Global Era of Star trekking

However, when Song Chi took it over, his pair of triangular eyes was still watching intently, signaling that he’d probably take it back the moment anything amiss occurred.

Regarding this, Song Chi didn’t mind. Goblins, after all, are known for being the epitome of penny-pinching creatures, so this behavior wasn’t surprising.

As he held the strange object in his hand, the Power of Laws circulated, and soon he obtained an introduction to its attributes.

[Marvel: Goblin Magic Energy Detector]

[Quality: Orange]

[Convertible: {Silver III Generation Ultra-Wave Magic Energy Detection Radar}]

[Note: The Silver Goblin Empire was a mighty nation founded by high-level goblins, who proclaimed themselves to be the descendants of ancient goblin bloodlines and controlled a not-so-low level of technology.

In the Imperial Calendar year 12545, the empire’s top goblin technologist "Tor" developed the first-generation magic energy detector, and hence was granted the title of Viscount by the empire. After several revisions and updates, the Silver III Generation Magic Energy Detector was born, and this detector was precisely the original model.]

As for its marvel attributes, Song Chi had no interest. What caught his attention was the {Silver III Generation Ultra-Wave Magic Energy Detection Radar} mentioned in the convertible section.

Under the cover of the Power of Laws, streams of Spectral Energy flowed into the detector he was holding, and quickly the attributes it could be converted into were also revealed.

Silver III Generation Ultra-Wave Magic Energy Detection Radar lv0

Quality: Orange

Feature: Magic Energy Detection

Feature 2: Star Chart Collector

Consumption: 30/s (Spectral Energy Points)

Detection Range: 30 light-seconds

Precision: 100

UpRank Requirement: 10 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin, 1000 Spectral Energy Points, 1 Terrastone.

{Magic Energy Detection: All life forms or objects with special energy reactions within the detection range will be specially marked on the display.}

{Star Chart Collector: After entering an unfamiliar star domain, with half an hour of collection, the patrol radar will automatically generate a detailed star chart of 20 times the detection range.}

After reading these detailed attributes, Song Chi felt a great surge of joy in his heart. This [Silver III Generation Ultra-Wave Magic Energy Detection Radar], being an orange-quality patrol radar, was much stronger than the current Heavenly Eye Patrol Radar equipped on the Cangqiong.

Given that the radar is somewhat of a weak point aboard the Cangqiong, Song Chi’s expression remained unchanged, yet in his heart, he was resolute about getting his hands on the orange radar.

As he was thinking, the goblin in front of him already reached out quickly to take back the orange radar.

Song Chi showed no abnormal reaction but instead asked:

"How do we trade for this orange marvel?"

As soon as he spoke, the goblin in front of him seemed to become a different person. The original wariness dissipated quickly, turning instead into an eager smile, and his mouth began spewing a long, insubstantial speech.

"This magic energy detector was left behind by my ancestor, ’the first-generation Viscount Tor,’ and has been handed down to my generation for a full..."

Song Chi instinctively filtered out the long-winded boastful words of the other party and got back to the point:

"What’s the price?"

"500 strands of Fourth-Rank Floating Land Origin!!"

The next second, Song Chi’s "jackalwolf" face suddenly turned dark.

500 strands of Fourth-Rank Floating Land Origin wasn’t just simply an outrageous demand, it was like a shameless toad trying to swallow the sky, utterly preposterous.

Recalling when his grandfather, Song Mingsong, had acquired the [Apocalyptic Annihilation Cannon], it had only cost him 10 strands of Fourth-Rank Floating Land Origin. Though other strands of Third Rank Floating Land Origin were included, could those even compare to the Fourth Rank?

Once it came to the Third and Fourth Ranks of Floating Land Origin, talking of exchange between them was hardly feasible anymore, due to the vast differences between these levels.

It was for this reason that Song Chi’s own Floating Land Origin exchange shop had never held much hope for Third Rank or higher Floating Land Origins; they were merely listed there to boost the shop’s prestige.

And so, overall, the expenses that Grandfather Song Mingsong incurred in acquiring that [Apocalyptic Annihilation Cannon] amounted to, at most, just a few dozen strands of Fourth-Rank Floating Land Origin.

While this radar component might be rarer than a main cannon component, it definitely wasn’t exaggerated to ten times that extent.

Therefore, Song Chi didn’t bother to ask any further. Given the nature of goblins, it would be quite futile to haggle with them.

Insisting on it would only lead to his own frustration, because their way of thinking couldn’t be considered using the same logic applied to normal beings. Trying to reason with them, haggle? Don’t make him laugh.

Song Chi’s thought was simple, if the normal methods didn’t work, then he would see if the upcoming auction for the Ruins Market Guest Token could attract the other party’s attention.

In the end, if that still didn’t work, then he would have to utilize the Enslavement Medal component.

When Song Chi asked himself, if he had a choice, he would be a hundred times reluctant to use the Enslavement Medal.

This had nothing to do with being a saint or not wanting to harm the innocent.

"Non-kin, their hearts differ," he understood this truth clearer than anyone else, and he would never be more compassionate than anyone else when he needed to be ruthless.

The reason he was unwilling to use the Enslavement Medal unless absolutely necessary was only one.

There are no walls in the world that do not let wind pass through.

With his identity as the Ruins Market Master and the quality of the Enslavement Medal, enslaving a First Rank goblin would naturally be a simple matter, but the troublesome part was what came after the enslavement.

Now he was only First Rank, and so was the Ruins Market Secret Realm; the Enslavement Medal had only been enhanced to Third Rank. What if there was a Fourth Rank or even a Fifth Rank Level existence behind this goblin?

He didn’t believe that creatures of such levels couldn’t detect the existence of enslavement marks.

Thus, once exposed, the Zhu Tian Ruins Market would certainly be dragged into it.

He wasn’t afraid that these Fourth Rank, Fifth Rank existences would act against him across the void. The Zhu Tian Ruins Market, lying deep within the space rift, was not something any creature could tamper with, even if they were of Fourth or Fifth Rank existences.

What he feared was the reputation of the Zhu Tian Ruins Market collapsing.

From the introduction of the Silver III Generation Ultra-Wave Magic Energy Detection Radar, it was not hard to see that the Silver Goblin Empire was not any ordinary civilization group and must have quite an influence in the Star Domain it was located.

Once it started spreading the dirty secrets of the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, word would spread from one to ten, ten to a hundred... He believed that it wouldn’t be long before the reputation of the Zhu Tian Ruins Market would be thoroughly ruined. Under such circumstances, it would be very difficult in the future to make big money through the Zhu Tian Ruins Market.

Although this possibility was not high, moreover, even if the Silver Goblin Empire spread the dirty laundry of the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, it would not likely cause much impact on the market in the short term, considering that the diameter of Shattered Starry Sea cannot be measured in light-years is not just talk.

But Song Chi dared not, nor was he willing, to take the risk.

He was only First Rank now, and it was unknown how long it would take to reach Fourth or Fifth Rank, not to mention the subsequent Sixth or Seventh Rank.

Uh... what he wanted to express was, the span of a thousand years, ten thousand years, or even a hundred thousand years, a steady stream of small gains is a thousand times, a million times stronger than a one-time big profit.

Sigh...

Taking a deep breath, Song Chi suppressed the thought of enslavement at the bottom of his heart and turned his attention to the other items on his stall.

Magic Missile Launcher

Goblin High-Explosive Grenades

Deep Space Magic Energy Bombing Drone

Goblin Magic Energy Battle Armor

Detailed Construction Diagram of Goblin War God Mech

... n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Looking at all these mechanical devices and weapons in front of him, Song Chi was extremely interested.

It had to be said, that many of these items would be very useful to him.

Take the Magic Missile Launcher, for example. This thing was portable, and if equipped by Void Assassin Clan Soldier Figurines, with their unnoticeable skills, they could definitely achieve unexpected effects.

Hitting with one shot and then immediately fleeing the scene would surely infuriate the enemies.

Or take the Deep Space Magic Energy Bombing Drone, this item was a perfect match with the Brainwave Remote Control System.

Scanning around, Song Chi’s gaze suddenly fell on a small piece of black stone on the stall.

After examining it, Song Chi was almost certain.

"Isn’t this just ordinary Terrastone..."

Thinking this, he looked up and asked the question.

"Boss, what’s this stone?"

The High-Level Goblin was busy introducing his products to alien races and then replied:

"Magic Stone, do you have it?"
