Chapter 672: Agnes's Invitation

To be fair, Lilith's advice is very tempting to ordinary people.

After all, after being transformed into 'digital life', as long as the virtual space still exists, one can obtain a lifespan that is almost equivalent to 'eternal life'.

But for Amber, the temptation was not as great as for others.

Because this not only crosses the 'species', but also detaches from the real world, making Amber feel unreal.
Therefore, unless one day he has to sit on a device like a 'golden toilet' to sustain his life, he will not transform himself into a 'digital life'.

After thinking for a moment, Amber shook her head and said, "Forget it. Let's use the method of transformation into 'digital life' as the last resort. After all, digital life still has many limitations at this stage, and the Atlas Group cannot be led by a 'ghost' in a virtual space."

Lilith was certainly not surprised by Amber's answer. If it was so easy to persuade Amber to transform into a 'digital life', she would have succeeded long ago and would not have waited until now.

So she quickly skipped the topic and said, "So what are you going to do now? Do you need me to help you sort out the information about human life extension?"

"No need." Amber shook her head. "We already know the most promising thing for prolonging human life."

"what?"

"Eternal Cells. But now this thing has been taken away by the old emperor of the Star Dragon Empire. We can't get it for the time being. We can only wait for the opportunity and find another way."

Before Lilith could say anything in response to Amber's answer, a request for access to communications rang from Amber's personal terminal.

"Viscount Basf? Why are you suddenly looking for me at this time?"

Amber looked at the communication request on his personal terminal with some surprise. After a moment, he answered the call. Soon he heard the hearty laughter of the imperial baron.

"Hahaha, Lord Amber, I have good news for you!"

"Oh? What surprise is the Baron going to bring me?" Amber's tone also became cheerful. He had to admit that Viscount Bassof was indeed impeccable in terms of "infectiousness".

"Your Highness Agnes hopes to meet you in person to discuss in detail the further cooperation between our two sides."

At this point, Viscount Basf's tone could not help but become a little excited, and he added a little anxiously:

"Mr. Amber, I can tell you in advance that this exchange on in-depth cooperation between the two parties is definitely an unprecedented big business for the Atlas Group!"

"Yo, big business?"

The corners of Amber's mouth curled up. For the Atlas Group, which had just ended a series of wars, it really needed a "sucker". Oh no, it needed a "good man" to recover its blood.

"It's a real big deal! It's just what you want, Mr. Amber!" Viscount Basf said excitedly. Even without starting the video call, Amber could imagine the smiling face of this big imperial businessman.

Amber had no objection to the princess's wish for a face-to-face meeting. Besides, the princess had just helped him a lot, so he certainly couldn't refuse her face at this time. So he thought for a moment and said, "In that case, I will obey your order. Where will you arrange for me to meet Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

"Sir Amber, such a distinguished guest, will naturally be arranged in the imperial capital of Saint Saunière. Her Royal Highness the Princess will entertain you in her villa, and Sir Amber will also be able to take in the elegance of our Star Dragon Empire's imperial capital~"
-
As the old saying goes, when you feel sleepy, someone will bring you a pillow. Amber was still thinking about how to deal with the "eternal cells" one second ago, and the next second Princess Agnes invited her to the imperial capital Saint-Saunière for a meeting.

Amber had heard about the "villa" arranged by the other party this time. In the previous life's game, a player had visited the ruins of this "villa" in a hidden quest chain. According to the information revealed at that time, this place was not far from the Grand Palace of the Imperial Capital. It was said that Princess Agnes often rested in this villa after each audience with the old emperor.

In other words, this is a rare opportunity to get close to the Grand Palace.

To be honest, after hearing the location of the interview, Amber really had the idea of ​​going to the Grand Palace to "explore".

But he also knew that this was by no means an easy matter. He went to the meeting at the invitation of Agnes. Regardless of whether he had the opportunity and time to act alone, even if he had the time and opportunity, how to sneak into the Grand Palace was also a problem.

This is not an ordinary tourist attraction. This is the capital of the Star Dragon Empire, where the royal family of the Star Dragon Empire resides. It is also the most heavily guarded area in the entire empire. Theoretically, there is no possibility of sneaking in.

But Amber did not want to waste this hard-earned opportunity. After all, it was not easy to enter Saint Saunière even on normal days. Just like the capital planet of the Federation, as the capital planet of the Star Dragon Empire, Saint Saunière was also surrounded by orbital defense platforms, so even orbital parachuting, the most commonly used method to sneak into the planet, would be difficult to succeed.

Thinking of this, Amber felt that she still needed to plan carefully. If she had the opportunity to leave the villa and sneak into the Grand Palace during the negotiation with Agnes, she must seize it.

In order to achieve this, conventional infiltration methods and equipment are definitely not feasible. The only way is to see if there is any breakthrough after reaching the sixth level of psychic power strength.

The only people Amber could think of who could help her in this regard were Saleh and Ellenita.

The former, as a deacon of the Forerunner Think Tank, knows a lot of psychic skills that humans have not mastered, and maybe he can get some skills from her that can help with the infiltration. The latter, as a wealthy elf woman, can also get some elven equipment like Amber did when she infiltrated the Isabel family's fiefdom. Compared to the equipment that humans have already figured out, maybe they can make some new discoveries by trying their luck in the Thousand Star Empire.

Not long after, Amber reappeared at the door of Saleh's laboratory.

Saleh was a little surprised to see Amber coming back. She asked Amber to find a place to sit down and rest, and asked, "Why, are your symptoms getting worse?"

"Pfft, ptff, ptff, what do you mean by 'the symptoms are serious'? Can't you say something nice?" Amber sat down on the sofa speechlessly, "Do you have any psychic skills or techniques that can be used for infiltration?"

"What do you want to do?"

"I want to extend my life."
