Chapter 261 Absorption
There are three major gangs in Cajin State, namely the Aiyi family, the Xiuwu family, and the Gasia family.
These gangs have a certain status in Cajun.
But compared to the ten old men whose influence spread across six continents and ten districts, overall they are still inferior.
Melena belongs to the Aiyi family, and the backer of the Aiyi family is Cheli Donish, the fourth prince of the Cajin Kingdom.
One of Chelidonich's hobbies is his obsession with collecting human organs.
Among the many collections, his favorite is undoubtedly the flaming eye of the Kuluta tribe.
However, the reason why he loves red eyes is not because of their rare qualities.
It’s because this kind of eyes will only show the brightest red color when the owner is extremely angry.
Hence, to him, the real value of flaming red eyes lies in their ability to perfectly freeze the most intense moments of life.
Anger, despair, struggle.
and the consequent decline.
Just by staring into those bright red pupils, Chelidonich could directly see the last emotions of his master before his death, and then look down at their pain and powerlessness.
This art of permanently sealing strong emotions fascinates him deeply.
Another example is that he likes to skin women alive, but the woman must have outstanding knowledge and connotation,
Otherwise, it is no different from skinning animals such as pigs and monkeys.
This is Celidonich’s pursuit of comprehensive art, and it is also his sole criterion for collecting human organs.
So in order to obtain the two pairs of flaming eyes that will appear at Youkesin's auction this time, he directly dispatched Melena, the capable general of the Aiyi family.
"Just for two pairs of worthless eyes, it's really——
Melena naturally clasped her hands and hung them on her thighs. The mobile phone on the desk was reflected in her dark and deep eyes.
"It's boring."
murmured softly.
Melena stretched out her right hand and casually opened the auction brochure next to her mobile phone.
She has no interest at all in this kind of hobby that is derived from a cesspool-like world and is just to satisfy human desires and needs.
However, in order to implement the final plan, she needs to wait patiently.
Before that, she needed to gain the respect of Chelidonich.
"It's almost there.—"
Melena's slender fingers paused, and she touched the photo of the flaming eyes with her fingertips.
The moment she is appointed as the leader of the Ai family by Chelidonich, she will give the order to "kill each other" during the succession ceremony.
This is the most important step in her |screening|.
In order to take this step, she is willing to wait and endure.
All this is to destroy this world like a cesspit.
It’s near noon.
Batra's motorcade entered Youkesin City and immediately stopped on the road near the free trade market.
This is Moreau's request.
In order to raise the red-hot funds for the bidding faster, the first thing Morrow did when he arrived in Youkesin City was to go straight to the free trading market to see if he could pick up any leaks.
As the car stopped, Moro, Menchi, and Kurapika got out of the car one after another.
At this moment,
In a black luxury car located in the middle of the convoy, Batra and Juezjuela actually opened the door and got out of the car.
Batra came to Moreau, followed closely by Juezjuela.
The security personnel in other vehicles also quickly got out of the car and formed a protective circle around Batra in a highly alert manner. "Mr. Moreau, although I know very well that you are not interested in clearing Greed Island, but I still want to express my sincerity again."
Batra said solemnly: "If one day, you change your mind and become interested in this game, please contact me as soon as possible."
In fact, this day will not happen.
Not to mention whether there were any prey that met his requirements on Greed Island, even if there were, as soon as he thought about the various card mechanisms that could directly affect the changes in the battle, he immediately lost interest.
As for the 50 billion level-clearing reward, if you don’t have a true love for the game and conquer the game just for the reward, not only will it take a lot of time, but you may not even be able to collect all the designated cards.
Maybe even less than one.
Thinking about it this way, the temptation of 50 billion is not that big.
A moment later.
Batra's motorcade drove towards the city center.
Morrow watched the convoy go away, and then looked away.
Menqi withdrew his gaze and sighed softly:
"On the way here, I checked Batra’s information on my mobile phone. Unexpectedly, he not only has amazing financial resources, but also shows no mercy in spending money. He bid for tens of billions of Greedy Island game qualifications without blinking an eye."
As she spoke, she shook her head slightly, showing an incomprehensible expression.
· In fact, those hunters who were attracted by the astronomical reward of 50 billion also couldn't understand Batra's approach.
· He was actually willing to invest such an astonishing amount of money to clear a game.
But most people don't care about Batra's motives.
In their view, the attractive 50 billion remuneration is the only focus worthy of attention.
Listening to Menqi's sigh, Morrow remained silent, only glancing at Kurapika without any trace.
He knew that the reason why Batra invested such a huge amount of money was just to obtain the Archangel's Breath card in Greed Island, and then use it to save his lover who had been unconscious due to the accident.
Theoretically, Kurapika's healing chain may also be able to awaken Batra's lover.
If successful, it means that you can directly get the 50 billion reward, and maybe even more.
With this huge amount of money, not to mention the two pairs of flaming eyes that will appear at the auction, even those scattered in the hands of private collectors can be recovered through monetary transactions.
However.·
The restriction price of the Healing Chain is to pay the lifespan according to the strength of the healing.
Top rich people like Batra must have tried various methods before noticing the game Greed Island, but they all ended in failure.
It is even possible that Batra is still adopting a two-pronged approach to this day, pouring huge amounts of money on the island of greed while still not giving up on finding other cures.
But so many years have passed and there has been no progress.
This fully shows that it is extremely difficult to cure Batra's lover.
So, if Kurapika's healing chain can successfully awaken Batra's lover, it means that——·
Kurapika needs to pay a lot of life.
But Moro knew that in this matter, Kurapika would not hesitate to sacrifice his life in order to regain the eyes of his tribe more quickly.
Based on this judgment, Moro would never take the initiative to inform Kurapika about this matter.
"Okay, let's start shopping."
Morrow turned his eyes and looked at the entrance of the free trade market.
From his position, he could already see some street stalls.
Returning to the most familiar city of Youkesin, the first thing he did was to make money. With a little emotion, Moro exchanged a few words with Kurapika and the others, then chose a direction and walked to the stalls displaying various antiques and miscellaneous items with ease.
With his level, he has the ability to evaluate even some genuine products that do not have mind energy attached to them.
But in terms of efficiency, it is far inferior to using "Condensation" to scan goods directly.
The most important thing is that he wants to take this opportunity to test the difficulty of absorbing the energy of the third ring.
An hour later.
Morrow visited all the stalls in this area and finally found only one item with telepathy attached to it.
It is a small stone statue wearing a monkey and a crown, with a weak mental energy surrounding its surface.
Since it is a modern sculpture, this stone statue has almost no collection value.
Morrow easily bought it from the stall owner for only 200,000 ghini.
"Brother, let's take a look at this stone statue of a flying bird again!"
The stall owner saw that Moreau readily bought the cheap stone statue, and immediately started to sell it enthusiastically, "This is an authentic work by the 12th century sculptor Diaz. Someone offered me 2 million before and I didn't sell it. If you like it, take the 1.8 million!"
Morrow didn’t even look at the police, but turned around and left with the stone statue of the crowned monkey.
The stall owner did not give up and kept shouting at the back to persuade him to stay.
Morrow turned a deaf ear, found a secluded place, and rolled the thoughts on the stone statue of the crowned monkey into the annual rings.
During the brief process, Moro kept staring at the energy bar of the third annual ring.
The result was only a slight increase, not even 1%.
"The difficulty of charging has indeed increased a lot. It is only the third round, and ordinary teleportation objects are already very difficult, and they can only add up.
Moro has long been mentally prepared for this result.
However, with the mentality that something is better than nothing, he will not miss it easily as long as he encounters teleportation objects.
Morrow glanced at the direction he came from, wondering what Menqi and Kurapika would gain.
Thinking of this, Moreau exerted force with his fingers, broke off the head of the stone statue of the crowned monkey, and then threw the other half of the stone statue into a pile of stones in the green belt.
Morrow looked at the head of the crowned monkey statue in his hand, controlled his strength, and carefully crushed the crowned hat on the monkey statue's head.
As the stone chips fell away little by little, only half of the monkey's head was left, revealing a ray of orange-yellow luster.
It was a jade stone that was integrated into the stone statue and was only about the size of a thumb.
Morrow rubbed off the stones next to the orange topaz more carefully.
It took about a few minutes to take out the jade stone, which was only as big as a thumbnail.
"It's a bit small, but it should be worth about ten million."
Morrow put away the orange topaz stone.
The value of this little thing lies not in collection, but in its calming effect.
Morrow was not sure at first that there was something in the stone statue of the crowned monkey. When he absorbed the thought energy, he sensed the source inside the stone statue.
When he saw the appearance of this orange-yellow jade stone, he recognized its origin at a glance.
This thing is very popular in the jade collecting circle. He had been exposed to it before. Although it was not profitable at the time, it could be regarded as gaining some knowledge.
Originally, I only went there to absorb the energy of thought, but I didn’t expect such an unexpected surprise.
Sure enough, as long as it is an object that relies on mind energy, even if it looks ordinary on the surface, there is a high probability that it contains mysteries.
Two hours later.
Morrow was at another entrance of the free trade market, waiting for Kurapika and Menchi to come and meet.
After a while.
Kurapika and Menchi came out one after another.
The harvest of the two of them was pretty good, and they collected a total of six miscellaneous antiques with mental energy.
On the contrary, Moreau's luck was average. Apart from the damaged stone statue of the crowned monkey, only one memory object was found later.
He absorbed the thought energy from the thought object, and the energy bar of the third annual ring was still fixed at 42%.
"How much are these worth?"
Menqi looked at the seven antiques and miscellaneous items gathered together and asked curiously.
Morrow glanced at the coffee shop across the street and said, "Go sit there for a while and I'll calculate it slowly."
"Okay."
Menqi nodded.
The three of them crossed the street, walked into the coffee shop, and found a seat in the corner to sit down.
Placing seven miscellaneous antiques on the table, Morrow evaluated the price in front of Menqi and Kurapika while absorbing the thoughts above.
After absorbing the energy of the fourth thought object, the energy of the third circle that had been stagnant finally increased to 43%.
"About 5 objects can convert 1% of energy"
Morrow was confident and continued to absorb the thoughts of other objects.
Menqi and Kurapika looked at Morrow's actions. Although they were confused, they did not ask any more questions and waited for the results to come out.
"This is a rare item, not valuable."
Moreau picked out a lifelike porcelain doll with thoughts from the collection, which may not necessarily be the authentic one.
Because some masters of counterfeiting are truly amazing, and once they reach the state of enlightenment, they can still retain their spiritual energy. The porcelain doll that Moro picked out was a 17th-century craft, but he was unable to absorb the spiritual energy surrounding it.
This shows that the person who made the porcelain doll is still alive.
This alone can determine the authenticity of this porcelain doll.
Morrow then looked at the remaining six antiques and miscellaneous items and estimated a rough price based on experience.
"The total value is about 90 million denim."
Morrow said, placing the small soothing jade on the table, "Adding this, we can almost make up to 100 million. This is still a conservative estimate. If you want to make a quick move, it is normal to make a profit of hundreds or tens of millions."
"(000)
Menqi's eyes shone, and he said excitedly: "We have made nearly 100 million in just two or three hours. It seems that it is not difficult to collect 5 billion!"
"Don't be happy too early."
Morrow shook his head calmly, in sharp contrast to Menqi's excitement.
"There are only a few decent free trading markets. Our method of sweeping goods in one round will almost squeeze out the value. It is difficult to get a second wave of harvest in the short term, not to mention that there may be other peers competing."
She rested her head on her arms, tilted her head and looked at Morrow, and sighed sincerely: "But to be honest, I didn't expect you to know this, it's really amazing."
"I just come to Youkesin often, and I don't really know much."
Morrow shook his head again and glanced at Kurapika, who was frowning and thinking.
"Anyway, you can earn as much as you can these days. If it doesn't work, just ask someone to borrow money."
Kurapika and Menchi each nodded.
On the street near the Free Trade Market, there was a man holding a mobile phone. He looked down at the picture of Kurapika on the screen, then raised his head and glanced around.
His eyes were cold and he did not hide his murderous intent.
