Chapter 1188: The Dimensional Rift Opened By Liu Jie
Luo Ya dolefully munched on roasted beef while occasionally stealing glances at Lin Yuan.
When she saw him staring at the Sincere Merchant members who were dancing around the bonfire, she took off her purple fur cloak and started dancing pa.s.sionately around a bonfire.
The eyes of many men from the Sincere Merchant Group lit up.
Liu Jie could not help but whisper, “Lin Yuan, I think that woman is interested in you. Did she cause you any trouble during your journey?”
Lin Yuan hurriedly shook his head.
Although he wanted to obtain the two connections that would allow him to establish himself in the Startling Lines Continent, he would not stoop so low as to let himself be taken advantage of.
The longer Lin Yuan looked at the Dimensional Light Moth flying above Liu Jie’s head, the more strange he found it.
Subterranean dimensional rifts did not take long to produce the wave of dimensional lifeforms like other dimensional rifts did.
However, a natural dimensional rift occurred due to ripping from the inside out.
The first dimensional lifeforms that emerged were always the weakest, while the stronger ones only emerged a while later.
However, the first dimensional lifeform that emerged from the pinnacle subterranean dimensional rift was the Cla.s.s 4 Land Imp. This did not seem logical.
The only explanation for this event would be that the dimensional s.p.a.ce had ripped from the outside-in and coincidentally sucked in a Cla.s.s 4 Land Imp.
As such, Lin Yuan asked, “Big Brother Liu, was your Dimensional Light Moth the one that opened the subterranean dimensional rift?”
Liu Jie nodded and replied with a formal tone, “When you left to meet with the Withered Cliff Thief Death Corps, the Insect Queen produced 30 Hurricane Owlet Moths. I instructed 15 of them to survey the area while the other 15 kept watch over you. When the Insect Queen’s spirit hosts the Hurricane Owlet Moths, they can hear and comprehend sounds. After I learned what was happening on your side, I tried to come up with a way to achieve our original goal. Eventually, I decided that orchestrating a disaster would be the easiest way to go about it.”
The Dimensional Light Moth was an extremely dangerous insect-species carcinoma fey to control as it would produce dimensional rifts after consuming spatial areas.
Before Lin Yuan obtained the Shatter Spatial Stone, he had considered asking Liu Jie to use the Dimensional Light Moth to produce a dimensional rift that would supply Silver Corona’s sea of flowers with sustenance.
However, he had eventually decided against it.
Dimensional Light Moths that had not been nurtured were usually only around Bronze or Silver grade, and most would never reach Gold grade in their entire lives.
Such Dimensional Light Moths were already capable of producing Cla.s.s 4 dimensional rifts.
Liu Jie’s Dimensional Light Moth had already reached Diamond X/Legend, which was a level that no wild insect-species carcinoma fey could attain.
Lin Yuan estimated that the pinnacle Cla.s.s 2 dimensional rift was produced from the Dimensional Light Moth taking one bite. It would have produced a Cla.s.s 3 dimensional rift if it took a few more bites.
However, the Dimensional Light Moth might become useful once Silver Corona became strong enough.
Lin Yuan had originally planned on waiting until after the feast ended to have a chat with Mr. Feng.
But before Lin Yuan could make his move, Mr. Feng led Feng Jiazhi over to Lin Yuan and Liu Jie.
Mr. Feng and Feng Jiazhi bowed to Lin Yuan in grat.i.tude before bowing to Liu Jie as well.
Mr. Feng took out nine Silver Item-Storing Walnuts and gave them to Lin Yuan as he said, “I wanted to give you these Item-Storing Walnuts as a gift if you saved Bean. But now, you not only saved Bean but the entire Sincere Merchant Group as well. Unfortunately, these nine Item-Storing Walnuts are all that Jiazhi and I have. I hope you won’t be too dissatisfied.”
Lin Yuan looked into Mr. Feng and Feng Jiazhi’s eyes and saw their br.i.m.m.i.n.g sincerity.
He received one of the Item-Storing Walnuts and was about to test its ability to store items.
He discovered that there were about 100 square meters of s.p.a.ce within the Silver Item-Storing Walnut, which was about the storage s.p.a.ce of a Silver fey storage box.
However, there were two differences between the Item-Storing Walnut and Silver fey storage box.
The first difference was that the Silver Item-Storing Walnut had a limit to the number of times it could be used, and the items already within had to be removed each time it was used again.
Moreover, after being used 100 times, the Silver Item-Storing Walnut would completely lose its storage ability.
As such, the fey storage box was much more useful.
However, Lin Yuan wanted the Item-Storing Walnut more than he wanted fey storage boxes.
He would need 50,000 Silver Item-Storing Walnuts to make one return trip to and from the Radiance Federation and Divine Wood Federation.
50,000 Silver Item-Storing Walnuts did seem like a lot, but the higher grade Item-Storing Walnuts would be able to store more items.
Thus, Lin Yuan asked Mr. Feng, “Do you have any Gold Item-Storing Walnuts?”
Mr. Feng a.s.sumed that Lin Yuan was dissatisfied with this gift. He smiled bitterly and said, “These nine Silver Item-Storing Walnuts are truly everything that my family has. Gold Item-Storing Walnuts are a hundred times more valuable than Silver Item-Storing Walnuts. We don’t have the means to buy more than one or two Gold Item-Storing Walnuts. The Gold Item-Storing Walnuts are also limited to 1,000 uses before they lose their storage ability. Only the legendary Platinum Item-Storing Walnuts have unlimited usage. We have no use for Gold Item-Storing Walnuts, and nothing in the Divine Wood Federation can be used to match up to its value equitably. Hence, it isn’t profitable either.”
Lin Yuan knew that Mr. Feng was indirectly saying that they did not have any Gold Item-Storing Walnuts.
Thus, he asked instead, “Then, do you have any Bronze Item-Storing Walnuts?”
Lin Yuan had only seen Fu Di use the Bronze Item-Storing Walnut but did not know what its storage ability was.
He wanted Gold and Bronze Item-Storing Walnuts so he could make a comparison between their storage ability and the Silver Item-Storing Walnut’s storage ability.
