Reborn with Infinity Money System, I was Worshipped by All Universes! - Chapter 225

Chapter 225: Chapter222-The Holy Fortress Is Here!
“Oh, right—eat too much of this and it might get cloying.”

As Velen spoke, he walked over carrying an ordinary-sized wooden bucket. “Nether Soul Knight Commander, I’ve got some Lafite Vintage here. Could I trouble you to use it to cook the Dragon Glass?”

With that, he handed over the task of cooking the Dragon Glass to the Nether Soul Knight Commander.

“Prince Velen actually owns Lafite Vintage?”

The Nether Soul Knight Commander’s eyes went wide in disbelief as he stared at the wooden bucket in front of him.

You have to understand—Lafite Vintage was extremely rare across the entire Singularity Battlefield. Even if someone possessed only a few precious drops, they’d store it carefully in a bottle protected by a micro magic array.

But Prince Velen? He just casually dumped a whole bucket of it into a plain wooden container.

The Nether Soul Knight Commander felt a sharp, stabbing pain in his heart.

Damn it, that’s Lafite Vintage!

That stuff could be exchanged for who knows how many rare items to increase one’s strength!

If he had access to just a fraction of this before breaking through to the Ascended rank, his power would’ve soared to the next level by now.

And now? Something this rare and valuable… was going to be used to cook Dragon Glass?

This was sacrilege upon sacrilege.

Waste of the century—doubled!

He was breaking down on the inside.

“Prince Velen!”

The Nether Soul Knight Commander finally mustered up his courage and called out to Velen, who was about to leave. “Can you please not use this to cook Dragon Glass?”

“Oh? You guys want to use the Lafite Vintage for foot baths or soaking instead?”

Velen stopped and turned back. “Alright then, I’ll leave a bucket for you to soak your feet. We’ve got a lot of people in our fortress, and between daily baths and foot soaks, we go through quite a bit of it. Can’t spare too much for others.”

With that, Velen casually dropped off another full bucket and strolled toward his rocking chair in the distance.

What the—?!

“Everyone, this is Lafite Vintage we’re talking about! I’ve spent hundreds of years roaming the Singularity Battlefield, and I’ve only ever managed to gather a bottle the size of a palm! And these people? They soak in it daily?! How the hell am I supposed to process that?!”

The Nether Soul Knight Commander finally snapped. His mental state was in complete disarray.

What he had dreamed of day and night, what he had once regarded as a heavenly treasure, was now just… bathwater to someone else.

The disparity was too vast.

No one could stay calm in the face of that.

As he slumped before the water bucket, devastated, the Thunder Knight Commander sat beside him, sullenly fiddling with a piece of Dragon Glass.

Arthur and Kris exchanged glances.

Kris gave a bitter laugh and said, “You’re the ones who insisted on coming to see Prince Velen. Wouldn’t it have been better to just stay in your own estate?”

“You think I wanted to come?!”

The Nether Soul Knight Commander shouted with a look of pure grievance. “I didn’t drag myself here like a lunatic! You four dragged me over against my will! What did I ever do to deserve this?!”

He looked so wronged—like a pitiful little soul who’d suffered an unspeakable injustice.

The others couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy.

A short while later…

With all ten thousand pieces of Dragon Glass neatly skewered and the necessary Astral Aurum materials prepared, Arthur walked up to Velen.

“Prince Velen, these Dragon Glass pieces are very generously portioned. There are ten thousand of them, but there are only so few of us. Even if we eat until we explode, we won’t finish them all.”

“I’ll take a thousand with me when I leave,” Velen replied casually. “The rest, you can divide among yourselves. Give some to the king, the royal magister, and the others.”

As he spoke, evening descended.

Thanks to the combined efforts of the four Knight Commanders, the entire batch of ten thousand Dragon Glass was fully roasted.

A rich aroma wafted through the courtyard, making everyone’s mouths water uncontrollably.

They couldn’t take it anymore.

It smelled way too good!

Just then, Justin completed his third sculpture.

Ding! “Congratulations, Host! You have completed today’s special item quota. Reward: 1,000 luxury points!”

Ding! “Justin has completed his third sculpture. Congratulations, Host! You have gained 10 million luxury points and 100 bottles of god-rank mana potions!”

Two system notifications echoed through Velen’s mind.

He instantly leapt up from his rocking chair.

Three hundred and twenty million!

His luxury points had reached a whopping 320 million!

As long as he kept flexing his wealth and spending with flair, he would soon have the 900 million luxury points required.

At that point, he could directly break through to Supreme Rank Lv9 – Peak Stage!

Velen’s mind raced with calculations.

“Three sculptures by Justin got me 30 million luxury points and 300 god-rank mana potions. I gave Anastasia 50 bottles, which means I only have 250 left. Not enough!”

“This time, when I return to the fortress, I’ll use special items to unlock god-rank potion treasure chests and obtain a massive batch to boost everyone’s strength.”

A satisfied smile spread across his face.

After all, he’d only been in this world for about three months, and to have already achieved so much—he was more than content.

After packing up 1,000 Dragon Glass skewers, Velen and Justin activated a Spatial Portal and left Arthur’s courtyard.

“Sigh…” Arthur watched the two disappear into the portal and let out a soft sigh.

“When Prince Velen’s here, every day is nerve-wracking. But now that he’s gone… I kind of miss him already.”

“OH MY GOD—leave me some of that Lafite Vintage!”

Before Arthur could finish his lament, he turned around and saw the other four Knight Commanders fighting over the remaining one and a half buckets of Lafite Vintage.

Cursing loudly, Arthur quickly ran over to join the fray.

Back at the fortress, Velen set aside 20 Dragon Glass pieces for himself and handed the remaining 980 roasted ones to Justin for distribution among the fortress residents. Then, he returned to his residence for a rest.

Later that night, the Five Young Elites appeared in his quarters.

“There are 500 god-rank mana potions here,” Velen said as he handed out bottles. “Split them among yourselves and start taking them tonight. Raise your power as fast as possible.”

As he spoke, he also took out a few rings glowing with mysterious energy.

“These are special items that can conceal your magical aura. No matter what rank you advance to, your emitted mana will always appear the same. Only you and I know about this. Now go.”

Once they had left, Justin, Alan, and the others came one by one.

Each received 100 god-rank mana potions and one concealment ring.

“The rabbit’s still digesting the mana inheritance. No need to rush its cultivation with potions just yet,” Velen thought to himself. “At last, I can finally get some proper sleep!”

“The entire fortress is advancing rapidly. When Anastasia ascends to the upper plane universe and sees the surprise I’ve prepared for her, she’ll be moved to tears.”

“In this entire universe, no one is as considerate as your dear Velen.”

He grinned, already imagining the joy on Anastasia’s face.

The next day.

“That planet up ahead… that’s where the fortress is,” Gallio said, pointing toward the distant celestial body while speaking to Kayn beside him.
