Chapter 1383 Harvest (Part 3)

"Iron Areca Leader, it's not safe like this!"

"Within the Star Network range, no insect would dare to act recklessly, right?"

"Cargo worth six hundred billion. Better to be cautious."

"Fine. Summer Oak, Iron Areca Leader, I'll use the Star Spider to send you back."

"And the Dragon Cypress Ant King..."

"I'll go join Chairman White Ivy's group. Chairman Four-Number Association, Chairman Summer Oak, how about waiting for you so we can head together to the Sheep Hoof Armor Star System, and visit Xianglan Mountain?"

"Certainly have to visit Xianglan Mountain. But we mustn't delay the precious time of the Great Leader Dragon Cypress."

"How about this. Great Leader Dragon Cypress, you head back first. Summer Oak, myself, and Color Steel will escort Iron Areca Leader back to Gleaner Star System, and then, probably arrive in about sixty years."

"That's fine."

A brief discussion.

The insects then headed together to the southern 9999 zone to meet with White Ivy and others.

After introductions,

Four-Number drove the Star Spider away.

…

Dragon Cypress, White Ivy's party, quickly walked out of the plaza, darted into the grove, and raised a soul power shield to isolate any spying.

"Great King, what was the total harvest this trip?"

"Is there a trillion?"

"Titanium Sand?"

"It looks really strong!"

"Great King, how much Titanium Sand is there? Quickly let me taste."

Cypress, Silver Cypress, and several insects surrounded Dragon Cypress with questions.

White Ivy lifted a claw and tapped Dragon Cypress' side chest carapace forcefully with curiosity:

"Is the strength very high?"

"Super strong!"

Dragon Cypress: "I estimate, with Metal System Defensive Ability, it can withstand most attacks at the Host Realm Level. Especially for physical attacks, the defense is most effective, just perfectly complementing the adaptive evolution."

Dragon Cypress swiftly said: "That Iron Areca Leader is truly capable, a thousand times stronger than anticipated! Red Qu Star is much more prosperous than we had estimated."

"This trip, the World Gemstone harvest, I received 1.1 trillion. I didn't dare take much Titanium Sand, took 6 bags, distributed 3 bags, valued at about 1.5 trillion according to Chairman Four-Number's non-specific estimate."

"On paper calculations, the harvest from this trip is 2.6 trillion."

"Titanium Sand cannot be sold. Selling it renders it almost impossible to purchase again through any channel. It's kept for Chamber of Commerce use."

"Adaptive evolution and Titanium Sand are perfect matches! The so-called biological armament modification is tantamount to transforming our carapace into a kind of 'biological armor' similar to 'Artist Armor'. If blood and flesh can assimilate, overall speaking, its combat effectiveness enhancement is no less than Artist Armor. Especially for those with awakened Metal System talent, adept in Metal Ability, the improvement is a genuine transformation."

After Dragon Cypress finished speaking, all eyes turned to Red Peach and Yellow Peach: the Metal Mantis are those with awakened Metal Talent, adept at Metal Ability.

"!!!"

Red Peach and Yellow Peach raised their tentacles straight.

"I can use it too~!"

White Ivy eagerly asked: "How is it sold? I want to buy!"

Dragon Cypress: "It's counted by the grain, 10,000 Primordial Crystal per grain. For carapace-level enhancement, around 100,000 grains will saturate."

"Without 'Titanium White Range' assistance, at the Star Realm stage, even with King Cypress's adaptive evolution aid, it can only preliminarily complete carapace-level enhancement. When evolving to the Evolved Radiance Realm, it should reach deeper into the flesh level, reaching my current level."

"If going deeper into flesh level, still requiring about 200,000 grains. Each Insect Clan Warrior, totaling about 3 billion in cost."

White Ivy activated Wisdom Brain Ability for calculation.

That's somewhat pricey!

White Ivy tentatively asked: "A 70% discount?"

Dragon Cypress indifferently said: "Titanium Sand is non-discounted! The items are limited, you want to buy, I don't even want to sell."

"..."

White Ivy: "Then I'll reserve 10 portions first, when convenient I'll come to purchase."

White Ivy enthusiastically said: "Great Leader Dragon Cypress, you've struck it rich this time! 1.1 trillion? That can achieve many things."

Dragon Cypress: "Wait for Melde to develop in Phoenix Eye Star Domain. If it handles land transactions, I'll lease another Zero Level Origin Point. If it manages Origin Force Food transactions, we need to consider..."

"Let's discuss it later."

White Ivy lifted a claw to interrupt.

"Dragon Cypress Ant King trust me, Melde's Spider isn't ambitious at all."

Cooperating with Melde, White Ivy was deeply reluctant, changed the topic, and said: "The appointment with Captain Upright Lotus is reached. Shall we go find it?"

Dragon Cypress waved a claw, beckoning: "Let's head over."

…

…

The appointed northern 2003 zone in the wild jungle meeting.

After a round of greetings.

Six old spiders stared intensely at Dragon Cypress.

Due to Jungle Symbiosis, Dragon Cypress's carapace was dark green, evenly covered with a layer of metallic gray-green gravel, mandible tooth, claw tip, spiny touches, tentacle fuzz, etc., sharp parts entirely turned silver-gray.

Both compound eyes and three Heavenly Eyes were also evenly covered with a layer of metallic silver-gray.

The entire insect's demeanor vastly changed.

Instinct perception of a Star Realm Origin Force Warrior, an indistinct metallic pressure.

Upright Lotus asked: "Great Leader Dragon Cypress, what happened to your carapace? Did you acquire other benefits during the trip?"

Dragon Cypress explained: "Red Qu Star has an amazing Divine-Given Seed called 'Yinzhuang'..."

Upright Lotus, Purple Cicada, Chickpea, the three spiders possessed some genuine skills.

Kansui, Giant Taro, Shuigan Sanzhu's reputation isn't even mentioned, in the future, they might either join Chairman Melde's expedition into deep space, or remain as core management of Luoli Chamber of Commerce.

These six spiders are worth befriending.

Dragon Cypress detailed the events of Yinzhuang Divine-Given Seed.

"Great Leader Dragon Cypress, will you sell a share to us?"

Chickpea, specialized in Metal System Ability, audibly excited at the news.

Chickpea really didn't understand the art of interaction between insects. Since it's mentioned, it certainly implies a willingness to share.

Upright Lotus grasped this, and said: "Great Leader Dragon Cypress, this thing complements 'Adaptive Evolution' and 'Technological Star Core' perfectly! We already have Law Fruit and Technological Star Core, considering our close relationship, sell some Titanium Sand to us. Price settled, name your price!"

Dragon Cypress softly tapped its tentacle, saying: "Price is fixed, counted by the grain, 10,000 Primordial Crystal per grain, for each filled Insect Clan Warrior, approximately 300,000 grains are needed."

Upright Lotus decisively said: "Good! Thank you! We need 7 shares, meaning 210 billion Primordial Crystal-worth."

Dragon Cypress nodded: "Initial batch will compensate you 1000 billion, meaning 210 billion worth of Titanium Sand, 790 billion worth of World Gemstone."

Upright Lotus: "Agreed!"

White Ivy notarized, extracting three pieces of metal plates with the transaction details written, both parties signed the contract.

Dragon Cypress, Upright Lotus, White Ivy each kept a portion.

Dragon Cypress took out two large Spider Silk Bags, both parties began to count the goods.

Upright Lotus handed over Leader-Level Starship.

Transaction completed.

Chatted casually for a while.

White Ivy and Fish Vine followed Upright Lotus and the six spiders away.

Dragon Cypress, wealthy and pompous, took Cypress, Silver Cypress, Red Peach, Yellow Peach, hired a Star Spider, and set off directly for the return voyage.
