179: Chapter 179: The Charm of Synthetic Diamonds 179: Chapter 179: The Charm of Synthetic Diamonds Seeing Ocoro’s deanor, Zhao Guang knew that this fellow was hinting at wanting art pieces.
These items, as long as he could carry them with him, he would never part with them.
Otherwise, if Yars saw them, they would definitely be confiscated, and what would happen afterward would depend on their content.
After all, it was true that nobles liked art, and Yars was no exception, or else he wouldn’t fit in.
However, the art, as interpreted by Ocoro was just too bizarre, too distorted, too disgusting.
“Here, these are the pieces I’ve managed to collect recently.”
Zhao Guang murmured an apology internally because he had forgotten about these items recently and had taken them from old stock.
He needed to remind his older sister to hurry and send over whatever she had collected on her end.
“Great, great, my inspiration is about to burst forth.”
Ocoro hadn’t seed this excited when he saw the painkillers; the man was practically draped over the books.
Zhao Guang took a glance; all were very normal patterns.
As for how Ocoro would interpret and use them, that was no longer his concern, as the thods of using art were personal, weren’t they?
“Speaking of which, there’s another thing I need your help with.”
“What is it, hurry and tell ,” Ocoro said impatiently, even though he was conversing with Zhao Guang, his eyes were gleaming as he stared at the book.
There were no words, but the patterns were very clear.
Zhao Guang was speechless.
Was art really that captivating?
Truthfully, Zhao Guang didn’t understand, and he guessed he might never understand in his lifeti.
He valued practical significance more.
If it had no use, what’s so-called art was worthless in Zhao Guang’s eyes.
“It’s about these, check out these Magic Crystal Stones.”
Zhao Guang waved his hand and took out a large quantity of artificial diamonds.
At this, Ocoro’s gaze finally shifted.
“What did you say?
These are all Magic Crystal Stones?
Are you sure you’re not mistaken?”
There are two types of Magic Crystal Stones: so powerful Magic Beasts can condense them internally, but these are generally known as Demon Cores.
The other type cos from natural minerals, which are actually diamonds.
The natural Magic Crystal Stones have a very unique function, they can at least be used to store and release Magic Power.
If modified, they can also be crafted into various Magic Items, making them extrely versatile.
Initially, Zhao Guang had examined his Magic Wand closely, the three tiny Crystal Stones on it were Magic Crystal Stones.
Initially, he didn’t realize these were the sa as diamonds, but upon closer inspection, it seed they were.
After all, through material identification on Earth, those Magic Crystal Stones were confird to be diamonds.
“I am very sure, but because of their special origin, I don’t know if they can be used.”
Zhao Guang didn’t say everything; after all, they were artificially made.
If these were different from the natural ones, he still had so leeway for maneuvering.
Ocoro stood up and looked carefully at them, then after a long while, he lifted his head.
“From the surface, these indeed appear to be Magic Crystal Stones, but whether they really are can only be confird through specialized authentication.
After all, you aren’t a Mage, and I don’t have that talent either.”
“I’ve decided to take them to the Mages to see what they think,” Ocoro said cautiously.
These stones were rarer than gold, even though this world had a relatively large output, but they still couldn’t compare to gold and other minerals, especially since these could not be forged.
They are as big as they are, and for so special uses, the Magic Crystal Stones must be sufficiently large.
“Of course, you can take them and experint.
I’ve brought a batch with , take them all.
If they really prove useful, I can continue to procure more, and we can keep trading.”
“Alright, consider this a favor you’ve done for .
If anything troubleso cos up later, just call on .
I have many friends.”
“What are we, if not to help each other?
No need to owe any favors,” Zhao Guang said, smiling as he shook hands with Ocoro.
Previous transactions were just the tip of the iceberg.
It was the painkillers that truly won Ocoro over.
It had to be said, Ocoro might seem offbeat, but winning his approval was truly not easy.
It wasn’t until now, as he produced a large quantity of Magic Crystal Stones, that their relationship finally cented.
Because handling these Magic Crystal Stones, if they indeed proved useful, then Ocoro would reap huge benefits.
By then, even if he had to split from his family and stand on his own, there would absolutely be no issue.
He was confident that with this opportunity, he could establish a great family, on par with his original family.
That ti, he’d make sure Yars knew how insignificant he truly was.
Zhao Guang waved his hand, presenting all the artificial diamonds he was carrying.
At this, even Ocoro was shocked: “These, all of these?” This was too much; such a huge amount of Magic Crystal Stones would be considered a vast fortune even to so Mages.
“That’s right, all of them.
There are three different types here.
My place can customize these special Magic Crystal Stones, even crafting them into special shapes is no problem.” This wasn’t just Zhao Guang bluffing.
Although crafting them into special shapes was a bit troubleso, it indeed wasn’t impossible.
“Fantastic, fantastic, with these, I’m confident I can make them bleed for once.”
“It’s not certain yet if they’re real.
If they aren’t, we’ve celebrated for nothing,” Zhao Guang hastily cautioned, trying to curb Ocoro’s excitent.
If expectations were set too high, it could lead to complications if they couldn’t be t.
Anger him, and Zhao Guang wouldn’t have anywhere else to get his Jade and Amber.
Amber might be sourced through other channels, but replacing Jade would be difficult for a while.
“I know, I know, but I just can’t help getting excited.
You don’t understand; in front of those Mages, we minor nobles usually can’t even lift our heads.
But from now on, I’ll make them look up to see .”
Was this guy really so oppressed by Mages, but still dealing with them?
Never mind, maybe it was sothing Zhao Guang was mistaken about.
“No, these can’t stay here, we must move them imdiately.
If that fool sees them, then they’ll be out of our hands.” Suddenly, Ocoro beca agitated.
He quickly walked out and knocked on a nearby wooden panel.
No one knew what signal he sent, but soon those expressionless n in black appeared again.
“Move it all.
Keep it in my secret base, and rember, don’t let anyone see,” he instructed.
The n nodded silently, without a word, they swiftly moved the goods.
But Zhao Guang felt a bit awkward; these n seed more suited to be assassins, yet he kept using them as carriers.
What was he thinking?
