Reincarnation Paradise-Chapter 905: Healer

In the attribute enhancement cabin, Su Xiao tried clenching his fists. The sound of cracking knuckles filled the room, making him feel like he could tear anything apart with his bare hands.

Having four attributes at 80 points was extremely rare among contractors: only some developed two attributes simultaneously and three or four.

But Su Xiao, being a lone hunter, needed comprehensive abilities. Eventually, he would encounter enemies that countered him, making survival unlikely. This was why he chose to enhance all four attributes simultaneously.

Checking his storage space, Su Xiao decided to sell some equipment. Holding a "healing staff," he wondered if he could sell this oddly shaped item. Its female-only requirement limited its buyer pool. In the crowded marketplace, would any soft-hearted healer buy this? The embarrassment of using it would be overwhelming for most.

"Maybe... there are some open-minded healers out there," Su Xiao sighed and strolled towards the trading market.

...

At the trading market, the place was bustling with people. Disputes over prices frequently erupted between employees and contractors, causing quite a commotion.

Some contractors leisurely strolled through the market, pausing occasionally when they saw items they liked. The longer a contractor had been in Reincarnation Paradise, the more relaxed they appeared. They were used to daily battles and occasional brushes with death. The contractors with hurried steps and tense expressions were mainly newcomers.

Su Xiao navigated through the crowd to a more secluded spot in the market. This quieter area was better suited for the items he planned to sell.

He intended to sell two pieces of equipment: "White Lady" and "Black Gentleman."

While they seemed like a matching set, they were only similar in their original purposes. White Lady was a healing staff, and Black Gentleman was an attack staff, with the former being far more valuable.

Short-staff weapons were very niche. Despite being light gold quality, Su Xiao set Black Gentleman's price at 120,000 Paradise Coins.

Sometimes, the equipment price depends on quality and specific abilities, type, and user base.

Black Gentlemen was in a very niche category. He was selling it for a high price, which required luck. Considering the number of merchant employees, a lower price increased the chances of a sale.

White Lady's three attributes—enhanced healing, gender-specific healing effects, and +5 Charm—were priced at 280,000 Paradise Coins. This was not cheap for a light gold healing staff, especially given its embarrassing design.

Setting up his stall, Su Xiao took out a tablet and played a puzzle game. The difficulty of this game was absurdly high, making it a favorite pastime. Xia, who had recommended it, had long given up after only completing about a third of it.

Su Xiao found the game's difficulty manageable. Initially, it wasn't a game but a professional tool for training logical analysis skills, later modified by a contractor into a puzzle game. The contractor once boasted that anyone who completed the game would see him livestream chopping off his manhood.

Over time, Su Xiao realized the game sharpened his logical analysis skills while entertaining and relaxing.

"Hey, bro, this staff..."

A voice interrupted. Su Xiao didn't look up.

"Wait a minute."

After a moment, Su Xiao put away the tablet.

"This short staff is nice. How about 100,000 Paradise Coins?"

"Deal."

"Huh—"

Su Xiao's straightforward response surprised the young buyer, making him suspect something was wrong.

After multiple checks to ensure no issues, the young man paid and bought the oddly shaped short staff.

"This thing is a cute girl killer."

The short staff twirled in the young man's hand, indicating his satisfaction with the purchase.

As two light gold items were at the stall, a dozen contractors had gathered around, though most were there to watch the spectacle rather than buy.

White Lady was an excellent healing staff, but its design was too embarrassing. Under the gaze of many, most healers wouldn't dare approach to inquire about it.

Healers had a different temperament from most contractors. In Reincarnation Paradise, it was said that out of ten healers, nine were soft-hearted, and the other one was even softer.

Healers didn't need to engage in close combat. Over 99% were part of adventuring groups, protected by teammates during battles. Their gentle nature, combined with their role's unique demands, meant only those naturally kind and caring would choose such a self-sacrificing role.

An adventuring group leader once remarked, "Every healer is an angel with broken wings. If you have a healer by your side, cherish her."

Of course, Bubuwang was an exception. Its survival ability was even more potent than Su Xiao's.

Given their naturally gentle and protected disposition, how could healers have thick skins?

Su Xiao hadn't interacted much with healing contractors. He only fought one "healer" contractor—a scythe-wielding man who could fight, tank, heal, and buff himself. This "crazy healer," a vital member of the Divine Emperor adventuring group, operated under the principle, "I can fight better than you, so why should I heal you? Get lost."

After half an hour, no healer had come to inquire about the staff despite a group of soft-looking girls lingering nearby. Judging by their attire and demeanor, they were healers, hesitating due to the staff's unique design.

"Ladies and gentlemen," Su Xiao spoke, glancing at the dozen or so "deadbeats" around his stall, "None of you can use this thing, so... stop crowding around and let me do business."

Su Xiao spoke with a smile. In Reincarnation, Paradise's safe zone, showing killing intent was useless.

"We like standing here. Well... it does seem to matter to you."

A burly man with an open collar and hairy chest chuckled and walked away.

"Such thin skin. Other than healers, no one else in Reincarnation Paradise has this temperament."

Another contractor, not wanting to miss the fun, walked away. Soon, others realized there was no more entertainment and dispersed as well.
