Chapter 278: Gearing Up, Glorious Rank! (1) | Throne Of Seal [Trans]

Throne Of Seal [Trans] - Updated on March 15, 2025

Zhang Fangfang wasn’t one to dwell on things. Seeing the hesitation in Long Haochen’s expression, he said frankly, “Although this incident caused conflict between our two Demon Hunt Squads, it wasn’t entirely a bad thing. Didn’t it allow me to meet a promising young talent like Squad Leader Long? The war mission is about to begin, and we’re both general-level Demon Hunt Squads, so we might be assigned the same mission. I hope Squad Leader Long will put aside past grievances and we can watch out for each other and deal with the demons together.”

Long Haochen chuckled and nodded, “That’s for sure. The demons are our common enemy.”

Zhang Fangfang nodded to Long Haochen again before leaving with his two companions.

Watching his retreating figure, Long Haochen thought briefly. His mental strength was extraordinary, and he was very perceptive when it came to observing people. He could sense that this Squad Leader Zhang wasn’t being deliberately pretentious, but was sincerely apologizing. This person was not simple! He had a broad mind. But after five years, he was still at the general level. It seemed he really didn’t have good luck. If there was anything he could do to help him during this war mission, he could really watch out for each other.

“Boss, why should we apologize? Even if we were wrong, that kid also won 100,000 merit points from us. We just paid off the debt not long ago,” Fifth Brother said to Zhang Fangfang, unconvinced.

Zhang Fangfang’s face darkened, and he said, “Fifth Brother, you’re still arguing. What can I say about the two of you? 100,000 merit points, how much hard work did it take for the brothers to earn them? That Squad Leader Long is not simple. Remember, all past grievances must be forgotten. The war mission is about to begin. Although the emergency war mission is very dangerous, it also comes with great opportunities.”

Fifth Brother wanted to argue, but Sixth Brother stopped him, “What Boss said is right. That Squad Leader Long is not simple. Judging by his appearance, he’s probably not even twenty years old, but he can defeat you head-on, and you already tried your best. He won fair and square. This is an absolute difference in strength. I think he’s at least at the peak of the fifth rank. Even if he hasn’t broken through to the sixth rank, with the existence of the light elemental spirit, his strength is second to none among the Demon Hunters of this generation. With enough time to grow, his strength will definitely improve by leaps and bounds.”

Zhang Fangfang sighed softly, “If you could have been more careful earlier, at least investigating his background, you wouldn’t have lost so miserably. I specifically asked about this Squad Leader Long’s situation. He’s the champion of the individual competition in the new Demon Hunt Squad Selection Tournament. The team he leads is also the first place in the team competition. Moreover, they were promoted to the general-level Demon Hunt Squad with enough merit points without completing any official Demon Hunt Squad missions. Just these three points are not something you should provoke. Let go of what you should let go of. Anyway, it’s not the first time we’ve been unlucky.”

Fifth Brother and Sixth Brother both lowered their heads. Fifth Brother’s eyes were a little red, “Boss, I was wrong. It’s all my fault, and I’ve put the team in such a difficult situation again. I’m sorry everyone. I…”

Zhang Fangfang’s actual age was even younger than Fifth Brother’s, but he had the demeanor of an older brother. He patted Fifth Brother on the shoulder and said, “What’s done is done. Can blaming you bring back our merit points? I just hope you won’t be so reckless in the future. Just consider it another lesson learned.”

Cai’er ultimately failed to persuade Long Haochen. In his rare show of strength, she finally got Long Haochen to buy her a Firm Armor, costing 8,000 merit points. Then he bought her a Glorious-grade equipment called the Invisibility Necklace.

The Invisibility Necklace can more perfectly conceal one’s aura and distort space, creating an invisibility effect.

Cai’er herself can’t truly become invisible. She relies on the terrain to hide her body. True invisibility, which can hide in space or even travel through space, can only be learned at the seventh rank. This Invisibility Necklace undoubtedly greatly enhances her survivability on the battlefield. Combined with her existing abilities, it can better hide herself.

Because necklaces are accessory equipment, they are rarer than inner armor, so it cost a full 12,000 merit points to buy. So far, Cai’er alone has spent 20,000 merit points to enhance her strength.

Long Haochen didn’t plan to buy too much for himself. He was the squad leader and had to set an example. Therefore, after buying these two pieces of equipment for Cai’er, he just took her around the trading center and didn’t plan to buy anything else.

As Long Haochen expected, the number of Demon Hunters in the trading center continued to increase. The prices of the items sold by the officials remained unchanged, but the prices of the items traded between Demon Hunters skyrocketed due to the increased number of people.

Lin Xin didn’t know what he bought. Now he had become a seller, and the number of people around him buying things was the largest in the entire second floor of the trading center.

Long Haochen wasn’t planning to buy anything anyway, so he brought Cai’er to take a look.

Lin Xin was doing his old business, selling medicine, and the medicine he was selling wasn’t cheap.

The main medicines were just a few: Jade Body Protecting Pill, which he originally called the Vigorous Pill, which can increase 500 outer spiritual power. There were also Spirit Explosion Pill and Spirit Recovery Pill.

Because they had the Great Spirit Recovery Pill and the Vigorous Pill, these pills could be said to be eliminated by Long Haochen and his team. As for the Spirit Explosion Pill, they had enough to keep 20 for their own use. Lin Xin was so shrewd that he took out his stock and came here to sell it.

The pills refined by Lin Xin were obviously not comparable to the pills sold by the trading center’s officials, but what were the prices of the pills sold by the officials? The Saint Spirit Pill, which cost 10,000 merit points per pill, was cheap.

The number of magic pharmacists was extremely scarce, and the sale of pills was the least in the trading center. Moreover, the emergency war mission was about to begin, and a suitable pill might give them a chance to survive!

This led to the rising prices of the pills sold by Lin Xin. Among his stock, the Jade Body Protecting Pill was the most numerous, and it had already been speculated to 400 merit points per pill.

Merit points couldn’t be compared to money. You know, killing a green double-bladed demon only earned 10 merit points. 400 merit points was not a small amount.

But among the Demon Hunt Squads performing this mission, the general level was the most numerous. With more people buying, the prices were high, but they were still selling quickly.

As for the Spirit Explosion Pill, it was directly sold for a high price of 1,000 merit points per pill, and the Spirit Recovery Pill also cost 600 merit points. And no bargaining.

In Lin Xin’s own words, he was already considering everyone as fellow Demon Hunters by not holding an auction.

Long Haochen naturally wouldn’t stop him. Although Lin Xin had a bit of a opportunistic feel, selling the pills they didn’t need to their own people could increase everyone’s survivability on the battlefield, which was still a good thing. After all, merit points were dead objects, but the immediate combat power and recovery medicines could save lives.

The procurement of everyone was only completed after a full afternoon of work.

“Squad Leader, it’s done. Let’s go back.” The partners all gathered around Long Haochen, looking at him and Cai’er with smiling faces. Looking at them, Long Haochen felt that something was wrong, but he couldn’t figure out what it was. Lin Xin had also sold out his pills, and everyone returned together, returning to the villa to rest.

Back at the villa, Long Haochen said, “Everyone, don’t leave yet. Show off the equipment you bought, so we can all get to know each other.” This time their target purchases were all Glorious-grade equipment, and each piece could significantly enhance their own cultivation. Their respective abilities must have changed. Only by familiarizing ourselves with them can we maintain our usual tacit understanding.

Lin Xin said, “I’ll go first. What I bought are all consumables. I won’t attack, but I have medicine. All the money I made from selling medicine was exchanged for magic scrolls. At critical moments, I can throw scrolls to hold on for a while. Among them, there are ten fifth-order scrolls, five sixth-order scrolls, and one seventh-order scroll that I bought at a high price of 10,000 merit points. I’ll tell you all about the specific effects when we go to the front line later. As for equipment, I didn’t buy anything. With the amplification of the Fire Crystal Staff, I don’t need other equipment for the time being. I’ll talk about it when I break through to the sixth rank.”

Long Haochen said, “Okay, Yuanyuan, what about you?”

Wang Yuanyuan said, “My Titan God’s Shield is my weapon, so I don’t need to increase it. I’m not good at defense either. I still prefer to use a shield with both hands, so the weapon remains unchanged. I bought a set of Glorious-grade space attribute armor. It’s called Space Guardian, and it cost 32,000 merit points.”

Speaking of this, her face was a little red. Among the equipment purchased this time, the price of her armor was the most expensive.

Long Haochen smiled and said, “What skills does it come with?”

Wang Yuanyuan said, “It comes with a solidified fifth-order space shield. I only need to release one-fifth of the spiritual power equivalent to a space mage using this skill to activate it. At the same time, it also has the effect of enhancing spiritual gathering by 30%. There is mithril added to its own material, which has an all-round improvement on my overall strength.”

Long Haochen gave a thumbs up and said, “It’s worth it. If this armor were put up for sale outside, it would probably be an astronomical amount of money. Yuanyuan has a good eye.”

Wang Yuanyuan laughed and said, “At least I can use it until the seventh rank. I won’t change my armor before the seventh rank.” Obviously, she was very satisfied with her new Space Guardian armor.

Long Haochen said, “Did you buy anything else?”

Wang Yuanyuan stuck out her tongue and said, “It already cost more than 30,000 merit points. If I bought anything else, I would have overspent.”

Long Haochen said, “What about the others? Who wants to go first?”

Chen Ying’er jumped up and raised her hand, “Me, me. I didn’t buy anything expensive either. I just bought some pills specifically for magical beasts to eat. Medicine Bro wouldn’t refine this stuff anyway. I think my Maidou is about to advance. It cost a total of 4,000 merit points.”
