《Pedlar of Another World》Pedlar of Another World - Chapter 33
Advertisement
With so many money in my pocket, how could I not enjoy my life a little? Since spending some of it on something useful are not a waste, I decided to went over to the town hall, and see what is available in the town hall. Immediately, when I actually reached the town hall, I heard a call for people who are interested to visit the Ling Cheng City. "Return trip to Ling Cheng City! Two more ticket is available. The trip will take three days to reach, and we will be staying in the city for one day before returning. Special price this time, only 50 Black Spirit Crystal is required!" a coachman shouted as he leads the people behind him to follow him to the Monster they are going to ride.
I immediately approached the coachman and paid him a total of 50 Black Spirit Crystals before long, and after waiting for another hour, the number of people finally reached 20, as we proceed along with the coachman to our ride. Unexpectedly, it is actually a flying Wyvern Monster. "Holy shit! Imagine if I could actually tame one of this beast that will take me travelling around this world." I whispered to myself, as I get up to the attachment chariot on the back of the monster.
"Alright, everyone, I know this might be not your first time within the Transportation Wyvern, but I hope you all could keep quiet and do not mess with the Air Guards if we do pass through any of them. Lately because of the increase of attacks from the Goblin Tribe, everyone is in a distress situation, I hope we won't be causing any trouble with them when we are on our journey." the coachman advises and inform everyone regarding what happened before we depart.
The moment the wyvern flaps its wing, the body begins to ascend to the air, as it started to fly up high to the skies. Almost about ten meters above the ground level, the wyvern travelled at a speed about 100 to 150 miles an hour, so our view is barely clear along our way. It actually felt like being in a high-speed train along the way, and sometimes we do pass through a few single flying wyverns and also Eagle Monster, but none of them actually gave us trouble along our way, so we get along in our journey unhindered. Three days later, we arrived at the outskirt of the Ling Cheng City.
The city is well spread along the sight, widely spanned from left to right, and not even the end could be seen when we are looking downwards from the air. The Transportation Wyvern take its turn to slowly descends to the ground, and after all of us registered ourselves with the guards, all of us are allowed to enter the city, but only for a single day. It still cost 10 Black Spirit Crystals to purchase a single entry ticket into the city.

Instead of scrolling around, I immediately went into the Auction Square, where some special items are always auctioned here to the highest bidder. I entered after I took an auction board, and after understanding all the rules, I begin to sit along with the others and prepare to see what Item is brought out to the stage. Since this is a normal small Auction Square, the item in the auction here does not reach any especially high-quality grade, but sometimes, some treasure could be found here if one is patient enough to wait.
"The next item to bring up to the stage is a very special item known as Crystal Copper Ore! This item is a rarity material that could only be obtained from the Ling Qi Town's Crystal Qi Cave. The price starts from One hundred Black Spirit Crystals for this 200gm amount, there is no set amount for each bid, you may start bidding now!" the auctioneer knock the hammer on the plate to indicates the starting, and immediately, the 200gm of Crystal Copper Ore managed to increased it price from the furious bidding, and finally ends at a price of two hundred and ninety Black Spirit Crystals.
The next item is another speciality of the Ling Qi Town's Crystal Qi Cave again, known as the Soul Copper Ore. This treasure is sold for a price of 210 Black Spirit Crystals before another treasure is brought up. A few items had passed through without any significant prices until a speciality of Ling Shou Town came up.
"This is a young cub of Serpent Tailed Leopard. Although the path to rear this pet into perfectly adult is not as simple as one would think, but if you managed to care it until it reaches adulthood, you will instantly obtain a strong protector and Travelling Beast at the same time. The Serpent Tailed Leopard is a grade 10 Upper-Grade Monster, and its price starts from 800 Black Spirit Crystals!"
The bidding for this young Serpent Tailed Leopard is so furious that it has gone up from 800 Black Spirit Crystals and reach 3000 in an instant. Without even a sign of stopping, the bidder continues as it finally reached 3700, and stopped after another man bid for 3800. the price finally ends at 3800 Black Spirit Crystals, as the Serpent Tailed Leopard Cub finally followed a man that seems like a strength-based adventurer, and left.
I remain seated at this place for another two more hours before I started to get slightly tired of the normal Lower and Medium Grade materials coming out. Some of them are not even my taste, especially on the armour and tool sold in this auction. I had a sudden itch as I spread my Scan Skill within the auction square, but weirdly, without any reason, It felt like my Scan Skill had been suppressed by some unknown force. "Damn! What could be around that making my Scan Skill actually failed to activates?" I actually looked around and sense nothing around me, so I hesitate for a moment before I activate my level 5 Scan Quirk.

This time, the Level 5 Quirk managed to get activated, as the vision behind the stage quickly appears before me. There, I couldn't see what is the treasure that will be going to bring out by the Auction Organizer, but I can sense that there is one extremely special item that has a very precious value within my Quirk's eyes. I kept looking at the location the treasure being pushed closer to the exits, as I started to get impatient.
"Alright, finally this item came up to the stage. Maybe most of you all are here for this particular treasure, but let me be very honest first. Although this material is rare, the people that are qualified to use it is rarer. This material has then the tendency to absorb their user's spirit until they collapse. But one thing for sure, this material is extremely special even for the Ling State resources because they are only obtainable from the body of Soul Hunter Golem!"
"Everybody, I present to you, the Rusted Soul Brass Metal!" the auctioneer unveil the piece of cloth covering the Metal, as the item on top of the little box appeared in front of everyone. Within the box, a piece of dark and light wooden coloured piece of metal Ingot could be seen, weight estimated about two hundred grams. It released a small amount of eerie feeling within, and as the wind blows, flakes could be seen flaking out from the metal Ingot as it got blown away.
"The initial price for this treasure starts from 1000 Black Spirit Crystals, each bid increases the price by 100 Black Spirit Crystals! You may start to bid now!" the auctioneer immediately announces the price of this treasure and allows the bidding to starts. Immediately, the price of the item rises to 2000 Black Spirit Crystals, and quickly increase to 6000. although it still going slow, it is still furiously bid by some high bidder as the price then reach 7500 Black Spirit Crystals.
"7900 Black Spirit Crystals!" one very feminine male gentle raise the auction board as he speaks the price. "Oh, Young Master Ling Tian Qi, good eyesight!" the auctioneer praise the young master for biding such a high price on this certain metal. Seeing this situation, I decided to participate in this auction as well, since my Level 5 Quirk says that this item worth the bidding.
"8000 Black Spirit Crystals." I raise the auction board and speaks. The moment Ling Tian Qi saw my bid, he immediately smiled for a moment, before he too, raise his board to outbid my price. We continued for a moment until he actually stopped as the price reach 9200 Black Spirit Crystals. Soon, the auctioneer finally decided to announce the piece of metal is won by me, and then, a staff came towards me to complete the transaction.
The moment the staff passed the piece of Rusted Soul Brass Ingot to me, I felt slightly weird as they actually use a clipper to hand that piece of the ingot to me. Without feeling anything out of ordinary, I actually use my bare hand to hold the piece of metal. The staff went away after the transaction is done, and as I slowly take a look at the piece of metal, the other bidders within the spot keep their attention on me.
Suddenly, a feeling of weakness starts to come over to my body, as I felt that my body is weakening. My hand starts to tremble like I have been starved for more than a week. My sight started to become blurry, and the blood from my heart begin to stop pumping more blood into my brain. I get nauseous and feeling like fainting on the spot until another hand actually knocked the piece of Rusted Soul Brass metal from my grip.
My blurry eye was looking at this person as he took the piece of ingot with a cloth and put it into his compartment before I fainted. "Damn. Is this how I am going to lost my piece of metal that was bid for a 9200 Black Spirit Crystals?"

Cosmic Bulldozing Team
"Welcome to the Cosmic Bulldozing Team! CBT for short... references to any other acronyms are purely coincidental." Breve has one exceptional gift: an inborn potential for Resurrection magic. The cost? Every other healing spell she casts is absolutely paltry in comparison to the rest of her race, making her family outcasts within her society. That potential alone, however, classes Breve as a Rank A Healer. By what metric? Well, by the crazy elf lady who’s about to destroy her planet. Wait, what? Here's the low-down: her planet has been targeted by the Cosmic Bulldozing Team, which, as their name suggests, operates in the apparently lucrative business of destroying planets. This comes with the unfortunate side-effect of also murdering everyone who lives there. And Breve would’ve been killed, too, if she hasn’t unintentionally passed their audition for a new healer. Unwillingly saved by the people who just annihilated everything Breve ever knew and loved, she’s dragged into a massive spaceship before, without a moment’s reprieve, being assigned missions to sally forth and commit the same atrocities on other planets. And with Breve's home lying in a pile of celestial bedrock, it seems that cooperating is the only option. And she will cooperate, or so help her, they'll send her back whence she came: into the void of space, where the smashed rubble of her planet now drifts along. "Buckle in, rookie: you've got some planetary destruction ahead of you." (Updates every 2 days.)
