Global Era of Star trekking

This was far from the end. That First Rank Alien Race member was like a stone breaking the calm surface of a lake, quickly rippling across the entire surface.

"I have an Orange Quality ’Short-Range Teleportation Stone’ here. Once activated, it can teleport oneself up to a light-year away."

"A damaged ’Earth Attribute Law Crystal’ that can temporarily enter a state of being imbued with Fourth Rank demi-god Law Powers, possessing the strength of the Fourth Rank."

...

The most surprised by this succession of bid calls in the venue were none other than the two individuals.

Besides Elon, who was personally involved, it was Song Chi, the Ruins Market Master.

Although he had guessed that those Alien Species who had left for a trip would bring back quite a few good items, the appearance of several Orange Glory Quality Strange Objects in succession still meant something to him.

It wasn’t so much about competitive pressure; it was more about the realization that his current fortune was still too meager.

Why were all these Orange Oddities bouncing out at this moment? Why had they never appeared before?

The reason was that his ’Oddity Exchange Shop’ in the Ruins Market had too few oddities to arouse the interest of those Alien Races, or rather, that the quality of those oddities was not high enough to attract the attention of those high-ranking beings behind the Alien Races.

After all, there was only one Orange Oddity in the Oddity Exchange Shop at the moment, which could only be exchanged for a ’Red Origin Heavenly Fire’ Oddity of the same quality. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"It looks like I’m going to have to get my hands on some more high-quality strange objects later. Should I try with the family?"

Sighing, Song Chi turned his thoughts to the Dinghai Song Family, an ancient family with a heritage nearly three thousand years old.

In the entire Torch Human Civilization Territory, the Dinghai Song Family might not count as much, but if we’re talking solely about the Chenxing Principality, the Song Family was definitely a colossal entity with substantial weight.

With such an enduring legacy, surely the family had accumulated a number of high-quality strange objects that couldn’t be transformed into fleet components?

Thinking this, he quickly shook his head again.

Let alone attracting attention, there likely wasn’t much of such stockpiled oddities within the Song Family.

The reason was simple. For those ordinary forces, it might be difficult to trade with alien civilizations outside the Torch Human Civilization Territory, but for the Dinghai Song Family, who had a Torch Ship Captain of the Fifth Rank Level, this was actually quite simple.

This meant that the high-quality strange objects accumulated by the Song Family over thousands of years, which couldn’t be transformed into fleet components, were likely already traded away.

...

The time within the venue flew by, but the auction for the Red Epic Relic still hadn’t come to an end.

Elon was not foolish; after many rounds of bidding by those around him, his mindset gradually shifted from initial anxiety to holding out for a better offer.

He had entered the Ruins Market shortly after it had opened, and there was still plenty of time remaining, which made him even less eager to make a decision.

He had even started to entertain other ideas beyond just survival; he contemplated using this Red Quality item to better pave the way for his extraordinary path in the future.

For his part, Song Chi was not in a hurry to intervene.

Since he had decided to use the ’Ruins Market Walking Command,’ it was necessary to do so in the capacity of the Ruins Market Lord.

Therefore, it was better to make a bid at the final stage and decisively conclude the auction, aligning closely with the Ruins Market’s inherent mystery and unknown.

Time passed, and several more hours went by.

As time moved on, the number of Alien Species in the Ruins Market reached a new height.

At the entrance vortex portal, a wave of spatial fluctuations came forth; although this fluctuation had been triggered countless times, it now drew the attention of Song Chi, the Ruins Market Lord.

If his senses were not mistaken, this particular spatial fluctuation was from the same portal that the owner of the ’Neutron Star Core’ had used to enter earlier.

"Getting impatient, are they?"

It was not hard to guess that most likely, it was the human who had brought in the ’Neutron Star Core’—that person’s enemies had grown impatient waiting and had decided to enter the Ruins Market themselves through the spatial gate.

With this deduction, Song Chi’s thoughts shifted back to the still-ongoing auction booth.

Sure enough, the human who had been reveling in the thrill of continuous bidding just moments ago reacted immediately upon noticing several figures entering through the Ruins Market entrance.

Despite the concealment of mechanical battle armor, making it impossible for other Alien Species to discern any specific changes in his expression, Song Chi, the Ruins Market Lord, could.

"Just as I thought..."

Watching the human’s face flash with intense panic and fear, Song Chi knew the answer.

And with this incident, an auction that had lasted for several hours began to change.

The previously nonchalant Elon, who had been holding out for a better offer, lost the desire to delay any further. His thoughts raced in his mind, and his gaze shifted back and forth rapidly among the highest bidders during this time.

About five minutes later, seeing that the timing was almost right, Song Chi’s spirit moved.

As his thoughts changed, all beings in the Ruins Market instinctively raised their heads, looking towards the vault of the Ruins Market sky.

As if on cue, the previously serene sky of the Ruins Market began to churn with clouds and wind. Innumerable powers of the Ruins Market Laws swiftly converged, eventually forming an illusory Law Golden Dragon, a kilometer in length, above everyone’s heads.

With a majestic roar, as if the cry of an ancient dragon, rang out like a thunderclap on a clear day, resonating distinctly in the minds of every Alien Race being present.
