Once, I wanted to be a good person-Chapter 552 - 123. New Ability, The Establishment of the Devil’s Exchange That Shocks the Believers (8000 Words for Monthly Tickets!)_3

So, this essentially required amassing 1 million Contribution Points before the Fusion stage.

For an Awakener, this was an utterly impossible task.

Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly noticed another item listed under the sold count. It strikingly showed a [1]!

"One?!" Seeing this symbol, Zhixi was even more shocked.

Someone actually managed to buy it? This... How is that possible?

Zhixi's spirit was a bit bewildered, as she felt there must be a mistake.

Such a big event, and not a single piece of news had been heard...

She remembered reading in the documents that nobles were like stars in the sky, and the birth of every noble family was accompanied by the lighting of a new star...

Normally, it was absolutely impossible to keep this hidden.

Unless... the Federation had blocked the news... and was also searching for the identity of that new noble.

Zhixi pondered that tomorrow she could ask her father and see if any strange orders had come down from above...

With the possession of a noble identity, Zhixi was more accepting of other Extraordinary Artifacts and abilities.

Looking at the array of items listed above, Zhixi checked her Contribution Points: 10 points.

According to the exchange's description, these were a reward for setting up a base in Miaohua City.

And these 10 Contribution Points could only purchase some of the most basic Extraordinary Artifacts and abilities.

For instance, a very basic, initial-level defense artifact...

With the thought of experimenting and since she had never owned an Extraordinary Artifact from childhood, Zhixi tried purchasing an initial-level defense artifact.

With her purchase, her Contribution Points instantly reset to zero.

Moments later, a black hole appeared in front of her, and a delicate bracelet materialized out of nowhere within the black hole.

Zhixi reached out to take the bracelet.

The bracelet was trendy and beautiful, all silver with several red gems adorning it.

At first glance, Zhixi fell in love with the bracelet.

She gently caressed the bracelet and then wore it on her wrist.

Moments later, following the instructions, she activated the defense artifact.

That instant, a transparent membrane appeared around her body out of nowhere.

The membrane completely enveloped her, seemingly capable of defending against attacks from any direction.

The profound sense of enclosure briefly filled Zhixi's heart with a sense of security.

Looking at the marketplace page, her heart was filled with fighting spirit. If previously she just wanted to repay Lord Devil and Fang Ze for their graciousness, she now added the desire to completely change her own fate!

With such a comprehensive marketplace, she believed that as long as she worked hard, she could definitely turn herself into someone completely different!

Meanwhile, other than her, Miaomiao, Wang Hao, and a few Awakeners among the Believers, had also been invited to the Devil's Exchange sooner or later, in the absence of outsiders.

Like Zhixi, they were amazed by the marvel and strength of the Devil's Exchange. Unlike Zhixi, however, most of them had no Contribution Points, so they anxiously clawed at their cheeks as they looked at the enticing products above.

When they saw that completing regional tasks, offering Extraordinary Artifacts, Awakening Abilities, and precious items could earn Contribution Points, they suddenly filled with fighting spirit!

Wang Hao said, "I must exchange that 'Rock Tape'! I don't believe it's really that miraculous! Yes, I'm purely approaching this from a research perspective!"

....

At this time, Fang Ze was still unaware that the opening of the exchange had gotten all his Awakener-level followers excited.

At this moment, he had just finished interrogating Director Peng from the Emerald City Investigation Bureau and was sorting through the related information.

As Fang Ze had suspected, Director Peng had been dragged into this by Commissioner Wang.

Back then, Director Peng was just an ordinary chief at the Investigation Bureau, dealing with public security work. Commissioner Wang was very optimistic about him, so he made contact with him privately and lured him with promises of a future and benefits, successfully corrupting him.

Eventually, Director Peng also devoted himself to Dahei Jialuo, the Demigod.

Like Commissioner Wang and his son, Director Peng's temper also became explosive and irritable, resembling a ticking time bomb.

However, possibly because he was an Investigator by profession, he did not disregard it like Commissioner Wang had, but instead began to research why this was happening.

After nearly ten years of research, he had actually made some discoveries.

He felt that since Dahei Jialuo appeared before them in a "Buddha"-like form, it was likely related to Buddhism.

And their irritable disposition resembled one of Buddhism's Three Poisons: Hatred.

Any dissatisfaction would make them lose their temper, act irrationally, and behave impulsively.

This negative emotion could very well be the type of power Dahei Jialuo needed!

After finishing the interrogation of Director Peng, Fang Ze pondered even more.

Because he suddenly realized that Director Peng's speculation might actually be true—because, for the fifty years the Flower God intended to descend, it had been absorbing the power of pleasure from men and women in the Red Light District.

This indicated that Demigods might indeed require powers that matched their attributes, maybe even constituting one of their sources of power.

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

Though their mighty powers were innate, to descend into the Real World, they needed these forces to support them.
