Chapter 188 Zhou Ze, you're a complete psychopath! You even prey on intelligent life forms!
"Zhou Ze, buying this is definitely a good idea, it only costs 67 points!"
"This one is good too, only 234 million points!"
"This, this..."
Babata, his eyes gleaming, stared intently at the screen while muttering incantations:
"Just buy these for me," Zhou Ze said casually. "First, pick out some plant-based life forms. Hmm, the most important requirement is that they have high intelligence."
Babata looked at Zhou Ze and asked, "Does it need to be high intelligence?"
"Hmm." Zhou Ze nodded: "High intelligence, great potential."
"Take a look at this. It should meet your requirements. You have the authority to buy it. If you were to acquire it from outside, it would take a lot of time," Babata said, pointing to a plant he had picked out.
Below is its introductory information.
【The Myriad Spirit Grass: A very peculiar and rare plant life form born in a special secret realm of the universe. It possesses intelligence no less than that of humans, and its thinking speed far surpasses that of most life forms. It can enhance its strength and potential using resources, just like other plant life forms, and it can also improve itself by comprehending laws and secret techniques, just like humans.】
"This one's good, I'll buy it." Zhou Ze completely ignored the price of 100 million points written below, as well as the extremely demanding cultivation conditions and the fact that many materials were unavailable for purchase.
"Okay, I'll write it down and place the order later!" Babata grinned from ear to ear. It felt so good to be able to buy whatever he wanted. With Luo Feng, he had to be very careful with everything he bought and make the most meticulous plans.
"You can also buy a Star-Eating Grass—" Babata pulled up another picture and information.
Zhou Ze looked over.
[Star-Eating Grass: A very peculiar plant life form that grows in space. It is born on an ordinary mineral planet and, as it grows, automatically devours various metals, rocks, and other materials on the planet.]
Babata explained, "Plant life comes in many forms; some are primarily defensive, some are primarily offensive, and some combine both."
And other types, like the All-Purpose Grass we just mentioned, are quite special, combining both offensive and defensive capabilities—"
"The Star-Eating Grass is an aggressive plant life form, known as 'the most resilient aggressive plant life form.' Of course, there are also some rare and unique plant life forms that are generally not available for purchase. However, even so, the Star-Eating Grass is definitely worth buying!"
"Moreover, each plant only requires 30 Mixed Yuan Units, which is very cheap, but subsequent cultivation is still very expensive ———"
Zhou Ze said calmly, "I bought them. Whether it's Star-Eating Grass or the Myriad Spirit Grass from before, get them all, cultivate them to the highest quality standards. You keep an eye on the resource purchases for me."
"Okay." Babata was overjoyed and said again, "Zhou Ze, you can buy one of these too."
The image on the screen changed, and a peculiar metallic shape appeared before Zhou Ze's eyes.
"What is this?" Zhou Ze asked.
Swipe down on the Babata control screen for a basic introduction.
"This is called 'Bosh,' a metallic life form. Actually, it's a very peculiar life form in the universe. It can fuse with its master like the Moyun Vine, enhancing its defensive capabilities and even its soul defense!"
"And it can also reflect all kinds of enemy attacks. As long as it doesn't exceed the enemy's defense limit, it can reflect them back. It's absolutely outrageous!"
"It costs more to cultivate than the Thousand-Vine Star-Eating Grass, but it's definitely worth every penny!"
Zhou Ze didn't hesitate; money talks. "Fine, I'll buy it. After it's bound to me, you can train it for me."
"Don't worry, I, the devil Babata, have it all covered, hahaha!" Babata was overjoyed.
She now enjoys watching the weak grow step by step, just like Zhou Ze and Luo Feng, and Thor is another example. She has watched them grow up before her very eyes.
The success rate of cultivating the three relatively rare life forms, namely, Wanling Grass, Shixing Grass, and Boshi, at the highest level would be absolutely beyond imagination!
Take the Thousand Vine Star-Eating Grass cultivated to the highest standards as an example. Once it breaks through the Immortal realm, it directly reaches the peak of the King realm. Even when facing human powerhouses at the limit of the King realm, it can still have a certain advantage!
"Babata, pick out some powerful, one-time-use treasures for me, the kind that can threaten immortal gods. Things like the Myriad Spirit Grass are useless now," Zhou Ze said calmly.
"Knock knock knock knock—..—"
Babata laughed and said, "I've already thought about it. I've been pondering it ever since I left Chaos City."
Zhou Ze chuckled: "You rascal—"
"Hehe—" Babata chuckled cutely.
"This is a V-1129 model Vulcan Source Crystal, a low-grade Vulcan Source Crystal. Its explosive power is equivalent to the self-destruction of an ordinary fire immortal god; even a regular immortal would be easily killed by it!"
"The power is too low, hmm—buy me another Fire God Source Crystal that's comparable to a 'Primary King-level Self-Destruction'!" Zhou Ze said casually.
"Huh?" Babata looked confused, not because this level of Vulcan Source Crystal required 4 million points per crystal: "Is it necessary?"
"With a Vulcan Source Crystal of this level, if you really mess with an enemy of this kind, you won't even have a chance to use it effectively."
"Just buy it, we don't lack these points." Zhou Ze glanced at Babata: "I'll take one Vulcan Source Crystal that can kill a Marquis-level cultivator."
"Whatever you want—..." Babata muttered, "Anyway, you're rich, so you can do whatever you want."
"Oh right, since we've bought the Vulcan Source Crystal, let's buy a few more Skeletons too. That way, we can use the Puppet to release the Vulcan Source Crystal, which is safer," Babata chuckled. "Perfect, prepare a few high-grade Skeletons for me as well!"
Zhou Ze looked at Babata, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "Babata, can we buy the Heart of Evolution?"
Babata paused, then said somewhat awkwardly, "That thing is too expensive—"
The difficulty of cultivating and evolving intelligent life is extremely high. Unless one obtains an "Evolutionary Heart" and integrates it into a metal body, and then allows an intelligent life form to reside in it, the intelligent life form will be 100% integrated with the metal body.
It's as if the soul corresponds to the body.
Intelligent life will also possess the most precious physical body—an evolved form!
Once the intelligent life form is 100% integrated with the body, the clarity of its perception of the laws of the universe will also be improved, at least reaching the level comparable to that of an ordinary human powerhouse. Those who have not evolved their bodies, like "Babata", may be able to barely cultivate and comprehend, but they will never become immortal even after billions of years.
It can be said that only with the Heart of Evolution can intelligent life be qualified to become a true powerhouse of the mechanical race.
In addition, as cultivation progresses, the bodies of mechanical race powerhouses will be continuously strengthened, and their flexibility, toughness, and other aspects will become very perfect, almost indistinguishable from the bodies of real flesh and blood life forms.
The problem is that only the Machine Race possesses the Heart of Evolution. It is the most important and core treasure of the Machine Race. Therefore, the Machine Race has very strict control over the Heart of Evolution, which makes it extremely difficult for humans, demons, and many other races to purchase one!
Each Heart of Evolution costs hundreds of billions of Chaos Units, almost the entire fortune of an immortal deity sealed in the earth.
Unless they are those who regard the intelligent life forms that accompany them as brothers in life and death, and those super strong individuals have enormous wealth, no one would be willing to buy an evolution heart.
Even Babata never dared to dream of it. Even though Zhou Ze now has a massive amount of points, hundreds of billions is still too much.
"It's alright, can you buy one?" Zhou Ze asked calmly. "If you can, I'll buy one!"
Babata said weakly, "Your current apparent authority is only that of a universe-level member of the Primordial Secret Realm. There are many things you cannot buy. Generally, you need to become an Immortal to fully unlock your authority."
Zhou Ze smiled slightly, pinched Babata's little face and said, "Go to the back office and apply. I'm sure you're already eager to do it in my name."
Babata lowered his head, his index fingertips constantly tapping together: "Forget it, it's too expensive, and even 10 billion might not be enough to buy it!"
Zhou Ze laughed and said, "Babata, I'm not just doing this for you, I'm doing it for myself, hehe—"
Babata was taken aback at first, then put his hands on his hips and glared at Zhou Ze: "Zhou Ze, you're a complete freak! You even prey on intelligent life forms!"
