2591 Battle for Clean Stones
Anyway, Han Fei was not afraid now. It didn’t matter if he had a showdown with them. Anyway, they were already here. If they weren’t tempted, they could leave on their own.
However, even if someone wanted to leave now, if fewer people left, they might not be able to return to the Hundred Alliance City.
Along the way, they caused too much noise and killed countless mine demons along the way, which would inevitably cause many mine demons to scramble for food. Therefore, the way back might not be safe. And a small number of people couldn’t achieve the effect of an army.
Therefore, at this moment, Han Fei decided to lay his cards on the table. So what if he said that the Bloody Hand Mine Devils were contaminated by the ominous? You can go if you’re afraid!
He was sure that these people wouldn’t leave, because the people who came this time were all strong masters in the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm or above. Although many people hadn’t dealt with the ominous, there were strong masters of the divine beast lineage here! Also, the City of Scavengers and the City of Origin were very experienced with dealing with the ominous. They had sent out such a comprehensive force this time. If necessary, they would definitely take action.
Therefore, someone immediately looked at the leader of the City of Origin and said, “An Shanbei, I heard that your Chaotic Wasteland deals with the ominous all year round. You should have a way to deal with the ominous, right?”
Someone echoed, “The northern expedition army is one. Isn’t it said that there are more than 30,000 Bloody Hand Mine Devils below? Those are 30,000 perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators. If we aren’t safe, why would we risk our lives to help you kill so many Bloody Hand Mine Devils?”
However, An Shanbei looked at the person from the City of Scavengers and then said, “First of all, we didn’t know that the Bloody Hand Mine Devil contained ominous power. Otherwise, we would have arranged for the Chaotic Wasteland to send supplies to cleanse the ominous power. However, how much can we have now? If we solely rely on our reserves, we definitely can’t eliminate so many Bloody Hand Mine Devils. I just don’t know how much reserves the City of Scavengers and the City of Wanderers have.”
Everyone looked at Luo Chen. He was the leader of the City of Scavengers this time. He thought to himself, We have just received the Clean Stones and you are already targeting us?
However, Luo Chen was not easy to deal with. He said, “Even your City of Origin doesn’t have much reserves. How much can we have? More importantly, those are mine demons in the perfected Star Transformation Realm. We can’t kill one of them with one Clean Stone. If we just use Clean Stones, even a hundred thousand Clean Stones might not be enough to kill a thousand Bloody Hand Mine Devils.”
There was no need to ask Chen Tianya. Chen Tianya said, “There are only ten people from our City of Wanderers. It’s useless even if you look at me. My boss is not here. Even if he is, he doesn’t have so many Clean Stones! Clean Stones are only used in the Chaotic Wasteland. Under normal circumstances, who would bring a huge number of Clean Stones to the Infinite Mining Area?”
Luo Chen nodded. “Yes! But I remember that there is a long-term deal between the Capital of Horror and our Chaotic Wasteland. Some of the Clean Stones in our Chaotic Wasteland will be sent to the Capital of Horror through the Infinite Mining Area. A while ago, we happened to sell a batch of them! I wonder if Miss Wushuang has brought some with you?”
Wushuang said calmly, “Sorry, I’m new to the Chaotic Wasteland and haven’t come into contact with this matter for the time being. However, I can ask my subordinates. Perhaps they should carry some with them. After all, several of them are specialized in transporting Clean Stones.”
For a moment, the four factions including the City of Origin refused to admit that they had many Clean Stones. Of course, at this point, knowing there was the ominous here, how could they reveal the number of Clean Stones they really had if they were not stupid?
The four major sects were shirking responsibility in terms of the Clean Stone.
Wushuang glanced in the direction of the camp of the Capital of Horror. After a while, she said, “Everyone, wait a moment. Someone on our side can return to the Hundred Alliance City through the Sea of Stars and bring some Clean Stones over. However, the Clean Stones we bought from the City of Origin and the City of Scavengers have been shipped away in batches. I’m not sure how much is left.”
After that, Wushuang signaled with her eyes, and someone from the Capital of Horror returned to his Origin Star.
After the person left, Wushuang said, “As a necessary thing in the Chaotic Wasteland, I don’t believe you don’t have any. Both of you are strong masters with four Dao Locks, second only to the person in charge in your respective factions. You’re responsible for almost half of the matters in your respective fractions. Although you say you don’t have many Clean Stones, you should be able to take out hundreds of millions, right?”
Wang Xiaojiu said, “Hey, how much do you two have? Tell us. If you can’t even make this little contribution at this time, believe it or not, I’ll kill you right now.”
Mo Jiu also said, “You people are too scheming. This is a critical moment to find the Land of Inheritance. If we screw up because of the two of you, don’t blame us for being angry.”
This time, the divine beasts didn’t argue with the ferocious beasts, because what Mo Jiu said was true. If because of these people, the 20,000 people couldn’t conquer the Mine Demon Stream, even if their divine beasts prided themselves on justice, they wouldn’t be able to help but touch the City of Origin and the City of Scavengers.
For a moment, Luo Chen and An Shanbei felt as if they were constipated. The two of them were really annoyed, but they looked at Chen Tianya at the same time, thinking, If we’re besieged, you won’t have a good time either.
However, Chen Tianya simply said, “I only have a total of 100 million Clean Stones. If you don’t believe me, you can let someone enter my Origin Star to investigate. I will release all the restrictions on my Origin Star. Really, I don’t mind at all.”
After that, Chen Tianya sighed. “After all, our City of Wanderers is new here. In terms of heritage and strength, we’re definitely incomparable to the City of Origin and the City of Scavengers. I dare to open my Origin Star, but do you dare to? Do you have a lot of Clean Stones but are unwilling to contribute them to us?”
Chen Tianya thought to himself, My Clean Stones are all on the Human Butcher, but who knows? Anyway, there are only ten people from the City of Wanderers here, and each of us has a little bit of Clean Stones with us in case of emergencies. Even if I take out all my 100 million Clean Stones, it won’t be a problem.
Hearing what Chen Tianya said, Luo Chen and An Shanbei were already cursing in their hearts. This time, they had come fully prepared. The number of Clean Stones they carried with them exceeded one billion.
At this moment, Wushuang’s men hadn’t returned yet, but if Luo Chen and An Shanbei didn’t give the others an explanation, they would immediately arouse everyone’s hostility.
Of course, they wouldn’t be as bold as Chen Tianya. Fortunately, the Origin Star was the most secretive place for cultivators. Under normal circumstances, no one would allow anyone to secretly investigate their Origin Star.
This time was no exception. An Shanbei said, “Our City of Origin can offer 300 million. Everyone, let me make it clear. There’s nothing more. Even if I return home, I won’t have any.”
Luo Chen’s face turned black. This b*stard is forcing me to take out at least 300 million Clean Stones!
Sure enough, Luo Chen said with an awful look, “Please forgive me, but I can only provide three hundred million. After all, the Clean Stones can only be earned by fighting ominous creatures. So, the supply of three hundred million Clean Stones means the death of three hundred million ominous creatures.”
Wushuang said, “In view of the rarity of the Clean Stones, which can only be produced in the Chaotic Wasteland, we won’t take the Clean Stones in your hands for nothing. After this operation is over, we will take out some of our acquired resources and give them to you, or buy your Clean Stones at the original price. In any case, we won’t let you suffer a loss.”
Wang Xiaojiu asked curiously, “Three hundred million plus three hundred million, that’s six hundred million.”
Chen Tianya interjected, “I can take out eighty million, and the ten of us will keep twenty million. I don’t think anyone will have any objection, right?”
Wang Xiaojiu tilted her head and glanced at Chen Tianya, and then said, “680 million, that’s a lot! Isn’t this enough to purify some Bloody Hand Mine Devils?”
Chen Tianya said, “It’s hard to say. We have Clean Stones of all levels, including Explorer-level ones. For the Bloody Hand Mine Devils in the perfected Star Transformation Realm, it’s probably as useless as being bitten by an ant. Therefore, even with the supply of the Capital of Horror, even if the number of Clean Stones exceeds a billion, it might not be enough to kill tens of thousands of Bloody Hand Mine Devils.”
Wang Xiaojiu was about to complain, when Chen Tianya continued, “However, if the Clean Stone is not used to deal with the Bloody Hand Mine Devil but to purify ourselves, then a billion will definitely be enough.”
An Shanbei and Luo Chen echoed at the same time, “That’s right.”
Finally, someone nodded. “So now it seems that the ominous crisis has been resolved?”
Wushuang shook her head. “Not necessarily! The premise is that you aren’t seriously contaminated by the ominous. Otherwise, even the Clean Stone might not be able to completely purify you.”
Someone said, “Of course. If everything is settled by this stone, why are so many of us here?”
Han Fei said with a smile, “If you want fewer people to die, you’d better split the Clean Stones. If each of you gets tens of thousands, it might work.”
Someone looked sideways. “What do you mean? Are these Clean Stones not enough?”
Han Fei shrugged. “I didn’t say that. You should feel lucky that you found the Bloody Hand Mine Devil’s only weakness. I’m just reminding you that that thing is really strong. You can’t completely rely on this stone.”
At this moment, a figure appeared out of thin air. It was the person from the Capital of Horror who had just entered his Origin Star.
As soon as the person appeared, he nodded at Wushuang.
Wushuang said, “Five hundred million. We happen to have the last batch of five hundred million in stock. We haven’t had the time to send them away.”
