He Became A Monstrous Genius After Obtaining A Time Dilation Artifact-Chapter 185. Arriving in the Astral Empire 1

Staring in the space ring full of gold coins , Kailen couldn’t help but reveal a sparkle in his eyes .

Jackson Bloodfallen stared at him with intrigue.

Kailen sighed in surprise " I don’t know how much this money probably amounts to ,however there’s no way this is a small amount of money"

The Time Dilation Artifact said " Tsk! plot armor. You just earned the fruits of someone’s labor without doing anything. But I gotta say , these pirates are really poor"

Kailen squinted his eyes,ignoring her mean attitude " What do you mean by that?"

" It’s just 100 universe coins"

" Universe coins?"

" Yeah" The time dilation artifact replied " Don’t be surprised. 100,000 Astra is equivalent to 100 universe coins . After being becoming a citizen of the Astral Empire ,convert it into universe coins . That will make transactions more simple for you. You cannot make transactions in the vast universe if your money is in the local currency of an empire. For example, if you want to purchase something in the virtual universe , there’s no way you can do that unless you have converted the money into universe coins. But if you convert the money into universe coins, you can also use it for transactions even in the astral empire "

" Oh. I see" Kailen nodded in understanding.

For once she was being helpful.

"Tsk!" The Time Dilation Artifact snorted " I don’t have time to deal with you, I have a zet Felix series to binge watch"

" This..." Kailen shook his head inwardly ,then ignored her.

Their exchange took only a few seconds, making it impossible for Jackson to notice anything off with Kailen.

" How much is in there?"

Jackson asked just out of curiosity.

" If I convert it ,it will be 100 universe coins "

Jackson nodded " Not bad . When you become an alchemist ,you can easily earn way more than that"

Kailen’s eyes gleamed. Jackson stared at him in amusement " This guy is really a money fanatic"

Kailen said,oblivious to Jackson’s thoughts " No wonder you said you don’t need this storage ring,you are extremely rich"

Jackson chuckled " It’s no big deal to be rich "

" This..." Kailen was short of words. Was this guy humble bragging?

Valarien solar system- The capital of the Astral Empire , Astral Galaxy. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

A few more days had gone by in the blink of an eye.

[Arriving at target destination in a few seconds. Should I prepare for landing,master?]

In the spaceship , the AI informed Jackson.

" Yes"

[ Preparing for landing]

Finally, the spaceship landed at the docks of the Valarien solar system.

Jackson and Kailen stepped out.

Kailen observed the large docks with wonder.

Several thousands of spaceships were packed at various locations at the docks .

AI humanoid personells, alongside severel personells were regulating the arriving of the spaceships .

Various races ,could be seen engaged in conversations with one another.

A human with blue skin could be seen talking to an elf. A treant could be seen talking to a goblin.

This and similar scenes were playing out.

Scenes of reunion and people meeting each other after a long time played out. Some chatted and giggled,some cried, couples kissed.

" Wonderful isn’t it " Jackson muttered.

" I mean for a first timer from a backward planet "

Jackson added.

Kailen sighed . These guys could just not let him have a rest about him being from a backward planet. It really sucked .

" But anyway , this place is amazing. It’s like a scene from a futuristic sci-fi intergalactic movie "

Kailen muttered , completely amazed at the sight before him.

He looked up , observing the large distant star as it shimmered down on all life.

Jackson showed his alchemist batch to the personells taking the dock fees.

Immediately the man saw the rank 2 Alchemist badge , he couldn’t help but reveal a reverential expression.

" Sir ,please "

Kailen in particular couldn’t help but reveal a surprised expression. It seemed the perks of being an alchemist could not be underestimated.

" He’s a rank 2 alchemist?"

" Wow!"

" That’s gold"

" Who is he?"

" I don’t know. But he seems pretty powerful. Even the aura around him is intimidating"

" Yeah. How can an alchemist have serious time for cultivating? He’s pretty much a genius"

" Idiot, he’s probably one of those old foggies. It’s normal for him to be an alchemist ,and have a rank 4 intermediate stage ascendant lifeform strength if he has cultivated for several 100 years"

" That makes sense but still, you say it as if getting to the rank 4 intermediate stage Ascendant level in several 100 years is an easy feat "

Jackson ignored the conversation of the onlookers,as he nodded to the person taking the dock fees , proceeding to take a hover vehicle from his storage ring.

Kailen quickly joined him in the sleek hover vehicle .

It kind of reminded Kailen of the hover vehicles in that interstellar movie he used watch when he was younger, called Stellar Wars or something.

Anyway, the hover vehicle turned into a streak of light and sped off.

Jackson explained " The Valerian solar system spans several hundreds of planets.The capital of the Empire is so large that a single planet cannot contain the population and the bustling life here"

Kailen listened to Jackson, at the same time observing the sleek ,comet like buildings that peered through the horizons .

Several hover vehicles whizzed past them.

So many futuristic things he only thought was possible in science fiction novels were before him.

It was literally wonderful.

Jackson went on ,not minding Kailen’s gaze elsewhere " The branch of the Universe Alchemy Association in the capital ,is on the next planet where we are headed.The capital’s planets are connected via teleportation runes to ensure that travelling is more easier and faster"

Kailen’s horizons had really been broadened this instant.

No wonder Jackson called earth a backward planet. It was no a statement to ridicule and tease him. But rather the natural reaction from seeing how underdeveloped earth was compared to this bustling metropolis.

The capital of this low tier civilisation, the Astral empire was several hundreds of planets, how absurd was that.

Suddenly , a hover vehicle scratched theirs.

A white haired individual could be seen seated int the hover vehicle.

A black haired lady was seated alongside the white haired individual.

" These guys did that on purpose. There’s no way the AI of the hover vehicle will let the vehicle scratch another vehicle unless the owner of the vehicle command the vehicle to do so"

Jackson explained.

He decided to ignore them and focus on where they were headed. He didn’t want to waste anytime.

The white haired young man in the other vehicle was expecting some sort of reaction from the people he had intentionally decided to offend,only to find out sooner or later that they paid him no attention.

" Babe, those fools didn’t take the bait. It looks like we won’t have anyone to bully today" The lady showed a sullen expression.

" Look, don’t worry. I’m gonna teach them a lesson"

The hover vehicle sped up, appearing in front of Jackson’s all of a sudden.

" Yo, how dare you scratch my vehicle . Do you know who I am?. Kneel and kowtow seven times and I will let you go"

He had just passed the rank 1 alchemist exams today at the young age of 45. He was pretty famous?

Today, he had decided to bully a few no names with his girlfriend ,whiles she accompanied him to the next planet for him to take his alchemy badge .

These guys dared to be disrespectful?

Did they not know who they were offending.

Jackson sighed. Kailen observed everything with a curious expression.

He wanted to see how Jackson will handle this one.

" Usually I’d just scare them away with my alchemy badge, as I don’t like needless bloodshed but, I have an idea,one that you’ll also benefit from"

He told Kailen the idea .

Kailen listened intently, as his eyes gleamed with surprise.

Kailen was the one to reply the arrogant young master instead of Jackson.

" Friend , It seems you are the newly announced rank 1 alchemy prodigy. I’m on my way to the next planet to take the alchemy test . How about we have a duel after that to see who’s better. If you win, not only will I hand over this hover vehicle to you, I will also give you all my universe coins.if you lose however ,I get all your money and your hover vehicle "

The white haired gentleman was taken aback by Kailen’s polite communication.

Also this guy was proposing a duel? He was also going to take the alchemy test?

Was this idiot trying to buy time to run away? Did he think he can decieve him?

Since he wanted to play the fool, he would play along. After all, with his 80% purity level, only a few youngsters in the capital would be a match for him. So even if this guy passed the alchemy exams in a way , the probability of being defeated by this guy was best to zero.

" I agree. If you lose, I get your hover vehicle and your universe coins"

Kailen’s eyes gleamed " Jackpot"
