Chapter 101: Chapter 85: Orange Quality Fire Seed Marvel (Please Subscribe)
This creature was very similar to the centaurs from his memory, but he couldn't be sure if they were indeed the same.
As for centaurs, being a kind of demi-human, they possess exceptional stamina and speed and are also skilled in archery, making them one of the most common races within the Starry Sea.
Upon entering the Ruins Market and seeing the rule light screen at the entrance, the centaur wielding an iron spear finally relaxed.
The rule light screen was a manifestation of the Ruins Market Law; a mere glance was enough to make any alien creature looking at it fully believe in the list of rules displayed on it.
When he saw Song Chi drifting from one shop to another, the First Rank centaur seemed to think of something. It began to stride quickly towards the various shops on its four hooves.
The centaur had no interest in military or civilian exoskeleton armor.
To be more precise, it was incapable of having any interest; as the Torch Civilization, a Starry Sea human civilization, produced exoskeleton armor tailored for humans or humanoid species of similar size, which centaurs like these were unable to wear.
As for the specialized exoskeleton armor tailored by certain powers, families, or conglomerates for their own enslaved creatures, these were not available on the market.
Originally, Song Chi thought it would end up like other alien races, ultimately stopping at the genetic potion shop, but the outcome was somewhat unexpected.
"Tungsten Gold War Shield, Tungsten Gold Lance?"
After a moment of confusion, Song Chi quickly realized that although these centaurs were also skilled with the bow and arrow, their robust bodies provided them with even greater close-combat fighting capabilities.
This could be inferred from the blood-stained iron spear in the centaur's hand.
When it came to deciding the outcome of close combat, besides physique and strength, sharp weapons and solid defense were also key factors.
Compared to the iron spear in the hands of this First Rank centaur, a Tungsten Gold Lance naturally fell short; the spear seemed to be made of fine iron, and although the craftsmanship was lackluster, the material itself made the spear sharp and durable, better than a Tungsten Gold Lance.
However, Song Chi speculated that there might be a tribe behind this First Rank centaur. There should be many Zero Rank centaurs in its tribe, otherwise, it would not be interested in these Zero Rank shields and weapons.
Of course, this was before it reached the shops selling high-quality Titanium Alloy Battle Shields and Longswords, otherwise these First Rank armaments would likely make this centaur even more covetous.
As he expected, not long after leaving the Tungsten Gold Armor shop, the First Rank centaur arrived at the high-quality Titanium Alloy Armament shop. Then, excitement completely replaced the expression on its face.
Its tribe was only a medium-small tribe with less than ten thousand centaurs. There were no centaur blacksmiths capable of forging fine weapons, which was why the casualties in its tribe were consistently higher than other tribes in conflicts, also the fundamental reason why the centaur numbers in the tribe did not increase.
After paying 50 strands of First Rank Floating Land Origin, it obtained a silver-white high-quality Titanium Alloy Longsword.
Swinging it back and forth for several seconds, the centaur felt increasingly satisfied; the high-quality Titanium Alloy Longsword was better than it had imagined, several levels above those weapons crafted by so-called elite blacksmiths from other tribes.
Compared to the price, 50 strands of First Rank Floating Land Origin was not very expensive.
In the past, the surrounding tribes took advantage of the fact that this tribe was unable to forge fine weapons, selling their weapons at high prices and of mediocre quality that needed replacing often. The tribe's finances were largely spent on purchasing weapons every year.
Looking at the hundred Titanium Alloy Battle Shields and Longswords laid out in the shop, the centaur suppressed the excitement in its heart, quickly left the shop, and headed towards the entrance of the Ruins Market; it did not have enough Floating Land Origin on it and had to return to its tribe as soon as possible.
Seeing the centaur's urgency, Song Chi was in an excellent mood. As long as the force behind it had sufficient financial power, with just these two hundred pieces of high-quality Titanium Alloy Armaments, he could earn nearly ten thousand strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin or, conversely, almost a thousand strands of First Rank Floating Land Origin.
Suddenly, the weight that had been previously on his heart due to the huge financial gap warmed up considerably.
It wasn't long before the First Rank centaur returned to the Ruins Market, and this time, it was followed by hundreds of other centaurs.
The majority of them were Zero Rank, and there were also more than ten First Rank centaurs.
Unsurprisingly, upon returning to the Ruins Market, the group of centaurs all followed closely behind the first First Rank centaur that had entered the market, heading straight for the armament shops.
Making their way through the central street of the Ruins Market, some of the younger centaurs who appeared to be underage kept looking around, their eyes filled with curiosity about the unknown.
Seeing this, Song Chi became even more pleased.
From this momentum, it seemed that the group of centaurs was planning to take all the items from both armament shops.
Ten minutes later, as the group of centaurs emerged from the two shops, each of them carried at least ten sets of armaments.
Yet even so, this round had taken only over a thousand items; nearly twenty thousand Tungsten Gold Combat Shields and Lances awaited them to fetch from the Tungsten Gold Armor shop.
Indeed, the group of centaurs was quite generous, and they really took everything from the two armament shops in one go. Currently, Song Chi's hands had already gained an additional 2000 strands of First Rank Floating Land Origin + 10000 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin. The speed of making money was astonishing.
