Chapter 963: Bloodied Blade
Ye Zhongming was slightly surprised by Five Ring Money’s actions, but it felt expected.
This organization would never take a loss. They were interested in Cloud Peak’s gene lifeform and suggested such a way to work together. This proved that as long as Cloud Peak agreed, they would have a way to earn the money back. No, they could use this cooperation to earn more money.
Liu Chengyu knew how to grasp one’s thoughts. He had tested Ye Zhongming and was sure he needed the Crescent Moon Bloodstone, so he negotiated like that.
The truth was that he succeeded. If he passed the stone to Ye Zhongming, would he reject it? Would he not be tempted by this material that could craft Moon Sand?
Moreover, it was three pieces. This gave him three chances to craft the item.
Ye Zhongming would take the stone, meaning he would work with Five Ring Money.
Take the item but choose not to work together?
Not to mention that Cloud Peak and Ye Zhongming, who cared about their reputation, wouldn’t do that, even if they had such a thought; their external environment meant that they couldn’t do it.
Just count how many enemies Cloud Peak had. There was Soul Merchant and Glory Army, God Hall, whose main group had escaped, the resistance zone, Assassin Heart… If one added Five Ring Money, then Cloud Peak was facing the world.
What made Ye Zhongming more restrained was that he had a war to fight. Saint Light Hall had a level nine person. People of that level had given him a deep impression in his last life. In this life, he was definitely nervous to face such a person.To be honest, he was facing that person in the Secret Realm. If he couldn’t defeat him, at most, he would just escape with the key. If it were on Earth, Ye Zhongming definitely wouldn’t offend them.
So, when a wooden box with three pieces of stone was delivered to him, Ye Zhongming kept them.
Work together then. With Cloud Peak’s strength, he wasn’t afraid of Five Ring Money. They had what they needed. If the other side tried anything funny, Ye Zhongming would just fight back.
Crescent Moon Bloodstone wasn’t the most precious material, but was the hardest to get as it didn’t have much use and was very rare. Now that he had three pieces, he started to collect the other materials.
Besides Cloud Peak searching for the materials, they would use Puxing Town’s bounty mission and Cannibal Chain.
He was one step away, so he didn’t mind spending some money.
While collecting the materials, he also solved the second matter.
Professor He.
This fellow became more well-behaved when Ye Zhongming returned to Cloud Peak. Especially after Ye Zhongming killed the Chain Prisoner, he even found Ye Zhongming and gave many ideas and suggestions.
But Ye Zhongming knew that it was fake.
If there wasn’t the level eight King Kun Ling in the lab and Cloud Peak didn’t kill the Chain Prisoner with only three battle squads, would this fellow be so well-behaved?
The answer was negative. Just look at his experiments, and you could guess.
So, Ye Zhongming had to finish him to put himself at ease.
Apart from that, Professor He’s research ability was another reason.
He was of no value.
Was that cruel? Right, it was, but that was the truth. This was the apocalypse. It would be okay if Professor He behaved well. Unfortunately, he planned to use Cloud Peak as his stepping stone.
Ye Zhongming wouldn’t allow that.
Professor He had a bad feeling about Ye Zhongming’s sudden appearance. But he thought he was lucky and faced him with a smile.
“Boss, why are you here? Come and have a seat.”
Professor He called Ye Zhongming who was young enough to be his son, boss. Along with his face, which looked less like a human, it sent chills down one’s spine.
Ye Zhongming smiled and entered his lab. He looked around and frowned at the smell.
There was fragrance with a bit of stench.
“Professor He…”
“You want to kill me?”
The mood changed, and the smiles disappeared.
King Ling Kun touched his finger and didn’t react. Professor He’s subordinates took several steps back.
“Very good, very good.” Professor He smiled coldly.
His subordinates actually chose to betray him.
“Very good. We don’t have to be worried that you will kill us.”
The youngest researcher looked at Professor He with clenched fists.
As long as one was normal, they wouldn’t want to live such a life.
“Stupid! Without me, do you think you can continue working in Cloud Peak in this lab? Without me, all of you will get chased out!”
Professor He raised his voice, and his body also retreated.
“We will remain here. We know what you do; we also know what you don’t know.” That subordinate looked at Ye Zhongming before leading everyone out of the lab.
“Traitor! Traitor!”
Professor He raised his arm, and a pink mist spurted out. But the moment it spurted, his expression changed. He held his chest and retreated, only stopping when he bumped into the wall.
“You! What did you do to me?”
Ye Zhongming shook his head, “Your subordinates did it. But if you think I did it, then I will accept.”
“Despicable! Despicable!” Professor Hhe felt weak. He knew that his subordinates had mixed something else into the thing that was injected into him.
“Fight me like a man. You won’t be my match. I am an eight-star evolved!” Professor He shouted emotionally. His body tilted and grabbed something at an angle Ye Zhongming couldn’t see.
Ye Zhongming looked at him and didn’t say a word.
Professor He tossed the thing in his hands but several sharp crystal branches shot from the wall behind him, piercing his limbs and body.
“Oh, oh, I hate this fellow. So smelly!”
Death King Tree’s voice spread from behind the wall. She grumbled to Ye Zhongming.
Ye Zhongming walked to the side of the bleeding Professor He and took the thing in his hands. He waved it at Professor He.
“Thanks.”
After which, Ling Kun and he walked out of the lab. Liu Zhenghong appeared. In her hands was a white experiment case.
Professor He saw and used his last bit of strength to exclaim.
