Douluo: Traveling through Huo Yuhao, starting with Yao Lao
Chapter 497 The power of a hammer turns decay into magic! (page 1)
To give a simple example, among rare metals, there is a kind of soul-forged silver that has a very high affinity for the soul power. It can be fused into any metal to enhance its affinity for the soul master's soul power and at the same time enhance the toughness of the metal. and hardness, which are almost essential for all high-level soul tools.
Nowadays, as battle armors and mechas are becoming more popular, this rare metal can be said to be a must-have. Because even if there are deficiencies in forging and craftsmanship, soul-forged silver can use its own characteristics to make up for some of these deficiencies.
Soul-forged silver, a rare metal, is only produced in the Sun and Moon Empire. The output is medium, and the mining cost is about 500 gold soul coins per kilogram. But the price of this thing in the market is as high as one thousand gold soul coins per gram, a profit of two thousand times! How can we not make people crazy?
Even if there will be various kinds of exploitation in the channel, it will still be a huge profit. And soul-forged silver is not the most profitable among many rare metals.
Some of the rarer rare metals, such as Skystar Iron that can be used for smelting and forging, are even more expensive.
Huge profits are tempting, and the influence of the three major underground forces in Mingdu can spread almost all over the country, so they naturally want a piece of the pie.
The black market trading of rare metals brings them huge profits every year. This is when the state monopolizes this industry and uses rare metals as strategic materials and does not allow exports.
The three major underground forces named this competition: Mingdu Soul Master Elite Competition, which complements the continent's young senior soul master elite competition. The area that Huo Yuhao chose to participate in was the Xishui Alliance, which was the strongest among the three underground forces, but was vaguely suppressed by the other two forces.
As for why, naturally he wanted to see what little moves the Holy Spirit Cult would make this time.
The Xishui League's preliminaries are held at a high-end hotel in the city center, the Qingse Hotel, a hotel with a very distinctive name. It is only a little over one kilometer away from the Mingyue Hotel and only two kilometers away from the Sun and Moon Empire Palace. In an absolutely prime location.
It's just that the name of this hotel is often called incorrectly, and it's easy to misunderstand it as a sex hotel, but that's why it got its name. (In fact, you started it yourself, Wei Zi, right?) This is the property of the Xishui League. As for whether the headquarters of the Xishui League is here, no one knows.
On the surface, Qingse Hotel does not appear to be as big as Mingyue Hotel, with only five floors above ground, but those who are familiar with it understand that its true strength is reflected underground.
At the front entrance of the hotel, four strong men, all over two meters tall and wearing tight-fitting black suits, were standing, looking at the flow of people passing by with cold eyes.
Before Huo Yuhao and the others came near, a strong man in black came forward and blocked their way with a raised hand.
"The hotel is closed to the public today, please leave!"
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, calmly took out a silver soul guide carving knife, and said with a smile: "I am not here to stay in the hotel, but to participate in the Mingdu Soul Guide Elite Competition."
The strong man in black was stunned for a moment, and the expression on his face was obviously respectful. The status of soul masters in the Sun and Moon Empire is much higher than that of other countries, and offending a soul master, even if the other party is not of a high level, is never a wise choice.
"Sorry, Mr. Soul Master, the preliminaries have started and will end soon. You are late." The strong man in black said with regret, but his expression was a little more respectful, maybe because of Ning Tian The beauty and nobility on her body were also the reason why he was afraid.
Huo Yuhao said with regret: "That's such a pity. Originally, I thought I could represent the Xishui League in the finals and help you win the championship. Do you think this is good? I will spend one million gold souls. I bet that I can qualify today. Anyway, there is not much time now. If I can't qualify, won't I make a lot of money for you, but if I qualify, it means that Xishui League has a good one. The soul master competes. It’s a very beneficial result for you, isn’t it?”
The big man in black was stunned, took a breath of air and said: "One million gold soul coins, are you sure?!"
For the underground world, gambling is no secret. Without the tacit approval from above, such a large-scale competition would not be possible.
Therefore, the big man in black did not shy away from it, but he was frightened by the amount of money Huo Yuhao said. One million gold soul coins are already the entire working capital of the big families in Mingdu. Even the royal family rarely has such a large amount of money, and it is still a bet on himself. Isn't he afraid that Xishui Alliance will use secret operations to cheat? His money?
Huo Yuhao nodded seriously and said, "I believe in the fairness of the Xishui Alliance. If you can't make the decision, you can ask the superiors for instructions."
"please wait."
The expression of the big man in black became more respectful. After a simple salute to Huo Yuhao, he quickly walked towards the door of Qingse Hotel. After exchanging a few words with his companion at the door, he quickly entered the hotel.
Do you believe in the justice of an underground force? Only a mentally retarded person would believe this nonsense. This young man dares to bet millions of gold soul coins on himself without fear of being targeted. This only shows that he does not care about the Xishui Alliance, or even the forces behind the Xishui Alliance.
The big man in black would not dare to offend a big shot like this, otherwise he would not even know how he died.
Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing an elegant white gown came out of the front door of Qingse Hotel. Seeing Huo Yuhao and the other four standing outside the hotel, he quickly stepped forward and said with a smile on his face: "My subordinates are ignorant. Distinguished guests, please follow me."
As he spoke, he already made a gesture of invitation.
The interior of Qingse Hotel is indeed very green, and the layout is very simple. There is no clue that this is the number one underground force in Mingdu, and it is also a very important stronghold of the Xishui League.
The layout of the entire hotel has a simple feel, with white porcelain decorations everywhere, white porcelain floors, white porcelain walls, and all colors are mainly white and red.
After entering the hotel, the middle-aged man stopped and said, "Dear guests, I wonder who is going to participate in our Mingdu Soul Master Elite Competition?"
Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "I want to participate."
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "I wonder what you call me?"
Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "My name is Gao Qiqiang."
The middle-aged man nodded. Of course, what Huo Yuhao said at this time may not be his real name. Many soul masters have special habits, and many people have scruples when participating in underground competitions. There are many people who use pseudonyms.
And the way to win over them in this underground power competition is definitely not by name. It is very important not to inquire about the privacy of powerful soul masters. Only profit can keep them.
"Because the competition has started for a while and will end soon, so time is a bit tight. Can you please show your identity as a soul mentor? I will arrange the competition for you immediately. Also, you mentioned the betting just now... "
Huo Yuhao raised his hand, and Ning Tian behind him had already taken out a dark gold card and handed it over.
"This is the black gold VIP card of Ruijian Bank that is common in mainland China. Honey, you go and place your bet later." Huo Yuhao said with a smile.
Huo Yuhao couldn't expose his real name, and Ning Tian certainly couldn't expose it either. And because Huo Yuhao's true appearance has always been concealed, and Ning Tian has never participated in a competition, even people who have watched the daytime competition will never recognize them.
