the insect itself became more and more poisonous until it ate itself to death.
In a sense, the Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect was even better than the Million Poison Fruit. After all, the latter couldn’t literally block all kinds of poison.
However, there was a reason why no one bought this bug.
It was said that it was so insatiable to poison that it would easily eat itself to death. Secondly, it was too small to swallow much poison.
In case the insect died too soon, it would be a waste of money.
Han Fei thought for a while and listed this thing as one of his options. After Han Fei checked more than 100 kinds of anti-poison items, he found that the most cost-effective one was the Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect. Of course, the best choice was to buy all these options.
But that was almost impossible because it would cost hundreds of millions of points of credit.
Immediately, Han Fei went to the counter. “I want to exchange for the Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect.”
The girl at the counter was stunned, asking in surprise, “Are you sure?”
Han Fei nodded. “Yes!”
The girl took a breath. “May I see your waist tag first?”
Han Fei handed over his waist tag. When the girl saw his 14.6 million points of credit, she froze.
A junior Hanging Fisher, four-star rank, having 14.6 million points of credit?
Where did this person get so many points?
She said, “Please wait a moment.”
Then she said a few words to the waist tag.
After that, she gave Han Fei a sweet smile. “What is your name? And your position?” “Han Fei. The Third Column, the deputy captain of the Eighth Battalion.” Han Fei said proudly.
The girl’s eyes lit up. A junior Hanging Fisher is already a deputy captain of a battalion? “How old are you?”
Han Fei was taken aback. “16… Do I have to tell you my age?” “Ah! Two years younger than me. Do you have a girlfriend?”
“Cough, cough…” Han Fei blushed. “Yes, I do…”
The girl was quite disappointed. She sighed. “Then do you mind having one more?”
Han Fei: “???”
The girl chuckled. “I’m joking with you. The Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect you ordered will be delivered soon. Do you need anything else?”
Han Fei let out a sigh of relief and thought, Girls nowadays are so open!
“By the way, give me 100 level-one Soul Crystals and 10 level-two Soul Crystals, as well as 500 catties of Spirit Awakening Fluid,” Han Fei said.
The girl couldn’t help but feel envious. This guy is damn rich! He has spent 6.7 million points in the blink of an eye.
With only 5 million points of credit, one could upgrade into a six-star rank killer. In other words, if Han Fei’s combat skills were sufficient, with 5 million points of credit, he could immediately hang a six-star waist tag on his waist!
Even upgrading into a seven-star Centurion only required 10 million points of credit. Of course, at that level, points were only one of the conditions for the promotion.
But in the eyes of others, Han Fei was still so young but had already earned so many points. As long as he was not killed, promotion would only be a breeze to him.
After about half an hour, the Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect, Soul Crystals, and Spirit Awakening Fluid that Han Fei ordered had all been delivered to the counter.
As soon as Han Fei put away the things, the girl asked, “You really don’t feel like exchanging contact information with me? I’m only two years older than you, but I look 15…”
Han Fei was so embarrassed that he fled immediately. 15 years old. I’m not a pedophile!
Seeing Han Fei fleeing, the girl giggled for a while before she turned serious and grabbed her waist tag, reporting, “Han Fei, from the Third Column, deputy captain of the Eighth Battalion, a junior Hanging Fisher, four-star rank and is stationed at the Skeleton Shore… This person has just exchanged 6.7 million points of credit for a batch of supplies and needs to be taken seriously. He may be a Heavenly Talent.”
It was like routine reporting. After that, the girl quietly waited for the next customer as if nothing happened. Han Fei didn’t know all of this. He felt that he was not high-profile in some sense. Although he revealed his talent for refining, it would not offend anyone. Although he killed Red Demons, he didn’t do it with his own strength…
Han Fei had not checked out of the No. 18 refining room that he rented in the Refining Hall, so he hurried back. The staff of the Refining Hall staff thought Han Fei went to the Logistics Division to exchange for refining materials.
“Master Han, are you going to start refining weapons again?” someone shouted.
“No, I need to do some research. Don’t bother me,” Han Fei responded without looking back.
In the refining room.
The first thing Han Fei took out was a jade box that contained the Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect.
After setting up a defense array, Han Fei opened the box. What came into view was a thumb-sized pure-golden beetle. It was a bit chubby, lying foolishly in the box.
It seemed to be timid while it tilted its head, and glanced at Han Fei.
Han Fei was instantly amused. This insect looked a little better than he thought. At least it was not a myriapod, which looked gross to him.
In his eyes, a string of information emerged.
<Name> Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect
<Introduction> An insect immune to all poisons. It can swallow all poisons in the world, and grows up and evolves with poison. However, once the poison it swallows exceeds its tolerance limit, it’ll eat itself to death. This insect can lodge inside living beings and must be fed with spiritual energy, poison, etc. It cannot be fed with other energy. Otherwise, it’ll easily die.
<Level> 30
<Quality> Exotic (Upgradeable) <Contained Spiritual Energy> 600 Points
<Edible Effect> Inedible
<Collectible> Heaven Spirit Fluid
<Absorbable>
Han Fei took a breath immediately. This bug has a lot of room to grow! It’s only level-30. If it feeds on poison, won’t I have to eat poison every day?
No, no way.
But level-30 is too low! This bug will probably die soon. A poison like Poison King could absolutely kill it in one shot.
Han Fei sighed. So, this was the reason no one bought it!
Firstly, the price of 3.6 million points of credit was really not cheap, and secondly, daily feeding of poison was not something ordinary people could afford.
Although the Logistics Division sold poison, once you raised this little thing, you would have to feed it every day and for its lifetime.
This inevitably led to the fact that the price of buying it might be relatively cheap, but the price of raising it was surprisingly high. It would be okay if you didn’t feed it, but then it would be too low-leveled to be useful. This was a paradox.
Han Fei thought, Can it only be fed with poison? Would Spirit Awakening Fluid work?
His beasts all loved Spirit Awakening Fluid very much because that thing could help them make a quick breakthrough. Would it also work on the Heaven Spirit Detoxifying Insect?
“Um, I should have a try.”
