“As expected, Old John is really a Master Gun Mechanic. Hold on. That’s not right. From what he said, it seems as if he is not only a Master Gun Mechanic; instead, he looks to also be adept at manufacturing ammunition at the same time. In addition to that, he’s also capable of crafting alloy power armor. Another three-subject Master. Are all Master Level NPCs adept at multiple skills?” Feng Luo wondered in his mind.

“Regardless, did Old John change so drastically because of the Biohazard Crisis? Or was it due to something else? Did something trigger the hidden mission that he has? Should I do something then?” Feng Luo discovered that he was faced with a serious issue.

He had no idea what caused Old John’s changes, to the point where he did not know how to continue the conversation with Old John now.

Unlike the joy and anxiety that Feng Luo was feeling, My World and his party members rejoiced at hearing the first half of Old John’s sentence. They were ecstatic after learning that Old John could even create Legendary Grade items.

At the moment, only two methods of obtaining a Legendary Grade item were known by the players.

The first was to kill a Super Boss above Level 55, as there was a good chance that it would drop a piece of Legendary Grade equipment.

Ordinary players should simply forget about this method. A Super Boss was more than ten times stronger than common Boss Grade monsters. That Legendary Grade item would have to be exchanged with thousands of players losing levels as well as dropping a lot of items.

The other method was through the completion of hidden missions.

Only incredibly lucky people could even dream of such a possibility. At the moment, the percentage of people lucky enough to encounter such opportunities were as low as 0.1%.

However, right now, they had found the third method.

An NPC actually promised to make them Legendary Grade items. They only needed to provide the materials.

Theoretically speaking, the price of the materials for making Legendary Grade items would also be sky-high. However, this was not an insurmountable problem, as they only needed to find people who were willing to obtain a Legendary Grade item invest in them, the result would still end in them making a huge profit.

Regardless, the reward completely exceeded their expectations.

However, after hearing the second half of Old John’s message, the group’s ecstasy dimmed as they became down again.

The Legendary Grade items created by Old John had the prerequisite of having awakened the Force. Among those who were present, only Feng Luo fit such a requirement.

Old John only promised to reward the four people who protected him, including My World and Watermelon Skin who died during the mission, with the items. He did not promise to make such items for his boss, who had taken him in for free for a few months and also worked just as hard to protect him.

“Finally, to create the Legendary Grade items, the pieces of equipment in our store are inadequate. We need to purchase a set of specialized manufacturing equipment before we can start the initial stages of the work.” Old John seemed to have completely forgotten that he was “Favouring others over his own boss” as he spoke while looking at Feng Luo.

“Why is he staring at me?” Feng Luo was a little confused. After all, Old John was talking about rewarding the other four players, so why was Old John staring at him?

“Wait a minute… This… What Old John just said… Could it be?” Feng Luo suddenly thought of a possibility and his breathing seemed to have hastened.

“The equipment at our store can produce lower-grade Rare Grade items, at best. However, not to mention Legendary Grade items, even high-grade Rare Grade gears would be impossible. Due to the uniqueness of Legendary Grade items, we will also need to purchase a few special equipment sets. As such, you will need to prepare a large budget.” Old John continued speaking and this time, Feng Luo could hear the word “we” very clearly.

“No problem, but how much will I need, approximately?” Feng Luo looked ecstatic as he asked without any hesitation.

Just what did it mean for a player’s store that had a Master Level NPC who could produce Legendary Grade items?

Of course, Feng Luo would not hesitate, no matter how expensive it cost.

“Not a lot. The initial stages will set you back around 500 million credits.” After thinking about it briefly, Old John said as he extended five fingers.

“What? 500 million?” Feng Luo, who was looking very gleeful, almost bit his tongue when he heard the price.

When Feng Luo learned that Old John would not leave his store, Feng Zhi Dan Hen Ammunition Store, he was quite excited and happy.

It was to be expected. After all, a high-grade NPC who could produce Legendary Grade items was definitely an asset of unimaginable value.

Feng Luo had already decided in his mind that he would satisfy Old John’s request no matter what. The reason was that it also concerned about his future wealth.

The number that Old John blurted out was incredibly high, and it really did take him by surprise. 500 million credits. The equipment needed to produce Legendary Grade items was actually priced in the hundreds of millions.

The total value of all everything at his ammunition store was only around five million. This meant that the value was multiplied by 100.

Feng Luo had definitely earned a lot of money in recent times. He had just been credited with a little over 100 million credits.

However, the truth was that the 100 million was his largest earnings ever.

Although the demand for the Permanent Enhancement Potion could never meet the supply over the past month, and while each potion was priced so high that it would scare people, Lin could manufacture around 200 potions in half a month mainly due to the limitations of the source materials. Additionally, as per the agreement with Lin, a lot of the credits earned from the sale of the potions would be used for further research fees, making the amount of money that reached Feng Luo’s pocket was only 300,000 credits per potion.

After around half a month, the Permanent Enhancement Potion brought over 70 million credits into Feng Luo’s account.

However, the start of the Biohazard Crisis storyline decreased the profit of each Permanent Enhancement Potion substantially over the past two days. In the future, he would most likely be able to earn only around 10,000 to a few thousand credits per potion.

The incredible profit originating from the fact that he was ahead of the game’s progress was about to come to an end.

In comparison, earnings from the Eye of the Thunder were at a similar stage.

Due to the limitations of Rare Grade materials, Feng Luo could average less than ten Eye of the Thunders per day.

The Eye of the Thunder was not as attractive as the Permanent Enhancement Potion. With the number of rifles increasing, the price had been on a constant downward trend. At the moment, a standard evaluation Eye of the Thunder was already less than 500,000 credits each.

Deducting the material cost and the auction fee, as well as the system tax, Feng Luo’s earnings were only around 80 million credits.

Additionally, the over 40 Rare Grade items that Feng Luo obtained in the “Big Escape” game earned him around 30 million credits. Counting also the sale of the Whisper of the Wind three-item set, which earned Feng Luo an additional 30.5 million credits, he earned another 60 million credits.

Adding the earnings from the three together would make 210 million. In addition to his earnings for the day, Feng Luo had earned a total of 350 million credits in total.

However, when considering his earnings, there were also expenditures.

In terms of just the hidden skill and equipment of his Light Armor Warrior profession, Feng Luo spent tens of millions of credits.

As for Digital Cat’s experiment and research on the T-750 prototype, approximately 10 million credits had already been spent in just half a month. He would probably have to invest more in that endeavor.

Furthermore, there were also 30 million credits he invested in Lin’s laboratory, as well as over 10 million credits he needed to pay the Huan Yu Company for helping him procure the materials for the Eye of the Thunder.

At the current moment, the amount that Feng Luo could utilize in his account was only around 280 million credits.

In the eyes of the wealthy, 200 million credits, which after exchanging into star coins was only around 20 million star coins, was not a lot. In the eyes of the Rui Conglomerate which made several acquisitions worth billions the day before, it was nothing.

However, not everyone was a large financial conglomerate.

The eight zeros in Feng Luo’s account was, without a doubt, a number that exceeded the realms of over 99% of the players in War.

However, when Old John mentioned 500 million credits for purchasing the equipment set, he said it was only for the initial stages.

“500 million credits? Did I mishear?” Upon hearing Old John’s words, all six members of My World’s team became shell-shocked.

The price was completely unimaginable for them. Just 0.1% of that amount would have been enough to exceed the value of all the members of their party combined.
