Chapter 975: Foreign King
Chapter 975: Foreign King
This was the first time he saw the faction that had suppressed the Posthumous people. As expected, they were very orderly, and there was no chaos at all. The few kings that planned to sneak attack them before they stabilized could only give up on those thoughts.
“Sister Hong and Le, as well as those technical members, are gone?”
All of them came over to lead the city defense and adjust the equipment. They even built a temporary lab and placed some gene lifeforms here for the battle.
Saint Light Hall’s main force was here, and the outside world was lost. Soon, these people from a higher civilization than them would attack. Ye Zhongming, even the Posthumous people didn’t understand much about them. They didn’t even know if they had any skill that could allow them to attack. To prevent accidents from happening, Ye Zhongming didn’t want the researchers to remain here. They were the foundations of Cloud Peak.
“They are all gone; only some essential workers protect those research results and maintain the crystal weapons.”
Ye Zhongming nodded. This battle, no, war. Consolidated Cloud Peak’s highest battle abilities. It was an accident previously when the mutated lifeform army surrounded them, and they didn’t use many of their skills.
This time, Ye Zhongming planned to try them on Saint Light Hall.
“Mu Xinfei has helped us contact the Resistance Zone and asked them for the Mechanic Fortress that they owe us.”“En.”
Ye Zhongming didn’t know about that and looked at Xia Lei curiously.
The Resistance Zone was fighting for itself and wasn’t as united as before. Although Mu Xinfei was S Zone’s commander, everyone knew that she was the weakest. Would the other zones accept the suggestion?
Asking others for things? It might work if Ye Zhongming went with Cloud Peak’s main force, but Mu Xinfei… That sounded too ideal.
“It all depends on what we do.” Xia Lei smiled. Of course, they weren’t willing, but some rewards and threats would make tough things simpler.”
“Remember that I took a batch of modified Silver Boxes?”
Ye Zhongming knew about it, but he didn’t ask. He believed in Xia Lei. Moreover, this was backend, and she was in charge of it. He was busy crafting equipment and doing that mission, so he didn’t have the energy to care about all of this.
“I gave them to Mu Xinfei and also sent some of my squad to follow her to start a ‘rebellion’.”
Ye Zhongming roughly understood after hearing that. As expected, Xia Lei’s words proved his guess.
“My squad and the squad that was loyal to Mu Xinfei battled the squad in S Zone that opposed her openly. In just half an hour, their main force was killed.”
Xia Lei smiled coldly, “One reason was that although we attacked them head-on, we entered their territory very sneakily, and they had no time to react. The second reason was the crystal weapons. They couldn’t defend themselves and fell like flies.”
“I recorded the whole process. I told Mu Xinfei to send the video over when she contacted the others.”
Ye Zhongming smiled. His woman had so many ideas of how to threaten people.
“Along with it, we would pay 10% higher than the market to purchase some high-end weapons.”
“This was the sweetener?”
Xia Lei paused as she saw a huge group of flying beasts enter the plains before the city. It should be the Light Feather Squad.
They were the squad to which Cloud Peak paid the most attention.
“En, although they are big, they can’t compare to you. The wealth you create alone is probably comparable to all four zones.”
“Potions, along with equipment, all of this can raise a squad’s level. Be C Zone that doesn’t have a good relationship with us, T Zone split with us due to Guang Yao, and G Zone, with whom we don’t have much contact. They all agreed and told us they could sell us the things we need.”
“Do you know why?”
Ye Zhongming, who was a little tense due to the Light Feather Squad’s arrival, smiled.
“Did they say they can sell another Mechanic Fortress and Exquisite Floating Ball?”
“Right!”
“They can even sell that. Additionally, things like Lazy Man Case and other special zone items can be sold to us!”
Ye Zhongming was stunned as this exceeded his expectations. He didn’t understand what they were thinking. He didn’t think that Wen Zhong and those commanders would be so nice to Cloud Peak.
“The things are coming, but it would take a few days. But I think that this war wouldn’t end so quickly. Those weapons would be of use!”
Human weapons were historic to enemies from another world. Even Xia Lei would feel excited.
At this time, the guard of a Posthumous people king found Ye Zhongming and told him to head to the tent. When Ye Zhongming arrived, he saw that all the kings were here, including the protector.
This meeting seemed very important.
But he found out the reason.
“Zhongming, all of us made a decision; we want to invite you to become our… Foreign King.”
