Chapter 709: Chapter 709
After destroying the Blood Lotus base, the three of them continued on their way. This time they didn’t encounter any trouble. The only base Blood Lotus had here was now gone, they would have to find them first if they wanted to retaliate. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝘯𝘦𝘵
As for when Blood Lotus might return to establish another base here, that was something no one knew. Du You himself didn’t even know if he would return to this city, considering his own development path involved building his own city.
The trio finally arrived at a city with an airship station, and after verifying their identities, they entered.
"What a big city, much bigger than the one you live in, Master."
Lin Yucha also chimed in: "This city is filled with a sci-fi atmosphere. That over there looks like an airship. They’re quite rare, even in the Capital." She pointed to the distance.
Du You also saw the large streamlined object in the distance, another piece of black technology from some other world. He believed this airship could surely fly into outer space, though how far it could actually reach was uncertain.
It is said that the largest airship had its own breeding system that could keep generations of people alive within it.
The one in front of them was not so extravagant, but its existence was a testament to the strength of the city.
"This is after all, a Tier 3 city of the alliance. The city where I come from is merely a bottom tier city in the alliance, quite the difference." Du You’s city was not small, but it was less powerful in comparison.
That’s why his city held the lowest ranking, Tier 1. This Tier 3 city before them could definitely be considered a major metropolis. Looking at the patrolling robots on the street, these were all Tier 3.
If a fight were to break out, Du You couldn’t guarantee I could take them on, even with just a small squad of these Tier 3 robots.
The weapons created by machines were strong in both their offense and defense. If it wasn’t for the need for specific occupations to operate them in the Other World and the difficulty in replenishing ammunition, technology weapons would undeniably be the most powerful.
The trio didn’t linger, heading straight to the airship station to purchase tickets. What frustrated Du You was that the earliest flight wouldn’t be departing until three days later, leaving him with no choice but to wait in the city.
"Let’s take advantage of these three days and explore the city."
At Du You’s words, the two sisters immediately cheered.
The next day, Du You came across a lucky find on the Magic Network — someone was selling a Celestial Star Bottle, something he was in need of. But upon seeing the terms for the trade, he was slightly vexed: "So that’s why no one has bought this Celestial Star Bottle yet."
It turned out that the seller wanted a lineage in return, and not just any lineage; it had to be of high grade, or at least present significant potential. A powerful lineage was worth much more than a single Celestial Star Bottle.
Celestial Star Bottles were rare, but not impossible to find. Lineages, on the other hand, while abundant, powerful lineages and lineages with vast potential were rare, much rarer than Celestial Star Bottles. While Celestial Star Bottles were used by few, lineages were useful to almost everyone, no wonder no one wanted to make the trade.
After giving it some thought, Du You decided to contact the seller anyway, showing him the Earth Dragon lineage: "I have an Earth Dragon lineage here. You know how high the potential of Dragon Clan lineage is, your Celestial Star Bottle is not worth equal value."
To his surprise, the enigmatic seller responded indifferently, "Take it or leave it, I’m not in a hurry." Du You’s eyebrows furrowed; this explained the poor reviews in the comments section.
He even began to suspect that the man didn’t actually want to make the trade. His nonchalant attitude and unreasonable request were nothing short of irritating. But the truth remained that Celestial Star Bottles were indeed a rare commodity.
He was advancing rapidly and had saved up enough Crystal Coins. Once he got used to it, he would be able to level up to level 30 at any time, then take on the challenge of advancing to the fourth tier.
Before the task began, he needed to have the Celestial Star Bottle ready, or he would miss his opportunity. Du You didn’t want to wait until his own advancement to the seventh tier before he could level up the sisters’ star ranking, that would delay too many things.
Although the Earth Dragon lineage was precious, Du You himself didn’t need it. It was entirely intended for exchange anyway.
After a long while, Du You gritted his teeth: "Fine, deal." Du You made a mental note of the man’s ID, vowing to have him pay with interest in the future.
"Deal, huh, and you said I wouldn’t be able to sell it. I told you something as valuable as this wouldn’t be priced low by outsiders." The man mumbled under his breath, but Du You still managed to catch it.
This man just didn’t know the real value of the item, or perhaps he was simply too arrogant.
It was helpless. Some people were just like that. When they got hold of something special, they thought it was the most extraordinary item in the world. These people always thought that the world revolved around them.
Just bear with it, a small loss was still acceptable. Receiving the Celestial Star Bottle, beneficial for himself, overall his assistance had increased. After the trade was done, Du You didn’t want to say another word, and vanished from sight.
Upon returning, Du You said to the sisters, "See, I’ve exchanged for a new Celestial Star Bottle. Just need to find another Alien Beast Soul now, and I’ll be able to help you two upgrade your star levels when we advance."
The legendary 9-star level, although not born originating from 9 stars, there were definitely not many who managed to achieve it through various means. Their team had now become the stuff of legends.
The two sisters exchanged glances. Their Master was surely a 9-star, otherwise why would he need only two? It was clear he was preparing them for the two of them. Both of them sat next to Du You, giving him a soft kiss. "Master, you’re so kind."
"Now that you know how good your Master is, how about we try some new positions tonight?"
Both sisters blushed, spat at him then ran out.
Du You burst into laughter, causing the sisters to run even faster.
The three days flew by. Du You had been searching on the Magic Network for those three days but couldn’t find any worthwhile trades. He pondered if it was due to his luck being depleted. There was no more time today, as they were supposed to fly out on the airship.
It was the same airplane as the last time, with no substantial differences. The three of them confidently walked into the cabin, waiting for departure. When the time came, the airplane began to ascend and accelerate.
Under the force of tremendous power, the speed of the airplane increased steadily. At that moment, a small black dot in the distance moved rapidly towards them. "Look, what’s that?"
