Chapter 198: Three Treasures, Price of the Colony Planet

The storage room was full of level 1 Dark Energy-level equipment, as well as quite a few level 2 Dark Energy-level equipment.
Wang Ye was stunned, and so was Nante.
“How many are there?” Wang Ye picked up a dark energy saber. It was very heavy and contained a powerful energy, but he couldn’t use it yet.
“I haven’t counted the level 1 equipment, but there are three level 2 dark energy weapons and eight other Dark Energy-level equipment,” Xin Ran said.
“Is this all of the Colony Inspector’s property?” Nante was stunned.
Xin Ran shook her head. “These are all gifts from the supervisors of the colony planets.”
After leaving the equipment warehouse, Xin Ran opened another door.
A dazzling light blossomed. Energy crystals that occupied the entire room were piled up casually like waste, causing Nante to gasp.
“What pure energy.” Wang Ye picked up an energy crystal.
The level of compression was very high. It had been compressed with a stage 3 Compression Spell, making it a three-star energy crystal.
The price was 100 times the one-star energy crystal he had absorbed previously, making it 10,000 star points per square meter.
Just this small piece was already comparable to a good one-star Dark Energy-level equipment.
Is this also a gift from the supervisors of the colony planets?” Wang Ye asked.
“Partially,” Xin Ran said. “Being the supervisor of a colony planet sounds like a good job, but in fact, there’s no profit. It depends on whether the colony planet can produce excellent sla… talented people. Only then can the supervisor receive the corresponding rewards. These are produced by the mineral planets in the Lord’s private territory.”
“With so many energy crystals, why is that fatty so weak?” Wang Ye didn’t understand.
These energy crystals were enough for him to reach the cosmic level 4 and above.
“The Lord’s cultivation talent is ordinary, and he is already old, unable to cross the threshold from basic to intermediate cosmic level, hence he didn’t spend too much time on cultivation,” Xin Ran said.
Wang Ye nodded.
In cultivation, there was a small threshold at level 3 and a big threshold at level
9-
Without talent, money was useless.
Of course, it could also be that the Colony Inspector was not rich enough. The cosmic was so big that there were all kinds of treasures with which one could seize the fortune of heaven and earth.
“Are there any… energy stones here?” Nante asked weakly.
Xin Ran looked at him in surprise. “How could something that Lord Amber couldn’t even be bothered to pick up be placed in the storeroom?”
Nante was speechless.
“Are there any treasures that can quickly increase one’s Brain Expansion Rate?” Wang Ye asked.
“The Mist Stimulation Jab,” Xin Ran said. “The first jab costs 1 million star points, the second 10 million, and the third 1 cosmic yuan. After three jabs, one’s brain will instantly expand to 100%.”
“Where can we get it?” Nante was ecstatic.
“Nine Heavens Biotech, one of the 18 top human organizations. It has branches on all the 6-star life planets. But this jab might have side effects,” Xin Ran said.
“What are they?” Wang Ye was deeply impressed by the technological advancement of cosmic humans.
After three jabs, one’s brain expansion rate would reach 100%. It was simply heaven-defying.
No wonder Brother Tieshan said that to humans, the hardest thing for a New Star Lifeform to break through to the cosmic level was only one’s willpower. The rest was just a matter of money.
“It might affect the awakening of one’s talent or bloodline,” Xin Ran said. “According to statistics, the chances of awakening in humans who use the Mist Stimulation Jab will drop by 30%. The exact reason is unknown. After all, many humans don’t have any talent or bloodline.”
“What exactly is talent and bloodline? Have you heard of the bloodline, Body of Steel?” Wang Ye asked curiously.
“Talent is usually awakened by ability users,” Xin Ran said. “Bloodlines are usually awakened by warriors. It is the innate potential of humans. 50% of humans have one of them, and 1% have both.”
It was equivalent to not saying anything.
Simply put, geniuses had both.
There were trillions of humans in the cosmic. Even 1% was huge.
H
It has to do with one’s direction of cultivation, life planet origins, genes, and soul,” Xin Ran said. “The Body of Steel you mentioned is the most common bloodline of the humans on Colony Planet 369. After using it, the user’s body will be like refined steel, and his strength and defense will increase greatly. The longer one uses it, the greater the enhancement, and the harder it will be to suppress the aftereffects. If the user erupts with combat prowess that far surpasses his strength, it’s very likely that he won’t be able to control the spread of the bloodline, and he’ll turn into a body of steel and die.”
Wang Ye nodded.
What a terrifying bloodline.
“When will one awaken?” Nante hurriedly asked.
“The higher the potential, the earlier the awakening. But most humans awaken at the cosmic level,” Xin Ran said. “Warriors must have a perfect body to awaken their bloodline, and ability users must have a 100% brain region to activate their talent.”
“That’s great!” Nante was very close.
“There’s only a 50% chance of awakening.” Wang Ye kindly reminded him.
“The chances of colony planet humans awakening are even lower.” Xin Ran said. “Because of the natural genetic defects, the colony planets’ human potential is low. The average awakening rate is less than 20%. Even Lu Jie doesn’t have a talent.”
?
Both Lingling and he had awakened. Was there something special about the Blue Planet?
“The probability is just an average,” Xin Ran said. “The probability of awakening on a six-star life planet is more than 80%. The probability of awakening on a seven-star life planet is 100%, and they can often all awaken.”
There was no hope for Wang Ye to awaken a bloodline. He knew that he had talent as an ability user, but to have both bloodline and talent, the probability was less than 1%. It was too low.
However, he seemed to be able to absorb the bloodline of others, as long as he had potential points!
This was great.
He would pick a stronger bloodline, just like his talent.
Resurrection was too useful. It had helped him avoid countless near-death situations.
Then, they went to look at the other rooms in the warehouse.
Most of them were filled with gifts from supervisors, various factions, and territories to the Colony Inspector. Not many that could increase strength, but they could be exchanged for a lot of money.
Nante sighed with emotion.
What was a cosmic-level corrupt official?
This was it!
The wealth he had was enough to live a peaceful life in a cosmic nation.
“He’s a Colony Inspector and a member of the royal family. There should be more.” Wang Ye looked at Xin Ran.
“The rest are all real estate, like private colony planets, slaves, mines, territories, and so on. You can’t take them,” Xin Ran said. “Of course, Lord Amber has three treasures that you can use.”
Wang Ye’s eyes lit up.
“One is the Light Mirror Armor he is wearing. It’s a top-grade level 1 Dark Energy-level equipment worth 12 million star points. Not only is its defense comparable to a warrior’s armor, but it also has the special ability of Light Mirror Protection, able to completely defend against a cosmic level 9 attack. Other than that, the Light Mirror Armor can absorb cosmic energy on its own to repair damage and store energy.”
12 million star points!
It was comparable to top-rank 2 Dark Energy-level equipment!
How could it not be top-grade?
“And his most precious level 3 unlimited dark energy weapon, the Radiant Star Blade. This is a dark energy weapon for both the release-type and control-type ability users,” Xin Ran said. “It’s very valuable.”
“What does unlimited mean?” Wang Ye asked curiously.
“It means that there are no restrictions on the user’s life level and ability level. You can use it now. The price is often ten times or even a hundred times higher than dark energy weapons of the same effect,” Xin Ran said. “The Radiant Star Blade is worth 6 billion star points, which is 60 cosmic dollars. Even when disregarding its unlimited characteristic, it is one of the best among level 3 dark energy weapons. If you don’t want to use it, you can sell the Radiant Star Blade in the Anonymous Trading Center and earn a high profit of more than 30 cosmic dollars, which is enough to buy a legal identity in a cosmic nation and live freely.”
Lie flat?
That was absolutely impossible.
“What is the third treasure?” Wang Ye asked.
11
A storage space that is worth 1 cosmic yuan. Its value is secondary,” Xin Ran said. “The storage space mainly holds some important documents and confidential information, as well as some of the Lord’s personal belongings.”
“For example?” Wang Ye was curious.
“Evidence of the royal family’s affairs,” Xin Ran said. “Indecent videos of the princess consort and the like.”
“Do you think I’ll be interested in this?” Wang Ye looked at her.
Xin Ran said, “If necessary, you can use them to threaten or exchange for some useful information.”
“I see. I’m suddenly interested.” Wang Ye nodded. “Is the princess consort good-looking?”
Xin Ran was speechless.
A great harvest!
An entire set of early-stage cosmic-level equipment was complete.
His net worth was now almost comparable to that of a poor basic Dark Energy-level expert.
The greater the risk, the greater the benefits!
As expected, the previous emperors were wise. If the national treasury had no money, it would be full once they raided the homes of corrupt officials.
These were all secondary. What Wang Ye cared about the most was still Blue Planet. He would never forget why he had left it to enter the cosmic.
Wang Ye looked at Xin Ran. “How do I buy a colony planet? How much is it?”
Xin Ran answered without hesitation.” To buy a colony planet, you must first be a two-star cosmic citizen or above. Secondly, you must have achievement points. After meeting these two conditions, you just need to have enough money.”
“How much?” This was what Wang Ye was most concerned about.
Xin Ran said, “The starting price of a four-star colony planet is usually 1 million cosmic dollars. The specific location, size, life energy, and so on of the colony planet will require detailed investigation, but it’s basically between a million to ten million cosmic dollars.”
An astronomical figure.
The net worth of a cosmic level 9 warrior was about tens of millions of star points.
1 million cosmic dollars… Even many Dark Energy level 9 experts wouldn’t even have such a sum.
Moreover, he had to fulfill two other conditions: an identity as a 2-star cosmic citizen or above, and achievement points.
Among the three conditions, the achievement points were the easiest to obtain.
Achievement points were divided into many types. In the cosmic where all races were at war, battle achievements were the easiest to obtain and the most recognized.
He didn’t need to consider achievements through other means like scientific research, academics, creativity, and nurturing.
As for becoming a 2-star cosmic citizen… It was very difficult!
For humans with good backgrounds, such an identity was easy to obtain. For example, Munro King Amber, who he killed, was a 2-star cosmic citizen.
However, ordinary humans needed to prove themselves with their strength. For example, a slave could only obtain the status of a 1-star cosmic citizen while humans born on colony planets could obtain 2-star cosmic citizenship.
Unfortunately, he was already wanted by the Red River Cosmic Nation and had even killed a 2-star cosmic citizen.
The road ahead was long.
“Take it slow. Survive first, then find a way out.” Wang Ye was very calm.
There was always a way out.
Everything else was insignificant. Strength was the absolute truth.
In this cosmic where the strong preyed on the weak and social classes were clearly defined, to break down the social class barrier, there had to be – sufficient strength!
First, breakthrough to the cosmic level!
The modification of the nuclear-powered starship was very fast.
Different from the large-scale destruction of the Moon Base, this time, only the starship’s Hongqi Supernet needed to be removed. The modification was completed after the well-equipped nuclear-powered starship’s own control function was set to be used instead.
Chi! The starship rose into the air.
Wang Ye familiarized himself with the controls and left the satellite, flying towards the endless cosmic.
Destination: Oort Cloud!
