Chapter 9: Magic Crystals!

Joey looked at the market situation.

Among them, Annie had already sold close to 300 units of food in the market!

Many lords started to follow suit, placing some food on the shelves one after another.

They wanted to use this method to quickly increase their resources.

The moment the food was placed on the shelves, it was instantly emptied!

As for the Lords who were still hungry, firstly, their army was too weak. Secondly, their competitiveness was too low.

Without food, not only would the lords go hungry, but their armies would also go hungry!

They would go hungry from time to time and would even have to go out to kill monsters just stave off starving, their loyalty would quickly drop!

Once it dropped below 60, the army would betray them and even kill the Lords!

Hence, under the influence of the food and the market, the weaker the lord, the less likely it was to grow quickly!

From the second day onwards, the situation would worsen, as the number of Lords increased, it would be easier to kill monsters and obtain resources..

Hence, there would be more food on the market.

However, Joey did not believe what he was seeing.

With billions of Lords, not everyone could eat!

He immediately put 300 units of food in the warehouse on the market!

[ I have 300 units of food! ]

[ Click if you need it! ]

[ You can exchange 1 energy stone for 1 unit of food! ]

[ You can exchange 1 magic crystal for 10 units of food! ]

[ You can use 50 wood and 20 stones to exchange for 1 unit of food! ]

[ First come, first served! ]

It was still the same recipe, and it was still the same familiar taste!

Due to Joey’s food quantity on offer being too large, he quickly sold as much as Annie, and thus, Joey’s position in the trading market was instantly placed at the top by the system!

As a result, many lords who were still searching for food in the exchange market immediately discovered the traces of the great profiteer Joey!

In the world chat channel, the battle instantly began!

“What the f*ck! The great profiteer is here again!”

“300 units in one go? How can this person do this?”

“Ah ah! It’s too expensive!”

“He didn’t even lower the price? Be careful not to be suppressed by goddess Annie!”

“He really doesn’t know what’s good for him! He’s still so deceitful!”

“I submitted my friend request yesterday, but that coward Joey refused to agree. He’s probably scared. I originally wanted to go out with him and have a spar with him!”

“Joey! Tell me where you are! I’m going to make you lose an arm and a leg!”

“Hehe, I Won’t buy it! Sigh, I just want to wait for Annie, I just want to play!”

…

Beep!

Just as Joey had expected, even though he was cursing in the chat channel, the 300 units of food that he had just placed on the shelves were still reduced instantly by 200 units!

As for why it wasn’t emptied out…

It was because Annie’s arrival had made some lords patient and willing to wait for her to put food on the shelves before buying it.

They did not want to buy Joey’s profiteering goods.

But this time, some of the lords were willing to use energy stones to exchange!

This surprised him!

To Joey, he could not finish the food alone.

The only soldier type under him, the demons, did not need to eat, so even if he had two more battle companions today, they did not need to worry about food!

On the other hand, an ordinary lord was completely different!

If it was just an ordinary army type, with two more on the next day,

It would mean that they would need to feed two more soldiers!

The demand for food would be even greater!

To them, energy stones could be obtained by slowly killing monsters, but they definitely could not let the army go hungry!

This transaction allowed Joey to obtain 100 energy stones, 5,000 wood, and 2,000 stones!

Now, Joey’s total resources:

[ Stones: 5,000]

[ Wood: 10,000]

[ Energy stones: 140]

The requirements for upgrading the castle were:

[ Stones: 10,000]

[ Wood: 5,000]

The requirements for upgrading the demon blood pool were:

[ Energy stone: 200]

[ Magic crystal: 1]

After observing the information, Joey nodded his head in satisfaction.

At this rate, he would probably be able to upgrade the castle or the demon blood pool today!

In that case, his strength would once again reach a new level!

“Are you guys stupid? Don’t buy food from Big Dumb Pig Joey! It’s better to wait for big boss Annie’s food!”

“I just won’t buy it. Although I’m very hungry now, I’ll never buy from a profiteer like Joey!”

“Goddess Annie! Hurry up and get it on the shelves! Otherwise, I’ll be killed by my own army!”

“Don’t buy Joey’s food, let him cry!”

“It’s none of your business whether I buy it or not. My army is made up of silver miners. I don’t lack resources, I lack food!”

“Like-minded! My army is also focused on gathering resources, but food is a big problem!”

“It seems like there are still a lot of holy mothers in the chat channel… Shut up!”

…

The channel that was noisy almost every moment made Joey smile awkwardly and temporarily shut it down.

He opened the friend request list and planned to empty it again, but he found something even more interesting!

Annie, who was praised as a goddess by countless lords, had actually submitted a friend request to him for two days in a row!

Joey knew that Annie’s army was definitely not ordinary!

A lord that could take out 300 units of food one after another was definitely someone not to be trifled with!

Perhaps befriending her was also a good choice!

However, Joey did not do so.

Right now, he was living a comfortable life. The pace of leveling up and becoming stronger was very regular. He did not need any help for the time being.

Moreover, he did not want anyone to know that he had the only branch of the army,

This was the reason why people were famous!

Therefore, he did not hesitate at all. He rejected all the friend list applications with one click!

All of a sudden, Joey felt something strange on the side of the four devils!

There would be a subtle connection between a Lord and a soldier.

Once his soldiers encountered any major events, their emotions, and mental fluctuations within the territory’s sphere of influence, the Lord would be the first to notice!

Joey immediately entered the battle environment of the Four Devils and watched to see what was going on!

As a white light flashed before his eyes, he entered the scene where the four demons were fighting!

He discovered that at this moment, Little Fatty, Little Skinny, Little Strong, three battle-type red-eyed demons, were surrounding a bull that was completely golden in color and the size of a small truck.

Little Smart was hovering at a high point, conducting tactical commands.

“Wild Wild Bull! This is a level-5 monster!”

Defeating a level-5 monster had a very small chance of dropping magic crystals.

He did not know if he would succeed this time!

Then, at Little Smart’s order, Little Fatty and Little Strong each held fire sabers in their hands and charged forward from the front and the side!

The Savage Bull was very angry. He huffed and puffed white smoke out of the bull’s nose, spread out his thick limbs, and began to fight the demon!

And at the moment when the fire knife and the bull’s horns intersected…

“I’ve found a weakness! The abdomen is the weakest!”

“We can kill it!”

“Agility power! Critical hit power! Demonization!”

Under Little Smart’s incantation, the aura of Little Skinny that had not yet attacked suddenly soared!

Covered in black gas, it quickly slid its knife into the wild bull’s abdomen, and the fire knife suddenly became three times bigger!

It immediately cut the level 5 monster, Savage Bull, in half from its abdomen!

Then, a five-colored prism-shaped crystal appeared emitting a dazzling light!

“A Magic Crystal!”
