Chapter 16: Chapter 14: Abnormalities in Dongwu City

Baiyi changed the topic: ”Are they still buying that batch of firearms?”

Sabo knew what Baiyi was asking and nodded without hesitation: ”My friend, although your invention isn’t innovative, no alchemist has emerged yet to mimic it. This won’t affect this transaction. Of course, if you don’t want to sell to them, the City Lord’s Mansion would be happy to take this batch of equipment, but the price....”

”Just sell it to them and take it away in a moment.” Baiyi interrupted Sabo.

The Will Clan is not really an enemy. The earlier conflict was at most a minor friction. In the Dawn Federation, unless a direct lineage member dies, benefits are enough to dissolve any unpleasantness. That’s why Baiyi didn’t go for the kill.

You have to know, this is his own turf. To really kill a Level 24 mage wasn’t difficult before his breakthrough, let alone now.

The main purpose was just to check the caliber of the Will Clan members and to extort a bit; alchemists are always short of money.

”I understand.” Sabo’s smile grew wider: ”According to market price, a Bronze Level Energy Gun is about two hundred Gold Coins. Your Energy Gun is more advanced, though it can’t fire continuously, it can reach three hundred Gold Coins, and five hundred pieces come to one hundred and fifty thousand Gold Coins, plus you owe me 31,030 Gold Coins, I’ll give you one hundred and seventy thousand Gold Coins in total, how about it?”

Baiyi was taken aback, thought for a moment. Although he didn’t know how the guy negotiated, he got used to this kind of cooperation. Sabo always had the ability to net more money.

So, he decisively said: ”Deduct the loan, two hundred thousand.”

”Deal!”

Sabo agreed decisively without the slightest hesitation, his smile blooming like a chrysanthemum, making people somewhat uncomfortable.

Baiyi twitched his lips, did he ask for too little?

But since he spoke, it’s a fixed price; whatever profit the other can make is their business. Long-term cooperative partners have this kind of tacit understanding.

However, Baiyi estimated that this guy sold at least nine hundred Gold Coins per piece to be so straightforward in the deal. How did he do it?

Are the Will Clan’s people such easy targets?

Snap~

Baiyi snapped his fingers, instructing: ”Mr. Or, help me watch the shop. Miss Aileen is on leave this afternoon.”

After speaking, without waiting for a response, Baiyi turned and walked towards the laboratory on the right.

Sabo followed closely behind, always being very cautious when going to an alchemist’s domain.

The traps are not only mastered by thieves and assassins, but also by alchemists, especially those specializing in Alchemy Poison and Energy Science.

Baiyi was previously considered to be technology-specialized, but now temporarily without specialization, planning to develop comprehensively. With enough energy, such an alchemist is the most terrifying.

Because the alchemy profession, like mages, though divided into specializations like Space Mage, Elemental Mage, all-around is still their hallmark.

When two huge Steel Giant Gates opened, Sabo couldn’t help but exclaim: ”Oh, my friend, every time I come to your laboratory, I feel amazed.”

”No need for pleasantries.” Baiyi didn’t rush to hand over the Energy Gun to Sabo but asked rather seriously: ”What’s going on with that Scarlet Sect?”

This cult appearing at this point in time, according to the original timeline, should just be the day that Old Wolf has fully healed and obtained the golden finger.

And he hadn’t heard of this sect; it’s hard not to suspect that it’s cannon fodder created for the growth of the Blood Prison Greedy Wolf.

Sabo’s smile slightly faded, he mysteriously glanced around, lowered his voice a bit: ”They are followers of an Ancient God, if I’m not mistaken, they’re all here.”

Baiyi pondered for a moment, asked: ”Are you saying the Scarlet Sect’s headquarters is in Dongwu City?”

He really hadn’t heard of this sect. If it has anything to do with ”Scarlet,” there indeed is a Lord of Scarlet, but that thing similar to a background story, didn’t appear even in version 3.0.

And having been in Dongwu City for a year, he rarely went to the civilian zone....

”In the civilian zone?” Baiyi then shook his head and asked: ”The Will Clan’s core is in the Capital City, those two are obviously direct lineage, implying that the Scarlet Sect members they’re chasing also come from the Capital City, and this is a border area.”

”It’s just speculation, my friend.” Sabo thought for a bit, continued to say mysteriously: ”Moreover, the oddity isn’t just that, I found that the organizations hiding underneath Dongwu City seem not only to be the Scarlet Sect, there’s something even more mysterious.”

A more hidden organization....

Baiyi’s eyes flickered, he thought of those two Silver Powerhouses who came to recruit him, Black Night Rose is a very dangerous organization.

When they want to hide, those who can find them, besides players and his kind of reborn ones, are only their own people....

”What is it?” Baiyi lowered his eyes slightly, voice lightened.

Sabo cautiously said: ”It’s an invisible force; in the ten days you spent making weapons, that force was very active, targeting the Scarlet Sect. What happened on Saint Martial Avenue earlier, I suspect is related to that force.....”

-----------------

And at this time, on Saint Martial Avenue, the most bustling street in Dongwu City had lessened in crowd, but places blocked by soldiers still gathered some onlookers.

Ernado indifferently asked: ”Are we just letting it go like this?”

Behind him, Seth also looked towards Kami, after all, he almost died in that shop, though he is a branch member, when has the Will Clan encountered such loss?

”Right now in the three legions of Dongwu City, there are over a thousand Energy Guns, and the City Lord, being a Golden Upper Tier, no one can ignore his deterrence.”

Kami calmly said, turning to look at Ernado: ”Will’s influence doesn’t extend here, you need to act with more discretion.”

Ernado glanced at the two Silver Soldiers sent by the City Lord that hadn’t approached too much, his tone along with the chill in his voice increased: ”So what? The maximum level of that alchemist is merely Level 35, I can kill him!”

”And then?” Kami’s gaze sharpened: ”Don’t forget how the Scarlet Sect appeared. Our goal is merely to purge this sect; any other factors are irrelevant.”

Ernado couldn’t help but turn to look at Kami, complex emotions flashed in those light green eyes: ”What about the dwarf’s issue? Are we letting it go too? We’ve spent fifty thousand Gold Coins just coming to this city, that’s half the assets of this mission.”

”Every piece of information has its price, it just doesn’t have a clear tag.” Kami said, turning to stare at Seth for a moment, then commanded in a light voice: ”And you, stay settled recently.”

”Yes, I understand, Miss.” A thin layer of sweat appeared on Seth’s forehead; under that gaze, he felt thoroughly seen through.

Kami glanced at the shop not far away, a thoughtful look flashing in her eyes, the force this alchemist represents seems not low....

Ernado’s thoughts grew increasingly complex, he turned and silently inspected the corpses.
