Chapter 273: Bloody Profit!

“Greetings, Senior.” Wang Ye bowed respectfully.
The Pokemon-like weapon spirit before him was probably an old monster that had been around for countless eras. Leaving a good impression was definitely the right thing to do.
From what it said just now, he could tell that the ball of white lightning was the treasure that had given birth to it.
Therefore, this was the internal space, which was its world.
Since you’ve collected enough dark crystals, 1’11 answer three simple questions.” The white lightning weapon spirit said calmly.
“You’re not even as useful as Aladdin’s Magic Lamp!” was what Wang Ye wanted to retort.
Did the other party mean that it wouldn’t answer if the question was complicated?
Countless thoughts flashed through Wang Ye’s mind. Various information about the core region and the ten passages gathered in his mind as he pondered endlessly.
He wouldn’t waste time bargaining, lest he was treated as a problem.
It was most efficient to ask directly.
“The first question, may I ask senior, which passage contains treasures of the black realm’s master that are worth more than one million dark crystals?” Wang Ye went straight to the point.
Since there were only a limited number of questions, he would narrow down the scope, breaking down one question into several to obtain more information.
Buzz! Buzz!
“Passages 7, 8, 9, and 10.” With white lightning circling it, the weapon spirit’s voice sounded.
Wang Ye nodded and understood.
1 million dark crystals were equivalent to 100 trillion cosmic dollars.
This was the dividing line between the wealth of a Super Star-level and a Black Hole-level expert. It was also the lowest price for top-rank Dark Energy-level equipment.
An ordinary Super Star level 9 warrior would have a net worth of around 10,000 dark crystals. Those with a strong financial background could have a net worth of 100,000 dark crystals.
A beginner Black Hole-level expert had a net worth of more than a million dark crystals.
Not only did the white lightning weapon spirit’s answer give him a general understanding of the black realm’s master’s strength and wealth, but also allowed him to distinguish the distribution of the black realm’s treasures.
There was a high possibility that all ten passages had treasures!
“The second question, may 1 ask Senior, if I enter the ten passages, what is the probability of me surviving each one?” Wang Ye gradually increased the amount of information in his questions.
Three questions were far from enough.
Therefore, he needed a large amount of information to narrow down the scope and make more deductions.
Moreover, this question was also closely related to him.
To him, his gains were based on his survival. Once one died, it was useless no matter how much money was in one’s card.
The white lightning weapon spirit glanced at Wang Ye.
In an instant, Wang Ye felt as if he had been struck by a bolt of white lightning. He seemed to be seen through.
“You are very cunning, cosmic-level human, but your strength and potential are too weak. It’s impossible to predict the chances of survival,” The weapon spirit said half-heartedly. “It varies from person to person. It’s best if it suits you.”
Was that what he was asking?
The answer seemed to be off-topic…
However, there was still a lot of information.
Wang Ye didn’t argue. It was better to behave in front of such a powerful existence.
Moreover, he could hear the impatience in the white lightning weapon spirit’s tone.
Wang Ye pondered.
The first two questions had already shrunk the area to a very small size.
First, he asked about the possible gains, and second, he asked about survival.
As for the third question…
On the basis of obtaining information, he should increase some hidden possibilities.
“Thank you for your answer, senior. The third question… Since I am fated to come to Wuyuan Black Realm, I would like to know some of the past of the black realm’s master. If possible, may I pay my respects to him?” Wang Ye said respectfully.
“… That’s very thoughtful of you.” This time, the white lightning weapon spirit’s voice was much gentler.
Judging from its tone, its favorable impression of him should definitely be rising by now.
Flattery would never go wrong.
It also indirectly confirmed the relationship between the white lightning weapon spirit and the black realm’s master.
Sizzle.
White lightning flashed and Wang Ye suddenly felt the space around him change.
He could vaguely see the figure of a powerful human expert. The other party was wearing black gold armor and holding a lightning halberd. There was a strange black symbol on his chest that looked like two back-to-back semicircles.
At this moment, the other party was standing on a starship, proud and awe-inspiring. His head was raised high, showing his arrogance and fighting spirit.
!!!
Wang Ye was stunned.
This was the black realm’s master?
This was the starship of a cosmic pirate with the same symbol on his chest!
Wang Ye’s expression was calm, but his heart was in turmoil.
He had never thought that the black realm’s master would be a cosmic pirate…
The other party was arrogant and invincible in the cosmic. He had plundered countless wealth, killed countless experts, destroyed countless families, and made a name for himself.
Wu Yuan!
Just as he had imagined, the black realm’s master was very skilled in the path of space. Moreover, his physical body was extremely powerful, and his talent and bloodline were both above others.
The combination of lightning and the path of space made him invincible, and he was considered outstanding among experts of the same level.
The only thing that puzzled Wang Ye was… There was no white lightning ball.
He never saw Wu Yuan use the ball of white lightning in his battles.
Did he not need to use it or was it because of the white lightning ball that Wu Yuan was killed?
The scene was very short.
The surrounding space quickly returned to its original state.
White lightning rumbled and the white lightning weapon spirit formed again. It said to Wang Ye, “How do you feel?”
“Great! My greatest desire is to become the Cosmic Pirate King,” Wang Ye said
seriously. “I’ll be free and unfettered, having my way in the cosmic.”
Is that so? Aren’t you always with the cosmic adventurers?” asked Bai Lei.
Wang Ye laughed. “There’s no other way. Since I’m weak, I can only pretend. If I can’t even protect my life, what use are goals and ideals? Perhaps Senior doesn’t believe me, but 1 speak from the bottom of my heart.”
“Ever since I entered the cosmic, I’ve joined a pirate group, robbed demons and devils, as well as killed cosmic adventurers and cosmic nations’ families, but I’ve never killed a single pirate. It’s a pity that 1 wasn’t strong enough. The cosmic pirate group was forced to disband.”
The white lightning weapon spirit looked at Wang Ye.
“I believe you’re telling the truth,” It said after a while.
“You’re right. If you lose your life, what’s the use of having more…” The white lightning weapon spirit muttered to itself with endless regret.
Wang Ye bowed his head slightly. “I’m done with my questions. Please send me out, senior.”
He should stop while he was ahead.
The white lightning weapon spirit’s tone had changed from gentle to friendly as if he was an ally.
He had gained a lot just now, maybe…?
Chi!
Suddenly, a bolt of white lightning struck down without warning!
Wang Ye was shocked.
No way! Did he say something wrong?
Before he could react, the bolt of white lightning had already landed on his wrist. It disappeared, forming a white lightning mark that contained a huge amount of energy.
Wang Ye was stunned.
What was this?
“I’ll give you a talisman. You’re too weak,” The white lightning said. “It can trigger an attack anywhere in the black realm to save your life.”
“Thank you, Senior.” Wang Ye’s eyes lit up.
His trying to get on the good side of the weapon spirit had been too worth it!
Not only did he obtain a large amount of information, but he also obtained a lifesaving talisman in the black realm!
A bloody profit!
“Don’t be greedy. Go to passage 2.” The white lightning weapon spirit’s voice fell into Wang Ye’s ears. In the next instant, he felt the surrounding space change, twisting and distorting. The scene had changed.
Swoosh!
Wang Ye returned to the white lightning ball.
Behind him was still the majestic white lightning. Its aura was incomparably powerful, but it inexplicably felt more intimate.
“He’s out!
So fast?”
Almost all the experts in the core area were gathered outside the white lightning ball.
Even if they hadn’t seen Wang Ye enter, they had received the news and gathered around.
They were all waiting.
Wang Ye’s appearance was like a stone that caused a thousand ripples.
What had he experienced?
What was inside the ball of white lightning?
What information did he get?
Everyone wanted to know.
Wang Ye’s gaze swept across the crowd. He had a myriad of thoughts in his mind. He quickly sorted out his thoughts and said, “Inside is the white lightning weapon spirit. It will answer three questions.”
A weapon spirit!
What level of treasure was this?
No wonder it was so terrifying!
Everyone looked at the huge ball covered in white lightning with reverence and desire.
“What did you ask?” A brown-haired man asked.
“Yes, tell us quickly!” The other white-robed youth said anxiously.
“Why should I?” Wang Ye smiled.
Ha!
Pin-drop silence.
The expressions of the Dark Energy-level experts changed.
“Of course, I will tell the two seniors who trusted me unconditionally.” Wang Ye’s gaze fell on the heavy-armored man and the voluptuous woman and nodded at them.
“Are you courting death?” The young man in white gritted his teeth, and his eyes shone with a fierce light.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Yi Nai’er’s Dark Energy level 9 slaves instantly shielded Wang Ye.
“You don’t think that this trash is useful, do you?” The white-robed youth sneered.
“If you want information, go ask yourself.” The heavily armored man came forward. His burly body exuded a strong aura, causing the white-robed youth’s expression to change. “There are still three more chances. You can enter after spending 100,000 cosmic dollars worth of dark crystals.”
“They’ve almost bought everything!” A short man frowned.
“That’s your problem.” The voluptuous woman was flirtatious. “You’re not willing to pay anything, wanting to go around and get things free. How can there be such a good thing? This boy doesn’t have the obligation to tell you.”
“Brother Gang, Madam Yan, are you sure you want to protect this brat? You may be strong, but there are so many of us. We’re not afraid of you,” The brown-haired man said.
“You can try making a move, but I forgot to tell you.” Wang Ye, who had been silent all this while, smiled. “Fighting is forbidden here. Otherwise, you’ll be attacked by white lightning.”
“Impossible!” The brown-haired man widened his eyes.
“You’re bluffing!” The white-robed youth snorted coldly.
The others looked at each other, all somewhat apprehensive. After all, they had witnessed the power of the white lightning.
“Ha, why don’t I, Mengzor, believe you?” A heavy aura descended from behind.
The heavily-armored man frowned as if he was facing a great enemy.
A tall and mighty man with a vast aura appeared, arrogant and domineering. The huge axe in his hand seemed to be able to cut through everything.
Wang Ye’s eyes lit up.
The white lightning mark on his right wrist flashed.
Boom!
Space distorted, and a terrifying bolt of white lightning descended without any warning, landing on Mengzor’s body with extreme precision.
His mountain-like body did not even experience the sensation. The second he came into contact with the white lightning, he turned into nothingness. Even the huge axe in his hand disappeared without a trace.
!!!
Everyone was dumbfounded.
It was too terrifying!
“Now, we can talk.” Wang Ye smiled..
