Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1226: Deal if you agree

The conditions Cloud Peak raised previously were already very strict. It felt that way for the Saintess.

Although the Saint Father died, Saint Light Hall wanted to leave the Blue Secret Realm. She visited alone to gain an initial agreement with Cloud Peak.

But when both sides weren’t confident in killing the Saint Father, their agreement wasn’t detailed. This became the biggest difference now.

Two days after the Saint Father died, the negotiations started. Posthumous People and Cloud Peak gave 20 conditions, but they wouldn’t agree. Both sides bargained, and yesterday, only 16 remained.

Now that Ye Zhongming told her that the discussions yesterday were trashed and they would follow the initial one, he also wanted two more conditions that were very strict, this was something she couldn’t handle.

“Impossible!”

Saintess replied without even thinking, “Battle techniques are our foundations. If we give them to you, won’t you be able to kill us? If that is the case, why not we become your slaves?”

She got angrier and angrier, “Also, you want Wind and Lightning? That is our race’s Saint weapon! It is the mark of the Saint Father, similar to my glory staff. How can you use that as a discussion tool?”

Ye Zhongming was unfazed and said coldly, “But you don’t have a Saint Father now and won’t have any in the future!”

He pointed at the ground, “This is where all of you lived in the past. Why are you leaving? That is because you know that this place will collapse. If I don’t open the space gate, all of you will disappear with this place. When the time comes, what battle techniques? What Wind and Lightning? All of them would just be dust in the universe.”
“Since I can give all of you new life, it isn’t too much to ask for some things.”

The two were different; one was calm, and one was furious.

“You can say that I went against my word and that I just have to open that space. I don’t have to spend anything, and the conditions all of you give are enough, but things aren’t that way.”

He stared at her face and said firmly, “In my world, you are the outsider!”

She was stunned and didn’t know what he meant.

“We have a phrase: people who aren’t our race will be killed!”

He paused for a few seconds for her to understand. He continued, “If I let you go over, I must be responsible for everything you do. One day, when all of you are stable and strong, you might threaten my people and me. You might kill us. When the time comes, do I need to be responsible for my decisions today?”

“I am ripping all of you off to ensure I don’t regret and to ensure my race’s advantage. Then, I can fulfill my subordinatesʼ promises to you while allowing all of you to head over.”

The Saintess heard all of this. She was furious, but she also felt sad.

Strictly speaking, they didn’t fail. Everything might have been different if she hadn’t thrust the Glory Staff into the Saint Father’s body.

Since that is the case, Saint Light Hall might not lose if the Saintess wanted to fight.

But, there were no ifs…

She killed him because she wasn’t willing to let innocent warriors die for his selfish gains.

But, if she didn’t want to fight, did it mean she would have to agree to the conditions that were obviously ripping them off?

She was confused.

He looked at her, knowing he shouldn’t force her into a corner. He calmed down, “I can provide some help so that you can adapt to the new place.”

Saintess mocked, “Showing pity?”

Ye Zhongming shook his head, “All of you are focusing on heading to the other world. Did you think about what that world is like? How will you live? How will you survive the initial stage? Food, weapons, clothes, building materials, water, temperature… Have you considered any of these?”

Saintess was stunned. She didn’t think about those questions. It wasn’t that she was stupid but because these things weren’t under her when she was in Saint Light Hall.

People worshiped Saint Father and her. They placed their time in cultivation. Other people would deal with these admin things.

Although she didn’t think much about this, she was smart. She thought about it and knew things were as Ye Zhongming said. It wasn’t as easy as having some land. Things would be tough for them in the first few hundred days, even a thousand days.

After all, Saint Light Hall didn’t only have warriors. They had more ordinary people who couldn’t protect themselves.

How many of them could survive in a foreign environment? They were the true foundations of Saint Light Hall.

“I will provide you with a piece of land for your race and you to rest. Of course, the conditions won’t be too good, but it is big enough for you to develop. Your surroundings would have fertile land, which would be up to you to snatch it from others.”

Ye Zhongming said things he had thought about, “Within a year, which is 365 days there, I will provide you with food and water for money. I will give you the materials you need and relevant people that you have to pay for to teach you how to adapt to my world. Also, I will try to help you when you are in danger. Of course, you have to pay for that.”

“Anyways, we will try to help you to pass the tough year. As for what happens in the future, it will depend on whether or not our friendship still exists.”

She smiled, “Charge, payment! We will be ripped off again by you, right?”

“No, paying is reasonable.” He denied, “My help costs money; my members need a salary and even compensation for death.”

Seeing that she didn’t speak, he added more chips, “We can sign a contract. When you are in danger, we can send troops to help you. You have to pay but don’t worry, with your current strength, you will get rich in my world.”

“Demon crystals?” Saintess asked.

“Yes, demon crystals.”

“I want you to provide at least 20 thousand of those shining weapons. 10 thousand white, 9 thousand silver, 1 thousand green for free. And also twenty of those ranged defensive weapons. A year of food and water split into ten batches. I won’t pay for the first three batches.”

Saintess made up her mind, “If you agree then it is a deal. If you don’t then let’s fight again!”
