Chapter 303: Chapter303:Make A Fortune
Too little?
Kosor was suddenly taken aback.
He could hardly believe what he had just heard—Enzo was complaining that the amount of Life Water he wanted to purchase was too small. What he needed was a full ten tons!
At that moment, Enzo spoke up, "How about this: I'll give you a figure, and if you can take over this batch of Life Water, we can make a deal. If not, I'll look for someone else."
"How much?" Kosor asked curiously, still not believing that Enzo could have more Life Water.
"Three thousand tons." Enzo replied.
"How much?" Kosor was completely stunned, suddenly sitting up straight. Realizing he had lost his composure, he sat back down and asked curiously, "Mr. Enzo, you're not joking, are you? Do you really have three thousand tons of Life Water?"
Enzo replied calmly, "I don't have a habit of joking about such matters."
Hiss—
Kosor immediately gasped. Such a large amount of Life Water could probably fill a small pond, but he couldn't possibly buy it all. Based on the price they had previously agreed upon, four tons of Life Water was worth one Elemental Origin Crystal, so three thousand tons would amount to seven hundred fifty Elemental Origin Crystals.
However, there was still one more issue that needed to be considered.
This meant that such a large quantity of Life Water would inevitably lead to fluctuations in its price, likely causing its value to decrease significantly. Therefore, the news of the transaction couldn't be exposed, which put Kosor in a difficult position. He didn't want to miss out on this opportunity, but his financial resources couldn't support such a move.
After much thought, he made a decision.
"Mr. Enzo, I don't have enough Elemental Origin Crystals on hand." Kosor began, seeing a hint of displeasure on Enzo's face. He quickly added, "But I do have a few treasures that are quite valuable and could cover the worth of this Life Water."
Enzo's interest was piqued. "What treasures?"
Kosor smiled and said, "Please follow me."
With that, Kosor stood up and pressed a stone on the wall of the room. The stone immediately recessed, revealing a passage leading underground. The passage wasn't long, consisting of about ten steps, and at the end of the stairs was a glowing teleportation array. Kosor explained with a smile, "This city is built in the sky, and creating underground spaces isn't allowed.
Therefore, almost all shops either hire someone or build their own teleportation arrays to connect to their warehouses or other locations."
As he spoke, Kosor activated the teleportation array.
The array lit up with a blue glow, transporting Enzo and Kosor to an open valley that appeared quite desolate, devoid of any signs of life. Surrounding the area were crystals designed to block others' prying eyes, effectively disguising the valley.
Enzo speculated that they were in a valley on a lifeless world.
It had to be said that such a method was indeed clever. In the Underground-River starfield, the number of dead, lifeless planets was vast. People generally wouldn't choose to visit these planets, and given the considerable size of each planet, even if someone did, they wouldn't specifically search for hidden secrets in a small valley like this. The odds of discovering it were minimal.
At this point, Kosor led Enzo to a piece of silvery-white ore.
"Mr. Enzo, this is a Star Mithril." Kosor explained. "It only appears when a planet is completely destroyed and collapses into a black hole. The difficulty of obtaining it is immense, and it holds extremely high value."
Enzo nodded, feeling the Chaos Behemoth egg's desire.
This indicated that the Star Mithril indeed possessed extraordinary properties. Furthermore, he was planning to find someone to forge a suitable weapon, and this piece of Star Mithril might come in handy.
"How much do you want to price this Star Mithril at?" Enzo asked Kosor.
"Six hundred Elemental Origin Crystals!" Kosor quickly replied, then added, "The rest, I'll pay you in Elemental Origin Crystals."
"That works." Enzo agreed without hesitation. He knew that Kosor had likely inflated the value of the Star Mithril, but to him, Life Water held even less value, making this a profitable deal.
Once the transaction was confirmed, Enzo asked, "Will the Life Water stay here?"
Kosor nodded and then casually manipulated the terrain of the valley to dig out a small pool, taking precautions to prevent the Life Water from leaking away through the soil. "Mr. Enzo, it can just be placed in this pool."
Enzo nodded, focusing his mind to draw the Life Water from his small world.
As the vibrant Life Water poured into the pool, it caused a transformation in the surroundings. Green plants began to sprout up in the previously barren valley.
This extraordinary sight made Kosor incredibly excited.
He had hit the jackpot!
The quality of this Life Water, after a bit more refinement, could probably be distilled into Life Water essence.
However, Kosor didn't mention this. Although he was clearly delighted, he didn't display overwhelming excitement. It wasn't until the Life Water filled the pool he had created that he laughed heartily and said, "Mr. Enzo, if you have any more Life Water, please come find me for a trade."
"Sure." Enzo replied.
At this point, only half of the Life Water remained in his small world, but after some time, the World Tree would absorb elemental energy and produce more Life Water.
This meant that the Life Water in Enzo's possession was inexhaustible. He couldn't help but wonder how Kosor would react once he understood the truth, but for now, Kosor was excitedly handing Enzo one hundred fifty Elemental Origin Crystals.
Enzo took the Elemental Origin Crystals and also stored the Star Mithril in his small world.
Then, the two of them passed through the teleportation array and returned to the Potion shop.
With the deal completed, Kosor became even more enthusiastic.
Especially now that Enzo had a significant amount of Elemental Origin Crystals, Kosor regarded him as a valuable customer. He smiled and asked, "Mr. Enzo, would you like to take a look at our Potions? These are not ordinary Potions. They can definitely help you in some dangerous situations."
Enzo shook his head and declined, saying, "No need for Potions."
Hearing this, Kosor felt a bit disappointed.
Just then, Enzo spoke up again, "Kosor, do you know any famous Forging Masters? I want to find someone to forge a weapon."
"Weapons forging?" Kosor was taken aback.
But thinking of Enzo's identity—a newly joined member of the temple—he suddenly realized something. He said to Enzo, "You don't need to look for other Forging Masters. There are skilled forgers within the temple, and I can tell you a very secret piece of information: that forger may appear to be at Level 9, but in reality, he has broken through the supernatural boundary and become a powerful deity."
"Who is it?" Enzo asked, intrigued to learn that such a person existed in the temple.
Kosor lowered his voice, speaking mysteriously, "The forger from the Pride Temple, Scottsdale. He should be coming to Alfa Star in a few days. I can take you to find him then."
Enzo hadn't anticipated such a pleasant surprise.
A weapon forged by a deity would definitely be more reliable than anyone else's. Moreover, this individual was also a member of the Temple of the Seven Gods, making him even more trustworthy. Although there were rivalries among the various temples, agreements could be signed between different temples to hold each other accountable.
And once the agreement was certified by the temple, all temples were required to abide by it.
Thinking of this, Enzo felt quite grateful to Kosor. The two chatted for a while longer, discussing recent major events. Especially after learning that Enzo had returned from the Fierce Beast continent, Kosor became even more curious and asked Enzo about Eomaia. Enzo took the opportunity to inform Kosor that he had fragments of Eomaia's flesh, which made Kosor unable to sit still again.
He hurriedly asked, "Enzo, are you sure you're not joking with me?"
Without wasting any words, Enzo took out a small piece of Eomaia's flesh and said, "Take a look at this."
Upon sensing the uniqueness of the piece of meat, Kosor's expression became extremely serious.
This was real, not some fake imitation.
Kosor's eyes grew fervent as he asked, "Enzo, how much Eomaia flesh do you have left?"
Enzo thought about the size of the flesh fragment and gave an approximate amount, saying, "About one ton."
"One ton!"
Kosor was stunned.
He chuckled wryly and said, "Enzo, do you know how much Eomaia flesh fragments are selling for within the temple right now? Just a piece the size of a palm, around two kilograms, goes for one hundred contribution points, which translates to twenty Elemental Origin Crystals. You've hit the jackpot, my friend!"
Kosor was quite envious, but he had no thoughts of seizing it for himself.
Enzo hadn't realized that Eomaia flesh fragments were worth so much, and he was surprised that there were so many wealthy individuals in the temple. But thinking about it, the Temple of the Seven Gods gathered all the talents of the entire Underground-River starfield. These individuals naturally had many factions backing them, so they wouldn't lack for Elemental Origin Crystals.
What they lacked were treasures that could enhance their abilities, and Eomaia flesh was precisely that kind of thing.
At that moment, Enzo turned to Kosor and said, "Kosor, I'll give you ten percent of the reward if you help me sell this piece of Eomaia flesh."
