Tempest of the Stellar War

“It seems that I have boarded a pirate ship! Even if I have to sell myself, I will also think of a way to get money. As for how much, I wouldn’t know it as well. Give me 1 week!” Wang Zheng decided to go all out.

Xiao Fei smiled immediately. “No problem. It would be alright too even if you need more time. The key thing is that it must be successful. If you can complete this mission, I would reward you well!”

… Although the flirtatious expression was alluring, it seemed just like an empty cheque.

He had been treated to a $500 meal. However, Student Wang would now have to think of a way to get $500 million. Even if he was to sell himself, he also had to find a good buyer.

After returning, Wang Zheng had pondered over it. It wasn’t that he had no direction to work towards. The truth was that he had some thoughts about it.

One of them would be through CT. It would be easy to talk to Solon about it. However, the problem was also prominent. Solon was only a manager. CT Company would also have their own operating models and probably earned quite a lot. It might still be possible if it was a few millions or tens of millions. However, it would likely not be possible for such a large sum. Moreover, it wouldn’t be possible given the time.

Using the name of Skeleton alone wouldn’t be enough. He would still need a sufficient strong opponent. Where could he find such a person?

The other way was through the World of Saints.

This was definitely a place where people squandered their money. No matter how much money one spent on it, it was like a bottomless pit.

No matter if he could succeed, he still had to give it a try. In the worst scenario and if all things failed, he might need to look for Mu Sen to think of a solution. However, he had already troubled the Tita people. The Tita Star was also currently in the midst of rebuilding. This type of request was unreasonable despite the fact that Wang Zheng believed that Mu Sen would come out with a solution to help him.

Oh damn! There would definitely be more solutions than problems and every problem would have a solution. Wasn’t it just about making money?

Wang Zheng had entered the World of Saints and had called Tentacles, who was practising his technique enthusiastically, over.

It was rare for Tentacles to see Brother Charcoal being so serious about something.

“Tentacles, I remembered you had earned quite a sum from this place. From your perspective, was there a way to earn a lot of money in a short period of time?” asked Wang Zheng.

Tentacles was stunned. This question was a little depressing. “Brother Charcoal, a genius like you shouldn’t …”

“Even a genius has to eat. I had a wife that squandered the family away. She had lost all the capital while doing business and was in huge debt.” said Wang Zheng. He wouldn’t let the opportunity to defame Xiao Fei slip away as she was always bullying him.

“How much? I still have some savings.” said Tentacles.

“The first batch of debts was $500 million…”

As Wang Zheng just finished his line, Tentacles’s faced had tuned pale. “Brother Charcoal, your wife is truly legendary. This ability of squandering the family’s money could be considered to be unsurpassed.”

Wang Zheng touched his head and replied,” You would also know that I’m a thrifty person. Sigh. However, the problem still has to be resolved. Is there a way?”

Tentacles pondered seriously. “It isn’t impossible. $500 million might seem like a lot but it wasn’t truly a lot. Just think about the fact that one hour in the World of Saints would require ten thousand dollars. In fact, money was the only thing that weren’t lacking in this place. It was just that you would need some methods to earn it.”

“Trading, robbing, forming an organization and et cetera were all ways to raise money. However, it would be either too troublesome or too slow. If you want quick money, there is only one way to earn a huge sum quickly.” said Tentacles.

“Oh, said it quickly!” Wang Zheng was only worried that he could earn the money by himself.

“Starting a life and death match!” said Tentacles. “However, the risks are too high.”

“Please elaborate.”

Tentacles hesitated for a while and replied,” I wouldn’t recommend you to do it. A life and death match was a type of duel. However, the one who set it up had has to face any challenger from anywhere. However, you could set the requirements for the challengers. However, if you were to lose, whatever you had in the World of Saints would be transferred to the other person. At the same time, you would have to exit the World of Saints and wouldn’t be able to enter ever again.

Wang Zheng was thinking about it. This was indeed a way to earn money.

“Besides that, if the life and death match was to gain some fame, there would also be large amount of spectators. This would be suitable for a duelling clause. The victor could obtain a certain ratio of the spectating fees. This was the only way one could earn money in a short period of time. However, it would be too dangerous.” Tentacles paused for a moment and seemed to disapprove of it.

“The problem was how I could attract people over to compete?”

If the price was too low, there wouldn’t be meaning in it. If it was too high, there wouldn’t be anyone at all and he would just be staring at space.

“Brother Charcoal, you have forgotten that you had earned the rights for the trial to become a Saint. Whoever wins against you would also receive these rights. There are many people who would want it. Moreover, they would only lose some money if they failed and there would be more people who wouldn’t care about it. Usually, only those who wished to become famous would do this.

A life and death match could make one person become famous in a short amount of time. At the same time, the person might gain the good graces of various large organisations. Those who had started a life and death match would be very cautious and would call it off after a few rounds.

Wang Zheng clapped his hands violently. This would be the solution!

“Cough cough. The life and death match would require the life and death card. This… I will think of a way to get it.” said Tentacles.

“Haha that would be great. Alright, I won’t be courteous with you!”

Wang Zheng suddenly felt that accepting Tentacles as a follower was a wise decision. He was definitely his most capable follower. The only thing he needed in the World of Saints would be the Cultivation Technique. Other things had no meaning for him.

However, this duel wasn’t for dueling purposes but to create some fuss about it so as to attract sufficient spectators. It wouldn’t be enough to just fight match after match. It seemed that he had to ponder about it.

Tentacles had left and went to several places. After which, he had turned on the hidden mode. In this mode, he would appear “offline” in the buddy list.

However, Tentacles hadn’t really left.

“Is everything settled?”

“What about the things I wanted?”

“Hehe, that was a wise decision. Our Shadow Organisation has always been truthful. This is the life and death card and the 16 Point Tempest Cultivation Technique that you wanted.” The laughter of the man in a grey robe had caused Tentacles to reveal an uncomfortable look.

It might be because he had discovered this. “I wasn’t trying to ridicule you. Those who could recognise the time and circumstances were wise people. He had offended so many people previously. The key thing is that he had also offended the people in the upper management and has to die. We are only going with the flow. With the Tempest Cultivation Technique coupled with your gifts, you would definitely have a great future.”

“You can save the nonsense.”

The trade window was opened. The man in the grey robe was rather direct and had disappeared rapidly after completing the trade.

Looking at the life and death card and the Tempest Cultivation Technique crystal card, Tentacles wasn’t looking fine.

The reason why he wasn’t willing to come to the Acolytes’ level was because he didn’t want to go under the wings of anyone. However, it wouldn’t be that easy to go under the wings of a huge organisation. All along, only the small fries had approached him till he met Charcoal. Initially, he did not pay much attention to him. However, the opportunity had come when he received the trial to become a Saint.

Without a doubt, Tentacles was a smart person. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be helping people to pass the Trials.

After spending some time with Charcoal, he felt that this person was truly not bad. He had started to regret. However, there were already people looking for him. The people Charcoal had offended this time were too terrifying. The Shadow Organisation was a ubiquitous information agency and part of the Assassin Alliance. If Tentacles was to reject, Charcoal might be fine but he would be finished.

However, he had agreed to the Shadow Organisation’s request. He was just giving it a try and this wouldn’t mean he would be successful. He had not expected Wang Zheng to raise it himself. Could this be the will of heaven?

The life and death card was also known as the Seizing card that seized everything from someone.

How could money be earned so easily? How much was conscience worth? He wasn’t willing to accompany Wang Zheng to death.
