I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1729 Time To Finalise All Deals

”We arenʼt that far from that place,” she finally said after an hour of communicating with others. During this, Hye briefly explained to the pirate king about all this, ”We are good!”

”And the deal? The shield formation?” This was something that truly concerned Hye. Without that, heʼd not dare to go there and establish a base at these mines.

There were tons of dangers out there, in the entire border region of the universe. So it was better to care about security first, before doing anything else.

”Theyʼll ship it soon,” she paused, before adding, ”and the mines… Do you want these or not?”

”Of course I want them,” Hye nodded, ”donʼt tell me they arenʼt available!”

”Who is crazy enough to buy something hot like this except you?” The pirate king was still shocked about what he heard from Hye.

Trying to buy a group of mines located at the edge of the universe? This was insane!

”Are you telling me their prices are low?” That comment attracted Hyeʼs attention to this point. And for a second there, the nymph ladyʼs face dropped, becoming a bit pale.

”Sure, who is going to compete with you for such a thing? No way! You are going to be one of those few crazy folks who ever owned a piece here!”

”I got a shield…”

”Thatʼs not enough!” the pirate king waved his hand, as if what Hye was saying was bullshit, ”we arenʼt speaking about forces from this universe, but forces from that big behemoth! We can stop using this formation, but how about others? Can you stop them?”

”Thatʼs why we are going to use those hundred thousand ships of yours,” Hye evilly grinned, making the pirate king have a bad omen about this.

”But…”

”Donʼt worry, pal,” Hye patted his shoulder, ”that piece wonʼt be just a base of mine, but will be known as a base of your outlaw force.”

”Why not screw me instead? Huh?” the pirate king directly bellowed, and Hye couldnʼt help but laugh at him.

”We need a front,” Hye laughed, ”if I announced to the world Iʼm here, then it wonʼt just be those from the outer universe youʼll need to worry about. Besides, with our current location, and formation protecting us, there is no sane force that will try to come and take you down, right?”

”...” The pirate king knew this all made perfect sense, but still being here and declaring this place to be his felt quite bad. He didnʼt get what was wrong in Hyeʼs proposal, and yet he had no reason to refute it.

Hye found it quite amazing to have such a perfect front thatʼd move all the eyes off him. He wasnʼt that worried about the other universeʼs forces. After all, he already fought them before when he was in the apocalypse. Not to mention he knew the perfect counter for these; cultivation.

During the past twenty years, he made sure to not only train his forces on fighting tactics and such but also focused on elevating their cultivation bases. Even with the help of the time difference in his second Earth world, they didnʼt make such a big improvement as one might expect.

But they were at least good enough to defend that piece of the universe. He has had such a thought before. If the cultivation method came originally from the other universe, wouldnʼt that mean anyone training on it wouldnʼt have enough progress until heʼd go there?

”So… Now what?” As Hye went into silence, lost in his deep thoughts, the nymph lady cleared up her throat, ”I got the seller on wait… You need to decide how large is the area you want to buy, and…”

”Is there such a thing?” Hye got jolted awake from his thoughts, and looked at her before adding, ”Is the area sold that huge?”

”Let me show you…” she went towards the control unit of the ship, bringing the map up in front of their eyes. It was projected to them as a holograph, with tons of dots and lines there, marking the grand zones, sectors, and even small zones in the entire universe.

”We are here,” she selected a place that was at the edge of the universe. Weirdly enough, the map showed the universe as being cubical in shape, ”and thatʼs the place where we are going to buy in…” she pointed at another spot, and then enlarged it.

”And this is the area that the seller is offering,” she marked a large area with her finger, leaving behind a red circle.

”Damn! Itʼs at least five sectors!!! Is that for real?!!!”

”Not five, but ten,” she corrected him, ”all this area is filled with tons of unexploded mines. Not to mention there are lots of void planets there. You also ordered tons of manmade planets, and few are ready to be delivered… So…”

”I donʼt care about any of that,” the size of this area wasnʼt clear to Hye, as he didnʼt know in the first place how huge a sector was, ”I want to ask about the limitation of the protective formation. How many sectors can it cover?”

”Anything you want,” the pirate king was the one to answer this question, ”I donʼt know how you got a way to get it, but if itʼs the famous defensive shield formation, then itʼs going to cover any area you want. All you need is to purchase more anchor points, expand it, provide enough energy source to run it as much as you like, strengthen it as you wish…”

”Is that true?” Hye turned to the nymph lady, and the latter showed a surprised look on her face while giving the pirate king a doubtful gaze.

”Iʼm a pirate kind, I have to learn about the strongest ways to stop me from doing my job, right?” he puffed his chest, before adding, ”Back there, that world of merchants had such a formation, yet they were stingy to run it on full power. I heard they just provided it with enough energy sources to show at most ten percent of its capabilities. If they run it at full cylinders, then nothing could have passed through it, not us, no Hescos, no one!”
