A few days later.
Lu Chen, Gloria and Ai Li had just come out of the bath.
After completely digesting the dragon spirit, the three people's cultivation reached a new level again.
This time, Lu Chen and Ai Li had a clear connection and reached the same level of 101.
Gloria, the professional branch-squeezing girl, took the initiative after Ai Li lost control and squeezed Lu Chen so hard that her cultivation reached two levels in a row, reaching level 110!
Pushing Lu Chen and Ai Li away from each other.
Gloria finally regained her long-lost combat advantage.
He had not yet put on his clothes, so he stood up from the water holding his waist, tilted his head and drank a lot of wine. He was half-drunk, swaying, and gave orders to Lu Chen and the other two:
"Haha, this level of cultivation makes sense... From now on, we are not of the same class. When you see me from now on, you'd better call me "sir", use honorifics, and salute every day."
"good!"
Lu Chen immediately gave Gloria a military salute... and then gave her away.
In this way, Lu Chen rested for three days before getting out of the bath.
Gloria and Ellie had already gotten up and were jumping around.
Three days later.
Lu Chen walked out of the bamboo forest wearing a green robe, came to the lakeside in the morning mist, and stretched.
Mrs. August is reading in the morning by the lake, drinking tea and meditating.
Every time Lu Chen saw her, he felt younger, as if he was playing a reverse development game.
If this continues, will Madam turn into a girl?
Lu Chen suddenly felt that this incident was a bit irritating.
He came to the lake and stood with his hands behind his back, as imposing as a great scholar.
"How about it, can I absorb the dragon spirit?"
Mrs. August put down her book, took a sip of cold tea, and said:
"When taking a double or triple break with Gloria and Ellie, you should pay attention to the circulation and balance of spiritual energy. Don't focus on winning or losing, fighting spirit, or pursuing too novel postures... In these days, you and Ellie could have improved more. realm.”
What is an overly novel posture?
Lu Chen felt that he was a very traditional man.
Of course, once he lost control, he couldn't help it.
"How about having some fun with Madam?"
Lu Chen said with a smile.
Mrs. August turned her head and glanced at him quietly, sighing slightly angrily.
"If you were less interested in having fun, I would already have reached level 100 cultivation."
Lu Chen's tone was choked and he said quickly:
"I have contributed so much, so I have to make some compensation."
Mrs. August smiled and shook her head.
"Judging from your training this time, I still underestimated Gloria. With her by your side, maybe you don't need the White Demon Core to swallow the Dragon Ball. However, for the sake of safety, it is recommended to collect a White Demon Core."
"Okay, let's go out to sea and try to find one back."
After saying that, Lu Chen summoned Gloria and Ai Li and prepared to go to sea immediately.
Gloria played the game for two days and was so sleepy that her eyes were dull, she was in a daze, and she was yawning all the time.
"You made 20 million. If you don't upgrade your equipment, just give us some more change!"
In fact, Lu Chen asked about the price of the equipment.
With his twenty million spirit stones, he could only customize two brand-new adventure ships of level 120.
Not worth it.
After all, Lu Chen is now a level 100 expert, and his real combat power is around level 130. Level 120 adventure ships or combat armors can no longer keep up with his combat power.
It would require an adventure ship of around level 150, or combat armor of the same level, to achieve a qualitative improvement.
The cost of a level 150 adventure ship is 100 million, and the combat armor is 50 million, so it is better to collect more money.
"You'd better spend all the money you had before."
Only then did Gloria realize that her pocket money had not been spent yet.
I bought so many clothes and games, but I haven’t spent them all yet!
"Damn Bai Luhao, why are things so cheap? If I can't spend the money anymore, I'll have to support the pretty boy."
Lu Chen shrugged.
"Aren't you murdering a pretty boy?"
Indeed, how many people in this universe can withstand Gloria's blood demon flames?
What's more, Gloria has a mother and a deity, and they have to nod at the same time to have physical contact with them. Apart from him, only a certain Dragon Supreme can do that.
"Let's go out again, collect more money, and buy a better ship or armor."
Lu Chen didn't plan to rest anymore and set sail immediately.
But the overseas destination has not yet been determined.
Gloria suggested:
"If you want to find the White Demon Core, go to the Demon Realm!"
Lu Chen asked her:
"Do you have any memories of the Abyss Demon Realm?"
"No."
"It's still too dangerous. We can't even find where the demon world is?"
Ai Li suddenly had an idea and suggested:
"Captain, why don't you ask Jiang Xiaobai for help?"
"Jiang Xiaobai help me eliminate the dragon spirit?"
Lu Chen trembled all over.
Although his apricot fetishes are diverse, they are limited to female humans or humanoids, so men should forget about them.
Ellie smiled and said:
"What are you thinking, captain? I mean, let Jiang Xiaobai lead us to the devil world."
Lu Chen said helplessly:
"Then we have to find him. Speaking of which, I don't even have Gordo's contact information."
Gloria rolled her eyes at him.
"You only remember a certain scorpion woman's phone number."
Lu Chen explained:
"That's her editorial email."
At this time, Mrs. August, who had been silent, suddenly spoke:
"Where is your master?"
Lu Chen frowned, feeling that the lady was deliberately testing him.
"That woman seems to be specifically collecting white demons, but she is too dangerous and it is difficult for me to find her."
Mrs. August asked with a gentle smile:
"Is it because she can't be found, or is it too dangerous, or... you don't want to find her?"
"In no mood!"
Lu Chen said firmly.
Gloria shook her head helplessly.
"How are you going to find the white demon core without going to the demon world and without Jiang Xiaobai's help?"
"It's better to ask for help online first to see if you can buy the White Demon Core directly or find any relevant clues."
So, Lu Chen spent a whole day searching for news about the White Demon throughout the Blizzard Route.
White Demons are rare in number, and the probability of appearing in the Blizzard Route is extremely low. Even in the abyss, White Demons are not fixed in one place. It is too difficult to find living White Demons.
But if you don’t pursue freshness, White Demon Core can still be purchased.
For example, some retired veterans of the empire hunted the White Demon Core in the Battle of Ming Ming and have kept it to this day. Unfortunately, they were charged sky-high prices.
For example, in the Abyss Passage, a large adventure group recently captured living white demons for research. After the experiment, they left the magic cores and put them up for sale. Unfortunately, I didn't see any below level 100, and the price was not below 100 million.
I looked around and couldn't find one that suited me.
Instead, Gloria unexpectedly found a seller who claimed to have a white demon core in a nearby advertisement.
This mysterious merchant claims to own various items on the empire's prohibited trade list, including magic cores, neural network servers, and interstellar insect descendants.
The merchant has a mysterious identity and is located in a tourist attraction called [Wonderland] in the middle of the Blizzard Route.
This scenic spot is about seven or eight days' voyage from the Bailu's current location.
Lu Chen decided immediately:
"Okay, let's go to Wonderland. I'm a little tired recently, so it would be nice to take a trip."
Mrs. August on the side suddenly frowned slightly.
"Wonderland... I think I've been there. It's the property of one of the top ten families in the empire. Don't go too far."
Lu Chen suddenly felt energetic.
"This is a good thing. It means there may really be a White Demon Core, as long as it's not the Endo family."
Mrs. August shook her head.
"That's not true. However, considering that you have had contact with Princess Yinlan, major families may not welcome you."
"It doesn't matter...I've always been a model tourist."
…
Take a short break.
Replenish fuel, fresh water and food.
The next day, Lu Chen and the other three set sail again.
This time, in order to speed up the voyage, the Leonin spent half a day taking a detour to the nearest interstellar station in the Uncrowned Country, Jiangyan Station.
Arriving at the inn, Lu Chen disembarked and showed off his idealist medal. He was a newly promoted member of Three Thousand Stars, which attracted a group of staff members to come and take a group photo.
After playing at the station for several hours, Lu Chen finally heard the misty whistle of the interstellar train entering the station.
Lu Chen spent the half-price bus fare of 5,000 spirit stones to board the 200-level interstellar express train, Blizzard No. 3, and had a carriage to himself.
The interstellar train passed through staged warp speed flight, and it only took a day and a half to cover the distance that the Leonin would have needed to fly in seven or eight days.
After arriving at the destination station, the Leonin disembarked and flew sideways for a day toward the edge of the blizzard route.
In a total of two and a half days, the Leonin successfully arrived at the destination of this adventure——
Wonderland.
During the time on the road, Lu Chen read the scenic spot introduction of Wonder Park online in advance.
The wonder park is a series of cosmic wonders artificially packed into the same nebula for tourists to watch and play.
For example, you can experience supernova explosions, black holes swallowing stars, planetary birth, three-body hell, Galactus, living planets, rogue planets, Ghostface Nebula, gravity slingshot sailing competition, wingsuit flying on the edge of a black hole...
Moreover, it is not a computer simulation, nor is it a miniature version of the recurring spectacle, but a real cosmic phenomenon driven by humans.
For example, when a supernova explodes, I will show you a star explosion. Usually one star will explode every week. Many photographers and tourists like to experience this kind of dying star's doomsday at close range.
After a while.
The Leonin approached a bright Ribbon Nebula, which was colorful and dazzling, like a sky-wide ribbon hidden in the blizzard and darkness.
Wonderland is divided into entrance and exit.
Just like the scenic spots in Lu Chen's previous life, they all provide linear one-stop services. They try their best to make you spend money to enjoy each project. Some projects are like single-plank bridges. You can't get through it without playing.
In his previous life, Lu Chen was forced to play on a high-altitude glass suspension bridge because he didn't want to take the bumpy road back. It was swaying in the wind and had special effects of shattering.
He crawled all the way through, leaving an indelible psychological shadow. Even after traveling for three years, he still occasionally dreams...
This fear stems not only from the fear of heights, but also from the news that he often sees accidents caused by the disrepair of facilities in scenic spots.
This time, even if he had an escape guide, he didn't want to experience something too prickly.
My heart can't stand it.
So, he sent an email in advance to communicate with the mysterious seller who lived in the scenic area, such as the grade and price of the white devil, how to meet and trade, etc.
If possible, he would like to invite the other party to leave the scenic area to trade, or after entering the scenic area, go directly to the place where the other party lives.
The other party quickly replied by email, saying that there were several white magic cores, ranging from level 60 to 130, and the prices were not high, all under 100 million.
However, the White Demon Core is a first-level prohibited item controlled by the empire and cannot be sold to the weak. Only those who can pass the highest difficulty level of all game items are eligible to purchase it.
Lu Chen was also a little confused.
Generally speaking, merchants increase prices and simplify purchase conditions.
Why does this mysterious businessman do the opposite and set prices very low, but needs to play through the highest difficulty level to make purchases.
Gloria sat on Lu Chen's shoulder and drank. While reading the content of the email, she casually guessed:
"I guess they just want us to spend money to buy a pass and play every event. We will definitely not succeed in the end. As for the White Demon core, there is probably no one at all... Except for the bosses of the imperial military, who would have several White Demon cores?" Demon core.”
Lu Chen frowned and turned to look at this stupid woman with a drunken face. Unexpectedly, she became smarter.
"Are you... enlightened by me?"
Gloria curled her lips and said shamelessly:
"Ha, if you have been deceived many times, you will naturally understand."
"..."
As expected of you!
Lu Chen had nothing to say.
The Leonin arrived at the entrance to the wonderland, parked in front of an artificial planet extending outside the nebula, and received a registration review and ticket purchase port.
Lu Chen truthfully filled in his identity and spaceship name, and spent 888,000 spirit stones to purchase an all-inclusive pass to experience all the attractions.
The price of a single ticket is only 10,000 spirit stones.
The price of such a pass is really a bit outrageous.
However, when the Leonin entered the interior of the nebula, it found that there were quite a few cruise ships!
Most tourists come from the empire side, live broadcast ships, cruise ships, many tourists are civilians.
This is also understandable. The more common people are, the more they like this kind of stimulation.
On the contrary, adventurers on the Pangu Route have seen quite a lot of such wonders.
It can be seen that although there are still people in the fringe areas of the empire who are starving to death, the number of wealthy people cannot be underestimated.
In addition to the rich tourists on the empire side, Lu Chen also saw a lot of adventure ships.
Lu Chen guessed that these adventurers might also want to buy forbidden items from the mysterious merchant.
With so many adventurous ships coming, if it turns out that the so-called mysterious businessman is just a tour guide making false sales, the entire Nebula will probably be turned upside down.
The premise is that someone must be able to pass each project with the highest difficulty and prove this in the end.
"I'm afraid that the park will maliciously increase the difficulty of passing."
Ellie said worriedly.
Gloria didn't care and said proudly:
"It doesn't matter. If we fail and don't see anyone else passing the level, we will tear down the entire park."
Lu Chen had a vague feeling that this shopping might not be too pleasant.
Judging from the radar response of the ship, most of the adventure ships near the Leonin are ships of level 100 or above.
The Leonin, which has been modified to level 80, is almost the lowest-grade spaceship in the park.
Lu Chen thought it was nothing before.
But after being promoted to Three Thousand Star Evil, I felt a bit embarrassed.
However, the nearby adventure ships were extremely respectful to him and moved out of the way. Some even took the initiative to show their kindness.
It was as if he deliberately sailed a broken ship, hid his strength, and pretended to be a pig to eat the tiger.
