MTL - Electromagnetic Tyrant

Chapter 361: Selling Alien Species

 “Mr. Ji!”

As soon as Sophia's projection came out, she was all smiles and said enthusiastically: "Congratulations on defeating Li Xuan and being on the global combat rankings!"

 Compared to more than two months ago, when she was in the New Roman Empire, her words were a little more respectful.

 She sent a congratulatory message just after the duel ended a few hours ago.

 Furthermore, Sophia also came to watch the game today.

"Thank you, Your Highness, Princess." Ji Xinghuo naturally knew why she was so enthusiastic and asked straight to the point: "I wonder if the princess is free?"

"have!"

Sophia's eyes lit up, "I'm in Chang'an."

"Let's meet at ten o'clock tomorrow morning." Ji Xinghuo sent her his apartment address.

"Okay, I'll be there on time." Sophia agreed immediately, with unconcealable excitement in her eyes.

Ji Xinghuo hung up the phone.

 Zhao Manying asked in a low voice: "Xinghuo, are you going to sell her your absolute destiny?"

"I just have this intention." Ji Xinghuo explained: "Neither of us can use it, and it's useless to keep it in our hands. It's better to change it to the ether crystal. Sophia's bid is the highest, but it doesn't necessarily have to be sold to her. There are strings attached.”

Zhao Manmanbingxue was smart and immediately guessed that this was related to his overseas funds.

 “I’ll tell you later.”

Ji Xinghuo said and looked at Su Ziyou who was walking over. He and Sophia were on the phone in person, and Su Ziyou naturally heard it.

 “Xinghuo.” Su Ziyou asked: “To tell you the truth, I also want absolute hits. I wonder if I can compete with Princess Sophia?”

Ji Xinghuo leaned on the edge of the swimming pool and said with a smile, "That depends on your financial resources."

Su Ziyou had a bit of embarrassment on his face.

He knew that Ji Xinghuo was not short of money, and that the Starfall aliens could not be traded with Earth's currency. They must use ether crystals, or treasures of the same value, expansion of rare items, alien species, weapons and equipment, etc. Although he had accumulated a lot of wealth, he still Can't take it.

“Princess Sophia made a bid, is it convenient to disclose it?” Su Ziyou asked.

Ji Xinghuo didn’t hide anything, “2,000 ether crystals, and I didn’t agree.”

"so much!"

Su Ziyou was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head helplessly. Even if his entire wealth was converted into ether crystals, it would still be less than 1,000. Although he is a legendary alien with top talents, his wealth still pales in comparison to that of an imperial princess.

 “Forget it, it seems that I have no chance of absolute destiny.” Su Ziyou sighed, and could only comfort himself in this way.

Ji Xinghuo nodded, "If we have the opportunity in the future, we will make a deal again."

 He just said it casually.

However, Su Ziyou's face changed after hearing this, and he thought for a few seconds before saying: "I have some news in my hand that I can sell to you. It's related to the expansion rare item. It was originally intended to be used as a bargaining chip, but now it can only be sold separately. Are you interested?"

"Of course I'm interested." Ji Xinghuo sat up straight, "What kind of expansion wonder?"

 For aliens, expansion rare objects are the most precious treasures besides alien species.

  The higher the level, the harder it is to find expansion wonders.

 Even, the value of expansion wonders to those Heavenly Kings and Shepherd Saints is higher than that of alien species.

 Even just a clue about the expansion of the rare object is of high value.

Su Ziyou looked around.

Here are Ji Xinghuo's family and friends, most of whom are strangers and have excellent hearing, making it difficult to talk.

 “Let’s go in and talk.”

Ji Xinghuo stood up and walked into a private room. The walls here were soundproofed to prevent eavesdropping. Su Ziyou followed.

"The expansion wonders I want to talk about are not 'things' in the general sense, but they can also play a role in increasing the number of fusions of different species." Su Ziyou considered his words, with a solemn expression with a bit of hesitation, "This is my secret , Starfire, please listen to me, please keep it a secret for me."

 “Okay.” Ji Xinghuo nodded.

Su Ziyou stared at him for a few seconds, and finally continued: "What I want to talk about is a ritual, a ritual of praying to the Star God."

"Which Star God?" Ji Xinghuo's heart skipped a beat, something didn't sound right.

 “Spiritual Lord.”

Su Ziyou whispered two words.

Ji Xinghuo's face was startled, and when he looked at Su Ziyou, his eyes suddenly became more scrutinizing and suspicious, "Brother Su, you won't become a follower of the Spirit Lord, will you?"

If it were in the past, Ji Xinghuo might not quite understand the meaning of "Spirit Master" and only knew that it was a star god. However, in the past few months, he has been attending classes every day during his practice and learned a lot of knowledge about the star realm, including Includes an Overview of Star Gods.

According to the professor who specializes in studying Star Gods, it is unknown how many Star Gods there are in the Star Realm, but the most terrifying ones are always the four God Lords.

The so-called "Spiritual Lord" is one of the four star **** lords!

 His full name is "Cunning Way Spirit Master".

And this is just one of his most well-known titles. The Spirit Master is also revered by believers as "Lord of Psionics", "Lord of Chaos", "Supreme Teacher", "Omniscient One", "God of Wisdom" and "God of Change" ”, “The Destiny Weaver”, “Dark Prophet”, “The Faceless One” and so on.

 Spiritual deities have countless incarnations and images.

 It’s weird and unpredictable, ever-changing!

 Lingzun has followers all over the star realms and galactic civilizations. He possesses wisdom that is unimaginable to mortals, especially knowledge related to spiritual energy. It is said that he has insight into the ultimate truth of the universe.

 Among the four divine masters, the power of the Spirit Lord ranks second.

 But he likes to hide behind the scenes, manipulate everything through intrigues, and create chaos in civilization and countries.

There is no special purpose or reason for the spirit master to do this, just to implement his plans. In the eyes of mortals and believers, these plans are often contradictory and therefore often lead to failure.

 Anyone can pray to the spiritual master, and while receiving his response, he will also undergo a test.

 Believers who pass the test will receive a gift.

This gift can be an opportunity to reverse the destiny of life, an answer to a difficult question that has been bothering you for a long time, a way to improve your strength, or even a powerful superpower, etc. Therefore, the Spirit Master is also called the "God of Hope." .

 However, the Spirit Master is an out-and-out evil god!

 Praying to him to obtain gifts is a road of no return. The more believers pray to the spiritual master, they will become addicted. In order to collect knowledge and power, they will do anything to satisfy their greed.

 During this process, the believer's mind is eroded and distorted, and he gradually develops various hallucinations and becomes a psychotic patient.

 In the end, he became a worthless chess piece and was abandoned by the spiritual master.

The Spirit Master enjoys being fooled until the mad believer self-destructs, which is part of his plan.

 The four great astral **** lords are all evil gods.

The Red Emperor is like this.

 The same is true for spiritual masters.

They are completely different from the gods in human normal cognition. Of course, the so-called "evil gods" are also judged based on human knowledge and moral principles. Many races, civilizations and countries recognize the principles and dogmas of the four major gods. Worship the Lord without any scruples.

For example, the Star God "Dragon of the End" believed in by the True Dragon Dynasty is also an evil **** to a certain extent.

 But on earth, the four major gods are beliefs that must not be touched.

"No!"

Su Ziyou immediately denied, "Although the ceremony I mentioned is to pray to the spiritual master, it is not in the identity of a believer, but a sacrificial ceremony, in which power is exchanged with the spiritual master at a sufficient price. Both parties have an equal relationship."

 “Sacrifice ceremony…”

Ji Xinghuo immediately thought of the followers of the Red Emperor.

Many tribes on the Bloody Plateau have been killing each other for countless years, sacrificing their own blood to the Red Emperor in exchange for blood crystals.

 As expected, they are all evil gods and behave in similar ways.

 But he doubted Su Ziyou's words. How could a mortal be equal to a great astral god?

Whoever believes this is a fool.

Spiritual Master loves to plot against believers and mortals. He is unpredictable and unpredictable. It is very likely that this is a trap set by him. As long as the ceremony is held, he will be marked and targeted.

 “Brother Su has already held a sacrificial ceremony?” Ji Xinghuo asked. "Yes." Su Ziyou said calmly, "The sacrifice ceremony of the Spiritual Master requires something that contains knowledge, creativity or wisdom. The more sacrifices you make, the more feedback you can get. I have only held one sacrifice. , got two expansion opportunities.”

 He saw the doubt on Ji Xinghuo's face and laughed.

"do not worry."

Su Ziyou was full of confidence, "I held the sacrificial ceremony ten years ago, and it's fine now. I will not hold a second sacrificial ceremony in the future, let alone be given the 'Wisdom Seal' by the spiritual master."

Ji Xinghuo's expression softened slightly.

The Spirit Master's "Wisdom Seal" is similar to the Red Emperor's "Blood-Drinking Flame". It needs to pass multiple prayer tests before it can be awarded by the Spirit Master.

It can enhance the talents of mortals, make them more focused in practice and combat, and greatly improve their efficiency. It is especially effective for psychic powers. Sparks of inspiration often burst out in their thinking, and they can have the creativity that mortals only dream of, and become true geniuses.

Having the Sigil of Wisdom can be regarded as the chosen one by the Spiritual Lord.

 At the same time, it is also more dangerous.

 Because the Sigil of Wisdom will erode the mind faster and accelerate the believer's path to self-destruction.

"If you are interested in the Spiritual Lord's sacrificial ceremony, I can arrange one for you." Su Ziyou said, "The ceremony requires a special venue and Spiritual Lord believers, including sacrifices, which can also be prepared for you. You only need to pay Ether Crystal will do.”

 Even the sacrifices were arranged!

This sacrificial ceremony sounds like a one-stop service. Su Ziyou definitely can't handle it alone. He is just the introducer.

Ji Xinghuo thought to himself and asked, "How many ether crystals do you need?"

“The price ranges from 300 to 2,000 ether crystals.” Su Ziyou replied, “It depends on your needs.”

 This statement is even more straightforward.

Ji Xinghuo asked directly: "Brother Su, is this the way you found?"

"That's right." Su Ziyou didn't hide anything, "You know the 'Jueluo Kingdom', right?"

Ji Xinghuo nodded.

There were many vassal states in the south of the Zhenlong Dynasty. Tianyu Royal Court was one of them, as was Jueluo Kingdom.

This star realm is located to the east of the Tianyu Royal Court. Starting from Olympia, it has to pass through the territory of the Fomalhaut tribe. It is about 12,000 kilometers away from Olympia. Its area is not large, only half of the Thousand Peaks Abyssal Forest.

"I went to Jueluo Kingdom more than ten years ago and met some spiritual believers there who were in high positions. They can provide services for sacrificial rituals." Su Ziyou said, "If you want, I can take you to Jueluo Country. Luo country."

"let me think again."

Ji Xinghuo didn’t agree, but he didn’t refuse either.

 The opportunity for expansion is very precious. You can even get two opportunities for the sacrifice ceremony of the Spirit Master, which is very attractive.

However, based on Ji Xinghuo's understanding of the Spirit Master, he must not get involved with this evil **** unless absolutely necessary.

 Whether the sacrificial ceremony is really as safe as Su Ziyou said remains a question.

"I'm just telling you that you have this opportunity. It's up to you whether you want to use it or not." Su Ziyou said.

 “Thank you, Brother Su.”

Ji Xinghuo thought about it for a few minutes and said, "If I need it in the future, I'll come back to you."

 The two of them walked out of the box without further conversation.

 The celebration party didn’t end until three o’clock in the morning, and everyone went home.

This place is very close to Weiyang Building. Ji Xinghuo hugged Zhao Manying and flew directly back to her home. Neither of them felt sleepy. They unleashed their passion and enjoyed the beautiful world between them. They didn't sleep for a while until dawn.

Before ten o'clock in the morning, Ji Xinghuo and Zhao Manying got up energetically, washed up, changed their clothes and came to Tianwu Qindu Center.

"your Highness."

Ji Xinghuo met Princess Sophia downstairs. She was accompanied by two legendary bodyguards. The three of them were in the same car. They traveled in a low-key manner and dressed in ordinary clothes.

 “Mr. Ji.”

 Sophia came forward to shake hands with Ji Xinghuo.

 From the time she answered the phone last night to now, she stayed up all night and considered many plans. When she actually saw Ji Xinghuo, she calmed down and seemed very calm.

"Please follow me." Ji Xinghuo took her upstairs into his apartment.

In the living room, Sophia greeted Zhao Manying again. Two legendary bodyguards, one standing at the door and the other standing by the window, were both from the Roman Praetorian Guards. They were as motionless as sculptures.

 After the guests and the host sat down, Ji Xinghuo didn't waste any time. He directly took out the "absolute hit" alien species and placed it on the low table in front of the sofa.

Sophia's face moved slightly, but she didn't touch it.

"your Highness…"

"Please call me Sophia." Sophia corrected with a smile on her face, "Mr. Ji, we can be considered friends, so there is no need to be so open-minded."

"Okay, Sophia." Ji Xinghuo said, "If you want this meteorite variant, in addition to the 2,000 ether crystals I offered before, I have an additional condition."

 Sophia couldn't help but sit up straight, "Please speak."

"I have a fund in the New Roman Empire, and I want to use it all to purchase ether crystals. However, I am limited by personal connections and have insufficient manpower. Moreover, I am a citizen of the Asia-Pacific Community. It is inconvenient for me to come forward for many things. I hope Sophia, you can help me. Busy." Ji Xinghuo stated his request.

“This is not difficult.” Sophia was excited. “How much money do you have?”

Ji Xinghuo replied: "200 billion Asian dollars."

 This is the amount decided to take out after discussing with Manying last night. The remaining 40 billion will be placed in the international market to purchase ether crystals in various countries.

"ah?"

 The smile on Sophia's face suddenly solidified.

She was stunned for a few seconds and said with an embarrassed look on her face: "According to the average transaction price, 200 billion Asian dollars can buy 10,000 ether crystals. The entry of such a large amount of funds will definitely push up the transaction price. I predict that at most it will only You can buy about 8,000 pieces.”

“The price doesn’t matter, as long as you can buy it,” Ji Xinghuo said.

Since this money can't be spent, no matter how expensive it is, it's a profit for me if I can exchange it for ether crystal.

 Sophia still shook her head, "There are not so many ether crystals in the global circulation market throughout the year, and even less in the empire."

Ji Xinghuo laughed.

 “What I want are those uncirculated ether crystals.”

Everyone knows the true value of the ether crystal, and they all keep it themselves, and will only sell it unless they are really short of money.

 Only a small part of the ether crystals flowing into the earth circulates in the market.

 Most of them are collected by strangers.

  Countries also have "ether crystal reserves", which are huge in number, but are difficult for ordinary people to get their hands on.

 So, this requires the identity of Princess Sophia.

With her position of power, whether it is to acquire ether crystals from strangers or directly use the reserves of the New Roman Empire, it will definitely be much more efficient than her own collection.

"Mr. Ji really gave me a difficult problem." Sophia smiled bitterly, but she couldn't say no when she saw the alien species on the table.

　Who makes you a princess? Or the Iron Emperor’s favorite princess?

Ji Xinghuo and Zhao Manying looked at each other.

“200 billion Asian dollars is too much.” Sophia said frankly, “Please forgive me that it will be difficult for me to achieve it in the short term.”

"I don't require all the money to be exchanged for ether crystals immediately. It can be traded in batches." Ji Xinghuo said, "It can't exceed three years at most." Within three years, I can afford to exchange the money for 8,000 to 10,000 ether crystals. .

 Sophia was greatly moved.

She thought about it for a long time, and finally nodded: "Okay! You give me a week, and I will give you the 2,000 ether crystals I purchased from the alien species, and I will use your funds to purchase at least 1,000 more ether crystals, for a total of 3,000 ether crystals." superior."

"make a deal!"

Ji Xinghuo smiled and shook hands with Sophia.

 “I will go back to Ivangrad now.” Sophia glanced at the alien reluctantly and left in a hurry.

I caught a cold in the shower yesterday and fell asleep in a daze. I still have a headache today and the coding conditions at home are not good. I will go back to the city tomorrow and stable updates should be restored the day after tomorrow.
