Chapter 242 Earning 100 Trillion
Exiting the shop under the apologetic gesture of Kijin.
Maximus reached a valley and donned a disguise.
His objective this time was to purchase more abyssal sources.
He couldn't obtain a higher-tier abyssal source, so he decided to buy a larger quantity.
A Tier 6 abyssal source could yield him over a million system points daily.
After acquiring one hundred of them, it will also equated to a normal quality Tier 7 abyssal source.
Maximus didn't bother with lower-tier Abyss Sources.
He wasn't being lazy but rather trying to avoid causing too much disturbance in the market.
...
While Maximus scoured the market for abyssal sources, Skye was also shopping.
Unlike Maximus, Skye shopped without any specific motive, indulging in clothes, food, and various accessories.
She spent millions of crystal merits each time she made a stop.
Unwittingly, she exhausted a few hundred million crystal merits without realizing it.
"Uh~" Skye sighed as she looked at her empty storage ring.
"It's too little," she couldn't help but complain.
Maximus had influenced her spending habits, skewing her concept of money.
She realized she had just spent three months' worth of?hard work in just a few hours.
"This is the fault of that bastard," Skye internally reasoned.
However, she suddenly thought that after returning from the annual exchange event,
Maximus would help her purify the crystal merits she had condensed.
This would likely boost her monthly income to billions.
"Hehe, then let me borrow some money first," Skye thought, sending a message to Maximus.
Wireless connections were available in Purgatory City, allowing the message to go through easily.
However, in outposts and the wilderness of the abyss, such wireless connections were not accessible.
The chaotic abyssal energy in the surroundings blocked spiritual consciousness, wireless signals, and any form of connection.
Achieving freedom of network connection required a large apparatus filled with dense Tier 9 arrays.
This method of communication was only available in top guilds and organizations.
...
After a while, In the residence rented by Maximus for a few days.
Skye was waiting for Maximus.
"Maximus!" Skye said excitedly, jumping into his arms.
"Oh~ What do you need?" Maximus asks knowingly.
Maximus didn't know where she learned it.
But every time Skye needed anything, she would act coquettish.
"Money~"
"This little girl is too poor to buy her food and clothing~."
"Would this mister pity me?~" She said seductively.
"Hehe, It depends if you are obedient," Maximus joined in the play and asked vaguely.
"Hmph! Mister is a pervert!"
"This is how the market goes, little girl; if you want money, you must pay for it."
"Hmph! Bad little mister!" Skye broke the hug.
Although she liked Maximus, she was still not ready for such a thing.
"What are you thinking?"
"I'm just asking for a massage," Maximus explained.
Of course, not even a fool would believe what he said.
"Oh~ My fee is very expensive. Can you afford it, little mister?" Skye said as she stretched her hand.
"Is a billion an hour enough?" Maximus said nonchalantly.
"A b-billion an hour?" Skye was speechless.
A billion an hour?
Is that what a human can say?
She worked her ass for three months without any rest and barely earned a few hundred million.
Now you're telling me you can earn that in just an hour doing prostitution?
Hey, life is really impermanence and unfair.
"Hurry up; I still have work to do," Maximus urged, seeing Skye in a daze.
Before Skye called him.
He had already bought over 300 abyss sources, scouring all the shops in Purgatory City.
This cost him over 3 trillion, causing a dent in his wallet.
If he didn't want to flood the market with abyss resources all of a sudden.
Maximus would have paid using Abyss resources.
Unfortunately, there was already little movement when he sold 100 trillion worth of resources.
He underestimated the sense of smell of the people here.
Even a hundred trillion can cause a slight disturbance.
Fortunately, it was only a little commotion; only a few ordinary people cared.
Seeing there was more rare abyss material for sale, they couldn't help but doubt if there was an abyss tide somewhere.
Soon, Skye massaged him, excitedly thinking of how she would spend the money.
Although a billion had meant nothing to her in her previous life,
Now, she was still a weakling; it was already a lot.
Skye thought money was easy to earn with some rich guy by your side.
...
An hour later.
"Huh~ Comfortable," Maximus stretched his body.
"It seems that you have a talent for being a masseuse; my money is worth it," Maximus praised.
"Oh~ Come give me the money."
"Sweet words wouldn't work," Skye said, thinking Maximus would default her pay.
"Alright, Alright." Maximus shook his head helplessly and gave money.
After receiving the money, Skye became energetic.
Such easy money!
She thought that if she massaged Maximus 24 hours per day in a month.
She would easily earn over half a trillion!
This is already half the money an average Tier 7 individual would need to be promoted to Tier 8.
"By the way, what work are you going to do?" Skye asked, remembering what Maximus had said earlier.
"It's the auction tonight."
"Do you want to join me?"
"Then I would gladly join you," Skye smiled and suddenly remembered that there was still this event.
She was still wondering what to spend the billion he just earned.
Now, there is a ready-made place.
After dressing up, Skye looked excitedly at Maximus.
However, what she saw was a different man.
"What happened? Are you in disguise?" Skye asked doubtfully.
"That's right." Maximus nodded, changing back to his original appearance.
"Are you going to rob the auction?" Skye asked jokingly.
"No, I might spend a lot tonight; having a disguise is better."
"Here, it's for you."
"Huh? A Tier 9 mask of disguise?"
"You're really rich; you can still get something like this," Skye said with admiration as she wore the mask.
"Is this face fine?" Changing to a multitude of beauties, Skye asked for Maximus' opinion.
"It's fine."
"How about this?"
"It's good."
"How about this?"
"It's good."
"How about this?"
"It's good."
"How-"
"It's all good; just choose a disguise."
"No face would be as beautiful as yours, so don't make it hard for yourself," Maximus said, stopping Skye.
If she continues, they will be late for the auction.
"Oh~ how can a mere disguise match me?"
"You still dare to entertain this thought, mister? How dare you!" Skye said like a fickle.
But in her heart, she is happy to be praised inadvertently.
Looking at Skye's curled-up smile, Maximus can only sigh.
"Women are really troublesome creatures..."
...
At night, Etherium Abyss Council Auction Hall:
Walking through the entrance, they were greeted by a steward.
"Hello, sir, ma'am. May I have your invitation card?"
"Here," Maximus said, taking out a golden card.
Earlier, after he learned from Kijin about the auction, he immediately applied for one.
Fortunately, it was pretty easy; you just need to show a little of your assets.
"Supreme VIP?!" The steward was a little shocked.
One of the managers on the side heard it and hurriedly came forward.
"Please follow me, my lord; I will take you to your suite."
Being a Supreme VIP means at least a hundred trillion in assets.
Such a big shot made the steward a little nervous.
Fortunately, his manager hurriedly came forward.
Soon, the manager guided them to suite no. 3.
Suites no. 1-10 are for supreme VIPs.
Apparently, there was already two supreme VIP ahead of him.
Inside was a luxurious room, fitting the status of Supreme VIP's.
"Is there anything you need, my lord?" The manager asks, after sending them in.
"Don't bother," Maximus waved his hand.
"Then please just call if there is anything." The manager bowed and exited the room.
"Supreme VIP? Did you rob some rich boss or something?" Skye asked immediately, seeing that there was no one around.
She also knew the conditions for getting a Supreme VIP invitation card.
But as far as she knew, Maximus didn't have that kind of money.
Thus, she wondered if Maximus had robbed someone and would like to join.
Earning a hundred trillion at once is very exciting just thinking about it.
"Stupid~" Maximus flicked her forehead.
"Who can be as rich as me, carrying so much money with such puny strength?"
Maximus wouldn't dare to show that he had such money if not for the special rules of Etherium Abyss Auction.
That is, you can freely disguise yourself.
The auction hall is filled with a dense array that prevents all kinds of detection.
Even a Tier 9 apex sovereign would be noticed once they tried to investigate someone.
Thus, people could confidently spend money here without being known.
This rule was specially implemented because, previously, auction winners were ambushed and died.
This chaos caused a lot of loss, which was detrimental to their fight in the abyss realm.
"Then where did you get the money?"
"Can you teach me?" Skye said pitifully.
"It's easy; you just need to be as rich as me," Maximus generously shared his secret.
"How can that be possible?" Skye rolled her eyes, seeing Maximus wouldn't tell his secret.
"Hmph! Mister is really bad and stingy!"
