The equipment and skill books that were just taken out were merely drops from two Silver-level BOSSes.


    The real treasures still lay quietly in his backpack.


    The level 10 Dark Gold equipment and that skill book dropped by Reggie were definitely not for sale by Su Mubai right now.


    These items would fetch a good price only after leaving the Newbie Village.


    However, the level 5 Gold equipment, after being promoted, could still be sold to Richest in the World.


    But Su Mubai''s goal wasn''t just gold coins.


    "Since Brother White Night is so straightforward, I won''t be coy either. How much in total? Name your price!"


    Upon learning that he could pay the remaining amount tomorrow, Richest in the World instantly regained his confidence.


    "Weapons for 30 gold coins, plate armor for 40 gold coins, other equipment for 20 gold coins each, and these four skill books for 100 gold coins each. As for this one..."


    Su Mubai took out a single skill book and continued, "I''ll give you a special price, 500 gold coins."


    "So expensive?"


    Even Richest in the World, who wasn''t short on money, was stunned by Su Mubai''s offer.


    Level 5 Gold equipment and C-level skill books could only fetch a good price with him.


    Other players simply couldn''t come up with that much money.


    But this was all about supply and demand. They happened to need this batch of equipment and skills right now, so it wasn''t really about who was taking advantage.


    Anyone who''s played games knows that the earlier you get top-tier equipment and skills, the greater the advantage.


    In a while, even giving away level 5 Gold equipment would find no takers.


    Everyone entered the game at the same time, so there wouldn''t be new players later.


    He could accept all the other prices, but the last one was indeed a bit steep.


    500 gold coins?


    And that''s the special price?


    Is he really taking me for a fool?


    Richest in the World''s thoughts changed instantly upon seeing the skill description.

    [Resurrection]: (C) No level, active skill.


    Can resurrect a target player outside of combat, reducing their death penalty by 50% (excluding lifespan).


    Casting range 50 meters, casting time 5 seconds, cooldown 60 seconds, consumes 300 MP.


    Learning requirement: Priest class.


    This is Resurrection!


    Even if it can''t be used to resurrect during combat, it''s still resurrection.


    Is 500 gold coins expensive?


    It''s practically a steal!


    After level 5, leveling up gets harder and dying once means losing a level.


    With Resurrection, the loss is much smaller.


    Marshmallow''s eyes lit up at the sight of this skill.


    She''s a Priest, and learning this skill would naturally elevate her status in the team.


    Richest in the World waved his hand: "A total of 1080 gold coins, right? I''ll take it all!"


    Saying this, he initiated a trade with Su Mubai, putting up 580 gold coins.


    "Brother White Night, I''ll pay 580 gold coins now, and the remaining 500 tomorrow, is that okay?"


    Buzz~


    A contract appeared between them, and Su Mubai nodded lightly after looking at it.


    [Notice: You have successfully signed a contract with player "Richest in the World," who promises to complete the remaining transaction within 24 hours. If the other party defaults, they will incur a daily penalty of 10% of the contract amount until the full amount is deducted.]


    After the transaction, Richest in the World immediately began distributing the equipment and skill books.


    He did this deliberately to show Su Mubai that joining his team would definitely not be a loss.


    Su Mubai looked at Richest in the World with interest.


    If he remembered correctly, the first effect of the [God of Wealth] talent was the ability to shake the money tree once a day, randomly obtaining 1 to 999 gold coins.


    Is this guy so sure he can shake out more than 500 gold coins tomorrow?


    It must be the remaining two effects of the [God of Wealth] talent that give him confidence.


    Soon, everyone received equipment and skills that suited them, their faces barely able to hide their excitement.


    Richest in the World turned to Su Mubai with his signature smile:


    "Thank you, Brother White Night. With these items, we''re much more confident about clearing the Nightmare-level Mist Forest."


    "Oh? Is that so?"


    Su Mubai gave a meaningful smile: "Are you sure you can clear it faster than I can?"


    ???


    This sentence instantly froze the smiles on the faces of Richest in the World and his team.


    One second: Hee hee.


    The next second: Not hee hee.


    How did they forget this!


    Although White Night had cleared the Hell-level and Catastrophe-level first, he could also go for the Nightmare-level first clear.


    What do they have to compete with him for the first clear?


    Thinking of this, the faces of Richest in the World and his team turned a bit ugly, feeling as if they''d been played.


    The hot-tempered one who had trouble getting up in the morning glared at Su Mubai, just about to speak, when Falling Maple Leaves stopped him, shaking his head.


    Richest in the World also realized, staring straight at Su Mubai, chuckling awkwardly:


    "Brother White Night, that joke''s not funny at all. Name your terms."


    Hooked!


    Su Mubai had no intention of entering the Mist Forest again.


    He was already level 8, while the Nightmare-level mobs and bosses were only level 7.


    Not only would there be no overlevel bonus, but the experience points would also be reduced by 50%.


    Instead of wasting time in this dungeon, it was better to level up elsewhere.


    But he didn''t want to give up the first clear reward of the Primary Life Soul Stone.


    "The condition is simple: all the Primary Life Soul Stones from the first clear reward go to me."


    Falling Maple Leaves, having triggered a system announcement before, knew what Life Soul Stones were, Su Mubai was sure.


    Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized.


    So the Life Soul Stone was White Night''s real target.


    For a moment, Richest in the World and his team were a bit torn.


    The Primary Life Soul Stone, for anyone other than Su Mubai, only added thirty days to their lifespan.


    And the oldest among them, Richest in the World, looked only about 40.


    In the short term, they didn''t need the Life Soul Stone as urgently as Su Mubai.


    But this was an item that could extend lifespan!


    Even though not agreeing meant missing out on the first clear reward, if all the Life Soul Stones went to Su Mubai, what would be the point of getting the first clear?


    Su Mubai had anticipated this situation. His gaze fell on Falling Maple Leaves, and he suddenly asked:


    "How many Life Soul Stones did you get for the first kill of the Bronze-level BOSS?"


    Falling Maple Leaves was slightly taken aback, clearly not expecting Su Mubai to ask this, but still replied, "Two."


    "Have you absorbed them?"


    "Not yet."


    "I see..."


    Su Mubai''s eyes lit up, and he rubbed his chin, continuing:


    "Let''s make another deal. I''ll guarantee you can definitely get the first clear of the Nightmare-level Mist Forest, and also have the strength to farm the Hell-level difficulty."


    "The condition is to add those two Life Soul Stones, how about it?"


    Faced with Su Mubai''s escalating demands, Richest in the World and Falling Maple Leaves were not angry but eager to respond:


    "Deal!"


    All because Su Mubai took out five more pieces of equipment.


    Five pieces of Dark Gold equipment!
