Chapter 483: Chapter 237: Thoroughly Squeeze Dry (6k)_2
But choosing such a coincidental timing to approach when the investment qualifications were issued, Bai Yi understood the otherās intention: hoping to use the invested party as a bridge to communicate with her.
What does the other party want to say?
Bai Yi did not hesitate much before agreeing to the otherās request.
After all, communicating wouldnāt cause any loss to her; inside the virtual instance, frankly speaking, itās like chatting in an online gameās conversation feature.
Moreover, their people are still in Donglin, Bai Yiās completely dominant base camp, and a few invested "protagonist group" have grown significantly during this time.
Even at Tier Six, they count as a powerful presence in Bai Yiās territory, not fearing the other party stirring up any storm.
Perhaps there might even be some surprises.
Bai Yi has always believed in other Lordsā ability to stir things up; after all, nobody knows who will have an adventure, gaining something beyond her understanding.
She communicated directly through the panel, agreeing to the request, and Donglinās higher-ups immediately arranged a meeting for the party with the two siblings.
What Bai Yi didnāt expect was that the other party truly gave her a complete surprise.
As soon as the other party arrived at the waiting room for the meeting, after inspecting the surroundings with an unknown tool in hand, they didnāt conceal but straightforwardly said:
"Unknown but powerful friend, would you be willing to cooperate once?"
The two siblings heard this, exchanged glances, both saw the astonishment and understanding in each otherās eyes, and immediately guessed that this was definitely not directed at them, so they waited calmly.
Unexpectedly, they found that not only were they receiving aid from a powerful entity...
The two immediately thought of those community members with certain combat abilities they had seen outside Donglin, guessing that they probably also received help.
But clearly, those peopleās powerful entities were not as grand as theirs.
Indeed, in just a few seconds, they heard the voice that appeared during their most critical moments and granted them strength, decisively serving as the repeater for the communication between great entities.
"Tell me the terms. You should be aware of and have witnessed my strength, so what exactly can you offer to persuade me to cooperate with you?"
Itās not just the psychological advantage brought by Bai Yiās inherent strength, even among the conversationās participants, the realityās pressure caused by the siblingsā own strength seemed to solidify, ready to crush the newcomer.
However, the party clearly came prepared, immediately presenting their well-prepared reasoning.
"Indeed, I canāt compete with you in terms of strength, but what if I say I can find ways to provide a crucial piece to your plan?"
"I believe that with your strength, it absolutely wonāt be as speculated by other communities, as merely wanting to use this as a slogan to lead humanity in retaking this planet for more reward.
After all, we both know our time is limited, and this canāt produce sufficient yield.
Your goal has always been to completely eliminate monsters, hasnāt it...
And now you have enough strength, and I can offer a way to reach the Monster World; how about this cooperation term?"
This revelation didnāt only surprise Bai Yi; even the two siblings in the meeting room widened their eyes, eager to immediately question whether the statement was true.
When it comes to hatred for monsters, theyāre not less than anyone else. Not being completely infected by Bai Yi nor entirely becoming "Bai Yi", they continue to be guided by their original emotions.
Yet, neither opened their mouths; theyāre equally aware that all decisions rest in the hands of that great entity, whose decisions have never disappointed them, allowing them to wait calmly.
And just as they anticipated, Bai Yi, upon hearing these terms through the panelās peeping, was immediately moved.
Scoring points from counterattacks is secondary, but the knowledge of space ability held by the other party is the main point!
Indeed, you never know what eccentric surprises the Lords might bring.
Though Bai Yi wanted to grasp the otherās knowledge, having Shang Ji by her side for so long, sheās learned a lot; thus she didnāt agree immediately, choosing instead to bluff.
"How do you know I donāt have a way?"
"This is, of course, just my speculation. If you already have absolute confidence in launching an assault on the Monster World, then with your strength, like last week, you wouldnāt reveal the plan to prevent leaks.
If this time youāre publicizing it extensively, itās clearly because the plan still has critical gaps, seeking help this way.
And Iām merely responding to your invitation."
In an unknown instance, faced with the panel, another Lord felt a twinge in his heart, even though he had already anticipated hearing such a response, he was thoroughly prepared.
But confronting such a question from a stronger party, he couldnāt help but feel nervous, for judging by this displayed strength, it has evidently reached that entityās level, perhaps even stronger!
Luckily, the one he invested in has a strong heart, capable of withstanding this pressure.
Truthfully, he merely took a gamble this time, lacking absolute certainty, which is the root of his nervousness.
This Cycle Challenge is something he is determined to win; itās his last chance to overturn things. If the gains arenāt enough to enable him to achieve sufficient combat strength, heāll have no choice but to yield to that entity...
