Ant Lord in the Star Realm

Chapter 1070: Chapter 709: Deadly Ties, Part 3

White Ivy paused for two seconds, carefully observing the Queen of Phantom Lotus’s reaction, and tentatively asked, "Queen of Phantom Lotus, have you ever heard of the ’Heart of Bee King’?"

The Queen of Phantom Lotus did not respond.

White Ivy explained, "A Divine-Grade fruit exclusively for the Ant King, Bee Queen, and Assistant King, granting an exotic system ability known as the Heart of Bee King. Once activated, it forms a special energy field overlapping with the range of spiritual power.

Within the energy field, ant swarms and bee swarms receive comprehensive strengthening, with the amplification ranging from 10% to 50%, depending on the comprehensive strength of the Ant King, Bee Queen, or Assistant King. The stronger the comprehensive strength, the greater the amplification."

The Queen of Phantom Lotus said quietly, "Are you referring to the Divine-Grade Quin Olive Fruit?"

White Ivy: "...Yes."

Queen of Phantom Lotus: "I’ve already eaten it."

—Some insect had gotten ahead of us~

White Ivy was momentarily speechless.

The Queen of Phantom Lotus muttered, "The trade in Bee King Honey has resumed, and the trade in Divine-Grade fruits has also restarted. A Third Level Chamber of Commerce, it seems that Ant King has more than one Divine God-Given Seed. At least two!"

"Yes—"

White Ivy quickly gathered her thoughts and said, "Queen of Phantom Lotus, there are other Divine-Grades you would definitely be interested in."

The Queen of Phantom Lotus directly asked, "White Ivy, how many Divine-Grade trading rights do you control?"

White Ivy: "Double digits."

The Queen of Phantom Lotus: "10 is double digits. 99 is also double digits."

White Ivy vaguely said, "Quite a lot, Queen of Phantom Lotus, whatever type you want or need, feel free to let me know."

Queen of Phantom Lotus asked, "Soul system talent granting? Do you have it?"

White Ivy: "No."

Queen of Phantom Lotus: "Strength or Life system talent granting? Do you have it?"

White Ivy: "Haven’t found it yet."

Queen of Phantom Lotus: "Thunder system talent granting, do you have it?"

White Ivy: "Not yet, but I can definitely get it. I have Wind system, Water system, and Metal system, and there’s plenty of them."

Queen of Phantom Lotus: "That’s impressive. Find the Divine-Grade for granting Thunder system talent and then come find me."

"..."

White Ivy glanced at the Assistant Kings with unfriendly eyes on both sides of the Queen of Phantom Lotus and cautiously asked:

"Queen of Phantom Lotus, you’ve eaten the Divine-Grade Molan Seed that grants Scorching Ability, right?"

"I was fortunate to eat one..."

The Queen of Phantom Lotus’s gaze shifted back to the Metal Can, and instantly understood.

The Orchid Grass emblem.

No doubt, the Divine-Grade Molan Seed belonged to the Ant King of Cloud Trace Continent.

—That Ant King should possess both the White Poplar Fruit and the Molan Seed.

—All other caravans that traded with that Ant King have left, so it’s likely that the entire share of the two Divine-Grades was captured by White Ivy.

The Queen of Phantom Lotus pondered the situation and, understanding the general situation, changed the topic and asked:

"Under the cosmic laws, the life-extending effect of the Divine-Grade is tripled, and after breaking through the Third Trace Realm, the effect doubles again. So, the life extension effect of a single Divine-Grade Baihe Fruit should be 300 years, right?"

White Ivy was taken aback, replying: "...Yes."

The Queen of Phantom Lotus continued to ask: "What about the price?"

White Ivy: "The going rate, 50,000 per fruit."

The Queen of Phantom Lotus asked: "And what’s the price of the Divine-Grade Molan Seed?"

White Ivy: "100,000 per fruit."

The Queen of Phantom Lotus asked: "What price did you buy the Divine-Grade Ghost Lotus Seed for?"

"91,000 per fruit."

White Ivy explained in detail: "Exchange two Divine-Grade Baihe Fruits for one Divine-Grade Ghost Lotus Seed, with you making up the 9,000 Primordial Crystal difference. Divine-Grade Molan Seed and Ghost Lotus Seed are of the same grade, exchanged one-to-one, and likewise, I make a little effort fee."

Without waiting for the Queen of Phantom Lotus to refute,

White Ivy continued, "Queen of Phantom Lotus, I also possess other Divine-Grades that you will certainly be interested in. The most powerful of them grants an Exotic System Ability called ’Super Brain’, which acts on the brain..."

"The brain?"

The Queen of Phantom Lotus stood up and asked, "A newly found Divine-Grade?"

White Ivy vaguely said: "You could say that."

Queen of Phantom Lotus asked: "You haven’t eaten it yourself?"

White Ivy: "I have—"

The Queen of Phantom Lotus shook her tentacles in disappointment, saying: "Then it seems its effect isn’t significant, couldn’t make the insects smarter."

White Ivy: "..."

White Ivy explained: "The Super Brain Ability is an ability that needs to be actively released, assisting Insect Clan Warriors in quickly recording, analyzing, and handling complex information."

Silvergrass cautiously added: "Perfectly paired with Scorching Ability, its uses in the Star Space are endless."

White Ivy further supplemented: "For example, the ability to deduce combinations, observe, analyze, and learn the abilities of other insects."

"!!!"

The Queen of Phantom Lotus’s tentacles quivered slightly, intrigued and doubtful, asking: "What about the price?"

White Ivy: "It’s also 100,000 per fruit. However, the production is very low, only one every 16 years, and the production of the last 32 years has already been booked."

"Send one over, I’ll have a taste."

The Queen of Phantom Lotus realized that White Ivy was not as unworthy as rumored, nor as downtrodden as it seemed, and its Divine-Grade trade had resumed.

"White Ivy, what other powerful Divine-Grades do you have?"

"I do!"

Inside White Ivy, the Fire System Primordial Energy fluctuated slightly, and a layer of dark red tumorous protuberance rose up, "A rather rare Fire system defensive type ability, Day Spot."

White Ivy said while switching her Primordial Energy breath, shifting the Fire system’s protuberance into the Water system, "A very practical Water system defensive ability, Moon Spot."

"Day Spot and Moon Spot are a pair, they can be sold together, priced at 55,000 Primordial Crystals. Two exchange for one Divine-Grade Ghost Lotus Seed, I make up for the 36,000 Primordial Crystal difference."

"..."

The Queen of Phantom Lotus looked towards Silvergrass.

The direct descendant of Wormwood, who didn’t want to raise him, sent it to the White Ivy Trade Caravan.

Then looked at Red Peach.

Always following White Ivy, seen on the home planet many times, a silent insect who has never spoken a word.

Vaguely remembered, even when it was an Intermediate Little Warrior, this Mantis was following White Ivy doing Origin Force Honey trade, helping with cargo transfer in the Starship Passage, doing manual labor.

It’s hard to understand how such a team has developed.

The Queen of Phantom Lotus asked: "And Melde? You have two more direct descendants, where are they?"

White Ivy: "They’ve gone to develop in the White Crystal Star System."

—Just as expected.

The Queen of Phantom Lotus: "White Ivy, you used to treat those two descendants very well, they betrayed you."

"How can it be called betrayal..."

White Ivy said: "I can’t take care of them for a lifetime. The Luoli Chamber of Commerce offers more prospects, going to develop in the White Crystal Star System is a wise decision."

The Queen of Phantom Lotus: "..."

The Queen of Phantom Lotus sighed lightly, waved her claw, and said: "In the past, the Divine-Grade Ghost Lotus Seed Spurge took six shares, I left them, you use them first..."
