"Uh, if possible, I'd like a large architectural design plan, preferably for the Corpse Witch Tomb, or if not, the Bone Dragon Tomb plan."
"Let's not even think about it. I've only heard of the design plan for the Corpse Witch Tomb. As for the Bone Dragon Tomb, I can guarantee there isn't a single one in the guild.
Never mind, I'll talk to him for you, plus I'll report the average price at three times higher.
Don't worry, they're loaded, you won't lose out."
After releasing the Raven, Liu Kai turned to Gu Xi and spoke.
"Okay, when you return later, just wander around the Scattered Immortal Garden and wait for my message, okay?"
Seeing Liu Kai's confident expression, Gu Xi nodded. He also wanted to rest for a few days in the Scattered Immortal Garden, so it wasn't a problem for him to wait.
As long as the person Liu Kai introduces is truly capable, he could recover the time invested in a few days.
"Alright, I have things to do, so just enjoy yourself. If you want to return to the Scattered Immortal Garden, see that green Teleportation Gate over there? Just step right in.
But if I were you, I wouldn't leave too early. I heard players from the Extreme Frozen Sea, Death God Snow Peak are coming over soon.
They might have goods that the Scattered Immortal Garden doesn't, and you can exchange with them."
"Got it, thanks a lot!"
Upon hearing Liu Kai's words, Gu Xi casually responded. Whether he stayed or not was another matter.
After Liu Kai left, Gu Xi was about to look around elsewhere, but to his surprise, several players surrounded him.
"Hey mate, do you know Liu Kai?"
"Yeah, I've done some business with him before, why? Is there a problem with him?"
Gu Xi glanced at the players and realized they weren't there to cause trouble. Instead, there was a trace of envy in their eyes, which surprised Gu Xi a bit.
"No big deal, it's just that we heard the Poisonous Lich Liu Family's Poison Curse Book now has an inheritor, that's Liu Kai. It's a big deal, the Poison Curse Book is a top-grade Purple Armor for the Undead Mage.
Everyone's stuck at Level 5, but fate is just that unfair."
A top-grade Purple Armor for an Undead Mage?
Gu Xi blinked upon hearing this, finally understanding Liu Kai's current status.
It seems that with his talent activated, Liu Kai's position at home has changed significantly.
Gu Xi also indirectly realized how important a top-grade Purple Armor was to some ambitious players.
At this point, Gu Xi had mentally raised the price of the Ghost Face a bit more.
After leaving the players, Gu Xi wandered around the scene again.
The players had finished their skin transactions and were now trading the spoils from the Undead Calamity Array on the spot.
Gu Xi took a glance and found most of the items were still green and white gears and tools.
As for Blue Quality items, most players kept them unless they were useless, otherwise, they wouldn't put them up for sale.
These white and green quality items couldn't captivate Gu Xi's interest unless they had particularly good attributes.
After circling around and finding the same types of items, he lost interest and was about to leave.
At that moment, Gu Xi noticed a group of players gathered in one place, indicating there might be something valuable for sale.
His curiosity piqued instantly.
He joined the crowd and tapped a player on the shoulder.
"Hey, what's going on inside that looks so crowded?"
"Oh, you don't know? A player got lucky this time and acquired a bridge pillar, it's something good. Once placed, it will give a Blood Bridge outdoor training camp at a designated location, producing 5 Ogres weekly.
Now he's selling hiring slots for the Ogres."
"Ogres?"
Gu Xi paused, immediately knowing what the player meant by ogres.
They weren't like the little guys like ghouls, but a middle-tiered species, nicknamed Big Stick Giant, with Giant Bloodline, standing two to three meters tall wielding big clubs for combat.
They also have some innate talents and can automatically trigger the Bloodthirst Skill.
But for an Undead Mage, they're the best materials for creating Abominations or Sewn Monsters.
The bridge pillar mentioned by the player was essentially similar to Gu Xi's Little House Backpack.
Except Gu Xi's Little House Backpack provided a Farmer's House, the lowest among low-tier species.
The bridge pillar provided by the player's was a Blood Bridge, higher in the middle-tier species ranking.
The difference here was significant.
"Is he considering selling the bridge pillar?"
Gu Xi asked another question.
"No chance, several players have asked about it before, but he refused every time, only selling 3 ogres produced weekly, keeping 2 for himself."
Hearing this, Gu Xi realized that this player was ambitious.
He clearly understood what he had acquired this time.
So he held tight to his ultimate benefit, not letting go of any control over the outdoor training camp regardless of what others said.
Gu Xi couldn't help but admire this fellow's determination.
Moreover, Gu Xi understood that these players indeed had some good stuff, but he just hadn't spent enough time exploring to discover them.
So Gu Xi dismissed the idea of leaving immediately and started wandering again.
Gu Xi had to admit sometimes his luck was really good.
Pretty soon, Gu Xi noticed a player had set a bone on a stall.
This bone was a rib with flesh and blood on it, a good three meters long.
Gu Xi touched it and then looked up to ask, "Is this the rib of a Bone Giant? Do you have the complete body?"
"Yes, I killed an Otherworldly Ghost Boss, the body is complete, but not for sale whole."
The player looked up at Gu Xi and said, "The ribs and spine are more expensive, other bones cheaper."
Gu Xi was a bit puzzled; this player seemed well aware of the bones' conditions.
Wouldn't it be better to sell them all together?
Why split them for sale?
As Gu Xi was about to ask, the player anticipated his question, "Don't ask, I'm happy selling them this way."
"Alright then, give me two ribs."
As soon as Gu Xi asked for this, the player froze.
Two ribs? That's too little, right? Players who buy bones to prepare for bone dragons usually start with twenty ribs.
What's the point of just two?
Could it be that he saw through my plan?
The player wondered to himself.
In fact, he didn't have a Bone Giant's body, he just knew a rather rare skill, Bone Synthesis.
He could combine ordinary bones into large ribs or spines.
Thus, he could sell ribs or spines in large quantities but couldn't present a complete Bone Giant body.
Gu Xi's behavior made him believe his ability had been exposed.
"Forget it, forget it, I'll give you a better deal, just don't tell anyone outside."
Gu Xi blinked, a row of question marks appeared above his head.
