”So it’s really that convenient. Then, what do I have to give in return for your help?” Jia Yan asked.

”No need, everything is free. We earn a commission from transactions you make with the city and a fixed salary. If it’s your first time here, you can think of me as a guide; it’s all free!” Little Seal said in a captivating voice. Through her words, Jia Yan could somewhat discern that she must be considered a delicate and beautiful young lady among her own species.

Unfortunately, Jia Yan was unable to appreciate such beauty.

”Okay, please explain everything to me. It’s my first time here, and even if there’s no deal made, please just don’t look down on me, haha!”

Jia Yan laughed forcibly in a grand manner.

”Of course, Lord, I am honored to serve you.” Little Seal then activated the flying device beneath her and started flying in front of Jia Yan, explaining everything about Fire Energy City as they proceeded.

As Jia Yan listened, he looked around and noticed many other Strong Ones who had come here also had what were called ’little secretaries.’

Those whose power hadn’t reached the Sky Level were less fortunate; they walked alone without any little secretaries to attend to them.

”Lord, as the only city at the foot of Fire Energy Mountain, the main trade item here is the energy minerals from Fire Energy Mountain. However, our city has now developed a full range of commercial methods. We have the largest raw materials market on the entire planet, a vast market for small goods, and some high-tech products. May I ask which type of goods interests you, Lord?”

”I’d like to know about Fire Energy Ore prices,” Jia Yan said gravely.

The Fire Energy Ore he mentioned was the Earth Level variant of volcanic magma, which he had used before in a product refined through a secondary extraction.

This was his ultimate goal. If the price of Fire Energy Ore was not high and could be resolved with money, he would naturally prefer to settle it with money, especially since he wasn’t an invincible figure here. Without having recovered energy or even undergone the next transformation, he had too many concerns!

”Lord, Fire Energy Ore is our flagship product here; one Kurilla only costs seventy-five Luoz Deluxe Empire Dollars,” Little Seal said, seemingly implying that the price was quite low.

Still, Jia Yan sighed inwardly.

Before coming here, he had already converted the resources and money scavenged by Kaz over the years. At this moment, the money he could utilize amounted to 300,000 Luoz Deluxe Empire Dollars.

A Kurilla, in this Starfield, is a unit of mass, roughly equivalent to, or even lighter than, a gram on Earth. By such calculations, the money and goods he had could barely buy some Fire Energy Ore.

And with secondary extraction, while the technology required wasn’t highly advanced, the end product would diminish in quality further, leaving him with even less usable material!

The magma energy contributed by those people at Kaz’s base, Jia Yan now realized how much effort they had exerted.

Jia Yan fell into contemplation and did not respond.

Little Seal wasn’t in a hurry and continued to introduce the surroundings to Jia Yan.

Fire Energy City was a typical city that never slept. Even when dusk finally fell, the city was still brightly lit, almost identical to daytime, a testament to the aliens’ lighting technology being far more advanced than that of Earth people.

However, it was evident that Little Seal couldn’t last that long. She handed Jia Yan an electronic business card.

”Lord, it’s my off time now. If you have any needs, you can make purchases through me. I’ll try my best to streamline the process and get you the minimum discount,” she said.

After she spoke, she waved goodbye to Jia Yan and left.

Jia Yan toyed with the electronic business card using his Brainwave Power, considering it extremely small, as he walked among the towering buildings that stretched up to four or five thousand meters, lost in thought.

This city was certainly far beyond what Earth people could imagine, but having seen so much already, Jia Yan was hardly surprised anymore.

In skyscrapers exceeding four or five thousand meters, various industries thrived. Fire Energy City was surely initially famous because of Fire Energy Mountain, but it had now truly developed into a highly bustling composite city.

The aliens living near Fire Energy Mountain were not fearful at all, let alone worried about volcanic eruptions, as those were already controlled by alien technology. Even if not controlled, most of the inhabitants here were Strong Ones; the minimal force from an eruption posed no threat to them. Even ordinary creatures had many kinds of technological equipment, unafraid of minor natural disasters like volcanic eruptions.

”Come, come! This building houses Tianlong Star’s most beautiful females that all males adore! Lord, won’t you come in? There’s a fascinating mysterious performance tonight,” a peculiar turtle, looking like a ’pimp,’ with a hard shell on his back, mysteriously approached Jia Yan trying to pull him into a large building.

”Not interested,” Jia Yan coldly shook his head and walked away.

This really was something else, Jia Yan couldn’t believe that so many various species had a unified aesthetic standard, liking a so-called ’female princess’?

It was utterly ridiculous. Jia Yan thought that it was good enough that he didn’t throw up at the sight.

That was just an interlude. Jia Yan, following the city map, came to what was called the ’Free Market’ outside.

Even though it was nighttime, the market was still brightly lit and bustling with people coming and going.

However, Jia Yan didn’t see any powerful beings here, so he squeezed in. His enormous frame on the streets suddenly seemed like a mountain, covering the sky for the surrounding creatures!

”This place is called the Free Market, but such places often have a dark presence...”

Jia Yan looked at everything in front of him with a sense of exploration.

Since there was nothing gained in the city for now, wandering around such a place wasn’t a waste of time.
