Chapter 140: Raising Gems

Xue Hua was also shocked after listening to Stokoff's report, he originally thought that the discovery of the swarm at the location of "Planet One" was just an accident.

However, judging from the information currently available to the Swarm Fleet, the Star Spirit Colony that was supposed to be near Planet One was obviously also attacked, but the Swarm did not find the colony ship in that area.

I just don't know if they escaped smoothly in the end, or if they were taken away by the attackers with the whole ship.

Moreover, the terrifying super-giant life form inside Planet One should not be a protocracy on that planet, it should have been deliberately left there by the attackers.

After learning this information, Xue Hua's first reaction was to inform the Star Spirit Phase Technician Kelles of these situations, and then see if he could get any clues from him to see if the Star Spirit had inadvertently done something when he came to this universe.

However, he soon remembered that Kyles had locked himself up in the Colony's mechanical research institute and had not come out.

This guy doesn't know what he's doing in it, it's been almost half a month, and there's still no movement at all.

In the end, Xue Hua had to let Stokov lead the swarm fleet back to the asteroid belt base first, and from there he would return all the encrypted record crystals he found at the second Star Spirit Beacon point.

As for the pursuit and killing of the Star Spirit Colony Fleet, he couldn't do anything now, not to mention that the alliance between him and the Star Spirit had not yet been formally reached, even if the two were now allies, the current weak force of the Swarm Fleet would not be able to provide them with any help.

So those star spirits can only ask for more blessings now.

After the debriefing, Stolkov asked him about the next plan of action for the fleet.

And since Abbather is now obsessed with studying the genetic sequence of the Sandworm Queen, the unlocking of the Star Spirit Beacon has also stalled.

Xue Hua had no choice but to follow Isha's advice and let Stallkov lead the fleet to explore the star sector where the shelter world was located, looking for valuable planets to put down the hatchery, and strive to make the swarm expand rapidly in this universe.

Stokoff once put down a hatchery on "Planet Two" and left the Mother Worm, although the planet was too far away from the shelter world to connect to the mind of the main nest, and there were not many resources on the planet, but through the changes in the resource pool and the experience of the feedback from the Will of Domination skill, the Mother Worm that was left on Planet Two has done a good job so far.

After receiving the order, Stokoff disconnected to make arrangements, and Xue Hua began to worry about another matter.

That's where he's going to raise so many unblemished gems to open the circular arch that connects the Forgotten City.

The loot he brought back from the oasis had been disposed of by Varif for him, and those things were selected by him and the two little girls among the loot piles, so they were of high value.

But even so, there was still a big gap in the funds in his hands, at least ten flawless gems.

Such a large sum of money, even if he sold all the "rags" that were slowly transported back on the king worm, it would not have any effect at all, and he didn't want to borrow money from Varif so he could only turn his mind to a few of Rugoin's guardians.

However, although Xue Hua believed that if he went to Farah and Zhuo Genam to borrow money for this matter, as long as the amount borrowed was not too outrageous, they would not hesitate to donate generously, and even sell one or two pieces of the collection to raise money.

But again, he didn't trust the Guardians of Rogue as much as he trusted the three Guardians of Camp Roger, so if he asked them to borrow money, it would be equivalent to tying himself to them completely.

Whatever he thinks, in the eyes of outsiders, he has already received funding from the Guardians, so he is on their side.

And because of the connection between Farah and Zhuo Genam and the Lu Gaoin Mage Society, Xue Hua is equivalent to joining the power camp of the Lu Gao Yin Mage Guild and officially involved in the troubled waters of Lu Gaoin.

Until then, while he seemed to be working against the Guardian and the King, he hadn't intervened in any other issues between the Mage Guild and the other powers.

All he had done before was to find the tomb of Tarasya.

And it was precisely because he knew this that Jerhein wanted to try to recruit him to join his camp.

It's just that his appearance is too ugly, and Xue Hua is unwilling to be with him.

"Forget it! Just ask them to prepare the flawless gems for me, and say that they are the necessities of the quest to find the serpentine ornament. ”

Xue Hua thought about it for a long time and couldn't figure out where to go to raise such a large amount of money, and finally could only come up with this method that was not a way.

......

Just when Xue Hua was racking his brains to find a way to raise money, in a secret room in the palace of Lu Gaoin, King Jie Haiin was standing in the center of the room with his hands behind his back, listening to the report of the spy leader behind him with a gloomy face.

"Your Majesty, it seems that the necromancer had been to the business district in the afternoon, and had caused a commotion among the rebellious crowd, but his final destination seemed to be the Liji Firm, but our men only saw him enter, but not out.

He was joined by the merchant Varif ... He eventually came out of the trading house, but when he came out, he went straight back to his home......"

"Liji Firm?" Jayhain narrowed.

As the king of Lu Gaoin, his spy system is no worse than any other force, so he has always been suspicious of this so-called "expedition supply firm".

However, the guards against the portal in the dark alley area are too strict, and the royal family's secret agents have not found any problems in the business house several times in their infiltration investigations, so he can only suppress the suspicions in his heart for the time being.

However, this time, Xue Hua's sneaking into this business house and the abnormal behavior of the People's Protection Front later made his suspicion of this business house further increase in his heart.

A politician's instinct told him that there might be some hidden secrets in the firm.

So, he immediately interrupted the report of the spy leader, and ordered: "Immediately conduct a thorough investigation of the Liji Trading House, this time take my order, let the city guards also assist and cooperate, and use the purge of the commercial street as a reason." ”

"Uh... Your Majesty, it seems that there is Sisi among the partners of the Liji Comptoir... This ......"

However, the spy did not directly take the order to leave, but said in a hesitant voice.

"Humph! Is this Rugoin of my family Hein or of him of House Izikil? ”

Hearing this, Jie Haiyin couldn't help but snort angrily and said in a gloomy tone.

"Uh... I understand, Your Majesty, I'll do it! As soon as the spy leader thought about this, he was immediately frightened, and hurriedly responded, and wanted to run out.

However, just as he was about to run out of the door of the secret room, Jahine's voice with a thick tiredness and unwillingness sounded in his ears again.

"Stop, don't go, you just let me say nothing......"

"It's... Your Majesty......" The spy leader replied with a sigh of relief as if he had been amnestied.

He didn't want to do this kind of errand at all, especially offended the biggest minister in the kingdom of Lugoin.

"Okay, you go down, I'm tired......"

"Yes......"

The spy leader quickly exited the chamber, and the room fell silent for a moment.

After a long time, a cold, hoarse voice came from outside the walls of the chamber.

"So, the plan to open the seal is going to be postponed again?"
