Chapter 222: Sweeping the Rune Shop

Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL

The shop owner picked up a magic crystal coin with a trembling hand and looked at it carefully for a long time. Then, he raised his head and looked at Joelson, his eyes full of shock.

He used a crystal rune coin to pay the bill.

Who Was this guy?!

Joelson couldn’t help but frown. “Please hurry up.”

The shop owner woke up from his shock and quickly put the magic crystal coins in his pocket as if he was afraid that someone else would snatch them away.

“Wait… Wait a moment.”

A moment later, Joelson walked out of the rune shop with a bag full of runestones and Connie, who had yet to completely recover from her shock. Behind him, the rune shop owner kept bowing with a fawning face.

Dozens of wooden runes and dozens of stone runes only cost four magic crystal coins.

In this rune land.

A smile appeared on Joelson’s face. It was really a huge treasure.

He glanced at Connie and asked indifferently, “Where’s the next rune shop?”

Connie led Joelson there.

Not long after.

The owner of the rune shop looked at the magic crystal coins in his hand with shining eyes, then looked at Joelson’s disappearing figure.

He sighed in his heart, “Where did this big shot come from? is he too rich to use crystal rune coins to buy low-level rune stones, or is there something wrong with his brain?”?

Looking back at the empty rune shop, the shop owner laughed out loud.

No matter what, he had made a lot of money.

In the next half a day, Joelson and Connie swept through more than half of the rune shops in Meteor city.

In the end, they obtained more than 160 wooden runes and more than 30 stone runes.

2

There were all kinds of elemental runes. The five elements were the most common, followed by the metal element and electric element, which were the more precious elemental rune stones.

If converted to the power of laws, there were more than 200 of them. If he could get rid of some of the elemental laws that Joelson could not use, for the time being, it would be enough for his strength to advance greatly.

Joelson was very satisfied.

However, he did not have such a big harvest for a long time.

There were no more than ten runestones in Meteor City, and half of them were directly emptied by Joelson.

The entire rune stone market in Meteor City was in a state of shortage.

One could imagine how much the price of an ordinary rune stone would rise in the next few days.

At this time, there might be many people secretly cursing Joelson for destroying the market.

Of course, Joelson didn’t care, and the owners of the rune shops were also willing to make a fortune.

“Find a place to stay,” Joelson ordered Connie.

Connie nodded respectfully.

Tomorrow, he would sweep the remaining shops again. Joelson had to concentrate on devouring the power of law.

..

“What?! One wooden rune cost twenty stone coins?! Are you crazy?!”

A rune warrior stared at the rune shop owner with wide eyes, his face full of disbelief.

The owner of the rune shop waved his hand impatiently, “If you don’t want to buy it, then go out. If you don’t want to buy it, then go out.”

“Even if the price increases, it can’t be ten times higher than before, right? This is too much!”

“There aren’t many runestones in the entire Meteor City right now. It’s the same price everywhere. These few rune stones have just arrived. If you can’t afford them, then get lost!”

As he said this, the shopkeeper sneered, “Poor bastard!”

“You!”

The runic warrior was so angry that his face turned red. It was really too infuriating.

Originally, he had recently made a breakthrough in his strength and reached the boundary of advancement. He had happily come over to buy a few runestones to break through the runic warrior’s level. He did not expect to encounter such a thing.

The runic warrior ultimately swallowed his anger and helplessly turned around to leave.

He even said with dissatisfaction, “One wooden runestone costs twenty stone coins. Then I might as well become a runic hunter. That would be a lot of money.”

Similar scenes kept happening in front of all the runic shops in Meteor City.

All the runestones in Meteor city had been bought by Joelson. The price of runestones rose crazily. Moreover, even if one had money, one might not be able to buy them.

Many runestones would rather keep them in their hands than sell them.

If they sold them to ordinary people at the price of twenty stone coins, they might as well save up and sell them all to that rich customer. They could also exchange them for precious crystal runestone coins.

Crystal runestone coins.

Many people had never seen them in their lives.

This indirectly caused over 70% of the runestone warriors in Meteor City to rush out of the city and rush into the runestone wilderness.

The runestones in the wilderness were all money in their eyes.

Meteor City’s, City Lord’s mansion.

A tall man with a lightning-shaped golden tattoo on his forehead sat in the hall. His face was solemn and had an indescribable sense of dignity. However, his slightly narrow eyes made his temperament somewhat gloomy.

It was the city lord of Meteor City, Eugene.

At this moment, Eugene was focused on playing with a black crystal coin in his hand.

The edge of the coin was smooth, but there were no patterns on the two sides. It was just simply polished.

Someone respectfully stood beside Eugene and reported, “Recently, more than 90% of the runestones in Meteor City have been bought by the same person, and they were paid with this kind of crystal runestone.”

Eugene pinched the magic crystal coin with two fingers, narrowed her eyes, and carefully looked at it. She slowly said, “The quality is much better than ordinary crystal runic coins, but there isn’t any badge engraved on it.”

The person next to her had a surprised expression. “Could the Lord have come from the center of the runic land…”

“It doesn’t look like it.”

Eugene shook her head, and a sinister light flashed in her eyes, she said in a low voice, “I think it looks like it’s privately made. I’ve heard that some lucky people would occasionally find a crystal vein derived from high-level runes and secretly seal this information. They would mine it privately and produce runic coins. Then, they would send people to remote areas to exchange the runic coins for a large number of runic stones.”

The people next to her exclaimed, “Won’t we lose a lot of money like this?!”

Eugene narrowed his eyes and sneered, “Compared to our lives, losing a little is nothing. Besides…”

Eugene’s eyes shot out an intense greedy gaze.

“You can’t imagine how much a crystal rune ore vein is worth!”

Even the people next to him became excited.

“Sir, what do you mean?”

“It’s just a guess.”

Eugene’s expression completely disappeared, she casually ordered, “Get someone to keep an eye on the guy who bought the runestones. I’m guessing that he must have a lot of crystal rune coins on him. If it’s really as I’ve guessed, he’s a fat sheep that was sent to his mouth!”

“The point is, even if we eat this fat sheep, its owner won’t dare to make a sound! Hehe.”

In the best hotel in Meteor City, Connie walked out of her room. Other than a pair of eyes, the rest of her body was completely hidden.

She glanced at the room next to her.

Joelson was inside. It had been a week.

Before he went into seclusion, Joelson had given her a portion of magic crystal coins and asked her to buy a batch of runestones for him every three days.
