"What do you want to trade?" Zhao Xing asked faintly.

Qi Luo saw that there was a chance, and immediately took out the list that had been prepared long ago.

"Distinguished guest, please look; we want a virtual world host, S-grade alloy forging technology, optical brain communication nano-chips, S-grade bases, and spaceships…"

Zhao Xing laughed immediately upon seeing this list.

"Elder Qi Luo, why don't you just ask me to join your Rock Horn Race?"

Qi Luo was stunned: "This, this wouldn't be possible, right."

Joining would probably be equivalent to treason.

"Asking me to sell you these is also almost equivalent to treason!"

Zhao Xing snorted: "And you only want to exchange them by paying some mineral resources?"

"Distinguished guest, is this really not possible?" Elder Qi Luo said somewhat disappointedly, "We can talk about the price again."

"No." Zhao Xing refused decisively.

Although he had the authority to sell a portion to the Rock Horn Race, this was also almost reaching his limit.

For no reason, without profit, why would Zhao Xing sell these to the Rock Horn Race?

To lower his evaluation in Primordial City?

If there were enough profit, it wouldn't be Zhao Xing's turn to do it.

It would probably have been done by a Void Prince long ago.

"Distinguished guest, then would you look at this second list?" Elder Qi Luo said.

He took out a second list.

Zhao Xing still had Zero take a look at it.

"Master, it doesn't matter if these are sold to the Rock Horn Race; they fall within the scope of normal trade."

"However, this Qi Luo seems to be doing this on purpose."

Zhao Xing smiled; he naturally knew what Qi Luo was thinking.

The trade the other party originally wanted to make was this second list.

The first one was just a smokescreen.

This old stone is actually quite shrewd.

If you ask to tear down the house, it's definitely not agreed to; if you say it's just opening a window, it's much easier for people to accept.

However, these things were still things that only big shots with status could get their hands on.

Qi Luo was also full of anticipation, because the Rock Horn Race hadn't encountered a Void Prince from the Empire for a long time.

"The advanced version of the virtual host you want, where you can learn secret techniques, I also have to apply for it and guarantee it for you."

Zhao Xing looked at Qi Luo: "What do you have that you can take out to exchange?"

"Ordinary things can't enter my eyes."

Qi Luo immediately ignited hope.

What the reformists care about most is the 'advanced version of the virtual host', which can link to the Red Star Empire's virtual world to learn various secret techniques.

What are the benefits of the virtual world?

It is mainly reflected in breaking through cultivation bottlenecks.

If there is an advanced version of the virtual world, then Rock Horn Race people who hit a bottleneck can perform trial and error, attempting to simulate the breakthrough in the virtual world!

Even if they fail, it doesn't matter!

If they succeed, after simulating a few more times and gaining experience, the certainty of breaking through in reality will be much greater.

But if not, the probability of a Rock Horn Race person breaking through is very, very low.

If the breakthrough fails and the life core collapses, the price is too high.

Therefore, the speed at which the Empire gives birth to powerhouses and the speed at which the Rock Horn Race gives birth to powerhouses are completely worlds apart.

"Distinguished guest, please wait a moment; I will go and discuss it with the other elders." Elder Qi Luo became excited.

When they first heard that the virtual world had such a function, they simply regarded it as a divine object.

Cultivation, those who can break through steadily without any problems are all geniuses.

But how many geniuses are there in the world?

They all found their direction through constant attempts.

If this trade can be completed, then their reformist faction will bring a huge improvement to the Rock Horn Race, and the conservative faction will no longer have the face to obstruct them.

"Qi Luo, are you sure that Empire Lord is willing to trade the advanced version of the virtual host with us?" A Legendary-grade Rock Horn Race person asked suspiciously.

"It won't be fake again, right? We've already been fooled several times."

Rock Horn Race people have also traded with other races and even Empire Lords.

But what they brought were castrated versions, which meant they couldn't simulate cultivation.

Many outsiders like to take half-true, half-false technology to deceive those backward civilizations…

Rock Horn Race people have been fooled several times and paid a lot.

This is also the reason why they hate outsiders so much.

Damn it, being cheated so many times, anyone would hate it!

"We must gamble." Elder Qi Luo said, "The universe is in the midst of intense changes."

"Various advanced civilizations and races are clashing, and there are three powerful civilizations, the Zerg Alliance, the Mechanical God Kingdom, and the Red Star Empire, in a great war."

"Everyone, look at these tens of thousands of years; our Rock Horn Race was originally the strongest race in this star sector, ruling over the other ethnic groups."

"Now, we can only shrink into a corner of the star sector."

"The scene that happened outside just now, you all saw it too."

Qi Luo's voice was somewhat heavy: "Clearly they were all Legendary-grade, yet Qi Lian was easily crushed by the guard of that Empire Lord."

"Why is this? It is because their civilization possesses unimaginable technology."

"It is rumored that they also have God-level existences, possessing weapons capable of destroying a star system… that is a powerful realm we cannot understand at all…"

"The pace and intensity of the reformist faction must be even greater!"

"Otherwise, if the Rock Horn Race continues to be so closed off, it won't be long before we are exterminated!"

The other elders were persuaded by Qi Luo, even if some of the conservative faction heard about this.

But this time they chose to remain silent.

It was just that there were some arguments about what to take to trade with that Lord.

Because Zhao Xing didn't look favorably upon the things they took out currently.

They also agreed with Qi Luo's view, but were unwilling to take out too many treasures to trade.

After arguing for a long time without a result.

Qi Luo couldn't help but mediate: "Alright, let's temporarily fulfill this Lord's request first."

"After fulfilling his request, perhaps he will be happy, and the requirements might be lowered."

…………

The arguments of the holy land elder group were basically eavesdropped on by Zero.

"Master, these guys are discussing how to please you."

"However, they don't seem to have argued out any result."

Zero is now a Legendary-grade intelligent life!

Before leaving the Life Research Institute headquarters, the Dean upgraded Zero.

In fact, this was also approved by Primordial City.

Intelligent life knows many secrets and important intelligence of the Lord, which is of course the top priority for protection.

Especially against Mechanical Lords of the virtual intrusion school.

The current Zero can also be considered to be able to truly exert the omnipotent functions of the Angel!

"This is not important." Zhao Xing waved his hand and said, "You invade their intelligent optical brains and see if there is anything I want."

"I checked." Zero said, "No suspicious items were found."

"However, the Rock Horn Race also knows that their network system cannot defend against powerhouses."

"There are quite a few treasure vaults that are not recorded in the virtual network."

"Instead, they adopted very primitive recording methods."

"For example, their holy land requires removing the internal intelligent chip and all technological items before entering."

"Then we can only wait."
