Chapter 770 - 731: Triggering International Trade Sanctions

That’s right, as long as the Demon Crystals are handed over to the NPCs in the Divine Punishment City, it counts as contributing to the city, which should tally as Merit! Although certainly not as much Merit as directly killing enemies on the battlefield, if I can expand the business and prevent certain forces among European Union players from becoming overly dominant, I can still achieve a respectable Merit ranking just by sitting in the city, then just wait and see?

Da Fei quickly determined the direction of development for the future—in short, to wait for opportunities while making money, or even to create opportunities.

Now, Da Fei and Napoleon completed their first transaction, and the two exchanged friendly handshakes.

Da Fei smiled and said, "Go ahead, time is tight!"

Napoleon sighed deeply, "Friend, you’ve struck rich! Await our good news!"

Da Fei laughed heartily, "Wishing you success!"

Looking at the newly acquired two Divine Artifact Components, Da Fei was satisfied and extremely delighted! This Divine Artifact was obtained with remarkable ease! Such pleasure seemed only rivaled by the time One Sword Eastward voluntarily gave me the Mana Source.

Unexpectedly, the French are quite friendly and considerate, got it! From now on, I’ll take care of them on the National War battlefield. By the way, I’ve never had the chance to express my gratitude to One Sword Eastward; what an incompetent Guild leader!

All in all, taking advantage of this selling opportunity in the European Union Zone, strive to get tens of sets of top-tier equipment, and then, upon returning, I can open the Qiankun Bag just like the Great Sage Equalling Heaven: "Children, come and get the treasures!" Haha, wahahaha!

Surrounded by more than a dozen French team members, Napoleon descended the mountain spiritedly with the newly acquired 5 Angel Soldiers. For top-tier professional players worldwide, these five Angels undoubtedly represent a downhill heavy blow, and their appearance will challenge UK’s monopoly in Divine Punishment City immediately.

Therefore, watching France’s battle suddenly gain 5 more Angels, the entire square of European Union players naturally understood what this represented, instantly refocusing all their attention on Da Fei.

That’s right; you’re perceptive enough to notice that I’m the key figure in controlling the situation! But everyone need not fret, the French are just the start; your turn is coming soon.

Thus, Da Fei immediately stationed himself in front of the Mercenary Store to set up shop, and the shop sign naturally read, "Selling Angel Soldiers for 450 pieces of Demon Essence each, discounts for bulk purchases!"

—Translation System Prompt: Would you like the store name to be converted into multiple languages? Each language conversion will cost ten thousand Gold Coins.

Da Fei laughed heartily; this translation system is indeed magical, this European Union Zone is indeed convoluted, alright! Various languages: English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Greek, Swedish, all translated!

In an instant, Da Fei’s shop sign shot up in length right to the Mercenary Store’s eaves, and as expected, the entire square of European Union players exploded in astonishment!

That’s exactly the effect I want! Da Fei waved and laughed to the surrounding crowd: "Everyone, hurry up! You can buy cheap Angels from me here!"

At this time, the reporters who had been tracking Da Fei very wisely came over for interviews: "Mr. Da Fei, may we ask if you brought a large number of hidden troops from the China Region that you can sell at any time?"

Reporters are sometimes quite adorable, helping to promote me well, haha! Da Fei nodded: "You could say that. After all, I’m the City Lord of China’s Divine Punishment City, and this is my way of supporting the European Union Zone. Of course, everyone probably doesn’t have that many Demon Essences right now, but if you have some outstanding equipment, it can also be negotiated, like unwanted Divine Artifacts and such."

The reporter asked, "Do you accept Gold Coin transactions then?"

Da Fei smiled and said, "For now, I’m not accepting Gold Coin transactions!"

While Da Fei was elegantly conversing with the reporter and the entire square was in shock, an angry roar came from the city gate: "Da Fei! You fraud!!!"

What the heck, the international situation is indeed treacherous; someone immediately wants to ruin my reputation!? Da Fei quickly looked towards the city gate, only to find Napoleon returning again! Damn, did your troops die out or what?

At this moment, the reporters seemed excitedly enthused as they rushed towards Napoleon, and the players in the entire square erupted again!

Well, international public opinion is about to turn against me! I must dominate the international narrative! Da Fei raised an eyebrow: "You’re speaking falsely and defaming my reputation; I will take this to the International Hague Court to sue you!"

The reporters immediately stepped forward and asked: "Mr. Napoleon, may we ask what exactly happened?"

Napoleon angrily pointed at Da Fei’s sign and yelled: "You said you only had 5 angels to sell, so I paid such a hefty price to make the deal with you, but looking at it now, you have more than 5 angels. You’re nothing but a fraud!"

Da Fei then realized! He actually thought my entire troop consisted of just 5 angels, and so assumed buying all my troops would securely monopolize the second tier of troop power! Gosh, I thought he was generous and friendly, turns out he’s a fool!

Da Fei urgently said: "I said I could only sell you 5, never said I only had 5! Can you understand the difference between ’only can’ and ’only have’?"

Napoleon angrily said: "What’s the difference? Aren’t they the same word!"

Da Fei angrily replied: "Are you an idiot? How can they be the same word!"

At this moment, a German player jumped out: "’Only can’ and ’only have’ in Chinese translate to the same word in French in this context, and this is Da Fei exploiting the loophole in the translation system, intentionally playing word games to mislead, constituting international commercial fraud. I propose trade sanctions against Da Fei and boycott buying anything from him!"

Da Fei turned around to see, what the heck, what’s it to you, German player, sanction your sister, my next trade target was you Germans, was it not? Are you simple-minded?

Napoleon was taken aback for a moment, then immediately regained his composure and shouted, "That’s right, let’s jointly sanction Da Fei; he’s a fraud! We won’t buy anything from him!"

You’ve already benefited from purchasing troops, so you wish for others not to buy them, huh?

Then more players shouted: "Da Fei’s reputation has always been bad in China, yet you still trade with him, you’re asking for trouble!"

Therefore, more players on the square immediately echoed loudly: "Sanctions! Sanctions!!"

Ugh, surely you must be alt accounts from the UK and France, right? Pff! The European Union’s sanctions have always been nonsense, always saying no with their mouths but secretly enthusiastic!"

Da Fei shouted loudly: "It’s a misunderstanding; being the City Lord of China’s Divine Punishment City, how could I possibly only have 5 angels, is he slow-minded? Now everyone, watch closely, I have another 5 angels here; anyone interested can trade anytime!"

After finishing, Da Fei spent 350*5 Demon Essences to purchase 5 more angels, then publicly displayed his troop count! I refuse to believe the fragmented European Union Zone can sanction me!"
