“What the f*ck? Someone actually sent such an invitation? Aren’t they afraid of getting beaten up?”
Cole scratched his head and looked at the 20 B1 Battle Droids that were hibernating in his manor.
“My B1 Battle Droids should be able to fight against 100 humans… Let’s ask the others if they received such an invitation first.”
Entering the World Channel again, Cole started to type.
“Do any of you know about the Black-Iron Alliance?”
“Big Brother Constantine! Black-Iron Alliance? It’s an organization that has appeared recently.”
“It seems that many people have formed small alliances recently. I didn’t expect Big Brother to receive an invitation from these organizations so quickly.”
“I also received an invitation from the Black-Iron Alliance. To be honest, I don’t like their message.”
“What message?”
“They just say that they hope you can join the Black-Iron Alliance. Don’t be ungrateful. These are their original words.”
“What the f*ck? Are they so fierce?”
“Hey, hey, why are they so arrogant? Just because they have more people?”
“They seem to have some special abilities or something. Anyway, everyone, be careful not to be targeted by them.”
“Then, does Big Brother Constantine want to join?”
Cole shook his head. He did not want to go to the Iron-Black Alliance. If he joined casually, his talent might be discovered and he might be used as a tool to plant Divine Fruit Trees. He did not want to become like that.
Following that, Cole rejected the invitation to be a good friend of the Iron-Black Alliance. He woke up the 20 B1 Battle Droids that were curled up and resting.
“There might be people invading the manor in the coming period of time. The few of you need to patrol. Don’t slack off.”
“Roger roger.”
The 20 B1 Battle Droids moved quickly. The 10 of them were patrolling the manor in groups of 10 with blaster guns.
“The B1 Battle Droids are quite strong. If there really is an attack, they should be able to resist for a period of time.”
Cole panted slightly, lay on the wooden bed, and closed his eyes.
His consciousness returned to the doppelganger, and the doppelganger opened his eyes. At this time, Ceci had not returned from Priest Hill’s place.
“I don’t know how much time has passed, but I have to buy a clock here.”
The doppelganger slowly got up, put the Earth Crystal into his pocket, and walked down the stairs.
When he went down to the first floor, there were already many people gathered at the entrance of the store. Ten B1 Battle Droids were maintaining order at the entrance of the store.
“What happened?”
A B1 Battle Droid turned around and saw its commander. It immediately said, “Commander, they seem to be here to thank you. We can’t stop them.”
“Then don’t stop them.”
Cole walked out of the store with a smile on his face. He looked at the crowd surrounding him and didn’t feel any fear at all.
Suddenly, an old man knelt on the ground.
“Lord Mage! Thank you for saving my child’s life!”
As the old man knelt down, more people also knelt down. People thanked Cole for saving their loved ones’ lives. This made him a little at a loss.
He organized his thoughts and began to speak.
“Everyone, there’s no need to thank me. Go and thank the City Lord. I was commissioned by the City Lord to produce the antidote together with Priest Hill. I’m only a mage. There’s no need to thank me too much.”
After saying that, Cole saw Ceci and Priest Hill standing outside the crowd.
“Are you happy to see me embarrass myself? You didn’t even come to help me?”
Back on the second floor, the doppelganger sat on the bed and looked at Ceci. Ceci scratched his head.
“There are three circles in the crowd and three circles outside the shop. We can’t get in at all.”
“Okay, okay, okay. Keep talking nonsense. Priest Hill, may I ask why you’re here?”
The doppelganger looked at Priest Hill. Priest Hill was stunned for a moment and took out an Earth Crystal.
“I heard from Mr. Ceci that you have many Earth Crystals?”
The doppelganger made an international friendly gesture to Ceci and nodded.
“We do have many Earth Crystals, but we want to sell them as commodities.”
“The market price of one Earth Crystal is about three gold coins. One gold coin can be exchanged for 1,000 copper coins and 100 silver coins.”
“I didn’t expect it to be so expensive. I thought it was very cheap. We only have a bag of Earth Crystals, about 20 of them. I’ll sell one to you for one gold coin. Is that sincere enough?”
Hill was stunned for a moment and quickly nodded. Although the city she was in was not very rich, more than twenty gold coins could still be taken out.
“Then, let’s make the transaction.”
“Uh… I don’t have so much money on me right now. Please wait for me for a moment, I will bring the money over immediately.”
“No problem, I will wait for you, Priest.”
Only after Priest Hill left did Ceci dare to speak.
“Boss, we clearly have a lot of Earth Crystals. Why don’t we sell all of them?”
“The rarer the item, the more valuable it is. If we put too many things out, it will disturb the market and cause us to make less money. I’ll give you a gold coin. You go around the surrounding markets and see if there is anything suitable for you. Buy it, and use the rest of the money to see if you can buy a few wooden cabinets.”
The doppelganger gave a gold coin to Ceci. Ceci happily accepted it, but he was puzzled again.
“Boss, we can’t stay here for nothing. We still have to go back to the manor to cultivate the Divine Tree. But the store can’t be empty. What should we do?”
“Don’t worry. I’ve already thought of what to do. We can go back after staying here for another two days.”
“Boss, what’s your plan? Can you tell me about it?”
“I can plant food and fruits. Then, we can transport the fruits over and sell them in the store. We have to take root here. The Watchtower is just a stronghold. Only by gaining a place in the city can we be considered to have a firm foothold in this world.”
Hearing the words of the doppelganger, Ceci nodded.
“Anyway, you’re the boss. Whatever you say. I’ll go shopping first!”
As Ceci said that, he took the gold coin and ran out of the shop happily. The doppelganger looked at the silly Ceci and shook his head slightly. He lay down on the bed and moved his consciousness out of the doppelganger.
“Uh… I’m a little dizzy.”
Cole sat up straight from the wooden bed and touched his forehead. His spiritual power was a little hard to pull in and out twice.
“Sure enough, I have to upgrade my cultivation level as soon as possible. I have to finish the plan first.”
After returning to the Trading Mall, Cole searched for a long time before he found a fruit that was sold food. Moreover, the starting price was fifty Energy Fruits.
“Oh, it’s great to have different fruits. When my Divine Tree grows more and more special fruits, I will sell them at a sky-high price!”
