I farmed in military academy and crushed the entire intergalactic world.

Chapter 317 The Transaction (Order changed)
In the tranquil universe, starlight is eternally distant, darkness fills the space, empty and profound.

The dimensional space was vaguely divided into two large parts, and everyone tacitly kept their distance from Lin Xiaohe.

"Xiao Hei, continue."

"it is good."

Lin Xiaohe knew that the Nine Dragons Carrying the Coffin was most likely triggered by her.

However, Lin Xiaohe does not intend to use this destructive and deterrent power that does not distinguish between friend and foe unless absolutely necessary.

She returned to the Arbiter, which was also damaged.

Hardy looked at her, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.

Good news! It seems our great Lord has activated a very powerful cheat code.

The bad news is that this cheat doesn't distinguish between friend and foe, and it affects everyone equally.

"My Lord, the universe is vast. Sometimes you may not encounter a single life, while other times danger may suddenly strike."

"Some dangers can be predicted and prevented in advance, such as supernova explosions, where signs can be observed beforehand. Other dangers come suddenly and unexpectedly."

"That one just now..."

Is it a predictable danger, or a sudden and unexpected one?

Lin Xiaohe said expressionlessly, "Caught off guard."

Oh.

Hardy reassured himself, "It's alright. Judging from the current situation, no civilization in the entire space can defeat the Nine Dragons Carrying the Coffin."

At worst, we'll all perish together.

The dimensional barrier suddenly trembled. This tremor was invisible to the naked eye, but each civilization could detect this anomaly through its own unique means of observation.

Hardy, with a stern expression, reported to Lin Xiaohe: "One minute ago, the magnetic field of the planet within the observation range experienced a brief reversal, lasting only 0.1 seconds."

The messengers from the stars also reported the situation: "There's a problem with the gravitational waves."

Meanwhile, the countdown to the Holy Monument is on: [Collapse progress 80%]!
Everyone knows that the final test is coming soon!
Whether this dimensional space can withstand the collapse of the universe and become a paradise remains to be seen.

In a corner of the star-studded sky, a silver warship emerges from the darkness.

Chu Huaizhi remained on the outskirts of the area under his control and sent a communication request to the Arbiter.

Lin Xiaohe answered the call; she wanted to see what Chu Huaizhi was planning.

"Let's make a deal. I know your Arbiter doesn't have many resources left."

The Arbiter has been sailing in the Dark Domain for so long, and has consumed a lot of energy and resources in order to enter the dimensional space. Even though the dimensional space is rich in resources, it takes time to transform raw resources into high-precision resources.

The biggest problem right now is time; no one knows how long it will take for the collapse to jump from 80% to 100%.

Lin Xiaohe glanced at the Arbiter's warehouse, where all the resource reserves had been reduced to below the warning level: "Okay."

The two parties agreed on the transaction rules: one party would provide the same bargaining chip, with Lin Xiaohe's body as the standard for pricing.

Lin Xiaohe's body is priced at 10. The seller sets the price of their bargaining chip based on this. If the price is 3, the other party needs to use various conditions to fill this 3.

For each condition proposed, the proposer first sets a predetermined value, which the buyer can agree to or disagree with. If the buyer disagrees, the price will be negotiated again. If the buyer is not interested, the condition can be skipped.

In situations where information is extremely opaque, this is the most time-saving method.

Chu Huaizhi: "I want Karin Reynolds."

Lin Xiaohe's eyes sparkled.

Karin Reno possesses a quarter of a divine essence, but that divine essence already resides within her. Both Changqing and the Aura people know this.

Does Chu Huaizhi know this?
Was he after Karin Reno's quarter of godhood, or does Karin Reno have other value?
Regardless, let's try to scam them first.

Lin Xiaohe: "Value 8."

Chu Huaizhi: "Agreed."

He sent Lin Xiaohe a list of supplies, which included rare and processed materials that the Arbiter needed but could not obtain.

Lin Xiaohe handed the list to the Arbiter team. Scientists and the business team used the materials to price the data and then selected the missing information for the Arbiter.

Chu Huaizhi truly lived up to his reputation as a man who plundered the entire Federation; his wealth was immense.

Hardy and Chermu, drooling, checked off the resources they needed, which were worth far more than 8.

They had to reluctantly delete some parts.

Chu Huaizhi glanced at the list and decisively agreed: "Deal. I want the Rock Clan Source Body."

Lin Xiaohe: Not for sale.

Nuwa grew anxious and urged Chu Huaizhi from inside the silver ship: "I need the source body! I can exchange it for information."

Chu Huaizhi spoke again: "You can reconsider. The [Source Body] isn't very useful to you. The Rock Clan takes an extremely long time to develop from conception to maturity. You're only using the [Source Body] to strengthen the Arbiter's sturdiness. In such a short time, the [Source Body]'s influence on materials isn't irreplaceable. We can provide materials with equal or even superior performance."

"In the long run, the [Source Body] does indeed have high value. However, we may not have that long-term vision. Rather than holding onto something that will only generate benefits in the future, it's better to use it to exchange for and enhance our current strength."

Lin Xiaohe: "What do you need the [Source Body] for?"

"This question has a value of 1. Are you sure you want to ask it?"

"No more questions."

Nuwa could no longer contain herself and took over the conversation: "I can provide you with a vast amount of information. This information comes from this star field, from so many powerful life forms and races since the Second Era."

“I know there are Awakened Ones on the Arbiter. But even as a participant in a civilization, an individual’s understanding of civilization and the current universe is but a drop in the ocean.”

“The information I have is different. If the number of Awakened is 600, the amount of information I have is 600 million. I don’t need to say more, you know what this information means. You simply cannot get this from anyone else, not even the Aura people.”

As one of the first Aura people to enter the star field, Nuwa certainly had the confidence to say this.

Lin Xiaohe: "Do you have any information about the sacred monument?"

Nuwa...

“We once tried to enter the monument through unconventional means, and we did succeed. But the monument’s information compression technology is far beyond our capabilities, and we cannot decipher it.”

Lin Xiaohe had a hunch: the black figure she encountered in the Holy Monument was most likely a backup plan by the Aura people.

The black figure wanted to join the other three candidates for the destined one. Was this Nuwa's intention, or was it a scheme devised by the first wave of Aura people who entered the star field?
Thinking about the system within herself, Lin Xiaohe believed it was most likely the second type.

The Aura must have done something to try and seize the identity of the chosen one of the Seventh Age.

If he does not give up his candidate status, once he obtains the Void Ship, the Aura people will be able to completely control his body through the Descent.

When the most useful piece voluntarily relinquishes its candidate status, the Aura people have no choice but to settle for second best, hoping that this piece will become a subordinate civilization and gain a glimmer of hope.

Lin Xiaohe quickly figured out the truth.

Nuwa and the later Aura people were not in cahoots! She and Chu Huaizhi were allies long ago. If Nuwa and the Aura people were in cahoots, they wouldn't have needed to go through all this trouble.

It's possible that the Aura people were divided into many factions from the beginning, or it's possible that Nuwa, after entering the star field, couldn't bear the long years and developed rebellious intentions.

Secondly, once any civilization enters the black hole, it has no way to escape. They can only enter the singularity through the Holy Gate to obtain the most crucial information and clues for survival.

Lin Xiaohe gasped, a chill running down her spine.
