Hearing that, Hua Xiangyu said angrily, “Bei Yuanqing, you’re royalty, after all. Take note of your image!”
“Aiya, since Miss Xiangyu had spoken,” Bei Yuanqing suddenly became serious, “I promise not to laugh!”
“Crazy people are usually like that.” Bei Yuanqing almost wanted to strangle Hong Dali when he heard that. Then, he picked up the second purple package. “Let’s see what this is.”
It was a giant sword, about two meters long and one foot wide. It looked formidable and powerful.
Everyone’s hearts were in their mouths.
Soon, the attributes were revealed. Hua Xiangyu spoke ahead of Bei Yuanqing this time. “Evil-breaker Giant Sword, made of spirit-jade iron. Increase all attributes by 200 points. Three inlaid gems are all top-grade gems of 20 attribute points. Market price 750,000.”
This time, it was Hong Dali’s turn to be happy. They had bought it for 500,000, and it had a selling price of 750,000. It was not bad.
Hong Dali nodded, satisfied. Then, he looked at Bei Yuanqing. “For you. Do you want it?”
“This piece of rubbish.” Bei Yuanqing sneered. “Our Bei Family’s weapons are tens of thousands times better than this. Do you think I will want it?”
“I think so, too. Even if you want it, I won’t give it to you.” Hong Dali chuckled as he licked his ice cream. “Some people should not flatter themselves too much. Hehe, hehehehe…”
He made Bei Yuanqing hopping mad again. He almost wanted to hit Hong Dali. Hua Xiangyu laughed till she fell. When Hong Dali was mischievous, he could really drive one up the wall!
“Rascal, I’ll see how long you can carry on!” Bei Quanqing’s face turned green. Zhu Ningyu was also getting upset with Hong Dali by the minute.
They were mad at Hong Dali’s carefreeness!
Then, the third purple package. This was a necklace with ordinary attributes. Market price 160,000. Thrown away decisively. Bei Yuanqing and Zhu Ningyu looked at each other, beaming.
Gambling treasures, just one good item out of ten was considered not bad. Otherwise, why would one say it was good for squandering. They had brought Hong Dali here on purpose so he would squander! The more Hong Dali lost, the happier they were!
Soon, it was the last item.
It was a dirty-looking helmet. It did not look much on the outside. Of course, that was not important. Encapsulated, its exterior was all covered up. Otherwise, it would not be called gambling treasures.
Everyone took a deep breath. Would this last item be of good quality? If it was still rubbish, just these few purple packages would have cost Hong Dali two million.
The encapsulation button was soon taken off. The helmet emitted a dazzling shine. When everyone saw its attributes, they were completely dumbstruck!
The real appearance of the helmet was displayed before everyone after its packing was taken off.
It was a silvery-white helmet with a pair of beautiful wings on its sides. A charming red gemstone was inlaid on the forehead area. From the light emitted by the red gemstone, one could be sure that this was definitely a super precious attribute gemstone!
And that was not the thing that made the helmet valuable. After all, attribute gems did not add many attributes at the Star Sector-level. The key was the material of this helmet! It was something that people felt comfortable without even wearing it. Hong Dali was most familiar with such a feeling—it was the reverberation of life!
“This… this is…” A helmet with the Health attribute was enough for Bei Yuanqing to be dumbfounded. As he took a closer look at the actual attributes of the helmet, he sucked in a cold breath of air. “Sunscale Helmet, it’s actually a Sunscale Helmet!”
“Sunscale Helmet? What’s that?” Just from Bei Yuanqing’s expression, Hong Dali could tell that this helmet must be worth a lot. He did not feel much about it just from its name. Hence, he looked at Hua Xiangyu. “Sister Xiangyu, what kind of helmet is this?”
Hearing that, Hua Xiangyu’s expression was a little weird. Bei Yuanqing anxiously explained to Hong Dali. “Sunscale Helmet, its full name is Wings of the Starry Sky. Sunscale Sarah Loudis’ Helmet of Life. The attribute of this helmet increases strength by 160 and has a recovery effect on injuries. Its defense is also quite strong. The most important thing is that this is a suit! Wings of the Starry Sky suit!”
Damn, this piece of equipment came in a suit?
“Wings of the Starry Sky,” Bei Yuanqing was very excited, “was created by Sunscale Sarah Loudis, blacksmith of the Shenglong Astral. There are only 3 sets in the entire astral. It includes a helmet, shoulder plates, cuirass, vambrace, cuisses, faulds, greaves, and gauntlets. Eight pieces in all. Only the best blacksmith can forge a full suit of armor like this. The attributes of the wearer are greatly increased after one puts on all the equipment. Two pieces will increase 200 points on all attributes. Four pieces will increase recovery speed by 50%. Six pieces will increase all attributes by 20%, and when the eight pieces are gathered, all the attributes will be doubled on top of its individual increase! Doubled!”
Speaking up to this point, Bei Yuanqing gulped and said, “The helmet in your hands, just the helmet, its market price is 160 million! And this is the amount people are offering. If you put it in the auction house, it would be no problem to sell it for 200 to 300 million!”
Damn, so amazing?!
Two pieces would increase 200 points on all attributes. Four pieces would increase recovery speed. Six pieces would increase all attributes by 20%. And when the eight pieces were gathered, all the attributes would be doubled on top of its individual increase! Doubled!
Hong Dali looked at Tang Muxin and nodded decisively. “Such a treasure? It seems we are going to be Feats of Strength in the future! It would be embarrassing to meet others if we were not fully armored!”
Li Nianwei was the attentive one. She realized Hua Xiangyu’s expression did not seem right. So, she asked softly, “Miss Xiangyu, what’s wrong? Are you unwell?” She held Hua Xiangyu’s hand gently and soon realized the problem. “I haven’t noticed this surge of life energy in your body previously, now it seems…”
As if it were to verify Li Nianwei’s words, Bei Yuanqing finally revealed his fangs. “Hehe, Dali ah, as far as I know, Miss Xiangyu is wearing the Wings of Starry Sky suit. Coincidentally, she is just short of the helmet to complete the entire suit…” Bei Yuanqing had said that on purpose to make Hong Dali depressed.
One should know, this helmet was worth a lot.
Wings of Starry Sky suit, just the helmet could be sold for 300 million. And this was just a single piece. If one already had all the other pieces and was only short of this piece, they would buy it even if it was sold for one billion.
But here came the problem. Hua Xiangyu was just short of this helmet. Wasn’t Hong Dali rich? 800,000 or one million was nothing to him. Would he care about 300 million or 500 million?
Bei Yuanqing was bound to be depressed today.
If it were anyone else, they would definitely consider carefully. They would at least ask for something in return. But when Hong Dali heard that, he turned to look at Hua Xiangyu immediately and put the helmet on her without saying anything.
He actually put the helmet on Hua Xiangyu without any hesitation! After he put the helmet on, he even nodded with satisfaction. “Haha, Sister Xiangyu, you look like a saint with the helmet on. It looks good. It looks really good!”
Hua Xiangyu was already a beauty. Her beauty was definitely comparable to Li Nianwei and Tang Muxin. She was not too old as well. Her body was slim and her breasts were a little flat. But one could imagine how she would look in her twenties.
With the Wings of Starry Sky helmet, she looked delicate and attractive, but also hearty and spirited. Two completely different feels on one person. The shock was beyond everyone’s imagination!
At this moment, Bei Yuanqing was stunned, Zhu Ningyu was stunned, Hua Xiangyu was stunned herself.
If that was logical and natural, probably only Hong Dali and his group thought that way—Hong Dali would never look at the price when he gave someone a gift. As long as he liked someone, he would gift them anything he wanted.
At this moment, when some passersby saw the helmet on Hua Xiangyu, they were all shocked. “That, that’s the Wings of Starry Sky helmet! Wings of Starry Sky helmet! This… could it be from treasure gambling?!” “That can’t be? That helmet is worth at least 200 million. Is it possible to get something like that from treasure gambling?!” “Look at the energy surge, this is… this is only possible when the entire suit is put together. Could it be that the suit is completed?!”
Everyone was engrossed in their discussions. Hua Xiangyu was shell-shocked. She hurriedly attempted to take off the helmet. “Big Brother Dali, this helmet is too expensive. I cannot accept it. How about I go back and tell my mother about it, so she can buy it from you?”
It was something worth hundreds of millions, after all. This was not something that could be given when asked.
To the Shenglong Royalty, hundreds of millions of Shenglong Dollars were not much. But it was not a small sum, either. After all, even if a family had five billion, to spend 500 million on equipment, and it was just one piece of an entire suit, it was easier said than done.
“Oh, it’s just a lousy helmet, I can’t take money from you.” Hong Dali said as matter-of-factly, “Just keep it on. Your Big Brother Dali is rich. It’s okay. This is just so-so. Small matter. I have no use for it, anyway. Aiya, I made you call me Big Brother Dali previously, I should have given you a gift then. But there was nothing suitable at that time. Now, at least this helmet is worthy enough. You can have it, haha!”
Look at how generous others were. Only something worth 300 million was worthy enough. A prodigal indeed. Things were done on a different scale!
At this time, Zhu Ningyu’s expression when she looked at Hong Dali was no longer dismissive. She was envious and jealous! This rascal’s luck was actually so good. He just bet a few million on treasure gambling and actually got such a top-grade item! And he gave it away! He gave it to her arch-enemy Hua Xiangyu!
Bei Yuanqing was so angry his heart pounded wildly. He had wanted to see the conflict between them both over a piece of equipment. Who would have thought that their relationship actually improved! And the person that made that happen was himself! Look at Hua Xiangyu’s blushing face. She could probably call “Big Brother Dali” more sweetly in the future!
Damn, I can’t take this lying down!
