Zerg Lord of the Devouring Stars

Dragon Star, the entrance to the virtual universe.

Jiang Chen walked out, followed by Luo Feng, Hong, Thor, Mohandsen, East, Tripati, and Sokolov.

They have already registered in the virtual universe and linked their personal accounts, and can now freely explore the virtual universe.

"Let's find a quiet place and enter the virtual universe."

Jiang Chen said that the group found a relatively casual restaurant and they all went into a private room.

"Hill, enter the virtual universe," Jiang Chen instructed. "Yes," Hill replied.

At the same time, others also entered the virtual universe.

Virtual universe, Black Dragon Mountain Island.

On an ancient street, Jiang Chen and others suddenly appeared.

They had already entered the virtual universe using consciousness-sensing helmets while online on Earth, which is why they didn't lose their composure.

However, we still maintain a sense of awe towards the virtual universe.

"The virtual universe is so vast and amazing," Hongdu exclaimed.

"Haha, I, Babata, am finally back in the virtual world!" Babata, the size of a fist on Luo Feng's shoulder, shouted excitedly.

For intelligent life, exploring the virtual universe is more appealing than the real world.

"What's this?" Jia Yi looked curiously at the little guy on Luo Feng's shoulder. He also had one on his shoulder, but it didn't seem as lively as Luo Feng's.

"Oh, this is my wisdom; his wisdom level is higher," Luo Feng explained awkwardly when he saw everyone looking at him.

"A virtual universe, it's amazing! How did they do it?" Sokolov's voice was deep and powerful.

"Yes, it feels incredible every time I come in." Merhandsen shook his head.

"The Cosmic Galaxy Bank, the First Bank of the Universe, the Giant Axe Arena, the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, and the Virtual Universe Company—these five are the five behemoths of the universe," Hill explained, looking at them. "They hold an absolute monopoly."

"The virtual universe allows you to enter anywhere in the universe and handle anything here."

You've already gone to one of these two major banks, the Cosmic Galaxy Bank and the First Cosmic Bank. Even world lords and immortals have put their money in there, and they're spread throughout the human universe.

The Giant Axe Arena is the fairest arena; every battle ends with one of the fighters dying. As for its power, you can learn about it for yourselves later.

"The Cosmic Mercenary Alliance is a loosely organized group. Over 99% of martial artists and mentalists join it."

Jiang Chen, with the dedication of a concerned person, explained to them the five colossal entities of the human universe.

"Alright, everyone, let's leave. We still have some things to do. Come back in later." After browsing around this virtual universe for a while and looking up some information, Jiang Chen and the others left again.

Longxing, a restaurant known for its many flavors.

"I ate here before, and it was pretty good," Jiang Chen said with a smile, taking a seat.

The others looked around curiously when a glamorous woman with emerald green hair walked over and asked if they needed anything.

After ordering some dishes, the beautiful and alluring waitress left again.

"Hey, third brother, didn't you say there are planetary-level beings everywhere here? How come there are non-planetary-level women working as waitresses?" Thor scratched his bald head and asked in confusion.

Ordinary people, those apprentices who haven't reached the planetary level, are very, very cheap. If they're slaves, they don't need wages at all. "Jiang Chen shook his head and said, "The planetary level is just the threshold to entering the universe."

These nine people are currently the nine most powerful people on Earth. They only realized the situation in the universe after arriving on Dragon Star.

The nine most powerful individuals have only just obtained the qualification to enter the universe.

Didn't you see that the people walking outside are all planetary and celestial level?

"Where there is light, there is darkness. On Earth, humanity has all sorts of dark things, not to mention the vast universe," Hong said calmly in a soft voice.

"Yes, that's why we have to keep working hard and not stop," Jiang Chen remarked.

Soon, one delicious dish after another was served. Except for Jiang Chen, it was the first time anyone else was eating food from another planet.

They all ate heartily.

However, while we were eating, an accident happened.

"Want to grab a drink?"

"Sir, sir, we do not provide that kind of service here."

"Don't be afraid, you're so pitiful. If you come with me, it will be good for you."

"No, no, don't!"

Zhao Bibai and Jiang Chen were drawn over. They saw two waitresses serving dishes when a three-meter-tall man waved his hand, trying to embrace one of them. In the ensuing commotion, the dishes were knocked over and hit the three-meter-tall man's clothes.

"Damn it!" The tall, burly man abruptly stood up, trembling as he pointed at his clothes. "This is a brand new, top-tier Tier 2 Force Armor I just bought, and you dared to dirty it!"

The two beautiful and alluring women with emerald green hair were immediately terrified, their faces turning deathly pale.

The onlookers who were eating around were all shocked. A second-tier top-grade Force Armor should cost 50 billion Black Dragon City. Just thinking about the price left them speechless.

Jiang Chen was also stunned, not because the second-tier top-grade battle suit was expensive, but because he had a smooth journey when he arrived.

How come when we bring our fellow countrymen here for a trip or a meal, we always encounter this kind of thing?

"Luo Feng?" Jiang Chen looked at Luo Feng, who was struggling with his decision. "Could it be that he's born with a constitution that attracts trouble?"

"I!" the burly man roared, drawing a mid-grade second-tier battle sword, his face flushed red. "I'll chop you all in half!"

As he spoke, he was about to bring his knife down and kill the two waiters.

!

A golden light shattered his battle sword, causing it to deflect and strike the ground. The flying stones hit the arm of one of the alluring women, drawing blood.

However, the two were so frightened that they dared not run around anymore, and simply stood there enduring the pain.

"Who, which bastard dares to interfere with my business?" the tall, burly man roared.

"Me." Luo Feng stood up calmly, with two telekinetic weapons swirling around him.

"Two telekinetic weapons!" The tall, burly man immediately calmed down, but his expression towards Luo Feng remained hostile.

"Sir, sir, please stop!" A figure suddenly appeared beside them; it was the restaurant manager.

The Ever-Star restaurant manager watched as both sides wore bitter expressions. One was wielding a second-tier battle sword and a second-tier top-grade battle suit, while the other possessed two psychic weapons. How could an Ever-Star level expert like himself have gotten himself into trouble?

"Hmph, who do you think you are?" The tall, burly man showed no respect to the star-level manager. "My second-tier top-grade battle armor, worth 52 billion Black Dragon Coins, and my second-tier battle sword, worth 30 billion Black Dragon Coins, are now all dirty."

"It's those two."

The restaurant manager, his face grim, wondered how he, a mere manager of a star-rated restaurant, had gotten himself into such trouble. He immediately said, "Sir, she is now yours. Everything you do is up to you. All your expenses here today are free."

"Hey, you're the one who pulled them and got your battle suit dirty, and you're blaming others? That's so low!" Luo Feng glared at him, his telekinetic weapon still flying in the air.

The restaurant manager dared not speak. He couldn't afford to offend either side, so he decided to wait patiently for them to reach a conclusion.

"Number 1, go and take care of it," Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"Yes." The Black Mongol Clan's ninth-level martial arts servant immediately replied respectfully and stepped forward.

"Ninth level of the Hengxing realm!" The burly man's eyes widened, and when he saw the two psychic weapons flying above Luo Feng's head, he knew that this was a group of people he couldn't afford to offend.

"Hmph!" The tall, burly man slunk away without saying a word, leaving without looking back.

"Hey, it's you." Jiang Chen looked at the restaurant manager and said with a smile, "I'll take these two people."

“Yes, sir,” the restaurant manager smiled. “It’s her honor.”

Jiang Chen nodded slightly.

Two waitresses approached, their faces flushed, and stood respectfully behind Jiang Chen. "Thank you, sir."

Because they knew that if they made a scene, the restaurant manager would definitely not let them off easily, and they might even be sold into slavery.

Thor's eyes widened in surprise.

The others also looked incredulous. Even in the darkest times on Earth, nothing like this would happen. Just because of a small argument, two warriors at the level of generals were killed!

"Yes, that's the norm in the universe. Life is difficult even below the planetary level." Jiang Chen shook his head.

"Here you go, take this." Jiang Chen glanced at the waitress whose arm was almost severed, tossed her a vial of the Water of Life. "Thank you, sir," the waitress said gratefully, drank the Water of Life, and her severed arm was set.

"Come on, everyone's finished eating, right? I'll show you around now," Jiang Chen said. "There are a few important places on Dragon Star."

Qibao Store.

"This is the Treasure Shop. It sells all sorts of strange and unusual items, all sorts of oddities, but most of them are treasures! So they're all very expensive," Jiang Chen explained, leading them to the Treasure Shop.

Combat suits, animal taming, telekinetic weapons, strange fruits, robots, and so on.

When Luo Feng, Hong, Lei Shen, and the other eight people first came to Qibao Store, they were dazzled and overwhelmed by the sights.

On the projection screen, there were prices for each item, and each price left them speechless.

"Mr. Jiang." The old man reappeared, looking at Jiang Chen, this important client. "Welcome back, Mr. Jiang. What can I do for you?"

"No, I came here this time to show my compatriots the world," Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"Yes, please enjoy. Feel free to call me if you need anything." The old man said with a hint of disappointment in his eyes, but still smiled.

"Babata, according to the information Jiang Chen gave me, the Golden Horned Beast needs a lot of metal, but this metal is too expensive."

"Oh, okay—but we don't have enough money. How about we sell some things?"

"A third-tier psychic weapon! Sell it here? Sure."

After discussing it for a while, Luo Feng and Babata decided to sell the curved blade.

Under the old man's shocked gaze, Luo Feng sold the Arc Blade and obtained a large sum of money, 180 billion Black Dragon Coins!

With this money, they purchased some items that aided in evolution.

Although the others only received 1 million Black Dragon Coins from Jiang Chen, they still bought some Wood Crystals to help them progress faster in the slave market.

The place was still packed with people. After all, this was the largest slave market in the hundreds of star systems around. Luo Feng, Hong, Lei Shen, and the other eight people only realized the fragility of Earth after arriving here.

The Iron Luo people, ninth-level apprentice martial artists, are equivalent to high-level war gods on Earth, and each one only costs 20 Black Dragon Coins.

An incomparably beautiful woman, stunningly gorgeous, costs only 5000 Black Dragon Coins.

Planetary-level cultivators are quite expensive; an eighth-tier Planetary-level cultivator costs 2 Black Dragon Coins, while a ninth-tier Planetary-level Spiritualist costs 10 Black Dragon Coins.

恆星级一阶武者真，才100万黑龙币恆星级四阶武者2000万恆星级七阶武者5亿恆星级八阶武者20亿，恆星级九阶武者50亿。

A mentalist of the same level costs three times as a martial artist. With the 1 million Black Dragon Coins that Jiang Chen gave them as start-up capital, everyone bought some Planetary Ninth-Order Mentalists and Constant-Order Slaves to serve as servants and bodyguards. This time, Jiang Chen didn't buy anything. He already had enough slaves. He had too many low-level slaves, and he couldn't afford to buy slaves that were too high-level.

After purchasing some slaves, Jiang Chen led them to the Qianwu Dojo to register, paying the registration fee and 20 years' worth of expenses.

Jiang Chen, Luo Feng, Hong, Lei Shen, Jia Yi, Mohanderson, Ister, Tripati, and Sokolov all became the most ordinary students of the Qianwu Dojo.

With everything settled on Dragon Star, the Black Dragon Mountain spaceship began its return journey. There were only 15 people on the way there (including Earth-level planetaries and bodyguards), and a total of 120 people on the way back.

The group not only bought slaves, but also some treasures to aid in evolution, returning home laden with spoils.
