Slimer said that the title deity he dealt with the most, the “Golden Poverty Star”, had long been engaged in this type of trade.
The two most important businesses of the Golden Poverty Star were the trading of fire props, and the second was off-air commodities.
As its supernumerary division master, Slemod also had a certain understanding of the related business.
“For off-voyage trading, a dock, harbour or a specific continent is usually created to display the goods to be off-voyaged.”
The Green Slime explained, “My humble self has also participated in two departing voyage sales.”
“The process is roughly that the seller first places the departing shipment at the dock for interested parties to come and view it.”
“Here, the seller will use specific methods to stimulate the off-voyage item in order for it to display key abilities and characteristics to the buyer.”
“Once the valuation between the gods is complete and an agreement is reached, the buyers will make their selection and the money and goods will be paid for.”
“This process is completely unaware of the offshoots.”
Slemod added, “Divine Lord, the off-air purchase and sale differs from trading props. Because the commodities are living bodies, they will be placed in some specific environments for a long period of time in order to ensure that their characteristics and individual consciousness are stable.”
“The black mist environment of the “Misty Harbour” basically matches the characteristics of an off-voyage place, even though it is somewhat special.”
“What really makes my humble self certain is still the Light Ride’s depiction of the World Pot.”
The two green leaves on its head swung from side to side, “The “Misty Harbour” as it is referred to in the Lantern Race is only a part of the Divine Kingdom. The true Divine Kingdom proper may be that World Pot.”
“There may not even be any jug, merely a piece of illusion and boundary constructed by the Firefly God.”
“It’s like a two-tiered bookshelf, with the Lamp Clan with the lamps they built on the top, and the lower tier being the true location of the Firefly God’s divine Kingdom.”
Lu Yao couldn’t help but think of the little girl selling matches.
Compared to the Lamp Clan, the little girl was all considered to have a beautiful life, at least she could still see the happiness of others.
The Lamp Clan was selling their own little matches and could not live without lighting themselves up.
As a member of the Lamp Clan, Lamp Ride is more of a handicap, neither being a very good lamp maker nor extinguishing the hanging lamp in the darkness, resulting in it failing the sale test.
After becoming deceased, it rolled all the way through the Temple of the Clouds.
It eventually stopped here, also because Light Ride saw the Ghost Lighthouse, and the sun filled with light.
After entering the sand city, the light multiplier resumed making hanging lanterns with the aid of the ghost armour.
A bright lamp was concocted by it, and it flowed back to the Yao world through Sand City.
A reminder appeared on the screen.
[Hanging lanterns are becoming popular in Salt City.]
[Hanging lanterns are becoming popular in Yao City.]
The Yao civilisation had also gained new technology and knowledge.
This successful experience gave Lu Yao confidence.
The Ghost Talent Introduction Programme proved to be of great strategic value.
This long-term approach would continue to provide the Yao Race with foreign talents – even ordinary ghosts of other races had a high reference value just from the intelligence they carried.
The beauty of it was that attracting alien ghosts was indeed a small probability.
Lu Yao stared at the Sand City Lighthouse and froze without waiting for the next lingering apparition.
They were just bound by the rules, leading to a symbolic visit here to show their faces and then continue on their way.
Just as Lu Yao was focusing on the Lamp Ride Light Making Industry, the simulator popped up a caption.
[A rare treasure has been birthed in the treasure chest of the Elf Lake.]
[The elves of the south offer it as a sacrifice to you.]
Lu Yao clicked on the word.
The offering was a fluffy white scarf.
……
[Echidna Hare Scarf] : +1/hour to Faith.
The wearer can withstand the cold.
[Reward 2/3].
Collecting the Echidna Hare Hero Trio will enable you to command the Echidna Hare Legion.
……
The Echidna Rabbit Set was one more.
Lu Yao beautifully pocketed it and looked towards the Elf Lake in the southern New World.
Now that the Elf Lake had been upgraded to LV2, it was no wonder that it was able to produce Fire Props, he remembered that the treasure chests bred here could only open some scattered gems in the past.
The investment accumulated in the early days was bringing returns little by little.
Lu Yao leaned back in his chair and rubbed his wrist.
A burst of thunder sounded outside the window, and between the flashes of electricity, raindrops fell, and the rain soon became dense and brave, crackling the glass windows.
Winter hadn’t passed yet, and the cold rain outside made the windows white and foggy, making it completely impossible to see the world outside.
At that moment, there was a clatter from the doorway.
The Blood Knight guarding the bedroom doorway gripped his greatsword with both hands and lowered his centre of gravity.
The Tyrant in the other wall corner had his hand on the hilt of his sword, ready to strike.
Isabelle blocked between the doorway and Lu Yao, her holy sword emerging in her hand.
The one making the noise was the three-headed hellhound Harrow.
It tilted its head, ears erect, and gazed outside through the door as if it was trying to identify something.
“Familiar odour …… is fast.”
“Not a red dragon ……”
“The silkworm bush is coming.”
Only after its words fell, an image villain with big ears and long arms was revealed on the door.
The Silkworm Bush was the same as the first time Lu Yao had seen it, only this time its life value was quite sound.
The one in front of him was already unknown to be in its first few generations.
Seeing Silkworm Bush, Harrow said in a low voice, “What I promised you has been completed. The memories are here with Mr Enlightened, so pick them up yourself, then, farewell.”
It turned around and bowed its head slightly to Lu Yao, “I am grateful for your care in the past two days, with that in mind, now I should go.”
“I know that you want to live a peaceful life, I won’t reveal your identity to anyone, I swear by the great God of the Underworld.”
The eating Harrow was no different than a normal dog, with its fierce and hideous eating and food guarding habits. But once it got down to business, it was as if it would switch to a different character, becoming restrained and preachy.
Lu Yao said, “Let’s wait until the rain stops.”
“No, I still have to find the Red Dragon’s corpse, and the Gate of the Underworld has times when it needs me.”
After saying that, it tidied up the cardboard box, jumped up and opened the door with its claws and walked out.
Lu Yao opened the window and saw Harrow making its way along the street in the rain.
Although it was drenched by the pouring rain, it didn’t seem to care. The three-headed dog took small, calm and steady steps and quickly disappeared into the rain.
Turning back, Lu Yao looked towards Silkworm Bush who had walked all the way along the wall.
“Do you still remember me?”
He raised his hand, and there were still marks left by the silkworm bushes on his wrist.
“I know a part of the memory is here.”
Silkworm Bush asked carefully, “Mr Enlightened One, can I get it back?”
“Of course.”
With the fusion of this part of the memory, Silkworm Bush’s ears twitched, “So it’s like this …… Sixty-fifth I did all this ……”
“Not only these, there are also dragons.”
Lu Yao pointed at the screen, “But you existed that part of your memories in my Divine Kingdom. It’s still the same as in the past, to go in, you have to agree to become an apostle first …… It’s a matter of my safety.”
“Then I’ll trouble you.”
Silkworm Bush’s character hadn’t changed at all, and he was unwavering when he made a decision.
……
In the Dragon’s Nest, Silkworm Bush was transformed into the Ninth Apostle by Lu Yao, and it further filled in the tattered memories from its time here.
The complete Silkworm Bush turned into a small man with big ears, only being depicted with a border and without any colours, it looked a little sketchy.
“Dragons, dragons ……”
“Where’s Pasha? Where’s Pasha?”
It looked around and saw that Pasha was sleeping on his back in the dragon’s nest, a lightning bolt lit up above his head.
Lu Yao noticed that there was an odd [Weakness] mark after Pasha’s name on top of his head.
Silkworm Bush ran over to the fledgling dragon at fire speed, a question mark popping up on his head, “How did you sleep! A little bit out of it?”
“At this age you’re at this stage you’re sleeping?”
“Pasha, you’ve got to get up! You have to keep practising, you haven’t even finished your second awakening!”
It persuaded bitterly.
Pasha was awakened by it, and a mess surfaced on his faucet: “Silkworm Bush Teacher, aren’t you dead?”
“That doesn’t matter! How could you not have awakened a second time yet?”
A leisurely musical symbol emerged from the head of the fledgling dragon as it crossed its legs and lay down in the dragon’s nest, “…… Because I’m the Dragon of the Eclipsing Sun, I’m the son of the Eclipsing Sun, and as long as I sleep, I can get the power of the Eclipsing Sun to become stronger, and become a mythical existence.”
“What an age, the traditional methods of dragons are outdated …… I now have a comfortable life raising bugs and birds every day to become stronger.”
A string of black exclamation marks appeared on the Silkworm Bush’s head, followed by anger all over its brain.
It immediately said to Lu Yao, “Lord God, Pasha’s thoughts are out of order, and he must be woken up. I request for Mr Blood Knight to step in and give Pasha a good wake up call!”
Lu Yao felt that it made sense.
