Everyone Has a Castle: I Choose Elves to be in My Army - Chapter 39
After pondering for a moment, Gale opened his [Friend] list.
After confirming the general situation with Natalie, he opened the [World Chat] and posted an announcement.
[Tomorrow at around 8 pm, there will be a sale for a large amount of equipment and weapons! At the same time, the high grade equipment made from the Tier 8 Horned Dragon material will be sold. The quantity is limited, you snooze, you lose!]
[Resources that can be exchanged for equipment: Only pure iron!]
Nowadays, what Gale lacked most were pure iron resources.
He could use this transaction to obtain a large amount of pure iron.
Without a doubt, the moment the message was sent out, it immediately caused a commotion.
There were many castle lords watching Gale’s movements.
Of course, at the current point in time, not many Castle Lords had equipment.
Not even low grade equipment!
The reason was simple. The common low-levelled monsters would not drop equipment.
If they wanted to obtain equipment, they could only kill monsters of higher tiers.
This was also the predicament that most Castle Lords had to face.
Whether they could win or not was a question.
However, this time, Gale wanted to auction an equipment made from the materials of a Tier 8 horned dragon!
Anyone with a brain could tell its value!
Not to mention, it was likely to be a high grade equipment.
Low grade equipment vs high grade equipment….
There was only a one word difference, but the disparity between the two was huge.
If low grade equipment was what the Castle Lords needed….
Then high grade equipment was something that they all dreamed of!
If one could get their hands on such a ‘treasure’, they would definitely have to bleed for it!
It had to be said that Gale’s preemptive warm-up had made most of the Castle Lords’ clench their hearts tightly.
[Wuhu, I must get high grade equipment!]
[I’m so envious. I don’t even have low grade equipment now, but Big Boss Gale is starting to forge high grade equipment!]
[Low grade equipment is a newbie weapon, high grade equipment is a godly weapon!]
[I’m sure that whoever has this high grade equipment can definitely survive this beast tide!]
[Don’t you think it’s strange? Big Boss Gale can even auction high grade equipment. Does he have better equipment?]
[It’s scary to think about it. Big Boss Gale and us are no longer on the same level!]
[This is a little scary guys!]
[Big Boss Gale, please accept my knees!]
Actually, Gale did not have any equipment on hand.
However, the Tier 8 horned dragon was huge, thus the materials that were obtained from its body were more than usual.
These materials could create more than one set of high grade equipment.
According to his own calculations…
He would keep one set for himself, one set for Natalie, and the rest would naturally be auctioned for resources.
While Gale was considering his next steps, the [World Chat] was burning up with discussions.
Many people raised their doubts.
[Since the number is limited, wouldn’t it be a waste to use it to equip battle units?]
[I think so too. I have many battle units but I can only buy one. What if the battle units start fighting for it?]
[Above, just give me the equipment. I’ll wear it for you!]
[I wonder how many pieces of equipment will be released this time?]
[The numbers can’t be more than what you can count with one hand. Tier 8 materials are too rare!]
Many castle lords realized this problem.
The rarity of a Tier 8 horned dragon material was something anyone with a brain could think of.
These limited materials could not create hundreds of sets of equipment.
It was even more impossible to equip all the battle units of a Castle Lord with said equipment.
If Gale was lucky, he would be able to create 10 sets.
Most importantly, Gale did not intend to sell bundled sets.
Instead, he was preparing to break down a set of equipment and sell it according to its parts!
Only then would the benefits be maximized!
In other words, only the Castle Lords who were possessed by the Goddess of Luck and had a lot of resources, could gather a set of equipment.
At this moment, some clear-headed Castle Lords stepped forward to refute.
[Do you have brains? Such expensive equipment, it should only be worn by ourselves!]
[The commenter above is right. Once the novice period is over and the Beast Tide arrives, the safety of the Castle Lord is the most important!]
[It doesn’t matter if the battle units die. If you are alive, you will be able to summon the battle units again and return to the power struggle seat!]
[I’m really worried about your intelligence. If it’s really like what you said, wouldn’t those Castle Lords who have a large number of soldiers die of overwork trying to equip their soldiers?]
[Y’all can continue bullsh*tting here, I’ve already organized a mining team to excavate pure iron!]
[I’m in tears here. I don’t even know what pure iron looks like!]
[Me too!]
[I don’t know why Big Boss Gale wants pure iron. Can’t the other resources work?]
[Above, are you new? An advanced castle needs a lot of pure iron to be upgraded to an elementary town!]
[I envy our Big Boss everyday. My castle has just reached the intermediate level and is still a distance away from the advanced level!]
[Big Boss Gale is indeed the best in the Endless Land!]
[Off to get more pure iron!]
Gale’s words directly raised the price of pure iron.
This was good news for him.
If most of the castle lords had pure iron in their hands, the auction price would definitely be quite low.
But if pure iron was in the hands of a few castle lords, the result would be the opposite.
It did not mean that the greater the number of pure iron available, the greater the competition.
Sometimes, gathering everything into the hands of some people could push the competition to the maximum.
This was also the smartest part of Gale’s plan.
He could acutely sense the changes within the market.
Right now, he could even change the current business situation with just one sentence.
“It seems that more and more people are starting to pay attention to pure iron resources.”
Gale looked at the virtual interface in front of him and smiled.
The Castle Lords who had pinnacle battle units were currently buying pure iron.
The price also changed from three units of pure iron for one unit of food, to the current ratio of 1:1.
There were even extreme cases where one unit of pure iron was exchanged for two units of food instead.
Those who could do such a crazy thing were mostly castle lords who had pinnacle battle units.
While their battle units under them were powerful, their own strength was extremely weak.
In that case, this high grade equipment would suit the tastes of such Castle Lords.
Furthermore, with the beast tide looming in the horizon, all the Castle Lords wanted to live on.
So what if they had powerful battle units?
If they could not survive the beast tide, no matter how many battle units they had, they would eventually turn into nothingness.
The battle units themselves might be able to resist the ferocious beast tide, but the same could not be said for the Lord.
Even Gale who had reached Tier 5 did not dare to be careless.
This was why he had left a set of Advanced equipment for himself.
“The auction tomorrow night will definitely be very lively.”
Gale watched as more and more castle lords started to buy pure iron in the [Trading Channel].
It was as if he could see the surge of pure iron waving at him.
