Chapter 177 -177: The Mighty Bishop [Gustav]_1
In the Transcendent World.
There are many neutral organizations.
For these neutral organizations, as long as they do not engage in destructive activities, participate in evil worship gatherings, or organize Transcendents for large-scale actions.
The Three-Eyed God Spiritual Nation will not interfere with their existence.
And the [Star Track Cult] within the Three-Eyed God Spiritual Nation is a very famous neutral organization.
With the development of the Steam Wave Epoch Era.
The Star Track Cult has indeed shown a growing trend and has become a force that cannot be ignored by the Three-Eyed God Spiritual Nation.
The Star Track Cult worships the great “Spirit of Steam and Rails.”
This also gives them a unique advantage in transcendent world navigation.
In acquiring Steam Core, they also have their own unique methods.
And this is one of the reasons Tuck chose the Star Track Cult.
Compared to others who join some mysterious organizations and tend to be passive.
Tuck had complete autonomy in his choice.
Following the man named Elross.
The two stopped in a wider alley behind the market.
“Knock knock knock…” Elross knocked on the door.
The wolf-dog beast head the size of a fist on the door immediately came to life.
Although it was made of bronze, the details were lifelike.
Recognizing Elross and then glancing at Tuck beside him, the wolf-dog beast head finally spoke.
“Lord Gustav is in the midst of alchemy.”
“Just say that a refiner has come, Lord Gustav will understand,” Elross responded immediately.
“A refiner?”
The wolf-dog beast head on the door slightly turned to look at Tuck.
“I heard that a very talented refiner has come to our market, is it him?”

Before Elross could respond.
“Creak~ah~” The wooden copper-bound door slowly opened.
Behind the door was a swirling endless darkness.
“Come in!”
A voice sounded.
Tuck looked around before following Elross inside.
This entire immense castle was a magical creature.
Nurturing a magical creature to such an immense size, without a hundred years of time, that would be impossible.
Such a level of strength, at the very least, indicates involvement in multiple expeditions to the transcendent world and even the expansion expeditions of the Divine Spirit Empire.
And, it was even possible that they had participated in the God War.
If this lord was old enough, that is.
Tuck remembered that the last God War was just about a hundred and twenty years ago.
Passing through the curtain that was like darkness itself.
What came into view was a rather clean and tidy living room.
Sofas, coffee tables, ornamental plants decorations, ash gothic style murals, and some glass vessels containing scaled-down versions of ash gothic buildings.
Tuck had heard that on the southern side of the Duchy Cerion, in places not illuminated by the Dark Sun, they were very fond of the bizarre and abstract twisted style of ash gothic.
In fact, Tuck, who had fought within those houses, didn’t like it all that much.
An important point to note beyond this was.
The air was filled with a strange burnt smell.
Upon smelling it, Tuck immediately knew it was likely due to an uncontrollable violent reaction between some metal material and leather material during tempering, releasing a massive amount of violent Origin Energy that caused the leather and the metal to completely shatter and spoil.
A hazy silhouette emerged from the darkness of the curtain.
“Are you the prodigious refining expert from St. Land that’s been the talk of the town lately?” the voice of this shadowy figure or perhaps some Transcendent State was exceptionally ethereal and melodic.
The belatedly aware Tuck doffed his hood and bowed to the shadowy figure before responding, “I’m not sure if I’m the one you’re speaking of.”
“But if there is not a second Transcendent in the St. Land Market selling perfect second rank and third rank refined materials, then I suppose you must be talking about me.”
The hazy figure, Gustav, nodded slightly.
“Our marketplace at the Star Track Cult has many star track booths.”
“You can understand that these special booths are reserved in our market specifically for those powerful and skilled Transcendents who are willing to collaborate with our Star Track Cult as alchemists, pharmacists, and the like.”
“Here, we will not inquire about your identity, whether you are a werewolf or a member of the Blood Race, whether you’re a core member of the Dark Sun Church, we won’t care, whether you’re a devout follower of St. Land, we also won’t be biased.”
“Even if you are the Dark Sun Saint Heir or Blasphemer Tuck, we will not meddle.”
“As long as you are willing to establish a booth here.”
“We are willing to collaborate deeply and ensure your absolute safety.”
As the Sixth-Rank bishop level warrior, Gustav explained.
Tuck’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Tuck liked this style of chaotic neutrality, neither dark nor light, and positioned between the shadows of light and darkness.
Moreover, from the tone of the other party’s explanation.
Tuck detected that a refiner seemed to be even more popular than he had imagined.
But on further thought, Tuck also gradually understood.
Any Transcendent with even a bit of strength or wealth would try every means to obtain Leader-Level Material, supplementing it with Elite materials.
But the ferocity of Leader-Level Material.
That was truly Transcendent Poison.
Soul going out of control, Transcendent ecology mutating, sequence collapsing, flesh disintegrating.
Many Transcendents died on the path to elevation.
At such times, the role of top refiners became perfectly clear.
The refinement skills of a Refiner determine the safety level of the Transcendent’s ascension when consuming that material.
Not to mention the peril of Leader-Level Material.
To achieve a safety level with Elite-Level Material alone
is already equivalent to being a “Refining Expert.”
It is something that many, many Transcendents would eagerly desire.
Moreover, the degree to which Tuck refined exceeded safety and reached an almost perfect Harmless Level.
Lost in thought, Tuck slowly said,
“Actually, I don’t lack such a channel for selling resources. In fact, I’m here selling resources more in the hope of collecting the ones I need for myself.”
Upon hearing the hidden meaning in Tuck’s words, Gustav scrutinized Tuck for a moment before speaking again, “The Star Track Market’s warehouses have also collected quite a few resources; perhaps they have what you need.”
“Third Rank, Light Lord-Level soul or Origin Energy materials,” Tuck stated succinctly.
After a brief contemplation, Gustav shook his head and said,
“Lord-Level materials are too rare.”
“Even our market doesn’t have them.”
“The best Third Rank material we have on hand is a Level 39 Semi-Lord Blue Whale Ocean Crystal.”
Tuck quickly weighed his options.
“A Level 39 Semi-Lord Ocean Crystal, that’s on the same level as the Mountain Bear I absorbed when I ascended to the Second Rank,” he thought.
“The material is good indeed, but…”
Tuck lifted his head and looked at Gustav, who was of Sixth-Rank Bishop Level.
“Do you have any Leader-Level materials of the Light?” he asked.
“Yes, but the Light is not very thorough!” Gustav replied after some thought.
Tuck: “…”
“Materials from the Sun Eagles that like to bask in the sunlight at the floating border in the World’s Antarctic region,” Gustav explained.
With that explanation, Tuck understood.
Whether from Hilor, the Dwarf Barkin, or even the materials Tuck himself inquired about in the Underground Black Market, a portion was Sun Eagle Crystal Material.
This kind of material possesses scorching Light Power.
But it lacks divine power.
Just as Gustav said, there is Light, but it’s not very thorough.
Even so,
Tuck had only heard of such materials.
He hadn’t actually obtained any yet.
Such rare Leader-Level materials with unique attributes can’t simply be bought with money; most are exchanged through bartering.
The rarity of Leader-Level materials is not a mere exaggeration.
If Tuck wasn’t identified as a top-tier Refiner with astonishing strength,
Barkin would have definitely been unwilling to part with the Third Rank Lord-Level Dragon Crystal material.
This Bishop Level Warrior is willing to offer Third Rank Semi-Lord material, obviously seeing Tuck’s status as a top Refiner.
“I need the Semi-Lord Level Blue Whale Ocean Crystal and a piece of Leader-Level Sun Eagle material,” Tuck said.
“Roughly, how much Magic Gold would that be?” In the midst of his thoughts, Tuck looked at Gustav, the Sixth-Rank Bishop Level Warrior.
Tuck needed Light System materials.
But it wasn’t that they had to have divine attributes.
If they had divine attributes, it would certainly help Tuck conjure his Angel Sequence Abilities better.
Without them, Tuck, using the Angel Sequence Attributes of the Steam Tower, would still be able to manifest potent Angel Sequence Abilities.
The Sun Eagle’s material could serve as a reserve.
“It’s free!” Gustav answered calmly, responding to Tuck’s query.
Upon hearing this, Tuck knew that the other party was planning to offer him the most costly deal.
“What do you need me to do?” Tuck asked knowingly.
Gustav smiled.
He had begun to take a liking to the Refiner and aspiring Third-Rank Transcendent Wizard in front of him.
“Over the next three months, you can consign or use the booth we have prepared here for you,” he proposed.
“Our professional sales staff will help you sell these top-tier Elite materials.”
“To ensure the extent and depth of our cooperation,” he continued,
“You’ll need to produce at least two Leader-Level materials every Grey Night cycle.”
“Don’t worry, we’ll protect your interests.”
“We will offer a higher rate than what those Dwarves give you.”
With this explanation, Tuck had a clear understanding of many things.
As of now,
Forces from all sides were converging on St. Land.
Just two days ago, the Steam Daily reported that groups of talented and elite Transcendents, both low- and mid-tier, from various city-states, had begun to settle en masse in St. Land.
Among these Transcendents from various city-states were some with impressive First-Rank, Second-Rank, and Third-Rank Transcendent Talents.
At such a time, word of top-tier Elite materials spreading in the Underground City’s Star Track Market
would naturally attract numerous wealthy Transcendents.
Then the Star Track Market wouldn’t worry about not making a profit.
Having thought through all this, Tuck gave a slight nod.
“If that’s the case, then let’s collaborate happily!”
“Collaboration agreed!”
Within the Magic Castle, the two formally reached an agreement.
