Kill one monster, stack one poison, and I alone will poison my way across the world!

In the stock exchange.

Su Chen swiped his finger across the light screen, canceling all category filters.

"Junior, which ones have you set your sights on? If they're below silver grade, I can get them for you right now."

The senior student asked with a smile.

In her understanding, ordinary students buy skill stones by the "piece".

Even if the captain of a certain team comes and buys ten or so gold-level skill stones at once, they will still feel the pinch for a long time.

Su Chen looked up and said, "No need to choose. Senior, could you please pack up all the skill stones above the Black Iron grade here for me?"

The air suddenly became quiet for a moment.

The senior student behind the counter froze, blinking as if wondering if she had misheard.

"All...all packaged up?"

The senior student stammered, repeating herself, her voice unconsciously rising two octaves, "Junior, you...you're kidding, right? This list includes both Dark Gold and Gold grades..."

"I'm not kidding."

Su Chen took out his student ID card from his pocket and casually slapped it on the table.

"I bought them all."

The senior student stared at the card on the table, then looked at Su Chen's calm face, and was completely dumbfounded.

Buy them all?

She quickly did some mental calculations.

3 Dark Gold grade, 42 Gold grade, plus those Silver, Bronze and Iron grade... the total value is 2956000!

Nearly three million credits!

What does this mean?

Some small guilds don't even make this much money in a whole year!

"Are...are you sure?"

The senior student's voice was trembling. She swallowed hard, her finger hovering over the interface, hesitant to press the confirmation button.

"Okay, senior, please swipe your card, I'm in a hurry."

Su Chen leaned against the counter and urged him impatiently.

With trembling hands, the senior student swiped Su Chen's ID card onto the reader.

"drop--"

[Payment successful. Total credits consumed: 2956000.]

A crisp system notification sounded from inside the counter.

As the senior student looked at the words "transaction successful" displayed on the screen, she felt a wave of dizziness.

She had worked here for two years to support herself, and this was the first time she had ever seen such a business model of buying skill statues as if they were being stocked up.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the hall is the self-service trading area.

Several students who were browsing around the virtual screen suddenly let out a scream as if they had seen a ghost.

"Holy crap! Am I seeing things? Where did that gold-grade skill stone I was eyeing go?"

"That's nothing! I was just about to save up to buy that dark gold grade one, how come all three are sold out?!"

"Wait! Look at the categories! Silver... Bronze... all gone! Even the Iron inventory is zero!"

"Holy crap! The trading platform is bugged?!"

"..."

With a few gasps of surprise, more and more people noticed the unusual situation.

The previously noisy hall instantly erupted into chaos.

"It's not a bug! Someone bought it! The transaction record is still scrolling!"

"What's going on? Everything was swept clean? How many credits are those?!"

"Are you crazy?! Millions of credits just thrown in like that?! Is this some kind of lifespan being used to buy something?!"

"Which big spender did this? Can't they leave us ordinary players a chance to survive?!"

"..."

……

The second floor of the trading building, a high-class quiet private room.

The soundproofing array here can completely block out the noise from the lobby on the first floor.

Su Chen locked the door, sat down on the sofa, and dumped all the storage bags he had just bought onto the coffee table in front of him.

slam-la-

Thousands of skill stones were piled up to form a small mountain that shimmered with colorful light.

The vast majority of them were low-grade items that emitted a faint white and blue light, interspersed with dozens of dazzling gold pieces, and the three deep dark gold pieces at the very top.

Su Chen picked up the three dark gold-grade skill stones and crushed them without hesitation.

[Using one Advanced Skill Stone (Dark Gold grade), Awakening failed; no new skill was learned this time!]

[Using one Advanced Skill Stone (Dark Gold grade), Awakening failed; no new skill was learned this time!]

【…】

Su Chen didn't even blink when he saw the three gray notification boxes pop up in front of him.

Trying to get a good item with just three Dark Gold items is indeed a low probability.

He placed his hands directly on the pile of skill stones, and with a thought, began to consume gold and silver level stones in batches.

[Using one Advanced Skill Stone (Gold Grade), Awakening failed; no new skill was learned this time!]

[Using one Advanced Skill Stone (Silver Grade), Awakening failed; no new skill was learned this time!]

【…】

……

As the skill petrified into puffs of magical dust and dissipated, the system's cold, detached notifications echoed repeatedly in Su Chen's mind like a death knell.

In less than two minutes, the gold and silver light on the coffee table had completely disappeared, leaving only a large pile of bronze and iron-grade stones.

Su Chen's face began to darken.

No, isn't the drop rate a bit too low?

More than 300 stones were thrown down, and more than 40 gold-grade stones and three dark gold-grade stones didn't even make a splash.

He stubbornly selected all the remaining few thousand low-level skill stones.

[Awakening failed after using 1 Intermediate Skill Stone (Bronze Grade). No new skill was learned this time!]

【…】

Ten minutes later.

The coffee table was completely empty, not even a crumb remained.

Nearly three million credits, and all that was heard was a bang.

Su Chen leaned back on the sofa, staring at the last glaring "Awakening Failed" message, utterly speechless.

The sunlight is so bright.

This probability is much higher than the second game scam in my previous life.

But despite the complaints, the skills still need to be learned.

The strength of the SSS-rank hidden class is undeniable; its previous skills were already so powerful, so this time its skills are bound to be equally overpowered.

Su Chen stood up, pushed open the door of the private room, and went back down the stairs to the lobby on the first floor.

The atmosphere in the hall had not completely calmed down, and many people were still discussing the empty skill stone inventory screen.

Ignoring the stares around him, Su Chen walked straight to the service counter where he had just been.

The senior student behind the counter was checking the transaction details of the huge deal when she saw Su Chen return. Startled, she quickly stood up: "Junior Su Chen? Is there a problem? If the skill stone's grade is incorrect, it's generally not accepted once sold..."

"This is not a return."

Su Chen interrupted her, slamming his student card on the table again. "Excuse me, senior, could you please post a request for me?"

"Huh? Oh... okay."

The senior student breathed a sigh of relief and brought up the screen again. "Want to post hope Yao's request?"

"Buying skill stones of all grades at high prices, no quantity limit."

Su Chen stated his terms in a calm tone: "The purchase price will be 20% higher than the current guidance price in the trading system."

"What?!"

The senior student's fingers, which were about to type, froze in mid-air. Her eyes widened as she stared at Su Chen. "A 20% increase? Junior, do you know that skill stones are already at a premium because you cleared out your inventory?"

"Another 20% markup? That's a total rip-off... Ugh, this premium is way too high!"

Su Chen tapped the table: "It's okay, just issue them this way. The credits will be deducted directly from my card. I'll make up the difference if I don't have enough!"

He refuses to believe in superstitions today.

Since the probability is low, we should use a large number of samples.

With enough money, even with a probability of 0.0001, he can still break through it!
