Swallowed Star: Top Comprehension

Chapter 77: 5000 billion Black Dragon Coins! Is this too much?

Qiu Longxing, Qibao Store.

Facing the old man's gaze, Chen Yue's mouth corners slightly raised and his mind moved.

A pitch-black sword appeared in his hand.

Shadow.

In the ruins of ancient civilization No. 9, the bald crystal man once told him that this knife was enough for him to use up to the cosmic level.

From this, Chen Yue deduced that this knife was at least a second-level force weapon, and it might even be third-level.

Recently, when he was comparing his own Shadow with Luo Feng's Sky Shuttle, he discovered something quite interesting.

Luo Feng's Sky-Escape Shuttle is a third-order, low-grade telekinetic weapon.

The first form can be practiced when the amplitude reaches 12.

The second form can be practiced when the amplitude reaches 30.

The third form requires reaching the cosmic level, possessing a domain, and an amplitude of 48 before it can be practiced.

Generally speaking, the easier a weapon is to use, the higher its tier and the more expensive it is.

However, the bald crystal man did not explain to Chen Yue how to use the knife.

When Chen Yue tried it himself, he discovered that—

Shadow seems to have a very low threshold.

How to say something?
Just have some hands!

Therefore, he developed a strong interest in this knife.

The old man gently took the shadow, his eyes narrowed, looking at it intently.

His brows twisted unconsciously: "Level 2... No, wait, it's Level 3...?"

But his voice was full of doubt. Even though he was knowledgeable, he seemed a little confused at this moment.

Determined to verify it, the old man quickly took out the identification equipment that looked quite sophisticated.

He carefully placed Shadow over the device and tapped a button.

"drop!"

A clear prompt sound was heard, and then a beam of warm green light slowly covered the blade.

The text danced on the device screen, and finally froze to reveal the stunning result:

"Mo Yuan, a third-grade superior force weapon, has been out of production for tens of millions of years."

Millions of years!
"Third-grade, top-quality!" The old man took a breath of cold air, a hint of awe in his eyes.

Chen Yue smiled slightly, feeling satisfied with this unexpected discovery.

It seems that Yunmoxing treats him well.

How about asking Babata to bring out Huyanbo's body and pay homage to him again?
After collecting his thoughts, he said calmly, "Make an offer."

This time it wasn't that he didn't want to explain, but he himself was confused about the origin of the knife.

The old man felt Chen Yue’s confidence and did not dare to be careless.

He gritted his teeth and offered the highest price he could afford: "5000 billion Black Dragon Coins!"

This number shocked Chen Yue. He really didn't remember the specific price of the third-grade top-grade force weapon, but he nodded without changing his expression.

"It's a pleasure to work with you. Let's sign the contract."

After the contract was signed, the huge sum of 5000 billion Black Dragon Coins was transferred into his Universe Galaxy Bank account.

Chen Yue smiled with satisfaction.

At this point, he had accumulated a certain amount of capital on Qiulong Star.

Then he put forward a new demand: "I want to buy a first-order force weapon suitable for my apprentice to use."

The old man understood immediately, and with a wave of his hand, various projections of first-order force weapons appeared.

Swords, spears, halberds, and daggers are all available.

A demonstration video is also included.

"Ding ding dang dang--" The sonorous sound of metal collision echoed in the space, waiting for Chen Yue's selection.

Chen Yue frowned, his eyes swept over those first-grade superior force weapons, and said with a little displeasure: "Are these all first-grade superior? Are there any more ordinary ones?" he asked.

The old man was stunned for a moment.

He obviously didn't expect that Chen Yue would not be interested in these first-grade, top-quality Force weapons.

However, he did not ask any more questions, but immediately adjusted the projection and began to display some first-grade mid-quality Force weapons.

However, Chen Yue just glanced at it, shook his head again, and then said, "Something more ordinary."

The old man finally couldn't help but remind him: "Sir, you should know that the lower the grade of the Force weapon, the higher the skill and strength required of the user..."

"I know. This is exactly how I want to train him." Chen Yue replied calmly, his tone revealing unquestionable firmness.

In fact, he was not giving it to his apprentice, but clearly for his own use, and he was reluctant to spend a lot of money on it.

Anyway, he doesn't plan to go out and have fun at the planetary level, so there's no point in buying too good equipment.

Well! It's better to spend money wisely.

The old man had no choice but to display a first-grade inferior force weapon.

Frost Shadow Blade——Can only be used when the force amplitude reaches 32.

Whirlwind Gun——Can only be used when the force amplitude reaches 31.

Star Sword——Can only be used when the force amplitude reaches 35.

Thundering Halberd: Can only be used when the force amplitude reaches 33.

Xiangyun Spear: Can only be used when the force amplitude reaches 34.

……

Chen Yue took a look.

That's it?

Is this harsh?
"Is there anything more demanding?" Chen Yue continued to ask.

The old man quickly shook his head. If the other party had not just sold him a third-grade top-grade force weapon, he would have wanted to start chasing him away.

But he seemed to have thought of something, and said hurriedly: "There is such a knife, but it is a bit useless."

A virtual projection immediately appeared in the store, showing a knife that was shining with golden light all over.

"Kaguya - first-level inferior, requires the holder to be at the planetary level, in the field of light, and have a force amplitude of 40 before it can be used."

"Sir, this knife is too..." The old man wanted to say something but was interrupted by Chen Yue.

Chen Yue smiled and said, "I'll choose this one. I'll take all the remaining ones."

The old man explained, "Sir, there is only one of these, and they have been out of production for a long time."

"Okay..." Chen Yue seemed a little regretful.

In the end, Chen Yue bought the knife for only 5 million Black Dragon Coins.

Another thought occurred to him, and he said, "I want to sell something else."

The air in the room distorted slightly, and soon a three-dimensional virtual projection appeared.

This is his Heilongshan X81 spacecraft, quietly floating in the virtual space.

"Oh my God, the Black Dragon Mountain X81 spacecraft! This is a model from more than a million years ago. It is truly a treasure in the collection world!" The old man's eyes opened wide, his voice full of surprise.

"The old man is indeed well-informed. This spaceship is made of black yttrium metal. It is indeed a collection that I am quite satisfied with."

Chen Yue stared at the Black Dragon Mountain X81 spacecraft in the virtual projection, his eyes showing deep reluctance. The old man seemed to be infected by Chen Yue's emotions, and a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

Then the old man asked tentatively: "Sir, are you planning to sell this spaceship?"

After all, the Heilongshan X81 spacecraft has a history of millions of years. With the passage of time, many of its parts have aged, and repairing it is as difficult as buying a new spacecraft.

The spaceship in front of him had obviously been carefully modified and maintained, which must have consumed countless manpower and thought.

In the old man's opinion, Chen Yue would not sell it easily.

However, Chen Yue replied with a warm smile: "Yes, do you have a suitable sales channel here?"

There was a sense of ease in his voice, as if he didn't feel bad about selling such a treasure.

He went on to say, “I spent 90 billion Black Dragon coins to build this Black Dragon spaceship, and invested an additional 20 billion Black Dragon coins in modification and repairs.”

"This spacecraft is made of pure black yttrium metal and weighs approximately 200 million tons."

"Each ton of yttrium metal is worth 3 Black Dragon coins. The cost of the metal used to build the spacecraft alone is 60 billion Black Dragon coins."

Chen Yue wanted to show that he knew the price very well so that the old man would not be able to manipulate the price.

As Chen Yue introduced, the old man kept nodding in agreement.

Using pure yttrium metal to build a spacecraft is undoubtedly an act of extreme luxury.

The same level of C5-class spacecraft, if made of alloy, its price is only one-tenth of the cost of pure yttrium, or even lower.

After thinking for a moment, the old man said, "I have an old friend who likes to collect such items. Please wait a moment, I will go and ask him."

"Of course, I will wait for your good news." Chen Yue responded with a smile.

After the old man left, Chen Yue turned to Carter next to him.

"Carter, don't be nervous. There are all kinds of snacks here. Just take whatever you want to eat." Chen Yue noticed Carter's uneasiness and comforted him.

The store provides a variety of snacks for customers to enjoy while waiting.

Carter finally relaxed after Chen Yue said this.

The highest-ranking adult he had ever received was a cosmic-level powerhouse.

But even that big shot had never so casually taken out third-order telekinetic weapons and C5-class spacecraft for sale.

Carter became more and more curious about Chen Yue's identity, but his behavior became more cautious as a result.

"Your Excellency, I'll be welcome then. I'm indeed a little hungry." Carter replied happily, and then picked up the snacks on the table.

Chen Yue nodded and fell into deep thought.

In this universe where the strong prey on the weak, Carter is already a ninth-level apprentice despite his young age.

If he were on Earth, a high-level war god of his age would be enough to stand out among all the geniuses.

However, on Qilong, he seemed to have to almost grovel to survive.

Although the lord of this planet is a powerful domain master, there are still omissions in his rule.

Earth...

At this moment, the old man appeared again.

The old man announced with a cheerful face: "Sir, my friend is willing to pay 160 billion Black Dragon Coins to buy it."

Chen Yue smiled and responded, "Deal, old man."

The old man was startled, and quickly laughed, "Sir, you are so frank and straightforward!"

Chen Yue knew that the old man might have lowered the price.

But Chen Yue remembered that in the original novel, Luo Feng sold the Black Dragon Mountain X81 spacecraft for 168 billion Black Dragon Coins through Gao Sheng's introduction.

Therefore, he thought the price offered by the old man was quite fair.

After the two signed the contract again, Chen Yue took the old man to Area C of the berthing port to see his Heilongshan X81 spacecraft.

--------

Qiulong Star, Mooring Port Area C.

At this time, the green-skinned young man who had been seen before saw Chen Yue and hurried towards him.

Carter rushed forward and shouted, "Brother!"

The young man then noticed Carter behind Chen Yue: "Carter, why are you here?"

Carter smiled and replied, "I am serving as a guide for this gentleman." His smile was pure and innocent.

"Nice to see you again. My name is Caron, and I'm Carter's brother. Carter is young, so please forgive me if I'm offended." The green-skinned young man Caron showed respect to Chen Yue.

"You worry too much. Carter has been a great help to me." Chen Yue replied with a smile.

"Since you are here, things are much simpler. I have authorized this old gentleman to be responsible for the sale of this spaceship. Here is the contract. You can submit it to the berthing port management office. I am too lazy to make a trip." Chen Yue said with a smile.

On Qiulong Star, the functions of the Port Management Office are somewhat similar to those of the Urban Management Office on Earth, and it has certain law enforcement powers.

They not only protect the spacecraft, but also implement various regulatory measures on it. Therefore, Chen Yue needs to report this transaction to them.

"Okay, sir, just leave it to me." Caron agreed quickly.

"Carter, come with me and don't cause trouble for the gentleman." Caron reminded and winked at Carter.

Little Carter seemed a little reluctant, and he looked at Chen Yue pitifully.

"Let him continue to be my guide. After all, I haven't given him the promised compensation yet." Chen Yue said with a smile.

He would also go around the Qilong Star again. It would be nice to have Carter accompany him.

"Haha, did you hear that, brother?" Carter acted like a naughty child in front of his brother.

"Hey, just don't cause trouble for this adult." Caron couldn't help but remind him.

"Old sir, if there is nothing else, we will take our leave first. We also plan to visit other places." Chen Yue said politely.

"Take care. I still have to wait for my friend here. Haha, he can't wait to get here immediately." The old man replied with a smile, with a helpless look on his face.

Chen Yue nodded to show his understanding.

They left the port. Carter couldn't fly, so Chen Yue pulled him and flew in the air.

In the sky of Qiulong Star.

Chen Yue looked towards the horizon. The sky here seemed to be covered with a layer of purple gauze, while the sky in the distance was a deep blue!
"The sky of Qilong Star is truly unique."

Chen Yue couldn't help but praise, "In different places, you can see blue, purple, even green, red and other colorful skies, and the scenery changes frequently!"

"Especially when the sunlight penetrates the atmosphere and shines on the sea, the scenery is so beautiful!"

"That's right, sir. It is the beautiful scenery that has attracted many powerful people to live here, making Qiulong Star gradually become more and more prosperous." Carter added.

A gleam of light flashed in Chen Yue's eyes as he stared at an exquisitely designed city in the distance. The city was magnificent and comparable to a city on Earth.

"My Lord, that is a very luxurious residence on the Qiulong Star, a castle that is 9.8 kilometers wide. Those who can own such a castle as a residence are all great figures in the world."

Carter's eyes were full of longing.

Chen Yue understood.

This kind of castle is one of the more luxurious properties on the Qiulong Star, similar to a villa on Earth.

The universe is vast and there are countless planets, so the top people in the universe are accustomed to living in very large places.

On a prosperous planet like Qiulong, land is relatively expensive, so a castle that is 9.8 kilometers long and wide is considered a luxury.

If it were on an ordinary planet, it would be nothing.

"Carter, I heard that there are many privileges when buying a property on Qiulong Star?" Chen Yue asked Carter as they walked.

"Yes, my lord."
