937 Do You Know What Ore Is? (2)
“Elder Luo, let me explain,” Feng Wu said in a deep voice. “To be honest with you, Elder Luo, I made a deal with the fire race.”
Elder Luo nodded. The griffin race was a merchant race. It wasn’t strange that they had done business with the fire race.
“I had a few acquaintances in the fire race. Before the fire race was destroyed, a friend kept something with me,” Feng Wu continued.
“At the time, I didn’t think too much about it. Our griffin race will never reject any opportunity to do business. He paid me to safeguard something. Of course, I have to take on such an easy job.!!
“That friend of mine gave me a box to safeguard. At first, I didn’t know what was inside. Later, when the fire race was destroyed, this box became ownerless.
“I thought about it for a long time before I decided to open it. It’s not that I don’t follow the rules, but my employer is already dead. I can’t keep it safe forever, right?
“That’s when I found this.”
Elder Luo frowned and looked thoughtful. After a while, he said, “You’re saying that before the fire race was destroyed, someone from the fire race stored some things with your griffin race?”
His eyes shone. This was something they hadn’t expected.
In their opinion, it was impossible for the fire race to give such a treasure to outsiders. If they really stored it with the griffin race, it was no wonder that the three races couldn’t find that thing even after digging three feet into the ground.
“Yes.” Feng Wu suddenly realized something. “Elder Luo, this is the only thing the fire race stored with me. There’s absolutely nothing else.
“I knew that you would definitely like this thing, so I came immediately.”
Feng Wu squeezed out a smile. “Elder Luo, name a price. I’ll sell this Wind and Thunder Twin Wings to you.”
“What do you want?” Elder Luo said coldly, his eyes flickering.
“Elder Luo, the Wind and Thunder Twin Wings is an unprecedented treasure. Let’s not talk about its power for now. If you know how it was made, its significance will be different,” Feng Wu said confidently.
“The golden-winged roc race ranks sixth among the ancient races. Elder Luo, you’re a high and mighty figure. I’m sure you definitely won’t take advantage of a small merchant like me.”
“A griffin race member is still considered a small merchant?” Elder Luo sneered.
“But you’re right. My golden-winged roc race won’t take advantage of you,” Elder Luo said. With a flash, he was already in front of Feng Wu and snatched the Wind and Thunder Twin Wings from him.
“I want this Wind and Thunder Twin Wings,” Elder Luo said coldly. “Not only do I want the Wind and Thunder Twin Wings, but I also want you to help me ask the griffin race something. My golden-winged roc race wants everything that the fire race left with the griffin race. The price will be up to your griffin race!”
The griffin race was not the fire race. Even the golden-winged roc race couldn’t destroy them just like that.
After all, the griffin race ranked eleventh among the ancient races. Their strength might not be much inferior to the golden-winged roc race’s.
There were even people who suspected that if not for the fact that the griffin race focused on business and didn’t like fighting, they would have been able to enter the top ten.
This was also one of the reasons why Feng Wu dared to negotiate with the golden-winged roc race. Otherwise, why would he dare to do business with them?
“Elder Luo, according to the rules of our griffin race, we can only make one business deal at a time. Once one business deal is done, we will talk about the next one.” Feng Wu had a smile on his face, like a small vendor trying to please a customer. “Elder Luo, why don’t you pay the price of the Wind and Thunder Twin Wings first?”
Elder Luo’s face darkened. “Feng Wu, you’re not even giving me face?”
“Elder Luo, what are you saying?” Feng Wu complained. “If I didn’t give you face, I wouldn’t have come. It’s really the rules of the race. If I dare to break the rules, the ancestor of our griffin race will definitely skin me alive.”
A trace of fear flashed across Elder Luo’s eyes. The ancestor of the griffin race was an existence who had awakened his true spirit. No one knew how strong he was because those who had seen how strong he was were already dead.
Such an existence was the source of the griffin race’s confidence. Even the golden-winged roc race was extremely afraid.
Elder Luo took a deep breath and said coldly, “Alright, I’ll give it to you! What do you want this time? Rare treasures or food and herbs?”
There was no common currency among the ancient races. They usually bartered, and the most popular among them were naturally food and medicinal herbs that any race liked.
Some other rare treasures were also liked by the big races.
The Wind and Thunder Twin Wings was classified as a rare treasure.
“Elder Luo, I don’t want any of those things this time.” Feng Wu shook his head. “I want ore.”
“Ore?” Elder Luo frowned. “You mean stones?”
“Stones, but not ordinary stones,” Feng Wu said. He was actually a little puzzled, but this was what Zhou Shu had told him when he left the giant spirit race.
“I have a catalog here.” Feng Wu took out a picture book from his pocket. “Any stone drawn in this picture book is fine. I think my Wind and Thunder Twin Wings are worth at least five million kilograms of ore, right?”
Elder Luo took the picture book and casually flipped through a few pages. There were all kinds of stones drawn on them. He didn’t know how Feng Wu did it, but these pictures were actually colorful, allowing people to find them according to the picture.
A strange light flashed across Elder Luo’s eyes. He pondered and said, “These ores aren’t worth much, but I need to mobilize people to find them. You might have to wait for a while.”
Feng Wu smiled. “That’s not a problem. As merchants, we don’t lack patience.”
“Alright, wait here for a while. I’ll make arrangements,” Elder Luo said. “Stay with our golden-winged roc race for the time being. When I’ve found enough ore, we’ll talk about what the fire race stored with the griffin race.”
Then Elder Luo walked out.
Feng Wu rolled his eyes and sat down in the room. The houses of the golden-winged roc race are built so crudely. How can I obtain the construction method of the giant spirit race’s houses?
Feng Wu thought of Zhou Shu’s Lingxiao Treasure Palace. If he could promote the Lingxiao Treasure Palace to the various large races, wouldn’t he be rich?
…
Elder Luo left the room, spread the wings on his back, and flew directly to the core of the golden-winged roc race’s territory. This was where the Golden-Winged Roc King lived.
After hearing Elder Luo’s report, the dignified Golden-Winged Roc King pondered and said, “Wind and Thunder Twin Wings? The griffin race? Has the item fallen into the hands of the griffin race? It won’t be easy to snatch.”
“Your Majesty, there’s no need to rob them forcefully. The griffin race are merchants. There’s nothing they won’t sell,” Elder Luo said in a low voice. “I have detained Feng Wu here. This news won’t leak for the time being. Since he wants ores, we’ll give them to him. We’ll deal with him later after we get it.”
“That’s a small matter,” The Golden-Winged Roc King said indifferently. “Getting that thing is the main point. One can actually make use of the Wind and Thunder Twin Wings to control the power of lightning. The fire race really invented something amazing. Unfortunately, there are some things that they can’t come into contact with.”
The Golden-Winged Roc King sighed. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning shot out from his palm and landed on the Wind and Thunder Twin Wings that Elder Luo had brought.
Boom!
The power of lightning landed on the Wind and Thunder Twin Wings. Suddenly, the Wind and Thunder Twin Wings shone brightly, and an aura soared into the sky. Every silver scale that formed it seemed to come alive.
The Golden-Winged Roc King frowned. “These are the scales of the silver scale race? The fire race!”
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly raised his head. In the distance, a powerful aura was rapidly approaching.
