The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? Chapter 701 - 496: It’s Buying a Dragon, Not Buying Dragon S

Liu Zheng quickly realized he had said sothing foolish.

To implent this feature, we’d definitely have to input the personnel information of all five families.

If outsourced, wouldn’t that an handing over such confidential information on a silver platter?

"It’s fine, no bla on those who didn’t know. Why don’t we go inside and chat?"

Manager Hui suggested.

"Then I shall intrude."

Liu Zheng nodded.

Upon arriving at the eting room, Manager Hui ordered tea to be served, and they sat across from each other.

"I’m pressed for ti, so I’ll be direct. If my words seem impolite, I’ll definitely apologize when I have the chance."

Liu Zheng said straightforwardly.

"The five families outside the pass are like branches of the sa tree. Mr. Liu saved Bao Wu’s life, and that ans he saved my life as well. Preserving the Yuan Family’s dignity also preserves the face of the five families outside the pass."

"Of course, that’s just to say. If your demands are too high, I’d have to find an excuse to send you away."

Manager Hui smiled and said.

"Hahaha, Manager Hui certainly speaks his mind."

He paused montarily and laughed heartily.

"With smart people, one speaks smartly. I could tell at a glance you’re a smart person, Mr. Liu, extrely clever even."

Manager Hui complinted.

"Just minor cleverness. Although I have few hairs, I still have so."

Liu Zheng ruffled his seaweed-like hair and said.

"Hahaha. No worries, baldness is a sign of strength; only successful n go bald."

Manager Hui reassured.

"It’s hard to take those words seriously from you."

He said, looking at his counterpart’s shiny, black hair.

"It’s a transplant. If you’re interested, Mr. Liu, I can tell you the clinic’s address. Being introduced by a friend gets you a 20% discount."

Manager Hui said.

"Forget it, I’m always between life and death. Even if I transplant, I’d end up dead from an unknown AOE sooner or later. Let’s talk business."

After the pleasantries, Liu Zheng got to the point.

"I want to buy a dragon."

"What kind of dragon?"

Manager Hui asked back.

"A True Dragon, not a Dragon Descendant or a sub-dragon."

He replied.

"We don’t have any. If our business got hold of a True Dragon, there might not even be a ’Hui Family’ among the five families outside the pass."

Manager Hui shook his head and said.

"Then a dragon egg or a dragon cub would do."

Liu Zheng conceded.

Propose sothing outrageous first, wait for a rejection, then present the real request, a common negotiation tactic.

"There’s no dragon cub. We do have a dragon egg, but the dragon embryo inside is already dead."

Manager Hui said.

"By ’dead’ you an it can’t hatch?"

"Under normal circumstances, that’s the case. But if a large amount of high-quality Power of Death is infused, it might hatch into an undead dragon."

Manager Hui replied.

"A large amount of high-quality Power of Death..."

He imdiately thought of the Resentnt Fish the Pond Master ntioned.

But the Resentnt Fish had a problem: if the user’s strength is insufficient, they’d get assimilated. And if an undead fish hatches, it may be unusable.

However, there shouldn’t be a shortage of Power of Death in a cetery, he could ask the Tomb Guardian when he gets there. For now, obtaining the dragon egg was the priority.

"I wonder if Manager Hui would be willing to part with that dragon egg and sell it to ?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"If soone else wanted to buy it, I’d definitely say it’s not for sale. But if you want to buy it, Mr. Liu, the price is one million flat."

Manager Hui said.

"Mind if I make a call?"

"Of course not."

"Sorry."

He dialed Doctor Nile’s number.

"Doctor, is a million a reasonable price for a dragon egg with a dead embryo?"

Liu Zheng asked outright.

"It’s quite cheap. If it were buying, I could accept around one hundred fifty thousand."

Doctor Nile replied.

"Alright. Sorry for the laughter."

He hung up and said to Manager Hui.

"It’s nothing, I actually admire your straightforwardness, Mr. Liu."

Manager Hui nodded.

"Since we’re being straightforward, then let be even more so. Does your business accept installnt paynts or trades? If necessary, even paynt in kind."

Liu Zheng brazenly said.

"When you say ’paynt in kind’, what exactly do you an?"

Manager Hui showed interest.

"If your business has any urgent issues, I could help. I have so connections in various circles in the tropolis, specializing in mass wipeouts and explosions."

He said with a smile.

"Oh, I thought you ant selling your body parts."

Manager Hui said, sowhat disappointed.

"Is your business interested?"

"Of course, Black Mountain Goat Cub is always a sought-after high-end ingredient for major restaurants."

"But aren’t Black Mountain Goat Cubs regenerable? Just keeping one could an an endless supply."

Liu Zheng doubted.

"They’re not easy to raise. The gods behind them won’t allow such things. No matter what thods are used, the longest they survive is a month."

Manager Hui shook his head and said.

"Alright then."

Co to think of it, that Divine could even descend within the shelter, far above Amaterasu omikami in status.

"It’s not that I wouldn’t sell to you."

He thought for a mont and said.

Though selling one’s own flesh and blood had considerable risks, Liu Zheng had done it more than once already, so many debts that they weren’t worrying anymore.

Besides, with all the ssy marks on him, if anyone used curses, hexes, or voodoo on him, it’s uncertain who’d end up unlucky.

"Great! Most of these rare ingredients end up with your Bloody Restaurant, making them perpetually out of stock. Mr. Liu, if you’re willing to sell your flesh, the price won’t let you down."

Manager Hui said excitedly.

"Literal flesh cutting, right?"

Liu Zheng twitched his mouth.

"Then let’s get started, cut quickly, I’m afraid of pain."

He closed his eyes.

"Alright then. Guys, shut the door and bring in the knife-wielder."

Manager Hui shouted.

Ten minutes later, a bloodied Liu Zheng lay on the coffee table, eyes vacant.

Aside from leaving one tentacle for ergencies, all parts of his body had been sold.

Even those parts over here and there.

While there was pain relief, such agony was still unbearable for normal people.

Therefore, he could only numb himself, ntally viewing himself as a walking corpse.

"Mr. Liu, hang in there, I’ll apply so dicine now."

Manager Hui brought over a big jar and said.

"What’s this? Damn it!"

Liu Zheng’s eyes regained clarity, and all the withheld pain surged at once.

"This is the Bai Family’s muscle and bone strengthening cream, highly effective for treating external injuries."

Manager Hui explained.

Among the five families outside the pass, the Bai Family was the most gentle in their dealings, and their mbers often had the best temperants, rarely engaging in conflicts with others.

But this didn’t an the Bai Family’s status was low. On the contrary, they ranked second among the five families, just below the Hu Family.

The Bai Family had innate talent in dicine, not only running many clinics inside and outside the city but even getting into "hospitals."

It’s said the most skilled one had achieved the rank of deputy chief physician.

With the exorbitant dical costs in the tropolis, the Bai Family had been raking in profits over the years.

The muscle and bone strengthening cream Manager Hui used on Liu Zheng was among the top-tier dicines sold by the Bai Family and certainly honored Yuan Baoer.

Layer after layer of ointnt, like ointnt applied all over the body, Liu Zheng felt the pain gradually disappearing, replaced by a strange sensation akin to that of applying nthol.

And his flesh and blood rapidly healed with each wave of coolness, returning to their original form.

"Here, this is also a specialty item from our business."

Manager Hui pulled out a small cloth bag and poured out a green bean, handing it to him.

Liu Zheng took the bean, and the item description popped up imdiately.

"Na: Inferior Immortal Bean (One-ti use)"

"Type: Item"

"Quality: Excellent"

"Effect: Restores a large amount of stamina and allows surplus stamina to be stored for three days. After the duration ends, the surplus stamina will be expelled automatically."

"Note: If there’s no restroom within ten ters of you, you’d better not take the risk, thinking it’s just gas."

"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"

"Luckily, I already have the ability to store stamina."

He looked at the effect and note and felt fortunate.

But on second thought, it didn’t matter since, with his high frequency of injuries, the surplus stamina never got the chance to be expelled automatically.

Liu Zheng swallowed the inferior immortal bean in one gulp, feeling his stamina replenish once more.

"Is the money enough?"

He asked.
