Chapter 11

"Th-this... " Luobi's luck was indeed good, but going to the gemstone gambling street first required a large amount of funds, and their family's current situation couldn't afford any setbacks.

Guan Zhuting hesitated for a moment but still agreed to go to the gemstone gambling street with Luobi. What Luobi decided was not something she could stop.

Luobi had already made a reservation for a hovercar on the interstellar network. When the hovercar arrived to pick them up, the two of them got in and headed to the gemstone gambling street.

There were many people gambling on luck on the gemstone gambling street, including ordinary people dreaming of getting rich, hoping to become wealthy overnight. There were also young masters from noble families looking for entertainment, as well as professional gemstone gamblers. In addition, there were merchants and managers from various family forces actively purchasing raw materials on the gemstone gambling street.

Throughout the entire star system, the gemstone gambling street, like the spirit plant street, had a very booming business.

Luobi rarely came to the gemstone gambling street. As they walked, she looked around. The sound of stone cutting was continuous, getting louder and louder, indicating that someone had cut out high-quality beryl stone. Luobi only glanced at it for a moment before calling Guan Zhuting to go into the shop to select stones.

Luobi did not pay attention to the high-priced raw stones. After a quick tour, she directly checked the low-priced inferior raw stones.

The shop assistant, who had initially greeted them with a smile, now looked disdainful.

"These inferior raw stones have an extremely low yield, and even if they do produce stones, the energy content is not much." Guan Zhuting couldn't help but remind her.

Luobi didn't say anything, just pressed her hand on a good-looking one and concentrated her mental power to secretly investigate. The pile of raw stones was not small, and there were definitely beryl stones inside, but the energy content was very thin. Luobi ignored the raw stones with thin energy content and carefully selected high-quality beryl stone raw stones. However, after a thorough investigation, she didn't find any that satisfied her.

Luobi sighed and turned to leave.

Her plan was simple: to spend the least amount of interstellar currency to gamble for high-quality beryl stones. However, the yield of inferior raw stones was already low, and the probability of getting high-quality beryl stones was even lower. There were hundreds of shops on the gemstone gambling street, and Luobi couldn't investigate each one. Her mental power couldn't afford the strain, so she only investigated the shops that looked promising.

After visiting over ten shops, Luobi's mental power was exhausted, and her head started to hurt. At this moment, a loud commotion came from the stone cutting area, and people immediately rushed over.

"Someone has cut out something good." One person shouted as they ran over.

Guan Zhuting stood on tiptoe to look: "Let's go see."

"No." Seeing someone else cut out something good wouldn't make it hers, so why bother? Luobi frowned, pressed her hand on her forehead, and stared at a shop in front of her for a moment before walking over.

"Let's go inside and take a look!" The shop manager was watching the stone cutting area from the entrance. Seeing a customer, he called them in.

Luobi briefly toured the high-priced raw stone area and then directly headed to the cheapest inferior raw stone area.

The manager did not show any contempt and followed behind Luobi, saying, "These raw stones are cheap, so you can pick several."

Luobi casually selected a few raw stones, placed her hand on them, and released her mental power, but felt nothing. She let out a sigh and touched each one, one by one. Suddenly, when she touched a piece of indigo raw stone, she felt a scorching energy wave. Upon closer investigation, she saw a red glow.

The energy was abundant and red. Could it be a red beryl stone?

Luobi's heart raced. After a brief moment, she picked up the indigo raw stone and fully released her mental power to investigate further.
