There were many cabinets in the warehouse, and each cabinet had a small wooden plaque that marked the category of various items.
Li Yi did not look at the dazzling array of items. After all, most of the items here were useless to him. Moreover, it was best not to act rashly now. Compared to these items, the person in front of him was far more interesting.
It would be good if he had the opportunity to figure out the identity of the person in front of him.
In fact, he had a guess about the identity of the person in front of him.
That person was a player known as a Treasure Merchant in his previous life.
He was a Fast-attack Warrior who was good at concealing himself. He had a powerful intelligence ability. In his previous life, although his reputation was not that famous, he was helpful to players sometimes.
This person was very good at collecting items, and he would often bring out good things that you would not expect. He would not usually expose himself, but he often appears in other people’s private messages.
If someone posted something on the forums, he would contact that player in private and make a deal in the game. No matter how strange the item was, he could find it.
There were even people who wanted to investigate him in private, but to date, they had no results.
This person was very vigilant, and his movements were very strange. Very few people could really find his identity.
He had been appearing as a player without an ID for many years.
This encounter could be considered a fortuitous coincidence.
Li Yi was still not sure if the person in front of him was him. That was why he had followed him intently up till this point.
He wanted to confirm his identity.
Everyone knew that he was a Treasure Merchant, or so others have named him as. However, no one had seen his real ID.
They only knew a code to say when they met. However, that code was only given to him after many people came looking for him in the later stages.
Now, he was not sure if this code would work.
In short, it was best to first get what he wanted and then test it out.
The man brought Li Yi to the innermost corner. He lit the torches in the warehouse and rummaged through the cabinets marked with skills.
After a while, he brought a book to Li Yi.
“Take a look and see if it’s this one.”
Li Yi took the book and glanced at it.
[Item: Tornado Cloud (skill book)]
[Usage requirement: Level 20]
[Effects: Chant for 3 seconds. Summons a small tornado to deal magic damage to a specific location and send enemies flying within a 5 by 5 range. Costs 30 MP per use. The maximum level is level 10!]
These skills before level 30 consumed 30 MP. After reaching level 30, they would increase. This was a way to hinder players from using the skill more frequently.
After reaching level 30, they would undergo the second transition. At that time, the branches of the skills would also become complicated. The MP required for different types of skills would be different. The higher the consumption, the stronger the effects of the skills.
Following that, the demand for potions would increase. At that time, Little Merchant being a Pharmacist would be even more valuable.
Of course, that was all in the future.
Now that Li Yi had obtained the skill book, he was very satisfied and directly gave 100 gold coins to that person. That person was especially shocked when he saw the gold coins in his hand. This was 100 gold coins, Li Yi gave it out so casually.
However, after the shock, that person quickly calmed down.
“Pal, what’s the meaning of this? This skill book is not worth this price.”
The corners of Li Yi’s mouth curled up slightly, revealing a strange smile. A large sword that contained a terrifying aura suddenly appeared in his hand.
That person immediately took a few steps back, and his expression instantly became grave.
However, under the dim candlelight, one could still see the corners of his mouth revealing a mysterious smile.
“Pal, let’s talk it out.”
“Weren’t you looking forward to this moment?”
That person’s eyes lit up, and the smile on his face became even more radiant. It was likely that Li Yi had hit the nail on the head.
“Pal, what do you mean by all this? You were one who revealed your weapon in my warehouse. No matter what, you’re the one with bad intentions, right?”
“This warehouse is not under the jurisdiction of Emperor City. It’s your own actions that lead us here.
“Before you brought me here, you deliberately brought me around to see if I had any accomplices.
“You know that most players without IDs are red names. If a red name player is killed, it will not attract the attention of the authorities.
“In other words, if I make a move and you kill me, you will not be punished. The equipment dropped will belong to your private property.
“If you make a move here, no one will know. After everything is over, you just need to change to another warehouse. Or, have you already prepared another warehouse?”
After Li Yi said this, the other party was silent for a while, but it seemed that he did not intend to admit his true intentions.
“Your imagination is really rich. Are you looking for an excuse for a fight?”
Li Yi saw that the other party had been quibbling, and in his heart, he was even more convinced that this person was the Treasure Merchant who used to have a saying — The heavenly king covers the earth tiger, the chicken stews the mushrooms.
Although the sentence made no sense, Li Ti repeated it word for word. After hearing these words, the person’s eyes focused on Li Yi in front of him.
“These words are the code words that I used when I traded not too long ago.”
It seemed that his guess was right. This was what the Treasure Merchant used in the early stages, but in the later stages, he felt that it was too simple and changed it.
At the beginning, Li Yi was uncertain when he started trading on the forum, so he did not dare to say it, but in the end, he decided to give it a try.
He did not expect it to really work.
“I heard about you from my friend. He told me that there was a powerful guy who could find any treasure. I didn’t believe it at first, but now I believe it.”
After saying that, Li Yi put Deaths Descent back. However, the other party still did not let down his guard.
“What do you want?”
Li Yi removed the Nameless Cloak and raised his hands to make himself look as amiable as possible.
“I just want to be friends with you.”
“Friends?”
That person saw the ID on Li Yi’s head and instantly walked into the darkness, then, he disappeared and appeared in front of Li Yi. At this moment, a voice came from all around.
“The famous Carefree Dream wants to be friends with me. I don’t believe this kind of thing. Why don’t you just tell me your true intentions?”
The skill that this person made just now caused Li Yi’s eyes to light up. This kind of ability to blend into the environment was a Chameleon skill.
It could allow one to assimilate with the surrounding environment and launch surprise attacks.

This skill was usually unique. If this kind of person became his partner, it would be the greatest benefit for Li Yi.
“I really only want to be friends. Since you’re wary of me, let’s chat another day. If you wish to find me, you can just look for the Scorching Sun’s Guild Leader, Sun Conqueror.”
After saying that, Li Yi turned around and left the warehouse. He knew that he could no longer work as a lone wolf.
He needed more partners, and this person was the one he favored the most at the moment.
When Li Yi left, the person looked at Li Yi’s departing figure with lingering fear in his heart as he thought to himself, ‘Could it be that he really came to make friends with me?’
