Chapter 573: Chapter 509: Even the Bamboo Rat and Li Are Broke (Third Update, Please Subscribe!)
What made many visitors feel regret was that they were, after all, just visitors, not guests invited to enter this space.
All they could do was to look with their eyes.
They couldn’t touch it, smell it, or even get close to it. As for those breathtaking buildings atop the clouds-piercing peaks, they could not see them either.
It was indeed regrettable.
As visitors, they had very low privileges; they could not leave any trace behind; they could only give a thumbs up to show they had been to this space.
And leave their own messages on the "Chestnut’s Cottage" message board.
"Bowing down to the big shot in the front row."
"Does the big shot lack any leg accessories?"
"The second-ranked on the leaderboard paying respects."
"Kneeling to the big shot above."
"Who said that Chestnut’s big shot’s total score is a BUG? Come out, say it again!"
"The layout score is five times the module score, this one isn’t just a Consuming Crystal big shot, I remember the leaderboard has many whose layout scores aren’t even one fifth of their module scores, tsk tsk."
"From today onwards, I’m a fan of Chestnut’s big shot."
"Get lost, I’m Xiaoli’s superfan!"
"Xiaoli, I love you(づ3)づ~."
"Doesn’t anyone stan the developers? After fighting in the ’Spirit Space’ for so long, we get tired, not physically, not spiritually, but emotionally...because there was originally no place to rest in the space. Staying within one’s personal practice space is just like being in the outdoors. It’s troublesome to leave the space, and what if the rooms are full when you get back, how embarrassing! As someone obsessed with ’Spirit Space,’ I’d love to spend all 28 hours a day in it, and now there’s a place to rest in between fights, and even materialize delicious food... In short, bring on as much of this Consuming Crystal feature as possible!"
The many visitors could not see each other and could only communicate through the virtual space message board, but their messages were fleeting.
Duke More was among these people.
He opened the semi-transparent panel and glanced at his carefully arranged space, which cost him tens of thousands of Source Crystals, and was ranked 69th on the leaderboard.
Oh, in just a moment, it had dropped to 73rd.
He then glanced at the "Chestnut’s Cottage" space message board again, where people were already exchanging Consuming Crystal arrangement plans.
What a deal, three thousand for a set, five thousand won’t be a loss.
He was speechless, lowered his head, and silently covered his chest.
People of Green Shadow,
really wealthy.
I, the Duke of Aino Kingdom,
can’t be outdone!
...
On the space leaderboard, "Chestnut’s Cottage" reigned at the top, while the ranks below were constantly changing.
Most were Awakeners residing in Green Shadow, among them some very famous names.
Such as Great Advisor Yan.
Such as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Wang Zhou.
And some well-known adventurers.
Moreover, several elders from the Mage Alliance, including Chief Elder Oldington, had made it to the top hundred in space arrangement. In their words, the planning within the "Spirit Space" was in no way inferior to the outside world. Now, as long as one’s understanding and spiritual power were sufficient, one could materialize any desired materials.
They didn’t have to worry about experiments blowing up; their home could be reset at any time.
They didn’t have to worry about the high cost of experiments. The materials conjured with Consuming Crystals, compared to the real ones, were valued at less than one percent or even one thousandth and could be reused endlessly.
Even using human subjects for testing was fine.
After resurrection, it was as if one were a brand new man.
It was simply the most ideal experimental venue.
The moment Oldington and a few other elders, who were centuries-old, learned the news, their eyes nearly shone with excitement.
They immediately abandoned their experiments, and even the endless books in the "Knowledge Tower" were momentarily set aside as they transformed into a shooting star and headed for the "Training Camp."
The consequence of this was that they were stopped by the law-enforcing Awakeners of the Guardian Corps before entering the "Spirit Space," because they violated the "Green Shadow City No-Fly Order," and were penalized a sum of Source Crystals.
Oldington and the others did not care.
Compared to Duke More, who winced at the loss of even a small ten thousand Source Crystals, the elders of the Mage Alliance were much more extravagant; they didn’t start experiments without tens of thousands of Source Crystals.
Big experiments costing hundreds of thousands, even millions of Source Crystals were also common.
Just take the No-Fly Order’s fine and be done with it.
As for the elders reaching as high as fifth on the ranking list, the rest also within the top hundred?
During an interview with "Green Shadow Daily," Oldington stated that they weren’t competing for rankings, but now that they had the means, they spared no expense to set up the lab to the highest standards. The array of rare materials that manifested were merely necessities for their experiments.
They made the list quite by accident, and there was nothing they could do about it ╮(╯▽╰)╭.
He further mentioned that if they did aim to compete on the leaderboards, their total score would be more than just four or five digits. Look at the seven-digit score of the one at the top, Oldington said, you young people still need to work harder towards your goals.
...
At this moment,
The one at the top of the list, inside "Chestnut’s Cottage," bamboo rat Li was squatting on the mountain peak, looking down at the drifting sea of clouds, her brow involuntarily furrowing.
[Ding! Your balance is insufficient, please recharge as soon as possible...]
[Ding! Your balance is insufficient...]
[Ding!...]
She was quite unhappy.
Her cottage wasn’t even fully decorated yet, so how could she be out of money?
The membership card for the "Training Camp" and her personal ID card were linked, whether it was the weekly salary as a follower, the extra money earned as an instructor at the "Extreme Martial Arts Hall," or... and so on, all Source Crystals were deposited into this card.
No money,
Meant she really had no money.
She couldn’t even continue to recharge!
Unless she borrowed money, but from whom?
"Eileen?"
She shook her head; she would definitely get lectured.
"Lorraine?"
No go, she was poor as well!
"Winnie?"
I haven’t returned the Source Crystals I borrowed last time, right? How much was it?
"Lord?"
He would definitely charge a high-interest rate!
Wait,
That’s not right!
Who was it that told me to properly decorate my space?
It was the Lord!
I did everything he asked, showed off my cottage, so why am I being charged a fee of 10 percent?!
It’s made me poor now!
With that thought, Xiaoli immediately sent a message.
A moment later,
[Ding! Your account has been credited with 10K units of Source Crystals, with a note: Including the 10 percent privilege, this is effectively 100K Source Crystals. Be content.]
"???"
Content your squeak!
Visibly upset, bamboo rat Li puffed her cheeks, "Bad Lord! Stinky Lord! Since you’re heartless, don’t blame me for being disloyal squeak!"
Her expression was fierce, baring her teeth and claws.
Violence couldn’t solve the problem, but since the stinky Lord wanted me to showcase my space, then I’ll... turn off the space showcase!
Hmmph~!
Just as she was about to disable the space showcase, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the densely packed messages on the space message board.
All kinds of worship,
All kinds of 666,
All kinds of praise for big boss Chestnut.
Bamboo rat Li suddenly felt that the feeling of showcasing the cottage and being worshipped... seemed not too bad.
Nevermind,
I won’t hold a grudge against the Lord today!
