Lin and Fatty darted through the crowd like two eels, trying to avoid Lu Liang's search. Lin could vaguely hear him calling his name from behind.
"Bro, you hear that? That guy is still looking for you!"
Fatty listened for a moment, then patted Lin on the shoulder.
"Let's go!"
Lin shivered; he didn't want to continue interacting with Lu Liang. That guy always looked at him in a strange way... What if he was into guys?
Thinking this made Lin feel a chill run down his spine. He didn't dare to think further and pulled Fatty as they sprinted toward the other side of the square.
Half an hour later, Lin wiped the sweat from his forehead as he stood in the South Square of the Warrior Exchange, finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Behind him, Fatty was panting heavily. With the midday sun beating down harder, they had crossed the entire square in this heat, nearly exhausting Fatty.
"Damn it... Yo-yo... We ran from one end of the exchange to the other; he should have lost track of us by now, right?"
After wiping off his sweat, Lin grumbled. He glanced back uneasily but saw no sign of Lu Liang and his group, which eased his worries.
"Don't... don't look back, bro... I'm going to... die from the heat... hurry, let's get inside..."
Fatty was already exhausted, draping his arms over Lin's shoulders, barely hanging on like a koala. He looked like he could hardly stand.
"Alright, alright, it's not that bad. Let's go inside!"
With some pulling and dragging, Lin finally got Fatty into the Warrior Exchange.
The two entered a massive building that resembled a shopping mall.
This building looked quite unique; compared to the surrounding skyscrapers, it stood out as a breath of fresh air. The entire structure was only one story tall but covered a large area. Upon seeing this building, Old Lin was reminded of a large train station.
The Warrior Exchange, as a gathering place for warriors from various regions, held significant importance. In every city, there are Warrior Exchanges of different forms, but they all share a common trait: they occupy a vast area.
This is because the Warrior Exchange serves many guests at any given time.
Although it is an exchange, its functions extend beyond mere transactions. Evaluations of warriors, skill exchanges, trading of items among warriors, and task transactions all take place in this location.
The Warrior Exchange is equipped with the most advanced Star Sea Trading System. Each Warrior Exchange essentially serves as a home for warriors.
It also has a very special function; when large-scale wars break out, the Warrior Exchange will become the last bastion and defensive line for people. It is like a large iron fortress.
...
With so many functions, there are naturally many functional areas. For example, the area where Lin Ta and others were located was the Trading Area.
A huge data sign hung from the ceiling, flashing three green characters: "Trading Area."
The Trading Area was divided into two main sections. On one side was the long queue at the Counter Area, which served as the Manual Service Area for handling more special or higher-value items.
Each reception desk had long lines of various Interstellar Warriors waiting with Number Tags in hand, anticipating their turn to be called based on their displayed Number Tag.
The other section had significantly fewer people. The entire area was divided into four-square-meter cubicles separated by partitions, each equipped with swivel chairs and Virtual Screens. This was the Self-Service Area.
The Self-Service Area dealt with more ordinary items; non-rare goods were sold here at standard prices to the Warrior Exchange, making it an economical zone.
This area seemed to be despised by people, with few coming here to buy or sell things, mostly Warrior Apprentices or low-level fighters.
Lin Ta and Fatty were sitting in this area, with Fatty enjoying the cool air from the air conditioning, constantly emitting suggestive low murmurs that made him appear quite sleazy.
"Bro, what did you get?"
After enjoying the cool breeze for a while, Fatty turned around and shouted at Lin, who was sitting across the aisle.
At that moment, Lin was in front of a self-service terminal, staring at a blue virtual Virtual Screen, where the text flickered and changed continuously.
Lin didn't respond; he was focused on the screen, seemingly waiting for something. He was so engrossed that he didn't hear Fatty calling him.
Seeing that Lin wasn't talking, Fatty stopped asking questions. He lightly jumped down from his swivel chair and walked over to Lin's side.
Stretching his neck to look forward, Fatty caught a glimpse of a line of text flashing on the screen: "Please wait, System is estimating item Price..."
On Lin's left side, a bottle was enveloped in blue light, which formed a net-like pattern that swept from top to bottom continuously.
"Detailed identification failed; this item exceeds the System recognition range."
"Preliminary identification as an advanced civilization item, potion type, valued over 5 million. Please proceed to the manual service desk for specific valuation."
Seeing this line of text pop up on the screen, Lin furrowed his brows. He glanced over at the Manual Service Area, where a long queue seemed to stretch indefinitely.
"Damn! Five million? Bro, what did you buy? Is it Thai miracle oil?"
Fatty widened his eyes and made some irrelevant comments that only added to Lin's annoyance.
"Go away, stop messing around. This is a potion used by warriors, and it can sell for a high price..."
Lin waved his hand to shoo Fatty away, then stood up and gazed towards the Manual Service Area. He was currently thinking about how to resolve the issue quickly; he didn't want to waste any time here.
"Bro, don't rush off just yet. Let me see how much my treasure is worth."
Fatty sat down in front of the self-service terminal and placed his yellow Crystal on it. The machine responded quite quickly this time, and within just over ten seconds, the result appeared.
"Crystal Art Piece, crafted by the master Prulsmann Harlan from Energy Star. It is a popular collectible on the market, with a current market price of 650,000."
Below that were several options: self-auction, direct sale, listing for sale, and many other modes.
In summary, selling items through the Warrior Exchange is divided into two main categories. One is direct trading, where you sell to anyone at a fixed price, allowing for immediate sales.
The second type is long-term listing, whether for sale or auction, aimed at maximizing the item's value and earning more profit for the owner.
However, this method takes a considerable amount of time; it could take months before an item sells at a high price.
Given Lin Ta's current situation, they didn't have much time to list or auction items because they were pressed for time and in urgent need of money; they had to sell their items immediately.
"650,000? That's not bad... Let's sell it then!"
Fatty muttered a couple of times and casually clicked on direct sale.
Direct sale means selling the item to the Warrior Exchange. Fatty's item was enveloped in red light as a warning popped up on the screen:
"Please do not enter the red light transmission area; item is being recycled."
For about ten seconds, the Yellow Crystal Stone disappeared with a whoosh in the red light, leaving Fatty astonished.
This was the spatial transmission technology derived from advanced science. Fatty had only heard about it before; this was the first time he had witnessed it in person.
Soon after, Fatty's account showed an increase of 650,000 Interstellar Coins. Seeing that money, Fatty's face lit up with joy, his chubby cheeks shaking with excitement.
"Bro! We are rich now!"
Fatty picked up his Identity Card and turned around excitedly, but his smile froze as he was struck by surprise.
At some point, a beautiful woman in professional attire had appeared behind him, engaged in conversation with Lin.
What was going on? How did his brother manage to attract such a stunning beauty in the blink of an eye?
Fatty looked at the Blonde Beauty, filled with questions.
The Blonde Beauty wore a standard service smile, addressing Lin politely and humbly, her voice as sweet as a nightingale.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Lin?"
