C3465 Vermillion Bird Ghost City
The Golden Swallowing Beast basically didn't reject him, but he still didn't dare to touch the beast. If it was an ordinary beast, he wouldn't need to be so careful, but the Golden Swallowing Beast couldn't. This thing was too proud.
After paying such a huge price, Dongfang Qingyu felt that he should still treat it seriously.
"Come, I'll give you something delicious to eat." Dongfang Qingyu poured out a kind of light blue metal. The color was not strange. What was strange was the pattern on the golden metal. It was like a butterfly flapping its wings and flying. Therefore, this metal was called Butterfly Gold.
Butterfly Gold was not used to make weapons. This metal was not very hard, but it had some elasticity. That's right, this metal felt like rubber.
It was mostly used to forge armor, boots, gloves, and other close-fitting equipment. It felt very good.
This heavy metal was sent over by Hong Auction House. It was said that this metal had a very good texture. It was the favorite food of monsters that liked to bite metal.
Whoosh -
The Metal-Devouring Beast took the initiative to jump over. Its eyes were filled with urgency. It glanced at Dongfang Qingyu and saw that he didn't object to it, so it couldn't wait to bite him.
Creak... Creak...
The sound was different. When he was chewing on the ore earlier, the sound was' Kacha kacha '.
The butterfly gold was bought by the Hong Auction House itself and was not prepared to be auctioned. Therefore, the procedures were relatively simple. It was directly given to Dongfang Qingyu. No one needed to agree to it, but the amount was not too much. There were only over two thousand pieces in total.
Dongfang Qingyu had already activated his connections to search for the metal. He could definitely buy a lot of other metals, but he estimated that the butterfly gold was not much.
Vermilion Bird City.
After Dongfang Qingyu agreed to cooperate, Splash-ink to be Fish Waiting for Three Lives's mind shifted to the crystal head. She stopped concocting the antibody medicine. Now... In the entire Yellow Flame Territory, the only thing that had antibodies was the Black Tortoise City. He didn't have enough of the Black Tortoise City, so he naturally wouldn't be able to supply it to anyone else. Over 60% of the players in Vermilion Bird City were infected by the influenza, and the entire city was covered in a foul smell.
A person vomiting could smell a room and tens of millions of people vomiting. The smell was very strong. Those who weren't sick either ran away or logged off. They simply couldn't stand it.
The only one who still insisted on staying was probably the Reverend. It wasn't the Reverend's great love, but the Reverend's love for wealth. In the other cities, after treating a patient, it might only cost 2-3 gold coins. In Zhuque City, it would cost at least 4 gold coins to cure a patient. If it was higher, 5 gold coins was also possible.
Treating 5 patients a day would earn at least 20 gold coins. Which Reverend would not take action? The prices of Vermillion Bird City had also reached an outrageous level, and a large number of players had been lost. As a result, many jobs were left unattended. If there were fewer people, the price would be higher. The players of Suzaku said that they couldn't live and that they weren't sick. There was still a chance to leave. The players who were sick couldn't leave. No city was willing to accept patients.
There were also people with high expectations who came to Suzaku to buy it. Many people were also patients. When they were at their most difficult times, if they could help, it would be a huge favor. However, those who were qualified to enjoy such an investment could only be talented people. Those players who did not have special skills or high levels could only open their eyes wide. Poor and helpless.
The investors were not charity organizations. Players who did not have skills did not even look at them. The cruelty of society and the reality of human nature were fully displayed at this moment.
"Help me out. I will repay you ten times more in the future." Warrior, who was lying on the hospital bed, had already lost his weight. He was a unlucky player. After the treatment, he got infected for the second time in less than three days. It was even worse. In his eyes, even if he used all his strength, his voice was just like a mosquito.
"Did your Trade Profession reach the Master Level?" The person who came to pick someone asked.
... "No!" Warrior practiced cooking, sewing, and blacksmithing at the same time, but his energy was limited. The result of practicing a lot was that he knew a little about each profession, but he was not good at it.
"Are you level 120?" When the staff asked this question, they had already shot Warrior to death in their hearts. Players above level 120 were all famous people, even if he did not know them. He had also heard that the person in front of him was very unfamiliar. He did not have any impression of him. 99. 99% was possibly a mediocre VW. As expected, Warrior's weak voice sounded.
... "No."
"I'm sorry, you don't meet the requirements of our company." The staff member was very polite. After saying that, he quickly left. He was wearing a special protective device. He was wearing a double mask, but he was not at ease. He did not dare to stay in front of the patient for too long.
"I have potential!" Warrior shouted loudly. His voice was not as loud as usual. The staff member seemed to have not heard him and went in another direction.
"When I recover from my illness, I will try my best to be a superior person. When the time comes, I will kill all of you, kill, and kill all of you!" Warrior's face was twisted, and he shouted crazily in his heart.
It was humiliating to be rejected. In addition to the pain in his body, it was understandable that he was twisted in his heart. The people who had been selected knew that very well. Therefore, those who had been sentenced to death would not take another look at him.
There were hundreds of people dying in Suzaku every minute. These people... Some of them had to commit suicide because they were too sick. Some were killed by the virus. There were no players in the streets or alleys. The teahouses and restaurants were extremely quiet. The entire city was like a ghost town. The players who came to Suzaku all said that Suzaku was filled with dark energy.
Although the rain in the sky wasn't large, it accumulated over a long period of time. The water on the ground was still very heavy, and there was a lot of garbage floating on the unattended streets. Garbage blocked the sewers, and the entire city seemed to be submerged in water. The manager of Vermilion Bird City knew that this situation was not conducive to the survival of the patients, but he couldn't find anyone to work with. He couldn't just clean the sewers by himself, right? He could only let it go. This was also one of the reasons why the air was filled with a foul smell.
"Brothers, everyone, open your eyes wide. This is Suzaku. The former entertainment paradise is now like a ghost town, and you're not here. Luckily, you managed to avoid the stench. If you were there, you would know... This kind of stench is like the feces fermenting in the toilet for three days and three nights. I have already stuffed my nose, but my stomach is still churning, and I have the urge to spurt it out at any moment. Old men, if I make any indecent movements later... A young man dressed in gaudy clothing was running around with a camera in his hand. He was an internet celebrity on a certain platform.
It wasn't accurate to say that no one dared to come to Suzaku. However, the bloggers and stream experts were very interested in Suzaku and risked their lives to enter the live stream. There were also many people in the audience.
The pain of the patients became a tool for some people to earn money.
...
The only person in the Forbidden City who knew how to refine pills, regardless of the hardships of the world. However, the people who worked could not be ignored by the officials of the five ministries and the prime minister. The Minister of Finance, known as the God of Wealth, came to the Black Tortoise City in a low profile manner. When his subordinate came to report... Dongfang Qingyu was feeding the Metal-Devouring Beast and heard the name of the Minister of Finance. He was stunned.
"Please, please." Dongfang Qingyu was a little excited. He had never dealt with the Minister of Finance before. However, he had heard of this God of Wealth for a long time. He was in charge of the resources and money of the Yan Huang Empire. Putting aside the importance of power, there were many rare treasures... He was the most important person in the world.
