Chapter 506 Bounty Mission 2
Tiberus gazed at the mysterious bounty mission before him, a hint of curiosity welling up in his heart. He carefully extended his finger and gently tapped the screen, hoping to uncover the secret behind this mission.
However, at this moment, an unexpected prompt box popped up, and it turned out that it would cost ten star coins to view this bounty task!
This request instantly ignited Tiberus's curiosity. Normally, most bounty missions could be browsed at will by simply verifying personal permissions, but this mission was so different that it was obviously intended to exclude bounty hunters with relatively weaker financial resources.
When Tiberus and the other Astartes received their personal terminals, 10,000 star coins had already been deposited into each of their accounts. This amount of money was enough for them to spend lavishly to a certain extent.
Although he felt a little sad about the ten Star Coins that were about to be deducted, Tiberius clicked the payment confirmation button without hesitation. The ten Star Coins disappeared from his account, and the detailed description of the mysterious bounty mission was displayed before him.
A line of eye-catching text clearly appeared on the screen: "Searching for Black Stone. The larger the Black Stone unit, the higher the reward. One cubic meter of Black Stone can be exchanged for 10,000 Star Coins, and there is no upper limit."
Seeing this, Tiberus' eyes suddenly lit up, and his heartbeat involuntarily quickened. If he could successfully find and bring back a sufficient amount of Black Stone, then he would be rewarded with an extremely rich fortune.
The description of the Black Stone in the bounty mission was astonishingly detailed. Tiberius read the information word by word, and the more he read, the more shocked he became, because the various descriptions of the Black Stone were surprisingly similar to a black planet he had accidentally discovered.
He once regarded that black planet as a priceless treasure, but because the regiment was too poor at that time, he used it to trade with the Forge World of the Mechanicus in exchange for a large number of sophisticated weapons and equipment.
Now the Black Stone Planet has become the property of the Forge World, but Tiberus has other plans in mind at this moment. After all, he is no longer a member of the empire.
If that were the case, why couldn't he recapture the Black Stone Planet that once belonged to him? As long as he could control it, he could exchange a large amount of materials with the wealthy merchants under the command of the Star Lord.
Thinking of this, Tiberius could no longer suppress his excitement. He suddenly shouted towards the door, "El!"
The sound exploded in the room like thunder, and only a burst of hurried footsteps was heard coming from far away. El, the think tank of the Carcharodon Regiment, strode into Tiberus' training room in a hurry.
Upon seeing El, Tiberus didn't bother with the small talk and asked directly:
"Do you remember the black stone planet we discovered before? Which galaxy is it located in?"
As he said this, his eyes were fixed on El, his eyes revealing eagerness and expectation.
"Black Stone Planet?"
El was stunned for a moment, clearly not immediately realizing what the Black Stone Planet Tiberus was referring to. He frowned, searching the depths of his memory for relevant information, his face filled with confusion.
Tiberus stared intently at El's puzzled face. He took a deep breath and quickly reminded him:
"Didn't we make an astonishing discovery in the Dark Star Region over seventy or eighty years ago? Remember that black stone planet that was as black as ink and shone like a gem?
We used it to trade with the Matos Forge World and received a large amount of weapons and equipment in return. Have you completely forgotten about it?"
With such detailed instructions from Tiberus, El's originally confused eyes gradually brightened, and memories of the past flooded into his heart like a tide.
He slapped his thigh suddenly, and said with sudden realization, "Oh! Now I remember! Are you talking about that black planet that causes immense harm to the souls of ordinary humans?"
"Yes, it is that Black Stone Planet!" Tiberus could hardly suppress his excitement and nodded repeatedly.
At the same time, he just waved his finger lightly, and a dazzling light instantly shot out from the personal terminal in his hand, followed by a holographic projection appearing in front of the two.
This holographic projection clearly displayed an extremely tempting bounty mission. Tiberus deliberately adjusted it to face El so that the other party could also see the content clearly.
El's eyes widened, staring intently at the text displayed on the holographic projection. When he saw the specific description of the bounty mission, he couldn't help but tremble with excitement.
He shouted with a slightly hoarse voice, "What? Just one cubic meter of Black Stone can actually be exchanged for a full 100,000 Star Coins? This... This is simply unbelievable!"
"That's right!" Tiberus was also very excited. He continued speaking very quickly.
"Think about it, if we can successfully capture that Black Stone Planet again and obtain enough Black Stone resources, what a huge fortune we will gain!
By then, let alone a mere 100,000 Star Coins, even tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of Star Coins would be no problem. With such a large sum of money, how many of the coveted supplies could we purchase?"
The opportunity to get rich quickly was right in front of Tiberus, and Tiberus lost his previous composure. The purchasing power of star coins was so great that it could be used to buy everything from ordinary food to warships in the dozens of star systems under the command of the Lord of Stars.
As long as Tiberus has enough star coins, he can even buy an Emperor-class battleship. How can this not make the two of them so excited?
Although the Star Army will also provide a large amount of weapons and equipment to the Astartes, in order to obtain more warships, they need to make great enough contributions.
Only after the Star Navy fleet is fully equipped will there be a chance to obtain new warships. As long as Tiberus has enough star coins, he can even directly exchange them for an Emperor-class battleship as the flagship of the regiment.
As for how to buy the Emperor-class battleship after having so many star coins, this is not something that Tiberus needs to consider. There is a battleship exchange area in the bounty mission.
As long as Tiberus can come up with so many star coins, he can directly purchase the Emperor-class battleship. Tiberus firmly believes in this. Tiberus believes that with the magnanimity of the Lord of Stars, he will never go back on his word.
