Chapter 510: Second meeting
“Sky Elephant?”
Yang Shi looked at the paper from Meng Xiangjiang, and the name of the reinforcements shook his heart.
Behind the two words wasn’t battle squad, team, mercenary squad, etc; it was division.
Were they just a part of another faction? How strong would the faction be? How much could they help Cloud Port Alliance?
“Right, Sky Elephant Division, they belong to the t1 resistance region.”
Yang Shi, Rong Cheng, and the other five stars evolved Lan En, and Duan Jing were silent. They had never heard of a t1 resistance region.
“We hadn’t come into contact with them, but it doesn’t mean… They have no movement.”
Meng Xiangjiang pointed above and smiled mysteriously.
“You are saying?!”
Duan Jing moved his body forward, and his face was shocked.
“It is confirmed.” Meng Xiangjiang squinted his eyes and used his stable voice, “Don’t you all find it weird? The apocalypse is here, but there isn’t a large-scale resistance. Things might be messy, or there might be other reasons… Contact, fighting for themselves, etc. But we can't deny that they look official.”
“We can’t go into too much detail, but you must understand.”
Apart from Duan Jing, the other three weren’t happy.
People above?
A few of them laughed coldly. You say that they are higher-ups. Who can prove it? They didn’t appear at the start and only appear when the factions take shape.
They look like they want to kill or steal.
The basic order was broken, and did they think that things would be convenient and easy if they used the name of the government?
The faction bosses were used to being in control, so would they give it up?
A few of them looked at Meng Xiangjiang; what was he thinking? Was he not defending against them?
“A year has passed, and many things have taken shape; it isn’t easy to shake it.”
The old man stood up and walked to the window to look at the city they had built, “Be it the Ying City Alliance, the Sky Elephant Division, or our alliance, we are a part of the apocalypse. Nothing can change it. There is only one way to change it, which is war.”
“Right, not a battle but a war!”
Meng Xiangjiang scoffed, “Everyone would fight for their interests. To return to the past order, one must defeat all the factions. But is that practical?”
A few of them lowered their heads but knew it was impractical or impossible. This world wouldn’t go back to the past.
“So what are all of you worried about? As long as this Sky Elephant Division can help us protect Cloud Port and help us pay less, isn’t that okay?”
“Okay, don’t care about the negotiations; they are here to work for payment; let’s give them some benefits.”
………………………………………………………………………………
“Clear the city?”
Ye Zhongming heard Mo Ye’s words. He thought about it and smiled.
“They are planning to give us some benefits.”
“What benefits?”
Liang Chuyin played around with the badge on her chest. On it was a marked number, and she casually asked.
“With Cloud Port Alliance’s strength, they could clear the monsters in this region. There isn’t someone as strong as Talking Lady or Rat King. But to give their subordinates a chance to hunt, they allowed these lifeforms to survive.”
“Just like what you are doing in Ying City?” Liang Chuyin raised her head and moved towards Ye Zhongming.
The influencer received some promise from Xia Lei and was very close to Ye Zhongming. She would have slept with him if not for the team living outdoors.
Ye Zhongming didn’t avoid her, but he didn’t act warmly. It was best if such things moved naturally.
“At this stage, killing all the mutated lifeforms isn't good. We really can’t clear Ying City due to its strength and size. But Cloud Port isn’t big, and there are many survivors here. They could do it. They are asking us to help to give us some benefits, also…”
Ye Zhongming frowned, “This means the situation is more dangerous than we thought.”
The room was filled with core Cloud Peak members, and they understood instantly.
If not for them needing help, they would allow the mutated lifeforms in the city to exist. They would let them kill each other and evolve. Now that they planned to clear them out, they just wanted to earn a quick buck. It was obvious that they weren’t confident in defending the place.
“How is the investigation?”
Ye Zhongming didn’t continue discussions on this topic. He would just eat it since they were giving them a piece of meat.
Young Master Yun nodded, “It isn’t hard to find. Based on your clues, I spent some demon crystals and found where 414 Running Squad was.”
“En.”
Ye Zhongming nodded.
………………………………………………………………………………
“Medical Pearl, five level-two crystals! They are high quality.”
“Grey battle gloves, one two-star potion. It is a new one!”
“Red Pattern Clam Shield, white grade. Exchange for a three-star potion or job advancement scroll. Those with no money move aside!”
“Top quality twins, one night for five level one crystal, only one star evolved allowed!”
“Battle Beast Egg, does anyone want it? To the best bidder!”
“Selling information about where the Electric Shooter Jellyfishes are. Share format, based on contribution!”
“I want to purchase a grey protective gear; scammers scram.”
“All sorts of materials, prices are reasonable!”
This was a famous trading street in the city. People who came here the first time would feel like they were in a different world.
But this was the busiest place in Cloud Port. It was similar to Ying City’s Puxing Town, but the rules here were more strict, and it was built a long time ago.
“You want to buy Purple Ink Urchin at that price? Scram, don’t make noise!” A fatty shook his head impatiently.
Little Peng looked at the few level-two crystals in his hand and sighed. He knew it wasn’t enough, but he wanted to try his luck. But the truth proved that no one was a fool.
He stood up and wanted to leave. Factions without headquarters in the city weren’t allowed to spend the night here.
“You want Purple Ink Urchin?”
A voice rang out from behind Little Peng. He turned and saw Ye Zhongming for the second time.
