Chapter 310: Silver-colored 【Mirage Dragon Transformation Pearl】
Chapter 310: Silver-colored 【Mirage Dragon Transformation Pearl】
Even though he had seen it many times before, when Dekein saw the silver-colored legendary artifact again, his eyes were still involuntarily drawn to it, as if this black pearl was everything in the world.
【Mirage Dragon Pearl】, as the name suggests, it is a dragon pearl transformed from a pure-blooded mirage dragon.
According to the records of the Northern Sea Royal Court, it was obtained by the first Northern Sea True King by chance, but at that time, it was only a red-colored artifact. Later, after being nurtured by the first and second Northern Sea True Kings for a long time, it was transformed into a silver-colored legendary artifact.
Dekein looked at the pearl, then bowed respectfully to the Northern Sea Female King, his mother. He knew that making this decision required great courage and that it was a sign of trust from his mother.
He must not disappoint his mother!
With a silent vow, he put the pearl into his storage capsule and quickly turned around.
……
In the Heavenly Market, after waiting for almost an hour, Song Chi thought that the half-step fourth-rank Naga would not come back. However, the other party finally returned.
Seeing that the Naga went straight to the artifact exchange shop, Song Chi's interest was piqued. He focused his attention on the Naga, and two attribute panels soon appeared before him.
【Artifact: Mirage Dragon Pearl】
【Quality: Silver】
【Can be transformed into: {Mirage Dragon Transformation Pearl}】
【Note: A dragon pearl transformed from a pure-blooded mirage dragon, nurtured by two half-step seventh-rank life forms for ten thousand years, finally transformed into a silver-colored legendary artifact.】
……
Mirage Dragon Transformation Pearl LV0
Quality: Silver
Properties: Omniscient, Mirage Image
Property 3: Priority of all component effects +1000
Property 4: Mirage Dragon's Spiritual Pressure
Consumption: 30/s (Dark Energy Points)
Effect: When the warship is affected by all illusions, illusions, etc., it will automatically reduce their power by 20%.
No need to charge or buffer.
Upgrade: 30 strands of Floating Land Origin (Zeroth Rank), 3000 Dark Energy Points, 1kg of Mirage Stone
{Omniscient: Consume 50,000 Dark Energy Points, change the warship's appearance and color according to the captain's will, and temporarily change the warship's name. The effect will last until the captain cancels it, with a buffer time of 12 hours.}
{Mirage Image: Consume 50,000 Dark Energy Points, create a mirage image of the warship, making it difficult for the enemy to track.}
This Mirage Dragon Transformation Pearl is an excellent component, with properties that far surpass the Void Membrane. It can also transform the warship's appearance and name, which can be very useful in certain situations.
Song Chi thought that he might be able to trade the golden Three-Eyed Desecrating God Cannon for other components that would be more useful for the Celestial Vessel.
He had considered this before, but now, with the Mirage Dragon Transformation Pearl, he saw a glimmer of hope. With the Omniscient, Mirage Image, and Spatial Anchor Point properties, he might be able to trade the golden artifact without revealing his identity.
(End of chapter)
As for the Song family, he wasn’t without thoughts. However, based on the clan’s current strength and resources, it would be very difficult to come up with equivalent resources or components.
Of course, the key issue was that the clan was still far from acquiring a star destroyer. The golden star destroyer cannon wasn’t a necessity, and even if he offered it, the interest from the clan’s elders might not be significant.
...
Suppressing these chaotic thoughts in his mind, he knew these matters required careful planning to determine if they were feasible, and could not be accomplished in a short time.
After all, if he truly wanted to sell the [Tri-Eye Profane Cannon], he would have to head to the Radiant Han Kingdom’s territory. In this corner of the Morning Star Principality, he lacked both the financial resources and the star destroyer. Unless he wanted to sell at a loss.
After some contemplation, Degan finally spoke.
"Lord Market Master, I wish to exchange this silver legendary artifact!"
Song Chi thought for a moment, then his mind shifted. On the projection screen in the center of the shop, a line of text appeared.
[What do you wish to exchange for?]
Seeing that his words had indeed received a response, a trace of hidden concern appeared in Degan’s eyes.
After all, it involved a silver artifact, and it was the last remnant of their Northern Sea Royal Court. It feared that the unknown entity behind the market might have some ulterior motives.
After a moment’s hesitation, it tentatively said:
"Can I use the [Mirage Dragon Pearl] as collateral to borrow this golden [Tri-Eye Profane Cannon] for a period of time?"
"Once the borrowing period ends, I am willing to pay two red epic artifacts as compensation!"
Song Chi immediately rejected the proposal.
[Only artifacts of the same quality can be used as collateral!]
Of course, although he rejected it quickly, he was actually quite interested. Borrowing it for a short time to gain two red epic artifacts was extremely tempting, especially since the [Tri-Eye Profane Cannon] might sit unused in the market for a while.
However, the problem was that the only things Song Chi could reclaim autonomously were the [Market Guest Permit] and [Market Travel Permit]. If the other party broke the agreement in the future, he would have no way to reclaim the golden star destroyer cannon.
In that case, he would truly end up as the one who passively exchanged a golden artifact for a silver one, a significant loss.
Seeing the quick reply on the projection screen, Degan was not surprised. It immediately changed its approach.
"Since that’s the case, I am willing to use this [Mirage Dragon Pearl] to exchange for all the red, orange, and purple artifacts in the shop, and I also want a [Market Travel Permit] with a 20-year usage period!"
After saying this, it waited expectantly for a response, while Song Chi, located in the free stall area, quickly calculated in his mind.
At present, in the artifact exchange shop, excluding the [Tri-Eye Profane Cannon], there were a total of 3 red artifacts, 12 orange artifacts (10 + Earth Attribute Law Crystal + Fire Attribute Law Crystal), and over 30 purple artifacts.
After careful calculation, the total value was roughly equivalent to 4 to 5 red artifacts. If the 20-year [Market Travel Permit] was included, it was basically equivalent to 11 to 12 red artifacts.
On the surface, it seemed not much different from a silver legendary artifact, but Song Chi knew that he was actually getting a great deal.
Because at the red and silver level, artifacts could no longer be simply calculated at a 10:1 ratio.
Even so, Song Chi made some adjustments.
[Market Travel Permit with a 10-year usage period, all other conditions remain the same!]
Initially, he considered taking out the two law crystals, but then he thought that once the [Market Travel Permit] expired, the other party would need to use red artifacts to extend the time, which was clearly more valuable than the lower-grade orange quality law crystals.
Degan hesitated for a moment but finally nodded in agreement.
Ten years, with over a hundred market transactions, would be sufficient for the royal court to acquire enough various rare resources.
The transaction was completed, and all the purple and higher-quality artifacts in the artifact exchange shop simultaneously floated up, finally piling up in front of Degan.
This sudden change made the dozens of aliens in the shop momentarily stunned. However, when they saw the faint silver glow of the [Mirage Dragon Pearl] that Song Chi deliberately revealed, all the aliens drew in a sharp breath, and their initial surprise turned into a sense of inevitability.
Before long, the news that the Market Master had just traded for a silver legendary artifact spread throughout the market.
Under such rumors, the aura of mystery surrounding the Market Lord grew even thicker in the hearts of all the alien races.
Song Chi was precisely aiming for this effect.
The ability to casually trade silver legendary artifacts meant that the safety of this market was absolutely guaranteed. Everyone should quickly bring out the good things they had in their possession.
Although he didn’t say it outright, what Song Chi wanted to convey was exactly this.
Time passed, and soon the trading session was nearing its end. As promised, Song Chi held an auction for the [Market Guest Permit] and [Market Travel Permit]. In the end, he sold two guest permits, adding two more purple artifacts to the nearly empty oddity exchange shop.
After that, he selected two hundred of the highest-contributing alien creatures from this trading session and distributed two hundred [Market Listing Tokens] to them.
With this, the current market trading session was officially concluded.
As all the alien races left, the entire market fell silent. Song Chi once again summoned the Sky Dome and loaded the newly acquired [Mirage Dragon Transformation Pearl], enhancing it to level 20 at once.
It wasn’t that he was unwilling to continue, but he lacked the Titanium Crystals.
He wasn’t short of the Fourth-Rank Floating Continent Essence, though. Besides the 100 strands synthesized on the [Spirit Machine Synthesis Platform], the Third-Rank alien creatures who entered this time provided nearly 150 more strands. Adding to the previous stock, Song Chi now had nearly 300 strands of Fourth-Rank Floating Continent Essence.
Looking at the attributes of this component, after it was enhanced to level 20, its various effect priorities had reached 2400.
The weakening effect on illusions, illusory realms, and illusory arrays had also increased to 30%.
As for the "Thousand Transformations" feature, it didn’t have many substantial changes.
However, the "Mirage Shadow" and "Mirage Dragon Spirit Pressure" had improved significantly.
{Mirage Shadow: Consuming 90,000 Ether Energy Points, after 40 seconds of charging, the warship enters a Mirage Stealth state, making it impossible to be detected by most exploration methods. The stealth state will automatically fail upon active attack or taking damage. Duration: 60 minutes, Cooldown: 120 hours.}
{Mirage Dragon Spirit Pressure: Consuming 100,000 Ether Energy Points, the Mirage Dragon Pearl emits a spirit pressure one rank higher than its current enhancement level, intimidating enemy units. Duration: 3 minutes, Cooldown: 120 hours.}
After the enhancement was completed, Song Chi was satisfied and retracted the Sky Dome.
Although this [Mirage Dragon Transformation Pearl] component didn’t significantly change the Sky Dome’s combat power, it greatly enhanced the ship’s future safety, making it very practical overall.
However, when his attention returned to the oddity exchange shop, his eyebrow twitched. To trade for this [Mirage Dragon Transformation Pearl], the oddity exchange shop had returned to its starting point, with only two purple artifacts left to maintain its appearance, looking quite meager.
Fortunately, Song Yufeng’s acquisition plan was still ongoing, and he believed it wouldn’t take long for the shop to be filled with high-rank artifacts again.
Thinking this, Song Chi left the market and prepared to return to Sky Rush Valley.
He found Song Yufeng, greeted him, and took out more than ten million strands of Zero-Rank, First-Rank, and Second-Rank Floating Continent Essence, entrusting him to continue acquiring Star Sea artifacts and the few resources needed by the Deep Sea Naga Clan.
However, just as he was about to leave, Song Yufeng stopped him.
"Highness, the Legendary Guild has sent an invitation. In eight days, the head of the Legendary Guild will hold a birthday party at Saint Roland Manor and invites you to attend."
Song Chi wasn’t surprised. He had already received the invitation under another identity.
"Decline it. I won’t join in the festivities."
Behind him, Song Yufeng seemed hesitant but finally nodded lightly.
...
Sky Rush Valley. After returning, he resumed his daily tasks of practicing the Guiding Technique, visualization, and comprehending the laws.
The Guiding Technique could only be practiced in the market, but Song Chi performed visualization and comprehension of the laws in the outside world.
His current comprehension of the laws was not yet fully transformed into Star Sea laws. While in the market secret realm, it wouldn’t deepen his understanding of the incomplete laws, but it also couldn’t transform his comprehension into Star Sea laws.
Time passed quickly, and soon eight days had gone by.
On this day, a Flame Torch Warship quietly ascended into the sky, quickly disappearing from sight.
At the same time, not far from Holy Star City, at Saint Roland Manor.
As a large manor, Saint Roland Manor was already well-known, and today the manor was particularly lively.
