Chapter 19: 19

There’s no movement on the other end. Clearly, he’s deep in thought. Shen Fei wasn’t in a hurry either, because these things were not necessary for him. However, water was the source of life. It’s easy to tell which was more important.

If anyone should get anxious, it’d be the Italian player. Before long, he sent a message over.

Italian player said, “I can exchange the longsword with you. It has the best attributes among the three pieces.” He implied that the other two pieces could not be exchanged.

Shen Fei said, “If you want to trade, I want the whole set. If you separate it, the effect will be greatly reduced.”

The Italian player fell into silence once again. However, if he exchanged all the water, it meant that there was no guarantee of safety. If he were to encounter any danger later on, he would not even have a handy tool. The Italian player immediately fell into a dilemma.

The Italian player said, “No, I can only exchange two items at most. It’s up to you. You can still activate the set effect. This is the last line. After all, I need something to defend myself. You know that the desert is filled with dangers. I have to hold on to a card.”

“As long as you trade with me, I promise you in the name of the godfather of the Mafia that I will do my best to help you in the future. When we return to reality, I will even be able to give you a large amount of wealth.”

His words were sincere and moving. However, Shen Fei wasn’t moved. It’s not that he’s cold-blooded. It’s just that the two of them were strangers. Neither were they from the same country. Furthermore, they were in an unusual environment.

It was already decent of him to not add insult to injury and take advantage of the situation. Expecting him to practice charity wasn’t very possible. He was not a saint. He wouldn’t mind the business of others when he was too busy minding his own.

Since he has already said it so absolutely, the Italian player probably wouldn’t give in. The two sides were at a stalemate. Just when Shen Fei was considering whether to reject it, golden words appeared in front of him.

[Gentle reminder: What if the trade falls into a stalemate? You can try to increase your chips. Not only can you obtain items, you can also obtain sincere gratitude.]

Just when the Italian player was thinking of retreating, Shen Fei sent a message.

“I can add another 100 kg of water for you. In addition, I will help you build protective gear with stone and wood. You should know that water shortage in the desert is the most fatal. Are you sure you can persevere? Furthermore, trading with others might not give you so much water.”

This struck a chord with the Italian player. After all, everyone had seen the Egyptian player slashing price. To put it bluntly, it was no different from robbery.

In comparison, Shen Fei’s price was already very reasonable. The armor made of stone and wood is definitely not as good as the mithril set. However, it could still be used. If the next trader was exploitative, he might not even have a place to lament his misfortunes.

“Much obliged, big shot. If you need any help in the future, just let me know. I absolutely will not refuse.”

[Trade successful

[You have obtained mithril set]

A white light flashed. Before Shen Fei, the set consisting of[slender sword],[arm shield], and [soft armor]appeared.

The slender sword was similar in style to a Western rapier. The blade was extremely thin, with complicated and mysterious patterns engraved on it. The light circulated on it, like a layer of cold moonlight, containing a great power. It fit just right in Shen Fei’s grip.

It was the same for the arm shield and soft armor. Other than those mysterious patterns, there were not many decorations around them. They looked extremely light and did not have much weight on them. They did not affect their mobility, but they were very sturdy and difficult to break through.

Shen Fei was very satisfied with the mithril set.

The trade between him and the Italian player was successful. The Japanese player that came over first still didn’t give any reaction. He was likely waiting for the price to increase. Looking at the chat box without any notifications, Shen Fei frowned.

“He’s quite patient.”

Time ticked by. Instead of sending him a message, the Japanese player began interacting with the Egyptian player.

Shen Fei had fallen into a disadvantageous state. If this continued, the situation would only get worse for him.

He had a head start only because he was the first to arrive at the oasis. He had most of the water resources, but as time passed, it was hard to guarantee that others wouldn’t gradually arrive at oases too.

Then, he would not be able to monopolize the market, and the others would have more choices. The rarest things were always the most precious, and once they overflowed, it would also mean a drop in value.

Shen Fei had to reevaluate the situation. He didn’t want to end up with nothing, like a player from a certain country.

He didn’t lack water at the moment. He had to collect as many gadgets and materials as possible while the water resources were rare. Now that the Japanese player was in contact with the Egyptian player, it meant that there were more variables.

“I have to finish the trade before the next person reaches the oasis.”

The game allowed for a gap between players, but this range definitely wouldn’t be too big. After all, the game had only just begun. If the gap was too big, how could the others continue? It would just become a game with decisive victory for one side.

Therefore, Shen Fei guessed that it wouldn’t be long before someone else would discover the second oasis. If his luck was any better, he might already be near the oasis.

“I don’t have much time left. I have to think of a way.”

Shen Fei looked at the window showing the successful trade just now. He immediately thought of a plan and contacted the Italian player.

“Are you there?”

“Yes. What’s the matter, big shot?”

“Do me a favor. I won’t let you work for nothing. I’ll give you more water.”

“Big shot, you’re too polite. Just tell me what it is.”

…

Very soon, the Italian player sent a message in the world chat, “I really can’t hold on any longer. Big shot Shen Fei, please give me some water. Just 100 kg will do. I’ll exchange it for the mithril set!”

Since it was public, everyone might have received the notification.

The Italian player said, “If 100 kg is too much, 80 kg is fine too. Big shot, please make the trade with me.”

The Japanese player knitted his brows. He could tell that Shen Fei was quite interested in his item as well. Originally, he wanted to give Shen Fei the cold shoulder for a while. He also pretended to interact with the Egyptian player, wanting Shen Fei to get anxious and take the bait.

Who would have thought that a spanner in the works would appear, and the Italian player would come out of nowhere?

Italian player said, “Big shot, please have mercy and make the trade with me. I really need water, or I’m a goner.”

He said it with great sincerity and sent a few messages consecutively. Anyone could feel the urgency in his words. It was evident that he was really at the end of his rope.

Shen Fei said, “I really want to help you too, but I don’t have much water left.”

The Italian player said, “No amount of help is too little. If you really can’t, 60 kg is fine too.”

Initially, the Japanese player was still a little hesitant. But when he saw this message, his pupils constricted.

If the trade between Shen Fei and the Italian player was successful, then the trade between them would fall through completely. Furthermore, the resources of the Egyptian player were simply not enough for his needs..
