Chapter 249 Arena Teleportation Scroll
Lu Youyou briefly told her about a novel she had once read, a story about a female protagonist who was tortured both emotionally and physically by the male protagonist, but ultimately had a happy ending.
[Gossip Girl: What? Is this guy still alive? If he is, you have to tell me his personal information, I want to eat him alive!]
[Lu Youyou: She's already dead. By the way, can you answer my question from before?]
[Gossip Girl: Since you shared gossip with me, I'll tell you this: as the rain gets heavier and the ice gets thicker, who will be able to tell if there's a road or a monster underneath?]
[Gossip Girl: I really enjoy chatting with you. You absolutely have to stay alive and tell me more stories! You'd better have some navigation gadgets ready.]
[Gossip Girl: Ugh, I'm so sleepy, I'm going to bed. I hope you're still alive when I ask you for gossip again next time.]
The gossipy girl didn't want to chat anymore, so Lu Youyou deleted the message she had already typed in the chat box.
She went to the driver's seat and looked at the dashboard.
The icy road outside did not affect the navigation system's judgment; the map on the dashboard still showed that the vehicle was on the highway and had not deviated from its direction.
Lu Youyou breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed the navigation system could pinpoint the location of the highway.
She posted the message in the gang group, causing a huge uproar.
[Li Jinyue: Oh no! The monster merchant sold it before, but I thought it was too expensive and didn't buy it. Now when I check, the price has doubled. I can't afford it at all.]
[Wang Tu: I don't have navigation either. I've always driven during the day and slept at night. Even though the polar night has arrived, I'm still following my previous schedule.]
Sun Niao: I don't have navigation either.
【…】
Lu Youyou counted that there were 10 people in the gang who did not have navigation.
She first told those without navigation to stop where they were. Anyway, the gang had a teleportation function, so as long as they didn't leave their vehicles, they could be teleported immediately if they encountered danger.
Next, she went to talk to the monster merchant privately.
The smart navigation devices sold in the monster merchant's shop are too expensive; even with a 50% discount, they still cost 50,000 gold coins each.
She wanted to see if privately messaging the monster merchant would offer a discount.
As Lu Youyou waited anxiously, the monster merchant sent a message.
[Monster Merchant: You're my friend, so of course I'll give you a discount, but I also have to pay for my goods. As my friend, you wouldn't want me to not make any money, would you?]
[Lu Youyou: What's the cheapest price you can get?]
[Monster Merchant: To be honest, the minimum is 38888 gold coins, but there's a quantity requirement; you need to buy at least 5.]
Lu Youyou took a screenshot of what the monster merchant said and posted it in the gang group.
[Lu Youyou: I don't know if you have any discounts. If not, give me the gold coins, and I'll send them to you after I buy them.]
As soon as the news came out, six people handed over their gold coins to Lu Youyou.
There were still dead people left to hand over, which happened to be Li Jinyue and her three good friends.
Lu Youyou specifically messaged Li Jinyue privately to ask about the situation.
[Lu Youyou: Are you and your girlfriends going to buy a GPS navigator? If not, just let me know, or I won't wait for you.]
[Li Jinyue: I'm sorry, guild leader, we used up the little gold we had to buy things, and now the four of us can't even afford a navigation device. Why don't you stop waiting for us and just buy it for the others, so they don't get impatient.]
[Lu Youyou: Okay.]
Lu Youyou found the monster merchant's shop again, and it had already changed its prices.
If you purchase more than five smart navigation devices, the price will automatically become 38888 per device.
She increased the number of navigation items to 6, then thought about it and added 2 more, making it 8.
First, six were sent to the members according to the list, and then Lu Youyou gave the remaining two smart navigation devices to Li Jinyue.
[Li Jinyue: Guild Leader? Actually, we don't need navigation. We can just stay where we are and teleport wherever we want to go.]
[Lu Youyou: If you don't drive, you won't encounter treasure chests by the roadside. Don't you all want them? You four sisters, pair up, and you decide who installs the navigation system and leads the car.]
[Li Jinyue: But taking the gang leader's smart navigation for free, especially two of them, is really embarrassing.]
[Lu Youyou: Don't be shy, I need your loyalty to the gang.]
On the other end of the watch, Li Jinyue looked at the message Lu Youyou sent, her eyes stinging with tears.
She held up her watch to show her three sisters what Lu Youyou had posted, and only spoke after they had all read it.
"The test has been conducted. From now on, you are not allowed to suspect that the gang leader treats new members and old members differently."
Wang Rongrong felt a little guilty; she was being too suspicious.
She was worried that the four sisters, as new members, would not be valued by Lu Youyou and would only be used as human shields in battles against other gangs, so she came up with this idea.
Pretend none of the four of them have smart navigation, and borrow 38888 gold coins from Lu Youyou to see if she's willing.
Before they could even figure out how to ask Lu Youyou for help, they received two smart navigation devices from her.
It was given, not borrowed.
Lu Youyou performed even better than they expected.
Honestly, if she were the leader, she certainly couldn't be so selfless.
"Yueyue, how about... we give that teleportation scroll to the guild leader?" Wang Rongrong suggested.
Zhen Lu refused: "No way, those are the team rewards we got after the treasure hunt game. We can just find a chance to return the gold coins to the guild leader. How can we give such a precious thing to her?"
Ding Yuxin advised, "Lulu, we're not strong enough. We don't know when we'll be able to get in if we keep that scroll. Why don't we give it to the gang leader? If she succeeds, the gang will be even stronger, won't it?"
Zhen Lu took a deep breath: "Alright then, I just hope Lu Youyou isn't a hypocrite."
But then, new problems arose.
Li Jinyue looked at the two smart navigation devices in her backpack and was puzzled.
"The four of us have GPS navigation, so what about the other two?"
The four looked at each other and sighed in unison.
……
Lu Youyou was naturally unaware of their predicament. She simply hadn't expected that the two smart navigation devices she had casually bought would receive such a generous return gift.
Li Jinyue gave her a teleportation scroll.
