Chapter 78: "A Testimony of Friendship"

And the jade box was casually placed on the table by Loren just like that.Loren began using his own spiritual energy to sense the necklace in his hand.

After a while, Loren nodded with satisfaction.

The defensive power was indeed quite good...

In Loren's own perception, this necklace seemed to have no weaknesses, like an indestructible piece of space.

"How do I use it?" Loren looked up and asked.

"Use your spiritual energy to weave a pattern that only you know, then imprint it onto the necklace. After that, only you will be able to use it."

"Unlike spatial storage devices produced in other star domains within the Federation, the ones produced in our Eastern Star Domain all have this ownership recognition mode."

The young man explained proudly.

"If lost, how difficult is it to crack?" Loren stared at the necklace in his hand and asked meaningfully.

"Well... To take out the items inside, you would need a Legendary-tier Superhuman with powerful spiritual energy to erase the spiritual energy you left on it."

"And according to the calculations of the person who made it, the shortest time required for that would be seven days..." The young man stated the maximum anti-theft time limit of this necklace.

"Seven days? That's enough..." Loren murmured to himself in his heart.

Then, Loren directly used his own spiritual energy to weave a pattern of a raven wearing a hat and imprinted it onto the ruby on the necklace.

After putting on the necklace, Loren sensed the space inside it.

This was an independent space, and the spatial barriers surrounding it were quite sturdy.

The internal space was about 500 square meters, with a height of roughly 10 meters. This size was also sufficient for me to store Spirit Stones, Loren thought silently.

Loren walked to his heavy large chest and reached out to open it.

The blue glow from the thirteen thousand Spirit Stones inside the chest illuminated the entire room.

Loren placed his hand on the large chest, and with a thought from his spiritual energy.

The opened large chest disappeared, and within the necklace's space, an opened large chest appeared.

With another thought from Loren's spiritual energy, a single Spirit Stone eerily appeared in Loren's hand, as if materializing out of thin air.

Loren was very satisfied with this retrieval process. It didn't require the necklace itself to touch the object;he could retrieve items using only his hand.

In that case, the scope for manipulation became somewhat broader...

In combat, this kind of eerie operation, if executed properly, could deliver a fatal blow to the opponent.

Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared at the corner of Loren's mouth.

"Can it hold living beings?" Loren asked another question.

"Very sorry, it cannot. Once space involves life, that reaches the level of a divine artifact." The young man spread his hands, expressing helplessness.

Loren nodded silently, quietly adjusting his own thoughts.

Next, Loren stored all the items on his person into the spatial necklace.

The two portable computers, the over one thousand Spirit Stones on him, that Federation Coin, and the Raven's black feather.

After storing all these items into the spatial necklace.

With another thought from Loren's spiritual energy, a revolver instantly appeared in Loren's palm.

Loren pondered silently.

So the process of the feather transforming into a revolver can be completed inside the space.

The preparation time for combat is faster by an instant...

No, wait, there's no need to worry about not having enough space to carry it;the feather can remain in revolver state all the time now.

In the past, because Loren always had to carry Spirit Stones on his person, his black coat was always filled with various items.

Therefore, to save some space,

ordinarily, that black-gold revolver existed as a feather most of the time.

To reduce its volume...

2 minutes later.

After having thoroughly familiarized himself with his new equipment—the spatial necklace.

Loren suddenly remembered something, turned his head, and said to the young man:

"I am very satisfied with this necklace. By the way, my friend, what about the thirty thousand Spirit Stones you promised me?"

The young man gave a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth and waved his hand, taking out a heavy wooden chest from his own spatial storage device.

The heavy wooden chest appeared on the floor of the room.

"They're all here. Count them." The young man said to Loren.

A coin appeared out of thin air in Loren's hand, and he tossed it into the air.

Heads. There are thirty thousand Spirit Stones in the chest!

Loren put away the coin with satisfaction, walked to the wooden chest, placed his hand on it, and opened it.

Then, with a thought from his spiritual energy.

Inside the spatial necklace, a large chest filled with Spirit Stones and opened appeared.

Forty-three thousand Spirit Stones now!

Loren sighed inwardly.

The Jadeite Star Domain is really good...

On that Resource Planet, when could I ever earn this many Spirit Stones...

With a bit more effort, I'll almost have enough Spirit Stones to advance to the Seventh Tier...

"Master, does this count as pulling off a big job?" The Raven's voice sounded again in Loren's mind.

"No, this is at most a testament to the friendship between friends."

Loren responded with a smile.

Absolutely not admitting to pulling off a job.

If no one died, how can it count as pulling off a job? Right...

In a very good mood, Loren looked towards his friend—Mr. Wang Linfu from the Eastern Star Domain.

"What Tier are you? My friend." Loren asked the other party.

"Sixth Tier, why?"

"As a testament to our friendship, I also want to give you a gift." Loren's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

"Wh... what?" The other party's tone was clearly a bit nervous.

"Don't be nervous, we are already friends."

After comforting the other party, Loren snapped his fingers, dispelling the Raven's possession state.

The Raven eerily appeared on Loren's shoulder.

The Raven was no longer bloated now, having returned to its previous slender figure.

Loren reached out and plucked a feather from the Raven on his shoulder.

The Raven didn't cry out in pain this time, clearly having gradually gotten used to this matter.

Loren handed the Raven feather he had just plucked to the other party.

The other party took the black feather and examined it.

At this moment, Loren snapped his fingers again.

The black feather in the other party's hand, amidst a flicker of light,

transformed into a brand new revolver.

This newly appeared revolver, apart from the grip being brown, all other parts of the gun body were black.

Winding along the slender black gun barrel were blood-red patterns.

Just like the blood-red chains that had appeared in the room not long ago.

The black gun accompanied by blood-red patterns symbolized ominousness.

Then, Loren snapped his fingers once more, canceling the ability he had activated on the other party.

"When you fire a shot at any time, in any place, the Misfortune attached to the other party will be triggered."

After Loren deactivated his Fifth Ability,

the other party didn't realize anything, not even knowing that the "curse" on him had already been lifted.

Instead, looking at the revolver in his hand, he asked Loren:

"Is this your ability? How do I use it?"
