Chapter 137 - Enchanted Dragon Scales
'Huh?'
Lucas frowned at the sudden system notification before saying, 'I don't want to activate it until I settle everything in the town.'
For the current Hellmore family, a level 4 evil portal was an easy thing to stop; however, it would raise the suspicions of many if a second evil portal opened in the Silverstone town in a row.
Nevertheless, Lucas had other plans with the [Evil portal device]. So, he put his thoughts of using the device on hold.
'I should wait until I get my own dungeon.'
With that thought in his head, Lucas checked the device more closely to see how it was manufactured; however, he was unable to find anything other than the face that looked like an eyeball of an evil spirit beast.
'Is this a body part of an evil spirit beast? Then, why is it called a 'Device'?'
Lucas got many questions; however, he was unable to come to a solid conclusion for any of his questions.
'Ding,
[Infinite eye] wants to send a message to you.
'Ding,
[Lucky rose] wants to send a message to you.
'Ding,
[Holy dragon] wants to send a message to you.
While Lucas was wasting his time on the [Evil portal device], he received three system notifications that made him reveal a slight smile on his face.
'I got a reply sooner than I thought.'
Without thinking much, Lucas knew what those system notifications were and slowly opened the exchange platform before clickling on the inbox.
In the inbox, he has three new unread messages.
[Infitne eye]
[I have a recipe for a pill. I will post all the information regarding it below. Check it and let me know how many fruits you are willing to exchange]
Item name:- Energy replenish pill
Use:- A pill that can instantly replenish 100 units of Knight energy.
Limitations:- 1) These pills can only replenish Knight energy.
2) A user can consume only 10 pills in a day.
'Huh? A recipe for [Energy replenish pill]?'
First, Lucas checked the messages of [Infinite eye] and felt it was a good pill recipe that could generate a good revenue for him.
Lucas was not worried about getting scammed because all the details of the items were evaluated by the exchange platform.
'Anyway, let's see whether there are other good items.'
Since there were others who were willing to trade his dark ember fruits, of course, Lucas wants to check their items.
[Lucky rose]
[I don't have any talent crystals or pill recipes; however, I can give a Mana fruit in exchange for 10 dark ember fruits.]
Unlike [Infinte eye], [Lucky rose] sent only one message informing about everything.
'Nice. 10 dark ember fruits for a Mana fruit. It is a great deal.'
When he saw the proposal of the [Lucky rose], Lucas was tempted to accept the deal because he felt a mana fruit is much more useful to him in the short term compared to the pill recipe which would take a lot of time before he could gain any profits from it.
'Still, I have to check what the last person wants to trade my fruits with.'
With that thought in his mind, Lucas opened the third chat belonging to [Holy dragon]
[Hold dragon]
[I don't have anything you want, but I hope you are interested in [Enchanted dragon scales]. One scale for one dark ember fruit.]
[Qunatity:- 100+]
'Huh? [Enchanted dragon scales]?'
Lucas raised his brows at the items that the [Holy dragon] wants to exchange the fruits for.
[Send me the information on the scales.]
Even though Lucas thought he would not be buying these scales today, he felt like he needed to know about them so that, in the future, he might have a use for them.
Soon, he replied to [Holy dragon] asking for the information on the scales.
[Ok]
Item name:- Enchanted dragon scale
Use:- Can withstand three full powered attacks from a rank 5 spirit beast or Higher-level experts.
Remaining uses:- three
As though the [Holy dragon] was waiting for Lucas' repy, he replied back in an instant with information on the scale.
'What the hell? These scales can without three attacks of rank 5 spirit beasts? Moreover, he said he has more than 100 of them. That was quite a treasure trove just like my dark ember fruits.'
Lucas muttered to himself and came to a conclusion, 'Even though these scales can be useful for the current me, I feel Mana fruit is still a good item to trade.'
[These scales are quite useful for me; however, I liked the item from the other system host.]
[Not a problem]
Lucas smoothly ended the chat with the [Holy dragon] before replying to [Infinite eye].
[If you don't mind, can I buy your pill recipe next month?]
Even though Lucas didn't want to reply to [Infinite eye], Lucas wanted that pill recipe. So, he thought, he might ask whether that system host waits for a month or not.
[Infite eye:- Bro, your item is quite rare. So, of course, I will wait.]
[Lonewolf:- Okay then. I will contact you in the next month.]
Once again, Lucas ended the chat smoothly and before opening the chat where he was going to buy the item.
[Lonewolf:- I accept your deal.]
In exchange for one [Mana fruit], 10 [Dark ember fruits] were a little cheap because a [Mana fruit] can instantly increase 1000 units of the magic sea; however, a [Dark ember fruit] can only increase 100 units of dark profession's seas.
Even though 10 fruits might seem equivalent; however, when a same person consumed the [Dark ember fruits], the efficiency would decrease. So, in the end, he or she would only gain less than 500 units of their sea capacity.
'Still, the dark ember fruits can be consumed infinite times; however, mana fruit can only be consumed one time per a single person and only a mage can eat it.'
[Deal]
Lucky rose accepted the deal without wasting much time.
'Ding,
Ten dark ember fruits are sent to the [Lucky rose] through the exchange platform.
'Ding,
The host received a [Mana fruit] from [Lucky rose] through the exchange platform.
