"Twenty standard units of star iron, thank you …"
In the middle of the night, Gu Nan walked out of the rare metal shop alone, cursing the price of the last material in his heart.
His work as a personal trainer was calculated by the number of sessions. He had received three sessions of training in advance from Jelly Wang before he came to buy star iron.
Jelly Wang was straightforward and agreed without hesitation. In fact, if Gu Nan could help him get rid of the "scourge" Xu Feiyan, not to mention this small amount of salary, he was even willing to double it.
However, all the money Gu Nan had on him was only enough to buy twenty units of the material.
"To purify star iron, at least half of it will be consumed … I don't know how many times it will be used in the end." Gu Nan cursed in his heart.
He found a reason to postpone the training of Xu Feiyan to the next time. It was also somewhat selfish, because he was in a hurry to buy star iron and search for free world missions.
With his current 48 sin points, as long as he did one more mission, there was a high chance that he could break through the 50 mark.
Once he became a Transcendent, he would have the capital to settle down in the Astral World.
When he returned to the hidden hut that Gu Nianzhi had provided for him, there were already two people waiting there. As soon as they saw Gu Nan, they came up to him and said, "Mr. Gu, Miss wants to take Miss Bai back."
Gu Nan looked into the room, Bai Luoluo was lying in the culture chamber, her whole body soaked in green nutrient solution.
The injuries on her body had basically recovered, and there was not a trace of injury on her face.
She was sent to the Immortal and Demon World by Gu Nan after she fainted, so her body was naturally left in the Astral World. Previously, Gu Nan wanted to protect the coordinates of the Immortal and Demon World and personally guided her to reincarnate, but now it didn't matter.
"En, you can bring her back." So Gu Nan nodded, "Tell Gu Nian, if there are any changes in her, inform me immediately."
With regards to the "incident", Gu Nan would definitely not take it lightly.
"Yes."
…
After sending off Bai Luoluo, Gu Nan took out the Star Iron that he had just obtained. He placed it in a jade container and placed it on the flame.
Star Iron was a very special kind of metal. It had to be stored in cold storage. It would melt into a liquid with just a little bit of heat, and it would quickly vaporize if the temperature was just a little bit higher.
The flame Gu Nan used was also very special. It was ignited by a special fuel, Snow Congealing Ointment, which could control the temperature and keep the Star Iron in a liquid state.
This step was quite smooth, and he succeeded in a short while. Gu Nan then threw in some golden powder.
The golden powder was the fine gold used as an absorbent. As soon as it entered the liquid, the entire liquid began to shrink rapidly. The original black color also began to rapidly turn into gold.
"It's done … it's not that hard." Gu Nan heaved a sigh of relief.
The entire purification process took less than two minutes, but the technical content was not simple. At least, even an official alchemist would not be able to pick out Gu Nan's mistakes.
After all, he had practiced this many times in the World of Immortals and Demons.
The final result was similar to what Gu Nan had expected. Twenty units of Star Iron could only produce eight units of Star Gold. The purification rate was only 40%.
However, this could not be helped. Gu Nan quickly calmed himself down and began to immerse himself in the drawing of the formation pattern.
The method that Qin Xuanji provided him to accept the task was to find a platform that publicized the task to the outside world, and then accept and complete the task in a private manner.
The existence of the world's task was very strange. They were produced by the world's will, but they also drifted away from the world's will. There must be a professional "translator" to let the cultivator understand the meaning.
As the business of reincarnation became popular, organizations that specialized in translation gradually formed and released tasks to the outside world to benefit from it.
Completing the world's task could indeed benefit, but most of these benefits were obtained by the translators. For example, Ming Lou and the organization that Gu Nan was about to contact.
As the inscription on the ground lit up, a golden light gradually emerged. A line of text was directly reflected in his line of sight.
"Welcome to the Astral Gate. Newcomer, please leave your code name."
"Evil God."
"Code name confirmed. You currently have Level E authority. Please check the available tasks."
Astral Gate, this was the name of this organization. As an organization that was open to all reincarnators, their docking system was very complete. It could even be completed by Gu Nan alone.
Gu Nan used his consciousness to click on the task list. However, there was no series of tasks appearing. Instead, another sentence appeared.
"Detected that this is your first time accepting a task. You will be randomly assigned five available tasks. You will need to wait for one day to refresh the task."
"Detected that this is your first time accepting a task. You will need to pay five units of Star Gold as a deposit. The deposit will be returned after the first task is completed."
Two consecutive notifications popped up, causing Gu Nan's eyelids to twitch.
He could only choose five tasks at a time. The cooldown period for resetting the task was one day. He also needed to pay five units of Star Gold as a deposit.
One unit of Star Gold was only enough to open the Astral Gate twice. In the end, it asked for five units at once. Fortunately, it was only a deposit.
In order to earn sin points, Gu Nan couldn't care so much anymore. He immediately started to check the tasks.
In Gu Nan's eyes, the difficulty of the five tasks was not high. They were all small-scale tasks. However, one of them attracted his attention at first glance.
Task Objective: Protect the White Dew Goddess.
Task Plane: Foreign World, White Fog Plane.
Task Accepted Count: 3
Task Details: Head to the plane and protect the target for five days. This task is a team task. The maximum number of people is four.
Gu Nan frowned. A team task with a count of 3 meant that three people had already accepted the task. However, someone did not agree and wanted to wait for one more person.
After all, the more people there were, the higher the chance of completing the task.
What attracted Gu Nan's attention the most was the task itself.
"White Dew Goddess … This is a character in the game!" Gu Nan couldn't help but recall his past life. He remembered the time he struggled in the game.
There was even a dungeon to protect the White Dew Goddess in the game. He just didn't know if it was the same in this life.
Unexpectedly seeing a familiar task, Gu Nan didn't hesitate and chose to accept it.
"Task accepted successfully. The number of people has reached the limit. Please start the task as soon as possible."
After accepting the task, the light of the Astral Gate dimmed. After all, this was only a platform to accept tasks and not a reincarnation circle.
Gu Nan activated the reincarnation ritual beside him. He entered the coordinates of the plane and the reincarnation ritual appeared again.
Gu Nan's body was stored in the endless void. His soul was slowly pulled out and entered the reincarnation gate.
