Chapter 590: Cross race cooperation
After the level five wheel’s challenge ended, the bloody stench on the island was so thick that it couldn’t dissipate.
Although the purple equipment caused the other battles to look less interesting, to survive and to get the rewards, each lifeform tried its best.
A smooth challenge caused Cloud Peak’s reputation to rise, but the other factions were also suppressing them.
They were too strong, especially with the purple equipment; others were so jealous that their eyes turned red.
Under such a situation, many factions who agreed to sell the beast items to Cloud Peak went against their word.
Thus, Ye Zhongming didn’t gain anything from this challenge.
He was helpless, but there was nothing he could do.
When the level six wheel began, it was ice cold. The ocean beasts faced the problem of demon crystals, so they didn’t challenge. As for humans, Xia Bai was there, so many experts hesitated.
They were not her match, but she had one more challenge chance. What would happen if she appeared on the level six wheel?
There was also the Cloud Peak boss who hadn’t made a move. He would appear on the level six wheel as this was the only chance to get a prize. As for the level seven wheel, he could appear there, but did he have that many level seven crystals?
They naturally didn’t know that Ye Zhongming did have that many…
“Let’s do a trade.”
Ye Zhongming, who was planning to participate, heard a clear voice. His eyes twitched, and he forced himself to calm down.
Mental Communication!
Ye Zhongming was familiar with this way of talking, as Yangos had left a deep impression on him.
Ye Zhongming tried to calm down and looked towards the level eight Pliosaurus.
This fellow was the one. But the one talking to him was a weird-looking level six ocean beast beside it with white hair similar to humans.
“We need the things on the wheel but can’t spin it.”
From a human standpoint, they had revealed their weakness and placed themselves in a bad situation in the negotiation. But it was understandable for ocean beasts.
They did have intellect, but they were weaker in some areas.
“Is it your words or the Pliosaurus?”
Ye Zhongming kept silent for a moment before asking him through mental communication.
That level-six beast was shocked and didn’t expect the human to grasp such a skill.
“You shock me.” That ocean beast with strong mental energy said, “Pliosaurus, are you referring to our king?”
Ye Zhongming nodded. It seemed like the Pliosaurus couldn’t communicate directly with mental communication. That wasn’t its strength, so it found this weird beast to be the bridge.
“We will help you defeat your other opponents. Your people will win all the rewards. We want to unique rewards.”
Although he wasn’t good at speaking, Ye Zhongming understood. As there were too few six-star human evolved, even if the ocean beasts killed all the six-star humans, the money wasn’t enough to spin the wheel. That meant that they couldn’t get any rewards.
But it was obvious that the higher-level wheels were far more attractive to the ocean beasts. The rewards on the level six wheel were things that the Pliosaurus wanted.
But these fellows were cunning and didn’t say what they needed. They said they wanted all five rewards.
The conditions weren’t too much, and it was quite good. But they were asking for help, so Ye Zhongming definitely wouldn’t give up such a chance.
“I can only give you one; you can choose.”
“We need demon crystals, a lot.”
“I need precious materials, many.”
“I need you to sign a contract that we won’t invade each other.”
Ye Zhongming said his conditions and waited for them to reply.
“Human, your greed shocks me.”
After the beast and the Pliosaurus communicated, the level eight Pliosaurus stared at Ye Zhongming with thick killing intent. He was infuriated by his demands.
“Your words sound very human.” Ye Zhongming wasn’t affected.
The weird beast looked at Ye Zhongming and continued to communicate with Pliosaurus.
“Your conditions are too strict. We can only agree to give you the demon crystal and materials, but we want all five rewards. Moreover, the contract is impossible; we have our pride.”
Ye Zhongming looked down and tried to hide his joy.
He knew what the contract meant. It was just to scare them off so that he could bargain with them.
“Say what is the highest you can give; make it clear as the challenge is starting soon.”
Ye Zhongming crossed his arms and felt his breathing speed up.
Another communication. When the voice rang out again, he felt his heart beating intensely.
Humans fought one another in the apocalypse, much less beasts that killed each other to get energy.
The number of ocean beasts meant their fights were far more cruel than those of humans on land.
Ye Zhongming’s demands seemed strict, but was that a problem to the cold Pliosaurus? Don’t forget that many others, like the Pliosaurus, were fighting for the chance to evolve a second time.
It needed to sweep the ocean, and he could meet Ye Zhongming’s requirements.
After all, demon crystals were useless to them.
As for materials, they were the same as the crystals. Apart from those they could use themselves, the others were at the bottom of the ocean.
These things were valuable to humans, but to ocean lifeforms, they were no different from pieces of stone.
This was why Ye Zhongming added the contract condition. Think about it: if Ye Zhongming told them he wanted a stone that they couldn’t use or a stone with a gold bar, how would the Pliosaurus reply? If he just wanted the stone, the Pliosaurus wouldn’t want to give him too many, not the better ones. If he added the gold bar, his attention would be on the bar. He wouldn’t care about the stone.
Ye Zhongming also mentioned that time was nearly up, making the Pliosaurus think that Ye Zhongming didn’t care much.
“Happy cooperation!’ Ye Zhongming transmitted his intent and looked at the calm Pliosaurus and weird beast.
“You want to work together for the level seven wheel? I can, too.” He smiled happily.
