Swallowing the Stars: Eternal Glory

Chapter 60 Slave Market
Led by a female greeter, Lu Jin and his companion arrived at a VIP reception room.

"Please wait a moment, guests. The manager will be right there."

After serving all the tea, the female hostess said this and then left the VIP room.

Before long, an elderly man with a hooked nose, about 1.5 meters tall, and black horns on his forehead, dark skin, and a height of about 1.5 meters walked in.

"Gentlemen, are you looking to sell Tier 3 Force weapons?"

The voice of the AI ​​assistant echoed in their minds as the hook-nosed old man asked Lu Jin and his companion with a smile.

Through the detection of the auxiliary optical computer, the old man with the hooked nose already knew the three guests in the VIP room.

They consisted of two planetary-level martial artists and mentalists, as well as a simulated intelligent mechanical puppet of unknown level.

"Ah."

Lu Jin nodded slightly.

"I wonder what kind of Force weapon it is?"

"The old man with the hooked nose asked."

Lu Jin didn't waste any words; the third-tier top-grade Force weapon, the Radiant Sword, was now in his hands.

Suddenly, the old man with the hooked nose's eyes lit up.

As the manager of Jubaoge, he had seen countless Force weapons, and naturally recognized the Radiant Sword, a top-tier third-order weapon.

"Distinguished guest, may I examine this Radiant Sword?"

"The old man with the hooked nose asked."

Lu Jin nodded: "Of course."

"drop--"

A beam of emerald light shot out from the hook-nosed old man's wrist guard, enveloping the Radiant Sword.

Soon, the green light dissipated, and the hook-nosed old man nodded, his smile widening: "A standard version of the Radiant Sword, in perfect condition. Jubao Pavilion can offer you 2800 billion Black Dragon Coins for this."

Lu Jin shook his head: "That's too low. Not to mention other places, your Jubao Pavilion's price is 3300 billion Black Dragon Coins."

That's a profit of 500 billion Black Dragon Coins in one go! Aren't Black Dragon Coins just too easy to earn?

The old man with the hooked nose said, "Honorable guest, when Jubao Pavilion opens for business, it must leave a certain profit margin, otherwise how can it pay taxes to the empire?"

Thus, Jubao Pavilion added another 100 billion to its bid, bringing the total to 2900 billion Black Dragon Coins.

Lu Jin said in a deep voice, "3000 billion."

"make a deal!"

The old man with the hooked nose nodded.

At this moment, Luo Feng, who was standing nearby, said, "I also have a telekinetic weapon to sell."

As he spoke, Luo Feng took out the 'Arc Blade Disc', a third-tier low-grade psychic weapon.

With the Sky Shuttle in hand, there's no need to use the Arc Blade Disc, which is also a low-grade third-tier weapon.

Half an hour later, at the entrance of the Cosmic Galaxy Bank's branch on Qiulong Star.

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Luo, these are our Jubao Pavilion membership cards, which offer a 9.8% discount. We hope you gentlemen will continue to support Jubao Pavilion's business in the future."

The old man with the hooked nose at Jubao Pavilion smiled and handed over two membership cards.

"sure."

Lu Jin and Luo Feng responded with smiles.

Just now, the two sold the Radiant Sword and the Curved Blade Disc to the Treasure Pavilion.

The newly opened Cosmic Galaxy Bank accounts of the two individuals received 3000 billion Black Dragon Coins and 180 billion Black Dragon Coins respectively.

Afterwards, the two, along with the Flowing Light Guard, went to the slave market on Qiulong Star.

Watching the two figures disappear into the air, the hook-nosed old man from Jubaoge wore a cryptic expression. Lu Jin and his companion didn't even have bank cards, clearly indicating they were new to the universe.

This situation could be caused by either a junior from a powerful force coming to the universe for training, or by someone from a native planet.

However, if someone comes from a powerful faction, they probably wouldn't sell their precious Force and Psychic weapons for money.

If nothing unexpected happens, the two of them belong to the latter category, and they are the kind who obtained the treasures left behind by powerful figures.

'Forget it, the Black Dragon Coins on my bank card aren't as easy to steal as the treasures in my spatial ring, especially inside the Dragon Star.'

After a long pause, the hook-nosed old man shook his head, suppressing his desire to rob the 'lucky native'.

The slave market on Qiulong Star is the largest among the hundreds of star systems in the surrounding area, covering an area of ​​over 300 kilometers.

If it were on Earth, it would definitely be a gigantic city.

However, when placed on Qiulong Star, it would only be a small part of Qiulong City.

The slave market was packed with people. Outside each slave shop, numerous slaves stood for exhibition, their cries of "Sell them!" rising and falling.

Listening to the shouts of the staff at the various slave markets, Lu Jin, who already knew the situation, was unfazed, but Luo Feng was shocked.

A ninth-level apprentice, equivalent to a 'high-level war god' on Earth, can be bought for a dozen or twenty black dragon coins in the slave market.

A slave of this caliber could buy a billion of them after selling the curved blade disc!
Meanwhile, the 'powerful legislators' who are high and mighty on Earth are only worth a few thousand Black Dragon Coins in the slave market.

Even a peak ninth-tier planetary mentalist would only cost 100,000 Black Dragon Coins.

Before long, based on publicly available information found online, the two arrived at a slave market called 'Wolsk'.

Volsk Slave Market is one of the most powerful slave markets in the Dragon Star slave market.

"Gentlemen, what kind of slaves do you need?"
We have all kinds of slaves available—strong, beautiful, and highly capable—at fair prices, and we guarantee your satisfaction!

A man with pointed ears and dark green skin, the manager of the slave market, greeted them with a broad smile.

Through the detection of the auxiliary optical computer, although he could not identify what model of simulated mechanical puppet the Flowing Light Guardian was.

But since Lu Jin and his companion can afford to use lifelike mechanical puppets, it means that at least one of them has the potential to become a major client.

"I want stellar-level slaves."

Lu Jin said.

Upon hearing this, the Green Man in charge perked up, and his smile deepened. He said, "My name is Gordon. This way, please, distinguished guests. The VIP room contains virtual projections of all the stellar-level slaves in the mall. Please choose one."

Stellar-level slaves don't come cheap; they're definitely big customers!

A luxurious VIP room.

Virtual projections appeared in front of Lu Jin and the other person, and the slave projections changed constantly as they moved their fingers.

After considering his options, Lu Jin said to the Green Skin leader, Gosen, "I need 15 Stellar Ninth-Order Black Mongol slaves, including 10 warriors and 5 mentalists."

"Your level must be at the peak of the ninth rank of the Stellar Realm. Don't try to fool me with someone who's just entered the ninth rank of the Stellar Realm."

According to the information recorded in the Pangdun Information Database, the Black Mongolian slaves were considered high-quality slaves.

Not only are they physically strong, but they also have a high proportion of spiritual practitioners.

Furthermore, every Black Mongol Spirit Master is a martial artist of the same rank.

For example, the Black Mongol Spiritual Masters at the peak of the ninth rank of the Stellar Realm are also at the peak of the ninth rank of the Stellar Realm.

Furthermore, and most importantly, the Black Mongols do not have an abstract appearance.

Aside from their dark red eyes and fangs visible when they open their mouths, the Black Mongols are no different in size and appearance from Earthlings.

The reason Lu Jin wanted a peak ninth-level Stellar Soldier was not simply because the strength of a peak ninth-level Stellar Soldier was much stronger than that of a beginner ninth-level Stellar Soldier.

It is also related to the fact that the peak of the ninth level of the stellar realm is only one step away from breaking through to the cosmic level.
