Chapter 197: Chapter 133: Negotiation for Cooperation – I Want Tier Two Rock-Horned Horse Source Material (2)

“At the very beginning, the Hunter Squad that entered the ruins’ depths actually had five Special-level Hunters and one One-star Hunter, but after they suffered heavy losses, they remained silent about it…”

“This led us to open the sealed door and directly face attacks from a Tier Three Distortion King and several Corruptors. Not only did we suffer severe losses, but now even the top three layers of the ruins have been occupied by a large number of mutants.”

Zheng Yan Ying furrowed her brows slightly, dismissively said:

“This has nothing to do with us. Ultimately, it’s because you wanted to access the machinery in the underground military factory that you released this group of mutant monsters.”

“So, are you here for something? If not, we’re off to other ruins to try our luck again.”

Bai Ye looked at everyone and nodded slightly:

“The main reason for this visit is to express gratitude to this young brother named Lin Feng who just assisted us.”

“If it weren’t for him, our losses would have been even more devastating.”

Hearing his name mentioned, Lin Feng walked forward from behind the vehicle, slowly spoke:

“I only did it to save Lisa; she has helped us a lot previously in the Wild Rift.”

Seeing Lin Feng reveal his face, Bai Ye’s blue eyes beneath his silver eyelashes slightly brightened.

As a universally acknowledged beauty in the Wasteland, she was like a star in the City of Salvation, pursued by countless talented Evolvers, including some young and handsome ones.

But compared to the man in front of them, they were a bit lacking.

Lin Feng himself had a good appearance, and after achieving Tier Jump Evolution, his aura was further enhanced, with some flaws and scars on his face repaired to perfection.

Now, even among Evolvers who already have no unattractive individuals, he stands out just based on his looks.

Seeing Lin Feng, Bai Ye finally understood why Lisa would be smitten by him.

For a small to medium-sized settlement like Oasis Town, with a total population of only seventy or eighty thousand, Lin Feng’s looks and strength completely belong to the top tier.

Even in a populous city like the Holy City, he’s rarely seen.

Naturally, he’s likely to attract female Evolvers.

Of course, to certain male Evolvers with peculiar tastes or preferences, Lin Feng is also an ideal choice for fondness.

Who knows if he, along his journey, ever sacrificed his looks for resources.

This thought flashed across his mind, Bai Ye immediately spoke out:

“But ultimately, it’s a life-saving grace. As the Leader of the Salvation Army, I certainly need to express my gratitude.”

Saying this, Bai Ye reached into the pocket of his leather jacket and took out two faint red crystal stones.

The pupils of Zheng Yan Ying’s group instantly shrank.

Seeing this, Bai Ye’s mouth subtly curved upward:

“I heard from Lisa that you are here to collect these Desert Wolf Essence Crystals?”

“These two Late Tier One Life Source Stones were collected by us halfway. As a token of gratitude for your rescue, please accept them.”

Saying this, Bai Ye flicked both of his hands, and the two Source Crystals floated through the air in an arc toward Lin Feng.

Lin Feng reached out steadily to catch them, examining one with his fingers, finding it larger than the three Source Crystals they had collected, with a diameter of about three centimeters.

And inside, the Life Source Material remained full and rich even after thousands of years.

“Thank you!”

Lin Feng put away the Source Crystals, calmly replied.

A Life Source Stone like this, in the Late Tier One stage, is worth at least five thousand points, especially when it’s a pathway for Tier Three evolution. Its evolutionary potential far exceeds that of the Rock-Horned Horse Source Material.

Naturally, for such a super gift, Lin Feng was happy to accept it, equivalent to an extra ten thousand points, enough to buy two more large-caliber cannons.

Moreover, with these two Late Stage Life Source Stones, the Squad’s mission was half completed; they only needed to collect five more Tier One and one Tier Two Source Stone Crystals to successfully end the task without venturing further into the ruins.

After the Leader of the Salvation Army, Bai Ye, presented such a substantial “meeting gift”…

The relationship between the two teams instantly relaxed considerably.

In the face of benefits, everything can be negotiated; even between enemies of different positions and camps, they can become friendly.

Zheng Yan Ying didn’t say anything, but she set aside the cold expression on her face, changing her previously tough attitude.

Seeing this, Bai Ye continued:

“Perhaps you still need more Desert Wolf Source Stones, but aside from Feicheng Shelter, other small and medium-sized shelters have already been visited by generations of Hunters, leaving not even a wolf hair.”

“If you want to continue collecting Life Source Stones, you have to return to this large shelter ruin, solve the monster unrest, and then eliminate the large group of mutants lingering on the top three layers.”

Lin Feng furrowed his brows slightly, walked forward slowly, first gesturing for Zheng Yan Ying to leave the negotiations to him, then spoke:

“So, do you have a way to solve this? To deal with that Tier Three Mutant and other Guild Hunters turned Corruptors?”

Bai Ye nodded, maintaining his smile:

“Previously we were only caught off guard by them, coupled with the rebellion of mutant monster tides, dispersing the strength of our squad, so we had to retreat temporarily.”

“Now I’ve thought of an excellent handling method that can quickly resolve the mutants remaining on the top three layers, but in the end, I need some help to deal with the Tier Three Mutant and other Hunter Corruptors.”

“By the way, that Corruptor One-star Hunter is still wearing a set of Exoskeleton Power Armor; although the helmet and visor are damaged, the other parts are intact.”
