Swallow the Starry Sky, I, Vinina, will never be inferior to others

Chapter 53 Protection Fees

Vinina, who was in the Thunder World, naturally had no idea what was happening in the outside world. After entering the world within the world, she immediately stayed away from the crowd and asked Babata to use the small detector disassembled from the Meteorite to start searching for cosmic crystals and thunder stones.

Soon, they found a place.

Quickly drill into the ground.

The surface layer of the soil structure was easily broken through under Vinina's feet. It took Vinina less than half an hour to completely dig through the soil structure layer as deep as two thousand meters.

But the rock structure further down gave him a headache. Although the rocks here were harder than those in the Fenglei Canyon outside, they were not easy to break through. If he dug slowly and clumsily, it would probably take at least a day to dig through.

Fortunately, Vinina has an easier solution.

Moyun vine!
The stellar-level Moyun vine can easily stretch tens of thousands of meters, so it is naturally most suitable for this kind of work. With the red mixed copper mother as the 'tip cone', the slender vine quickly lengthens and drills down. In just about twenty minutes, it successfully dug out a passage leading to the cosmic crystal storage area from Vinina's position.

Babata quickly put it into the storage space.

Then he ordered some small robots to break down the large amount of cosmic crystals into regular cubes, and finally determined the amount: 7000 cubes!
Converted into Qianwu coins, that’s more than 20 billion!
Excitement instantly appeared on Vinina's face, and then she rushed to the ground like a cannonball, and then with the help of a small detector, she quickly found the second underground location where the cosmic crystal was.

Follow the same method and earn 5000 cubic cosmic crystals!

And while obtaining the cosmic crystal, he also got 180,000 thunder stones. Although Babata couldn't understand why Vinina wanted to collect such useless stones, he didn't interfere too much.

One place, two places, three places.
In the end, at the end of the day, Vinina dug out a total of 12,000 cubic cosmic crystals and 370,000 thunder stones.

The next day, 11,000 cubic cosmic crystals and 590,000 thunder stones.

Day 3, Day 4, Day 5
Vinina had a lot of fun digging.

It wasn't until the twelfth day that she felt something was wrong.

Why are there so few people in the world within the world?

The Thunder World is such a small place. Even if it is because of the regulations of the Universe Mercenary Alliance that adventurers participating in the assessment will be teleported to the edge of the Thunder World, they should have arrived in twelve days, right?
They are not alone!

There are millions of level nine stars, which can completely ignore the group of ferocious beasts in the Thunder World and fly directly over, but why is there no news yet?
It's impossible for Qinia to stop the ninth-level star-level who has signed up for the cosmic apprentice mercenary assessment, right?

Nine out of ten things are wrong.

It wasn't until Vinina tried to contact Tao Li that she got the answer to her question.
"The third army leader? Marquis Ziyu?"

In the virtual universe, Vinina looked at the burly old man on the screen with a dull look on her face.

What about teasing her?
This is just a treasure hidden by a peak realm master. Even if it is a bit rich, it shouldn't be enough to attract two immortal gods, right?

Moreover, she didn't know whether Zi Yuhou was granted a title of nobility, but the commander of the third legion of Qianwu Universe Kingdom was definitely granted a title of nobility!
"I can't understand it either."

Tao Li shook his head slightly: "This world within a world was created by a very famous world master in my Black Dragon Mountain Star Region tens of millions of years ago. His name is Kabu, also known as the Thunder World Master. He has very good luck and is considered extremely wealthy among the world masters, but there is no way he can attract the Third Army Master and Marquis Ziyu to come here."

"And the most important thing is that the Third Army Lord and Marquis Zi Yu came but did not enter the Thunder World. They just sat in front of the villa at the entrance of the Thunder World."

Speaking of this, Tao Li couldn't help but sigh. He was relatively close to Canglan Star at that time. When he learned that a world within a world appeared in the Thunder World, he rushed to Canglan Star almost immediately, thinking of getting a piece of the pie. But who knew that when he arrived, he saw two immortal gods sitting there.

Who dares to move this?

Later, he learned from Sanfushan that it was the Third Army Commander and Marquis Ziyu, so he dared not move.

After all, the Thunder World is an 'assessment world' recognized by the Universe Mercenary Alliance. Unless its status as an 'assessment world' is revoked, only stellar-level adventurers who have participated in the trainee mercenary assessment can enter. If they trespass without permission, it would be a violation of the alliance's regulations.

Although under normal circumstances, as long as the people in charge turn a blind eye, the regulations don’t really matter, the key is
The third military leader is affiliated with the Universe Mercenary Alliance!

Zi Yuhou is from the Chimei clan and is affiliated with the Giant Axe Fighting Arena.

At this point, let alone this group of realm masters and domain masters, even if the immortal ancestor of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire came, he would not dare to say anything. After all, they blatantly violated the regulations of the Universe Mercenary Alliance. Not to mention them, even if an immortal god came, he would be directly killed by the law enforcement team, his soul would be shattered and turned into nothingness!

At this point, Vinina finally understood why there weren't a large number of stars entering the Thunder World.

Things like taking advantage of loopholes can be done when the lower-level managers don't cooperate, but no one dares to do it in front of the high-level bosses, especially in the swallowing star sky where the weak are preyed upon by the strong, which aroused the disgust of the third army leader.
Want to know more about the materials used to make the coffin?
However, this question also made Tao Li seem to see that Vinina was in the Thunder World, and he asked:

"Are you in the 'world within the world' of Thunder now?"

"Yes!"

"That's a good thing. Don't think that no one dares to enter the Thunder World because of the Third Army Lord and Marquis Zi Yu, but they are important figures and will not affect us. There are a large number of cosmic-level people on Canglan Star, more than a hundred domain masters, and nearly ten realm masters!"

"Venina, tell me, if you came out of the Thunder World, how miserable would the outcome be?"

Tao Li looked at Vinina with a smile, and with his sturdy and strong figure, he looked like a strange old man who misled a child.

"Master Tao Li, I am a member of the Black Dragon Mountain branch of the Virtual Universe Company and am under the jurisdiction of Master Tao Li."

"Haha, that's right!"

Tao Li suddenly laughed out loud: "I know your strength. Although your realm is only the first level of the star level, you have a domain. Ordinary ninth level stars will be trampled under your hands. And you have seized the initiative. It can be said that there is a good hope for you to get the treasure."

"You also know that this is a treasure left behind by an extremely wealthy peak realm master. Even the realm master is coveting it. If you just let a little of it slip through, it would be enough to make a Territory Lord like me excited. What you can do is to give me the treasure that will make me excited after you get it!"

"Don't worry, I won't treat you badly."

"You are under my jurisdiction, after all."

"Thank you, sir."

During the conversation, a deal was done.

Of course, it can be considered as Vinina paying protection fee and Tao Li providing shelter.
