“Ah, life is so beautiful!” As he looked at Granzon parked outside the window, Hong Dali sighed. “Life here is really good. When I have enough money in the future, I will return to Earth once a week. If the opportunity arises, I will ask Dad and Mum to come here to have some fun too, hehe!”

“It costs a lot to s.p.a.ce warp!” Tang Long cried. “Can you not be so prodigal?!”

“Of course not!” said Hong Dali.

Now that they had a base camp, the next step was to start laying a good foundation.

Hong Dali began to make arrangements. “Well, brothers, start getting busy! Sister Xiaoyi, you"re responsible for inquiring about the prices of items here. That is your forte, hehe.”

Ling Xiaoyi smiled and agreed. “OK, Young Master.”

“James,” Hong Dali directed James. “You make movies. You need to know yourself as well as your opponent so you will not lose to them. Naturally, you must first understand the enemy"s situation. Watch the movies here. Well, if there"s a chance I want to watch them too. Let me know when you find them.”

“Okay, Young Master Dali.” James was very respectful towards Hong Dali now. “I will do as per your instructions.”

“As for Xinxin and Sister Nianwei, ah, and Heartbreaker, our task is more difficult.” Hong Dali turned to look at Tang Muxin, Li Nianwei, and Lucifer, who had been standing quietly to one side looking around curiously. “We will enter the Galaxy Virtual Network and take a look to see what else is going on around here.”

“Okay, okay, no problem!” Going adventuring in the Galaxy Virtual Network and looking around to see what the virtual world was like was a good job. The three immediately agreed.

As for Levis, his task was very simple—there was a special gym in the villa. All he had to do was workout and digest what w.a.n.g Daoming had taught him…

Soon, the work distribution was completed and everyone started to move off to their own tasks.

Ling Xiaoyi, the valuation genius, was responsible for enquiring about the prices here. The Hollywood people were responsible for looking for movies to watch. Hong Dali, Tang Muxin, Li Nianwei, and Lucifer were going into the virtual world.

On the vast expanse of the continent, three people appeared with a frame refresh.

This was a ma.s.sive city. It was impossible to see its end. Huge creatures flew past overhead in the sky from time to time, looking similar to the dragons in western legends.

The city was similar to medieval cities in fantasy stories on Earth, just that it was bigger and even more spectacular.

The street was particularly large at fifty meters wide. There were people coming and going. Every now and then, people appeared and disappeared. That was when people entered the world or left it.

The AI butler Tang Long had become a little pandlike creature perched on Hong Dali"s shoulders—in the virtual world, in order to distinguish people from smart butlers, smart butlers appeared in pet form. Tang Long had chosen to be a panda, the cutest. Birds of a feather flock together. Judging from his character, Tang Long had a lot of potential in becoming an amusing idiot.

When they arrived, Hong Dali, Tang Muxin, Li Nianwei, and Lucifer were out of their element.

Although they had connected to the Galaxy Virtual Network on Earth, it could only be regarded as a newly discovered land, barren and undeveloped. Nothing had been built yet.

It was totally different here. The streets were crowded and the roads surrounded by a variety of beautiful buildings. There were a variety of storefronts like weapons stores, armor shops, props stores, hospitals, and many more. There were more things for sale here than one could imagine.

The four of them walked and looked around. They had just arrived and many things were unfamiliar, but it was just window shopping. The keyword was “shopping”—Hong Dali was most satisfied with the fact that he did not get tired while shopping in the virtual world…

As they were walking, they suddenly heard a shout from the crowd. “Have a glance, take a look! The latest Alien Core, complete attributes, we have it in high, mid and low-grades. If you"re pa.s.sing by, don"t miss it!!”

“Alien Core? What is that?” Hong Dali asked Tang Long, who was on his shoulder. “Is it something very valuable?”

“So-so.” Tang Long, who had taken on the appearance of a panda, sighed and said, “The Alien Core is one of the most important things in the virtual world. You must understand that currency in this world has an equivalent value in the real world. This made people more than willing to explore various worlds—the Alien Core is a magic stone that can increase a character"s attributes. As the name implies, this is an energy core from the body of an alien. It contains very powerful forces. Inlaid on weapons or armor, it can greatly enhance a character"s attributes.

“In addition, the Alien Core can also be integrated with other medicinal materials through an alchemist"s refining. It has all kinds of magical effects and is an essential medicine for adventure. Therefore, you should be able to deduce its value.”

“Oh, I wondered what it was.” Hong Dali pouted. “Isn"t it just a gem for inlaying? They made it sound so mysterious…”

“F**k!” Tang Long cursed ungentlemanly. He said, “What do you know? A Strength +5 Alien Core is worth at least two thousand Galaxy Dollars! The more attributes it adds, the higher the value! An Alien Core that adds ten attribute points is worth at least thirty thousand Galaxy Dollars! Not everyone can afford to use such a thing! If there are higher level gems that can increase the power of fighting moves, it will be even more expensive! Country b.u.mpkins who don"t understand anything should not disgrace themselves here!”

Country b.u.mpkins?

Hong Dali rubbed his nose. He remembered that he could make attribute gems, so he usually could not be bothered to look at ordinary gems…

Tang Long continued to explain important information about the Alien Core to Hong Dali. “The Alien Core enhances the attributes of human beings and contains many mysterious relics and different dimensions, so that people have more chances to save themselves when faced with danger. You must know that not everyone can enter places with precious resources and rare items just because they want to! For example, a different dimension which has a lot of valuable materials, but is accessible only once a month or even only once a year. If you die, you"ll have to wait for the next time it is accessible. At that time, with the enhanced attributes given by the Alien Core, it might be possible to obtain more treasure from inside. Without these added attributes, you might not survive the abuse inside—you get it.”

Yes, now they understood. Everything was for the sake of adventure.

Simply put, with the attributes given by this Alien Core, people could make more money.

Hong Dali and the other three had a little more understanding why people were so desperate to buy the core.

Tang Long continued, “So, although one core can only increase attributes by five or six points, how many pieces of equipment can a person wear? One piece can be inlaid with one to three cores. With a total of many tens of cores on various equipment, the attribute increase will be much more than just a little. Those who have martial arts secret manuals which boost their attributes will definitely get into a frenzy trying to obtain a good core when they see one!”

Even if you can set up thirty cores, one core will increase the power by five points. This is one hundred and five. Then, there is a doubling of martial arts. That is, three hundred forces…

If they calculated it like that, this was really popular!

“Dali, since it"s so fun, let"s go take a look?” Tang Muxin pulled Hong Dali"s hand and said excitedly, “Even if we don"t buy anything, it"ll be fun to have a look. Anyway, we"re not in a hurry to go explore.”

“Okay, no problem.” Hong Dali sniffled and then followed the flow of people to the Alien Core shop.

Anyway, they were there to familiarize themselves with the surroundings, so Hong Dali did not really mind.

“Ladies and gentlemen, are you thinking of buying some Alien Cores?” Once they entered the store, a salesperson approached and greeted them respectfully. “Our store has just received a new batch of Alien Cores of all qualities. May I know what kind of attributes you are looking for, Sir?”

“Ah, we"re just looking,” Hong Dali said with a smile. He did not feel embarra.s.sed at all. “How many attribute points does your best core add? How much is it?”

When he heard that Hong Dali was just browsing, the salesperson immediately lost interest in entertaining him. There were so many customers, why would he want to waste time on people who were just browsing? The salesperson pointed to a sign at the side and said, “They are all up there. You can see for yourself, Sir.”

“Hahaha, got looked down upon?!” Tang Long gloated and said, “You don"t even know what to say. Even if you are not buying you should at least pretend, hahaha!”

“Actually, I did it on purpose,” Hong Dali said with a smile. “I hate long introductions. I can just see for myself and decide if I want to buy.”

The four of them walked to the front of the sign. The prices of the cores were quite standardized—

Five attribute points—Strength: 2000 Galaxy Dollars, Agility: 1500 Galaxy Dollars, Reflexes: 1200 Galaxy Dollars.

Six attribute points—Strength: 4,000, Agility: 3,000, Reflexes: 2,400.

Seven attribute points—Strength: 8,000, Agility: 6,000, Reflexes: 4,800.

Eight attribute points…

Nine attribute points…

Ten attribute points—Strength: 64,000, Agility: 48,000, Reflexes: 38,400.

This was actually nothing. The stars of the show were the percentage increase cores. An increase of 10% cost 50,000. 20%, 100,000. 30%, 200,000. 40% and 50% were out of stock!

d.a.m.n, this stuff was really expensive!

The villa that Hong Dali had just bought had a livable area of 1,400 square meters. It was only three million. However, a percentage increase core that could increase attributes by 30% cost two hundred thousand! It was equivalent to one-fifteenth of the villa! One core was equal to a house that was one hundred square meters!

My G.o.d, it"s robbery!

Hong Dali suddenly touched his nose. This seemed a little too much…

He now had a little over twenty thousand Galaxy Dollars left. It seemed that this amount of money was only enough to be pocket money…

After they left the core store, Hong Dali and the other three people window-shopped along the shopping street. A look there, a glance here. It was quite leisurely. The important thing was, they had no specific purpose in mind, they were just familiarizing themselves with the place!

Soon, the few of them stopped in front of a small vendor. Tang Muxin extended a pale, dainty hand and casually picked up an aqueous-blue gemstone necklace. She postured with it on her neck and asked Hong Dali with a smile, “Dali, does it look good?”
