Chapter 484 - 307: A Cry for Help from the Company

’Capitalist wants L-Class and A-Class Potions?’

Lin Qi instantly understood what Capitalist wanted to do.

She probably wanted them to strengthen Jingang.

Jingang was a Pure Prosthetic Implanter and possessed no Extraordinary Power of his own.

The advancement difficulty for such Pure Prosthetic Implanters was very high, especially when they reached the A-Class or even S-Class stage.

High-Level Prosthetic Bodies eroded the human nervous system at a terrifying rate. Many flagship S-Class Prosthetic Bodies were even so-called Immortal Prosthetic Bodies, which incorporated Extraordinary Items.

Implanting such a thing required paying a price similar to Wang Qiang from the Doomsday World, making it very easy to become a cyber madman.

To increase one’s prosthetic capacity, the most direct method was to enhance the Implanter’s Physical Strength.

Without any Extraordinary Abilities, using Potions was the best method.

Potions from the Cyber World could certainly increase physical strength, but due to the limitations of Spiritual Particle concentration, there were significant gaps between Potions of different levels.

It was almost unheard of for someone to reach a Tier Four level of physical fitness just by continuously taking potions.

Lin Qi’s superior potions filled this gap perfectly.

Lin Qi himself was a prime example.

Lin Qi took Potions every day, and his current physical fitness was comparable to that of a Tier Two Martial Artist, and he wasn’t far from reaching Tier Three.

Unfortunately, Lin Qi’s Talent for Prosthetic Bodies was limited. Even with his enhanced physical fitness, his prosthetic capacity was still below average for someone in his condition.

’An increase in Jingang’s combat power is a good thing for the Highest-Level Mercenary Corps, which in turn is a good thing for me. A favor from Capitalist is very valuable.’

After thinking for just a moment, Lin Qi gave his reply.

Wizard: "No problem. I can provide a sufficient amount of the new L-Class and A-Class Potions. However, compared to the value of a Tier Four Extraordinary Item, these potions are a bit modest. Consider the lower-level potions a gift. Once the effects of the new S-Class Potion have stabilized, I can trade you a set of the new S-Class Potions for the Tier Four Extraordinary Item."

Tier Four Extraordinary Items were extremely valuable, a major reason being the existence of Wizard Professionals in the Cyber World.

Under normal circumstances, you couldn’t buy a Tier Four Extraordinary Item even if you had the money. But if one had to put a price on it in Credit Points, it would be at least two billion. This included an extremely high premium, yet even at that price, there was no shortage of top-tier Wizard Professionals willing to buy.

In fact, it wasn’t just Wizard Professionals who participated in the rush to buy Extraordinary Items; many large corporations also got involved.

Extraordinary Items were also important materials for producing Potion ingredients. A new Extraordinary Item almost always corresponded to multiple new types of Extraordinary Materials with brand-new properties.

Capitalist: "A very fair trade. I accept. On top of that, I’ll owe you a favor."

Capitalist was not one to take a loss. She instantly calculated the value of this batch of Potions.

A set of Potions contained twelve vials. Based on the previous transaction price of eight million per vial, the value of four sets of the new A-Class Potions would be close to four hundred million Credit Points.

Add to that a set of the new S-Class Potions. If its effects were stable, the price would likely be tens of millions higher than a regular S-Class Potion, potentially even reaching a hundred million Credit Points per vial.

What’s more, this was a trade being conducted by the set!

’Since when could S-Class Potions be traded by the set?’

According to Capitalist’s knowledge, the entire production capacity for S-Class Potions in the Asian Administrative Region was less than three sets per year.

An S-Class Pharmaceutical Researcher, working around the clock and without regard to cost, could only produce a single vial in half a month!

If sets of S-Class Potions were put on the market, the premium would be even more severe.

A rough calculation showed that it was indeed a trade of equal value.

As for the favor, that was because right now, the only person in the entire world who could produce such a batch of goods was this mysterious Wizard from the Mercenary Corps.

The very act of him being willing to sell, regardless of the price, was a favor in itself.

After Lin Qi and Capitalist’s exchange was posted, the temporary chat window fell silent for a long time.

King Arthur and Master Ma, both in the orbital pod, silently gulped.

’A deal worth over four billion, and it was settled this quickly?’

’Is this still the same Highest-Level Mercenary Corps that was supposedly all talk?’

’Since when were their deals on this scale?’

After a little while longer, a new message appeared in the temporary chat window.

Wizard: "@Master Ma, while I’m not charging Credit Points for this Potion, you will need to cover the shipping costs yourself."

The Potions weren’t worth much to Lin Qi. The ingredients were readily available in the Doomsday World, and the only labor cost was a few hours of his own time.

But the shipping fees were tangible costs, and they were incredibly expensive!

Master Ma: "That’s as it should be. But I might need Guang Ling’s help to arrange it."

After talking for a long time, the group finally mentioned Guang Ling, who had been lurking until now.

The moment they were mentioned, Guang Ling sent a message.

Guang Ling: "Transporting S-Class Potions is a highly sensitive matter in the Asian Region. Although Dongfang Logistics’s AI system has confidentiality clauses, anything involving S-Class Potions will inevitably trigger an alarm."

Guang Ling: "There are two ways to handle the transport. The first is to custom-order a special shielded container. It will take about a day and cost fifteen million Credit Points."

Guang Ling: "The second option is for me to interfere with Dongfang Logistics’s internal system, but there’s a roughly twenty percent chance the transport personnel will notice an anomaly, which would expose your identities."

’Identities exposed?’

’Absolutely not!’
