"One fold..."

Even with a 250,000-pound heavy exoskeleton, Su Li still couldn't afford it even with just one fold.

Where could he find 20,000 pounds of funds?

"Even if it's one fold, I still can't afford it!"

Hearing Su Li's words, Koensth laughed heartily. He was quite proud. In terms of wealth, the combined financial power of all the churches on the continent couldn't match the Steam and Machinery Church.

Although they were a new divine church, they were far from having the same amount of sealed items as the other established churches.

But in terms of technological inventions, they were already at the forefront of the entire era.

"There's no way around it. You should consider other exoskeleton devices."

Although the High God's envoy approved Su Li's purchase of the Black Crimson, the other party still had to come up with the money.

If the price of 25,500 pounds was announced to the entire Valerian continent, the major kingdoms would probably rush to buy it.

After all, this was the treasure hidden by the Steam and Machinery Church.

In a sense, it could already be considered an excellent extraordinary item, not just a simple mechanical device.

Su Li didn't object and said, "Tell me your conditions first."

Upon hearing Su Li's words, Koensth, the person in charge of the Steam and Machinery Church, said, "There are three conditions."

"The first condition is that in your lifetime, you must owe the Steam and Machinery Church three conditions. Under the witness of the gods, you must make a vow to help our church unconditionally three times."

Facing the first condition, Su Li almost didn't need to think and could agree immediately. However, he still had a question, "The Steam Church is wealthy and powerful. As a Sequence 8 minor extraordinary, what help can I provide to the church?"

Facing Su Li's question, Koensth smiled slightly and replied, "This is a rule of our Steam and Machinery Church. For the sale of strategic-level equipment, this condition must be attached."

"That's not a problem. As long as it doesn't make me betray the Church of the Night and doesn't endanger my life, I can agree."

Su Li gave a definite answer.

Koensth extended his second rough finger.

"The second condition is that any equipment purchased from our Steam Church at one fold price cannot be rented or resold. Once it is damaged, it must be returned. Our Steam Church can help you repair or recover the wreckage, but it must not be lost."

"A reasonable request." Su Li nodded and accepted.

Koensth extended his third finger and said leisurely, "The third condition is that from now on, you cannot leave this room. If you want to buy anything, you need to exchange it with your own money or items."

"Of course, when we purchase your items, we will offer a fair price."

"Any amount is fine?" Su Li asked.

"Any amount is fine, as long as you can leave in one go." Koensth smirked.

Su Li underestimated the cunningness of this old thing.

If it weren't for the third condition, he would have gone directly to the Pope of the Church of the Night and obtained the funds to buy everything here.

"Let the messenger bring me the money."

"Of course, as long as your messenger can enter."

Koensth said with a smile.

Without saying a word, Su Li directly took out a gold coin and flicked it out.

The result...

The gold coin didn't land in Melin Alyssa's hands as he had imagined, but fell to the ground.

Su Li was momentarily stunned, but then he realized.

After all, this was the military stronghold of the Steam and Machinery Church.

If spiritual creatures from the Spirit World wanted to come, they wouldn't even need to pay for the weapons.

Thinking of this, Su Li decided to trick the Steam Church.

He took out a blood-red gemstone from his pocket and placed it directly in front of Koensth, asking, "How much can this be sold for?"

Koensth widened his eyes. He didn't expect Su Li to actually bring a treasure.

Bloodstone.

Even in the entire Valerian continent, it was a priceless treasure.

Koensth's mouth twitched slightly as he slowly said, "One Black Crimson Battle Armor."

"Huh? How come I heard that if this gem is handed over to any church, it can receive a reward of 100,000 pounds?!"

The latter didn't hesitate and said with a sneer, "Indeed, that's the price outside, but it doesn't include our Steam and Machinery Church."

"You should know that we have the most mineral resources on the entire continent. Although bloodstones are rare, almost any member of our Steam Church can obtain one."

A big deal, a real big deal.

No wonder the members of the Steam Church outside could drive the giant knights and guardian exoskeletons.

It turned out that bloodstones were just standard in the relatively weak Steam Church in terms of sequence.

Su Li had no objections to this.

After all, to him, the bloodstone was just an external object. It was cost-effective to exchange it for a Black Crimson.

"Deal!"

Su Li pushed the bloodstone towards Koensth.The other party didn't beat around the bush. The God's envoy had already instructed that Su Li could receive a set of Black Crimson. As Koensth, who was responsible for receiving VIPs, giving Su Li this set of Black Crimson for the price of a bloodstone was a surefire profitable deal for him.

"Let's go. Follow me to the third floor."

The two of them then stepped into the elevator and ascended to the Treasure Pavilion of the Steam and Machinery Church.

This place was not open to ordinary VIPs.

Entering the luxurious elevator, the three of them arrived at the third floor covered with red carpet.

It was different from the heavy exoskeleton display racks on the first floor.

All the weapons here were stored in protective shields with barriers.

Not only that, in the center of the entire exhibition hall, there were three huge display cabinets.

At the forefront was a huge white, blue, and red mech, standing five meters tall, exuding the unique violent aesthetic of heavy exoskeleton machinery.

Next to it, there were two other mechs.

One was entirely black, with sharp edges and corners, and the head was intricately carved like a towering tyrant.

Mechanical war blades hung on both sides of the mech, and the wrist joints were handled with great detail.

Behind the exoskeleton device was a cylindrical thruster, with four pairs of small metal tail wings on both sides.

The other one was completely golden armor, looking more like the traditional armor worn by heavy knights, with a spear of impact in the left hand and a rectangular cross-patterned shield in the right hand.

Su Li was immediately drawn to the all-black exoskeleton device.

As Koensth opened the protective shield, the Black Crimson, under his control, slowly knelt on one knee and opened its back.

"The operation is very simple, you just need to insert your feet like putting on boots, then insert your arms into the arm guards, stand up straight, and you can close the armor."

Su Li, like a child with a new toy, put on the Black Crimson under Koensth's guidance.

Accompanied by a series of clicking sounds, the entire heavy exoskeleton device began to adjust and fit Su Li's body.

He stood upright, and the back plate immediately closed completely.

"Not bad, this Black Crimson suits you well."

Koensth said with a smile.
