Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 866: Chapter 405: Variable

Li Ye’s Imitative Heavenly Soldiers are more cost-effective than Black Umbrella’s Ash Summoning Items.

If purchasing a single Heavenly Soldier doesn’t seem worth it,

the electors can provide Extraordinary Creatures’ corpses themselves for refining. Each batch will produce multiple Heavenly Soldiers.

The higher the level of the materials provided, the stronger the resulting Heavenly Soldiers will be.

The only trouble is that the strength of the resulting soldiers… varies.

For example, a corpse of a Sixth Sense Extraordinary Creature could produce a Heavenly Soldier with the strength of the Fourth or Fifth Sense. Alternatively, there could be a lucky breakthrough, producing a small number with Sixth Sense strength.

If you produce a Sixth Sense Heavenly Soldier, it’s a huge profit.

This intrigues many Ark Chosen Ones, who plan to take a gamble.

Li Ye is not worried about the outflow of Imitative Heavenly Soldiers causing any impact.

After all, the grades that flow out would not be very high, and Imitative Heavenly Soldiers can only be activated by humans and cannot be used in the Forbidden Zone.

So… controlling the strength of the Heavenly Soldiers is enough.

Two Fifth Sense Heavenly Soldiers would require a B-level Armament.

Then if you want a Sixth Sense? Either exchange with an A-level Armament or rely on luck.

Coincidentally, Li Ye was unlucky, as the grades of the Imitative Heavenly Soldiers he refined were almost all Fourth Sense, with a few Fifth Sense. Sixth Sense? Not even a hair.

This way, the issue of controlling the strength of traded Heavenly Soldiers can be effectively managed.

Even the ark couldn’t find fault.

You can’t say Li Ye is unlucky as a breach of contract, right?

This also makes the electors realize the rarity and preciousness of Sixth Sense Imitative Heavenly Soldiers.

Of course, occasionally having Li Yunyan refine a batch ensures it can’t always be unlucky, right?

So, Jing Lin sees this as extremely insidious.

‘With such bad luck, others help refine, yet they have to calculate extra rewards for you? And thank you? Too insidious! Where’s this capitalist from?’ Jing Lin ridicules inwardly.

Yet some electors are cautious and do not place orders immediately.

After all, some Ark Chosen Ones remember.

Copper Face first encountered the Disaster Fog No. 71, then experienced the Time Tree incident.

For one person to face two major calamities, he is really unlucky!

Letting him refine may not produce good goods.

But, they guessed right.

However, the Imitative Heavenly Soldiers released by Li Ye were quickly traded.

Not all Ark electors are strong; some newcomers or those of lower Awakening levels really need Imitative Heavenly Soldiers.

When Li Ye was at Third and Fourth Awakening, having one or two Imitative Heavenly Soldiers made combat much easier.

Thus, within two minutes, Li Ye received four B-level Armaments, six C-level Armaments, and three pieces of low-grade Magic Potion Material.

These Spiritual Ability Equipment alone are enough to arm a small spiritual team.

If converted into official Merit Points, one B-level Armament requires about four hundred Merit Points.

While a Fifth Sense Heavenly Soldier costs around one hundred points.

With each transaction, Li Ye can earn about two hundred Merit Points.

If exchanged for materials for refining, there’s still much profit even if Li Ye refines it himself. If Li Yunyan refines it, the earnings could exceed three times.

Subsequently, these transactions will increase, representing that Li Ye can gain intelligence and resources at minimal cost.

With each transaction, the electors will increasingly rely on Li Ye.

This is the profit from monopoly and information disparity.

There are many official-needed resources inside the ark.

Such as special minerals like Summoning Thunder Ore Crystal and Sealed Blood Ore Crystal, which are required by the authorities.

Of course, the best situation is to trade for Spirit Fruit containing strong life force to fully unleash the Old Mad King’s combat power!

….

Subsequently, came the transactions of various electors, carried out either secretly or openly.

Some were between humans and humans, others between humans and Forbidden Zone creatures.

Some secret plans or conspiracies are in implementation, but apart from the Captain, no one could eavesdrop on this intelligence.

At this point, Jin Shan spoke: “Copper Face, let’s have a chat. Privately.”

“Of course, Mr. Jin Shan.” Li Ye’s heart moved; this damn dog is the Supreme of Black Origin City. Coming to find him now is probably to gather some intelligence about the Immortal Palace.

So, Li Ye appeared very respectful and agreed to his invitation.

The next second, the scene outside the two of them became blurred, and the surrounding sounds vanished instantly.

“Mr. Jin Shan, are you looking to purchase Imitative Heavenly Soldiers?” Li Ye asked first: “I must remind you, Imitative Heavenly Soldiers seem unusable by races other than humans.”

“I know. After all, it’s the technology of the Ancient Heavenly Court. That’s not why I am looking for you…” Jin Shan nodded slightly: “Copper Face, since you can obtain the technique of Planting Beans into Soldiers, you should be well-informed about what’s happening within the Immortal Palace, right?”

“What do you want to know?” Li Ye inquired.

“I already know the general course within the Immortal Palace, but I want to confirm… did those two future civilizations leave any messages?” Jin Shan asked.

Did he sense that humans obtained future intelligence?

Is it possible that humanity’s assassination actions have alarmed Black Origin City?

However, this information is top secret within Giant City.

As an official captain, Li Ye only knows part of the assassination list.

How could Copper Face, a non-official part of the spiritual group, know?

“It’s possible. I once heard some rumors on the battlefield, suggesting that future powerhouses want to kill certain human powerhouses because those powerhouses caused trouble for them in the future.” Li Ye shook his head: “But I don’t know specifically who, escaping from the chaotic battlefield was already very difficult…”
