Chapter 832: Chapter 324: Two Sources of Abnormal Objects (6k)_3
"Sorry for being a little late, I hope I didnāt keep you waiting."
"Not at all, itās just that we arrived early."
"Miss Fan Mao, no need to be so formal..."
The Seventh Rank individuals present responded courteously, their expressions even more respectful than when they were in the Star Sky Transfer Zone, their smiles even broader.
Letās not mention anything else, Bai Yiās identity alone is enough to make them act this way.
Moreover, something even more important, originally shielded in the Transfer Zone by Paradise preventing their perception, now in the Starry Sky, they can clearly sense the subtle threat emanating from Bai Yi.
An identity higher than theirs, one that can bring benefits, and strength superior.
What more is there to say? Just flatter her.
As for those few at the 8th Rank, although not as deferential as the Seventh Rank individuals, they were not as aloof as one might expect.
Gathered in the center of the meeting area, for these strong individuals, Bai Yi has had multiple encounters before and thus didnāt indulge in platitudes.
This time, her visit clearly entails numerous plans; however, Bai Yi didnāt rush, knowing that even pushing a phantom needs money, much less these high-tier strong individuals.
Once settled, she began the first process of the meeting by presenting the potions she had brought.
Even without Paradiseās appraisal, Bai Yiās previously established trust ensured no one foolishly doubted the authenticity of Bai Yiās belongings.
Accumulated over fifty potions were swiftly divided amongst them.
Until the last potion was acquired by a Seventh Rank individual who tucked it away, the meeting fell into a tacit silence, waiting for Bai Yi to speak.
As the first potion gathering ever held in the Starry Sky, they had already guessed it would undoubtedly be unusual upon hearing the news.
With presumptions already in place, Bai Yi didnāt bother with gradual preludes, opting for directness.
"I believe everyone has speculated on why Iām hosting the first potion gathering in the Starry Sky, so let me clarify it right here.
Yes, after this event, Iām formally intending for our alliance to be public in the Starry Sky, stepping onto the stage, and contending against those two pharmacists!"
The high-tier individuals present exchanged glances, seeing the anticipated confirmation in each otherās eyes.
This decision wasnāt difficult to guess; Miss Fan Mao clearly wouldnāt establish such an alliance simply for them, even with the Star Sky Coin earned, which is a substantial figure for an individual.
Even nurturing a smaller planet-level civilization would suffice.
Evidently, this isnāt the objective, so the allianceās effect can only be their collective influence.
They had already received enough benefits from Fan Maoās hands, showing no intention to refuse when asked for influence.
Moreover, even if they arenāt being used, the Medicine Alliance has gradually drawn attention, something they also noticed. They even encounter probes occasionally.
But as fellow high-tier individuals, how could they remain indifferent to such provocations forever, only hesitant due to a lack of confirmation?
Now, with finally the opportunity to counter, they all raised a sense of readiness for battle.
Seeing that none of them expressed dissent, Bai Yi continued:
"With mutual support from all of you, the Medicine Alliance has already achieved a modest scale, with over forty high-level strong individuals in our ranks, equivalent in influence to the groups formed by the other two pharmacists.
The capability has long been available; I just hadnāt proposed it due to previous limitations in Paradiseās rules.
But now that I have the ability to traverse the Starry Sky, itās time to cause them trouble!"
As soon as she spoke, a Seventh Rank individual promptly responded.
"Tell us, what do you need us to do?"
"Exactly, Iāve long been displeased with them. They saw us as threats and marginalized us initially. Now that weāre alliances of our own, they still try to pressure us. Itās time to show them a thing or two!"
"Miss Fan Mao, this isnāt just your thought; itās ours as well. As long as we are dealing with those guys, weāre willing to contribute!"
"..."
During the exchange of words, Bai Yi didnāt expect this group of Seventh Rank individuals to have their grievances as well. This proposalās acceptance was far higher than anticipated.
Whether itās accumulated resentment or simply attempting to appease her, the outcome, for now, is extremely favorable.
Originally, she considered these high-tier individuals driven by benefits, preparing to offer some potions as a promiseāsince potions donāt cost her much, mostly valued for their added worth.
But now it appears that cost can be spared.
Yet what these Seventh Rank individuals say doesnāt decide things alone; she turned to the three 8th Rank individuals who joined the gathering. Their participation or absence significantly affects the ultimate difficulty.
But according to Bai Yiās calculations, they had long inferred the purpose of this gathering, having chosen to join in implied a predetermined outcome.
"I can participate."
"So can I..."
"Count me in!"
All three of them agreed, giving Bai Yi confidence.
"Alright, itās settled then. So regarding specific actions, whatās your advice?
Where should we start, and what about their intel?"
Though she had prepared over the past couple of days, investigating potential opponents for this event, such inquiries arenāt as informed as these high-tier individuals familiar with the Starry Sky.
