56. Card trading
At this moment, the iron door at the back was opened, and a tall man in a leather coat and a Pikachu mask walked out.
Everyone present stopped talking and turned their heads to look over.
This time, Shen Yu didn't need to be explained by the fat man, and he also knew that this person was most likely the initiator of the event and the person who provided the venue.
That level 20 high-level player!
At this time, the party scene was silent, and only the sound of people's breathing was left in the air.
The high-level player greeted everyone with a slight forehead, and finally stopped his gaze on Shen Yu.
"We've got a new member... Allow me to introduce myself.... My ID is called 'Summer River Finale'... You can also call me 'Mr. Xiahe'... You are welcome to join us..."
Shen Yu saw that the other party was greeting him, and he also stood up and nodded.
The fat man had submitted his information before he brought him.
Therefore, this "Mr. Xiahe" knows some basic information about Shen Yu, including his ID --- "suspect" who can't be on the stage.
"I believe that Chubby has already introduced you to the rules here, so.... The party begins. β
"Mr. Xia He" bowed slightly after speaking, and sat on the single sofa near the corner.
Shen Yu withdrew his gaze from the other party, and it was certain that this voice should belong to a man in his thirties.
He had just called Zhou Shu "Little Fat", which was obviously more than a year or two older than him.
And the bearing and calmness he showed also gave Shen Yu a little more trust in the safety of this party.
At the beginning of the party, the participants took out some things from their carry-on backpacks and placed them on the long table in front of them.
There is no connection between these things, some of them directly pull out cards, some take out unknown plants, and some put antique-like toys.
If Shen Yu hadn't known in advance that this was a black market among "players", he would have mistakenly thought that he had come to the antique market.
At this time, the fat man came to his side, and also took out a strange rag doll about twenty centimeters high, full of smoke gray, and facial features made of straw from his satchel, and placed it in front of him.
β.... You're kidding? β
Shen Yu looked sideways at him and asked.
The fat man was stunned at first, and then reacted.
"Hey, hey~~You don't understand this~~ In the eyes of 'craftsman' players, everything has its own value. Of course, you can't just take some plastic bags and put them out of the garbage, you must have a special existence. β
"Artisan players?"
Shen Yu pondered for a moment, speculating that such players probably have special abilities that others don't have, and can use special items to make cards.
Sure enough, just as the fat man posed for his ugly rag doll, the party initiator "Mr. Xia He" sitting in the corner changed his position.
He asked in a deep voice, "Chubby, what do you want to exchange for this rag doll?" β
Shen Yu didn't speak or ask questions, but quietly watched the upcoming transaction.
Although the fat man was wearing a mask, Shen Yu could still feel his lewd smile hidden under the mask.
"Hehe~~Brother Xiahe~ I want a card that focuses on defense~ This is what I lack now."
"Defensive cards?"
The man who was called "Brother Xia He" by the fat man was obviously stunned for a moment, and then chuckled: "Hehehe~ What, even your kid is serious?" In the past, you would only buy figurines for money. β
The fat man sneered and said, "I also have occasional times when I am motivated~~ After all, I am also a C-level powerhouse now~~"
"Oh? Before you know it, you're all C-grade? Well.... Not bad..."
Mr. Xia He looked the fat man up and down a few times, and then reached out and took out a wallet from the inner pocket of his leather coat.
He opened his wallet and rummaged through it for a while, drawing a card from it.
In this process, Shen Yu, who had excellent eyesight, stared.
Although it was only a corner of the wallet, Shen Yu was still sure that this "Mr. Xiahe" had at least ten or so cards in his wallet!
But... Why are his cards in wallets? Instead of blending into the three-no phone?
Maybe that's one of the things about making your own cards, right?
"Mr. Xiahe" handed the card in his hand to the fat man.
Shen Yu took the opportunity to see the pattern drawn on the card.
It was a card with a bronze border and the letter "E" printed on the corner.
But unlike the cards Shen Yu had seen before, there was no mysterious starlight entanglement around it.
"E-rank bronze defense card?"
The fat man Zhou Shu took the card and looked back and forth.
"Mr. Xiahe" explained in a low voice, "Its name is [Body Armor], and it can provide you with defense against bullet attacks for five minutes. β
Zhou Shu's eyes lit up, and then he asked, "What are the side effects?" β
"It has very few side effects, and after each use, you need to incorporate a certain amount of scrap iron into the card."
After listening to "Mr. Xiahe's" explanation, Shen Yu frowned slightly.
The side effects of these cards are really weird.
Zhou Shu apparently felt that this side effect was almost non-existent.
He said excitedly: "Brother Xiahe has made a deal~ This rag doll is yours~!" β
He put away the card, and the other man took the somewhat spooky rag doll.
After doing all this, Zhou Shu sat back beside Shen Yu and whispered, "Did you see it?" So a deal is done~! Because it is Brother Xia He who is trading with me, the 10% commission can also be exempted~! β
Shen Yu nodded wordlessly, probably knowing the purpose of this "Mr. Xiahe" who originally created this party.
It seems that he is trying to collect some of the materials he needs effectively.
Zhou Shu and the party convener completed the first transaction, giving the day a good start.
Soon, other "players" were asking for prices for things or cards they were interested in.
Shen Yu saw that two of them even applied to enter the back room to trade alone.
These people either exchanged cards for cards or bought cards with money, and the scene became quite lively for a while.
Of course, Shen Yu didn't find any cards that he was interested in for the time being, and his little money was really not enough to see here.
Like the one he had just witnessed.
The parties to the transaction seem to be quite confident in their own strength and did not choose to trade separately.
They directly took out the cards and red bills, and a D-class prop card was sold for two million in cash!
Although Zhou Shu said that this is a bit premium, this phenomenon seems to be very common among the "gamer" group.
After all, the cards that are useless to you are likely to be the uniqueness of other people's card promotions!
It is conceivable that the 500,000 deposits on his body are almost equal to nothing.... After all, he is still a poor man.
At the end of the party, when everyone was no longer in demand, a participant wearing a Peking Opera mask suddenly stood up.
"Guys, I'd like to ask for a message about the initial card promotion sequence. If anyone can provide a clue, I'll pay them a million cash or attack cards at once!
If anyone can provide me with the message content directly, I will pay a C-level item card and some money~! β
His words drew the attention of all the attendees.
Although everyone was wearing masks, Shen Yu still felt shock and surprise from under the masks.
At this time, Zhou Shu whispered to him: "Generally, few people at this level of gathering know the relevant information of the 'Card Promotion Sequence'~~ and the reward he gives is obviously not attractive enough. β
Shen Yu nodded, agreeing with the fat man's statement.
After all, the information about the "card promotion sequence" is priceless and cannot be measured by normal items.
"You haven't said what your initial sequence is?"
Zhou Shu asked on behalf of everyone.
The person who had just made the request hesitated for a moment, but still spoke: ".... D-Rank Enhancement Card....γGardenerγ...."
