Chapter 1140: [(845)] Restart the large order (thanks to the tail number 4917 for the reward support)

Flames ravaged through the mountains.

The blood reflecting human figures pooled into one.

Sun Mutaos gasped heavily.

This journey was really damn dangerous!

Luckily, they bought four attack formations from that store, otherwise the Vine Tree Devils that sprouted at the beginning could have wiped out half of their combat power.

“The Poison-Resisting Formation has half an hour left, grab the stuff, we’re pulling out.”

With a wave of his big hand, the ghost-faced man ordered everyone to retreat.

By the time they left the mountain range, it was already past 1 a.m.

Sun Mutaos was covered in bloodstains, but he was extremely excited.

This was truly a great victory!

They killed more fierce beasts than required, not only completing the mission but also gaining a lot of good loot.

“How many formations do you have left?”

A voice suddenly came.

Sun Mutaos snapped back to reality and saw it was the ghost-faced man, also the leader of their squad.

“I still have one Poison-Resisting Formation and one Little Ice Formation left.”

Hearing this, the ghost-faced man nodded, “Tomorrow… I mean this morning, take me to his store.”

Sun Mutaos nodded in understanding, but lowered his voice and said, “But he said the discount only lasts for the first three days, starting tomorrow there’s no discount… I’m worried.”

The ghost-faced man shook his head, “We’re buying a lot, don’t worry.”

Just ignore that discount talk.

When it really comes down to the cost price, the other party would be the first to complain.

“I’m planning to take another job,” the ghost-faced man suddenly said.

Everyone including Sun Mutaos looked at him in astonishment, “What do you mean?”

“A 150 Spirit Crystals deposit, a trip to Thunder Snake Valley. The client wants 20 Thunder Snake gallbladders, and there will be 400 Spirit Crystals afterwards. Are we going?”

“Yes! Damn the 550 Spirit Crystals, and we can even sell the hunted Thunder Snake carcasses later! That’s a big profit!”

“Then it’s decided! Tomorrow I and Big Sun will stock up, Crazy Dog you handle the delivery with two brothers,” the ghost-faced man arranged the tasks calmly.

At this moment, Sun Mutaos hesitated and said, “It’s cloudy today, light rain tomorrow, and it will be raining for the next week. If we rashly go to Thunder Snake Valley, it could be unfavorable for us.”

However, the ghost-faced man remained unruffled and said solemnly, “Let’s visit that store you mentioned tomorrow, there might be some surprises.”

Sun Mutaos nodded half convinced.

In his memory, that store was quite shabby.

Hope there’s a surprise.

…

Early the next morning.

When Old Liu Tou and his son arrived at the storefront, they found that the formation store next door was already open, and both father and son were somewhat perplexed.

[That’s quite early!]

However, Little Liu Zi, being more thoughtful, muttered to himself.

[Being early doesn’t help, do young people really think money is that easy to earn?]

Actually… his childhood dream was to become a Matrix Controller, and Old Liu Tou had spent quite a lot of money on this, but sadly it just didn’t work out.

Not long after father and son entered the store.

There was a knock on the door of Pei Jinye.

“Please come in.”

Pei Jinye’s voice came through.

Facing them, Sun Mutaos entered briskly with the ghost-faced man.

“Mr. Pei.” Sun Mutaos was very polite.

He had witnessed the capabilities of this man.

Before he could speak, his eyes were attracted by the new formation displayed in the counter.

He swallowed.

“Master Pei, what formation is this?”

Pei Jinye glanced and said, “Oh, you mean the Minor Thunder Array?”

“Thunder Array?” Sun Mutaos’ eyes widened instantly.

He turned his head and exchanged a glance with the man with the ghostly face, both discerning the excitement in each other’s eyes.

“May I ask Master Pei, how large is the area affected by the Minor Thunder Array when deployed?”

Sun Mutaos stared at Pei Jinye with great anticipation.

Pei Jinye was rather casual: “It depends on the specifics. If the location is naturally prone to electricity, the affected area will naturally be large. If it’s in a normal area, the diameter is about 1.2 meters. However, If you are really interested in the Minor Thunder Array, I suggest you pair it with a minor Lightning Attraction Array…”

“Lightning Attraction Array?” Sun Mutaos disregarded the word ‘minor’.

He felt that this Array was tailor-made for them.

“Can the Lightning Attraction Array be used as an attack Array on its own?” the man with the ghostly face couldn’t help but ask.

Pei Jinye looked at him, not at all uncomfortable with the ghostly patterns on his face; he has seen plenty of those bizarre and scary designs.

“Of course.”

“What about its deployment range? I want to know its cost-effectiveness compared to the Minor Thunder Array,” the man with the ghostly face spoke straightforwardly and resoundingly.

Pei Jinye replied amicably: “Naturally, its range cannot compare to the Minor Thunder Array, as the prices reflect. The Minor Thunder Array is priced at 50 Spirit Crystals, whilst the Lightning Attraction Array is only 12 Spirit Crystals. However, I can assure you, when paired together in the right circumstances, their combined destructive power will definitely exceed those of the high-rank Arrays costing over a hundred.”

His words were accurate.

Arrays involving Thunder Elements were always expensive.

If the deployment range of the Minor Thunder Array was only 2.4 meters, asking for fifty Spirit Crystals indeed wasn’t too expensive.

The man with the ghostly face fell into deep thought.

He was calculating.

Starting tomorrow, it would rain continuously for a week.

Assuming the weather forecast won’t be wrong, the destructive power of the Minor Thunder Array coupled with the Lightning Attraction Array might even force him, a late-stage Planet Level cultivator, to flee far away.

“Do you also have Fire and Ice Arrays?” asked the man with the ghostly face decisively.

“I have one set of Minor Fire Formation left and two sets of Minor Ice Formation. Of course, if you’re willing to pay extra, I can rush to make some more of these Arrays for you,” Pei Jinye glanced at the time: “You can pick them up this evening.”

“How much extra? And how many more sets can you make? I have a large demand,” the man with the ghostly face asked in a deep tone.

“30 Spirit Crystals, and I promise to make four more sets for you, whether it’s the Minor Fire Formation or the Minor Ice Formation, it’s up to you to distribute the share,” Pei Jinye didn’t ask for much.

“Thirty…” Sun Mutaos gasped.

That was lavish.

The man with the ghostly face didn’t immediately say it was expensive, but instead said: “Master Pei, name your price for everything we discussed just now.”

Pei Jinye glanced at Sun Mutaos, smiled, and said: “Seven sets including Minor Fire Formation and Minor Ice Formation total up to 35 Spirit Crystals, plus one set of Minor Lightning Attraction Array, one set of Minor Thunder Array, totaling 127 Spirit Crystals… Given our pleasant collaboration, I’ll give you a 9% discount, rounding down to 115 Spirit Crystals. How does that sound?”

Sun Mutaos felt his heart couldn’t take it.

He dared not speak.

He could only look cautiously at the man with the ghostly face, waiting for his opinion.

The man with the ghostly face, speaking succinctly, said: “110, how about that?”

Pei Jinye looked at him, the two exchanged gazes for a moment, and he nodded: “Alright, consider it making a friend.”

The atmosphere immediately relaxed.

Although Sun Mutaos was heartbroken, he was more expectant.

With these attack Arrays, not to mention Thunder Snake Valley’s snakes and beasts, even slaying larger creatures would be sufficient!

The man with the ghostly face promptly took out forty Spirit Crystals, stating succinctly: “Here’s the deposit.”

Pei Jinye didn’t immediately take the money, instead, he took out a contract, “Sign here, come to pick up the items after 5 PM.”

After speaking, he then took the forty Spirit Crystals.

The man with the ghostly face signed and suddenly asked, “You’re beginning with ‘minor’ in each instance, do you also have Big Formations?”

“We do, but I’m short on materials, you can try if you provide your own,” Pei Jinye said offhandedly.

The man with the ghostly face understood and said solemnly: “Looking forward to our continued collaboration.”

Pei Jinye smiled slightly: “Looking forward to it.”

The two shook hands.

By their side, Sun Mutaos envied Pei Jinye.

Who wouldn’t envy leading a life where one could make Banknotes from the comfort of an air-conditioned room?

Indeed, technical jobs are the most sought after.

…

As the man with the ghostly face was leaving with Sun Mutaos, he took a phone call.

He said, “I’ll be right there, tell the brothers not to panic.”

At the door, a figure pretending to sweep curiously looked towards Pei Jinye’s room, unexpectedly meeting his gaze, he awkwardly smiled and quickly hurried back into his room.

[What a hundred? I don’t understand… But why don’t they come take a look at my place? All these attack charms are about to collect dust soon!!!]
