I picked up attributes in Swallowing Star.

“Okay.” Luo Yuan knew exactly what the other party wanted to do.

The black man with red eyes pressed the device on his arm, and a dreamlike light enveloped Luo Yuan and Luo Feng.

"Drip!"

The instrument emitted a sound, and the black man with red eyes looked down at the screen, which displayed the universal language: "No such person found!"

“Since you have never acquired any nationality, many steps can be skipped,” the black man with red eyes said with a smile. “You only need to pay a processing fee of 100 Black Dragon Coins, and everything will be taken care of.”

“On Qiulong Star, Black Dragon Coins are used in many places.” Luo Yuan flipped his hand and threw out a Qianwu Coin. “Help me break this.”

"Qianwu Coin".

The black man with red eyes was secretly pleased. He quickly took out a special banknote as thin as a cicada's wing from his pocket and handed a small stack of banknotes to Luo Yuan. "Sir, this is 900 Black Dragon Coins." At the same time, he put the Qianwu Coin into his pocket and took out 100 Black Dragon Coins from his pocket and put them into the coin inlet of the instrument next to him. The instrument swallowed them directly.

It took about 20 minutes for Luo Yuan and Luo Feng to obtain their own identity documents, thus leaving a record on the Black Dragon Mountain Empire's citizen system.

With citizenship of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, many things become possible. As the saying goes—without legal status, you can't move an inch.

"Alright, next we need to open an account on the Virtual Universe Network." Luo Yuan said with some anticipation.

The two took to the air again. The sky above Qiulong City was quite open, and the density of people flying overhead was not high. This allowed them to maintain a relatively fast flight speed.

……

Qiulong City, Virtual Universe Company.

"Sir, is there anything I can do for you?" A beautiful woman with a pretty face, wearing a red uniform and a fluffy tail bowed slightly and smiled.

"Open an account," Luo Yuan said directly.

"Account opening service, how much is the virtual universe network fee for one-time payment? There are three tiers: 100 years, 1000 years, and 10000 years. The annual network fee is 10 Black Dragon Coins or 0.008 Qianwu Coins," the receptionist said fluently.

"You guys have consciousness-sensing helmets here, right?" Luo Yuan asked.

On Earth, helmets made by humans themselves cannot connect to the virtual universe network. However, intelligent life forms like the Babata have ways to easily connect.

Chapter 62 180 Billion Black Dragon Coins

"A consciousness-sensing helmet costs 10 Black Dragon Coins." A hint of surprise flashed across the receptionist's eyes. Nowadays, who with any status doesn't use an auxiliary quantum computer, or even a more advanced 'intelligent quantum computer'? Who would use a primitive consciousness-sensing helmet?

"What about anonymous accounts?" Luo Yuan pressed.

In the universe, some planetary lords purchase consciousness-sensing helmets for their people to use. These are generally anonymous accounts. However, anonymous accounts... are typically valid for 100 years. Upon expiration, a new account needs to be purchased.

These anonymous accounts cannot be linked to users, meaning anyone can use them, and they can be used for a maximum of 100 years.

"The anonymous account has a fixed validity period of 100 years, and each account is priced at 2000 Black Dragon Coins or 1.6 Qianwu Coins," the receptionist said with a smile.

"very good."

Luo Yuan nodded slightly. "I need 10 anonymous accounts and 10 consciousness-sensing helmets. To open an account... just pay for 100 years."

With citizenship of the Black Dragon Empire, opening an account is very easy.

After paying 17 Qianwu coins, all the formalities were completed.

"Sir, the 10 anonymous accounts have been bound to these 10 consciousness-sensing helmets. Here is your change. Thank you for your patronage." The receptionist smiled and Luo Yuan casually handed three sensor helmets to Luo Feng, storing the remaining seven directly into his spatial ring.

On the planet Qiulong, you can reveal that you have a spatial ring, but you must make sure that your spatial ring is 10 meters long, wide, and high. You must not put anything that exceeds this size into it.

after all……

Spatial storage items are categorized by quality. It's quite normal for someone who can travel on the Black Dragon spaceship and has Silver Guardians as bodyguards to possess a small storage space. Of course, a spatial ring like Luo Yuan's, which is over 600 meters long, over 500 meters wide, and over 100 meters high, is an absolute luxury. If it were discovered, it could very well cost him his life.

“Alright, let’s go get some money. We can’t buy anything without money. I’m also planning to buy some planetary and stellar-level slaves,” Luo Yuan said.

“But we’re really poor right now, where are we going to get money?” Luo Feng, standing to the side, looked worried. He had just asked about some of the prices in Babata and was shocked by what he found.

"It's alright, I'll just sell the curved cutterhead I have and I'll have the money. I can get a better one later when I have the chance," Luo Yuan said with a smile. He had always felt that the curved cutterhead was not very convenient to use.

"This..." Luo Feng was somewhat surprised. He felt that Luo Yuan was really willing to spend a lot of money.

“Luo Yuan, let’s go to the Treasure Shop. They have all sorts of strange and unusual treasures there, selling all sorts of random things. The only thing they have in common is that they’re all treasures! So they’re all very expensive. Let’s go take a look first. It’s not far from the slave market anyway,” Babata said.

"Okay, Babata, navigation!" Luo Yuan said.

The two arrived at Qibao store smoothly with the help of navigation.

This treasure shop occupies a vast area, comparable to a large plaza on Earth. Inside, divided into sections, there are combat suits, tamed beasts, telekinetic weapons, strange fruits, robots, and many other miscellaneous items. Each item has a simulated projection image, and all are incredibly expensive.

The two looked at the simulated images of the various items projected onto the screen, then at the prices...

Expensive! Too expensive!

"They even have seeds of the Cloud Vine? Purple Crystal Fruit, that's insane!" The two looked calm, but their hearts were in turmoil.

Even if you sold the Earth, there would still be many items in this shop that you couldn't afford.

"Gentlemen, is there anything I can do for you?" a waiter asked with a smile.

"I want to sell a telekinetic weapon." Luo Yuan looked at him, which surprised the waiter. Luo Yuan continued, "It's a third-tier one!"

"Please, please wait a moment." The waiter's voice trembled slightly.

Telekinetic weapons are already luxury items, and the price increases exorbitantly with each upgrade.

The lowest price for a Tier 3 psychic weapon is in the billions, while the highest-grade Tier 3 weapons can reach hundreds of billions!

"Sir, please come inside to talk." Soon, a waiter came out and respectfully led Luo Yuan and his companion to a meeting room inside.

In the reception room.

The elderly man, who was sitting with red and blue markings on his face and was about 2.6 meters tall, stood up with a smile and bowed slightly: "Respected guest, I heard that you want to sell a third-tier psychic weapon?" This was a sixth-tier stellar-level powerhouse, an absolutely invincible existence on an ordinary planet.

"Yes." Luo Yuan nodded slightly.

"I wonder what kind of telekinetic weapon it is?" the old man pressed.

Luo Yuan flipped his hand, and a curved blade disc appeared in his hand!

The old man's eyes lit up.

"This is an arc blade disc. In a typical psychic weapon specialty store within the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, the price for an arc blade disc should be 250 billion Black Dragon coins," Luo Yuan lied.

Upon hearing this, the old man twitched the corners of his mouth and gave an awkward smile.

"drop!"

A green light enveloped the curved blade disc.

"Yes, it's a standard curved blade disc, made of good materials, and in perfect condition." The old man smiled at Luo Yuan. "I can offer you 160 billion Black Dragon Coins for its purchase."

"180 billion, not a little less." Luo Yuan shook his head. This 180 billion was what Babata told him.

“180 billion Black Dragon Coins? This…” The old man looked at Luo Yuan. This young man seemed to know a lot about the profits in their industry. The highest cost of a single curved blade was about that price.

"Deal!" the old man said, looking at Luo Yuan.

The two finally smiled slightly: "Let's draft the contract!"

The two parties drafted a contract.

Because Luo Yuan didn't have a bank card, at his special request, a new bank card was opened for both him and Luo Feng at the Universe Galaxy Bank, and then the transaction was completed.

"Luo Yuan, this bank card is truly unique. It's actually fused with a spiritual imprint, meaning only the original owner can use it. Anyone else who gets it can't use it either." Luo Feng exclaimed in admiration. This was definitely a very secure method, safer than any password, after all... everyone's spiritual imprint is different.

"The Cosmic Galaxy Bank is a super bank spread throughout the universe, so these anti-counterfeiting measures are not surprising. I've transferred 20 billion Black Dragon Coins to you; use them as you see fit," Luo Yuan said generously.

"This, this is too much, Luo Yuan, thank you so much. I'll repay you double when I have the money," Luo Feng said gratefully. Luo Yuan simply waved his hand.

"By the way, Babata, how's it going with the disguise you asked me to do with that fragment of the Crimson Copper Mother?" Luo Yuan suddenly asked.

"Yes, it's all done. I used some alloy materials left behind by the previous owner to modify it for you," Babata said while eating fruit in the virtual space.

"Thanks, I'll give you 100 million Black Dragon Coins directly. You can play virtual games on this virtual universe network with peace of mind from now on," Luo Yuan said with a smile.

Babata in the virtual space curled his lip. Even without Luo Yuan's permission, he could still secretly use Luo Yuan's secret stash of money to spend as he pleased.

“Mr. Luo Yuan,” the old man from Qibao Store said with a smile, “this is our Qibao Store membership card, which entitles you to a 9.8% discount. We at Qibao Store don’t issue membership cards easily.”

"I understand," Luo Yuan smiled.

P.S.: Dear readers, please give me a reward, vote for me, and add this to your favorites. Thank you so much!

Chapter 63 Slave Market

"Do you have Azure Wave Marrow here?" Luo Yuan asked. He was too lazy to look at other treasures; he had already calculated everything before coming here.

"Have."

This sixth-tier stellar-level elder personally served Luo Yuan, smiling as he led him to a spot in the treasure shop where a virtual projection was floating—a projection of Azure Wave Marrow. Azure Wave Marrow was a strange, green, mercury-like liquid that faintly shimmered with an odd light, and its price was displayed nearby.

"Azure Marrow, 9000 yuan per gram?" Luo Yuan nodded slightly. "I need 30 kilograms!"

"30 kilograms?" The old man nodded and smiled.

This made some of the customers who had entered the Qibao store at that moment look at Luo Yuan.

Is this expensive stuff called Bibo Sui?

Buying 30 kilograms at once?

"After the discount, it's 2.646 million Black Dragon Coins," the old man said with a smile. "I wonder if Mr. Luo Yuan needs anything else?"

"We won't need the others for now." Luo Yuan didn't even glance at the other treasures.

The old man was slightly disappointed, but he quickly completed the transaction and immediately retrieved 30 kilograms of 'Azure Wave Marrow' from the secret warehouse at the back. Only shops on core trading planets like Qiulong Star, with hundreds of star systems, could produce such a large quantity of stock at once. Lesser-known planets simply couldn't!

"This is Azure Wave Marrow, please keep it safe, sir." The old man handed over a large, beautiful, half-transparent glass bottle, inside which rippled a strange, green liquid that resembled mercury and shimmered with odd light.

Just this one bottle of liquid.

Countless people have likely lost their lives trying to collect this liquid! If converted to 'High-Level War God Warriors,' it could buy over 1000 million High-Level War Gods!

"Hmm." Luo Yuan took the large transparent bottle, and with a whoosh, it disappeared into thin air.

This caused the other guests watching the transaction to exclaim in amazement and exchange ideas.
