Versatile Mage: Lord of Space

Chapter 378 Star Sea Celestial Vein
When Lin Lan arrived at the store, she found that it wasn't as high-end as she had imagined.

Decorating the magic market with gold and glitter is meaningless. Everyone knows that many of the products sold are actually recycled and recycled. The hidden value inside needs to be discovered by mages with discerning eyes. Good things will sell even at street stalls, but no matter how well-decorated the scrap metal is, no one will buy it.

Lin Lan didn't know many people in Japan, let alone in this Naval Battle City. There were many things for sale, and Lin Lan planned to find a wealthy buyer first.

He casually placed a piece of cloth on the ground, then set up a small stool, and put some of the strange bones and claws he had obtained from the Shark Demon on the cloth, which immediately attracted the attention of many Japanese sorcerers.

"Please communicate in an international language; I don't speak Japanese."

These Japanese people all spoke Japanese, and Lin Lan could only say things like "Baka yarou" and "Ami".

"They're not Japanese. So what's the price for these?"

"Six hundred thousand for the strange bones, and five hundred thousand for the strange claws," Lin Lan said.

"Damn it, you're treating me like a Japanese? Even a general-class soldier only costs around 400,000!"

"The Shark Demon's is a bit smaller, but the quality is different," Lin Lan explained.

The price of exotic bones and claws depends on their size and quality. The larger the exotic bone, the more magical artifacts can be made from it, and the higher the quality, the higher the grade of the magical artifact.

The items Lin Lan displayed on her stall were indeed a bit pricey; they were all there to filter for high-quality customers, all in order to find a good buyer.

The demons Lin Lan hunted this time, not counting their essence and remnants, could probably fetch forty million.

Lin Lan has already raised half of the money for the six portions of the Star Sea Celestial Vein...

Of course, there are problems. The Star Sea Heavenly Vein can only be used once per person, and its effect will be greatly weakened after one use. However, Lin Lan is looking for stability and there is no better way to break through.

……

In the following days, the team members seemed to be very busy, and they were rarely seen.

It's estimated that the forces behind them provided them with the Star River Vein. Before long, the entire team will be composed of high-level mages, and the personnel of the National Government Team will also change.

Lin Lan wasn't exactly relaxed either; finding a buyer wasn't easy, and it would definitely take time.

To this end, Lin Lan even made a special trip to Tokyo to sell all her belongings.

Lin Lan has already cultivated all six elements, except for ice and summoning, to the advanced third level.

Lin Lan also considered strengthening her fourth-level magic, but resources were also a key issue, so after finishing her work, Lin Lan chose to travel around.

Without the burden of cultivation or the so-called competition, one can calm down and feel and experience things, whether people or events.

Japan is still quite unique.

……

As soon as Lin Lan returned to Donghai City, her room was kicked open.

Lin Lan was practicing ice magic, and instinctively thought of using ice locks to bind Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan, who had broken in.

"What are you two doing?" Lin Lan sensed that Mo Fan seemed to have suffered some kind of blow, his face showing displeasure. She guessed it was because his offer of the Star River Vein to Mu Ningxue had been rejected.

Zhao Manyan broke through to the advanced level, but what's with this alternating joy and frown?

"Old Zhao brought me here, saying he had something to tell us," Mo Fan said.

"Zhao Manyan has broken through to the advanced level, congratulations! I'd be happy to treat you to a meal or something," Lin Lan said.

“Yes, it took me three whole Star River Veins to break through… Close the door first, I have something to tell you two.” Zhao Manyan suddenly remembered something.

Lin Lan closed the door, wondering what Zhao Manyan was trying to say in such a mysterious way.

"I lied to my dad and said I only succeeded in breaking through after three attempts, hoping he would give me another copy of the Star River Vein. I originally planned to secretly take one for Mo Fan as an emergency measure, but I was caught red-handed by the inspection team and got a severe scolding!" Zhao Manyan said with a mournful face, looking extremely annoyed.

"Three portions? Your Zhao family conglomerate sent you to the National Team, you're probably going to go bankrupt." Mo Fan's eyes twitched as he said incredulously.

"Your Zhao Group is truly wealthy and powerful; you genuinely want to dedicate yourself to cultivating a top-tier defensive mage like you," Lin Lan teased.

"I risked getting a fourth copy this time, and the board has already submitted a proposal to remove me, saying I'm wasting resources. Damn it!" Zhao Manyan kicked the carpet on the floor indignantly, then leaned closer to Mo Fan, "Hey, can you get to the point? I'm trying to help you! Mu Ningxue is in a terrible situation, aren't you going to offer her some help? I have some savings here, check how much you have, hurry up and buy her a copy of Star River Pulse. Giving her this at a time like this, she'll definitely be so moved she'll want to marry you! Money can be earned again, but a woman's heart is hard to win back once it's gone. With your current status, earning a hundred million isn't particularly difficult."

Mo Fan's expression immediately became interesting, and the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.

This guy really knows how to rub salt in the wound; the wound from being rejected is still bleeding!
Mo Fan silently took out the Star River Vein and waved it in front of Zhao Manyan.

"Holy crap!" Zhao Manyan's eyes widened as he snatched the item and examined it closely. "You're something else! Giving away something so valuable just like that. Awesome!"

He patted Mo Fan's shoulder hard, his face full of admiration, but then a mischievous smile appeared on his face: "But... judging from your expression, you weren't rejected, were you?"

Mo Fan, his face dark, snatched back the Star River Vein: "So what else do you have to do with Lan Zi?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Manyan coughed and said, "The Star Sea Celestial Vein, my family has an auction house that is going to auction a Star Sea Celestial Vein. I want to see if Lin Lan needs it. If she does, I can help her get it. It's unlikely to be at the original price."

"Damn, Zhao Manyan, you're a true friend! I'll be the first to save you in future raids!" Lin Lan exclaimed excitedly.

The Star Sea Celestial Vein is a rare and highly sought-after item, only available at international auctions, and even then, it doesn't appear randomly. Lin Lan's breakthrough to the Super Rank is precisely lacking the Star Sea Celestial Vein.

Lin Lan had already cultivated the advanced level to the top level. With the Star Sea Heavenly Vein, the probability of breaking through to the super level would increase several times!
"It's really ridiculous. We're all members of the National Team, yet some people are still using the Star River Vein to break through, like me... but the reality is that Lin Lan is about to break through to the Super Rank." Zhao Manyan said with a bitter expression.

“Heroes are as numerous as fish in a river, Zhao Manyan, you don’t need to be too upset. I already realized that Lin Lan was not a normal person when we were in the initial stage,” Mo Fan comforted him.

"..." Lin Lan had a million curses in her heart, but she didn't know whether she should curse Mo Fan, who had just been rejected.

"Speaking of which, if Lin Lan, you've already surpassed the previous level, how will you participate in the World University Competition?" Zhao Manyan asked.

The World University Competition stipulates that mages of the highest rank or above cannot participate.

"Breaking through to the Super-Tier level isn't that easy. After preparing the Star Sea Celestial Vein, I also plan to upgrade my High-Tier Level 3 magic to High-Tier Level 4, which will take a long time."

Breaking through to the Super Rank is not easy. Many people spend their entire lives and use up a lot of Star Sea Heavenly Veins without being able to break through. Lin Lan's breakthrough during the National Academy Tournament was only a high probability, not a 100% certainty.
