Astral Gods

Chapter 21 Large-scale Purchase

The Flame Spider Warrior, still enthusiastic after completing a transaction with Lord Purple Plum, continued to promote its wares to Lord Purple Plum: "Respected Rhinoceros Beetle Lord, do you see if there's anything else you need on our stall? We guarantee to sell it to you at a very reasonable price."

Lord Purple Plum looked at their stalls and saw that there were indeed many things there, some of which he had never even seen before.

Without any hesitation, it said directly, "Little Flame Spider, tell me about the items on your stall. If there's anything I like, I'll buy it."

Upon hearing Lord Zi Li's words, the high-ranking Flame Spider Warrior was overjoyed and immediately began to recommend to Lord Zi Li: "Honorable Rhinoceros Beetle Warrior, we have many items on our stall, most of which are byproducts of the insectoid warriors' life-seed production."

For example, the spider silk bags produced by our Flame Spider tribe, or the Force Honey produced by the Bee Clan, as well as the God-given Force Honey, are all very reasonably priced.

"Would you like some Force Honey? This honey is incredibly delicious and perfect for entertaining guests, especially for a noble lord like yourself. It's only 1000 Primogems per kilogram right now, a very reasonable price."

Lord Purple Plum waved his tentacles: "I don't want it, my tribe has some."

Every year, the Snow Bear Bee Queen in the tribe produces dozens of kilograms of Force Honey. Most of this honey is divided among the lords and the Armor King, and it is indeed quite delicious.

"Alright," the Flame Spider Merchant said, not discouraged by the failed sales pitch.

It then took out a jar, opened it, and revealed an oil product inside: "This is tung oil extracted from tung trees within the territory of a Mountain Lord-level Zerg warrior."

Applying this tung oil to the carapace adds a certain degree of shine, effectively preventing wind and rain damage and greatly enhancing the appearance of the Zerg warriors.

Especially for a mighty beetle warrior like yourself, you should take good care of your body and enhance your power. This is even cheaper than Force Honey, only 200 Primogems a jar. Would you like a jar?

Looking at the glistening tung oil, and then at his own somewhat dull carapace, Lord Purple Plum was tempted: "Give me two jars, I should take care of myself a bit."

Seeing that another product had been successfully sold, the Flame Spider Warrior was overjoyed: "Want some insect glue secreted by the Rainbow Ground Beetle Warrior? Applying this to your body will give you excellent camouflage in the jungle, and it's guaranteed not to fade for one or two years."

Lord Zili decisively refused: "I don't want anything too flashy."

Okay, the Flame Spider Warrior then proceeded to promote another product...

It brought out a lot of things, including perfume made by the butterfly warriors using divinely bestowed pollen, which could make the fragrance linger for a long time when sprayed on oneself.

There is also a special resin produced by the divinely bestowed seed, which can isolate air and oxygen, making it suitable for the long-term preservation of the particularly precious Force Fruit.

In addition, they also have items such as Force liquor brewed by Orc warriors.

Some Purple Plum Lords need it, some don't; the high-level Flame Spider Warriors introduced it to many things.

However, this does not mean the end, but only the beginning.

After introducing a whole host of things, the Flame Spider Warrior said, "These are all byproducts produced by the Zerg warriors themselves. Now, I'll introduce you to some unique treasures that are naturally formed in the natural world."

He took out a jar, unscrewed it, showed it to Lord Zili, then screwed it back on, and said eloquently, "This jar contains a spring water with primal force, which we call the primal liquid."

Pouring the undiluted liquid onto the Life Seed can accelerate its growth to some extent. The exact speed depends on the amount you pour; one jar of undiluted liquid costs 100 Primal Stones.

Lord Purple Plum was greatly intrigued by the words of the Flame Spider Merchant. He had just scanned it with his mental senses and found that it was indeed a liquid containing primal force. Compared to the previous flashy things, this was truly practical. For them, strengthening life seeds and increasing life seed production was the ultimate goal.

"Give me 20 bottles of this stock solution, no, 50 bottles!"

"Okay." Having completed another transaction, the high-ranking Flame Spider Warrior happily took out another item: "Want some Force Fertilizer? This is fertilizer produced by an earthworm warrior that lives in our tribe and eats the residue of Force Fruits."

This fertilizer is suitable for all species and can increase their output to a certain extent. Like the original solution, the amount of increased output depends on the amount of fertilizer you apply.

If you have specific needs, we can also customize special soil fertilizer, whether it's elemental, strength, or life-based fertilizer, we can make it.

"This kind of fertilizer is cheap, only ten raw stones per kilogram. If we hadn't come by cargo ship, we wouldn't have brought this kind of fertilizer at all."

Lord Zili hesitated for a moment: "Give me a thousand catties of this as well."

"Okay, do you want Force Gems? We have all kinds of elements, which are perfect for replenishing the Force of the Seed of God, saving them the time to absorb Force and indirectly speeding up their absorption of Force."

Especially suitable for use during the evolution of Divine Seeds, greatly reducing the risk of evolution failure. At only five Primal Stones per stone, it's absolutely excellent value for money.

"Yes, yes!" Lord Zi Li was like a big spender. Listening to the various basic Origin Force items that the Flame Spider Merchant was offering, which were beneficial to the production of Destiny Seeds, he was practically waving his tentacles around. In no time, he had spent forty or fifty thousand Origin Stones at the stall.

Just when Lord Zili and Zishan thought the matter was almost over, the Flame Spider Merchant took out a few more items.

It opened a long, cylindrical object with a transparent lens at the front, and the object emitted a dazzling light that made the surroundings even brighter during the day.

The high-ranking Flame Spider warrior enthusiastically introduced it to Lord Purple Plum: "This is an extraterrestrial artifact called a flashlight. It can be used to illuminate the night. It uses a solar energy source to recharge. Once it runs out of energy, simply place it in the sun for a day to recharge it. It only costs 5 primal stones to buy one. Would you like one?"

Upon hearing the other party's words, Lord Zili shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, this is too expensive."

Lord Purple Plum is not wealthy either, although it has a divinely bestowed tree seed that produces a considerable annual yield.

However, it has a large group of younger relatives, both big and small, that it needs to take care of. It subsidizes some small expenses, such as buying spider silk bags, which it takes back and distributes for free.

Besides, it also needs to grow in a planned way, and it's the kind of thing that would rather break the raw stone in half to spend it all. It's not worth spending 5 raw stones to buy a flashy but impractical extraterrestrial artifact.

"It's not expensive at all," the high-ranking Flame Spider Warrior enthusiastically promoted. "Dear Rhinoceros Beetle Lord, don't underestimate it; it's quite useful."

As everyone knows, plants need photosynthesis to grow, and their growth almost stops at night. However, the light emitted by a flashlight is almost identical to that of sunlight.

If you use it to expose your seed to sunlight for three to four hours at night every day, it's equivalent to accelerating the growth of your seed by one-third.

If you accelerate your growth by one-third every day, how much growth will you achieve over a year or ten years?

Our Flame Spider tribe has conducted experiments. If we use the original liquid combined with primal force fertilizer, along with the light from a flashlight, simultaneously fulfilling the needs for light, soil nutrients, and primal force, we can more than double the growth rate of the life seed.

"Moreover, your tribe's warriors certainly have more than one Life Seed. It can provide light to one or more God-given Seeds, making it an item that is absolutely worth more than its weight in gold."

Upon hearing the Flame Spider Warrior's words, Lord Purple Plum immediately hesitated: "Then... then let's have one try."

The Flame Spider Merchant is also despicable; he first recommends some inexpensive and light-weight items to entice them to buy.

After you've spent a lot of raw stones, they'll recommend more practical items that you'll be forced to buy, so you'll end up spending tens of thousands of raw stones at this stall all at once.

When the Flame Spider Warrior tried to push the deal further, Lord Purple Plum coughed and said, "Well, let's trade first, let's trade first. I need to go look at other things next."

"Alright," the Flame Spider Warrior clicked its tongue regretfully, though it was confident it could sell a few more items.

But seeing the other party's attitude, they had no choice but to stop and, with a slight regret, began to take out the items to be traded and complete the transaction.
