As for the item she obtained from completing the main quest "Sinner Who Watches the Kingdom", Xu Xiaoyou pulled out a pure ruby with a transparent surface and sharp edges; its interior pulsed with red light like a beating heart.
【Item: Heart of Frenzied Loyalty】
【Quality: Legacy (Red)】
【Power: None】
【Damage Type: Unknown】
【Usage Condition: Charm higher than 1000】
【Soul-bound: Player 0E3604】
【Unique Trait: Within a 500m radius centered on you, units with "undying loyalty" toward you will have all attributes increased by ?%. You can unconditionally designate a single target to gain the "Frenzied Loyalty" effect, causing them to break free from control, lose their sanity, and enter a berserk state, acting unconditionally according to your will. Note: The specific value of the attribute increase '?' is influenced by the charm attribute; forcing its use may lead to backfiring.】
【Item Description: Communication is an art—the heart of a person of frenzied loyalty.】
Excellent, it was a tool that perfectly suited her; just looking at its traits told her that this item was absurdly powerful.
As for the side effects, sorry, Xu Xiaoyou only saw the word "overpowered" written between the lines.
With the hyperdimensional projector, any improvement in Oasis was equivalent to an improvement in reality; as long as she used this item, she would obtain the corresponding traits in the real world as well.
She gripped it and refined it in an instant!
As the crystal shattered, a red mist drifted across the surface of Xu Xiaoyou's skin, and after a moment, it completely seeped into her body.
It felt like slowly sinking into hot spring water; a warm sensation surged through her entire body, and aside from her body temperature rising slightly and a few murmurs echoing in her ears, there was no other abnormality.
After using the item, Xu Xiaoyou was surprised to find that titles could actually be stacked together!
Thus, the text above her head became—"Kingdom Watcher · Light-Chaser Flower-Bearer · Hellend."
It really matched her temperament perfectly.
The exchange within Life Daybreak was noisy, with many people gathered there; the sounds of hawking and bargaining were endless.
Some were guild trade officers ordered by their leaders to sell loot, while others were lucky solo players looking to make a quick buck.
Even more people were there to see if they could find a bargain or pick up a treasure at a low price.
Angelina used a tattered cloth to hold a large bundle of loot, rented a private room for a few hours for a hundred federal shields, and casually spread the loot on the floor before sitting with her legs crossed high, entertaining herself with the curtain.
Normally, guild members were not allowed to keep loot for themselves; all loot was supposed to be prioritized for unified distribution by the guild, but Angelina had never said she belonged to Light-Chaser Garden. She considered herself a hardcore mercenary who was only forced to live under someone else's roof due to the current situation; as long as someone paid enough, she wouldn't mind stabbing the Pomelo Pest in the back.
If it weren't for the favor she owed and Xu Xiaoyou pestering her with various temptations, she wouldn't have bothered with any Visiting Battle by Overstepping Authority.
Therefore, having set up her own shop, she had to earn some money herself; one would still starve to death in Oasis if they didn't eat.
Life wasn't easy, and Angelina let out a sigh.
Soon, her stall was surrounded by people; with Angelina's eye for quality, the loot she personally selected was naturally excellent, all high-grade goods that made people unable to look away, though they suffered from light pockets...
Of course, given the young girl's service attitude, lowering prices or giving a friendly face was impossible.
"What are you looking at? Buy it or don't. If you're not buying, get lost. Don't stand here being an eyesore."
"Hmph, what an attitude."
"Isn't she just a dog for the Dark Gold Rose? What's she so proud of?"
"Exactly, she's just eating the scraps that fall from the Dark Gold Rose's mouth, and she actually thinks she's something special."
Angelina picked at her ear, silently noting the appearances of those few individuals.
Of course, she didn't actually care.
"Boss, how much for this?"
A familiar voice rang out, accompanied by a wave of discussion nearby.
Angelina snorted and looked up; she didn't even need to think to know who had arrived.
Seeing Xu Xiaoyou with a face full of smiles and an incredibly bright title over her head, Angelina gave her a side-eye and saw the gem the blonde girl was holding.
"That's not for sale."
Xu Xiaoyou looked thoughtful, holding the gem up to the light; it was nothing more than an ordinary gemstone without any traits, and even in the hands of a top-tier jeweler, it could only be carved into a setting for jewelry.
"This gem looks pretty ordinary. Does it have some special meaning to you, boss? Why isn't it for sale?"
"It's just not for sale," Angelina said, resting her face on her hand with her legs still crossed.
Xu Xiaoyou shrugged and examined an old flintlock gun.
The body of this flintlock was covered in scratches, and the muzzle was heavily rusted; it might be fine for shooting zombies, but in a grade 2 battle or higher, it would probably only tickle the enemy. Not to mention it looked quite aged, so whether it could even fire was debatable.
Xu Xiaoyou actually had a penchant for collecting these kinds of old firearms, and her room was filled with similar collectibles.
"How much for this?"
"That's not for sale either," Angelina said.
"That's strange, boss. Are you not planning to do business?"
"What about this then?"
Angelina stood up impatiently and stared into Xu Xiaoyou's eyes.
"I think you might have misunderstood, customer. What I mean is, I'm not selling anything you want to buy. Do you understand now?"
After saying this, she saw the girl blink and point toward her chest with a bright smile.
The meaning of her previous words was already self-evident; Angelina's face twitched, and she looked away with a face full of disgust.
This girl always found a way to annoy her.
Xu Xiaoyou clapped her hands and said to the surrounding crowd, "Everyone heard that, right? I'm taking everything at this stall, but they're not for sale. Scatter, scatter!"
The people present chuckled and took the hint to leave; before long, only Xu Xiaoyou and Angelina remained in the room.
Angelina crossed her arms, watching Xu Xiaoyou's antics with cold eyes.
"Boss, it seems I've accidentally ruined your business. You won't blame me, right?"
As Xu Xiaoyou spoke, she naturally sat down beside her as if none of that had anything to do with her, picking through the loot Angelina had carefully selected, shaking her head at some small items and nodding with approval at others.
"If it's really not working out, just sell it all to me. How about it?"
Angelina let out a sigh.
She was used to it.
Seeing the girl blowing air onto her palms to warm them, she silently unwound her scarf and wrapped it round and round Xu Xiaoyou's head; when she touched the other's skin, she realized the girl's body temperature was a fraction of a degree higher than normal, feeling quite warm.
As a snow-field wolf, her perception of temperature changes was extremely keen.
"You better have a reason for coming to find me."
"Of course I have a reason, and it's an urgent one." Xu Xiaoyou was playing with a Lu Ban lock, seemingly never tiring of it.
"The gala tonight—can you come?"
"Is it absolutely necessary?" Angelina asked.
"Pretty much. Something very significant is going to happen." Xu Xiaoyou stood up with a mysterious look, prepared to leave the stall while swiping all the items she was interested in.
Angelina watched her leave without a word, sighing as if lamenting her own fate, but said nothing more.
For the rest of the day, something strange happened; ever since Xu Xiaoyou left, not a single person came to visit her little stall.
An entire afternoon passed, and not a single item from the stall was missing, but the federal shields she needed for her meals over the next few days had been docked to zero.
Initially puzzled, Angelina suddenly realized something; her heart skipped a beat as she left the room with a dark expression. The large handwriting of Xu Xiaoyou on the sign outside made her eyelids twitch.
"Beware of vicious dog, do not approach."
