Chapter 399 The Value of Low-Level Civilization
Seeing Chen Jue lost in thought, Xi Luode, who was waiting on the side, responded quickly, and pulled out a list that had been screened by the spacecraft's intelligent center on the projected light screen: "Great Master!"
"This is the price list within the alliance. For civilizations like our home planet, you can refer to the table to sell resources in exchange for Spirit Mark Coins!"
Chen Jue glanced at the light screen projected in front of him. There were only a few items on the list of supplies, and the main targets were low-level civilizations like humans on Earth.
You read that right!
With the current technological level of the Earth, it is not even considered an elementary civilization.
It can only be regarded as a fledgling baby in the human alliance, getting rid of barbarism and starting to develop a certain level of technology.
What could such a low-level civilization have that would be of interest to the Alliance?
There are only a few answers:
"Various species bred on Earth: package price 100 Spiritual Mark Coins"
"Ten thousand living human slaves: price 1 Spirit Mark Coin each"
"Earth Culture Information: Package Price 10 Spiritual Mark Coins"
“…”
Looking at the list of low prices, Chen Jue was filled with emotion.
In front of a huge civilization union like the Alliance, the things developed on Earth have almost no particularly high value in Spirit Pattern Coins.
Rare animals like elephants and whales, which are not found on other planets, only cost 100 Spiritual Coins if you catch and pack up all of them.
After all, the human race covers countless intelligent galaxies, and the cosmic creatures that can be captured, whether tiny or large, are far more evolved than the creatures on Earth.
Even space behemoths like the Bixi are kept in captivity in the alliance. Under such circumstances, the biological resources on Earth are indeed not valuable.
As for those songs, novels, and cultural inventions, they seemed brilliant and glorious, but in front of the Alliance's super biological computer, they were nothing more than a few deductions and calculations to simulate the development process of a civilized planet.
Giving 10 Lingwen coins for the package price is already very considerate.
If there weren't some collectors in the alliance who liked to collect this kind of cultural materials, I would be grateful to be able to sell 10 Lingwen coins.
The most valuable of these are living human slaves, with 10,000 slaves priced at 1 Lingwen Coin in the market.
By selling all the humans on Earth, we could collect 800,000 Spiritual Coins.
This is why explorers like Shirod like to discover low-level civilizations like Earth in marginal galaxies.
Because once you occupy such a low-level civilization, it means the beginning of getting rich quickly.
Even if you don't become the lord of the galaxy yourself, selling the humans that reproduce there as slaves can still make a lot of money.
Of course, Chen Jue would definitely not be able to do such a cruel thing.
The humans on Earth are his compatriots and his mother tribe. Chen Jue is not capable of doing such a thing as selling those living humans as slaves for the time being.
I had no choice but to put the list aside and sit on the throne to think of ways to make money.
"Where can I get the money?"
"Become a space pirate and rob people everywhere?"
"Let's go catch some giant star beasts..."
Chen Jue turned his thoughts around, and finally looked at the flashing spiritual patterns in the exploration spacecraft. Suddenly, he had an idea and said, "Xilode, get the price of the spiritual weapons in the alliance!"
"Yes, great master!" Xirod knelt on the ground, and after a busy period, he listed another list on the light curtain.
From level 1 spiritual weapon to the highest level 9 spiritual weapon.
From spiritual weapons with combat functions to comprehensive spiritual weapons like spaceships.
There are as many types of spiritual tools with different uses and branches as the stars in the universe, and their prices show a J-shaped growth trend.
The construction cost and retail price of a level 7 exploration ship is roughly in the range of thousands of Lingwen coins.
Once it reaches level 8, the price of the spiritual weapon will begin to increase dramatically.
Taking the level 8 exploration ship as an example, the most basic bare ship without any weapons and equipment, the factory price can reach more than one million spirit coins.
Because ships of this level have shifted from traditional macroscopic spiritual patterns to microscopic spiritual patterns, they have body adjustment functions such as enlargement and reduction, as well as the ability to cruise at speeds infinitely close to 100% of the speed of light.
Compared with the thousand-yuan cost of a level 7 exploration ship, the gap between the two is a thousand times or even more than ten thousand times.
According to Xi Luode, the reason for such a large price gap is that every level 8 Spirit Pattern Enchantment in the alliance requires an level 8 Void Immortal to assist in the construction.
A level 8 Void Immortal can push a primary civilization into the top combat power of a mid-level civilization.
When such a character is brought out to enchant and refine equipment, the price will naturally rise steadily.
Moreover, the engraving of spiritual patterns, when reaching the 8th level microscopic level, will have effects beyond imagination, so that such 8th level spiritual tools are in great demand in the market.
Many level 8 Void Immortals don't even bother to create such spiritual weapons and sell them for the sake of spiritual pattern coins.
Firstly, one's own practice time is precious, and secondly, if one sells a powerful spiritual weapon, there is no guarantee that it will be turned against him someday.
If you are really short of money, you might as well explore more unexplored areas of the universe and get some merits or grab a few resource stars in exchange.
As soon as he heard this information, Chen Jue's mind started to become active.
"My current spiritual level has been raised to Lv8."
"Using this ability to create spiritual tools and sell them should be the fastest way to make money."
"25 million, that means I can earn it back by building 2 or 3 level 8 ships." Chen Jue sat on the throne and pondered for a moment, and he made up his mind.
But after checking the alliance's certification standards for level 8 ships on the light screen, Chen Jue's face became a little sighing again.
The level 8 weapon defense system already involves the basic ability of [Matter Interference], which can transform the input energy and materials into any powerful weapon similar to the positron cannon.
With one shot, not only can it penetrate the earth, it can even extinguish a star like the sun.
There is also a matching power output that must reach a cruising speed of 99.99% of the speed of light.
This is just the basic power requirement. Once the ship level is upgraded to level 9, it will even have to use a superluminal power system, so that it can quickly jump through the universe and galaxies and reach wherever it wants at any time.
Any one of these technical requirements would make aerospace scientists and engineers on Earth feel despair.
This is not a spaceship!
In the eyes of ordinary people, it is simply the configuration of a star-destroying fleet!
"Level 8 spacecraft is the entry-level standard for mid-level civilizations."
"I don't know if I can build one by combining the power of the entire earth and my abilities."
"If that doesn't work, you can just sell this monument of civilization."
"I have attached so many functional spiritual characters to this thing, it should be able to reach the level of an 8th-level spiritual weapon." Chen Jue muttered to himself, reached out to pick his ear and took out the hair-sized monument of civilization.
With the injection of energy, a long stick-shaped spiritual weapon expanded from small to large and appeared in front of everyone: "Xilode, take a look at how much this spiritual weapon is worth?"
Xi Luode stared at this abrupt long stick and the spiritual text values displayed on the side. He was completely stunned!
"Such a small stick actually weighs more than a million tons?"
"And this ability to shrink and enlarge... Master! In my opinion, this should be a comprehensive spiritual weapon, but its value is beyond my estimation. I must go to the Alliance Market and hand it over to a professional spiritual weapon appraiser for appraisal!"
As Xirode spoke, he pulled out a cosmic star map.
According to this star map, the area near the solar system is a no-man's land, with a large uninhabited area.
There is no civilization, no fleets, and no Alliance bases here.
If you want to sell spiritual tools in exchange for spiritual coins, you must go to the nearest alliance transit star, which is the Small Magellanic Cloud 160,000 light-years away.
"160,000 light years?"
"How did this exploration ship reach here at such a long distance with its speed?" Chen Jue asked with a frown.
Such a long and intense flight would take over 160,000 years to achieve, let alone fly with the physical body. Even if the spacecraft were to reach a speed close to the speed of light, it would take over 160,000 years.
With such a long time, it is estimated that the human beings on Earth would have committed self-destruction several times, so there is no way they could catch up with Chen Jue in running back and forth!
