Ant Lord in the Star Realm

Chapter 1040: Chapter 700: Star Casting

The hard ground, the shabby Star Spider, clattered as it ran.

Dragon Cypress couldn’t help but ask, "Poison Bean, how much does a brand new Star Spider cost?"

"1.2 million Primordial Crystals!"

Poison Bean sighed, "I want to buy it, but my loan limit isn’t enough. The bit of Primordial Crystals I’ve earned all got snatched by White Ivy."

White Ivy, who was riding on the same Star Spider, got annoyed and said, "Me, White Ivy, a lifetime of fame, how did I end up with such a foolish descendant!"

Dragon Cypress: "..."

Dragon Cypress: "It’s nothing. Small matter. We insects are all about big business. When we make our fortune, I’ll get you a brand new one."

Poison Bean suggested, "Dragon Cypress Ant King, go to the Luoli Chamber of Commerce, you can buy a First Level Star Spider!"

Dragon Cypress asked curiously, "What’s the price?"

Poison Bean: "1-1 light type, can reach the speed of light, with intelligent assistance, from Twisted Blue Star to the other four life planets, you can lock the destination with consciousness, complete charging, and you’ll be there in no time."

"But it doesn’t have Law Space. The cabin space is about the same as the one I’m using now, core load 7 insects, priced at 12 million Primordial Crystals."

No Space?

Simplified crude model?

"Oh—"

Dragon Cypress immediately lost interest.

Poison Bean suggested, "For First Level Star Spider passengers, the starting price is 3 Primordial Crystals! More goods, or larger size, add 2 more! This means, by carrying an Insect Clan Warrior, you can earn 3 to 5 Primordial Crystals on a trip."

"In the Venus Star System, there are many profitable insects too, they prefer riding First Level Starships, fast! High-end! Classy!"

White Ivy, in despair, said angrily, "How did I end up with such an unambitious descendant! Driving a Star Spider for passengers, such a low-end job, and you got addicted?"

Poison Bean argued, "Chairman White Ivy, don’t you often visit various Great Tribes? I specifically drive a First Level Star Spider for pick-up and drop-off, let’s see who dares to look down on you."

"Eh—"

White Ivy pondered, then said seriously, "Poison Bean, what you said has some truth, but for now, we’re quite tight, let’s consider it when we make it rich!"

Ink Orchid voiced interest, "Can’t Dragon Cypress and I drive a Star Spider?"

"You can!"

"But it’s not for sale here in the Venus Star System, too expensive."

Poison Bean explained, "You don’t have Spatial Talent, and need an Origin Force conversion core to transform ordinary Primordial Energy into Spatial Primordial Energy. The cost of this device is too high, it’s used at minimum in 1-3 type Star Spiders, just like the Star Spiders from our Home Planet picking us up."

Ink Orchid nervously asked, "How many Primordial Crystals?"

Poison Bean: "Prices vary, mainly depending on whether it has Law Space and the size of the space. The cheapest is over a hundred million Primordial Crystals. With space, starting at three hundred million."

Ink Orchid: "..."

Ink Orchid: "That’s too expensive, right?"

Poison Bean: "No choice. Too strict production conditions. Must be like Chairman White Ivy, a legitimate Flame Spider Roving Merchant granted with Shanglu Divine Pattern from Shanglu Divine Tree, who has transformed Shanglu Divine Pattern into Star Marks, and comprehended it as a core ability for growth evolution to a certain level, and the evolution level beyond Habitat Realm, to learn how to equip a Star Spider with a ’Spatial Device’ and grant ’Law Space’ ability."

Poison Bean got excited as he spoke.

"So, when everyone evolves higher in the future, and ventures into the Three Major Star Systems, if bankrupt again, Chairman White Ivy can still go to the Star Spider production base to work off the debt, it’s a technical job..."

Bankrupt?

That’s a sensitive word.

"Poison Bean!"

White Ivy got upset, immediately planning to reprimand.

Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid quickly intervened.

Don’t claw inside the Star Spider’s cabin, for now, we can’t afford a new one...

Dragon Cypress shifted the topic, asking, "White Ivy, I’ve always wanted to ask, what’s the temperament of the Shield Grasshopper Tribe’s Mountain Maple Ancestor? How’s their strength? Evolution level?"

White Ivy responded with a question, "You’re familiar with the management system of Huagi Mountain, right?"

Dragon Cypress: "What system?"

White Ivy: "Each generation has three leaders, the main leader arranges tribe duties, coordinates externally; the left leader specializes in combat and external wars; the right leader is responsible for the tribe’s farming and external trade."

Dragon Cypress: "Of course, I know that."

White Ivy: "The leader position at Huagi Mountain rotates every 200 to 300 years. Mountain Maple is the 50th main leader, came to Venus Star System seven thousand years ago. Current evolution level Star Marks Realm, serves as deputy leader at Huagi Chamber of Commerce. Combat strength unknown. As for personality, considered a more amiable elder."

Dragon Cypress: "Very generous?"

White Ivy: "It’s okay. Mountain Maple has two God-Given Life Seeds, the Divine-Given Origin Force Food they produce is all handled by me, one of the Mountain Maple Blessed Seeds reached Nine Traces Realm, quite good. But, if you don’t arrive soon, Mountain Maple might not believe me about the Shield Grasshopper Little Warriors and may decide I’m lying and end our relationship."

Dragon Cypress: "Can’t wait five or six hundred years? Seems a bit impatient."

White Ivy: "Impatient? Didn’t notice. Perhaps just too bored being alone as an insect."

Dragon Cypress: "Has Huagi Chamber of Commerce completely left the Home Planet more than four thousand years ago? So that means on the Home Planet, when the last Origin Force cycle ended, confirming Huagi, Quandong, and Linnan’s Divine Trees won’t come over, they left?"

"Pretty much..."

White Ivy explained, "Heard that Huagi Chamber of Commerce has a Divine God-Given Seed named ’Heavenly Frost,’ quite remarkable, evolution level reached Star Realm, the Divine Grade Fruit it produces grants Water Element Talent, and additionally, has an ice frost type Law Ability named ’Heavenly Frost’..."

"Law Ability?"

Ink Orchid interrupted, confused.

White Ivy: "Didn’t I mention? Divine Grade is Nature True God altering the Home Planet’s laws of all things, mimicking Law Divine Tree’s product, possessing a trace of Law Divine Tree traits. After evolving to Evolution Star Realm, the Divine God-Given Seed’s Divine-Grade Fruit transforms, if granting ability, then like Law Divine Tree, can directly condense a ’Trace’."
