161 Yellow Gold-Tier Aurora Crystal and White Platinum-Tier Aurora Crystal!
Half an hour later.
Zhou Zhou and the others arrived at the outskirts of Sunshine City.
He let Nezario fly in the sky so that it would not expose itself while he paid attention to Bai Yun and his surroundings.
Then, the two of them arrived at the entrance of Sunshine City.
He saw the city gate.
People came and went, bustling with activity.
What a lively scene.
“There are so many people!”
Bai Yun exclaimed.
Zhou Zhou acknowledged.
As expected of a Yellow Gold-Tier regional territory of the Aurora Kingdom.
It was indeed much livelier than his Blazing Sun City.
However, his expression was very calm because he believed that his Sand Gold City would definitely be even livelier than this place in the near future.
The two of them were scanned with the scarlet fog detector at the city gate. They successfully entered Sunshine City after confirming that the two of them were not fog monsters in disguise.
After entering the city, the two of them could not help but be attracted by the bustling scene in the city.
However, they did not forget their business and only took a few glances before heading straight for the Administrative Hall.
A moment later.
In one of the reception rooms of the Administrative Hall.
Zhou Zhou and Bai Yun sat together.
On the other side was the City Lord of the Sunshine City, Wu Bailian, who had just arrived.
He was wearing general armor and had a stocky build. He had a beard and a scar that covered half of his face.
This did not make him ugly. Instead, it gave him the might of a fierce general.
However, Zhou Zhou and Bai Yun were not ordinary people so they naturally ignored this might.
“So you’re the Lord of The Blazing Sun.”
“I’ve heard a lot about you.”
“May I know why the two of you are suddenly visiting?”
Wu Bailian smiled.
“City Lord Wu, you’re too kind.”
“We’re here for no other reason than to buy some Yellow Gold-Tier Aurora Crystals from you.”
After Zhou Zhou finished speaking, he took out the Aurora Crystal trading contract that Li Ya had given him.
Wu Bailian began to frown after hearing Zhou Zhou’s words.
He had a bad feeling when he took out the Aurora Crystal trading contract.
Wu Bailian read the contract and immediately fell silent.
Zhou Zhou and Bai Yi could tell that something was wrong with his expression, but neither of them said anything.
A moment later.
Wu Bailian was the first to shake his head.
“Lord of The Blazing Sun.”
“Logically speaking, I should sell you Aurora Crystals with this Aurora Crystal Trading Contract.”
“But recently, the fourth legion of the Tahan Kingdom is attacking my Sunshine City and the surrounding 16 regional territories of the Aurora Kingdom.”
“As a result, most of the Aurora Crystals in our hands have been provided to the front line.”
“Therefore, our supply of Aurora Crystals is also very tight.”
“So please forgive me for not being able to sell you the Aurora Crystals in our hands.”
Wu Bailian said.
Even though Zhou Zhou had a premonition, he still felt a little helpless when he heard him say this.
“It’s okay.”
“City Lord Wu has his own difficulties.”
“Then may I ask where the closest Yellow Gold-Tier regional territory is? I can exchange it there.”
Zhou Zhou quickly adjusted his mentality and asked.
“I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you, Lord of The Blazing Sun.”
“The nearby Yellow Gold-Tier and above regional territories are now fighting the Scarlet Legion of the Tahan Kingdom.”
“They might be in a worse situation than me.”
“They probably won’t trade the Aurora Crystals with you, my Lord.”
“However, more than 3,000 kilometers south is a Diamond-Tier territory of our Aurora Kingdom— Golden Age City.”
“That place is inland of the Aurora Kingdom and is temporarily unaffected by the war. You should be able to buy high level Aurora Crystals there if you urgently need them.”
Wu Bailian said.
Zhou Zhou frowned slightly.
How long would this round trip take?
He could use the Return To The City talent to save time if he was alone.
However, he still had Nezario and Bai Yi with him Return To The City could not bring them back.
“Actually, I have another idea, but whether you can get what you want will depend on you, Lord of The Blazing Sun.”
Wu Bai Lian pondered for a few seconds before saying, as if seeing the dilemma on Zhou Zhou’s face.
“What is that?”
Zhou Zhou immediately asked.
“The Aurora Crystal comes from the Aurora Race’s body and is the source of their life.”
“At the same time, it can also be used to drive the energy of certain special weapons, such as the Aurora Tower.”
“Our country allows our subjects to offer their corpses to the kingdom after they die because it’s a strategic resource that concerns the safety of the kingdom. The country will also give such subjects’ families a large compensation.”
“In addition, we will confer glory onto these honorable subjects.”
“Right now, there is a batch of Yellow Gold-Tier and White Platinum-Tier honorable subject corpses in the Sunshine City vault.”
“If the Lord of The Blazing Sun believes in your luck, you can try to extract the loot from these corpses and see if you can extract the Aurora Crystals you want.”
“But it’s more expensive, every Yellow Gold-Tier honorable subject corpse costs one White Platinum-Tier Mist Core and every White Platinum-Tier honorable subject corpse can only be bought at the price of one Diamond-Tier Mist Core!”
“This is the price whether or not you are able to extract the Aurora Crystal or not. I wonder if the Lord of The Blazing Sun is willing to accept it?” Wu Bailian asked.
He had originally thought that the Lord of The Blazing Sun wouldn’t accept such harsh conditions.
But he did not expect that his eyes lit up and agreed immediately.
“Okay!”
Wu Bai Lian: ???
“But I can only buy Aurora Crystals of Yellow Gold-Tier and below, right?”
Zhou Zhou asked doubtfully.
“Yes…”
“However, it’s fine as long as it is not a ready-made Aurora Crystal and only the corpses of White Platinum-Tier honorable subjects.” Wu Bailian said.
Zhou Zhou acknowledged.
A moment later.
In the Sunshine City vault.
“The corpses of 312 Yellow Gold-Tier and 112 White Platinum-Tier honorable subjects are here.”
“They were all soldiers of our Aurora Kingdom when they were alive.”
“They chose to offer themselves up after they died.”
“Lord of The Blazing Sun, you can take a look.”
“You can retrieve the corpse’s loots, but please don’t do anything that would defile the corpses.”
Wu Bailian pointed at the corpses of these honorable subjects.
“Of course.”
Zhou Zhou acknowledged.
Then, he looked at the corpses and quickly saw that these corpses were different from the other corpses.
The corpses of these honorable subjects had actually turned pale white and transparent. Moreover, their corpses seemed to have shrunk and looked very small.
In addition, there was a faint white light on their foreheads.
Zhou Zhou immediately thought of Princess Li Ya of the Aurora Kingdom.
There was something similar between her eyebrows, however, hers was a white prismatic crystal.
These corpses had white light spots.
Zhou Zhou did not think too much about the difference.
He looked at the corpses of one of the honorable subjects.
[Item Name: Feng Yu’s Corpse]
[Item Level: Yellow Gold-Tier]
[Item Effect: Contains unextracted loots.]
[Item Description: The corpse of an honorable subject made by the Aurora Kingdom with a special potion. It can preserve the Aurora Crystal energy in the corpse to the greatest extent. Moreover, the corpse can be preserved for a year.]
[Prompt: This corpse will turn into fog and be reborn at a certain time in the future in two hours.]
[Loots: Yellow Gold-Tier Aurora Crystal (Drop Rate: 5%)]
“There’s only one type of loot?”
Zhou Zhou raised his eyebrows.
Is this the price of preserving the energy of the Aurora Crystal for a long time? He speculated but did not ponder too long about it.
“Why are these corpses left here? Shouldn’t you try extracting the Aurora Crystals early?”
Zhou Zhou asked curiously, not in a hurry to extract them immediately.
“According to the kingdom’s rules, under normal circumstances, these corpses can only be extracted when the Lucky Person arrives.” Wu Bailian said.
Zhou Zhou’s expression was strange.
This was not the first time he had heard of the profession Lucky Person.
It was the same when he bought the Conqueror’s Blast Furnace last time.
It seemed that the people of the High Continent believed in metaphysics in this aspect.
After that, Zhou Zhou planned to extract the Aurora Crystals from the corpse.
He said that using the metaphysical method to extract the loots makes it inconvenient for others to see.
Wu Bailian believed this reason easily.
He left the Sunshine City vault after reminding him again not to do anything rude to the corpse.
Zhou Zhou did not waste any time.
He directly began to retrieve the loots.
A moment later.
Zhou Zhou walked out of the Sunshine City vault.
“I’m done.”
He said.
Wu Bai Lian nodded and was about to walk into the Sunshine City vault to check how many corpses had been extracted.
He froze as soon as he entered.
All the corpses of the honorable subjects in the Sunshine City vault disappeared!
“You’ve extracted them all?”
Wu Bailian turned to look at Zhou Zhou in a daze.
Zhou Zhou acknowledged.
He looked at the Spatial Ring.
There were 312 Yellow Gold-Tier Aurora Crystals and 112 White Platinum-Tier Aurora Crystals in his Spatial Ring!
“I can build a White Platinum-Tier Aurora Tower when I return!” He thought in satisfaction.
161 Yellow Gold-Tier Aurora Crystal and White Platinum-Tier Aurora Crystal!
Half an hour later.
Zhou Zhou and the others arrived at the outskirts of Sunshine City.
He let Nezario fly in the sky so that it would not expose itself while he paid attention to Bai Yun and his surroundings.
