Witch Special

Chapter 279 Star Gate: I vomited

In the end, Lin Zhenxi successfully exchanged the rectangular core dug out from the broken power ball for 88,000 contribution points.

Of course, she knew that the goblin would make a profit at this price. It was impossible for a goblin to do business at a loss. Even if it looked like its entire family had died, Lin Zhenxi would not feel the slightest bit of guilt.

This price had already exceeded Lin Zhenxi's expectations. After all, while this item was indeed valuable, it was just a piece of junk in Lin Zhenxi's hands, so she might as well sell it. She didn't even know how to move the magic tower from her mindscape, so she didn't even think about space travel.

The reason why Lin Zhenxi was able to control this goblin so well was because she believed that it was impossible for it to be the only salesperson in the acquisition center.

However, judging by the deserted atmosphere at the acquisition center, it wasn't hard to guess that the salespeople there were doing quite poorly. Now that a deal had finally come through, the one eager to close it should be the goblin across the street, not Lin Zhenxi.

This is a complete seller's market. Lin Zhenxi can sell or not, but the goblin urgently needs to complete this transaction to open his business. His price-cutting behavior is completely his subconscious habit, but when Lin Zhenxi really planned to leave, the goblin couldn't help but panic.

Then he was controlled by Lin Zhenxi.

Of course, it's also possible that this goblin's acting skills are truly superb, and even in this situation, it was able to undercut Hayashi Maki. But as mentioned earlier, this deal was a pure profit for Hayashi Maki. She traded a useless scrap for a huge amount of Contribution Points. Regardless of the low price, Hayashi Maki didn't lose anything.

Moreover, 88,000 contribution points was already more than Lin Zhenxi had earned in the past ten years combined. Lin Zhenxi didn't feel like he was being taken advantage of. Even if he was truly being cheated out of something by this goblin, it was still within Lin Zhenxi's acceptable range.

In general, everyone made money and it was a successful transaction.

The transaction was completed, and the goblin called on the intelligent robot to tow away the rectangular block that was split into two halves. While waiting for the robot tow truck to come, Lin Zhenxi also asked a question that she had been concerned about for a long time but had never found the right person to ask.

"What on earth are you buying all this stuff for? The 'company' doesn't need it, does it?"

As for giving it to the human society outside, that is even more of a false proposition. Even if the civilization of the main world is developing rapidly now, it is only about 30 to 40 years more advanced than it was ten years ago.

Intelligent robots have made great progress, hovercraft has made great progress, and energy systems have made great progress. But that's all we can do. Anyway, controlled nuclear fusion technology is still 40 years away, and we still lack the final step.

No matter how you think about it, a world like this wouldn't need a warp drive, something only used for space travel. Lin Zhenxi doubted that even if he brought back a perfectly intact power sphere, the scientists in the main world wouldn't be able to fully understand its technology.

After all, the main world still adheres to the laws of nature, and research is done step by step. Unlike the previous world, where unknown scientists often master some black technology and suddenly make big news.

Lin Zhenxi always felt that the scientists in the previous world were not normal. Their scientific research results were jumpy, as if some higher-dimensional existence had stuffed the knowledge directly into their heads.

This is both magical and dangerous. After all, when someone inexplicably comes up with completely unreasonable high technology and then shatters other people's common sense, scattering it all over the place, no one can stand it.

It means that a test tube of glowing, no-name medicine can turn his skinny brother who has a dream of fitness into a giant several kilometers tall.

There aren't so many weird geeks in the main world. Everyone does research step by step, adhering to a basic law, climbing the technology tree little by little, without any big leaps forward.

But because of this, many of the technologies and magic brought back from other worlds, disconnected from the main world, are actually of no use to the people of the main world. Since no one has any use for them, they are useless waste and garbage. However, even so, the "company" is willing to pay a price to buy them.

What's the purpose? Could it be that they're just trying to help the commissioners who chose storage space as their initial weapon?

Perhaps because he finally opened the shop and completed a successful transaction, the goblin was in a very happy mood, so he casually told Lin Zhenxi the secret that he should not have told anyone.

"Yes, it is. They are indeed useless now. But the 'company' also has its own scientific research team and will launch them to the world at the appropriate time."

"Only in this way can the world develop according to the plan of the 'company'... Oh, what did I say, forget it, forget it, you didn't hear anything just now!" The goblin said halfway, realizing that he had said too much, so he began to pull his ears and slap his nose frantically.

Its ears and nose are so long, maybe it made them by itself.

Is this still a goblin? Is it a house-elf? Lin Zhenxi looked at the goblin who was starting to go crazy again and quietly distanced himself from it again.

However, the little information revealed by the goblin is quite interesting. The "company" is quietly guiding the development of technology in the main world.

Isn't this natural? Otherwise, why is New Blue City called the city of the future? Isn't it because the "company" is here?

The "company" is here, and those aliens are also settled here, so this place becomes the place where the civilizations of the alien world and the main world are most integrated and conflicting, and civilization also progresses because of this.

However, Lin Zhenxi still had a question. Since the "Company" had everything, even if it wanted to guide the development of the Main World civilization, it shouldn't need to buy the Special Envoy's possessions, right? Couldn't they just take out the ready-made items, or even blueprints? After all, the junk in the Special Envoy's hands probably wasn't very important.

"Stop acting. I won't complain to the 'company' about your nonsense, but you have to answer an extra question." Lin Zhenxi interrupted the goblin's hypocritical self-punishment and raised his own question.

This question didn't seem as sensitive as the previous one. Di Jing's expression calmed down a bit, and he got up from the ground. He coughed twice through his mouth and explained, "Because the 'Company' is an outsider to this world, it can't excessively interfere with the progress of civilization, especially not by simply bringing something out of thin air without any reason."

"But ma'am, you are different. You belong to this world and have a close connection with it. Therefore, what you bring out can be accepted and embraced by this world."

So this is why the things exchanged from the "company" cannot be used in this world? Lin Zhenxi pondered, feeling that he had obtained some useless information again.

But those aliens are not from this world. Why can they use the technology of their own world to promote the development of the host world?

Why can those aliens be accepted by the main world, but the "company" cannot?

Could it be that those aliens themselves have a certain connection with the main world, while the "company" has no connection at all?

Well, there's no point in thinking about that. My brain is going to explode.

Lin Zhenxi threw these wild thoughts out of his head, took a last look at the goblin who was still standing there with a flattering smile on his face, then turned and left the acquisition center.

In fact, she could still come up with a lot of interesting things, and I believe she could exchange them for a lot of contribution points. But those were all prepared by Lin Zhenxi for herself, and she still had some use for them. The only thing that was truly garbage, worthless except for selling it, was this power ball core.

Selling scrap to a recycling station and leaving with a little money, isn't this what you older kids used to do when you were little?

It refers to stealing copper and iron from construction sites and selling them to junk collectors, and then using the few dollars to go to the Internet cafe.

The acquisition center's offer was quite generous. Now that Lin Zhenxi had a space storage item, it seemed he could also start a business as a space-time dealer. Subtly influencing the development of civilization in the main world—wouldn't that be incredibly interesting?

What kind of trash should I throw at the recycling center next time?

Lin Zhenxi stepped through the portal of the acquisition center and immediately arrived at the teleportation hall of the "company". Now that the decision has been made, there is no time to delay. Lin Zhenxi has already made up her mind to go to the Garden of Death, so what are you waiting for? Let's go now!

It was a good opportunity for her to go and see what the "Fantasy War" was all about. It was actually worth the Garden of the Dead sending her a special invitation. It must be an amazing event.

However, when Lin Zhenxi came to the teleportation hall, opened the door, leaned against the wall, took out his personal terminal to study how to use the electronic invitation letter, the star gate opposite the hall suddenly opened slowly by itself, revealing the slowly rotating starry sky inside.

There was no one in front of the star gate. To be precise, Lin Zhenxi was the only one in the entire teleportation hall. So it was obvious that the star gate was activated this time because someone was returning from another world.

No way, such good luck? Lin Zhenxi suddenly became excited.

She had used this Star Gate many times herself, but the only time she had seen anyone else use it was once, organized by the "Company." That time, a group of special envoys had collectively traveled through the Star Gate to another world. Seeing others return through the Star Gate was a rare sight now, and Lin Zhenxi's timing was truly perfect.

Under Lin Zhenxi's curious gaze, a large number of white particles gushed out from the star gate. After these light particles left the star gate, they gathered together and formed several human-like shapes.

The white light covering the surface faded, revealing the appearance of the person inside.

Uh... these people are all as black as charcoal. Apart from being able to tell that they are human beings, there is absolutely no information that can provide any identification.

Moreover, they all seemed to be unconscious. After the white light on their bodies completely faded, these carbon black men fell all over the platform in front of the star gate, with no intention of getting up on their own.

Ah, are all the people coming out of the star gate so embarrassed? It seems not, right?

I received news that I will go to Suzhou on a business trip next week.

But the train to Suzhou takes more than ten to nearly twenty hours.

I vomited my soul and suddenly didn’t want to go.
