Chapter 148: Race Track-1
"Two Tier-3 legendary grade items for two."
Rin and Erix were startled.
'There's no way they would accept this trade.'
'Yeah.'
Indeed, the black wolf-man's eyes widened before he grunted with a severe expression.
"Impossible! Are you serious?"
Melissa curled her lips into a provocative smile as she replied, "Then what do you suggest?"
The four wolf beastfolks looked at each other. All of them had unlocked Spirit Sense, so they conversed via thought messages.
'Let's just attack them, boss. Tier-4 legendary? We only have one item of that rank!' the short-tempered one immediately shouted.
'I'll make the proposal that won't end in loss if we reach the top 100,' the black wolf woman said.
"One Tier-3 legendary grade items and two Tier-3 epic grade weapons for four Golden statues."
Melissa chuckled. "It looks like you have some boxes saved from events."
The four wolf beastfolk were unnerved hearing her as Melissa was right.
They had unopened reward boxes of Tier-3 grade. All people would have it and hoard it for various trades or when their current items get destroyed.
"One Tier-3 legendary grade bladed weapon, One Tier-4 Epic grade weapon, and two Tier-3 Epic grade one-time use items for four golden statues."
"We don't have Tier-4 weapons!" the brown wolf-man roared.
"Calm down, I am joking," Melissa rolled her eyes. "This guy is really an idiot. Replace that Tier-4 epic grade weapon with a Tier-3 legendary grade or any other item."
"You!"
After all, Tier-4 weapons were fundamentally different, with their method of creation evolving into the next realm, which only allowed Royal-order powerhouses to use their full powers. So, it was a waste for a Noble-order powerhouse to have a Tier-4 weapon of any grade.
The beastfolk discussed for half a minute before the black wolf-man nodded. "Alright, we accept your condition."
"I have a Tier-3 legendary bladed weapon of Wind attribute, so take it first," the white-wolf woman took out a longsword with emerald and green patterns on its sleek dark green crystal blade and threw it towards Melissa.
Melissa grabbed it and handed it to Rin.
The beastfolk were speechless before they wryly smiled.
"You guys are cheating."
"Nah, it means you have a skill Issue in our world's terms," Erix laughed.
...
After selling three golden statues for three Tier-3 Legendary items, one being a bladed weapon for Rin so that her Blade Eater can finally evolve, the group flew towards the race track five kilometers above the island.
"Erix, Melissa. Do you think Lex and others with him are waiting for us there?" Rin asked with hesitation.
"From how he chased us like a rabid dog, I don't think he wants to let us go that easily," Erix sneered.
"Yep. That bastard should be waiting for us on the race track. He had more people by his side, so we'll have to pass through them quickly."
Melissa nodded. "We've beaten him thrice and left him in dust, so he won't take this lying down."
"It's fine," the black wolf-man said. "We'll be fine as long as we remain careful because the landscape changes physically often in sections, so they won't be able to put traps for us there."
"Lara has a specialty in detection."
'Yeah. Her nose is sharp,' Erix said. 'She detected me twice, and I had to change places.'
"I'll defend you both and help Lara evade, so focus on detecting enemies and their attacks," Melissa said before she turned to Erix. "Erix, you can probably detect better than her with your space mapping, but you have to stay cautious. Lex will mainly focus on you and me."
The group discussed a bit before they arrived at the Race Track.
So far, 43 people have passed, meaning many with golden wings were still within the race track and outside below.
"Get ready," Melissa said. She used her signature skill thrice, the Tenebrian Wooden Maw Shield.
One defending Erix, one the wolf-woman, and the other herself.
Rin stayed close to Erix, so she was also safe, as her job was to support Erix and let him use his teleport and wormholes to aid and defend.
Erix also had another thing in mind, but it was experimental, so he didn't mention it to anyone.
The group arrived at the Race Track and stopped for a second.
The scenery inside was of mountain areas but it changed again.
"Stick together, and be careful!"
