Chapter 295 Repairing the Stargazing Mirror
Zhang Yue has been really busy these days.
Lin Zhen got some secret book, then went back to the tent and never came out, leaving everything to him.
Considering that Zhang Yue is a businessman, he really can't understand what Lin Zhen is doing now.
This kid is rich, but he is too spendthrift. Apart from placing some poured equipment at the door of the tent on a regular basis every day, he cannot be found the rest of the time. Moreover, Lin Zhen gave Zhang Yue a large sum of money!
Three hundred billion! This three hundred billion in cash was for Zhang Yue to use to buy things. Lin Zhen had even started to collect those strange coins, including silver and gold coins, and also a rare white crystal coin. I don’t know what else that thing could be used for besides looking good.
This is fine and not worth much money, but Lin Zhen started to purchase star weapons in large quantities.
Now many war gods have star weapons in their hands, or even more than one or two. Some unused star weapons are difficult to digest for the time being, but Lin Zhen has started to purchase them.
No matter whether it is low-grade, medium-grade, or high-grade or top-grade, Lin Zhen accepts all of them, and he mainly purchases weapons. He buys less armor. The cheaper the better, and the more the better.
Zhang Yue did some calculations. If Lin Zhen hadn't made such a large-scale purchase, this stall could have made 50 billion a day! However, under Lin Zhen's crazy purchase, not only did he lose the 50 billion he made every day, but he also had to lose another 50 billion! Especially after the news spread, many masters above the level of God of War from all over the world came here to sell their equipment. On the most profitable day, Zhang Yue even spent 110 billion on the purchase!
The money was spent like water, making Zhang Yue's heart tremble. As far as he knew, Lin Zhen already had more than two thousand star instruments. He really didn't know what Lin Zhen wanted these star instruments for, since they couldn't be eaten or drunk.
Moreover, Lin Zhen’s tent was moved quite far away. Every day, there would sometimes be fire there, and sometimes it would be inflated by the wind. No one knew what he was doing.
Recently he heard that the Divine Cult seemed to be making a big move. The Holy Son Yan Huang was meeting with the leaders of countries around the world, and no one knew what they were discussing. Zhang Yue had no chance to talk to Lin Zhen and could only wait for Lin Zhen to come out.
******** Lin Zhen has been very busy these days. Apart from completely memorizing the secret of the fifth level of the Nine-Layered Spear River, he didn't even have time to practice. He was doing something else.
Star shift!
Lin Zhen thinks very far ahead. When humans leave the solar system and head towards the interstellar space, the outside world will not be so easy to survive in.
If a warrior wants to practice and reach the top, talent and perseverance alone are not enough, he also needs a lot of resources, which means money.
Although Lin Zhen has now collected a lot of interstellar currency, this is far from enough. He needs to have the ability to make money.
So he finally started something he had been planning for a long time, which was star shifting.
Repairing a stargazer is star shifting, and star shifting is not such a simple thing. In the interstellar world, there is a very profitable but also expensive profession called a star shifter. Just like repairing a stargazer, it is to transfer the star power in other star devices to an abandoned star device of the same level to complete the star shift.
It is not necessary to transfer one star tool for every ten. The higher the level of the star shifter and the higher the quantity, the fewer star tools will be used.
If you want to become a star shifter, you must first become a star shifter apprentice.
Apprentices are divided into four levels: third grade, second grade, first grade, and crosshair shifter.
For a third-grade star shifter apprentice, the passing score is three to one, which means that one can complete the star shift of a single lower-grade star tool using three lower-grade star tools.
The second grade is also three to one, but it completes the star shift of a mid-grade star weapon.
The first grade is also three to one, which is to complete the star shift of the top grade star tool.
The star shifter completes the star shift of the top-grade star weapon, with a consumption ratio of three to one. If the ratio is lower than this, it will not be considered qualified.
As for the real star shifters, they can achieve a three to one success rate in star shifting holy instruments, and for star instrument-level star shifting, the success rate is almost one to one.
Currently, almost no one on Earth has the financial resources to do this, because star shifting must be done from low to high. The success of a star shifter is built on countless failed star shifts, and only then can one gradually complete star shifting with fewer star tools.
But Lin Zhen can do it. He has 400 billion in cash and a super strong ability to infuse equipment. He can make money while making acquisitions to complete his mastery of Star Shift.
However, Lin Zhen did not start the star shift immediately. He was familiar with the process of star shift. At present, he already had a star shift furnace. He would put the target to be star shifted on the upper layer, and then put the material star tool on the lower layer, calcine it with the powerful force of flame, and then transfer the star power to the upper layer.
He currently has mastered a deep orange flame, and this level of flame can at most move a mid-level star weapon. If he wants to achieve a higher level, he needs powerful firepower.
However, if he wants to make his firepower even stronger, he will need at least a large number of quasi-SS-level crystals.
He didn't have such a crystal, and it wasn't sold on the market, so he had to resonate with the wind element. The fire could borrow the power of the wind and become more powerful.
Lin Zhen also acquired a lot of wind element crystals, and this time it just happened to strengthen their resonance.
Resonance was not difficult for Lin Zhen who possessed the Dark Star. Lin Zhen completed it in two hours. The wind element in his body could form a maximum wind force of level six.
But this was not enough, Lin Zhen absorbed a lot of A-level elemental crystals, allowing the wind force in his body to reach level nine.
Level nine was not enough. Lin Zhen also had some S-level crystals, so he simply absorbed them as well, and eventually his wind power reached level twelve.
A wind force of level twelve seemed very strong, but Lin Zhen knew that it was not that strong. Yue Zhenhua's wind force had reached level fifteen, which was the power of a real hurricane. However, that required a quasi-SS-level crystal, which he did not have.
The maximum wind speed on Earth can reach level 18, which is almost a world-destroying storm for humans, but it is nothing in the interstellar space.
As far as Lin Zhen knows, there are levels above level 18. A level 21 storm is called a doomsday storm, which can easily destroy all traces of the earth, even causing mountain collapses and continental plates to drift.
Above level 21 is a level 24 hurricane, which is called a galactic storm and can even destroy asteroids.
Above level twenty-four, you can reach level twenty-seven, which is called a space storm. It can sweep across an entire galaxy. Lin Zhen has only heard of it in legends.
Those were too far away for Lin Zhen at the moment. His current level 12 wind force, if transformed into a wisp and released a little, would be enough for him to use for his current Star Shift.
After completing the absorption of the wind element, Lin Zhen even tried the absorption resonance of the earth element.
He also bought some energy crystals of the earth element, both A-level and S-level ones. As long as he could absorb the earth element, the Dark Star would have real soil and could be transformed into a physical entity. He believed that his strength would be able to make another breakthrough.
But after trying, Lin Zhen was frustrated to find that because the Dark Star had become very condensed, lower-level forces could no longer be integrated.
In other words, if Lin Zhen wants to resonate and absorb the earth element, then A-level or S-level crystals will no longer be enough. He needs at least quasi-SS-level or even higher crystals to do it.
This discovery made Lin Zhen a little disappointed. If he had known earlier, he would have absorbed the earth element earlier. He waited for a while to stabilize his realm, but something went wrong.
"Forget it. If it's not absorbed, then it's not absorbed. I'll wait until I get a high-level earth element crystal in the future."
Lin Zhen didn't dwell on this matter, but started Star Shift.
The first thing he took out was a piece of armor he got from Yue Feng. The star power in it had been completely consumed. He placed it on the upper level of the Star Shifting Furnace, and ten low-grade star weapons were placed on the lower level.
He raised his hand, flames appeared, and were injected into the Star Shift Furnace.
Then he raised his hand again, and a gust of wind reaching level seven blew in, blowing continuously, causing the temperature of the flame to rise higher and higher.
The ten inferior star tools below began to emit faint starlight and continued to move upwards.
Lin Zhen tried his best to stop the loss of star power with his mental strength, which seemed a little clumsy.
Ten minutes later...
A burst of starlight splashed across the sky, and the ten inferior star weapons below were all scrapped.
"Huh! I failed, but it doesn't matter. My skills are not yet mature enough, and the coordination between firepower and windpower is not very good. Most star shifters in the interstellar space only have firepower but not windpower. After all, not everyone can master two elemental powers. I must lay this foundation. In the future, if I want to be the best star shifter, firepower and windpower must be well coordinated. Anyway, there are plenty of star tools, and I can afford them."
In the next few days, Lin Zhen began to go into a state of crazy consumption. One star weapon after another turned into scrap, and his star shift was gradually becoming more proficient.
On the second day, Lin Zhen finally successfully repaired the armor at the cost of ten star weapons.
With this breakthrough, Lin Zhen's subsequent progress became much smoother.
With the continuous loss of a large number of star tools, he was able to move one star with only five low-grade star tools by the next night.
On the morning of the third day, he reached four.
On the third night, he finally reached the three-to-one requirement and became a lower-grade Star Shifter apprentice.
However, Lin Zhen did not stop. He began to try the middle-grade star weapon Star Shift.
More than a thousand low-grade star tools and more than six hundred medium-grade star tools were consumed by Lin Zhen in five days! But his achievement was also huge. At noon on the sixth day, Lin Zhen repaired the medium-grade star tools at a rate of three to one, and the low-grade star tools at a rate of two to one. He was considered a medium-grade star shifter apprentice.
Even by the early morning of the seventh day, he had consumed hundreds of high-quality star weapons. This speed of spending money can be said to be unprecedented.
And he finally completed the repair of the stargazing mirror at the cost of a large number of high-quality star tools! (End of this chapter)
