Immortal in The Apocalypse

Hearing what Ren Yuan said, the man frowned and said, "I will go take a look first. If what you said is true, then I will come back to buy this weapon. You must keep it for me."

Ren Yuan shook his head and said, "I can’t do that. What if you don’t come back? Didn’t I keep this weapon in vain?"

After hearing what he said, the man sneered and said, "Are you afraid that your lies will be exposed when I go to the mission hall or trading hall for verification? That’s why you forced me to buy this weapon?"

Ren Yuan was too lazy to talk to him, so he took back the gun in the man’s hand and said, "If you don’t have money to buy it, don’t stand here blocking my business."

After hearing his words, the man became furious out of embarrassment and shouted angrily, "Looking for death!"

He raised his hand and activated his ability. After a few seconds, a fireball formed in his hand, and then he threw the fireball towards Ren Yuan. Seeing that man suddenly taking action against Ren Yuan, everyone gasped in surprise.

Before the fireball got close to him, Ren Yuan covered his palm with his metal ability, then caught the small fireball, and crushed it effortlessly.

Psh~

When he opened his palm, all that was left of the fireball was a thin stream of smoke. Seeing that his strongest attack did not leave even a trace on Ren Yuan’s palm, the man instantly turned pale.

Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he subconsciously took a few steps back while saying, "Bro... Brother, I was just joking. Pl... Please don’t take it to heart."

Ren Yuan stared at him coldly and said, "Fuck off!"

The man nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice and said, "Thank you, thank you."

Seeing his fleeing back, everyone was amused by his pathetic appearance. After a while, the crowd dispersed, leaving only a few people left who were interested in the items on the stall. Ren Yuan looked up and saw Zhu Lin eating meat skewers and browsing his products.

He sat down on the low stool and asked, "Miss, what weapon are you looking for?"

Zhu Lin raised her eyes to look at him, pointed at the gun that failed to be sold just now and said, "How much is this weapon?"

Ren Yuan saw her pointing at the hand gun and said, "Three second rank ordinary crystal nucleus. If you have a metal element crystal nucleus, one second rank metal element crystal nucleus is enough."

Hearing that he wanted crystal nucleus instead of water and food, Zhu Lin thought about it and asked, "Can I pay with water or food?"

As her regular customer, Ren Yuan knew that she had plenty of water and food. But since the news about the energy contained in the crystal nucleus can improve the ability level of the supernatural beings spreads around, the value of the crystal nucleus has increased to unprecedented heights.

Zhu Lin found that he was not interested in food and water, so she asked, "Can you tell me why you want crystal nucleus instead of water or food?"

Thinking that she wanted to know the market value of food and water, Ren Yuan asked, "Have you heard about the recent news spreading around the base?"

Zhu Lin shook her head and said, "I have been very busy these days and have not left my house."

Hearing her answer, Ren Yuan smiled slightly and said, "No wonder I haven’t seen you at the night market these days."

Seeing that Zhu Lin was silent, he caught lightly and said, "Two days ago, the base released three important pieces of news. The first news is that the meat of mutated beasts and some parts of the mutated plants can be eaten, but only some non-toxic parts can be eaten safely. The second news is, mutants’ body parts can be used to create stronger weapons and armor."

Then he pointed to the weapons on the cloth and said, "Thanks to this information, I found another way to earn money."

Zhu Lin nodded to him and said, "Congratulations."

Seeing her calm and serious expression when congratulating him, Ren Yuan smiled and said, "Thank you. The third news is the most important news to us."

Thinking about the two news he just told her, Zhu Lin thought for a moment, smiled slightly and said, "The third news should be about the energy contained in the crystal nucleus, which can improve the ability level, right?"

After hearing what she said, Ren Yuan asked, "Since you already know, why do you still ask?"

Zhu Lin shook her head and said, "I don’t know anything about the news released by the base, but I can guess from your decision to only accept crystal nucleus as payment. As a supernatural being, having higher level abilities is more important than food and water."

After listening to her explanation, Ren Yuan was speechless and thought to himself: ’Can you really guess this information out from our brief conversation?’

Seeing his doubtful expression, Zhu Lin said, "I remember that if I want to use this weapon, I need something else."

Ren Yuan nodded, took out a small box from his backpack, and said, "I also sell bullets. If you buy this gun, I can add a box of bullets as a bonus since you are my first customer."

Zhu Lin thought for a while, took out three second rank ordinary crystal nucleus from the ice flower pendant, placed it on the cloth, and said, "Deal."

When Ren Yuan handed the gun and a box of bullets to Zhu Lin, others also saw their successful transaction. Seeing Zhu Lin walk away after buying the gun, other people who were browsing Ren Yuan’s merchandise immediately competed with each other to buy weapons. If they don’t buy such a cheap weapon right now, there must be something wrong with their brains.
