Chapter 349: Chapter 204: Believe in the Strength of Hope Village

Zhou Bai wasn’t previously aware of what Lucas and the others had harvested and didn’t plan to ask, since it was their own gain.

However, from the conversations he just overheard, the haul seemed quite significant and pricey. fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm

Only after seeing the items they laid out did Zhou Bai realize he was literally dazzled.

At that moment, Zhou Bai finally understood why the Mercenary Team Captain had hired a Beast Tamer to send a Demon Beast to track them after leaving.

The grudge had indeed deepened.

Fortunately, the Mercenary Team Captains were not robbed; otherwise, given the valuable items they had, it would have been a relentless situation.

And upon Zhou Bai’s arrival, O’Neill immediately took notice.

"Village Chief, you’re here. If you like anything, I’ll sell it to you for cheap!" O’Neill hastily said.

If possible, he would have preferred to gift them to Zhou Bai! But knowing that the recipient would not want that, he opted for selling them cheap.

"Sure," Zhou Bai responded, starting to browse through the dazzling array of items.

After all, who could have too many good pieces of equipment!

Zhou Bai was now more concerned with defensive equipment.

After searching, he indeed found the equipment he needed.

A Golden Cloak.

The name was simple, but its use was not—all applying a temporary increase of 200 Defense and 1,000 Life Force, as well as enhancing his damage within a certain range.

Currently facing higher-level Demon Beasts, enduring a prolonged battle was not an issue for him. However, since the Demon Beasts had higher Attack, he needed to be more careful each time.

With this high-enhancement equipment, he could definitely be more at ease.

"This one," Zhou Bai said.

"Village Chief, just give...2...1 gold coin is fine," O’Neill eagerly replied.

"Isn’t that a bit too cheap?" Zhou Bai couldn’t help but chuckle; one gold coin for Golden Equipment was practically giving it away.

"That’s enough, that’s enough," O’Neill quickly said.

"Make it cheap, 10 gold coins then! Consider it me taking advantage of you," Zhou Bai said, handing O’Neill 10 gold coins.

O’Neill was stunned for a moment and wanted to call out again, but Zhou Bai had already taken the equipment and left.

Watching his departing figure, O’Neill pursed his lips.

Lucas noticed the scene unfolding here and said directly, "The Village Chief is just like that. The best help we can offer is to work conscientiously."

With such a Lord, they felt even more optimistic that life in Hope Village would only get better.

"Right," O’Neill nodded.

Then, a few Professionals who had witnessed the scene plucked up their courage and said, "O’Neill, if you want to sell cheap, sell to me. You name the price and I won’t haggle."

"Get lost, don’t take advantage of me. We didn’t get these equipment easily," O’Neill immediately waved his hand.

"How did you get them? Where did you get them?" someone perked up, curiously asking.

"Is that something you should ask?" O’Neill replied, "Are you buying or not? If not, make way."

"Okay, okay, won’t ask. But you all really struck it rich!" It must’ve been that group of Beastmen who robbed some team, but judging from the level of the equipment, those who got robbed were not something they could handle.

This was followed by a lively haggling scene which even turned into a bidding war upon encountering some rare items.

There was certainly no shortage of wealthy folks in the territory now.

And thus, their inventory of equipment and various Magic Items was fast depleting.

Meanwhile, Beck and Anna had already sorted out their homes according to family allocations.

Fortunately, the mercenaries had been too hasty to confiscate their items and copper coins, so most Sheep-headed Men were still able to afford the rent.

They were more concerned about their future days in Hope Village.

Thus, after settling down, Dean, leading the Sheep-headed Men, along with Glen and a group of Fox Beastmen, approached Beck to inquire about the situation in Hope Village.

They all knew that the truth would be more accurate coming from Beck’s mouth.

Or rather, they needed someone more credible to confirm the goodness of Hope Village to dispel their last reservations.

"How are you finding it here?" Dean asked Beck.

"I was summoned here while collecting seeds outside because the contract can be canceled anytime, so I agreed. After that, I’ve been doing quite well here..." Beck said, scratching his head sheepishly, "Grandpa, don’t worry, it’s really good here. I’ve even taken on many apprentices! Now, I’m mainly responsible for this stretch of farmland and the Village Chief has even invited me to be a teacher at the school."
