Chapter 331 The Enforcement Department People Have Arrived

"The most high-end is, of course, the Five Realms Exquisite Heart. But such a thing is legendary; even I have never seen one. As a second choice, there's the Heavenly Water Jade. While it's not as rare as the Five Realms Exquisite Heart, only about twenty are produced every ten thousand years; most people can only dream of owning one," said Iredes.
"And then there's the hibiscus stone, a specialty of Yushan, which is particularly suitable for making female dolls—if you're lucky, you might be able to find one in the trading area today, and you could probably get one for just a few million spirit coins."

Nan Rong, a penniless man with a mere hundred thousand spirit yuan, suddenly calmed down and realized that it was really presumptuous of him to be discussing a business deal worth hundreds of millions of spirit yuan with someone here.

But the materials that Coach Zhou gave her gave her some confidence.

"Is this the Tianshui jade you mentioned?" She took a picture of the palm-sized stone that was neither gold nor jade and sent it to her.

"My God! It seems to be true!" Iredes' emotions instantly surged with excitement, and a loud voice resounded directly in her mind: "It looks to be of pretty good quality—where did you get it from?"

“You don’t need to worry about that,” Nan Rong asked. “Is this kind of Tianshui jade very expensive?”

"Of course! This is a priceless treasure. It can be used to make dolls and is also an essential item for making combat clones. Anyone who gets their hands on it will not want to give it up."

In that case, I owe Coach Zhou a rather large favor.

Nan Rong's eyes darted around, and she abandoned the idea of ​​selling it. There were still potions to sell; money could always be made.

"Then what about the Five Realms Exquisite Stone?" she asked. "What exactly is it? How can one obtain it?"

Melissa deserves the best, and if possible, she doesn't want to settle for second best.

“I suggest you go to the school library and look up the ‘Complete Book of Universe Materials,’ which contains descriptions of the Five Realms Exquisite Stone and all other materials,” Iredes said. “After that, come to the shop to discuss it in person—making dolls is a long process, so the sooner you place the order, the better.”

He could naturally tell the difference between genuinely interested clients and the poor.

In fact, he had already checked Nan Rong's personal information before he took the initiative to contact her.

The name was unfamiliar, and all other information had been erased, indicating that she was definitely not a freshman and had a fairly good relationship with the upper echelons of the department.

Perhaps he was once a very famous person, just with a different name.

Such things are not uncommon in the history of the academy, which also explains why she possesses the Heavenly Water Jade and immediately recognized the top-tier doll.

If it were those poor students who had been in school for less than 10,000 years, they would probably walk out of the store with their heads down as soon as they saw the first price tag.

They weren't originally the target customer group for high-end doll customization shops.

Nan Rong had only just learned that most of the shops on the academy's trading network had physical stores.

The physical store is located within the commercial district, which also includes a food and beverage area and a specialty service area. It even provides a compact space specifically for students to set up temporary stalls.

All the above information is provided by the relaunched Jelly Dumpling.

After Nan Rong's body was successfully sculpted, it remained dormant until just now when it regained consciousness and began to perform its duties as an assistant, generating a holographic three-dimensional map of the entire academy for Nan Rong.

Why has the color of your eyes changed?

It was slightly reddish and had a faint golden glow.

"I don't know either." Jelly Dumpling herself looked bewildered: "Master, as you know, I am just a young domain spirit. To be honest, before following you, I was studying at the Domain Spirit Advanced Academy in the Membrane Space. The Cosmic Inheritance Space is also unfamiliar to me."

"Membrane space?" This was the first time Nan Rong had heard this term.

"It's the boundary membrane outside the core space of the universe. Billions of small worlds grow outside the boundary membrane. It's a self-contained place, a place for all domain spirits to communicate." "No wonder you have a group of domain spirit friends." Nan Rong nodded in agreement.

The next second, following the map's guidance, she teleported into the academy library.

Students wearing the college uniform and badges can enter the first floor of the library to borrow various books.

Nan Rong encountered the catwoman, the octopus man, and Heyal here.

They were all very happy to see her and immediately gathered around her.

“We waited for you for a long time, until we were starving, before we had to go to the cafeteria for a meal,” Catwoman Mengshan said, pulling her along.

"The food in the cafeteria isn't bad, it's just too bland, and there aren't any fresh shrimp or small fish," the octopus man remarked.

"So we thought we'd go to the commercial district for a big meal tonight," Hayal said. "I heard they have specialties from all over the world there, enough to satisfy everyone's tastes."

“Okay.” Nan Rong readily agreed and arranged a meeting time with them.

She hadn't forgotten why she came here. She scanned the entire free area with her mental energy, but still couldn't find the "Complete Book of Cosmic Materials."

The upper level of the library was sealed off, so neither Jelly Dumpling nor Nan Rong could see anything.

She found the librarian, an old man with white hair and beard, wearing a gray silk robe with a dark pattern. His eyes peered out from behind a pair of small round glasses, giving him an unapproachable look.

"Then those aren't books that freshmen are eligible to borrow," he said dismissively, focusing only on his own books.

"What conditions must be met to borrow it?" Nan Rong continued to ask.

The administrator pretended not to hear and continued to look at his book with satisfaction, but the book suddenly disappeared into thin air.

The old man frowned and looked up at Nan Rong, saying, "Trying to cause trouble in the library? Do you know the consequences?"

Before Nan Rong could speak, Catwoman and the others grabbed her with worried expressions: "Let's go and look at some other books first."

Nan Rong swayed and broke free from the three men's grasp, standing beside the old man.

"I just wanted to ask how I can see that book, is that too much to ask?" she said in a low voice.

“Not unreasonable,” the old man murmured, then stood up blankly. “I’ll take you to find it, but we need to see it in person; you can’t take the book away.”

Nan Rong gave the catwoman and the others a reassuring look, and then followed him up the stairs.

“I feel like something’s not quite right,” said the most perceptive octopus-man, Tafa.

But this was just a feeling, without any concrete evidence. So the three of them could only continue browsing the books in the free section, their hearts still pounding with anxiety.

Half an hour later, the old man saw Nan Rong downstairs, and everything was still fine until the four of them stepped out of the library.

"You guys go back first," Nan Rong sighed. "There might be some trouble later."

Before Catwoman could react, a group of people suddenly appeared around the four of them.

They were all wearing blue uniforms, and in addition to the standard college badge on their chests, they also had a rectangular red-and-gold-edged badge with a line of small print on it:
"Enforcement Department of the Cosmic Heritage Academy"
