Hearing Gavin Ray's voice in his mind, Ashen stopped in his tracks in a hurry and stared at a Shard message in the air, which indicated that it was three connective Mechanical Intelligence Shards, spawned from the borders of the Ironclad Empire, Mechanical Intelligence Zone 14 .
Inside: 8900 Data Equivalent, Grade A Data Permission, 70% cracked, priced at 2000 Dylan Bits.
"Is this it?" Ashen asked in his mind.
"What else could it be, Mechanical Intelligence, Permission is pretty much cracked, this is enough to last you a good while." Gavin Ray said.
Listening to Gavin Ray's words, Ashen acted as if he didn't see the Mechanical Intelligence Shard's message, and walked with Nina casually into the store where the items were arranged in a very messy manner. The store was not big, and there was no service-driven Mechanoid, only a disabled person with Mechanical prosthetics on both legs and fake eyes.
Seeing someone walk in, the owner got up from behind the counter with great effort and said, "What's up! Can I get you anything, I personally fought back all the good stuff here!"
"Can this be cheaper?" Ashen asked as he spoke, gesturing to a Data Shard that sold for six thousand six hundred Dylan Bits.
"Little Brother! This won't do, it's a Data Shard with no Permission, Bro, I called it in from the Beast of Crystal, and had to kill myself to get it! Look at my leg, I lost it because of this! This six thousand six is really the cheapest." The owner spoke, patting his fake leg.
"Hey," Ashen sighed and looked at the other Data Shards again, they ranged in price from two and a half thousand Dylan Bits to tens of thousands of Dylan Bits.
After a while Ashen shook his head helplessly and walked out of the door, when he reached the door, he suddenly stopped and pointed at the Mechanical Intelligence core Shard that he had just looked at and asked, "What about this one? Can big brother give it cheaper?"
Worried that he was going to lose the business he had in hand, the boss didn't ask for the standard price, but just said, "Hey, tell me about this, how much do you think is appropriate?"
"Fifteen thousand, right? Think about it, after all, this Shard is three pieces, not one. Everything in your store is monolithic, it's the only one that's pieced together and has cracks, any pieced together with cracks has to be under a thousand, but it's because this one of yours is Mechanical that it can go up a bit." Ashen said.
Uh, I didn't expect to run into a connoisseur, and at such a young age, the boss was speechless in his mind.
He was counting in his mind, Ashen then said, "And, look at what you labeled with Permission! Now people do not have Permission, not so expensive ah!"
"Hey ...... line! Line! Fifteen hundred is fifteen, Little Brother is yours." As the boss spoke, Mechanical's fake eyes flashed a Bright Light, and he turned around and went back to bring the Mechanical Intelligence Shard to Ashen.
The bill was simply scratched, and Gavin Ray cackled in his mind, "Not bad, that's quite a bargain."
"It can't be helped, the poor man's Child is an early adopter! Besides that guy isn't even a Superpowered person , how could he go to the border of Ironclad Empire? Besides, now Data technology is so advanced, the restorative power of prosthetic limbs has long since made them the same as normal people, why would he need to be like that. At first glance, it's a Reseller , out to sell heroes and pity to make money!!!" Ashen said.

"Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Very observant! Not bad! Not bad!" Gavin Ray said.
"Anything else to buy next?" Ashen asked.
"These will suffice, especially this Mechanical Intelligence Shard, which is a three-piece splice, and is perfectly adequate!"
"Nina! Nina!"
Speaking with Gavin Ray, and Nina were just about to walk out of the Data Trading Center when a man's voice came from behind them. The two turned their heads to see a handsome-looking young man with long red hair and a very tall face.
The young man's eyes were fixed straight on Nina as he spoke, loving yet very rude at the same time.
Hmph, Dante.Ashen sneered in his heart, knowing that he was Jax's Brother , Skyward City's famous Trust Fund Baby.Of course Ashen knew him, as Jax's Brother , Dante was going to do things even more excessively than Jax.
He always thinks that his family is rich and he goes to Dylan Academy, so he will be a Superpowered person in the future. Therefore, he often spends a lot of money, and molests Missy after drinking. He drove a Skycraft across the tracks at excessive speeds, causing many deaths. If it wasn't for his family's connections and the money they spent to bail him out, he would have been finished long ago.
He's chased Nina before, but unlike other Missy's, Nina doesn't like his money, much less someone like him.
Realizing it was him, Nina frowned, her face cold and not wanting to say anything more to him. She just nodded politely at it and clutched Ashen's hand, wanting to leave quickly with him.
But that's when Dante's men blocked the doorway.
"Dante! What are you doing?" Confronted by Dante's henchman, Nina turned her head angrily and glared at her.
"Uh Nina sister, look, you came here to buy something right? That's just right, my family has opened a new store here, I can accompany you to shop!"
Dante spoke, his voice and expression full of devotion to Nina. A wave of nausea washed over Ashen as he watched him do this.
"Please don't call me sister, I'm not your sister! I only have one Brother and that's Ashen!" said Nina, raising her little face and leaning towards Ashen.
"Hey! Nina girl uh, well, Nina!"Dante was rarely refuted, but just loved Nina, so he forced himself to hold down the displeasure in his heart and said, "Ms. Nina, I have a Crystal Ring here, I think I can give it to you the last time..."
"Thank you! But I don't need it!" Without waiting for him to finish, Nina balked.
Dante was just about to speak when Ashen suddenly stepped in and said, "Bro, we appreciate your kindness, but Nina doesn't need this gift from you!"
He says and tries to drag Nina away, but Dante's men stop them.
"Oh! Ashen, are you a Loser who is about to revert to Blank, are you still going to turn over? Do you still have any fantasies about Nina? Oh, if she doesn't follow me, she can't be yours either, Loser!"
Dante spoke, gritting his teeth more and more.
"Oh I'm happier than you even if I'm a Loser because at least I'm Nina's Brother , do you know why Nina ignores you?" Hearing Dante call himself a Loser, Ashen smiled coldly and tit for tat. "Because my sister doesn't like scumbags, people who don't know their last name when they have a little money!"
"You little rascal! You want me to cripple you, don't you?" Being so STIMULATED by Ashen, Dante was very humiliated in front of his men.
He's been getting everything since he was a kid, and Missy's been taking the initiative to stick it to him, but Nina's just not interested. But when it comes to Nina, no matter how hard she tries, how she chases, Nina just isn't interested in herself, and she once sent her Younger Brother Jax to help her, but Nina doesn't even look at her Younger Brother in the eye.
"What's going on? What's going on?" The two sides were facing off when Toby Han suddenly appeared in front of them in his security uniform.
"What the hell do you care? You Blank," his henchman interjected before Dante could speak.
"Of course it's none of our business, but we have the power to notify the center's Superpower security team, do you need them?" Toby Han was certainly no match for them, but the Market Center had hired High-Tier Esper in the early stages of its construction to keep Superpowered persons from causing trouble.
All of these Superpowered person's Levels were above Data Formula Tier 4, and cleaning up these people was like playing. That's why when they heard Toby Han say this, the people under Dante's command didn't say anything. They knew that the Superpowered persons employed by these market centers were the ones who were authorized to kill people directly without caring about the consequences. When the time comes, even their boss, Dante's Father can't protect them.
"Hmph, Ms. Nina, you Loser Brother , the money to buy things comes out of Pawning! He's poor like this and you're still interested in him, it's really out of my expectation!" As Dante said that and turned to leave, he added to Ashen, "By the way, that Pawn Shop has just been bought by my family! I'm afraid with your Superpower, it's going to be hard for you to get your Pawned Item back! I'll ask my Younger Brother to bring it along and take a picture for you! Hahahahaha!"
Not expecting him to say that, Ashen's heart flared with anger and he walked up to him and locked eyes with him Threat said, "If you touch my grandfather's relics, I'll make sure that you and your Younger Brother get a taste of your own life!"
"Huh! Yeah? Then I'll be waiting oh Loser, me and my Younger Brother will be waiting for you!" Dante said and laughed out loud, leaving with his men.
Ashen was about to give chase but was stopped by Toby Han. Seeing Dante strutting away, Nina then walked up close to him, glaring at him with a reproachful look in her eyes, and yanked up his hand, "Brother! Let's go, let's go redeem your Pawned Item!"
