As the hours passed, whispers about Lord Arthur's unusually affordable meat trades began to spread like wildfire. Players flocked to the global channel, sharing their findings and speculating about the reasoning behind Arthur's pricing strategy.
"Has anyone else noticed that Lord Arthur is selling meat at prices that seem almost suspiciously low?"
"Yes, I checked, and it's true. He's selling meat at a rate that's hard to match," another player replied. The curiosity turned into a frenzy as players rushed to Arthur's trade channel, eager to capitalize on the affordable meat. Many were willing to part with valuable items, treasures, and loot in exchange for the essential resource.
"I don't have food, I don't care if it's a scam now, I'm going to trade some meat with him. I have some treasures that I got from the newbie gift pack."
"Yes, me too, I also have some treasures that I got from the newbie gift pack."
The messages continued to pour in, with multiple players expressing their interest in trading with Arthur.
Two hours later, Arthur's inbox was inundated with messages from players eager to trade. Offers poured in, ranging from tier-1 medicine and martial arts skill books to kitchen utensils and rare equipment.
"Hey big brother Arthur, I have a tier-1 medicine that can increase strength by 1. Can I trade this medicine for 5 units of meat from you?"
"Big brother Arthur, I have a tier-1 martial arts skill book - Qi Sword. I want 20 units of meat for this skill book,"
As Arthur sifted through the messages, one particular offer caught his attention. A player named Arora proposed trading a growable tier-1 skill book, Berserk, for 50 units of meat. The skill book's potential was immense, and Arthur's curiosity was piqued.
"brother Arthur, I have a growable tier-1 skill book - Berserk. I want to trade this skill book for 50 units of meat. No less, for you to know that this skill can grow with the person and can. It is a tier-1 skill for now, but as your own level grows, it will grow with you."
Arthur's eyes widened as he read the message, and he felt a surge of excitement. A growable skill book was a rare and valuable find, and he couldn't afford to let this opportunity slip away. He decided to trade everything except the growable skill book for now. Congratulations, Lord Arthur, you have traded 1 tier-1 martial arts skill book - Qi Sword, 2 tier-1 medicine, 3 kitchen utensils, and 4 tier-1 items. Then, a system prompt came again:
"Attention Lord, you have lost 45 units of meat from your inventory."
Arthur finally opened the direct message where Arora wanted to trade the growable skill book.
"Hello, I want more information about the growable skill book you're talking about and why you want to sell something valuable like this for meat." Arthur asked, his suspicion evident.
"Hello Arthur, my name is Arora. I want to trade this skill book because it doesn't suit my personality, and I want some food for me, my soldiers, and my subordinate." Arora replied.
In a seaside hut, Arora sat with her skin as white as snow, her hair as black as the night sky, and her eyes fixed with determination. She was the one named Arora who was talking with Arthur, the one trading the Berserk skill book which was growable. In front of her hut, many soldiers kneeled on one knee, their eyes filled with respect towards the person sitting in the hut. Arora thought to herself,
"This Arthur guy can trade so many units of meat in just 2-3 hours of transmigration. He must have gotten a high-rank talent just like me."
Arora didn't lack food at all; she just wanted to connect with strong people and build a strong relationship with them. She understood that in this world, only the strong could survive.
Arora had an epic-rank talent - God of War. This talent allowed her soldiers to gain experience five times more than usual, and they could become stronger in a shorter period through battles. After seeing Arthur's message, she replied.
"As I said, this skill can grow with the person. I got this skill in a treasure chest after killing a monster gathering point."
Arthur was shocked that there was someone who could kill a monster gathering point so soon. There must have been at least 50 tier-1 monsters there.
"I can trade, thanks for the skill book," Arthur replied.
"No worries, let's keep in touch. If you get anything good in the future, we can trade, and if I get anything good in the future that you need, then I can sell it to you in a good price." Arora said while smiling.
"Congratulations lord, you have obtained a growable tier-1 skill book- berserk"
"Attention lord 50 units of meat had been Traded"
Arthur was overjoyed when he saw the skill book in his hand, then he opened the skill book information and when he read the description of the skill book, he was soo shocked and happy that he started laughing loudly
"My first skill that can grow hahahahahah"
The description of the skill is ...
