109: Welcome gift, Void Chaser Boots
This time, the number embroidered on the back was six, which clearly indicated it wasn't the same Mysterious Merchant.
The previous two Mysterious Merchants had lost money, one after another, especially the Second Mysterious Merchant, who had lost so much he was numb.
Yang Qianhun followed the sound to its source.
Soon, Yang Qianhun had arrived in front of the Sixth Mysterious Merchant.
Seeing this "Egg-Giving Elder," Yang Qianhun still felt a great sense of familiarity.
After all, the companions, or perhaps colleagues, of the previous two Egg-Giving Elders had practically given him many good items for free.
"Young man, do you want to buy an egg?"
The Sixth Mysterious Merchant looked at Yang Qianhun and said with a smile.
His expression was kind and harmless.
"Are you sure it's buying and not drawing?"
Yang Qianhun remembered the lottery game of the First Second Mysterious Merchant and asked directly.
"You heard correctly, of course, it's buying, because this time I only brought one egg, so it's not a draw."
The Sixth Mysterious Merchant affirmed.
"What grade is it?"
Yang Qianhun asked with a suspicious look.
The material of the bag on the Mysterious Merchant's back was unknown, so even his Divine Eye couldn't see through it.
"Of course, it's a golden one."
The Sixth Mysterious Merchant took out a golden egg from the bag on his back and held it in front of Yang Qianhun, saying.
"Aren't you giving this away for free?"
Yang Qianhun was inwardly shocked by the words, but his expression remained calm as he asked.
He vaguely remembered that the highest-grade treasures brought by the previous two Mysterious Merchants were only Epic-grade, and their quantity was limited, extremely scarce.
Especially after he won, the previous two Mysterious Merchants always had an ugly expression, as if their wives had been kidnapped.
This time, the Sixth Mysterious Merchant was completely playing outside the usual rules; he didn't know what he was up to.
"If you're giving a gift, you should give a good one; it can't be something that's not presentable, right?"
The Sixth Mysterious Merchant saw that Yang Qianhun's expression was still calm and continued with a smile, "Since I've already come, charging ten spirit stones can be considered a formality."
"Giving a gift?"
Yang Qianhun was full of questions.
He wasn't some high-ranking official or a regional overlord; why would this Sixth Mysterious Merchant give him a gift?
Moreover, he had never met him before, so there was even less reason.
"Yes, giving a gift."
The Sixth Mysterious Merchant replied with a smile, and seeing Yang Qianhun's confusion, he continued, "Let's be frank, I'm here to invest in you, or more accurately, we are here to invest in you."
"Stop beating around the bush; just say what you mean."
The more Yang Qianhun listened, the more something felt off, so he said directly.
"This matter starts with the previous Second and Third; they were known as the 'Great and Small Pit Gods,' but they unexpectedly fell into your hands. Especially the Third, who almost had a stroke from anger. Originally, the First was supposed to come personally this time, but he had a temporary matter, so he sent me instead."
"Get to the point."
"The First was so shocked after hearing the entire process of what happened between you and the Second and Third that he couldn't recover for a long time. He said you are the one who can save us. Originally, he was going to arrange to come to you himself, but he had a temporary matter, so he sent me to give you a Meeting gift (first meeting gift) first. You should know, this treasure cost us almost all of our savings."
After the Sixth Mysterious Merchant finished speaking, a look of pain appeared on his face, as if he would have to eat instant noodles for several months afterward.
"Save you? How to save? How to help?"
Yang Qianhun frowned upon hearing this and asked directly.
Although Legendary treasures were good, if it was just a small favor without life-threatening danger, that would be fine.
If there was life-threatening danger, let alone one, even two, he might get the treasure but not live to enjoy it.
"For your current strength, it's too early to talk about this. This is just a meeting gift for you; don't feel too much pressure. There's still a long road ahead, and we've waited for countless years; waiting a bit longer is nothing."
The Sixth Mysterious Merchant's eyes became deep and even somewhat hollow as he spoke.
Then he smiled slightly and continued, "Come on, time is almost up. Give me ten spirit stones, and the egg is yours."
After speaking, the Mysterious Merchant took out a golden egg from the large red cloth bag on his back.
"Since it's a meeting gift, I'll accept it for now. From his words, there will likely be more later. Anyway, if I can help then, I will; if not, there's nothing I can do. For now, accepting the treasure is the right thing to do."
Yang Qianhun secretly calculated in his mind.
He directly took out ten spirit stones in exchange for the golden egg in the Sixth Mysterious Merchant's hand.
When the golden egg was in his hand, Yang Qianhun decisively squeezed it hard.
Crack...
The entire golden egg shattered, and then a golden light flashed, transforming into a pair of dark golden battle boots that appeared in his hand.
[Name: Shadow Chasing Boots of the Void]
[Quality: Legendary]
[Type: Equipment]
[Effect 1: Speed increased by 90%]
[Effect 2: Void Shattering Array (Legendary): When released, the surrounding space shatters completely, and the user is randomly teleported to any coordinate. (Note: When released, ignores control below Mythical grade, Cooldown: 24 hours)]
[Description: These are a pair of equipment naturally refined after countless years of floating in the void. They can not only greatly increase one's speed but also come with an extremely powerful escape skill]
One piece of equipment, two effects.
The speed increase was also extremely high; if he wore them, no one at the same level could compare to his speed.
The second effect, which was the skill, was the most important part.
Just the ability to ignore skill control below Mythical grade was enough to demonstrate the power of the Shadow Chasing Boots of the Void.
It could be said that in any desperate situation, as long as the opponent did not possess Mythical-grade control,
If he wanted to activate the skill and escape, no one could stop him.
It was simply incomparably powerful.
Immediately, with a thought, he put on the Shadow Chasing Boots of the Void.
His previous Flying Shadow Battle Boots were directly replaced and moved into his spatial inventory.
Wearing the Shadow Chasing Boots of the Void, Yang Qianhun immediately felt light, as if he could travel a thousand miles in one step.
When he turned to look at the location of the Sixth Mysterious Merchant, the Sixth Mysterious Merchant had already disappeared.
It seemed that to meet again, he would probably have to wait until the next Territory Defense Battle.
Currently, there were less than ten minutes left.
Yang Qianhun went to the Mansion to gather everyone and arrange the deployment for the second wave of the Territory Defense Battle.
Although the first wave was easily won, it didn't mean the second wave would be the same.
After all, caution is the parent of safety; this is an eternal truth.
Currently, in all four directions of the territory, there was black mist in the distance, indicating that the second wave would very likely still attack from all four directions.
So, they would still defend according to the deployment of the first wave.
Even if the Demon Clan's attack in the second wave changed to one direction, they would still have time to adjust their formation then.
This time, all the soldiers remained on high alert, with serious expressions, showing no signs of carelessness.

As the countdown ended,
The second wave of attack officially began.
