Chapter 267: Chapter 250: Undersea Collection
"Sure, the environment of the hotel is remarkable, but the hotel is already seized," one person said with a frown, prompting others to nod in agreement.
"Don\'t you all understand? The hotel is too good, and even Lin Yun\'s Qingyun Company is too profitable, provoking the greed of some people. I just checked online and found that Qingyun Company\'s products are of high quality. The company\'s closure has triggered public anger. I believe there will soon be a resolution to this matter," Lang Jiuping explained as he shook his head.
"He seems unperturbed, purchasing large quantities of high-level spiritual items at such a time. He likely has a plan in mind. I don\'t think we should be concerned. Even if we buy a high-level spiritual item in our circle, we will not lose much, it is more likely to just cause some trouble. I remember Old Wang found a high-level spiritual item recently.
Little Eight, could you contact him and see if we can buy it?" Lang Jiuping suggested after a pause.
"Next, we should stay at this hotel to experience its various amenities thoroughly. Last time, we only dined at the Qingyun Restaurant and couldn\'t stay the night due to full occupancy. I recall their massage tubs and chairs being commendable, along with various scene projections... now that there\'s no fight for rooms, and they\'re free, we can pick a good room.
A decent room here costs tens of thousands per day, a luxury we usually couldn\'t afford..." Following this, Lang Jiuping looked at the others with a smile.
"Sure, boss," the crowd nodded unanimously.
Lang Jiuping commanded high respect among his affiliates.
"It will be interesting to experience a room costing tens of thousands per day..." some people chuckled.
Half an hour later,
"Damn, this massage bathtub is too comfortable, I feel as though all the fatigue from the past few days has dissipated," one of them exclaimed from a room.
"The massage chair also feels comfortable. Don\'t they sell these chairs here? I want to buy one for home..."
"This scene projection is astoundingly real, and the air here is so fresh... truly impressive. I\'ve never seen such great projection technology, even the best international technology is just like this, isn\'t it..."
"No wonder it was difficult to get a room last time, with luxuries like this, who wouldn\'t want to stay here every day if they had the money..."
"A few tens of thousands per day, that hardly seems expensive..."
Gasping sounds resonated from all around.
One hour later,
"Alright, I take back my previous doubts. Lin Yun, with his top-tier hotel and technologies, would barely consider conning us..."
"Now I understand why powerful forces were craving after Qingyun Company... just this hotel itself is worthy of their desire..." Lang Jiuping exclaimed.
...
About an hour and twenty minutes later, Lin Yun\'s hovercar finally arrived at the Island Country\'s target city.
"The round trip will almost waste three hours..." Lin Yun shook his head.
At this moment, he was more determined to replace his current vehicle once he had more Spirit Crystals.
The current speed was too slow; a lot of time was squandered on the road.
He could already acquire more than 300 Spirit Crystals daily in Shen City.
Over the long term, the Spirit Crystals he wasted would accumulate.
Although the bustling city he was in was home to numerous people, and the Cosmic Trading System quickly yielded a high number of Spirit Crystals, even surpassing that of Shen City in some aspects,
"It\'s still a waste..." murmured Lin Yun.
Because he was going to disable the Spirit Energy absorption function of the Cosmic Trading System and commence the device\'s Spirit Energy absorption.
With this in mind, Lin Yun started operations.
He\'d turned off and turned on successfully within a few seconds. The device had already been paired with Lin Yun\'s Cosmic Trading System and had incorporated the newly acquired second-level spirituality. Immediately, the balance of Lin Yun\'s Cosmic Trading System swelled at an even faster pace.
"As expected, the device can cover the same range of twenty million people. The effect of the second-level spirituality is not inferior to the one I gained earlier..." Lin Yun muttered with a faint smile.
This was indeed good news, especially the last point. The difference between a 30% amplification effect and a 50% amplification effect was remarkable.
About ten minutes later, Lin Yun found a good spot and started burying the device because he hadn\'t observed any anomalies.
Soon, Lin Yun started his return journey to Shen City.
"Now, just with these two devices alone, I get nearly 1,400 Spirit Crystals daily. Adding the Spirit Crystals I get through the Cosmic Trading System in Shen city, that amounts to over 1,700..."
In the flying car, Lin Yun smiled.
Over 1,700...this number was too overwhelming...
Plus, the Spirit Crystals he got from daily exchanges of ample amounts of Huaxia Currency for resources, he could obtain close to 3,000 Spirit Crystals per day.
The larger a person\'s capacity, the larger their ambitions tend to grow.
At this moment, Lin Yun\'s heart stirred with desire, he even pondered about severing ties with the Lu and Mie Families.
The assets of these two families were massive, and they possessed some resource depots, if he were to plunder these two families, he could acquire many more Spirit Crystals.
Then, even if Huaxia truly wielded some formidable power against him, he would still have the strength to resist.
However, Lin Yun quickly suppressed this notion.
Unless necessary, he would not act this way.
Many owners of the Cosmic Trading System had such thoughts and then met their ruin. Although most owners had no issues, he would rather play it safe.
Because, the circumstances on Earth differed greatly from most places, having abundant spiritual energy resources.
Most importantly, he already had a larger plan in hand.
In recent days, some of his underwater research devices had discovered areas rich in resources, and he planned to purchase some equipment from the Cosmic Trading System and start extracting resources.
In the past few days, in order to buy new professional equipment for absorbing and refining spiritual energy, he had been saving up Spirit Crystals rather than spending them. Now, this task had been accomplished, with over 2,000 Spirit Crystals left.
Additionally, in the following days, he would be able to gain two to three thousand Spirit Crystals daily, which meant he could go ahead with this plan.
"Resource gatherers that can withstand deep-sea pressure, this is the one. Eight hundred Spirit Crystals a unit, let\'s start with purchasing two…"
Lin Yun had a clear goal for the equipment, and promptly placed an order on the Cosmic Trading System.
This piece of equipment was very powerful, each resource gatherer could cover a stretch of a kilometer in every direction, extracting all targeted resources in its range within a day...
Speaking of resource gatherers, Star Blue had once mentioned to Lin Yun that in case one day he leaves his civilization to navigate among the stars.
Resource gathering equipment is of utmost importance.
Otherwise, you might chance upon an abundance of resources but stay helpless, unable to harvest them swiftly, feeling tremendously anxious.

The universe is mysterious and in a constant state of change.
At such moments, time is of the essence.
Therefore, it\'s necessary to purchase an efficient resource extraction equipment, to be able to discover resources and gather them quickly and decisively...
With the time saved, you may possibly find even more resources.
When Star Blue embarked on his journey in the cosmos, his spaceship was procured at the cost of 100,000 Spirit Crystals, which was a lower-tier spaceship of a tier-two civilization. Though not very powerful, he didn\'t plan on adventuring too far.
The resource gathering equipment he bought cost 80,000 Spirit Crystals, demonstrating the magnitude of the investment.
The outcome was obviously satisfying. Most celestial bodies floating in the cosmos were not that large. Upon discovering some resources, Star Blue could gather them in a very short time.
Furthermore, by spending a certain amount of Spirit Crystals, a significant improvement could be noticed in the coverage area of the equipment. This was why Lin Yun didn\'t rush to purchase this kind of equipment.
Becuase, the difference between the device bought for 800 Spirit Crystals and the one bought for 400 Spirit Crystals was not just twice but even more in terms of the coverage area.
Gathering the set resources clean within a day in an area stretching one kilometer around the equipment was efficient enough.
He bought two devices that could gather resources simultaneously from two different locations.
As they neared Shen City, Lin Yun boarded the submarine he had previously bought and dove into the sea, heading towards a resource-rich area.
Because the probes he had released earlier were in this vicinity and had detected resource-rich areas nearby.
Lin Yun swiftly arrived at his destination.
Clad in a diving suit, walking on the seabed, inspecting his surroundings, Lin Yun soon set up a piece of equipment. This equipment was neither too small nor too big, with a core that was a large sphere about ten meters in diameter. The device was black all over, and equipped with a number of long mechanical arms. Altogether, it resembled a massive squid.
The seabed was already dimly lit, and the black device, settled at the bottom of the sea, seemed to blend perfectly into its surroundings.
Subsequently, based on the data collected over the past few days and the instructions for the device\'s setup, Lin Yun started to designate the resources to be gathered.
He decided not to gather certain resources that held little value and which might significantly disrupt the ecosystem after extraction.
