Chapter 485: The Blinding Stone

In those cases, reatly aug theether would result inan Emperor Stone in its center served to stabilize these erratic energies It made them safe and effective Even particularly powerful – and, thus, dangerous – gems were not a threat when the Emperor Stone was part of the picture In short, it made whatever it was equipped to better – that was its purpose, stability and strength

Judging by the size of Jun Yongye’s prize, it was good enough to power the gem lattice of a scout shi+p It orth more money than most people would see in their lifetimes

Emperor Stones were only produced in the Northern Alliance, and it was one of their chief strategic products If the governments of the East and West needed them for their shi+ps, they would need to pay the North for the privilege Often the price didn’t come in dollars, and instead were traded for resources or other gems

This was the second-place prize What did they have in store for the champion?

Lan Jue was a little speechless when he noted that Jun Yongye didn’t appear to knohat it was he was looking at He took up in his hand with a blank look on his face

He sed nervously Lan Jue wasn’t a greedywhat his opponent earned, he couldn’t wait to see what he would be going hos he could do with Zeus-1 if it was equipped with an E out of his wildest drea he could offer the Blademaster

Lan Jue, lost in thought, almost didn’t notice when the Terminator stepped in front of hi a little sye’s award It looked alht-foot-talldid not always equate to its size Second place had been given a top-of-the-line, S-rank power gem What could his prize be?

An anxious light blazed behind Lan Jue’s eyes

“Congratulations on your victory, Cha You are the strongest” The Ter in it than the words let on

Inwardly Lan Jue felt his chest tighten He shter’s praise for her father is never honest She guessed, and I got lucky” The cloth was re the crystal box beneath

Lan Jue sed again, this tih “Is the Champion’s reward the crisp Northern air, your majesty?”

Laughter rippled through the stands, but there as also so the tournament Champion on his reward? Would they dare? Hua Li had just finished telling everyone how their Lan Jue wasn’t just the tournament champion, but a bona fide hero!

The Terminator’s meaty hand released the tray and pulled the top of the box open There were no waves of energy, no sensation: the box was eain with his fingers wrapped around… nothing He extended his hand toward Lan Jue

The Terhed as he looked down at it “If I had known you would be the cha else We prepared this for titan You do indeed have good luck”

There was nothing there… he couldn’t see anything He when the Terminator put it in his hands, he could feel it It was round and shtly sye He could hide it in his fist However, he could feel absolutely nothing coies at all

Lan Jue’s face lit up “Thank you very much, Your Majesty And I would like to offer my sincerest thanks to the Great Conclave as a whole” He said it with sincerity

The Paragon nodded “The Chaive us a demonstration, champion?”

He’d suspected before the Terminator said it, but now that Lan Jue was certain his excitement catapulted
