Chapter 28 The Gem Pirates

Upon hearing this, all eyes that had been focused on Chen Qing and the others turned to what was behind them.

Chen Qing and the others couldn't help but turn around, and what they saw almost blinded them!

"Wow, so flashy..."

They all couldn't help but squint and turn their heads away.

What a dazzling group of people, oh my god.

Did they wear all the most dazzling gems in the entire Gem Sea on their bodies?!

The group of people behind Chen Qing were all draped in magnificent golden light, like a walking treasure trove of gold.

The clothes, made of gold and adorned with gemstones, shone with a dazzling light, like the sun.

She wore a large amount of luxurious gemstone jewelry, covering all ten fingers.

It's exaggerated, like a nouveau riche, yet it has a strangely unrestrained splendor that doesn't seem frivolous; it exudes confidence and ostentation.

They had a strong presence, just like the pirates on the black-purple pirate ship that Chen Qing had encountered at the port before; they were definitely not ordinary people.

The group stood tall and looked down on everyone, regarding everyone except themselves and their companions with disdain, as if they were the masters of the world.

However, others in the black market also looked down on them equally, scoffing at them and despising them greatly.

Those arrogant bastards in the Jewel Pirates are still as deserving of a beating as ever!

Gao Yue turned her head several times to look at Chen Qing, blinked, and asked silently.

The clothes and jewelry these people are wearing must be very valuable, right?

Chen Qing silently held up two fingers, indicating that the goldfish was worth at least 200,000 yuan.

Her perspective is limited, and she can't see much more value for the time being.

hiss……

Gao Yue and the others gasped in shock. Wouldn't that mean they could just grab one and never have to worry about food or drink again?

"Aurelia, don't be so harsh, after all..."

The woman next to the man called Aurelia suddenly opened her gleaming silver folding fan, covering half her face, and said in a sharp, sarcastic voice.

"Oh ho ho ho—they're all a bunch of poor bastards!"

She told others not to be mean, but the words that came out of her mouth were even harsher than those of Aurelia.

Chen Qing's eyes lit up when he saw the fan in the woman's hand.

Her metal affinity has been activated!

That fan was made from a very rare deep-sea mineral—Rainbow Silver Ore!

It's very expensive.

"That damn bitch Zimura is still so annoying! Didn't they get beaten up by Ghost Bone in the Treasure Sea? How come she's still so arrogant!"

A pirate behind Chen Qing muttered a curse, clearly showing how much she hated the Gem Pirates.

"Where's Scarlet Flame? Wasn't she supposed to be on Sapphire Island?"

"We came all the way to this godforsaken place because we heard she got her hands on a special skill book."

Zimra looked at the dilapidated, muddy black market with disdain. This godforsaken place! If the captain hadn't forbade it, she would have rebuilt it into something even more luxurious than the royal palace of the Kingdom of Astareia!

It's the place where they were born and raised, after all, tsk tsk tsk...

Special skills...

Chen Qing and the others exchanged glances. Forget about the special skill book; it wasn't something they could get their hands on.

However, judging from Zimra's words, it can be concluded that both survivors and natives are actually the same.

Job change scrolls, skill books, items, ...

What the younger sisters have, the older sisters also have.

Perhaps the system that pulled them into this so-called game is one of the mysteries of this world.

Let's go.

Qiao Zhiyu winked at Chen Qing and the others, knowing that the black market was not a safe place.

These pirates might clash at any time, and they don't need to get involved, lest they become collateral damage.

Chen Qing agreed with Qiao Zhiyu's suggestion. News of what happened on the black market would spread throughout the streets and harbors of Sapphire Island in less than an hour.

Within three days, the entire deep blue sea will know.

There are quite a few people who share the same thoughts as Chen Qing and the others; of course, their own affairs are more important.

The group quickly left and began searching for the various items they wanted.

Chen Qing's goal was clear: to build a mechanical assembly line factory.

There are very few mechanical items on the black market. Even if there are, most of them are mechanical creations, blueprints, ores, or tips.

Although Chen Qing also wanted them, these were not her goals this time.

"Hey kids, need a guide?"

A rough, hoarse male voice suddenly came from above Chen Qing and the others, and everyone looked up.

He is a man with a mechanical prosthetic eye, an ordinary person with very little strength and no threat.

"want."

Chen Qing looked at the man's prosthetic eye and said decisively.

The man grinned and chuckled; he knew it.

This kid has been paying attention to things related to mechanics ever since he entered the black market.

The robotic arm she was holding was definitely modified.

How much compensation do you want?

Qiao Zhiyu rolled up her sleeves and got to work; she's a pro at bargaining!

"It's free."

The man waved his hand, refusing Qiao Zhiyu, and his gaze fell on Chen Qing, pointing at Chen Qing with his missing finger.

"Can you fix some things for me? I'll provide the materials. Don't worry, they're just ordinary machines, and there aren't many of them."

"Just like my eye."

The man pointed to his eyes again, then nonchalantly gouged them out and threw them to Chen Qing.

"!!"

He Congrong was greatly shocked. Was it really that casual?

Chen Qing reached out and caught it, then took out a small tool he carried with him from his pocket and examined it briefly.

"Can."

She nodded and tossed the mechanical eye back to the man.

It's not that difficult.

It's much simpler than the Super Vine.

"You'll come with me after we leave the black market?"

"Um."

"Okay, what do you want to buy?"

The man nodded in satisfaction. He was a former pirate with a physical disability, little ability, and little money, who spent his days frequenting the island's ordinary markets and black markets.

He hadn't saved much money; the mechanics on the island charged exorbitant fees, which he couldn't afford.

Qiao Zhiyu and the others tacitly let Chen Qing speak first, after all, they owed it to Chen Qing.

"I want to buy assembly line equipment for a machine factory, preferably parts that can be reassembled."

"The budget is limited."

Chen Qing added.

"A machine factory assembly line..."

The man stroked his chin, thinking, "The budget is still limited; this isn't going to be easy."

However, this woman is a mechanic, so there shouldn't be any major problems.

“I’ll take her to find someone; she just took down a mechanic’s pirate crew last week.”

"You buy the core equipment from her, and I'll take you to the junkyard and other places to scavenge for the rest?"

"Can."

Chen Qing readily agreed. Her budget was limited; she couldn't expect someone to conjure up a top-of-the-line model out of thin air.

"Okay, let's go. You guys can take a look too. She has a lot of things in her hands, and they're quite varied."

The man quickly led the group in a certain direction.

After they left, several figures quietly followed in their footsteps, close behind.
