What's wrong with me, a mage, loving to farm?

Chapter 366. Terrifying Profits, Mad Legends

Having many customers is certainly a good thing.

But... there are just too many customers!

For the first time, Kroya felt a little nervous. Was Eden's energy sufficient? With so many legends suddenly pouring in, would Eden be overloaded?

He took a deep breath and quickly calmed down.

Even with so many legends arriving, he didn't intend to forcibly draw upon Eden's power at the last minute. If he said there were thirty, then there would only be thirty places in the first phase of Eden Mansion.

The current situation is that they have unique resources and don't need to care about what others think. Besides, scarcity makes things valuable, and the qualifications they fight for can actually stimulate the competitive spirit of the legends.

Another thing is that he needs to send a message to the goddess of the underworld. After all, he is her junior, so whether it's out of seeking protection or out of politeness, he should tell her.

With that thought in mind, he instructed Adam and Eve: "It is time for you to perform. The underworld will be your main job in the future, so go and receive the legends."

Just maintain the proper courtesy; if anyone causes trouble, invoke the power of Eden.

Adam and Eve's magically driven hearts pounded wildly. They knew, of course, what a legend was, and now, having just been born, they were about to be greeted by one.

This is a heavy responsibility.

"Yes, sir!"

"Father!"

They bowed respectfully and then left.

Meanwhile, the first legendary being had already arrived at the city gate, which was shimmering with rainbow light.

It looked up at the newly built city and murmured to itself, "Life force from the sun."

"I think I've heard my elders mention it before..."

This is a bone dragon, or more precisely, a bone dragon transformed from a crystal dragon. Even though it has been dead for a very long time, its entire body still shines brightly, reflecting the light of Eden.

Crystal dragons are a race that is highly sensitive to magic. They typically live in lush valleys and forests and have a very good relationship with the elves.

It is the one that finds the deathly aura of the underworld most unbearable. What's even more painful is that it came to the underworld by its own folly. After being given some unknown magic, it turned into a bone dragon.

So it regrets it every day. So when it heard its friend describe how it could experience the senses of the living, it immediately flew over.

What makes it happy is that the city gate in front of it is designed with universal spatial anchoring, so that even the largest objects can easily enter.

Upon entering the Crystal Dragon, the first thing you feel is a gentle breeze carrying the fragrance of flowers and grass.

"!!!"

It really works!

It took several greedy breaths before noticing a... golem standing in front of it.

Adam looked up at the towering crystal dragon and said with perfect politeness, "Welcome. I will show you around the facilities of Eden Mansion."

"After you purchase and redeem your stay, you will immediately be able to experience the Eden Mansion's environment, which is even more beautiful than the world of the living. We will provide you with Cenarius's Breath of the Elves as a treehouse."

You can also enjoy two different baths made from the cool springs and constant-temperature springs of the Water Elemental Plane, and stroll through our specially planted garden of calming lilies of the valley and various fruit trees...

While introducing the facilities, he also used projection magic to show the other party the interior of Eden Mansion.

The crystal dragon was naturally increasingly delighted, but before it could even inquire about the price, a tornado suddenly appeared nearby, followed by a figure who strolled out with an air of wealth and arrogance, saying:

"What do I need? What's the maximum duration I can buy it for?"

"You!" The crystal dragon nearly fainted from anger. It was the one who arrived first, so what did this guy mean by this?! He just liked to go against it!

The newcomer was an elven ranger dressed in leather armor, who at first glance looked almost indistinguishable from a living person. He had pointed ears, a slender and well-proportioned figure, and carried a bow and quiver surrounded by elemental energy on his back.

Elf undead, this is truly something I've never seen before.

And it seems that he is a combatant.

Kroya had already instructed Adam on how to handle this situation. He politely told the elven ranger, "We have thirty spots available, and everyone can stay. However, it's on a first-come, first-served basis. This dragon gentleman arrived first."

As she spoke, Eve, who was waiting nearby, stepped forward and said, "Mr. Elf, please come with me to complete the formalities."

Crystal Dragon immediately revealed a smug expression: "Maidamo, this isn't your home. Do you still want to take advantage of me?"

The elf wasn't angry, but simply said, "Where is the mage Kroya? Is he still here? My sister, Iris, sent me. My name is Midamo Orpheus."

Adam and Eve, of course, knew of the Orpheus family, who maintained his smile: "The Father is in Eden; you may see him once you go in."

"Alright," Midas nodded helplessly. "Then process it for me. What do I need?"

Eve led them to a large tree covered with all sorts of coins. This magnificent tree was radiating a special divine power, and it was as if they could hear the laughter of women dressed in jeweled dresses.

No introduction was needed. Midamo from the Orpheus family exclaimed in surprise, "Is this the tree of the goddess of wealth? I heard that after she fell, her power was divided among the gods, and it turns out it ended up in the hands of the light."

Wealth and commerce have always been inseparable. The more wealth circulates and the more developed commerce becomes, the more divine power and authority the goddess of wealth can obtain—and vice versa, the less wealth there is, the weaker her divine authority becomes.

Unfortunately, the dominant theme of the Zemurian continent is gods. The gods' influence on the world has resulted in trade and commerce remaining at the level of caravans. The poor goddess of wealth is only of medium divine power at best.

Later, when the ark crashed, it was hit by several particle cannons and then tricked by the gods, causing it to perish on the spot. No one has been able to obtain its divine position since.

This tree is the legacy of the Father of Light. It possesses a portion of the divine authority over commerce and trade, and can automatically estimate the value of most items. Therefore, it was used by Kroya as an identification machine.

After all, who knows what these legends of the underworld will bring out? We can't expect him to personally oversee the money collection every single moment—although collecting money is satisfying, it also lowers our prestige a bit.

Eve nodded in agreement: "Yes, it can automatically estimate the value of the items you bring out."

Maidam looked at the tree, pondered for a moment, and then immediately took out a large pile of various "miscellaneous items," including soul crystals, ribs, stones, and tree branches...

To be honest, it looks a lot like a garbage collector.

In addition, most things in the underworld are grayish-brown, so it looks even more like the underworld.

Eve: "..."

The Tree of Wealth didn't seem to mind; it shook its branches, and the phantom images of gold coins dripped onto the trash... no, the junk.

With a "whoosh" sound like flowing gold coins, it moved the clutter that was in place, leaving behind a large pile of gold coins formed by its divine power.

Eve quickly counted them; there weren't many, only fifty.

It should be noted that the Tree of Wealth measures its value in third-tier magic crystals. This means that the pile of junk that Midamo casually picked up was actually worth fifty third-tier magic crystals, equivalent to 500,000 first-tier magic crystals.

Of course, it can't measure items by market price. It's impossible to say that these odds and ends can be exchanged for fifty Tier 3 magic crystals immediately; it's just that their "value" is equivalent.

Moreover, Tier 3 magic crystals can only be found in giant mines, but in the world of legendary mages, Tier 3 and above magic crystals are the currency for trade.

The things that Kroya usually buys from the Holy Spring Merchant Guild are essentially low-end civilian products; he hasn't even come into contact with high-end production lines yet.

That's how wondrous divine authority is.

"How much time can these buy?" Maidam asked with satisfaction after clearing out a batch of his randomly picked-up items.

Eve explained, "Fifty hours."

"The price of 10,000 level 1 magic crystals is roughly equivalent to one hour."

"Just fifty hours?" Maidam was immediately unhappy. He took out a huge pile of trash and kept taking it out, piling up the time to a year before nodding in satisfaction.

In other words, he spent items worth 8460 level 3 magic crystals here—he really felt like he made a killing.

Many things are like this; although the price is there, it's really difficult to exchange them for magic crystals—but Kroya needs such things. The more items there are in the underworld, the faster he can analyze the composition of the underworld in Eden.

They thought they had made a profit, and Kroya had indeed made a profit.

Eve immediately handed over the Eden Card, which had been entered with the time information, and extended her hand in invitation, saying, "Welcome to Eden Mansion. You are welcome to enjoy all the basic facilities within..."

Before he could finish speaking, a tall skeleton king in the queue behind him couldn't help but say, "Midas! What are you hesitating for up there?!"

"Can we go in faster? We need to buy time tickets too!"

"yes."

"Elves are just pretentious."

"A waste of time!"

Just as Maidam was about to turn around and say something, he saw a large group of legends patiently queuing up behind him—dozens at a glance.

The messenger of the goddess of the underworld was maintaining order here, while the tall, three-headed hound of the underworld dripped with corrosive saliva and stared menacingly at the legends.

"..."

He looked at the legends whose soul flames were getting impatient and suddenly couldn't help but laugh. These people, who were usually powerful figures in their own right, were actually obediently queuing up here.

And to be honest, if you calculate it based on magic crystals alone, one level 3 magic crystal per hour is still very expensive. But this is a unique experience, and anything involving uniqueness and monopoly is exaggerated.

So he waved his hand dismissively: "Hey, you guys keep queuing, I'm going in first!"

The hot-tempered legends almost lost their tempers with him on the spot when they saw him like this, but since this guy was not only from the Orpheus family, but also had a clear rule that fighting was not allowed here, otherwise you would never be allowed to enter, they could only endure it and continue to queue.

After drawing a wave of hatred, he casually stepped into Eden Mansion. The moment he stepped over the hazy, rainbow-colored wall, a gentle breeze and cool raindrops pattered on his handsome face.

It was raining at Eden Mansion. The raindrops fell slowly and gently. Instead of the stench of decay from the underworld, he could smell the fresh air from the raindrops, which even gave him a dreamlike feeling.

"..."

He stood quietly on the steps, gazing into the distance—the lush green grass and the vibrant, colorful flowers formed a magnificent picture that stretched to the horizon.

There seemed to be a faint, brilliant glow in the air. The gentle sun hung quietly in the azure sky, surrounded by countless stars, arranged in a dense and orderly fashion, shimmering with colorful light.

The sky and the earth seemed to be echoing each other at this moment, forming a magnificent yet mysterious pattern.

"So beautiful."

At this moment, he had to admit that even in the gardens of the Orpheus family, there was no such beauty, and that he was seeing such beauty after his death.

He was eager to take a step, but as soon as he moved forward, several figures darted past him, including a wizard who had transformed himself into a lich...

He was a typical magic-based powerhouse, and at this moment he was running quickly on his own two feet. His usually elegant robes were billowing high in the wind, revealing his body structure that had completely turned into bones.

Maidam: "..."

Upon seeing this, he disregarded everything else and immediately cast a series of legendary-level elven spells on himself, his body merging into the wind as he rushed out.

Soon, the running legends arrived in front of the mansion where Cenarion's Breath was created, and almost a major battle broke out over the choice of which mansion to build—fortunately, they realized that fighting was not allowed here.

After each occupying their preferred residence, they happily met up to bathe, fish, and pick fruit, acting more like a group of retired old men than a legend.

After all, they were all people Theodore found through his circle of friends. While friends of friends can't be called friends, they can still exchange a few words when they meet, so it's unlikely they'd end up fighting.

They're legendary figures, after all. Normal communication is possible when there's no fighting. As for those legendary figures who are cold-hearted and impossible to communicate with... that's just because they don't feel the need to waste their time with you.

And so, they went off to enjoy themselves, chatting and laughing.

The thirty spots were snapped up in just ten minutes.

But the number of legendary figures who arrived was far more than thirty.

They were angrily surrounding Adam and Eve, who were in charge of this area:

"We want to go in too!"

"Just thirty people! Thirty people?!"

"I came here to end the Aether Experiment!"

They didn't smash anything or use violence or coercion; they just wanted to spend money. Adam and Eve could only explain this over and over again.

It was at this moment that the two ladies slowly stepped into the room hand in hand.

The legends' voices fell silent instantly.

Thank you everyone for your monthly tickets and recommendation votes!
