Summoning Players into My Game

"Twelve hours for one Energy Crystal Stone?"

"Hall Master Lin, are you sure?"

Igor and Donna couldn't help but look at Lin Qi, thinking he was joking.

The Gravity Room, which can be adjusted up to a twenty-fold gravity environment, costs only one Energy Crystal Stone for twelve hours. This price seems even cheaper than renting the Martial Artist Association's Gravity Room.

The Martial Artist Association's ten-fold Gravity Room has a daily rental fee of one Energy Crystal Stone.

This price is for normal rentals. If you want more time in the Gravity Room, you'd have to buy usage rights from others, which would also amount to one Energy Crystal Stone for twelve hours.

But the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall's Gravity Room has a twenty-fold gravity environment, which is much better than the Martial Artist Association's Gravity Room.

"Of course, I'm sure." Lin Qi nodded.

Although he had never been to the Martial Artist Association's Gravity Room, he knew a bit about the rental fees for Gravity Rooms.

One Energy Crystal Stone a day is insanely expensive.

Even though there are already over ten thousand Martial Arts Academy Disciples mining the small Energy Ore Veins on Red Moon Mountain, on average, they can only mine one a day, which shows just how precious Energy Crystal Stones are.

Now, half a day for one Energy Crystal Stone is no low price. It's equivalent to a thousand people mining for a day, while his consumption is only fifty units of Energy Ore per hour.

Igor and Donna, although Bone Forging Realm experts, don't have Energy Crystal Stones growing like cabbages. If the price is too high, they probably wouldn't rent at all.

And he is in dire need of Energy Crystal Stones. Players have a high demand for Gravity Rooms, and the effect of the Body Strengthening Secret Technique is indeed astonishing. Currently, the three Gravity Rooms are simply not enough. It's easy to get the B2 Level alloy for modifying the Basic Gravity Room by melting down damaged B2 Level weapons, but Energy Crystal Stones aren't something you can just wish into existence.

"In that case, I'll book for a month, twelve hours a day," Donna said without hesitation, seeing Lin Qi's certainty.

"A month?" Lin Qi was a bit surprised and said, "I'm not offering credit here, and if you're booking for a month, you must pay in full at once."

He originally thought Donna and the others would rent for a few days, considering the Energy Crystal Stones are precious even for Bone Forging Realm experts. He didn't expect Donna and the others to be so wealthy, making him slightly underestimate these Bone Forging Realm experts from strong clans.

"Brother, lend me your Crystal Stones, and I'll pay you back later," Donna said unceremoniously, looking at Igor.

"Here." Igor looked at his younger sister and reluctantly took out a metal box from his clothes and handed it over.

Donna's Martial Artist talent is a bit better than his, and she has a chance to be assessed for entering Domain City, possibly becoming the next City Lord after Ten Thousand Stars City's current City Lord.

With the assessment approaching, the clan plans to invest a lot of resources into Donna, hoping she can get into Domain City. Having a twenty-fold Gravity Room for cultivation at a reasonable price naturally meant there was no reason not to rent it for Donna.

"Hall Master Lin, please count. A total of thirty Energy Crystal Stones." Donna took out some of her Energy Crystal Stones, her beautiful eyes looking at Lin Qi as if saying he had better not go back on his word.

Lin Qi counted, confirmed the quantity was correct, and thought these two must be wealthy. He then pitched an idea: "Would you like to try a pear?"

"A pear?" Donna gave Lin Qi a puzzled look, not understanding what he meant, "Are you talking about fruit?"

"That's right." Lin Qi nodded, taking out a Vitality Pear from the system warehouse with a smile and said, "But our martial arts hall's pears aren't ordinary. They are cultivated with the essence of Lord Level monster blood, eating one can refresh and clear your mind for two hours, absolutely essential for cultivation."

Though he originally planned to reward players with Vitality Pears, it was hard to pass up such a lucrative opportunity with such a generous customer.

Especially now that they have a Basic Meditation Room, though not as effective as the Vitality Pear, it is more lasting. Instead of rewarding players with Vitality Pears, it would be better to develop another Basic Meditation Room.

"Cultivated with the essence of Lord Monster blood?" Donna asked, looking at the seemingly ordinary pear in Lin Qi's hand, somewhat convinced, "How much does it cost?"

Having previously witnessed the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall disciples hunting the Shadow Leopard King, she was curious why they'd go after the Shadow Leopard King's blood, and now she understood it was to cultivate the pears.

"Two Energy Crystal Stones each," Lin Qi said with a smile.

Consuming the efforts of a thousand Martial Arts Academy Disciples to draw the Vitality Pear, it surely should be worth two Energy Crystal Stones no matter how you looked at it.

"How much?" Igor's voice involuntarily got louder upon hearing the price.

On the market, even five bottles of Type Two Energy Potion wouldn't be worth an Energy Crystal Stone. As for Type Three Energy Potion made from Lord Level monsters, it's only valued at one Energy Crystal Stone.

A pear cultivated with Lord Monster blood alone, at best, might be worth one Energy Crystal Stone, but asking for two is nearly robbery.

"My pears are fairly priced and I guarantee you'll want another after the first," Lin Qi, unfazed by Igor almost shouting 'rip-off,' said, "Moreover, these pears are our Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall's treasured items. If you weren't such distinguished guests renting the Gravity Room for a month, I wouldn't even consider selling them."
