Cosmic Trading System

Chapter 404: The Gold Star



One day... two days... three days...

Over these three days, Lin Yun continuously visited various minor celestial bodies in the starry sky, totaling over twenty in number.

On three or four of these minor celestial bodies, he found resources worth only a few hundred to a few thousand Spirit Crystals. On seven or eight, the resources were worth ten thousand to a few tens of thousands of Spirit Crystals.

The resources on the other minor celestial bodies were all worth more than one hundred thousand Spirit Crystals. The richest of them even amounted to a value of more than eight hundred thousand Spirit Crystals.

In addition, Lin Yun released a large-scale detection device to easily probe for resources on some celestial bodies in this galaxy.

It was safe to assume that this galaxy was truly a rich land of resources.

Not counting the previous collections, Lin Yun had harvested resources worth more than three million nine hundred thousand Spirit Crystals in the last three days alone.

If combined with his previous collections, Lin Yun's harvest over these past few days had again exceeded ten million Spirit Crystals.

However, most of his collections were resources that had yet to be turned into cash.

"Maybe I should liquefy some resources? Then purchase another robot with the power equivalent to a Martial Artist at the Dazzling Star Realm? If I had another hand in resource collection, the harvest could be more significant," Lin Yun pondered.

But, the number of resources was fixed. It was only a matter of collecting it sooner or later...

Perhaps, he should save up thirty million Spirit Crystals and then buy a robot with the power equivalent to a Martial Artist at the Mid Term Realm of the Dazzling Star Realm?

That way, his energy consumption during each teleportation across the starry sky would considerably lessen.

This would truly be a form of conserving resources!

These days, Star One consumed energy worth about three hundred thousand Spirit Crystals. This wasn't a small number. Visiting minor celestial bodies deficient in resources was almost done at a loss.

Had this place not been a rich land of resources, doing so in an environment like Star Blue's would have resulted in almost a hundred percent loss.

Such a method wasn't sustainable in the long run. Initially, he thought letting Star One teleport for short distances would not consume much more energy than a spaceship moving through the starry sky. Now he realized there was a world difference in the energy consumption between the two methods.

But this method was way faster.

Only someone like him, with such a bounty, would dare to squander resources like this.

If it were a owner of the Cosmic Trading System like Star Blue who did this, they would go bankrupt.

But, if he increased the robot's level to the Mid Term of the Dazzling Star Realm, his energy consumption would be reduced by at least two-thirds, maybe even more. The energy he had spent on teleportations these days might've been less than one hundred thousand Spirit Crystals!

That could save him over two hundred thousand Spirit Crystals!

If he had a robot at the Mid Term of the Dazzling Star Realm to confront enemies, he would have stronger coping abilities as well!

But, if he had purchased a robot with the power of a Martial Artist at the Early Term of the Dazzling Star Realm earlier, he would have had an assistant to help him collect resources earlier. After all, this galaxy was a rich land of resources. With vast resources, he may not be able to collect them all in his lifetime!

Who was he saving these resources for now?

If an enemy came, and he couldn't win the fight, he would have saved these resources for the enemy!

After collecting resources on the moon, he quickly obtained resources worth ten million Spirit Crystals. He didn't know how long it would take him to accumulate resources worth thirty million Spirit Crystals!

If he purchased a robot with the power of a Martial Artist at the Early Term of the Dazzling Star Realm to help him collect resources now, the efficiency would double, and he would be able to purchase the next robot with power at the Early Term of the Dazzling Star Realm quicker!

When he purchased another robot with power at the Early Term of the Dazzling Star Realm to help him collect resources, the efficiency would further improve, and he would acquire the one after that even faster!

This was a virtuous cycle. The speed at which he could obtain resources was certainly better than saving thirty million Spirit Crystals to buy a robot with power at the Mid Term of the Dazzling Star Realm!

"Huh?"

Just as Lin Yun was mulling over this, he was suddenly taken aback by what he saw ahead of him.

He noticed a small celestial body quickly approaching them. The diameter of this celestial body was only approximately one kilometer.

However, that was not why Lin Yun was surprised. What astonished him was the yellow light that the small celestial body emitted. As the sunlight shone on it, it sparkled golden. He could almost make out what it was with his naked eyes.

Gold!

Quickly, feedback from his detection equipment arrived!

"All this gold on such a large celestial body?" Lin Yun exclaimed excitedly.

Gold is a rare material in the universe, how heavy would such a large chunk of gold be? How many Spirit Crystals would it be worth?

We're rich! We're rich!

This time, we're going to be rich!

"Star One, can you immobilize this celestial body..."

Lin Yun turned his head towards Star One and asked.

This small celestial body was flying at a high speed. If they used their original method to approach it, they would probably not make it.

However, Star One possessed something like a martial artist's Domain Power, which could alter the speed of celestial bodies. Lin Yun had witnessed it before.

However, Star One was not a real Martial Artist. Depending on the change, the energy expended by Star One also differed.

Moreover, real Martial Artists also have limits to their Domain Power, just as a Martial Artist in the Dazzling Star Realm has far more Domain Power than one in the Domain Realm.

It was the same with Star One; its Domain Power couldn't change everything within its domain.

If it could, it would be a true god.

If anyone entered its domain, it could easily kill them. What would be the point of fighting then?

Obviously, that was impossible.

"My domain ranges up to ten thousand meters. It's more than enough to bring this small celestial body into it, but the body is moving too fast. It's difficult for me to hold it in place in one go. However, I can influence it each time it passes by. After doing so numerous times, it should stabilize. The issue is, this method won't be convenient for you..." Star One said, furrowing its brows.

During this time, Star One turned to look at Lin Yun.

"How many times do you think you need to influence it?" Lin Yun pondered and asked.

The gold celestial body had enormous value and happened to pass by. If they missed it, they wouldn't know when they could find something like it again. Right now, he was in the early stage of his expansion.

Obtaining a golden celestial body like this meant a lot and shouldn't be missed.

Even though danger kept cropping up in the universe, and he had seen this numerous times in the past few days, he had Lin Yu by his side, and Lin Yu was not weak either. Their safety shouldn't be an issue for a short while.

"It's hard to say, my chip doesn't have such data. We can only determine it after influencing it once. Additionally, I can adjust the degree of influence. The energy consumption would definitely differ depending on the degree of influence. From an energy perspective, it's not necessarily better to influence it significantly each time..." Star One shook its head.

"How much energy would you approximately need?" Lin Yun immediately asked upon hearing Star One mention the issue of energy consumption.

"My chip doesn't have that data either, it's hard to say. We can only determine it approximately by influencing it once. Although, based on my current data, the energy consumption isn't going to be small; the energy of several hundred thousand Spirit Crystals might not be enough," Star One pondered aloud.

"If Master's supply of Spirit Crystals is not sufficient, I suggest we strike it and break it apart. I'm confident there'll still be something left. " After a pause, Star One continued.

"You should go take a look, first establish some data. As I have Lin Yu by my side, I should be safe on this small planet for a short period of time," Lin Yun nodded slightly.

For celestial bodies moving at such high velocities, the consequences of breaking them apart are unpredictable. Plus, at that time, it would be difficult for him to collect the scattered gold. Perhaps the energy Star One uses to teleport over there would be even greater and more wasteful than not attempting to collect the gold at all.

Unless absolutely necessary, he didn't want Star One to do this.

In the meantime, Lin Yun began rapidly replenishing Star One's energy blocks.

He placed some in the consumption chamber on Star One's body, and some in the space items on Star One.

In total, they were worth a million Spirit Crystals.

"Alright, Master, wait for my update." Star One nodded.

In the next moment, Star One disappeared and began quickly teleporting towards the distant gold celestial body.
