Chapter 1030 - 630: Glittering Gold, Changes in the Guiding Star Skill
Lu Lin was unaware of the whereabouts of these extraterrestrial visitors and was still searching for the Shape-shifting Thousand-masks Grass with the help of the Guiding Star Skill.
Thus, another month passed, and the batch of wooden boxes that Lu Lin had previously made were already filled.
He now held a total of 200,000 portions of Shape-shifting Thousand-masks Grass, which, if brought to the trade-enabled Main World, would amount to considerable wealth, but more likely could become the cause of his demise.
One day, Lu Lin was resting in a cave. Although the Main World had declined, it was mainly because a large number of strong Human Race members left with their tribes, surely not taking all the resources.
In this cave, Lu Lin discovered a peculiar metal.
It seemed to have a warning effect; from a distance, the metal appeared to be ordinary stone, but as Lu Lin approached within one meter, the metal emitted a strong light.
Until he held it in his hand, the light would disappear.
Lu Lin tried to infuse it with Star Power and Soul Power, but there was no reaction, and he did not know how people from the Main World used this metal.
To his surprise, the broken knife seemed very fond of the metal, getting restless in the Storage Ring, and once Lu Lin released it, the broken knife immediately touched the metal, engaging in some kind of exchange unknown to him, returning contentedly to Lu Lin’s hand.
"Glittering Gold?"
At that moment, a strange voice sounded behind Lu Lin.
He quickly turned around, his face full of seriousness.
At his current ability level, the other had approached within five meters without him noticing, indicating the other’s formidable skills.
Lu Lin paid special attention; the young man wearing a white combat suit did not have the Evil Dragon Hall’s emblem on his chest.
"Who are you?"
Lu Lin asked warily.
"Hey, don’t be nervous, if I wanted to harm you, you would have died a hundred times by now."
The young man said with a smile, completely unconcerned by Lu Lin’s cautious demeanor.
His gaze stayed on the Glittering Gold in Lu Lin’s hand.
Lu Lin remained unfazed, secretly alert, ready to launch an attack at any time.
The young man withdrew his gaze, scanning Lu Lin’s face and body briefly, then smiled amicably, "Hey, you’re too tense. Are you a scavenger from Mo Nan World, finding a piece of Glittering Gold is indeed lucky. Thirty Gold, how about I buy this piece of Glittering Gold from you."
Lu Lin didn’t know what level of currency Thirty Gold was, whether the young man’s offer was high or low, but he was sure the piece of Glittering Gold wasn’t that simple.
"Lin Yaowu, you’re at it with those tricks again."
A pleasing voice came from outside the cave. Before Lu Lin could react, a valiant white-haired girl appeared before him.
She looked at the Glittering Gold in Lu Lin’s hand, eyes filled with undisguised desire, "This piece of Glittering Gold, I’ll offer Thirty Thousand Gold for you to sell it to me."
"Qin Xue, what do you mean?"
Lin Yaowu’s face instantly turned displeased.
He frowned, looking at the stunning girl beside him.
"What do I mean? Nothing much."
"This large piece of Glittering Gold might even achieve a Dual Armor Level evaluation. If my armor consumes it, it might get closer to Promotion. But you, guy, you only know how to skimp money daily, is that interesting?"
The girl Qin Xue said with indignation.
But Lin Yaowu seemed unfazed, he chuckled, "You’re the prestigious Miss of the Qin Family, naturally indifferent to Thirty Thousand or Fifty Thousand Gold. We ordinary disciples begrudge splitting a penny in two; offering Thirty Gold is already my limit now."
Qin Xue didn’t retort, just watched Lin Yaowu cheerfully.
Fed up with her gaze, Lin Yaowu tossed a harsh line, "Fine, it’s yours then, it’s just Glittering Gold; I’ll surely find a better one." With that, he turned to leave.
Lu Lin couldn’t see his movements, but a voice echoed beside his ear.
"Kid, offer whatever price you want for the Glittering Gold. The Qin Family Miss in front of you is quite the rich lady."
With this transmission, Lin Yaowu vanished instantly.
His departure created no spatial fluctuation; no palpable movement of flesh traversing, thus disappearing without a trace.
"Hmph, that’s more like it."
Qin Xue wrinkled her nose, then turned to Lu Lin, "Hey, scavenger, sell this piece of Glittering Gold to me for Thirty Thousand Gold."
Lu Lin nodded.
"Good, excellent, Thirty Thousand Gold counts as decent for you scavengers. You’re quite good, kid."
Qin Xue praised him, her speech implicitly exuding a superior attitude.
"Wait a moment."
Lu Lin suddenly spoke up to stop, "Before selling you this piece of Glittering Gold, I want to ask who you are."
"Oh?"
"Now scavengers have such a process in selling things?"
"Could it be that if I don’t tell you my background, you won’t sell it to me?"
Seeing Lu Lin’s firm attitude, Qin Xue hesitated for a moment, then turned to leave.
Although a piece of Glittering Gold would significantly assist her armor, it was not essential, and she disliked Lu Lin’s attempt to interact with her as an equal.
She was the Qin Family’s Miss, whereas Lu Lin was merely a scavenger making wealth from the Main World’s decline.
