MTLNOVEL Chapter 1064: Do You All Have a Death Wish?
Wu Heng glanced around, "Just 50! If it's too little for you, keep it as a family heirloom."
All the markets were buying, naturally prices would drop a bit, so if at normal price, just buy directly at the stall.
"Ha!" The short person's eyes flickered, "Is it a Special Item or a tool that makes sound?"
"You sell me your stuff, and I'll tell you."
The short person sneered, "I wonder which fool would…"
Before the words were finished, a figure wrapped in a dirty cloak leapt to the table and poured out several pieces of Special Item fragments,"Torn ones are 2 gold, right? I'm selling all these to you."
Bella quickly checked the goods and paid, and the person turned around and left.
The short person who was sneering earlier, snorted and no longer looked this way.
By noon, people began to come one after another to sell at Wu Heng's stall. Although not many, there wasn't a break.
"I have two complete ones!"
"Two fragments, absolutely genuine!"
"Take mine first! I'm rushing to the casino to win back!"
The crowd was noisy.
50 gold is actually not a low price, just recently it's been fluctuating a bit, causing market prices to be higher.
At that moment, Retili came over, took out a food box, "Sir, I brought you lunch."
Saying this, she opened the food box and laid it out layer by layer on the table.
"Thank you!" Wu Heng expressed his thanks and started eating.
Then he asked Bella, "How much have you collected?"
"6 complete Special Items, 11 pieces," Bella said softly as she flipped through her record book.
"Hmm, not bad." Wu Heng nodded.
Xiao Xiao on the side said, "Uncle, I'll go over there to see if there's anything cheap to buy back."
Wu Heng felt there wasn't a need for so many people, saying, "I'll watch here, you go wander around nearby."
"Yay!" Xiao Xiao cheered, pulling Grandaze and Bella, ready to go shopping.
The four ghosts stood up and left the stall, while Wu Heng and Retili stayed, chatting and collecting items.
As the sky gradually dimmed, Wu Heng packed up all the things and took Retili back to the residence.
...
The Illuminating Stone cast the room in a dim yellow light.
Wu Heng sat at the table, tapping his fingers, placing Special Items one after another, twelve complete Special Items emitting a faint glow, thirty-six sets of Special Item fragments.
Wu Heng picked up two fragments and looked at them, "There might be fakes among these."
With damaged Special Items, Wu Heng couldn't see the attributes, so when collecting, some fakes might be mixed in.
Grandaze said, "It's not a big deal, as long as it doesn't affect the Heart of Molten Fire."
Wu Heng nodded, then said, "Tomorrow, we'll act separately."
"What's your plan?" Grandaze asked, and the other ghosts looked over.
Wu Heng said, "I'll go to the Heart of Molten Fire to melt items, you keep manning the stall collecting Special Items, keep the price unchanged."
Grandaze raised an eyebrow, "You have big ambitions, collecting and melting at the same time."
"Since we're here, might as well try several times!" Wu Heng continued to ask, "Who'll man the stall, who'll go with me to melt stuff."
Xiao Xiao was the first to raise her hand, "I'll man the stall!"
Grandaze said, "I'm fine with anything."
Wu Heng thought for a moment, "Then Grandaze, Bella, and Xiao Xiao will man the stall, Lady accompany me to the melting side."
"Alright!" Lady nodded.
The other ghosts also nodded in agreement.
With matters decided, Wu Heng returned to his bedroom to rest.
...
The next day, morning.
The carriage rolled over the gravel road, heading straight for the Heart of Molten Fire's cave.
In the carriage, Wu Heng fiddled with the Space Ring, inside were the collected Special Items.
Lady emerged beside him, whispering, "This time, wonder what things can come out?"
"I plan to bet, reach the extreme limit of the Heart of Molten Fire, then finish melting." Wu Heng shared his thoughts.
Lady said, "You got confidence?"
"A bit, but want to try anyway." Wu Heng said seriously.
Seeing progress was Wu Heng's advantage, already ahead of others, just lacking the final step to bet on luck.
If the bet doesn't succeed, Wu Heng would also accept it.
"Alright, if you've decided, go ahead!" Lady nodded.
One man one ghost chatted together.
The carriage suddenly stopped, Wu Heng pulled open the curtain and looked, it was now just at the position of the military camp.
Lady flew back from outside, saying, "Something's not quite right, those short guards won't allow the carriage inside, the driver is negotiating."
Wu Heng opened the door just as he got off the carriage, seeing a familiar figure striding urgently from the side gate, it was the dwarf official responsible for sealing the door and blowing the whistle.
At this moment, sweat hems the official's forehead, the brass whistle shaking violently on his chest, lowered voice, "Sir, a temporary closure of the mountain's ahead."
Wu Heng's eyes narrowed, looking at him seriously, saying, "You didn't tell the truth, speak properly!"
The short person's Adam's apple moved, leaning forward again and said, "A new Guard Commander issued the closure order, says the Heart of Molten Fire requires 10 days of recovery."
Ten days?
Wu Heng raised an eyebrow.
Ten days, his time for using the Heart of Molten Fire would be up.
Thinking quickly, he said, "This new Commander, saw the Heart of Molten Fire?"
"Saw it!" The short person replied, eyes showing a sudden realization.
The Heart of Molten Fire's progress reached 97.6%, only judging by appearance, it was infinitely close to the critical point. The opposite side must have seen the nature of the Heart of Molten Fire, wanted to use some means.
Wu Heng's face also turned cold, saying heavily, "At the time, you said dwarves are the most trustworthy, now I've put all materials into it, about to harvest, you tell me you're closing the mountain?"
Then, stared at him word by word, "Is it because Gold and Silver Island is easy to bully? Or is Wu Heng easy to bully? Or do you all want to die!"
