Chapter 315: Solving danger (2)
Many people resisted the temptation of this equipment and came to congratulate Ye Zhongming.
They did have other thoughts, like killing Ye Zhongming, but they evaluated the gap in strength and all gave up.
Numbers couldn’t make up this gap. If they attacked Ye Zhongming now, they were all crazy.
Those small faction alliances were the ones that couldn’t hide their desire for the equipment. Many of them started to point at the gear and discuss their benefits.
These people had worked with Ye Zhongming and understood him. They knew he was an elite Smith and didn’t care much about grey and white equipment. So they knew he would keep a portion for Cloud Peak but sell those he didn’t need, like those grey weapons. Ye Zhongming crafted better weapons than this to sell to these allies.
Ye Zhongming picked up their expressions and was glad he didn’t have to say too much.
Ye Zhongming had a straightforward thought process regarding this equipment. He would keep a small portion for his group and sell the rest, including the white weapons he got from the Glory Army leaders.
As for why he didn’t keep all of them for Cloud Peak, Ye Zhongming had his considerations.
Ye Zhongming was a Smith who could craft grey and white equipment without using ghost metal. He could craft Moon Edge and Thousand Leaf Phosphor Armor. As a result, he didn’t care much about this equipment.
Ye Zhongming gained many materials, enough for him to craft better equipment than these.
Moreover, he didn’t forget the people he offended on this trip.
People like Soul Merchant and Glory Army.
Ying City Jail and others he didn’t know who wanted to kill Cloud Peak and him.
So he was surrounded by danger.
If he wasn’t strong enough to solve all these factions alone, he had to split the dangers he faced.
Glory Army hated himself; this time, Ye Zhongming snatched everything they had. Not only did they lose everything from the wheel, but they also lost the gear and weapons that belonged to themselves.
If Ye Zhongming took all the items, that hatred would be focused on his body. But what if other factions took them, too? Even if the Glory Army didn’t hate them for that, they wouldn’t feel good about them. Taking a step back, the Glory Army was generous to not bother about such things and only focused on killing Ye Zhongming. But what about the other factions? Would they feel afraid? When they meet Glory Army, would they be afraid that they would steal this gear back?
Under such a mentality, will they choose to work with the Glory Army? Or would they choose to work with Cloud Peak, who sold them items for a low price and proved that they could face up to Glory Army?
The answer was obvious.
Glory Army could promise them other benefits so that the outcome might differ. But even then, the Glory Army would have to make sacrifices, weakening themselves.
Moreover, the main focus of the apocalypse was to deal with mutated lifeforms. Ye Zhongming didn’t plan to reveal the crystal weapon blueprints to the public. Still, he would try to let more people have the ability to fight the mutated lifeforms to create a more complicated and chaotic Ying City.
No one was willing to see a strong neighbor.
Thus, he started to sell the equipment. The price was the same as before—grey ones for one level-two crystal, white for 20 level-two or three level-three crystals.
The small faction alliance had worked with Ye Zhongming previously, so they didn’t hesitate. A few hundred pieces of grey equipment were gone in a short while.
The other factions feared they would miss out, so they joined in.
2000 grey equipment was sold almost instantly.
The small faction alliance was the first to strike but didn’t buy too many. After all, they had traded with Ye Zhongming and spent most of their crystals. The ones they were spending now were those they gathered after or were spending their savings.
The other factions that didn’t spend much previously were the ones spending now. They took level-two crystals out like drinking water.
Especially Renxing Battle Squad and Star Beauty Company. They were the large factions in Ying City, and even if they suffered losses this time, their foundations remained. Their two factions collected half of these 2,000 pieces. The ten pieces of white equipment were split between the two of them.
When others were taking 20 level-two crystals to buy one piece, these two factions took three level-three crystals. Even if Ye Zhongming was a fool, he knew how to choose. With these level-three crystals, along with what he got previously and those from Glory Army, Ye Zhongming could get two level-three potions.
After selling the equipment, Ye Zhongming and the leaders of the factions gathered in a room and had a four-hour meeting. They decided on ways for them to work together. This meant that Ye Zhongming was stretching his hand into Ying City.
After the meeting ended, the faction leaders returned to their camps. In the future, their fates will be connected with Cloud Peak.
The small faction alliance disbanded. Many small factions expressed that they wanted to join Cloud Peak. Ye Zhongming considered it and decided to hold a trial half a month later. Moreover, he had plans to set up branches in Ying City. But that was just an idea; he would have to plan further.
Talking Lady came over at night. She had the aura of a king. Behind her were ten level-three zombies as guards. Ye Zhongming knew there were many other level-three zombies where he couldn’t see them.
This wasn’t Talking Lady’s declaration of war; she was just worried about him.
“Blood, please be trustworthy.”
Ye Zhongming nodded and tossed three drops to her. Her eyes lit up, and she swallowed two drops.
Red Hair appeared behind Ye Zhongming. She took three drops of blood from her ex-master!
Ye Zhongming’s heart didn’t hurt. He knew that one had to solve danger by… Balance.
