Chapter 527 You Are Well Prepared.
Chapter 528 You are well prepared.
The three of Aiwass sat at the table and waited, and soon Hypatia made three cups of coffee and brought them over.
She looks so young that one wonders whether she can hold three cups of coffee.
"Have Chunbai told you the specific rules?"
Stepping on the small steps next to the table, Hypatia asked while distributing coffee to the three of them.
"I probably know. Limited time... right."
Aiwass confirmed: "But you can also tell them again."
Hypatia nodded and looked directly at Sherlock, who was also on the path of wisdom: "From the moment you drink the first sip of coffee, you will be able to see another world and the hidden occult books. . Once you drink coffee, you can't talk to other people.
"The total validity time of each cup of coffee is about one hour. A cup of coffee costs 500 gold coins. You can stay here until you finish it. The transaction is over when you leave the store. You can wait for the illusion to end before taking another sip, and use the rest time to recover. You can also take notes in it. Or you can drink it all in one sitting. You can read as many books as you want during this hour, and you can also choose to copy them.”
The young elf puffed up his chest proudly: "All the tantra books and classics here cannot be bought outside. As for finding books, it is also very simple... just follow your own instinct. Wait until you enter the hallucination Then the book that is most compatible with you will shine in your eyes."
Hearing this, Sherlock first turned his head and looked at Aiwass.
After Aiwass nodded, he took a sip of coffee without thinking.
Sherlock covered his forehead. After a brief period of dizziness, he stood up in surprise, looked around, and stared at Hypatia in surprise. He bowed slightly and walked towards the bookshelf.
Immediately afterwards, Lily also drank the cup of coffee in front of her.
After they all stood up and left, Aiwass looked at Hypatia.
"Ms. Hypatia, if I wanted to buy out a book, what would the price be?"
"Buyout?"
Hypatia asked with great interest: "Shall we buy it directly?"
"Yes, not an illusion. But the entity of the book, the real tantra book."
Aiwass replied.
Although there is a tantra book here, you can basically only read the cover.
Because the Tantra book has a special way of inheritance, it must be read continuously, and it may seem like you will fall into an illusion. People who are already crazy cannot become crazy again, so after drinking the coffee called "Paradox: Reality and Illusion", they will no longer be able to understand the tantra book. But other occult classics can be learned from here.
The collection of books here is very incomplete, but very rare. Mainly a single copy. These are all collected by Hybasa from the dream world over the years.
"Which one?"
"It hasn't been decided yet, let's wait and see what they choose."
"No matter which copy it is, it will be expensive if you want to buy it permanently. I have only one copy here."
Haibasa said with a smile and spread his right hand: "A book of 50,000 gold coins only accepts cash transactions. This is a special discount. The price may have to increase next time."
"fifty thousand?"
Aiwass confirmed: "Are you talking about 50,000 star antimony gold coins?"
"That's right. In terms of white crown coins, it's equivalent to eighty thousand."
Hypatia leaned on the table in front of Aiwass, tapping his chin with his right hand.
Although she looks like a young girl, she moves like a noble woman. Such a childish but mature behavior has no charm at all, but it is a bit laughable.
She said slowly: "However, there is another option.
"As long as you do me a small favor, this book worth 80,000 white crown coins will be given to you, how about it?"
"——No need."
Aiwass said, lifting his suitcase, placing it on the table and opening it.
Inside were stacks of large silver bills with crossed scepters and swords, and a white crown in front. It is also called a Knight Bond. In the early days of the ancient Avalon nation, a certain amount of White Crown Coins could be used to allow a knight to serve him for a period of time, or to help him complete a task.
Under Hypatia's surprised gaze, Aiwass took a small pile from it: "There are a total of 250,000 in it. I will take 10,000 and there will be 240,000 to buy three books... Would you like some?"
"...No need."
Hybasa didn't even need to count the money. She could tell how much money was left at a glance.
She asked reluctantly: "Why don't you ask me what I asked you to do?"
Aiwass smiled gently and nodded: "Yes, I won't ask. Once you know something, it will be difficult to get out of it. It paid for a mission worth 80,000 white crown coins. The energy must be greater than the value of these 80,000 white crown coins. Compared with time, I am still richer."
"...You kid came prepared."
Hybasa closed the suitcase helplessly and accepted the money: "Forget it...that's fine, you are Gray's friends anyway. Just take whatever you like. These three cups of coffee are considered as gifts from me. ”
"Then you won't give me any more gifts?"
Aiwass asked with a smile: "In general stores, customers who pay large amounts must have something to match them. Even if they pay in installments, they have to give some gifts during the holidays, right... This is more than 200,000, how about you?" Want to add something more?”
He came here initially just to do an experiment.
In the game, the plot of Haibasha also requires 80,000, so Haibasha is also called Hai Bawan. Later, in the main plot of the Disaster Dragon, the player and Aiwass were saved by Hai Bawan's transformation into a queen... This can be regarded as a powerful NPC of the friendly army.
She is different from Vivian. Although she has been reincarnated, she is still on the path of wisdom. Therefore, she has not lost much power.
——Her reincarnation is closer to reconstruction. She broke away from the hands of the Geometry Heavenly Master and planned to become a Heavenly Master by her own strength. It is very similar to the trajectory of the Silver Crown Dragon in the past.
She asked for 80,000 when she opened her mouth. If you can't give it, you have to help her run a very troublesome long-term task-and of course, the player can't give it.
Because the upper limit of the player's backpack is only 9999 White Crown Coins, it is impossible to give 80,000. In other words, this is actually similar to the bicycle task of Pokémon. The price is unaffordable from the beginning, and you can only go through the task.
Strictly speaking, Haibasha's task is an anniversary task.
You can choose a total of three secret books from her. All the limited secret books that have appeared in the pool and have not entered the pool within two months can be selected. This is an anniversary event starting from the third year. Every anniversary will have an extra book in stock. It is equivalent to getting a secret book of the highest rarity for free.
The second and third books will be given extra gifts for the excuses of "accumulated consumption of 100,000" and "accumulated consumption of 200,000" respectively - it's the same, because players can't pay at all. So in name it is accumulated consumption, but in fact it is a reputation reward.
Aiwass was too lazy to run the long-term mission that required running back and forth between several countries, so he planned to take the money and try it out.
He brought so much money mainly to give Haibasha 80,000 to try it out.
In the end, she really accepted it.
"...Okay."
Haibasha sighed, looking somewhat helpless: "But I can only sell these three books. If you want to come again, you have to help me complete some things... To be honest, I am not that short of money, but I am short of people to run errands. I am not a greedy person. I just asked you for 80,000, just to stop you. I didn't expect..."
I didn't expect that he could really afford it.
She glanced at Aiwass, then at Lily.
Is it the guidance of the "prophet"... No, it doesn't seem to be her. She seems to be the successor of Gray Sky Master...
"As for gifts, I plan to give you two. Let's call it a cumulative consumption reward of 100,000 White Crown Coins and 200,000 White Crown Coins. For the 100,000 reward, I can give you a rare mystical book that is not a secret book; for the 200,000, I can give you a piece of equipment."
Hai Baxia thought: "But I don't have a lot of collections here... Should I make a list for you? Or do you want some recommendations?"
"Give her a weapon."
Ewas pointed at Lily: "You decide. As for the books... Can I pick them myself?"
"Well. You can take any without the suffix 'Secret'. Or you can ask them when the time comes... Take one, and you can come back to read the rest anytime you want. Books other than secret books don't seem to be that time-consuming."
Hai Baxia nodded.
The implication is that she admitted that the secret books she stored here are actually a gimmick.
There are indeed things, but they are mainly for you to show off, not really intended to lend them to you. But the lower-end ones can be shared - generally speaking, this is what she thinks.
"Thank you for your help."
Aivas replied respectfully.
Then, he drank the hallucinogenic coffee without hesitation.
