Chapter 912 - 591: It’s Just a Matter of Days_3

Nuazai said in an ingratiating manner, "No, no, he wanted to kill me last time because I showed no remorse. Now that I do, I’m sure the Land God will spare my life if Mr. Gu introduces me. Naturally, I will show my appreciation."

Saying this, he glanced to the side.

Li Luo understood and immediately took out an item resembling a crystal box from her suit pocket. Inside, a special substance was quietly placed.

Gu Wei was stunned, "What is this?"

Nuazai proactively introduced, "This is the rarest element in the cosmos, called ’astatine’. It almost doesn’t naturally occur, because even if synthesized, it can only exist for twenty-one point eight minutes in Earth time. Our Martial Hero Race has advanced technology, so we can synthesize and preserve this special element. Of course, because it’s so hard to synthesize, the price is extremely high."

Gu Wei was bewildered after hearing this, "Astatine? Isn’t this thing a naturally radioactive element? Taking it out now, are you trying to kill me?"

"Don’t misunderstand, don’t misunderstand," Nuazai quickly explained, "Astatine is indeed highly radioactive, but our crafted anti-radiation crystal box can control the radiation and won’t affect your body even a bit. You can take this box of astatine and exchange it for a huge sum of money. There are ten grams of astatine here."

Ten grams of astatine?

Honestly, even a person of Gu Wei’s status couldn’t help but breathe heavily upon hearing this amount.

Why?

Because astatine is incredibly precious!

Earth currently isn’t without astatine, it’s just that it only has a mere twenty-five grams.

The saying goes that rarity makes something precious, and with such a small amount of astatine, its price is naturally very expensive.

That’s right, the price of astatine has reached an astonishing sixty billion per gram.

What does ten grams of astatine mean?

It means that with a quick sale, Gu Wei could instantly gain six hundred billion!

Anyone in front of six hundred billion wouldn’t remain indifferent, right?

Gu Wei found it hard to breathe; if he hadn’t known that the high-tech crystal box could prevent radiation leakage, he might suspect that it was astatine’s radiation making him feel this way.

Nuazai temptingly said, "What do you think, Mr. Gu? If you agree to introduce us, these ten grams of astatine are yours."

Gu Wei struggled with his thoughts for a long while, eventually exhaling deeply, "I can’t accept it for now."

Nuazai and Li Luo exchanged a surprised glance.

They hadn’t expected Gu Wei, faced with such a precious element, to be able to resist the temptation.

This made them feel incredibly disappointed. If Gu Wei refused to help introduce them to Lu Li, they really would have to watch helplessly as the Martial Hero Race faced extinction.

Fortunately, Gu Wei changed his tone with his next sentence, "I need to call Mr. Lu first. If he agrees to see you, then I’ll accept your gift."

Nuazai was overjoyed and quickly said, "Okay, okay, okay, please contact the Land God and ask if he’s willing to meet us."

Gu Wei responded with a hum, "Alright, you two wait here for a moment while I make the call."

Nuazai and Li Luo promptly agreed.

Gu Wei stood up and left, pretending to walk out of the room.

In fact, he had already received authorization from Lu Li, and could take Nuazai and Li Luo over at any time.

His actions were merely to give Nuazai and Li Luo an "authentic" sensory experience.

Once outside the door, Gu Wei cast a mysterious glance at Nuazai and Li Luo, thinking to himself that their luck is indeed good. Mr. Lu has already devised a way to resolve the impending siege of the Martial Hero Race by billions of advanced civilizations; soon, there might be an awe-inspiring "fireworks spectacle" in the starry sky.

With this in mind, he couldn’t help but look forward eagerly, longing to witness Lu Li’s universe-shaking feat. Shouldn’t be much longer now, right?

Gu Wei knew the wait wouldn’t be too long, just a matter of days!
