Fatal Shot

Chapter 405: “Concubine” Xiao Luo Shui

“Elite Grade, do Life Protozoa also have Grade differentiation?” Xiao Chen’s face of curiosity intensified.

“They naturally do. Like pets, Life Protozoa are categorized into the five Grades: Normal, Elite, Commander, quasi-boss and boss. Normal Life Protozoa only increase Life Points, and their attribute enhancement is not high, Elite-Grade Life Protozoa are also able to additionally increase one attribute other than Life Points. Commander-Grade Life Protozoa are able to additionally increase one to two attributes on top of this basis, and their enhancement is high. As for the quasi-boss and boss, the officials did not give out any information at all. But looking at all the information given by the officials, it can be said that the difficulty of obtaining Commander-Grade Life Protozoa is no less difficult than the Commander-Grade pets you have here, but even harder.” Xiao Luo Shui said, revealing a faint smile.

“However, personally speaking, I actually like pets more. After all, Life Protozoa as microorganisms cannot be like pets which have various special combat powers and appearances. In coming to the 17th Administrative Planet to take charge of our family’s business in War, I can also start playing the game again here.”

“Cousin Luo Shui, I’m relieved if you like pets, our Xiao family-invested Starry Sky Company is the top equipment intermediary and auction company in War. I’ve just let them prepare for you 10 high-grade Pet Chips capable of contracting Commander-Grade creatures, suitable for all sorts of pets. You just have to reach Level 20 and above and you will get a definitely satisfactory Commander-Grade pet.” Xiao Chen said with a smile, looking satisfied.

“10 Commander-Grade Chips?” Xiao Luo Shui asked, hearing this news made her forehead crease.

“I’ve checked it out just now, with the current price in the game, a Commander-Grade Pet Chip is currently auctioned at around 30,000,000 credits. Last night, there was a huge number of players who joined the rebellion camp, looking at the news released on the forum that there is a way to activate missions in which high-grade Pet Chips can be earned after joining the rebellion camp. Although it’s difficult, with just a rise in the number of people, the production of high-grade Chips would definitely increase. According to the fastest novice progress on the forum, I would need at least 11 and a half days to be able to reach Level 20. With this situation, after 11 days these Chips would very likely be depreciated by more than half. Cousin Chen, I suggest you quickly let go of these high-grade Chips, you have a 99% chance of suffering a loss. In contrast, once I get to Level 20 and purchase a high-grade Pet Chip based on a pet type of my liking, it would be more worth it.” Said Xiao Luo Shui.

The smile on Xiao Shao’s face hardened, his hand originally sending the glass of red wine to his mouth stopped as well, then he smiled sheepishly.

“Cousin Luo Shui, you’re right, I shall now let them sell off these Pet Chips quick at the soonest auction then.”

“Cousin Chen, your words have also reminded me. Since Huan Yu is able to turn their originally disadvantageous fate around by auctioning the first Legendary equipment and the subsequent permanent Enhancement Potions, then we Starry Sky can also use the same method to hype it up. Please make arrangements, if whoever is able to produce Boss-Grade Pet Chips, we Starry Sky shall purchase it at a high price.” Xiao Luo Shui, with a look of deep thought, was a bit ignorant to Xiao Chen’s look of awkwardness.

“What about the price?” Xiao Chen put down his glass and asked. action

“I’ve seen that Huan Yu’s first Legendary equipment auctioned previously was dealt at 9.9999 billion credits, but clearly it should have been because of the hype. However, we shall fix the price of a Boss-Chip at 50 billion credits, 50 billion credits fixed. War’s first Boss-Grade pet should be worth this price.”

Xiao Luo Shui said smoothly. “50 billion?”

This number had made Xiao Shao’s face change. To the Xiao family, a price of 50 billion credits or five billion Star Coins was not considered a lot, he could take it out effortlessly.

The key was that it was just for a virtual tool in the game, furthermore a tool without a definite 100% success rate, giving up this price was too astounding.

“Cousin Chen, this game has its investment value. Since I am now in charge of our family’s business in War, as long as the involved sum doesn’t exceed 100 billion, I would have the right to transfer directly.” Xiao Shui Luo said flatly, and the screen which was initially on the forum page had already switched to an image which looked like a statistical report.

“There are still a few more things that need to be done soon. From the data you have gathered for me, the Huan Yu Company is snatching away a huge number of our customers now is, to a certain extent, related to their continuous supply of permanent Enhancement Potions and mass-produced Rare equipment. Regarding the permanent Enhancement Potions, I feel that we should take it seriously, we must know that in our server...mm, I’ll talk to you in detail about this later... Who is that player who manufactures Rare equipment? Could we cooperate with him, take the source of the so-called Eye of the Thunder equipment from the hands of Huan Yu, or think of a way to cut off their Rare-Grade raw materials used to manufacture the equipment.” Xiao Luo Shui thought hard as she spoke.

Xiao Chen had not thought that this chat, which was initially one between relatives, had been changed to the family’s business by his cousin after just a few words.

He was originally in-charge of some portions of the family business, but recently, he had spent much time and money on women and his role in the game was normally having his assistant settle things with him only responsible for signing.

He now rolled his eyes, speaking composedly. “This isn’t very good. That permanent Enhancement Potion was created by a master NPC, although we’ve found that it seems related to a player, to search up his specific ID is very difficult. Besides, that firearms expert who creates sniper rifles hasn’t been found yet. But among some firearms experts cooperating with us, there is already someone who will be producing a Perfect-evaluated Rare weapon soon, if only they can create...”

“Didn’t you all directly let the Hounds help?” Xiao Luo Shui raised her head and looked towards him.

“The Hounds?” Xiao Chen’s face froze, after which a slight annoyance appeared in his eyes.

Speaking of the Hounds, made him feel a little angry.

The last time in the Agent Advancement mission, despite all sorts of promises made before, he had been kicked out by an NPC in the end. The Hounds rejected refunding everyone the commission, only agreeing to provide them a new Hidden Profession Mission free-of-charge.

To him, that portion of money was actually a small matter, the important thing that angered him much more than 20,000,000 was that he had lost his pride in front of his friends.

“Cousin Chen, I think that we should make a good relationship with the Hounds, and build a long-term cooperative relationship. You should know that such an intelligence organization is extremely important to any power. Plus, the Hounds’ background isn’t simple...” Xiao Luo Shui glanced at him as she spoke, as if her eyes were looking through him, like she had seen something from Xiao Chen’s eyes.

“But to rely on others isn’t a long-term solution. If there’s a chance, we should build up our own intelligence organization; we already have auctions spread over various major cities and a huge number of VIP players gathered previously, it wouldn’t be very troublesome to start an organization.” Xiao Chen argued.

“Well...because the entrepreneurial team is unwilling to continue receiving funds and compete with some financial groups, we Xiaos have not achieved a definite controlling power in Starry Sky Company. Therefore, we still need to go through the discussion on the Starry Sky Company Board of Directors meeting before we can decide on these things.” Xiao Luo Shui said, looking back at the screen again when she finished speaking.

Some sweat appeared on Xiao Chen’s forehead, feeling much pressure from this cousin of his. “Let’s act according to plan first, we’ll definitely have the controlling power in no time.”

“Mm, good.” Xiao Luo Shui answered and lowered her head to continue checking on all sorts of news gathered on the screen, ending their conversation.

Xiao Chen paused for two seconds before nodding and walking out.

Although he was the “older cousin”, he was actually an assisting older cousin.

In this huge matter in the Xiao Conglomerate, Xiao Shao’s position in the 17th Administrative Planet was too large a gap from that of the owners in the Capital Planet.

This woman was not only the second in-line to the heir of the Xiao family but also had a title of “emperor’s concubine” within the family. The emperor’s concubine, Xiao Luo Shui.

She was the “emperor’s concubine” as other than her position within the family, this woman, ravishing in both appearance and temperament, was also the “fiancé” of the first heir to another big family.

“Fiancé” was not accurate either, as this name was only a joke made between the two.

A joke that was said by a family star-of-tomorrow, raised by a currently important family in the Star Federation political scene, during the first time he had met Xiao Luo Shui when he was young.

But towards this joke, many people in the family were really set on it.
