Chapter 1005 529: How Are You Covered in Knock-off Stuff, Still Using It to Scam People
"Be careful, a big guy is about to come out." Shura said solemnly after slaying a zombie.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a young giant forcibly squeezing out from the doorway, and a strong stench began to spread.
Although the previous zombies looked like moving corpses, they were actually ghosts and didn't have any foul odor.
This zombie resembling a young giant, however, was a bit different.
"Part of an elite monster or a boss?" The Grand Heavens keenly sensed something wrong with the stench. A poison DEBUFF appeared on his body from time to time, but due to the powerful and overwhelming aura provided by Gu Shanhai, it dissipated immediately.
"Both." Shura unhesitatingly charged at the giant zombie.
He found the stench had no effect on him, at most, it was just a bit smelly, but such odor was still within his tolerable limits.
"Little bug, is it you who dares to challenge the great..."
The giant zombie couldn't finish its sentence before Shura decapitated it with a single stroke, and its large head rolled on the ground before being swallowed whole by Tai Sui Gu.
The rest of the corpse also fell to the ground with a crash, looking somewhat comical.
"I said, at least let the guy finish his line. He tried so hard to act cool before dying, but you wouldn't even let him have that." The Grand Heavens remarked sarcastically.
"Next time, next time I'll definitely let him act cool." Shura answered perfunctorily.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you're really compassionate." The Grand Heavens also praised.
"So far, *** your enhancement is really strong, but you wouldn't happen to be holding back, would you?" Shura casually picked up the giant zombie remains and tossed them toward Tai Sui Gu, then asked suspiciously.
He noticed that Gu Shanhai always liked to be coy, acting oblivious or helpless until a critical moment when he would pull off something brilliant and defeat others effortlessly.
If you force him a bit, he can do anything, and even better than you.
"Ah, no, I'm at my limit." Gu Shanhai replied with a distressed face, indicating there's no way he's holding back.
Seeing Gu Shanhai's expression, the Grand Heavens looks certain: "*** means we go all out, he's got our backs."
"No, don't misinterpret, I'm just a life-support and auxiliary player, how can I back up you two combat players." Gu Shanhai helplessly protested, indeed the Grand Heavens was very perceptive.
"But you fight better than us." The Grand Heavens insisted.
"Come on, where did you see that I fight better than you guys? Also, miss—there's a leftover monster there." Gu Shanhai retorted without hesitation, urging the Grand Heavens to pay attention.
"Regarding you being more capable in fighting, I indeed concur, just take that Seven-star Whip and Purple Gold Gourd, they are far from ordinary equipment." Shura calmly stated, if not for the bonuses obtained from Gu Shanhai's aura, a single whip lash from him would have done him in.
Excuses like only usable once with a long cooldown are unrealistic; Shura suspected these pieces were imbued with hit guarantees. If it were anyone else, he might not think so, but on a wealthy dog like Gu Shanhai, surely they did.
Moreover, he felt Gu Shanhai definitely had more cards up his sleeve beyond just these two, he was a reserved person who disliked fighting; otherwise, he unquestionably deserves the title of the top player.
"Want it? I'll sell to you cheaply." Gu Shanhai chirped.
These items were merely mediocre in value to Gu Shanhai; the Seven-star Whip was self-made, the Purple Gold Gourd was crafted on the spot, hardly classified as weapons, more like toys.
"You'll sell these?" The Grand Heavens was shocked too, such gear was unquestionably an ace, but Gu Shanhai's willingness to sell indicated he had even better ones and could craft replacements anytime.
"Sure, if the price is right, I'll even sell Tai Sui Gu." Gu Shanhai replied without hesitation.
"..." The Grand Heavens was at a loss for words, no wonder you're so affluent, who knows how much NPC wealth you've accumulated this way.
Previously, he thought Tai Sui Gu was extraordinary, but upon Gu Shanhai offering it for sale, he reckoned it was likely a mass-produced item, the sole challenge being cultivation.
As luck would have it, with zombies serving as nutrients now, breeding costs were slashed.
"No use buying it, but I'm somewhat interested in the Seven-star Whip." Shura didn't think much of Tai Sui Gu; though it seemed easy enough to raise, eating anything in sight was too unsightly. It was really just a blob of flesh resembling Tai Sui, and he had aesthetic concerns.
"Old rule, I give you the item, pay what you think it's worth." Gu Shanhai handed the Seven-star Whip to Shura, tossing it casually, then retrieved another one, asking the Grand Heavens: "Want it? There's one left."
"I have every reason to suspect your inventory holds 999 Seven-star Whips." The Grand Heavens jested, while inwardly cursing: 'He hid them that deeply.'
Earlier, he had caught a fleeting look of surprise on Shura's face, showing the item's true worth.
"No way, a stack of 999 is too exaggerated." Gu Shanhai replied, after all, who would bother crafting so many identical toys.
