Chapter 311: Chapter 312: Gathering Raw Materials

All along the way, players were filled with surprise. In the royal city, they were unable to use mounts, lacking both the permission and the privilege to do so!

But the dust-setting figure they had just observed was undoubtedly a player, something no one could mistake.

As they observed his retreating figure, the bystanders quickly comprehended who this person really was. Aside from him, who else could possess such status?!

Some players, sensing the unusual, immediately ran in the direction Night Ghost was heading. The place Night Ghost was going must be unusual. Checking it out could never hurt, right? What if they were to stumble upon an opportunity, or uncover some path to wealth?

Many players saw Night Ghost in a new light now—instead of being the overpowering, mysterious, flashy high roller, he was becoming a trendsetter, representing riches and opportunity!

No matter what, following Night Ghost had to be right! Even if it was for nothing more than watching, it would still be rewarding! This had become the belief of many gamers.

Ah! You guys are the pioneers of seeing the world as it really is!

The headquarters of the Auden Exchange Guild was in a relatively remote location. Even riding on his velociraptor, Chu You took two minutes to get there.

Compared to other neighborhoods, this was a quieter place. Chu You dismounted at the door of the guild and walked in with steady steps.

The Auden Exchange Guild was a large-scale organization, with its branches spread across the seven major nations. Their main job was purchasing ore collected by players, as well as selling mining tools to players.

Early on, when players didn’t realize the importance of Auden ore, they sold it to the guild for a cheap price. When they finally realized its true value, they were filled with regret.

Inside the large building, aside from NPCs bustling around, Chu You saw only two players seeking information. They had not noticed his arrival.

With one glance, Chu You walked directly toward a merchant at the counter.

"Boss, I want to buy Auden mining tools," Chu You said straightforwardly to the merchant.

This merchant, initially listless, immediately beamed at the sight of a customer: "We have lots, from all levels of mining tools."

"Take out your best stuff."

The merchant’s hand quickly flashed, and as the light disappeared, he was holding a small golden device that looked exquisitely made. He said enthusiastically to Chu You: "Sir, this is an Auden extractor. It’s the quickest tool for obtaining Auden and is a boon for you that would save you significant time."

Chu You immediately chose it, and instantly its information was displayed.

Auden Extractor: Reduces the collection time of any grade of Auden by 30%. This item has a usage time of 4 hours, after which the extractor will automatically disappear.

"What’s the price?"

"It’s 1500 Gold Coin each, sir," replied the merchant with a bow.

"Okay, I’ll take 200," Chu You calmly nodded.

"Ummm... very well, sir, you are a big spender. We have just 300 Auden extractors in stock. We didn’t expect to meet such a generous customer. Haha!" The merchant, who had clearly not expected Chu You to order so many at once, was noticeably ingratiating.

"You have 300 in total? I’ll take them all," Chu You said, his eyes flashing.

"Eh?"

"Is something wrong?"

"No, not at all, sir. All good." The merchant turned and opened a cabinet behind him, taking out a box. He presented the black-patterned box to Chu You, saying, "Inside this box are 300 Auden extractors, which is all the stock we have. It will be a total of 450,000 Gold Coin."

Without another word, Chu You transferred the 450,000 Gold Coin to the merchant.

System: You have received 300 Auden extractors.

Chu You immediately put the large box into his bag’s space. The box only occupied one grid space, a user-friendly design feature that pleased Chu You.

Just as Chu You was about to leave, the merchant stopped him.

"Distinguished guest, we don’t only sell tools, we also buy Auden that you’ve mined. We welcome your return at any time."

"Haha..." With a light laugh, Chu You didn’t reply and turned to leave.

At this time, the players who had followed earlier arrived here half believingly and half doubtingly. When they saw the tall and slender Night Ghost was indeed here, their eyes flashed with excitement in this moment.

"Ah, check it out, the great Night Ghost is right here."

"Wow, what place is this? The Auden Exchange Guild?"

"Why would the Ghostly Night Great God come here? What’s here?" A flurry of voices emerged all at once.

Seeing this group of players smiling amicably at him, Chu You returned the smile and gave them a slight nod before heading out. He then summoned his mount once more and rushed towards the teleportation circle, leaving behind a group of excited onlooker players.

"Did you see that, the Ghostly Night Great God just smiled at me!"

"No, he was smiling at me!"

"Never mind that, hurry up and check it out inside, I don’t have the stamina to keep following him." The players here soon all entered this desolate building.

Chu You didn’t go straight back to the guild, but he had some errands to run first.

Arriving at the teleportation circle, Chu You directly teleported to Jiangshan City. He had been to this large port town before, where he had bought a T6 Chiyou One Warship.

Coming here again was to purchase ship construction materials. Upon getting to the signpost, he briefly checked his destination, memorized the route, and summoned his mount once again.

Not long afterwards, Chu You arrived at the location of the Precision Forging Guild. When he showed his token as proof of being a Marquis, the six level 50 guards at the front door immediately expressed their respect and allowed Chu You to enter. If not, he would have had to go through a whole lot of persuasion and strategizing.

Upon entering, a man who looked like an engineer immediately came over.

"May I ask what brings you here?"

"I’m here to purchase ship construction materials from you."

"May I have your esteemed name?"

"My name is Night Ghost."

"Ah, it turns out you are the Champion Marquis, I apologize for my rudeness."

"It’s fine, let’s get down to business."

"Alright then, please come inside."

After both made their way to a spacious room, the other party asked with a respectful tone, "May I ask what level of the spaceship does Marquis plan to build?"

"A basic spaceship body."

"Ah, so it’s the rumored original body. I’ve heard that this type of spaceship is highly malleable with plenty of room for alterations. Congratulations to the Marquis for obtaining this treasure. I wonder what parts and materials the Marquis requires from our Precision Forging Guild?" The Minister Engineer was surprised to hear it was the long-lost original spaceship body and immediately congratulated Chu You on acquiring this treasure.

"Don’t congratulate me, I’m just doing this for someone else. Look, this is what I need." Chu You handed the engineer a list. Besides Auden original materials and strategic resources, all the materials required were listed on it.

The engineer glanced at the list and soon broke out in a grin, "Marquis, we have all the materials you require. The only thing is the price..."

"It doesn’t matter, I came prepared."

"Haha, in that case, it will total 240,000 Gold Coins."

"240,000 it is. Can I get the materials right now?"

"Of course, I’ll have someone pack up the materials the Marquis requires immediately."

And so, they conducted the transaction joyously. After this, Chu You followed the engineer to the lobby. Here, Chu You saw eight large iron boxes placed, each corresponding to the eight different types of resources.

Chu You pressed his hand on one of the iron boxes and it was immediately stored in his spatial backpack. One large iron box occupied four slots, and in the end, Chu You stuffed the remaining seven large iron boxes into his backpack.

After all this, there was only one trip left to the Spiritual Stone Mine. There, he had previously placed five Puppet Miners who had been continuously digging for spiritual stones.
