Astral Pet Store – Chapter 726
“Do not try to fool me with something fake if you are a smart person,” Layne said indifferently. Only a few minutes had passed since Su Ping left; he did not have enough time to buy items at another store.
The fruit couldn't possibly be of high quality since he said it wasn't available a moment before, while he suddenly offered it back then. That is, if it is really real.
Su Ping took a quick glance at Layne but did not bother to answer her; he would chase away the person if the latter rambled again. Every customer should be respected, but it is clear that the man has no intention of buying anything. He asked to be beaten with all his criticism!
“This is you.”
Su Ping took out two Heaven Frost Crystal Fruits from his storage room.
They are a pair of white round fruits about the size of a melon. There was a thin layer of ice on its surface, with seven faint circles of mist surrounding them.
That means both fruits are seven thousand years old!
“Health..”
Mia noticed the falling temperature, then lost her composure and widened her eyes in disbelief as soon as she saw the Heaven Frost Crystal Fruit that Su Ping was holding with her astral power.
A seven thousand year old Heaven Frost Crystal Fruit?
He had never seen such a big fruit in the real world!
His status allowed him to see many of the top pet ingredients, but mostly at top auctions or in magazines. They are almost priceless!
Two Heaven Frost Crystal Fruits that were worthy of an auction or a magazine right before his eyes!
“They are both about seven thousand years old. Each is worth six million astral coins, “said Su Ping, “You can ask your pet to try it first if you are not sure of its quality.”
Mia had recovered only to be shocked again. With wide-eyed and surprised, he asked, “S-Six million?”
He felt Su Ping was speaking wrongly. Six million? How come? Each one was worth over ten million, and perhaps seventy to seventy million at auction!
Su Ping offer is only one tenth of the market price!
“Do you think it's expensive?” Su Ping frowned. He knew that the Heaven Frost Crystal Fruit was effective and quite fresh. He would mark them at a much higher price if the system did not think too much about it.
Miya: “...”
He looked at Su Ping strangely, wondering if the man was really stupid, or was there something wrong with the items.
Cheap goods are never of high quality; it is something that everyone learns from capitalist exploitation; after all, no one wants to sell goods at a loss; those who claim that they actually make a lot of money because of some strategies.
The buyer may be wrong, but the seller is never wrong!
“Is there something wrong with your item?” Layne nearby was also astonished by Su Ping's offer. He sneered and said, “Do you know what a seven thousand year old Heaven Frost Crystal Fruit means? This is the most valuable pet food in any store. How can it be sold so easily?
“In addition, even if it was indeed sold, it would not be this cheap.
“Don't you say it's not available? And you found two of them, where did you get them? Did you synthesize it with something else? ”
Mia also turned her head to look at Su Ping. She didn't like Layne very much, but she did ask the same question she wanted to ask.
Su Ping grew cold after seeing their reaction. Apart from being a businessman, he did not have to beg others to buy his things.
His items were genuine and sold at a cheap price; he had plenty of reasons to be angry because he was suspected.
“Show what the problem is if you are knowledgeable!
“If you don't know about it, just shut up!”
Su Ping looked at Layne coldly and added, “Don't pretend that you are a specialist asking everything you see. Everything I sell is genuine. As I said before, you can ask your pet to try it first if you doubt its quality. Show evidence to back up your claim if you see anything wrong. Stop yelling and making random accusations!”
Layne was surprised.
He had not expected that such a small shopkeeper would dare to speak to him in such a harsh tone.
He has announced his family name.
Who on the planet can avoid admiration after hearing the surname “Ryan”?
Mia was also somewhat astonished, clearly not expecting Su Ping to challenge Layne like that. Su Ping spoke harshly as if he did not regard Layne as a big deal at all.
What is the background of the owner of this shop?
Layne was boiling since his initial shock. He said coldly beaming from his eyes, “Excuse me? Say that again, I challenge you!”
“I never repeat myself. Are you trying to cause trouble? ” Su Ping looked at him coldly.
Layne was about to throw a tantrum, but then his expression slightly changed as he stared at Su Ping. He saw death and boundless cold in Su Ping eyes, just like the eyes of veterans who had fought on a desolate planet for so many years. No, not even the veterans of his family he met did not have such terrifying eyes as Su Ping's eyes!
This fellow…
While Layne was still in a daze, Mia immediately interrupted, “Have stopped fighting. I'll just check the fruit myself. ”
He was afraid Layne would get into a fight because of him. He was then shocked when he saw Su Ping; the ordinary-looking shopkeeper suddenly released an intimidating vibe.
He also detected waves of energy in Su Ping's current body, which indicated that he was on the same level as her.
Su Ping also looked as young as him.
Considering his manners, was he a junior from a large family who gained social experience here?
He thought for a moment and then said to Su Ping, “My pet is a Frozen Blood Star Dragon. It's kinda. Do you have an open space where I can call him? ”
“You can call him here. There is a resizing mechanism in this store,” Su Ping said.
This system can help reduce the size of pets; even the Star State giant will shrink and become a small cute while in the store.
“Mechanism resizing?” Mia was even more astonished. The mechanism can only be applied by those in the Star Country. It wasn't difficult, but only the big stores were able to afford to hire Star State experts to do that.
“Yes. You can call him here, ” said Su Ping.
Mia stopped thinking when she received her permission and called her battle pet.
A spatial vortex appeared; a terrifying ice-covered dragon head protruded out. The dragon's head was compressed, and its pointed horn was also shortened, making it look very cute in the end.
Frost Blood Star Dragon — which was a hundred meters long — appeared in the store with a length of only five meters, but its aura was as cold and brutal as the original. However, the brutality in his eyes was replaced by desire upon seeing the fruit held by Su Ping.
Hungry up! Hungry up!
I want to eat it! I want to eat it!
Saliva overflows in the dragon's mouth. It would pounce to get its fruit if Mia allowed it.
Mia was also a little surprised by her pet's reaction; it had never been this pleasant when she gave him fruits of the same variety before.
Is that the difference between a hundred year old and a seven thousand year old?
Mia instantly sent a message to her pet, asking him to taste and enjoy the fruit, not just devour it!
To be honest, he was not so sure that Su Ping could offer two aged fruits so easily.
The Frost Blood Star Dragon was quite confused by his instructions, but he realized that he had permission to eat it!
It quickly nodded in response. Any edible food is acceptable for pets. Why bother with taste? Humans are really troublesome, especially the women…
Whooshing sound!
Just like a starving cat, the Frost Blood Star Dragon pounced on the Frost Heaven Crystal Fruit in Su Ping's hand.
Su Ping hid the second fruit when the pet was about to bite one of them.
He offers one of them for pets to check its quality. The master has to pay the bill first if he wants a second fruit.
The dragon was exasperated the moment it saw one of its fruits disappear, but its anger was immediately thawed by the fruit in its mouth.
Delicious! So delicious!
The Frost Star Blood Dragon was very pleased. It narrowed its eyes and enjoyed the moment as if it was relaxing in a hot spring.
The Heaven Frost Crystal Fruit immediately entered his stomach after chewing on it quickly.
The dense ice anima flowed out from the fruit flesh; the scorching energy in the core neutralized the extreme cold. A strange and balanced energy quickly circulated throughout his body.
The Frost Blood Star Dragon groaned comfortably, as if it was being massaged by countless small hands.
The energy emitted by his body became increasingly stronger each time he groaned; the scales on its surface seemed to be covered in ice.
The frost is immediately thawed by the force of heat which immediately turns into steam. The Frost Blood Star Dragon looked different from before after its steam dissipated.
His silver scales were smoother and brighter; the dark red thread at the tip of his white and pointed horn was thicker than before.
It was not a pure ice-class dragon; it had some beast blood boiling within its body. It is for this reason that the owner must adhere to harsh eating requirements. Still, his combat ability deserved his meticulousness: it was one of the best dragons in Silvy.
Mia was quite astonished by the changes of the Frost Blood Star Dragon.
A crystal bead on his watch suddenly started to glitter, turning into a small device in his hand that looked like a square phone.
He then opened the device and pressed the deep red button. Immediately after, the Frost Blood Star Dragon appeared on his device.
His eyes widened in disbelief after he saw the new data registered by the device!
Only a few moments had passed, and the value of his dragon— P which represented the amount of energy in the Frost Blood Star Dragon—'s body had soared by 1.8! That meant that the energy density of his pet was a third higher than before!
What does the third increase in energy density mean?
That meant that the speed and strength of his skill, as well as his senses and reaction speed, had increased significantly!
The food she normally gave her dragon could barely keep her energy balance. Some of the expensive foods he sometimes bought could only increase the P value by at most between 0.1 and 0.3. However, the fruit had almost resulted in a two-point increase!
In addition to the P value, other indicators also increased slightly.
Most importantly, the pet's body status has qualified as “Hebat”!
It is the highest rating for pet body status, followed by “Spirited”, “Excellent”, “Fine”, “Sick”, “Wounded” and “Hopeless.”
Mia always takes good care of her battle pets and keeps them in Excellent status all the time. They are sometimes spirited right after a meal, or when they anticipate it.
Status of most pets—because the owner did not take good care of him—stay in status “Baik”.
Layne finally recovered from his stunned status. He was a bit moody after being too afraid to speak because of Su Ping's sharp eyes earlier. What makes her feel better is that Mia is completely distracted by her pet and seems oblivious to her embarrassment.
Seeing the shock on Mia's face, she quickly asked him, then looked at Su Ping coldly, “How is it?”
“I-It's real..”.
Mia is awakened by Layne but is still shocked. The examination report couldn't possibly be wrong, meaning that the Heaven Frost Crystal Fruit Su Ping had just given to his dragon was not a fake one. That's a real thing!
He had heard that a thousand-year-old fruit was already capable of producing an astonishing increase!
Ten thousand year old types are much more effective; they might even help one's pet understand a new skill or evolve!
“I told you... What?” Almost no Layne opened her mouth when she realized what Mia had told her. “It's real?”
How come?
The fruit that the store owner found in a matter of minutes was actually a seven thousand year old Frozen Heaven Crystal Fruit?
Mia was calm. He then recalled the second fruit that Su Ping had put away. He quickly asked, “Bos, can you sell me other fruits?”
Su Ping relaxed after seeing that he had ascertained the quality of the fruit; he no longer had to persuade her to buy. He said, “Oke.”
“About price..”.
“As I've said before, six million each,” said Su Ping casually.
Mia doesn't know what to say. He thought that he had previously offered a lower price so that they would not leave; it was rather unbelievable that he had not raised the current price.
After hesitating for a moment, Mia reminded him, “Heaven Frost Crystal Fruits .. worth tens of millions ..”
His identity and self-worth make him reluctant to take advantage of others.
He was almost amused himself when he said that.
He would never have imagined that he would bargain with a merchant someday, and not ask him to lower the price but to ask for more!
“Tens million..”.
Su Ping lips twitched upon hearing that. He knew that it would be a loss if he sold fruits for six million per fruit, but the loss turned out to be greater than he thought.
The other shopkeeper made money happily every day, but there he was, suffering consecutive losses.
System, can you stop being unreasonable? These fruits are precious!
“When I say it's six million, it's six million. This store will never adjust its price, ” Su Ping said to Mia after complaining silently.
Mia was made speechless by Su Ping's determination. Those who do not know might even think that he has made a crazy bargain!
Come on, I'm asking you to raise the price!
I would feel uncomfortable if I bought it at such a cheap price!
“Why didn't I pay ten million for each?” I dare Mia.
“I said the price is for sure!” Su Ping did not look pleased; not because he offered more money, but because he was reminded of the pain in his heart due to his persistence.
He is not interested in ordinary money. He wanted a transaction that could be converted into energy points!
Mia was at a loss for words, seeing how Su Ping seemed to be about to blow her clothes off; she had never seen a freak like him before. Having no other choice, he could only transfer twelve million into Su Ping's account.
Layne knew that there was nothing he could do even though he was angry from anger. There was nothing he could criticize about Su Ping's items.
He's not a coach, so he doesn't have the necessary knowledge to dig deep.
The offer to pay the bill back was rejected by Mia; her mood took another dive.
Su Ping took out a second Frost Sky Crystal Fruit and gave it to Mia after the money was transferred.
Su Ping made a quick calculation related to the search. Twelve million coins means 120,000 energy points after conversion. I had to make it spend 9,880,000 more energy points …
