"Elental Prism Heart? What does it do?" Nash asked in curiosity.
If it were only for defense, Nash wouldn’t have any use for it.
From physical defense to elental defense, the sa type couldn’t be stacked.
Unless specifically configured with runic language, it was useless.
"This is an amplification and training type treasure," Alec said, knowing Nash didn’t lack those common treasures.
"Oh? How does it work?"
"It could instantly stimulate all the power of an elental crystal, rapidly increasing the concentration of elental properties in the surroundings. The only problem with this treasure is, it’s too costly to use," Alec sighed.
The elental crystals he ant weren’t those cheap, attributeless ones, but those costing a few to hundreds of sols.
Burning money just to boost the elental concentration for a brief mont was too wasteful.
If used for training, maybe not even a ten-thousandth could be absorbed.
In a fight, thousands upon thousands of elental crystals were needed to be effective.
In short, although the Elental Prism Heart was a unique and valuable treasure, using it was no different from burning money.
"Just that? It’s fine by . How much are you selling it for?" Nash asked quickly.
Hearing it was a treasure for training and even combat, Nash decided to buy it without hesitation.
Elental crystals might be a problem for others, but for him, backed by the Nova Sector’s budget, it was nothing.
For this money-burning treasure that could either be used for combat or training, it was a perfect treasure!
"Oh, I forgot you’re a damn rich man!" Alec muttered through gritted teeth.
Being able to buy a Tier 5 soul treasure for 6 billion sols, Nash was undoubtedly not short on money.
As long as he was careful, using the Elental Prism Heart was indeed not a problem.
"I’m not that rich. I’m just lucky to have soone rich behind ," Nash said with a smile.
Even a Tier 9 planetary powerhouse couldn’t possess greater wealth than an entire sector’s territory.
A Tier 2 scientific professor like Alec couldn’t even imagine that he could mobilize trillions of sol whenever he wanted.
"Fine, fine. Don’t brag. I’ll sell this treasure to you for 5 billion sols."
"Oh? You’re not trying to rip off anymore?"
Although the price was the highest a Tier 5 runic treasure could fetch, the unique ability of the Elental Prism Heart could set it at a higher cost.
Seeing that Alec didn’t propose an exorbitant price, such as 7 or 8 billion sols, Nash was a bit surprised.
"I’m not short on money anymore. Plus, this treasure is pretty useless unless you have deep pockets," Alec replied.
"Is that so? Then I’ll buy it."
Seeing that Alec no longer wanted to chat, Nash quickly paid the remaining balance for the runic treasure.
Spending 8 billion sols, he promptly sent the invoice to Zeke for reimbursent.

Soon, saying goodbye to Alec, Nash headed toward Natasha and the others to help them buy the resources they needed for the Cosmic Competition.
Along the way, Nash suddenly received a call from Zeke.
"What are those things you’re buying? I need to remind you the 120 trillion sol budget we have is already set," Zeke said, sounding exasperated.
In just a few hours, Nash had already spent 80 billion sols. Zeke could only imagine the chaos if he didn’t rein him in further.
All the items they needed were already listed. Nash’s extra purchases ant they couldn’t afford other essentials.
"I bought perfect-quality potions for 72 billion sols. You can just deduct the cost we need for those advanced potions. As for the 8 billion, I got a Tier 5 runic treasure. Didn’t Supre Leader Alistair reward us for that?" Nash explained.
"Alright, we can deduct it from the advanced potions. However, an 8 billion sol Tier 5 runic treasure? Where did you even find that? Aren’t you being scamd?" Zeke asked.
Zeke had only seen Tier 5 runic treasures worth 5 billion sols at most. An 8 billion sol treasure? Was there even such a thing?
That price could buy two or three more Tier 5 runic treasures, or with a bit more, even a Tier 6 runic weapon!
"No, I’m not being scamd. The treasure I bought is little special, so it’s a bit expensive," Nash said with a touch of embarrassnt.
After all, even the money for his personal weapon was included in the reimbursent.
Although the potion was more expensive, it had its reasons. Spending money he didn’t own, Nash felt a twinge of guilt.
"Tsk, just be careful with your spending. The Nova Sector doesn’t have any more funds to cover you!" Zeke said over the call.
Though it wasn’t his money, Zeke felt a pang of distress.
"I know, I know. I’ll just help Natasha and the others buy stuff. I’ve already bought everything I need," Nash replied.
The dark weapons he’d purchased from scattered rchants were already being delivered to the Solaris Docking Station.
Since they didn’t cost much, Nash only had to pay remotely after confirming the order.
"That’s good," Zeke said.
Ending the call, Nash heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Zeke didn’t ask more questions, or Nash wouldn’t have known how to answer.

Continuing his journey, Nash soon t up with Natasha and the others.
"Why are you here?" Natasha asked, spotting him.
"I’m here to help."
"Help? No, go back and rest. You’ve been working hard enough," Natasha said, imdiately shutting him down.
Knowing Nash had been working nonstop, she didn’t want to burden him further.
"I just want to help," Nash insisted.
"No, leave! If you don’t have anything to do, just sleep!"
If she let Nash help with even these small tasks, she would feel utterly useless.
"Then I’ll go help the others," Nash offered.
"No need. I’ve already notified them. Even if you try, they won’t pay you any attention."
"You!" Nash exclaid.
"Hmph! If you can still do any work, consider it my loss!" Natasha thought, smirking victoriously.
Seeing that Natasha and the others wouldn’t budge, Nash considered other things he could do.
Although he could relax and tour around the Solaris Capital, his mind was already occupied by the coming cosmic competition to mind any of it.
Suddenly, he rembered he still needed references on various elents.
Though he was only at the Void General rank, it was wise to prepare for higher realms while he could.
With that in mind, Nash said goodbye to Natasha and headed back to their planetary battleship.
