YM778.TV Chapter 79 - Brother, That Should Be My Line
In the afternoon.
An unexpected visitor came to Lu Ming’s shop.
“Xia Yu?”
Lu Ming was shocked. After all, he and Xia Yu were merely acquaintances. They did not keep in contact.
“Thank you for saving me that day.”
Xia Yu expressed his gratitude solemnly.
“Huh?”
Lu Ming arched his eyebrow. How did he find out?
“A Sharpshooter’s observation.”
Xia Yu pointed to his eyes.
“Hehe.”
Lu Ming turned silent, he had forgotten about that.
True, as a Sharpshooter, Xia Yu had very good eyesight. He also had a skill that allowed him to see things in the far distance.
“By the way, why don’t you do the mission with Zhang Xiaopang?”
Lu Ming was curious.
Xia Yu was speechless.
He remained silent for a long while before he said, “It is too exasperating.”
Lu Ming laughed involuntarily.
“Can I take a look at the warrior?”
Xia Yu was very curious.
“Sure.”
Lu Ming acceded to his request.
Since Xia Yu already knew about it, he did not mind showing it to him.
Buzz—
The Burial Mound Warrior appeared.
Xia Yu was surprised that the Burial Mound Warrior was very powerful.
Three-star!
It was actually at a three-star level!
Lu Ming...
He had already reached this level now!
“It is a pity that there is not enough energy.”
Lu Ming sighed. “If not, it will be even more powerful when equipped with weapons.”
“Weapon...”
Xia Yu had an idea suddenly.
He put down the longbow on his back and passed it to the Burial Mound Warrior. “Want to give it a try?”
“No.”
Lu Ming shook his head. “It will be destroyed.”
He had already tried such a simple method.
However...
If the Burial Mound Warrior exerted force, the weapon would be destroyed!
The ability of the three-star cultivator was too powerful, normal weapons would be damaged by his energy.
“It’s alright.”
Xia Yu smiled. “This bow is special.”
“Oh?”
Lu Ming was excited. Perhaps he should give it a try?
Since Xia Yu was not worried, what should he be worried about?
“Come on!”
The Burial Mound Warrior took the longbow.
Swoosh!
He drew the arrow using the bow!
The effect was shocking!
The powerful energy of the three-star warrior exploded right then.
There was no need to activate the energy. Powerful energy flowed along the arrow and exploded into unimaginable power. Most importantly...
The shooting range was very far!
“Very powerful.”
Lu Ming and Xia Yu were stunned.
This was the arrow shot by a three-star cultivator.
One must know that even if one played tower defense games, there was a big difference between short distance and long-distance!
Furthermore...
He was a Sharpshooter!
Since ancient times, archers had a lot of special weapons. This was a harsh lesson!
“Your bow...”
Lu Ming’s eyes lit up.
“This is an Enchanted Bow.”
Xia Yu smiled and paused briefly. “This is especially for you.”
To be honest, since he saw the Burial Mound Warrior, he had already thought of this. Zhang Xiaopang kept fleeing for his life, but he saw the distress that the Burial Mound Warrior was in from the distance.
He was here to return the kindness.
“Thank you.”
Lu Ming was thankful.
“I am the one who should be grateful.”
Xia Yu was serious.
It was Lu Ming who had saved his life!
The Enchanted Bow...
Lu Ming’s eyes were shining.
With this bow, he would be able to fight against a three-star cultivator!
Although he could only deal with weaker three-star cultivators, to Lu Ming who had just achieved a two-star level, it was already more than enough!
This was a combat skill beyond levels!
He had skipped a level!
Of course.
This was only the basics.
Under the premise that he could protect himself, it was better to reach the highest possible level.
For example—
Enhanced arrows.
After all, the arrows were the main weapons!
Lu Ming could make the arrows to be more powerful...
He could ask Xia Yu for advice regarding related vocational knowledge, and how he should apply anesthesia on the arrows, or perhaps some aphrodisiac or all kinds of strange things to make it more formidable.
“Those products on the market are too weak. Some of the enchanted abilities can bring different effects to the arrows.”
Xia Yu had knowledge in this area. “Back when I could not use Energy Arrow, I would attach some abilities to the arrow.”
“Is that so?”
Lu Ming felt energized.
Look!
If he was able to add some effects to the arrows through attaching abilities...
Well...
He would be able to equip the Burial Mound Warriors with the arrows. When they released the arrows the effect would be formidable!
He was reminded of the game of Tower Defense.
As long as one had a long shooting range, it could easily be a gun turret!
I could shoot you in the face!
“I have an address here.”
Xia Yu gave a contact to Lu Ming. This was a place frequented by Sharpshooters.
“Okay.”
Lu Ming decided to make a trip in the afternoon.
That afternoon.
Lu Ming went out as planned.
“Xiaobai, I will be going out for a while.”
Lu Ming did not forget to remind her about safety. “Pay attention to safety, If anyone comes looking for trouble, insert the Burial Mound Card into the device and Brother Burial Mound will help you to deal with them.”
“Okay.”
Xiaobai smiled to herself.
Brother Burial Mound?
What kind of name did he come up with?!
...
Lu Ming went to the end of San Li Street with the address that Xia Yu gave him. He went there mainly to buy arrows that he could add abilities to.
According to Xia Yu, the products in this shop were thick, long and hard. It was very useful.
Well...
Lu Ming looked at the signage—Silver Arrow Flagship Store.
Nice name!
When he walked into the shop, there were all kinds of items in the neat glass cabinets. Other than that, there were arrows that had abilities added to them.
Ordinary arrows, ten yuan.
Strengthened arrows, fifty yuan.
Blank arrows, one thousand yuan.
Poisoned arrows, five thousand yuan.
Desire arrow, nine thousand yuan.
...
Lu Ming looked carefully and checked that he saw the price correctly.
He could forget about those Enchanted Arrows.
The so-called blank arrows were arrows that had yet to be improved with any abilities! It was similar to blank cards! How could they be so expensive?!
One shot for one thousand?
This price was much more expensive than the clubhouse!
“Hello.”
“This type of arrow is specially customized.”
The salesman in the shop was a burly man, he was about two meters tall, but he looked rather simple and honest. He explained patiently to Lu Ming. “These type of arrows are made of special material, it can perfectly retain the ability applied. Look at the material...”
“And the radian.”
The burly man pointed to the arrow. “One thousand yuan is only the base price.”
Was that so?
Lu Ming checked and discovered that this was indeed the market price of the arrows!
“It seems you are a novice.”
The burly man smiled.
“How do you know?”
Lu Ming was curious.
“A Sharpshooter definitely knows about Silver Arrow Flagship Store.”
The burly man had a smile on his face. “In our circle, we build our reputation based on word of mouth. It’s a pity that our manager is not here today. If not you would have had a discount of 10%.”
Lu Ming finally noticed that the salesman was the only person in the huge shop.
“Where is your manager?”
Lu Ming was curious.
“He went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce.”
The burly man revealed a helpless smile.
Lu Ming was speechless.
A—alright.
It turned out that your manager contributed to the green light of the Leisure Hotel as well!
“Give me ten blank arrows! One hundred strengthened arrows!”
Lu Ming decided to buy some arrows to test the effects.
“Okay.”
The burly man wrapped the arrows for Lu Ming.
However...
Just when Lu Ming was getting ready to leave, the burly man went up to him quietly, leaned in and asked in a low and somewhat rough voice. “Brother, do you want to buy a card?”
Lu Ming was speechless.
Brother, this should be my line?!
“What card?”
Lu Ming was expressionless.
Why did you steal the Card Creators’ business?
“An Enchanted Card.”
The burly man took out some cards quietly. “After using these cards on blank arrows, they have an enchanted effect. For example...”
“Green Mandala Card, two-star poison effect: three thousand yuan.”
“If you use this on the blank arrow, you can achieve the same effect as the poisoned sword that is worth five thousand yuan. You can save up one thousand yuan!” The burly man said honestly.
Lu Ming was speechless.
It turned out that he was talking about this type of card.
“Why don’t you put them directly in the glass cabinet? Won’t you make more money?”
Lu Ming was curious.
“It’s different.”
The burly man shook his head. “Those are from the company and the company earns a lot of commission. These cards are mine. I will earn whatever I sell.”
“Is that so?”
Lu Ming was deep in his thoughts.
True enough.
The higher authorities had policies and the regulators had their counter-measures.
Even the salesperson had their own sales channels.
Well...
Green Mandala Card?
This type of flagship store or company would definitely use all kinds of encryption in their products. Therefore the price would be very expensive.
It was similar to “Leviathan”.
The encryption technique was itself very costly!
However...
If he bought these cards from this guy...
“One thousand and five hundred yuan!”
Lu Ming slashed the price by half decisively.
“Deal.”
The burly man was decisive and he packed the cards for Lu Ming.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Damn!
How much was your production price?
That was why he hated dealing with salespeople!
...
Back at the shop.
Lu Ming had finally calmed down.
He had bow and arrows. He was considered as a qualified “shooter”.
Well...
A bogus three-star shooter.
Of course.
If he was more powerful, and he could make use of the Weapon Card to superimpose a longbow, he would not need to carry a longbow with him everywhere. By then, he would be considered formidable.
Although he could not use the Isolation Card for now, when he had enough energy, it would be a powerful tool.
If he continued to work on Burial Mound Card 2, it was not value for money!
Well...
Lu Ming thought about it. Perhaps it was time to work on restrictions.
