040 Blending and Mixing

The young man stopped and said calmly:

"A primitive planet, a desert surface, was hit by a meteorite decades ago, which cracked the crust and caused the radioactive material content to exceed the standard - if managed well, it can be Radon Glutinous Rice Farm for at least two thousand years."

Send me the location.

"I don't have an interplanetary communicator."

Olavier tossed him a bracelet, which the young man immediately and skillfully put on, then sent him a message.

"—Sit down."

After receiving the message, Olavier's expression remained unchanged, but his tone became much more polite. "What's your name?"

"Lioz".

Li Aoz removed his hood, revealing his handsome and flawless face.

[Charm] Test Passed - A Great Success!

Olavier's Favorability for you has increased.

He slowly sat back down at the bar, smiling as he said:

"Practice makes perfect, and you'll never forget me."

"Are you sure... this is true?" Olavier looked at Li Aoz with suspicion.

"Whether it's true or not, you can go and see for yourself. Anyway, I didn't ask you for any money. And no one else knows about this." Li Aoz shrugged. "If all else fails, you can drag me to Red King's shrine and have his priest sign a credit agreement."

"Enough. I believe this information is true. Let's not continue talking about Red King. After all, he is the only main god that exists in Star Abyss now."

Olavier shook his head.

Silicon-based life forms came into contact with the Tao very early on, and have always been superstitious about gods, not daring to touch them easily.

But Olavier still raised a point. "This thing is quite valuable. How could a Magic Apprentice who hasn't even graduated from university know such detailed information?"

Olavier switched to his private channel and said seriously:

"If you sell this information to a larger silicon-based civilization, they can send you a 'Destroyer' class transforming spaceship, equipped with Zeta-class AI, plus a Friendship Medal."

Li Aoz shook his head:

"I'm currently in political asylum, so the spaceship is of little use to me. In contrast, I need two favors from you."

"Don't go too far, you magic boy." Olavier remained serious and earnest. "I can tell that you are Thanatos Human Race, and you definitely want to apply for asylum in Narrative-level Civilization —let me make it clear beforehand, immigration is too difficult, I can't do it."

"There's no need for that. Please listen to what I have to say first, and then decide whether you want to help. If we can't reach an agreement, we can try something else."

Li Aoz casually took something out of his sleeve and then laid it out in a row on the table with perfect ease.

Olavier glanced down: Li Aoz released some common potions, which were more tempting to brewers than chemical potions.

Although it wasn't a particularly valuable product, Olavier still accepted it.

With Li Aoz's explanation, it was easy for Olavier to accept. He nodded, and his gaze toward Li Aoz became more appreciative.

'This kid knows how to handle things. He's definitely been trained by a seasoned veteran.'

He put away the potion bottle and said generously:

"Alright. Tell me your conditions. As long as they're not unreasonable, I can meet them."

Li Aoz was not at all surprised that this tactic worked.

Olavier is a familiar face to the players, and he's also the top intelligence broker in Valkyrie Fortress. Players get more quests from him every day than they would from other NPCs in a year.

Moreover, while Olavier may appear to be a bar owner, he is actually a Silicon-born individual who has lived for two thousand years and possesses immense power. He has traveled through three major Narrative-level Civilization, and his friends, classmates, acquaintances, relatives, and business partners are scattered throughout the entire Abyss.

Even in the later stages of Li Aoz's previous life, he was unaware of just how terrifying Olavier's connections were.

"First, I want to know where Mr. Alde Midkash Ryue went after the ' Life Commune ' was dissolved?"

Li Aoz asked.

"Huh?"

Olavier was surprised:

"Why would you want to know this? This is not something a Beta-rank kid should know—at least a Zeta, no, at the very least a Delta-rank. But if you want to know, you're just going to your death."

"I have important needs and some academic questions that I must have answered by Mr. Liu E."

Li Aoz said:

"Back then, the Life Commune was researching the connection between Aoneng, genes, and the soul, trying to break the limits of life entropy. They had already made some initial progress, but suddenly parted ways on bad terms. In the Abyss, no one could surpass them in the research on life entropy. Only Mr. Liu E could answer my questions."

"I can arrange for you to meet her. You can leave tomorrow."

Olavier nodded; as Know-it-all, his influence was considerable. "And the second one?"

"The second one," Li Aoz said, "I want to get in touch with an Annihilation Priest. You can handle it yourself. Just introduce me to him, and I'm willing to give you 2.3% of the profits after it's done."

"Looks like it was smuggled." Olavier didn't seem to mind.

Valkyrie Fortress is a melting pot of all sorts of people. As long as you obediently pay taxes to the base port, no one will mind if you fight in the street.

"However, I must remind you."

Because he had a good impression of Li Aoz, Olavier kindly said, "First of all, Liu E has a bad personality and is quite eccentric. Her laboratory often has visitors who have mysteriously disappeared due to their insolence. If you don't have Delta-rank strength, I don't recommend you visit her, or at least hire a guard."

"Secondly, I am familiar with the Annihilation Priest, and I can introduce them now, but they are always arrogant. You'd better have something of real substance to offer—not something like radon glutinous rice that can be measured by a mere tens of millions of Ammonium Gold. The Temple is not short of money."

He looked at Li Aoz's sharply defined face:

"Narrative-level Civilization have high levels of education and morality, but that doesn't apply to an illegal regime like your Crystal Tower civilization—by the way, you haven't even graduated from university and are just a mortal, so you'll definitely be discriminated against and looked down upon by them."

"Learn."

Li Aoz nodded:

"Then introduce me now, and while you're at it, take me directly to the Void Exchange. I can ship the goods right now."

Olavier couldn't help but say, "Didn't you hear what I said? Child, in their eyes you're just a pretty monkey with an innocent smile and a touch of wild beauty. You don't have the background of Narrative-level or cluster-level civilization, so they won't respect you."

"That's not necessarily true. They'll have to ask me for help with this."

Li Aoz said calmly:

"From now on, they'll be begging me for help."
