Chapter 44, Style 5: Falling into mud, done!
"Trade two things?"

Qian Duoduo was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Master Lin Zhan, you are too polite. Just tell me what you need me to do for you."

Lin Zhan said calmly, "I want an SS-level long sword and an SS-level protective suit."

This was a sudden idea on his part. He just sold the sword to Qian Duoduo, but the sword worth 190 billion was only sold for 50 billion. This had a great impact on him.

"Maybe, I can buy second-hand weapons and protective clothing, so the money I have may be enough!" This was the thought that arose in Lin Zhan's mind.

"SS-level long sword and protective clothing?" Qian Duoduo was slightly stunned.

"Yes, that's right. An SS-class long sword should be longer than 2 meters. The protective suit should include a full set of combat boots, arm guards, vests, etc."

"Wow, good stuff." Qian Duoduo couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. "Both the long sword and the protective suit need to be SS grade?"

As a rule of thumb, protective clothing is much taller than weapons like swords.

The SS-level longsword is not so difficult to get, a second-hand one can be bought for 400 to billion, but the protective suit will cost billion.

Qian Duoduo took a long breath, "Master Lin Zhan, I have to explain the situation to you. The price of SS-level protective clothing is as high as 400 billion. Even if the Ares Palace buys it, it will cost at least 500 billion. In other words, the long sword and protective clothing will cost about billion Chinese yuan."

Lin Zhan scanned the Thunder God Tribe's mall and had a rough idea of ​​the prices. Although he had less than 300 billion on hand, he still said confidently, "I want an SS-level long sword and protective clothing."

Qian Duoduo shook his head and laughed, "I'm sorry, Master Lin Zhan, I happen to have an SS-level long sword in my hand. Because of the friendship between us, I will sell it to you for 80 billion. I will have someone send it to you for your inspection in a while."

"As for protective clothing, I don't have any in stock, so I need to contact channels to purchase it."

Lin Zhan smiled slightly, he knew this would be the result. Although the SS-level protective suit was very expensive, it was consumed very quickly. Warriors who purchased this level of protective suit usually went to fight with the Uncrowned Beast King or even King-level monsters. It was a consumable and was consumed no slower than weapons.

These are in-demand items on the second-hand market, and most likely Qian Duoduo doesn’t have them.

Lin Zhan said, "Well, if we don't have SS-level protective clothing, we can buy an SS-level combat vest!"

In fact, he really couldn't afford a full set of SS-level protective clothing, but he really needed this level of protective clothing to protect himself in fighting against monsters.

My strength has increased too fast. I might have to fight with high-level lords and the Uncrowned Beast King when I go out again. I still have to buy protective clothing to save my life.

Qian Duoduo heard this and said with a smile, "Give me a few days and I will try my best to buy it! The combat vest is the core component of the protective suit and is worth half of the protective suit. The best price is estimated to be around 160 billion to 170 billion."

Lin Zhan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. 170 billion + 90 billion equals 260 billion, and he just happened to have that much money.

After more than ten minutes, Qian Duoduo's subordinate Lao Wan walked in with a long box.

"Lord Lin Zhan, this is your SS-level longsword. Based on your previous habits, I chose the most similar one and brought it to you." Qian Duoduo handed the long box to Lin Zhan.

Lin Zhan took the box, opened it and saw a heavy sword shining with a dark metallic luster lying there quietly.

"Good sword!" Lin Zhan picked it up and looked at it carefully.

The heavy sword is about 2 meters long, with a blade of 1.7 meters. The sharp edges on both sides are glowing, and there is not a single flaw or damage on the sword.

"Name your price." Lin Zhan waved it a few times and started playing with it lovingly. He was not worried at all that his attitude would cause Qian Duoduo to raise the price temporarily, unless he didn't want to cooperate with him anymore.

Sure enough, Qian Duoduo smiled and said, "80 billion Chinese yuan. I'll sell it to you at the purchase price." Lin Zhan nodded, without any pretense, and directly transferred the money to Qian Duoduo.

"It's a pleasure to work with you." For the first time, Lin Zhan took the initiative to extend his hand and shake hands with Qian Duoduo.

"Mr. Lin Zhan is such a big customer, so I'll need your help in the future." Qian Duoduo shook hands with Lin Zhan enthusiastically, "Don't worry, I'll take care of your combat vest right away, and I'll be able to get back to you in five days at most."

Lin Zhan nodded, stood up and left with his sword on his back.

Under the starry sky, the wilderness is silent.

Lin Zhan felt the gentle breeze blowing and stood there with his sword in hand, his heart as calm as water.

He enjoyed this feeling very much. This sense of tranquility where he was the only one between heaven and earth made him addicted.

"Whoo~"

At a certain moment, Lin Zhan's hand holding the sword moved, the tip of the sword trembled, and a flash of light flashed. Because the sword light was too fast, a flower was left in the air. It was particularly clear in the dark night, and then slowly dissipated.

This is the first move of the Luoying Sword Technique, a bud about to bloom.

Then the sword moves changed from slashing to stabbing, one after another.

Then there are the shadows of flowers and butterflies, the withering and flourishing years,
One sword, two swords, the cold light was like snow, spreading across the wilderness.

I don't know how long it took, Lin Zhan's sword suddenly changed and shook, and the sword light turned into broken stars, floating in the air. The 5th move, broken into mud, was done!
There are 2 more moves to fully comprehend the Luoying Sword Technique. By then, it will reach the S-level skill. Donating it to a martial arts gym will earn you a large amount of contribution points and a steady stream of funds.

The next morning, Lin Zhan was awakened by Zhu Cong's call.

"Brother Lin, your business is done. I have been worrying about you for the past few days. You have to thank me for your behavior. How about we celebrate at Huaxi Club at noon? It's your treat!"

Zhu Cong always looks full of energy.

"I've done my job?" Lin Zhan had just gotten up and his sleepiness had not yet completely dissipated.

"That's right, I have secured an opportunity for you, an opportunity to join the 'Elite Training Camp' of the Raiden Martial Arts School!" Zhu Cong had an expression as if he was praising me.

"Elite training camp?" Lin Zhan shuddered, all his sleepiness disappeared. He had sold one before, and one was worth 500 billion!
Then, Lin Zhan was a little unconvinced, "Can you get a spot in the elite training camp?!"

That quota was eyed by many aristocratic families. Zhu Cong's family might be very powerful. It was a bit outrageous to have a mid-level war god-level strongman as a bodyguard. But he definitely didn't have the energy to get this.

"I was a little surprised too. I originally asked Grandpa to get you a place in the ordinary training camp, but I didn't expect that after hearing your name, he would directly agree to get you a place in the elite training camp!"

Zhu Cong said this, and looked at Lin Zhan strangely for a few times, and asked with a hint of suspicion, "You are not my grandfather's illegitimate son, right? I have to call you uncle?"

"Get lost, I don't have a nephew like you!" Lin Zhan said unhappily. He was really defeated and he helped someone to recognize someone as his grandfather.

"Yeah, I also think it's impossible. After all, you don't have the 'round' gene of our Zhu family at all!" Zhu Cong looked at you carefully and made a "conclusion".

"Someone will come to test you in a few days, so be prepared!" After saying that, Zhu Cong left.
