"Hmm...... If you really want to do this, I can help you a little, and the fact that the Elves can give you the Seed of Eden as a thank you shows that you are still worth the investment. ”

Icarus glanced at Wang Yu and the others, nodded thoughtfully, and did not question it again, but instead took out a card similar to the identity card and handed it to Avia.

"This is the voucher of the shops in the streets and alleys we passed through that block before, it is not very expensive, and we have a lot of such shops under the Truth Supervision Society, so it will be a gift from the Truth Supervision Society to you."

Icarus explained that this thing is a thing that resembles a land lease, and unlike those shops with architectural plans, it is considered a street stall.

Mobile shops, which provide space for alchemists and scholars in Sky Mechanical City to trade independently, and can build some detachable buildings as shops within the permitted range.

"Thank you for your help."

The four thanked Icarus.

"It's okay, we should have cooperation in the future, and then, if you have any questions about Sky Machinery City, you can ask me now, I'll answer them for you first, of course, you can come to me later, but I won't necessarily be there then."

Icarus looked at the crowd, ready to answer their questions before leaving.

"Mr. Icarus, I would like to ask, does Sky Mechanical City have any knowledge about the starry sky above us, has anyone ever arrived in that space?"

Wang Yu raised his hand, signaling that he had a question to ask, and asked the question after Icarus nodded.

In any case, he still wants to find out whether this world is a planet or not, and whether Sky Mechanical City already has the means to reach space, which is somewhat related to his return to Earth.

"Starry sky? Why do you ask this...... ”

Icarus frowned slightly, as if he didn't expect Wang Yu to ask this question.

The other party's performance made Wang Yu secretly wonder in his heart, could it be that the universe of this world is more different from the earth than he estimated?

"No, so far, no one has been able to reach the starry sky above us, and only a few astrologers have been able to borrow the power of the stars above us."

Icarus shook his head, answered Wang Yu's question, and then added after a slight pause.

"If you really want to know about the starry sky, you can try to find the answer in the sea of books of the Central Council, but the premise is to have the status of "professor" and then exchange equivalent knowledge. ”

"Finally, I would like to give a piece of advice from my personal point of view, the stars above are beautiful, but it is best not to overdo it, there are many people in history who have pursued this magnificent thing, but there are not many good ends."

Icarus was serious, and he also gave his admonition after pointing out how to get knowledge about the stars.

"I see."

Wang Yu nodded, indicating that he had listened.

"As expected, the void that exists on this continent always has a color similar to that of the stars, no matter how you look at it, the starry sky of this world will not be so simple, but if you can make this feather clan warn, what will it be?"

After thinking about it, Wang Yu didn't ask any more questions, and after waiting for the other elves to finish asking them what they wanted to know, he said goodbye to Icarus.

"You want to know about the starry sky?"

Ziggy asked Wang Yu after saying goodbye to the other elves.

"Well, didn't you try to fly up? That should reveal something. ”

Wang Yu really hadn't asked Zig about this before, so he will ask it together today.

"I don't know much about the starry sky, but if I keep flying up, I'll enter the dissociation layer. ”

Ziggy replied.

"Dissociation layer?"

Wang Yu heard this term for the first time.

"Yes, after entering this realm, the body will begin to collapse and dissociate, starting from the part of the transcendent power, a little bit of decomposition, and eventually, this dissociation will spread to the soul, completely annihilating the existence that has entered the dissociation layer, so far, there is no existence that can break through that realm."

Ziggy told Wang Yu about the nature of the existence called the "Dissociation Layer", which is one of the things that hinders the people of this world from exploring the heavens.

"And this kind of thing? Then let's not think about it so much for now, and find a way to earn the money to open the plane channel. ”

Wang Yu scratched his head, the existence of the dissociation layer made the exploration of space out of reach, and this thing was probably not something he could try to pass through for the time being.

The first thing to do now is to make money according to the previous plan, and the purpose of earning money is to help Ziggy open a passage to the undead plane.

The device that can stably open the plane passage is only available in the Sky Machinery City, and meeting in another plane is the secret method of the silver dragon Irelian.

"Professor, is it okay to sell your scales for money?"

Wang Yu asked Ziggy again to determine the first step of the plan.

"No problem, as long as it's not something similar to the blood around the heart, the dragon's body can regenerate quickly, and if the scales are there, they can grow quickly."

"Moreover, when I first came to the mainland with Noelle, I also earned gold coins by selling things like dragon blood, but now I am just going back to my old business."

Ziggy replied with a smile and added.

"That's good."

……

On the second day, when the residents of Sky Machinery City passed through the streets of the business district, they found that a rather delicate stone hut had been set up on the street where down-and-out alchemists and scholars often set up stalls to sell their works, and a wooden sign was hung on it, which read "Sell adult dragon scales".

"Dragon scales, how long has it been since this kind of race appeared on the mainland, basically those previous materials have been consumed, right, and now there will be people selling them?"

"Dragons' things, people with such high-level alchemy materials would still come to this kind of neighborhood to sell things? Even if it were true, it would have been damaged. ”

"Even though I built a stone house that looked pretty good, it was hard to believe that it was real, and there was no need to waste time."

Most of the alchemists, scholars, and ordinary transcendents who passed by shook their heads after seeing this sign and walked over without stopping, and most of those who had their own judgment could not think that this would be true.

But people, it's always like this, always holding a little luck, in case they catch a leak, no matter where they are, it's the same.

After half an hour of people coming and going, an alchemist walked into this shop, a young man in his thirties, who should have been on the Sky Machinery City for some days.

After entering, he looked at the layout of the small stone house, which was very simple, the room was divided into two pieces by a stone wall, with a table in front as a place to sell goods, and a workshop in the back, sheltered by curtains and magic circles.

"Hello, did you buy dragon scales?"

The man sitting behind the counter asked the alchemist, and next to him, a little red-haired girl was looking carefully at the book in her hand that she didn't know what it was.

The alchemist looked at Ziggy, who was wearing golden single-rimmed glasses behind the counter, and showed a gentle smile, the temperament of the other party made him feel that he did not feel like a liar, it was a kind of erudite and indifferent bookish atmosphere.

"I want to see dragon scales, can I?"

The alchemist made his own request, and whether Ziggy looked like a liar or not, he had to verify the authenticity of the goods himself.

"Absolutely."

Ziggy took out a box from under the counter and opened it, and inside was a black and red, palm-sized scale, with a rough surface with a special texture, and the thickness was about two or three centimeters.

The first time the alchemist saw the scales, he thought it was real, and some of the details were exactly the same as those described in the alchemy consumables books he knew by heart, such as the change in color, which was a symbol of the transformation of the young dragon into the old dragon.

"You can pick it up and look at it, or you can test it with an instrument."

Ziggy pushed the box towards the alchemist, signaling that if the other party was not at ease, he could further check the authenticity.

"Thank you for your understanding."

The alchemist was a little surprised, there are really not many merchants who can make customers do this, and the damage to high-grade alchemy materials will bring a lot of losses.

Clamping the scales with the tweezers he had carried, the alchemist tapped a glittering silver awl on top of the scales, which gradually changed color and eventually turned a clear blue.

"The super-grade magic is affinity, the hardness is also up to standard, and the characteristics are consistent with the book records, it is indeed the dragon scales, ask me, what is the price of this dragon scale."

The alchemist said, a trace of joy appeared in his eyes, he also happened to have alchemy works that could use this kind of high-strength and high-magic affinity material to come here to try his luck, but he didn't expect him to really find it.

I don't know how much this rare type of high-grade alchemy material costs, so I hope I can afford it.

"1000, forgive me for not accepting a bargain."

Ziggy held up a finger and said the price of the dragon scales, and said that he would not accept counter-offers and other operations, which was the fixed price.

"It's a fair price, I want a piece, do you still have stock, if so, I'll ask a few alchemists I know to buy some as reserves."

The alchemist did not hesitate to take out his identity card and prepare to transfer the money to Ziggy, which is the standard price of high-level alchemy materials, and considering the scarcity of dragon scales, this price is actually considered low.

By the way, he asked Ziggy a question, and planned to let a few of his acquaintances buy some too, whether it was used as a material reserve or sold for a profit.

"There are some, but not much."

Ziggy looked through the counter below and gave an answer, this price was set after studying the average price of high-end materials on the Sky Machinery City, if you want to sell it more expensive, 1500 is a very normal price.

However, the cost price of dragon scales is about 0, and the purpose of selling these dragon scales is only to make up the first start-up capital for the purchase of alchemy equipment, and their main business is not this.

Satisfied, he transferred the money to Ziggy, and the alchemist took the dragon scales away, and after about twenty minutes, the other party really led several scholars and alchemists to the store, and bought several dragon scales from Ziggy.

Several customers who entered and walked out of the shop attracted the attention of other passers-by from the outside world, and then some people entered Ziege's shop, and the deal was quickly concluded because of the absolutely non-quality goods and fair low prices.

Gradually, a small queue appeared outside the store, and the aroma of wine was not afraid of the deep alley, not to mention that this small shop was still on the side of the road, as long as it was a real thing, it was naturally not afraid that no one would come.

"How many more, I want more."

An alchemist who appeared to be the one in charge of procurement at some of the Society said to Zigger.

"Eighteen pieces, you want them?"

Ziggy didn't engage in hunger marketing either, so he sold it at a fixed price as soon as possible or bought alchemy equipment as soon as possible, and neatly took out a dozen boxes from the counter and put them in front of the other party.

"Well, it's all accepted, 18,000, right, I'll give it to you after verifying the quality."

The other party opened the box and confirmed the quality one by one.

"It's a pity, I didn't expect there to really be dragon scales, and I was preempted."

"I don't know if the boss still has it, this price, it's really unwilling to miss it, let's take a look tomorrow."

The people in the queue behind saw that someone had wrapped all the dragon scales, and they could only leave in a daze, or think about coming back the next day, there are no special market rules here, anyway, the deal is reached, and there is no reason for anyone to let anyone.

Ziggy is also simply, the dragon scales are sold out, and as soon as the door is closed, it will be closed directly.

In any case, on this day, this stone house shop has become a little famous on this street.

……

The next day, the alchemist who had been the first to enter the shop made a special rush here early in the morning, wanting to see if the small shop that had sold out of dragon scales would sell something.

Looking at it from a distance, the stone house was still there, and he was happy in his heart, it seemed that the other party had unsold things, and he planned to continue selling goods here, and if possible, he also planned to buy some materials that could be used.

But when he got closer, he found that the sign on the stone house had changed, saying "Level 8 Fitter Shop", followed by a small series of introductory sentences, "Alchemy Item Maintenance", "Advanced Material Processing", "Pharmacy Item Production" and a series of miscellaneous businesses.

"...... this?"

The alchemist was stunned for a moment, he understood the business behind, but he didn't quite understand what "eighth-level fitter" meant, but he still walked into the store.

The layout of the store is still about the same, but a series of alchemy equipment has been placed on the table, which looks brand new, and the quality is much higher than that used by himself, which makes him a little envious.

The bookish man was gone, and in his place was a young man with a translucent lens of magic over his right eye, looking at the book in his hand, writing and drawing in a somewhat torn notebook

"How can we help?"

Wang Yu looked up and asked the alchemist.

Just as he was about to answer that he didn't have any needs, the alchemist thought of something and pulled something out of his pocket that looked like a pocket watch, and the hands on it were no longer moving.

The steady-state clock, which can maintain high-precision timing in various extreme environments, is a commonly used alchemy instrument for high-level alchemists, and the price is very high, he is second-hand, and it breaks down after using it for a while.

Because once this thing is disassembled, it is easy to repair it because the constancy of the internal environment is broken, and he does not dare to cultivate it with his own alchemy level, so it is better to give it to this "eighth-level fitter" shop to try.

"Fix this? I can't necessarily fix it, I have to take a look first, oh? This is simple, give, repaired. ”

Receiving the steady-state clock handed over by the alchemist, Wang Yu first reminded him, and as he spoke, he used the power of the chariot to deconstruct and scan the pocket watch-like alchemy prop.

He immediately discovered the internal problem, one of the thousands of interconnected gears was melted by the heat, causing a problem in the whole situation, and the wheel was reset through the shell with the power of the chariot, and the repair was completed.

"Huh?"

The alchemist looked at the steady-state clock that Wang Yu had handed over in no more than ten seconds, and was dumbfounded, how could it be, didn't this guy do anything, trick him?

But he soon found that the pointer that had been stagnant before was moving again, and Wang Yu said that it was repaired, which was true......

The power of the eighth-level fitter is terrifying.
