431: Cross Star Black Market! Applying for Black Market Alchemist position!

Su Lie looked at the prompt before him and responded without hesitation, "Yes!"

Buzz!

The next second.

The light and shadows before him dissipated.

Su Lie appeared in an independent room.

The room was as bright as day, with golden wallpaper on the walls and a floor made of legendary quality Stone that emitted a golden glow.

There was no furniture in the room.

A reception array was carved into the ground beneath Su Lie's feet.

At this moment.

[Buzz!]

A ripple of energy emanated from the air in front of Su Lie.

He looked up.

Only to see a virtual holographic screen appear before his eyes.

Immediately after, a sweet, clear female voice sounded in the room.

"Welcome to the Cross Star Black Market!"

"This is the Cross Star Black Market's special reception room for new members!"

"You will familiarize yourself with the Cross Star Black Market and its relevant information here!"

"Once you understand this basic information!"

"You may open the door and leave the room!"

"In the next room, you will undergo identity verification and asset validation as a new member, and you can exchange for the Cross Star Black Market's exclusive currency, or commission auctions, or apply to join the Cross Star Black Market as a Black Market employee!"

...After the female voice cheerfully finished.

A map appeared in Su Lie's vision.

The map was rectangular, approximately 100 kilometers wide and 1000 kilometers long.

This map was divided into three zones.

Starting from the left, the area before the 10-kilometer side length zone was the Cross Star Black Market's Trade Zone.

This included the Arrival Plaza, Auction House, and Customer Service Center.

The middle zone, from the 10-kilometer side length area to the 100-kilometer length area, was where the Cross Star Black Market's Headquarters was located.

The Headquarters was divided into three parts: the Headquarters Building, Employee Residential Area, and Resource Warehouse.

The area from 100 kilometers to 1000 kilometers at the back.

Was the Cross Star Black Market's Planting Area.

The entire Black Market was rectangular, covered by 100 sets of overlapping defensive arrays.

Outside was the endless dimensional void.

Guests could only stay in the Trade Zone to participate in auctions, exchanges, and recruitment activities, according to the rules of the Black Market.

Employees could enter the second Headquarters Zone.

The third Planting Area was only accessible to members of the Cross Star Council at the Headquarters.

There was also various information on one side of the map.

After Su Lie reviewed them one by one.

He then closed the prompt and opened the door to the next room.

This was a room of about 50 square meters.

The room contained only an office desk and a chubby attendant wearing a black suit and gold-rimmed glasses.

Upon seeing Su Lie, she smiled and stood up, first bowing, then saying, "Welcome! I am your exclusive attendant, Qing Qing! Please place your left hand on this mist rule Identification array!"

"This array is connected to the mist rule and will read your identity and verify whether your assets meet the entry qualifications for the Cross Star Black Market!"

"At the same time, you will also sign a confidentiality Contract Book and a safety Contract Book during this process!"

"Among them..."

Qing Qing began to explain the requirements of the confidentiality Contract Book and the safety Contract Book.

The confidentiality Contract Book required Su Lie to keep secret everything he saw and heard in the Cross Star Black Market, and not to disclose it to anyone who was not a Guest of the Cross Star Black Market.

The safety Contract Book required Su Lie not to use force in the Cross Star Black Market, not to rob, kill, etc., in the Black Market.

After listening, Su Lie placed his hand on the mist rule Identification array at the corner of the table as requested.

Buzz!

The next second, Su Lie's information materialized on a document.

This document displayed Su Lie's name, identity, professional class, level, and whether he met the Black Market entry requirements.

At the same time, Su Lie also saw the rule prompts for completing the confidentiality Contract Book and the safety Contract Book.

After Qing Qing reviewed Su Lie's basic information, she stamped a magic seal on the information.

Buzz!

After the magic seal took effect, Su Lie's information transformed into three rays of light.

Two of them disappeared into thin air, and one was imprinted on the Cross Star Black Market coordinate token Su Lie held in his hand.

Qing Qing then asked, "Would you like to exchange for Purity pills or rationality pills? Each Purity pill costs 100 million Mist Points, and each rationality pill costs 1 billion Mist Points! You can also use Survivor Guild contribution points..."

"I'll exchange for 1 Purity pill! 1 million rationality pills! Exchange with Mist Points!"

Su Lie interrupted the attendant directly: "Also, I want to entrust the Black Market to help auction 1 Level 6 god-tier dragon shadow pill, 1 bloodline expansion potion of the Kun Clan, and 1 bloodline expansion potion of the Dragon King bloodline!"

As he spoke.

He took out one pill and two bloodline expansion potions.

Qing Qing's eyes lit up upon seeing this, and she quickly said, "Please wait a moment, the resources need to go directly through the array to the mist rule, and the mist rule will determine the authenticity and value of the resources!"

As she spoke, she placed the resources Su Lie had taken out onto the array at another corner of the table, in front of Su Lie.

Qing Qing then looked at Su Lie: "Let's proceed with exchanging the Purity pills and rationality pills first! The total charge will be 1,000 trillion and 100 million Mist Points! You just need to confirm the transaction prompt sent by the mist rule!"

She quickly helped Su Lie complete the purchase of the two types of pills.

Soon.

Su Lie saw the prompt from the mist rule.

He chose to confirm without hesitation.

The next second, his Mist Points became 38,901 trillion 275 billion 296 million 120 thousand and 70 points.

Qing Qing handed two gourd-shaped medicine bottles to Su Lie: "Guest! These are temporary storage items specially made by our Black Market, usable for 12 hours! Please store the resources inside into normal storage equipment within 12 hours, to avoid the destruction of the resources when the temporary storage item disappears!"

"If such an accident occurs, our Black Market will not be responsible for any after-sales service!"

Su Lie nodded. He glanced at the resources that had not yet completed detection, then took out a Purity pill and examined it carefully.

In a blink of an eye, a panel popped up.

[Purity Pill: Red God-level Quality;

Increases 1 Purity value after use.

Note: This pill can only be consumed by Survivors of Second Turn and above, or life forms of equivalent rank.

Note: This pill can be used continuously.

Note: This pill is exclusive to the Cross Star Black Market.]

"Good heavens! A monopolized item! There's no way to refine it extra!"

Su Lie sighed secretly at this.

He then took out a rationality pill for Identification.

[rationality pill: Red God-level Quality;

Increases 1 rationality value after use.

Note: This pill can only be consumed by Survivors of Second Turn and above, or life forms of equivalent rank.

Note: This pill can be used continuously.

Note: This pill is exclusive to the Cross Star Black Market.]

The information for both pills was basically the same.

At this moment.

A light shone on the table array next to Qing Qing.

Seeing this, Qing Qing enthusiastically said to Su Lie, "Guest, the Identification results and relevant information have been materialized on these three lists. Please confirm and sign your name!"

"Also, a reminder, these are three resource certification lists, and also three Contract Books! Once signed, it means you have agreed that these three resources will be auctioned in the Black Market's auction house tonight!"

"Consignment auctions do not require advance fees. We will charge you 1% of the total auction price as a handling fee, and 2% as a consignment fee!"

As she spoke.

She placed the three resources and three resource certification forms in front of Su Lie.

After Su Lie carefully reviewed and confirmed everything was correct, he then signed the name Liu Xiu.

Buzz!

Soon, the resource certification form lit up with a glow.

Su Lie received the rule prompt that the Contract Book had been successfully signed.

After completing these matters.

Su Lie then asked Qing Qing, "Between you and the mist rule..."

"Guest! This is a Contract Book signed between members of our council and the mist rule through the Survivor Guild. We need to submit 20% of the total annual transaction amount as service fees to the mist rule every year!"

Qing Qing knew what Su Lie was going to ask and quickly answered the question.

Su Lie was slightly dumbfounded after hearing this.

This charging method seemed unstable, but in reality, it was a huge profit.

It was even more expensive than the highest fixed fee!

Su Lie then asked, "Can you also apply for jobs here?"

"Yes, Guest! We are currently mainly recruiting Refiners, and also combat and support members for exploration and pioneering teams! Your profession is suitable for a Refiner! If you wish to apply, you will need to undergo an assessment!"

Qing Qing looked at Su Lie in surprise and politely responded, "Upon successful application, you will gain access to the Headquarters! In the Headquarters, you can purchase resources from the Black Market's material warehouse through the employee channel!"

"At the same time, if you wish to participate in the nightly auctions, you will also receive an 80% discount and VIP treatment in a private room!"

"You don't need to come to the Black Market every day. As long as you complete the daily refining tasks required by the Black Market, you can receive a daily salary of 100 rationality pills, and the refining items that are allowed to be kept from the refining tasks! If you don't need the items, you can also exchange them for rationality pills or Purity pills!"

"Internal members of the Black Market can also hire the Black Market's security team to provide you with security services!"

"Of course, you can exchange for higher positions by accumulating contribution points!"

...She said a lot.

Seeing that there was still plenty of time before the auction began, Su Lie immediately had the idea of applying: "Okay! Please help me apply! I also want to go to the auction later to see what it's like!"

Before entering here, Su Lie had imagined the Black Market here to be a very old and dilapidated trading method.

What he didn't expect was.

All the procedures and transactions here were so fast and convenient.

There was also a familiar feeling here.

Qing Qing nodded: "May I ask if your Treasure Refining speed is fast? If it's time-consuming, we can do it after the auction. I will specifically handle this for you, and you will also be delayed in being teleported away!"

"Fast!"

Su Lie responded solemnly.

Only then did Qing Qing take out an application Contract Book from the drawer. As she handed it to Su Lie, she pressed a button on the table.

Buzz!

At this moment, a light door automatically opened in the wall behind Qing Qing.

Su Lie glanced at the light door, then looked at the Contract Book.

This Contract Book required Su Lie to refine one god-level item, or one god-level item, or one god-level weapon, or one set of god-level armor.

It must be refined according to the blueprints provided by the Black Market, and not arbitrarily refined.

Both materials and blueprints were provided by the Black Market.

If Su Lie passed the recruitment assessment, the treasure refined this time would be counted as Su Lie's contribution to the Black Market.

If Su Lie did not pass the recruitment assessment, he would need to pay a total of 100,000 rationality pills for material costs and one-time blueprint fees.

Moreover, the Black Market also required that if the blueprint was permanently recorded by the Refiner, then regardless of whether the Refiner succeeded in the recruitment or not, any items refined thereafter must be sold to the Black Market and not to any other forces besides the Cross Star Black Market.

Otherwise, they would suffer punishment from the mist rule, permanently forgetting the blueprint, and also deducting thousands of years of Lifespan, among a series of severe penalties.

Su Lie briefly glanced at the Contract Book and directly signed his name: "I'll refine pills!"

After Qing Qing received the Contract Book, she took out a small temporary storage gourd containing material blueprints from the drawer.

She said solemnly, "Guest! If you need a refining furnace, our Black Market can provide you with five types of refining furnaces: normal, fine, rare, epic, and legendary. Each type of refining furnace is further divided into 108 elemental attributes such as gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, rain, electricity, darkness, light, sacred, life and death, as well as 3 types of chaos refining furnaces!"

"Each use of these refining furnaces requires different amounts of monster crystals, which you need to pay for yourself!"

...After listening to Qing Qing's introduction.

Su Lie directly shook his head: "I can refine it here!"

Qing Qing was stunned, then smiled and took out a meditation cushion from her storage equipment: "Please!"

"No! I'll stand!"

Su Lie shook his head.

He took out the blueprint and identified it.

[Fertilizer Pill Manufacturing Blueprint: Red God-level Quality, fertilizer-type pill.

Method of Use: Soak in 10 tons of water. Once the pill dissolves, the water turns yellow and emits a faint scent of fresh grass, it can be poured onto farmland.

Note: This fertilizer pill can also kill insects in the soil.

Note: This fertilizer pill is only suitable for advanced Mist plants (crops and plant resources required by Survivors of Second Turn and above).

"Uh... alright!"

Su Lie paused, then summoned the materials one by one...
