Chapter 680 - 339: Essence Feast Company, Illusion
Finally shaking off the Blue Star Navigators, Fang Yu shook his head and glanced at the time.
He didn’t expect that being surrounded by people and forced to take photos had wasted nearly 45 minutes.
However, after entering the Ocean World, many of the Blue Star Navigators’ celebrity-chasing habits seemed to have been brought into this world as well.
It’s just that in this world, the stars people chase have shifted from exceptionally attractive men and women to captains with powerful combat capabilities.
If it were simply about high status, that would be one thing.
But people just prefer the Blue Star Captains who possess combat skills that exceed their status, able to fight across levels.
There seems to be some kind of “genius” imprint on these Blue Star Captains, causing people to instinctively start admiring them.
Although Fang Yu had long warned those people compiling the power rankings to remove his name from the list.
But obviously, those compilers were as stubborn as sticky candy, and insistently kept Fang Yu’s name on the list.
Unintentionally, Fang Yu himself had gained some celebrity effect.
Fang Yu shook his head; he didn’t think this was a good thing and found it somewhat troubling instead.
However, at this moment, he had already shaken off the Blue Star Navigators and could head to the next company to sign a war resources contract.
By the way…
Fang Yu looked at the pitiable amount of Gold Coins on his panel, thinking to himself whether he should ask for more discounts from their boss later.
After all, he was someone from the Old Man’s side.
The boss of the Essence Feast couldn’t ignore him, but would at least have to give face to the Old Man.
As he was pondering, Fang Yu walked all the way and soon arrived at a building.
In front of the building, there was an endless stream of people, and at the door, there was an even longer queue than at Sky Dome Technology.
Looking at this long queue and its slow-moving pace, Fang Yu clicked his tongue.
This queue must be several hundred meters long, right?
Judging by the speed of the queue, it would take several hours before getting to the end.
“Little brother, want to buy the three major resources?”
While Fang Yu was in a daze, a person in a trench coat in the hot weather quietly approached Fang Yu and spoke in a low voice:
“Freshly available three major resources, no need to queue, buy now, get now.”
Fang Yu was stunned, feeling a sense of familiarity, then suspiciously asked, “How much?”
The person grinned, then whispered, “Extraordinary Essence 1kg for 100 Gold Coins, Essence of Flesh and Blood…”
“Stop!”
Fang Yu quickly shook his head, “You’re selling it at double the price of Essence Feast, is this a robbery?”
Normally, Extraordinary Essence is just 50 Gold Coins per kg, and he’s daring to sell it at 100 Gold Coins for a kilo, this is outrageous!
Fang Yu felt displeased.
“Robbery?”
The person hesitated, then smiled, shook his head, and turned to leave.
“In a few days, you may not be able to buy resources… What a fool.”
The person mumbled softly, not caring about someone refusing the business.
Everyone queued for hours, and at most could only buy 5kg, as cultivation resources had purchase limits.
The reason for the high price was due to the massive group of scalpers behind him; his resources had no purchase limit…
…
The mumbling naturally reached Fang Yu’s ears, but Fang Yu paid no attention, and instead, strode toward the Essence Feast company building.
Just as he was about to step into the Essence Feast office building, two figures suddenly appeared in front of Fang Yu.
These were two men in security uniforms, but what surprised Fang Yu was that the energy level fluctuations of these two were anything but ordinary; they were absolutely two top-notch extraordinary powerhouses.
Such powerful people were wearing security uniforms and standing guard at Essence Feast’s entrance?
Fang Yu was a bit surprised.
“These guests wishing to purchase cultivation resources, please queue by yourselves!”
The two looked expressionless as they spoke to Fang Yu.
Hearing the two speak, Fang Yu couldn’t help but smile and said, “There must be some misunderstanding, gentlemen. I’m here on behalf of the South Island military to discuss business with Essence Feast.”
“This time…”
Before he could finish his sentence, a commotion suddenly arose beside him, and then two young men were thrown out by some people.
The two young men looked indignant and shouted, “We’ve already said that we’re here on behalf of the President’s Mansion from Central Continent to discuss business. Aren’t you afraid the President will come after you for this?!”
The next moment, several more sneaky youths were ushered out by others, shouting as they went:
“I already said, I’m here on behalf of the Chief Judge of the Ocean Court, commanded by the Chief Judge to purchase 50 kg of Extraordinary Essence.”
“What? You’re saying the Chief Judge couldn’t possibly buy such a trivial amount of resources? Ridiculous! Is 50 kg trivial?”
“Wait, wait, brother, let go, alright, I admit, I was just trying my luck… How about giving me some leniency?”
“Bang!”
The few youths were thrown out of the Essence Feast company, landing on the ground awkwardly.
They picked themselves up, exchanged glances, but didn’t dare to cause trouble and could only leave sheepishly.
Seeing this scene, Fang Yu was stunned.
“Please leave, dear guest!”
At this moment, the two security guards in front gave Fang Yu a disdainful look and then coldly said:
“There are a dozen or more people from the President’s Mansion here every day, as well as over twenty sent by the Chief Judge of the Ocean Court to purchase resources.”
“As for the South Island military, there are nearly ten a day. Don’t you have any idea what your real status is?”
