Chapter 254-Moxi
Dave strolled into the humble store nestled in a bustling market, its shelves lined with rows upon rows of unassuming rocks. The air was thick with anticipation as patrons eagerly examined the stones, their eyes gleaming with hope for the possibility of hidden treasures within. As Dave entered, his Ancestral Eyes instantly discerned the untapped potential that lay dormant within each rock.
The shopkeeper, an elderly man with a weathered face, glanced up from his worn wooden counter and greeted Dave with a warm smile. “Welcome, young traveler. Care to try your luck with our special selection of rocks?”
Dave returned the smile and nodded, his eyes scanning the array of rocks before him. His Ancestral Eyes can see clearly through the rock and grant him the ability to perceive the latent energy pulsating within each stone.
“I’ll take ten of them,” Dave said, his voice laced with quiet confidence. He pointed at the ten stones he found and all of them looked ordinary, unlike some stones who are shining.
The shopkeeper’s eyes widened slightly at the sizable request. “Ten? That will be 500 spirit stones, young sir.”
Dave reached into his pouch and withdrew the required amount, placing the stones on the counter. The shopkeeper’s curiosity was piqued, his gaze shifting between the rocks and Dave. He wondered what the young man knew that others did not.
Some onlookers felt pity and whispered to each other.
“Another one who is going to be scammed by that old man”
“Hehe, maybe he is just trying his luck.”
“It’s a pity, his looks are miserable, and he may be using his last money for nothing.”
As Dave selected the ten rocks, he held each one in his hands and told the old man to crack it.
“Okay”
The old man smiled while sneering in his heart. The rock Dave chose looked ordinary and he believed that there was no treasure inside it.
The old man took a hammer and hit the stone.
Crack!
Many are watching and something happens that stunned them, a light emerges from the rock and it shows a purple comb.
“What? Is that the Mystical Comb?”
“Yeah, if my eyes are not lying to me, it should be that artifact”
“Wow, I didn’t expect that the comb who is lost for thousands of years will be found here”
Dave scanned the comb and realized that it was an Imperial Immortal Level artifact and can be used to amplify spiritual attacks.
The old man was stunned, and his heart was bleeding, but he handed the treasure to Dave as he didn’t want their credibility to be destroyed.
Some onlookers wanted to buy the treasure and Dave sold it for 100,000 spirit stones. The original price of the com was only 50,000 but many bid for it so its price doubled.
After that, he took the next stone and told the old man to crack it. the old man nodded and felt that maybe he was just lucky.
He cracked the stone and then, a red Gem appeared in front of everyone.
“What? Is that a mid-level rune?”
“Yeah, it’s a pity there is no rune master here as no one can know the price of it”
Dave was stunned and he learned that Rune can be used to strengthen equipment and he planned to learn runesmith if he had time.
“Sir, would you like to sell this rune to me, my name is Reid and I will pay 500,000 spirit stones for this rune”
“What? Is he the famous blacksmith in the town?”
“Yes, I heard that he had a connection with a few Runes masters and I think he wants to gift it to them to study it”
“Yes, mid-level runes are precious and only people from the Capital can forge them.”
Dave doesn’t need the rune and his goal is to collect the spirit stone so he is about to agree until a man appears near him and gives an offer.
“Sir, I belong to the Wenson Family and I want to buy the rune for 200,000”
An arrogant man appeared, and his body was muscular. His height is the same as Dave but his aura is weak and Dave can slap him to death anytime.
Dave looks at the man and sneers. “Wenson Family?”
He remembers that Hemire was targeted by that Family so he didn’t have a good perception of them.
“What? He is from the Wenson Family? Even if the price is low, it should be his luck to give it to the Wenson Family”
“Yeah, he may acquire their favor.”
Many envied Dave but Dave looked at him as if he was a fool.
“Retard”
He ignores him and looks at Reid. “Deal!”
Reid was stunned as he didn’t expect that the man is fearless even after hearing about the Wenson Family. He is not afraid of them because he is respected, and he has a lot of connections.
“What did you say?”
The man from the Wenson Family was angered as he didn’t expect that he would not respect him. He wanted to attack but he remembers that it is not their domain so he may be punished by the authorities.
“Hmm, you better be careful.”
He looks at him with a warning look and then leads his men to leave the store. The old man sighs in relief as he is afraid that his store will be destroyed if the fight breaks out.
Dave ignores him and continues the deal with Reid.
“I like your braveness young man, but you better be careful because that family is vengeful, and they will not let you go easily.”
Reid warned him and Dave nodded and didn’t reply. They are just a bug that he can crush but he cannot act crazy here because his strength is not enough.
After that, he told the old man to continue to crack the stones and everyone was shocked because all the 9 stones he picked had treasures inside and he sold them to those who bid higher. The old man’s heart is bleeding and he never felt hopeless in his entire life.
Dave had gained 7 million just by selling the treasures but it’s a pity that he didn’t see any stone that contained treasures anymore.
As for the last stone, he was about to tell the old man to crack it until a beautiful lady appeared in the store. Her looks are beautiful, and her height is 5’6 feet tall but her body is sexy and alluring. All the men inside turn their eyes to her and their eyes light up and they cannot hide their burning desire.
Even so, no one dared to get near her as someone recognized her.
“What? Is she Moxi from the Joyful Sect”
“Yeah, I heard that they practice evil techniques, and they suck men until they die.”
“What? That is scary but if she is the one who will suck me, I think it’s worth it.”
Moxi looked at the ugly face of Dave, but she smiled and got near him. Her sexy body is in front of Dave but Dave is unfazed.
“Hey, can you give me this stone?”
She smiled and she is not requesting it but more like a command.
