The Double Drop Buff Surviving The Endless Ocean novel Chapter 136

Chapter 136

Leeanne’s eyes flashed as she patted Snowy. “You’ve got sharp ears. Keep listening, and if you hear anything, let me know right away.”

With that, she opened up the Local Chat.

Sure enough, Robin was at it again, trying to buy the Teleport Card.

Robin: [Hey, anyone know whose Teleport Card is in the trading hall? I’m looking to buy. Name your price!]

Spike: [Robin, seriously, how many times are you gonna ask? No one’s answering you because they don’t want to sell it to you!]

Ellery: [Yeah, nobody wants to deal with you. You’re such a jerk!]

Robin and Max were hiding behind a rock, about to explode with anger.

Ever since they’d arrived in District 33, Spike and Ellery had found themselves a backer and were getting bolder by the day. Every time Robin said something in the Local Chat, those two would jump in to mock him.

But Robin kept pretending to be the bigger person and never fired back.

Robin didn’t have time to worry about any of that right now. A few wild wolves were prowling nearby, their sharp eyes sweeping over every bush and rock, like they’d picked up on something unusual.

Robin didn’t dare make a sound.

Whether it was Local Chat or private messages, voice or text could be used. Earlier, Robin had been so anxious that he’d used voice chat, but now, with the wolves creeping closer, he didn’t even dare to move. He quickly closed his chat screen.

Leeanne glanced at the trading hall and saw that the high–priced Teleport Card was still up for grab, with Robin leaving a bunch of messages underneath it.

Anyone could tell Robin was totally desperate now.

Leeanne checked her two Teleport Cards. One had already been used once, with one use left, and the other was brand new.

After thinking for a moment, Leeanne jumped into Local Chat and said, “Selling a Teleport Card that’s already been used once. Name your price!”

Spike: [Leeanne, why sell your Teleport Card? You should keep it!]

Ellery: [Yeah, Leeanne, that Teleport Card is worth more than gold. You can’t just sell it away!]

Leeanne: [Chill, I’m just checking what people are willing to pay. If the price isn’t right, I’m not selling.]

Emmett: [Wait, you have a Teleport Card? Let me buy it!]

Leeanne: [Emmett, didn’t you forget you still owe me something?]

Emmett: [Oh come on, I already paid you back… Wait, actually, maybe I still owe you something.]

Robin’s eyes were red with frustration. With the wolves so close, he didn’t dare make a sound. He quickly typed: [I want it!]

Spike: [Me! I want it!]

Ellery: [Me too! Me too! I want it too!]

Leeanne: [Quit just talking and make an offer already. I’m busy, and if no one comes up with something good. I’m outta here.]

Robin, feeling cornered, quickly typed out, “A blueprint for deer–hide boots, a Power Spirit Fruit, and an Advanced weapon blueprint.”

His fingers moved slowly across the keyboard, careful not to make any noise as he typed.

Leeanne got a private message from Spike: “Leeanne, want me to help raise the price for you?”

Leeanne gave a small smile. “Sure!”

She’d listed the Teleport Card mainly to get Robin’s items, and having someone help drive up the price was even better. She added, “Just bid as you like. When I tell you to stop, you stop.”

Spike: [Alright, Leeanne! Just sit back and watch me stir things up!]

Leeanne paused for a moment.

Spike suddenly piped up, “Oh, then I’ll add a necklace that gives +2 Constitution!”

Leeanne: “Alright, Spike’s got the highest bid.”

Robin was getting desperate. “Leeanne, +2 Strength is way better than 2 Constitution! How is Spike’s bid the highest?”

Leeanne replied, “I’ve got plenty of Strength already. I don’t really need any more.”

Robin stayed quiet.

Max was watching the chat too, and he was furious. “Boss, is Leeanne doing this on purpose?”

Robin gritted his teeth.

He’d already realized Leeanne was deliberately playing him.

He wasn’t dumb. He knew the Spanglers and Leeanne were working together.

But he was backed into a corner. Even if it was a scam, he had no choice but to go for it. At worst, he’d take a huge loss, but if he didn’t, he might not make it out alive.

The wild wolves were still outside, eyeing him hungrily.

Robin sighed. He finally figured out what Leeanne was really after.

Honestly, he’d suspected it from the beginning, but he just couldn’t bring himself to give up the Advanced Pet Contract. So he kept hoping he could get lucky with something else.

Now, he was seriously regretting not biting the bullet earlier.

If he’d just used the Advanced Pet Contract from the start, he could’ve kept that necklace.

Leeanne was losing her patience, worried Bob might show up any second. She snapped, “Alright, I’m busy, let’s just get this over with. Spike, trade now!”

Robin was startled and quickly blurted out, “Wait! I’ll add an Advanced Pet Contract!”

As soon as he said that, the chat channel exploded.

[Wait, something’s off here. Robin’s getting totally screwed. He used to be able to trade the same stuff for a Teleport Card with two charges, but now he can only get one?]

[Seriously, can you even do math? With what he had before, he couldn’t even get a single–use Teleport Card, and now he’s throwing in a necklace too!]

[Damn, I totally miscalculated. Robin’s getting absolutely fleeced!]

[Leeanne used her Teleport Card once and now she’s walking away with even more loot. Man, that’s savage!]

[Hey, if both sides are willing, how’s that dirty?]

[Dirty? Robin’s getting totally ripped off here! Why do you think Leeanne suddenly decided to sell her Teleport Card? She knows Robin’s desperate!)
