Chapter 137: Goblins Are All Unscrupulous
The two chatted leisurely and soon returned to the front of the five-clawed golden dragon pillar.
“I thought that after passing the assessnt, I could enroll directly. I didn’t expect to wait until July 1st. Since that’s the case, we need to settle down first.”
Zi Liyuan had originally planned to stay in Dragon Academy after passing the assessnt, taking advantage of the subsidiary resources to level up quickly while waiting for the official start of school.
Unexpectedly, official enrollnt wasn’t until July 1st, leaving almost 20 days in between.
“How do you plan to arrange accommodations for Fan Yuer and her three sisters?”
Shen Yurou had just asked about this. Freshman students couldn’t easily leave the academy after enrolling, and getting permission to go out required a leave of absence, which was hard to get approved.
“Buy a villa, then build an underground alchemy laboratory—and for any alchemy materials you desire, just purchase them directly.”
“Sounds like you’re planning to stash your beauties in a golden house.”
Seeing soone’s resentful gaze, Zi Liyuan felt an inexplicable chill down his spine and quickly changed the subject.
“We’ll also establish a ch workshop for you. When the ti cos, I’ll prepare whatever materials you need. You just focus on researching black tech at ho.”
“Hmph, jerk!”
Entering the Sea of Realms, one not only needs a huge amount of resources, but also to cultivate and attract a team that serves oneself.
But Shen Yurou herself was short on resources and had to continuously research technological knowledge, with no ti to recruit the talents she needed.
Moreover, she was attached to Zi Liyuan, having been bamboozled by his smooth talk and signing a dubious contract.
Thinking of this, she felt so irritated her teeth itched, wishing she could bite this stinky jerk to ensure he’d never flirt around again!
“I heard that Dragon City has the largest official mall with a myriad of strange goods. Once we settle down, we can go check it out together. Perhaps we can buy many interesting things and accumulate a lot of technological knowledge.”
Automatically filtering out certain words, Zi Liyuan continued to speak without changing his expression.
“That might be good to check out. I hope to acquire various technological creations from Goblins, Gnos, Dwarfs, and the chanical Race, especially Goblin Demonic Energy cha items, Gno chanical Running Bird Series items, and Dwarf firearms series items.”
The reason he didn’t ntion the chanical Race was that any item from this race, even the smallest gadget, could contain technology far more advanced than anything on Blue Star.
Yet items from the chanical Race were rarely externalized, especially those with cutting-edge technology. Getting ahold of them was incredibly difficult.
“Why don’t you want Goblin bomb items?”
Goblins were unique in their blasting capabilities, and Zi Liyuan had seen many Goblin-made bomb props in the market.
“No! Those unscrupulous creatures produce all their military explosives with defects: highly unstable. Studying their bomb technology, I’m afraid I’ll blow myself up one day.”
Thinking of Goblin bombs made Shen Yurou feel utterly depressed.
Once, she had bought several of varying quality to study, but during the analysis, one bomb spontaneously exploded, destroying many tools in her laboratory, and leaving her in a filthy ss.
Zi Liyuan fell silent.
The Goblin race was very weak, but they were exceedingly clever. By relying on various technologies, especially Demonic Energy technology, they managed to rise up and control a Realm Territory in the Sea of Realms.
But Goblins have a deep-rooted characteristic of greed, and their favorite saying is, “Ti is money.”
These guys, when manufacturing military arms for sale, often skimp on the materials, or even replace them with inferior products, so the arms they sell have a very poor reputation. However, because their prices are relatively cheap, there are still many buyers.
Of course, while these green-skinned creatures are inherently greedy and the military arms they sell are low-end products, items related to demonic energy technology or demonic energy cha are rarely found outside their community.
To get one’s hands on a demonic energy cha, one would either have to turn to the military to see if they have any stored away from looted dungeons or contact Dragon Academy to reach out to the bigwigs behind them in the Sea of Realms through a Realm Territory lord.
The two walked through a spatial gate that resembled a curtain of water and when they appeared, they were in a spacious small plaza.
(〃ﾟAﾟ)(´ﾟдﾟ`)
The two looked at each other in confusion, then simultaneously took out their guiding jade tokens to check.
“Damn, can the sa portal actually have different entry and exit points?!”
“We’re still on the edge of the North District, but we’re two streets away from the entrance of Dragon Academy.”
The guiding jade token revealed a complete map of the northern district of Dragon City and even had a positioning function that showed their current location.
“Xiao Yurou, is this guiding jade token also a product of technology? Can you analyze it?”
Zi Liyuan was jealous of this satellite-like positioning function.
“Can’t analyze it, the guiding jade token is protected by so kind of array, and it’s not a technological artifact. It’s more like sothing crafted with mystical fantasy alchemy.”
Shen Yurou shook her head; she too coveted this function, but alas, it wasn’t a chanical product, so her talent couldn’t decipher it.
“Forget it, let’s go. Call Fan Yuer and the others; we’re going to buy a villa first.”
Zi Liyuan had sold off all the property and so small businesses in Jiangnan Province, and he currently had a balance of 600 million Dragon Coins, with a pile of blue and silver equipnt still unsold in his spatial backpack.
So, he didn’t give a damn about the ridiculously high housing prices in Dragon City.
The two quickly returned to the largest hotel in Dragon City, Great Xia Hotel, called out Fan Yuer and her sisters, and chartered a six-seater nanny car to start house hunting in the North District.
The North District of Dragon City is a very special area; because Dragon Academy is located here, the great clans and noble families have built their manors in this region.
The housing prices here are the highest in the entire Dragon City; a 320-square-ter standalone villa cost him a staggering 200 million Dragon Coins.
But it was considered worth the price, as the villa’s basent contained an expanded spatial layer with a 1,000-square-ter open space, which t their need to establish an alchemy laboratory and a chanical workshop.
The next step was to find a decorating company to help set up a well-equipped laboratory.
As for the equipnt needed for the laboratory, Zi Liyuan dragged them all to the official marketplace.
Since anything they bought could be placed into the spatial backpack, everyone went on a shopping spree, causing Zi Liyuan’s wallet to significantly shrink again.
After three busy days, the 600 million Dragon Coins he had on arrival plumted in a dramatic dive, leaving only 150 million.
Indeed, the saying holds true: spending money on a woman is like water flowing, like the Yellow River flooding, endless and unceasing.
