I glanced at the offering page wondering what to use as an offering. With an idea in mind, I placed a low-tier soul jade on the compact offering array, and soon another dialogue box popped up next to the compact array that read,

[Offering not enough to exchange for minimum services. Please offer a minimum of 1000 low-tier soul jades to get the minimum services of the inter-realm network.]

“Interesting,” I muttered to myself seeing the offering array recognize the low-tier soul jade I planned to offer to it and also estimated the worth of it in terms of its services. The valuation of low-tier soul jade was that I had to offer 1000 of those to get the minimum services of the inter-realm network.

Now that I knew I required a minimum of 1000 low-tier soul jades to use the inter-realm network I did not immediately pay the price to start using the inter-realm network because I wanted to check whether the value of the low-tier soul jade in the card world was equal to the value quoted by the Devil merchant code.

If not, was the low-tier soul jade valued more in the card world or the devil merchant code and what was the difference in the valuation? Also, can I find something else as a perfect offering, that was of low value in the card world but of high value in the devil merchant code?

This step was essential for me to determine a cheaper way for me to access the features of the devil merchant code because if I have to pay a minimum of 1000 low-tier soul jades every time I use any one of the devil merchant code’s features then I will most likely go broke pursuing a career as a demon merchant.

Thinking of this, next I planned to offer something that was valued as 1000 low-tier soul jades in the card world’s market to see if the devil merchant code’s market also valued its worth the same as 1000 low-tier soul jades. I planned to repeat this process with various items and ingredients to get an accurate set of data to conclude if there was a way for me to take advantage of the price differences between the two markets.

Thinking of this I first placed about 100 grams of the Phantom Sword Wood valued at 1000 low-tier soul jade in the card world market on the offering array, soon a dialogue box popped up reading,

(Yes/No)

Note: The demon merchant has to use 48 hrs of the inter-realm network availed by them within the validity period of a month or else it will expire.]

“No,” I removed the 1000 low-tier soul jade worth of phantom sword wood that I had placed on the array choosing not to go forward with the transaction. Then I placed 1000 low-tier soul jades on the offering array to check how much the mentioned minimum service was.please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

[Offering enough to use the inter-realm network for 24 hours with a validity period of 10 days. Do you want to proceed with the transaction?

(Yes/No)

Note: The demon merchant has to use 24hrs of the inter-realm network availed by them within the validity period of 10 days or else it will expire.]

“No,” Seeing that 1000 low-tier soul jades can get me 24 hrs of inter-realm network usage with 10 day validity period but 100 grams of the phantom sword wood worth a thousand low-tier soul jades in the card world could get me 48 hours of inter-realm network usage with a month validity period, I noted that there was a vast difference in the price of phantom sword wood in the two markets. The phantom sword wood was valued twice as much in the devil merchant code market than in the card world market.

The valuation of a certain item or ingredient in a market depends on the demand-supply of that item in said market. It appears the demand for the phantom sword wood in the devil merchant code market was larger than in the card world market or else the supply of the phantom sword wood in the devil merchant code market was low compared to that in the card world market. Either way, this helped me conclude that there was a way for me to take advantage of the difference in the price of the two markets to come up with a reasonable offering that would help get the maximum of the devil merchant code features.

Next, I placed 10 grams of low-tier blood rule stone worth 1000 low-tier soul jades in the card world market on the offering array to check how much it was worth in the devil merchant code market,

[Offering enough to use the inter-realm network for 24 hours with a validity period of a month. Do you want to proceed with the transaction?

(Yes/No)

Note: The demon merchant has to use 24 hours of the inter-realm network availed by them within the validity period of a month or else it will expire.]

“No,” I was surprised to see that the 10 grams of the low-tier blood rule stone were worth less than the 100 grams of the phantom sword wood in the devil merchant code market.

Then I placed a broken rune of water rule on the offering array, though it was worth a lot more than 1000 low-tier soul jades in the card market I wanted to see how much it was worth in the devil merchant code market,

[Offering not enough to get the minimum services. Please offer a minimum of 10 broken runes of water rule to get the minimum services of the inter-realm network.]

“Fuck me,” I blurted seeing that a broken rune of water rule was nearly worth 100 low-tier soul jades in the devil merchant market. I was starting to sense that rule-related items or ingredients were not worth much in the devil merchant market. I had yet to figure out if this was the same for all rule-related items or just a few.
