"In addition, a strange fruit occasionally appears in the city. It's very rare, but eating it can greatly increase a person's affinity with the extraordinary, raising the level of their extraordinary abilities. It can even allow ordinary people to awaken and become extraordinary. Mutated animals that eat this fruit will also evolve immediately."
Xu Zhi mentioned the black fruit in order to arouse the greed of people outside.
Sure enough, the moment the words fell, she could feel that Lin Zi's breathing had really changed, and the room fell into a long silence. It seemed that this news shocked these outsiders.
This also proves that this black fruit does not exist in the outside world.
From the moment he mentioned midnight, Xu Zhi was testing him. The other party's response to midnight showed that "midnight" did not exist in the outside world at all, and the fruit was a by-product of midnight, so it naturally could not exist in the outside world.
Even Xu Zhi was very eager for this black fruit, let alone others.
Sure enough, after a long silence, Lin Zizhen's slightly dry voice said, "Miss Xu, can you trade this fruit with us?"
Xu Zhi decisively refused: "No."
"This thing is very rare, and you have to take risks to fight with other creatures who covet the fruit. Even one is hard to come by. There is no way I can trade it for the core."
"The core is worth more than that."
Xu Zhi's tone was very decisive. At least it seemed that she really only intended to use this information to exchange for the core, and did not intend to exchange it with any tangible items.
After all, outsiders can't get in now, so she has nothing to fear.
"What if it's a higher-level core?" In the end, it was the outside party who spoke first.
Xu Zhi didn't show any surprise on his face, but was slightly troubled. "Even if it's a high-level core, the value doesn't match it."
Seeing Xu Zhi wavering, Lin Zizhen breathed a sigh of relief: "Miss Xu, it seems you have seen higher-level cores before, right?"
Xu Zhi nodded: "Of course."
"Then I wonder if Miss Xu knows that even these high-level cores have differences?"
"Oh? I'd like to hear more about it." Xu Zhi looked at Lin Zizhen curiously.
The other party revealed this information to her without choosing a fair trade. I think he did her a favor just for the black fruit.
"I wonder if Miss Xu has observed carefully. High-grade cores have crack-like threads inside that correspond to their attributes. The higher the purity, the greater the number of threads. The Special Investigation Office calls ordinary cores basic cores, and these high-grade cores are called attribute cores."
"Because these cores contain more extraordinary energy of the same attribute, they are more easily absorbed by extraordinary people. The energy brought by one attribute core far exceeds that of ten basic cores."
"We believe these threads are crystals of high-concentration properties."
"The levels are simply graded based on the number of silk threads within. Currently, a level one attribute core contains 1-10 silk threads, and so on. Unfortunately, we've only discovered level one attribute cores so far."
"But we believe that as time goes by, higher-level attribute cores will definitely appear."
"We are willing to exchange that fruit for a high-level core. However, since this type of core is rare, if Ms. Xu requires a certain quantity, the properties may not be fixed."
The outside world has far more manpower and material resources than Yuncheng, so they naturally discovered that one of the uses of the core is to be taken by extraordinary people. However, it is extremely risky for extraordinary people to swallow the basic core. It is not easy to restrain the mental pollution brought about by eating the core, which is similar to being in a fog, not to mention that the attribute energy in the basic core is slightly messy, making it even more difficult to digest.
Therefore, even if there is a shortcut of eating the core, the extraordinary people in the outside world would not dare to take the core continuously, because if they are not careful, they will turn from extraordinary people into madmen who have lost their minds.
The research institute is now studying how to make the basic core more suitable for use by extraordinary people. They are even considering whether to use some drug guidance, but there has not been much progress so far.
Therefore, high-level attribute cores with purer energy become extremely precious.
"How much are you willing to pay for one?" Xu Zhi asked.
Lin Zizhen quickly gave an answer: "If it still has those four attributes, we are willing to bid sixty pieces."
This is a very sincere answer. In the current Federation, the value of a basic core ranges from 20,000 to 100,000, depending on the attributes. However, a first-level attribute core, regardless of its attributes, can be sold for more than one million Federation coins, and this is still a high-priced market.
Sixty pieces is by no means a stingy answer. After all, Xu Zhi also required corresponding attributes.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Zizhen added, "If Miss Xu is willing to relax the attribute restrictions, we can pay one hundred coins."
Xu Zhi shook his head when he heard this: "It's still the attributes I requested, seventy pieces."
She added ten directly.
At the same time, she sighed in her heart that this was a vast federation with abundant resources. She only had one advanced core, but the other party could already offer a hundred to trade with her.
Although Yuncheng is big, it is still too small compared to the entire federation.
In fact, the [Cup] attribute also has an effect on Xu Zhi, but she doesn't want to reveal this.
Whether in the city or outside, [Cup] is obviously a taboo.
Lin Zizhen was silent, probably waiting for instructions.
Finally, Lin Zizhen looked up at Xu Zhi and said, "Okay, as a token of our sincerity, we will pay part of the money in advance. I hope you can deliver the goods this morning."
"Then it's settled." Xu Zhi nodded. "This fruit is hard to find. I'm not sure when I'll find it. I can only try my best."
Xu Zhi looked at the time and said, "Let's end this here. It's almost time. Bring me the basic core that should be given to me."
Hearing this, a man in combat uniform walked over to Lin Zizhen carrying a box. Lin Zizhen opened the box and took out a few bags that Xu Zhi was familiar with and handed them to her. "This is the price we are willing to pay. Once we get the evidence, we will pay an additional 200 basic cores. Are you satisfied, Miss Xu?"
Including the previous cores, this trip made a net profit of 2,800 cores, and 200 to be paid. Xu Zhi was quite satisfied.
She did not hide her satisfaction and said in a happy voice, "Not bad. I look forward to the next transaction."
However, the next transaction will probably have to wait for a while, at least until she transforms this batch of cores into strength.
Soon, the spiritual body time ended and Xu Zhi returned to his body.
Looking at the warehouse full of cores, Xu Zhi made a plan in his mind.
First of all, she must advance her extraordinary level, and secondly, let several followers digest all these cores. During this period of time, she also needs to learn swordsmanship from Shen Jinwen. At present, she has the power but does not know how to use it, which is very troublesome.
Furthermore, the exploration of the mountains cannot be stopped, and she has no idea whether there will be any more problems with the growth of this alien clan.
Now she has further whetted the outside world's appetite for Yuncheng. I guess many people won't be able to sleep tonight.
I just wonder how long it will take before she can choose not to sleep at night and go outside to experience what "midnight" is?
