Having said that, she turned back to her own business behind the counter, with no intention of showing Song Chi around or introducing anything.

Song Chi found this a bit strange, but then he remembered the value of the goods in the store, and thought that if this woman really was the owner, given the funds on her, this kind of behavior was quite normal.

He made his way to the area of strange objects and shipborne components, carefully examining them.

From a distance, he hadn’t seen everything in these two areas, but now that he was closer, Song Chi realized that his previous judgment had been rather conservative.

There were over sixty items in these two areas, with the majority being strange objects that could not be transformed into shipborne components—there were as many as forty of them, while there were just over twenty shipborne components.

Of the forty strange objects, four were of purple quality, more than ten were of blue quality, while among the shipborne components, there was one of purple quality, and four of blue quality; the rest were of white quality.

Song Chi first paid attention to the shipborne components area. After a careful look, he frowned—among the twenty-odd shipborne components, there were only four cannons and secondary cannons. One of them was a blue quality main cannon, the attributes of which were not even as good as the particle beam cannon mounted on the Cang Qiong, lacking any additional features.

The three white quality ones were not even worth mentioning, as they didn’t meet Song Chi’s requirements at all.

Therefore, Song Chi could only control the combat robot to move into the area of strange objects.

He scanned the items, and this time there were quite a few with decent attributes.

[Strange Object: Cold Abyss Wind Spirit]

[Quality: Purple]

[Can Evolve: {Cold Wind Totem}]

[Note: A wind-spiritual essence, bred over ten thousand years in the extreme cold abyss, it has a special use.]

…

[Strange Object: Nine Heavens Cloud Essence]

[Quality: Purple]

[Can Evolve: None]

[Note: The cloud essence bred at the summit of the Nine Heavens in Juyun Continent; perhaps the native creatures of Juyun continent know how to use it.]

…

[Strange Object: Asteroid Crystal]

[Quality: Blue]

[Can Evolve: None]

[Note: A substance bred within the core of a nearly ten-thousand-year-old asteroid, very few creatures are able to utilize it.]

…

Each of these strange objects came with a detailed description. The vast majority had no form they could evolve into, and even the few that could weren’t evolving into shipborne components, but into forms unknown to Torch Human Civilization’s domain, with no knowledge on how to utilize them.

Because of this, the value of such strange objects was significantly discounted compared to those of the same rank that could be transformed into shipborne components.

For example, if those four purple quality strange objects could normally be transformed into shipborne components, each one would sell for at least 80,000 to 100,000 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin.

But now, their listed price was uniformly 40,000 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin, which is half the value of normal strange objects of the same quality.

As for why the store was left with so many strange objects that could not be transformed into shipborne components rather than selling them outside Torch Human Civilization’s domain, Guangyuan Floating Land was not far from the nearby Chaotic Star Field, which should have made it quite convenient.

Song Chi had his own guesses about this.

If things went as expected, the owner behind the Chenxing multi-functional store must have tried it, but most likely because the Chaotic Star Field was just too chaotic and with the energy behind the store, it was quite difficult to ensure a perfectly safe transaction.
