Chapter 138 [(*^▽^*)]
Jiang Xiali exclaimed, "Of course it's rare! Although it only cost a little over 200 million points to buy this, let me tell you, if it weren't for the fact that when the seller was advertising it in the market, only Jiang Xiayue's father had the most points, it would have been impossible for it to be bought for just over 200 million."
"This makes me so angry! Why didn't the seller put it up for auction? Instead, they were just hawking it on the street. Honestly... If it were auctioned, it would have cost at least four or five hundred million points. Now look what they've done, they've cut it in half!"
Jiang Xiali was quite indignant about this, "Even though it was auctioned off, and I couldn't afford it, but..."
"Let me put it this way: if you encounter a crisis and need to defend yourself, no matter what type of attack it is or how powerful it is, you only need 10,000 points each time to block the attack and remain unharmed. What do you think?"
"This protective energy shield has no cooldown time. After being used once, it can be recharged immediately. The speed is very fast, it's a one-second recharge! And then it can withstand the next attack!"
"Think about it carefully. When you are fighting a big boss, its attacks can't hit you, but you can still kill it little by little."
Lin Leyou thought that charging once per hit would consume a lot of points, right? Ten thousand points per hit! But then he thought about how he had earned more than 200 million points in just one game, and he felt relieved about the ten thousand points.
Ten thousand points might not be much at all for people like Jiang Xiali and his ilk.
Jiang Xiali laughed again, "Oh my god, hahaha... I can't take it anymore, it's too funny. Next time we meet, I'm definitely going to make fun of her. It's so much fun. I didn't expect her to be so funny, giving you such an important prop."
“I also heard from her brother that he told Jiang Xiaoyue to give him this item after this Werewolf game, because he was going to a game field that was extremely dangerous but also very rewarding.”
"Now you're totally confused, hahaha..."
Lin Leyou: "So happy? Don't they have any defensive items left?"
There should be plenty of defensive items, right? That's all. Given Jiang Xiaoyue's arrogance, she can't possibly have no decent items at home, can she?
Jiang Xiali said, "Alright, alright, I won't laugh here anymore. I'll go back to my room and laugh by myself later."
"It's not that there aren't any left, but this is the most useful one. Many defensive items are one-time use, or have a limited number of uses, or their defensive range isn't as comprehensive, or they consume too many points. Don't you think they're furious?"
Lin Leyou stroked his chin, feeling that Jiang Xiali was gloating. He was so arrogant, wouldn't he provoke the other party too much and then get beaten up because he couldn't stand it anymore?
"Oh right, after Lin Wanyi told you, what should we do about this? This prop... it's not just disappearing for Jiang Xiaoyue and the others, they'll definitely come looking for you."
Lin Leyou sighed, "He told me to buy the house I'm living in now, and then he'll take me to the trading market so I can go there by myself from then on."
"He also introduced me to a martial arts instructor, and I'll be reporting for duty soon. Oh... I'm also learning to drive, that should be fine, right? I hope they won't infiltrate my driving school."
Jiang Xia thought for a moment, "The trading market is no problem, of course. As for the physical training instructor... Lin Wanyi may be a scoundrel, but the physical training instructor he introduces is definitely reliable. He's not someone Jiang Xiayue's family can mess with, so don't worry! As for learning to drive..."
“There aren’t so many rules for learning to drive. You can come to my house and I’ll teach you to drive. Once you’re skilled, you can go straight to the test without having to stay at the driving school.”
Lin Leyou was taken aback. Was there really such a good thing? He hadn't known about it before. "Okay, I'll come to your place to learn to drive when I have time."
Jiang Xiali said, "Ah, no problem, you definitely have to come. Let me tell my parents, they'll be very happy to have you as a guest. Stay a few more days!"
Lin Leyou: "No problem, I'll go home after I learn to drive."
Jiang Xiali said, "Okay! Then I'll prepare a room for you first, how about it is right next to mine?"
Lin Leyou naturally had no objection, "I'll listen to you!"
The two chatted for a while longer before hanging up.
Lin Leyou finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was still a little worried about Jiang Xiaoyue's family and feared that they would cause trouble for him, after communicating with Lin Wanyi and Jiang Xiali, he no longer felt that fear.
It took a whole day to drive there, but only half a day to drive back.
Is it because the car speeds are different?
Upon returning to her residential compound, Lin Leyou immediately went to the property management office of Xingfu Community to inquire about the price of the apartment she was currently living in.
"Is Mr. Lin going to buy this house?"
Lin Leyou nodded, "Yes, I really want to own my own house. I'd like to inquire about the price."
"This apartment is unit 501, building 5, with a total value of three million points. Considering your previous contributions to this community and the remaining ten-plus months of your rental period, we'll offer you a 5% discount. If you're interested, you can own this apartment now!"
Lin Leyou felt that the house in Building 5 was much more expensive than the house in Fan Qing's house when they completed the dungeon.
It's probably around a million points?
He messaged Lin Wanyi to ask, and Lin Wanyi was very surprised when she saw the message, "Three million? I thought it would cost four or five million, it's very cheap, you should be happy, buy it now!"
Lin Leyou asked in confusion, "Is there any particular reason for this?"
Lin Wanyi said, "There is a person living in a certain apartment in Building 5. He is my colleague. He is a warm person and often invites his friends to his home to rest."
"Building No. 5 offers the most beautiful view in the entire community."
Lin Leyou blinked. "I understand, thank you."
Whether the scenery is beautiful or not is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that an enforcer of the Bureau of Order Management lives in the building where I live!
Moreover, he was a hospitable person, always inviting colleagues to his home. Of course, this might have originally been one of his residences, but after the incident in this neighborhood...
Lin Wanyi had previously mentioned that enforcers of order would frequently appear in the vicinity. So, what kind of people could appear so often?
It goes without saying that they must be someone living in the community!
This big shot isn't just staying here temporarily; he'll be living here for the next few years, and also keeping an eye on the situation in this neighborhood.
With a powerful figure living nearby, wouldn't my safety level increase dramatically? In that case, I'd buy it even if it were four or five million points, let alone three million!
Buying a house in Infinite City is really simple; you don't need to go to any complicated places to get all sorts of documents.
Everything can be handled by the property management company.
He only needs to pay the points, and then the house he's currently living in will instantly belong to him. He can pick up the property certificate at the property management office on the spot; he doesn't need to go anywhere else or wait.
So convenient, no wonder it's an infinite world!
"Notification: Congratulations to resident Lin Leyou for owning a regular property and a permanent home, becoming a mid-level resident of the Infinite World!"
Lin Leyou opened his own panel to check.
Name: Lin Leyou
Identity: Mid-level resident of the Endless World
Physical fitness: 80
Physical condition: 85
Spirit: 78
Money: 111.0W
Points: 236300660
Talent: Ghostly Wall
His status as a resident has progressed from the bottom to the ordinary and now to the middle class. There must be higher levels above him, and even higher levels beyond that.
I don't know if this is common knowledge in the Endless World. If I ask such a common-sense question, the other party might immediately suspect me.
Lin Leyou suppressed her doubts, thinking that she would eventually find out eventually, so there was no need to rush.
Wait, he can ask the system.
"System, what conditions need to be met to become a resident of a high-rise building?"
The system certainly didn't disappoint him!
"Note: To become a high-level resident, your total personal assets need to exceed 10 billion points."
Lin Leyou's lips twitched. 10 billion? He only had a little over 200 million, which was far from enough, not to mention there were definitely other levels above him.
He let out a sigh of relief. Forget about it now; it's too far away from me. I should go home and visit first.
When he got home, he first checked the screen next to the front door, which was used to pay bills, but now the homeowner's name on it had changed to his own.
Moreover, the rent item has disappeared, leaving only miscellaneous expenses such as water, electricity, gas, and property management fees.
Lin Leyou sat comfortably on the sofa and then lay down, casually filling the energy shield in his backpack with 2000 points.
He hadn't really grasped how good this thing was when Lin Wanyi told Jiang Xiali about it, but now that he'd calmed down and thought about it again, he could feel how good it was.
After each attack is blocked, you can instantly recharge your energy, regardless of how much energy you consume, and put yourself back in a safe state before the next attack arrives.
Moreover, each recharge cannot exceed 10,000 points, and 10,000 points can block any type of attack, such as mental attacks, poison, and firearms attacks, with no upper limit on power.
Think about it, this effect is absolutely amazing, isn't it?
This gold-plated defensive item is indeed powerful; no wonder Lin Wanyi and Jiang Xiali both highly recommend it, while Jiang Xiayue changed her mind after the game ended.
Two hundred million points may not seem like much, but Jiang Xiayue's family got a great deal.
It's just a pity that this great deal is now mine!
He took the energy shield out and examined it carefully. It was a bowl-shaped shield, about the size of a palm, not too big.
