Villain With The Strongest System-Chapter 214: The merchant web

After discussing war plans for hours, Rocky finally decided that he needed a break when the veins in his forehead began to pulsate and pain.

"My head hurts.." he murmured softly, before taking a scan of the room, as he realized that everyone was feeling as tired as him, if not more.

Karna had all the buttons of his shirt undone as he sat like a gangster while nibbling on a pen cap.

Neatwit, having never bothered to put a shirt on, was doing a headstand, as he read a paper while being inverted.

Buhara snored on the floor while using heaps of papers as a blanket.

While Erin also looked disheveled and tired as he seemed to be on the verge of falling asleep.

With a gentle push, Amelia opened the door to the cabin, walking in with a fresh round of coffee for everyone, when looking at the state of the inhabitants inside she wondered as to what the hell was going on in there?

"What is this? An orgy with papers?" Amelia asked, as she gave a reaction that was similar to Buhara calling Neatwit and Karna gay when he first entered the room.

"Agh! Caffeine–" Rocky exclaimed in joy as he leapt towards one of the cups in Amelia's tray and dowsed the coffee in one gulp. Enjoy exclusive adventures from m-v l'-NovelFire

Almost instantly, Rocky's excellent metabolism began absorbing the caffeine, as within seconds, Rocky felt relief from his headache and his drowsiness.

"You're a life-saver Amelia" Karna praised, as Neatwit got down from his headstand and kissed Amelia's palms before taking a cup himself.

"I love you, Karna's fiance" Neatwit said, as Amelia rolled her eyes and chuckled at his comment.

Amelia tried offering some coffee to Buhara and Erin, however, Erin refused politely while Buhara refused to wake up.

"Alright, I'll let you guys work more then…" Amelia said, before moving back out, however, Rocky followed her too.

"Aunt…" he said, prompting Amelia to pause and look behind as she raised an eyebrow.

"I'm tired from work and I'm looking to take a quick break.

Do you mind telling me where I can purchase the best quality swords on Earth?

I have lots of TG, but I don't know where to spend it to procure premium weapons" Rocky asked, as Amelia nodded at him and gestured at him to follow her.

Amelia was the best connected secretary on the entire planet and she was a walking knowledge trove when it came to matters such as procurement of items.

Whether it was premium auctions, or access to select black markets, she had it all and she regularly used it to buy items for the guild.

"I don't usually let anyone use my computer… so consider yourself lucky" Amelia said, as she walked over to her desk and started to type ferociously on the keyboard.

Instead of surfing the internet, she instead logged into some secret server that Rocky had never seen before and after passing through a lot of security checks, she finally opened a webpage that looked like the local shopping site 'Amazon', however, was instead a market-place for magic artifacts and high level weapons.

"This is the merchants web, it's a portal that only the 'True Elites' guild has access to on the entire Earth as not even the Climber's Association has access to it.

If you buy any item from here, it will be delivered to the guild within 30 minutes of your purchase and in extreme secrecy, however, you cannot reveal the presence of this portal to anyone.

We use it often to bypass paying taxes, since the Climber's Association can't track packages coming through this service, and it helps save the guild millions of TG annually.

So while I'm letting you use it just this once… don't fuck up" Amelia said as she moved aside to give Rocky some space to operate her PC, as once Rocky began scrolling on the website he realised that this merchants web was much more formidable than he could ever have imagined.

Everything from High Density Mana Stones, Secret Skill Scrolls, Weapons Blueprints and more was on sale on the website, with there being some artifacts on sale that were clearly illegal to import in any rule-abiding planet.

'Chopped of Sphinx head? Live Zombies? Captured Undead?' Rocky exclaimed internally, feeling shocked as to how absurd the items being sold on the site were.

Out of every five items that Rocky saw, one was an item that the Climber's Association would probably never let anyone bring on Earth as that item had the potential to cause massive problems, like starting an epidemic or poisoning entire river bodies.

Some items being sold on the website were so absurd that Rocky momentarily forgot the reason behind why he was on the site, as he began scrolling through the pages aimlessly, feeling curious to gaze upon all the different stuff that people were selling.

"Hey! No idle scrolling…. Buy a weapon fast and get your ass back to work…" Amelia scolded him from the side, as she pointed towards the search feature in the website and asked Rocky to filter out all the junk and only focus on swords.

"Alright, alright…." Rocky mumbled in complaint, as he put 'Twin Blades' in his search and applied the item grade to be (Epic) or above as a requirement.

Immediately, 25 search results opened before him with 23 of them being Epic grade swords, and 2 of them being semi-legendary grade weapons.

Setting the price filter from low to high, Rocky further refined his search as he began skimming through the weapons and their descriptions available for sale.

The cheapest pair of swords were listed on the platform around 300,000 TG, while the most expensive option was listed for a whopping 1.1 Million TG.

"These are really expensive… do you really have the money to buy such weapons or are you hoping for a loan?" Amelia asked sternly, wondering if Rocky was planning to freeload from the guild, however, Rocky shut down her concerns when he said "I have a million TG aunt Amelia, however, I need to buy both a new weapon and a new set of Armor from it".
