11: Chapter 11 Half-Elves, Slaves of Civilization
Abyss Civilization!
One of the Federation's current main opponents, both belonging to the top tier of civilization sequences.
For a practitioner of the Divine Path, although this godhead is not as precious as a Divine Path godhead, it is still quite rare.
Not to mention, any godhead that is relatively well-preserved usually retains the origin of laws or even divinity.
"It seems to be very well-preserved." Chen Mo looked through the isolation barrier of the exhibition area, scrutinized it for a moment, and said softly.
"It has a 63.15% preservation rate and comes with an appraisal certificate." The female supervisor raised an eyebrow and said with a hint of pride.
For a True God, even if they truly cannot win, they will never let their opponent have an easy time before they die; burning their godhead or even self-detonating is a common occurrence.
Therefore, it is extremely difficult for a godhead to remain intact, let alone one with such a high preservation rate.
Of course, its price is destined to be an astronomical figure that Chen Mo and Bai Yuanyu cannot reach.
Xie Wei obviously knew this, so she didn't continue talking about it.
"Do you have any requirements, such as the type or abilities of the initial retinue?"
"Hmm..." Bai Yuanyu hesitated for a moment, then spoke up: "Do you have any humanoid alien races here?"
"Oh!" Xie Wei's eyes lit up slightly: "Customer, humanoid initial retinues are all hot commodities, this..."
"Don't worry, I'm not short on money." Bai Yuanyu replied without hesitation, making Chen Mo, who was standing to the side, want to slap him twice.
Although the reputation of Blue Cave Technology is very good, you don't have to act like such a fat sheep!
Moreover, Chen Mo really couldn't understand why Bai Yuanyu insisted on buying a humanoid retinue. Although there are good items in this category, because of their scarcity, there is usually a 10%--20% premium.
For Chen Mo, who pursues ultimate cost-effectiveness, this is completely idiotic behavior.
"Then that's no problem."
Xie Wei nodded her rounded chin and gestured to the salesperson standing at the counter in front.
The other party understood immediately, bent down, and took out an exquisite small crystal box from inside the counter.
The box was some kind of technological creation, and a Tier 2 divine power card was inserted on the top.
And as the attendant opened the box, hundreds of densely packed retinue cards immediately came into view.
"These are all humanoid initial retinue cards; you can choose for yourself, customer."
Blue Cave really is something!
Looking at the dazzling array of retinue cards in the box, Chen Mo couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
In his previous life, Blue Cave was considered one of the players' favorite factions. In addition to relatively generous mission rewards, the resources of Blue Cave itself were also the most complete among the factions that players could access.
Looking at it now, this advantage is quite obvious even now, three hundred years ago.
"So many?"
Bai Yuanyu was also slightly shocked, but more than that, he felt surprise and a kind of excitement that was hard to put into words.
And based on Chen Mo's understanding of this idiot, he had actually already foreseen what type of card he would choose.
"I want this one, this one, and this one..."
Bai Yuanyu pointed to the three retinue cards in the box that looked the closest to the humans of the Main World and spoke.
"Very well."
The attendant expressionlessly took the three retinue cards out of the box, but before they could be handed to Bai Yuanyu, Chen Mo interrupted.
"Just buy one."
Chen Mo glared at Bai Yuanyu, and the latter said somewhat aggrievedly: "Three cards isn't much, it's not like I don't have the money to buy other retinue cards."
"Did you forget what I told you before we came out? Every bit of resources must be spent where it counts." Chen Mo retorted unceremoniously.
Bai Yuanyu looked at the three retinue cards, hesitated for two seconds, and then put two of them back, leaving only the one that best met his requirements.
As for what the requirements were.
Pale skin, a slim waist, long legs, and a pair of pointed ears similar to an elf.
Chen Mo glanced at the introduction on the retinue card and discovered that this was not an artificially cultivated initial retinue, but a civilization slave captured from the extraterritorial battlefield.
"This kid, he picks the expensive ones to buy."
Cursing inwardly, Chen Mo looked at Xie Wei: "Have the three brainwashing sets been arranged?"
"Rest assured, products from Blue Cave are guaranteed to be high quality. Since they can be sold as initial retinues, they have naturally undergone strict processing and will definitely not have any memory residue, and besides..."
Xie Wei glanced at Bai Yuanyu: "Handsome, you have a good eye. Among the new arrivals, this card is definitely in the top ten. Take a look at the back of the card."
Bai Yuanyu suspiciously flipped the retinue card over, and a line of small text was clearly written on it.
[Low-grade Half-Elf, pure bloodline, offspring have a certain chance of manifesting special individuals with awakened bloodlines.]
"How about it? Not bad, right? Once the bloodline is awakened, they can at least grow to mid-tier or even high-tier. 200,000 credit points, this card is definitely worth more than the price."
Xie Wei was still touting it on the side, but didn't notice the disdain that flashed in Chen Mo's eyes.
"Talking about probability without talking about the result is just being a hooligan. Supervisor Xie, you are being a bit dishonest here."
Chen Mo's words made the smile on Xie Wei's face freeze slightly, and she squinted at Chen Mo, who was clearly trying to drive the price down.
"Ordinary initial retinue cards are around 50,000. It's really not expensive to buy this kind of retinue with great upward potential for 200,000. Look, this young brother likes it himself, doesn't he?"
Xie Wei looked at Bai Yuanyu, who was clutching the retinue card tightly, her eyes full of confidence.
"Xiao Yu, put the card down. Let's go to Black Gold Technology next door and take a look; maybe it will be cheaper."
Chen Mo said without hesitation, and to Xie Wei's surprise, Bai Yuanyu really put down the retinue card, although he was clearly very reluctant.
"Wait, 170,000. It can't go any lower."
Xie Wei gritted her teeth and looked at Chen Mo, finally offering a 'favorable' price that was relatively less exploitative.
"No, it can go lower." Chen Mo turned his head and looked at Xie Wei with a beaming smile.
In his previous life, as a player, he had dealt with these profiteers many times, and even because of long-term employment, he even knew the profit margins of certain products within Blue Cave.
"135,000. If you sell it, you sell it. If not, we're leaving now."
This kid...
Xie Wei looked at Chen Mo somewhat strangely; the price the other party offered was already very close to her bottom line.
And what she didn't know was that Chen Mo had actually already guessed the bottom line, but still showed mercy and gave a little leeway.
After all, compared to Black Gold Technology next door, Blue Cave is more trustworthy in terms of both reputation and product quality.
