The Age of Giant Ships and Cannons

  Chapter 68 Ye Xiao's Generosity

Ye Xiao's appearance at this time has not changed from before, and the glowing hair condensed with psionic energy does not look as dazzling as before. Changes after pure condensation.

  As soon as he connected, he asked in a deep voice:

   "What is the highest bid now?"

   Lu Qing replied immediately:

   "2,250 billion stars."

  Ye Xiao's face remained unchanged, and he said in a deep voice:

   "Another 50 billion."

   "I'll contact them right away."

  Lu Qing immediately opened another communication, and said to the eleven anonymous players in the channel:

   "We will add another material equivalent to 50 billion star dollars, with a total value of 2.3 trillion star dollars."

   However, there was no response from the other side.

   Lu Qing froze for a moment, then continued:

   "We will add another material equivalent to 50 billion star dollars, with a total value of 2.3 trillion star dollars."

   Someone responded this time, and one of the invisible people said:

   "Excuse me, we already have a deal with one of them."

   Lu Qing was taken aback, and asked quickly:

   "I don't know how much that person bid?"

   "Secret!"

   Lu Qing

  He immediately relayed the news he had just received to Ye Xiao on the other channel. Ye Xiao was also taken aback for a moment, and immediately said:

   "Add another 200 billion stars."

  The three of them were stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but click their tongues in their hearts.

   Lu Qing quickly turned around and forwarded Ye Xiao's new offer. The other side was also taken aback, and one of them couldn't help complaining:

   "It's really a big dog."

  Looked up at the other companions and asked:

   "You said, should you make the decision or continue with the decision just now?"

   After a few seconds of silence, one of them said:

   "Continue to refuse."

   "I really refuse."

"You are stupid, why do you think about having a psyker in your hands? This can directly improve the core competitiveness of all of us. If we are all psykers and can successfully ascend with psychic power, how much can our strength be improved? 200 billion minutes can be earned back.”

"Row."

   Then Lu Qing was dumbfounded. It took him a while to turn his head and was still in surprise. Ye Xiao frowned on the other side of the channel and asked:

"what's wrong?"

   Lu Qing came back to his senses and said:

   "They declined."

   "???"

   "They declined."

   "Is there a higher price?"

   "I don't know, it's all anonymous."

  Ye Xiao was extremely surprised. He lightly tapped the armrest of the command chair with his fingers. He was silent for a few minutes, and finally lifted it up, as if making a difficult decision, and said:

   "Send them a message, and I will add another 500 billion star yuan, a total of 3 trillion star yuan for various materials and warships, including various items and rare props."

"what"

   Lu Qing couldn't help but swallowed. To be honest, this offer was crazy even considering his background, but he didn't think it was worth it. The real value of this mother chip far exceeds this price.

  If it is placed in the hinterland of the Human Alliance, it will be estimated to be at least five trillion or more.

   "I don't know why the seller's mind is crazy, so eager to sell."

  A minute later, Lu Qing suddenly opened his mouth wide, his eyes were extremely surprised, and asked quickly after a long while:

   "What is the highest price now, we can continue to increase the price."

  However, the opposite responds directly:

   "Sorry, we all passed, we have accepted another bid, and we will not change our minds unless you bid another two trillion."

  The communication was shut down, Lu Qing was stunned, and Ye Xiao immediately asked on the other side:

"what happened?"

  He opened his mouth and said:

   "They say they have all agreed to accept one of the bids, and no other bids will be accepted now, unless."

   "Unless what?"

   "Unless we add another two trillion."

Everyone was surprised. Ye Xiao, who had already arrived at the black market space station, also raised his eyebrows. This time, he didn't ask Lu Qing any more. Instead, he opened his address book and sent messages to several of his acquaintances who were also in this galaxy. a message.

   Soon one of them responded:

   "We were rejected too."

   "How much did you end up bidding?"

   "2.8 trillion star yuan, he told us that unless we add another 5 trillion star yuan, there is nothing to talk about."

   At this time, there are two other communications responding one by one:

   "We offered 3.2 trillion stars, but rejected it."

   "We offered 3,000 billion stars and rejected it directly."

  After reading the information, Ye Xiao knew it well, and said in a deep voice:

   "Obviously, someone offered a treasure that the seller couldn't refuse, otherwise it would be impossible to reject our bid so decisively."

  He was silent for a while, and said to the two brothers Lu Qing and Lu Yi, as well as Cai Qi of Halo:

   "This item is very important to our halo, we must get it, I need everyone's support, and I will win it with the strength of the team."

  The two Yi Qing brothers nodded:

   "One thing to say, this thing is indeed very important."

  The two looked at Cai Qi, who nodded too, looked at Ye Xiao and asked:

   "I support this, and I can also support part of the funds, but there are not many team members here at this time, and it may be too late when we go back to gather team members to raise money."

  Ye Xiao nodded in satisfaction, and said:

   "There is no need to worry about this. We can first estimate the maximum funds that the team can raise, and talk to them first. With the strength of our halo, I believe we can win their trust."

"Well"

   "Give me his contact information, and I will talk about it in person."

   Lu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately gave Ye Xiao the seller's contact information.

  Ye Xiao connected to the communication and said directly:

   "I am Ye Xiao, deputy head of Halo, and we are willing to pay 5 trillion star yuan to buy the mother chip in your hands."

  The sellers who were discussing with Li Qing how to trade were all stunned, and it took a while before someone murmured:

   "Are you crazy? Someone really paid five trillion?"

   For this mother chip, Ye Xiao is bound to get it, no matter how high the price is.

  Again, any top player who aspires to Star Marine Master is bound to win.

  Because after this village, there is no such shop.

  Give up this time, you may have to pay multiple times the price in the future, and you may not be able to get it.

   This is the frigate's mother chip. A third-level civilization like the Shata Tribal United Civilization will only have one. The three alien civilizations on the Zutar side only have three frigate mother chips.

  Of course, this second-level mother chip obviously does not belong to any of the three major alien races.

  The mother chip can appear in the form of a battle item, which can only mean that that civilization has become extinct.

   This also means that, unless there are special circumstances, the outpost base can only give birth to a maximum of three star navy masters under normal circumstances, and a maximum of three new provinces can be separated.

  The emergence of this new second-level civilization frigate mother chip now means the possibility of the birth of the fourth Star Marine Lord.

  Not likely, but possible.

   It is worth mentioning that the mother chip is not the only way to plunder the technological crystallization of alien civilizations, but this way is the most convenient and direct.

  In addition, some ancient relic-level boxes, super graves above the mythical level, some super dungeons, etc. are all likely to dig up some technological crystals left over from the ruined civilizations in ancient times.

   In addition, players can also rely on their own cohesion.

  The method is to establish a base, complete immigration, and then establish three major laboratories of physics, biology, and engineering. Through the ability of scientists, they can condense their own mother chip according to the evolution process of civilization and technology.

This road is the most difficult. From the first level of civilization to the fifth level of civilization, it contains a series of scientific and technological crystallization. The frigate mother chip is only one of them, and all battleships plus a series of weapon matching related mother chips are all added up. Just one series.

  In addition to these, there are a series of scientific and technological crystals related to biology and a series of scientific and technological crystals related to physics.

   Only when all the technological crystallizations of these three routes are condensed and upgraded to level five can one be promoted to Star Marine Lord.

  This is equivalent to completely evolving a civilization from scratch, even if there are ready-made references, it is extremely difficult.

  After all, the evolution from scratch is not just a painting of a gourd.

   It sounds complicated, but it is actually more complicated than imagined.

  At least, among the more than 200 star navy masters in the United Empire of Mankind, there are less than ten of them who really condensed their own scientific and technological crystallization from scratch, which shows the difficulty.

  No matter how pretentious Ye Xiao is, he would never think that he has the ability to condense his own scientific and technological crystallization from scratch. The most convenient and quickest thing is naturally to pick up ready-made ones.

so.

  This decision is not crazy, but carefully thought through.

   But for the eleven sellers, he was crazy. Even if they wanted to sell at a high price, they never thought that someone would offer a high price of five trillion yuan.

   Normally, even if you go to Jinmen, even if you go to the hinterland of the United Empire of Mankind, five trillion star dollars is already considered a high price.

   "So, how do we respond?"

  Even if they had already decided to make a deal with Li Qing, they had to stop at this time.

  No way, he gave too much.

  On average, each person can get more than 400 billion star dollars, which is a lot of money for a large team like Halo, not to mention for individuals, they can buy more than a dozen battleships in one go.

  So, while Li Qing was communicating with them about the details of the transaction, they suddenly interrupted all of them. After a while, they reconnected. One of them said to him:

   "Sorry, I have bad news to inform you that a lunatic bid 5 trillion stars to buy the mother chip in our hands."

  Li Qing was an old man looking at his mobile phone in the subway, with a puzzled look on his face.

   "Crazy?"

   "It's the same as you think, and we think so too, but they did bid like this, and the bidder's identity and strength are sure to be able to afford this price."

   "Nimma."

  Li Qing was quite speechless.

   After being silent for a while, he spread his hands and said:

   "If this is the case, then I quit."

   There is really no way, five trillion stars can afford it, what can he say.

  Closing off the communication, he let out a long breath and leaned back in his chair, while Li Lie asked beside him:

   "Failed?"

  He nodded and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw a communication request from the seller, connected with doubts, and said:

   "I don't have that much money, I can't afford it."

  One of them said:

   "That's right, we want to buy the opportunity to awaken psykers from you, one hundred billion stars each."

  Li Qing directly shook his head and said:

   "Sorry, this can't be traded."

   Immediately ask on the opposite side:

   "Is there not enough money? We can add more."

"no."

"what is that?"

   Li Qing, who was about to close the communication, paused, and explained patiently:

"It's like this, forcibly awakening psionic energy out of thin air for a living body without psionic talent, it needs to consume the source and a lot of power of the psychic saint. The power can be restored, but the original source cannot be restored. Fall forever."

   "In order to buy that mother chip, its value was worth my permanent consumption of the origin of the psychic saint, but it cannot be traded now. Money alone is not enough for me to make this decision."

   "Unless the price increases tenfold!"

  The last sentence was not uttered, but he was talking to himself, and of course it was true. If they were really willing to pay the price of one trillion star dollars per person, he would consider whether to scrap this psychic saint to make this money.

  How could such an unrepeatable treasure that could only be obtained by chance be sold so cheaply?

  He refused so decisively that the mother chip seller didn't know what to say.

   After disconnecting, eleven people got together to discuss who to sell to.

   On the one hand, there are extremely rare opportunities to awaken psykers, and on the other hand, they are given too much money, which makes them very embarrassed.

  Eleven people had a heated exchange, some were inclined to take money, and some were inclined to awaken psionic power.

   But there is one thing that is unified, they all want to awaken psionic power.

   They soon discovered this, and someone said:

   "Well, let's talk to that person again and see if he can add a little more."

   "How much to add?"

   "The thing given by the psyker seems to be purchased in an individual capacity. Non-team funds are limited, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to add too much."

   "Let him owe it again, anyway, it was agreed to pay in installments before."

   "How much more?"

   "Eh, a trillion?"

   "I guess I can't afford it."

   "Ask first, let's bargain!"

   "Okay, let's ask first."

  Then, Li Qing, who was about to leave the box, received a communication and message from the seller, stopped to read the message, and shook his head to respond:

   "Brother, how could I have so much money."

   "Does not count your interest and extend the repayment time."

   "Neither."

   Li Qing flatly refused.

The debt of two trillion stars is too much. Although I have confidence in my earning ability, two trillion is too much, which means that I will have to rush to pay back the money in the next few years, and I have no money left develop yourself.

  Although this thing is extremely rare, it is impossible for him to tie himself to it for the next few years.

  Besides, this thing is not an absolute necessity for him.

   Waiting for him to enlighten a super scientist with a bunch of golden mythological templates, he can condense the crystallization of technology and civilization from scratch. At most, it will be more difficult at the beginning, and it will only cost a few trillion more funds and a few years more time.

  Eleven vendors were stunned when they heard his resolute refusal. Eleven were speechless for a while, and someone said:

   "Come down a bit."

   "That's down to 200 billion?"

   "Drop more, 500 billion."

   "Then he still disagrees?"

   "Forget it."

   "Okay, I'll ask again."

  Turning back to contact Li Qing and said:

   "Brother, you only need to pay an additional 500 billion yuan, a total of 1.5 trillion star yuan plus the previous materials and eleven psyker awakening quotas to get this mother chip."

   Li Qing was silent.
