Chapter 230 Spoils (2)

Everyone else gnashed their teeth, but what else could be said? This was obviously the choice he was going to make.

"Fine. Who will take the next item then?" Phoenix asked.

"If no one wants it, then I-"

"Shut it Lone Wolf. You know I was only saying that as a courtesy. How are we going to split this up? We will have to use the same method to split up the loot later too." Phoenix snorted.

"Fine. Whatever. Whoever gets the first item will have to take the last item in the second round of selection." Lone Wolf said.

"That works with me. But who gets to take the selection now?" She asked.

"How about you guys draw lots?" Jake smiled.

"Who has the time to draw lots right now?" Phoenix glanced at Jake. She was no smiled anymore, and her eyes showed signs of irritation.

"This." Jake said as he took out a small device. He seemed to have a device for everything right now.

The device had a screen that had a few blanks.

"Whoever taps on the screen will get a number. Whoever gets number one gets the first pick. And you can keep going until you get to number three. That will decide the order." Jake said.

"Obviously, the first one to tap the screen isn't going to get number one. So its up to your luck." Jake smiled and said.

He then looked at Lone Wolf. Knowing how he acted till now, Jake knew that Lone Wolf would do this first.

"I know you rigged it somehow. How am I to trust you?" He said as he jumped forward and tapped on the screen.

The screen lit up, and an animation appeared. A small tiger jumping up and down, before turning around, to reveal the number that Lone Wolf got.

"Aha! I knew it! I knew you would trick me somehow. See, I got a- Wait, I got number one?" Lone Wolf stopped mid way, confused at the number he had just drawn.

"Who wants to go next?" Jake looked at Lucius and Phoenix.

"Fine, I'll go." Phoenix sighed as she tapped on the screen as well.

The same animation appeared, and this time, the tiger turned to reveal the number three.

"And that defaults Lucius to number two. So then, you guys can take what you have, and I will draw my item at the end of the second round of picking items." Jake said.

Lone Wolf was still in an embarrassing daze. He was the one complaining till now, and yet he was the one who got the first pick.

"I will pick the rare sword. I can use a few of these to give away to my people." Lone Wolf sighed.

It wasn't a bad weapon, one that could actually be of some use. The quality of the items that dropped here were not bad. They just weren't good enough for the guild leaders here to spend so much time discussing.

"I will take the rare material, the gold ore." Lucius said.

"And I will take the rare pendant, as well as the common grade blueprint." Phoenix said, looking away. The common grade blueprint was barely worth anything.

Unlike the named sets, the common blue prints gave almost no income streams, because people stopped caring about common grade items.

Players wanted rare items, at the least. Who was going to spend money on cheap common items?

"The shield. That looks a little interesting." Lucius said.

"And I will take the cloak."

It was finally Jake' s turn. One more item that could be his to have, and that was all for this loot distribution for him.

"I'll take that key." Jake said as he bent down to pick up a rusty looking key. He pocketed it and nodded at the three guild leaders.

"A pleasure doing business with you. Once you guys are done, and once everyone else is done picking up the loot, we can proceed further. Unlike this loot, distributing the loot that everyone just collected will take some time, so let us do that later." Jake said.

"Alright. That makes sense. Even this loot wasn't that great, for us to come here and argue about who gets what item." Phoenix nodded.

"Indeed." Jake smiled as he chuckled inside.

With the money that these people had, they could easily stock up on really good epic items. But the problem remained that epic items were epic items, and that they were to scarce.

Only Jake knew where they were. Only he knew that just about anyone could bid on epic items if they went to the forbidden street.

But he wasn't just going to reveal it right away. He decided he was not going to be the one to give away the cheat to the rest of the world.

Jake started walking away, back to where he was supposed to go.

Myriad Arrows looked at Jake, rubbing his hands. By the time Jake got to him, he was salivating.

"So then, what loot did the wolf king drop? Anything of interest?" He asked.

"Here. See for yourself." Jake threw the pendant that he picked up toward Myriad Arrows.

"An epic item? I knew it. A beast of that caliber was bound to drop at least one epic item." Myriad Arrows nodded as he looked at the item's features.

"This is an interesting skill. We might be able to use it right now, even. But does it have any restrictions?" Myriad Arrows asked.

"I don't know. Try it for yourself. The pendant's yours." Jake shrugged.

"Really?" Myriad Arrows' eyes shone.

"Do you want me to take it back? There are so many others that will get on the ground and beg me for it." Jake said.

"I want it. I want it." Myriad Arrows quickly put the pendant away.

"Good then." Jake chuckled.
