Chapter 1421: Chapter 982: They Seem to Be Here for Sightseeing
Ange, of course, wouldn't mind whenever they set off, the silver coin was just a routine matter that would be ignored in the Soul Network. Hence, for such important matters, he still needed to come back and report personally.
However, returning also had its advantages. As soon as he had returned, he encountered such excellent equipment. Silver Coin just happened to need an opportunity to deal with Orgal, and now, the opportunity had arrived. What could be a more suitable opportunity than selling equipment?
Carrying two sets of monkey version double crystal defense cloaks, Silver Coin, after several transfers, arrived at a secret coordinate provided by the other party. Upon teleporting there, Silver Coin discovered it was a vast enclosed space.
The spacious square, the straight boulevards, neatly planned houses and orderly personnel, it all seemed like a military camp.
After stepping out of the Teleportation Array, an air-car was already waiting there. One soldier asked, “Sir Silver Coin?”
“Yes, that's me,” Silver Coin responded.
“Please get on, Lord Orgal has requested your presence.”
Silver Coin got into the car. The curtains of the air-car were drawn. Once the car started moving, Silver Coin began to lift one corner of the curtain to look outside.
The soldier who fetched him frowned but did not stop him.
Seeing that he was not stopped, Silver Coin continued to push the curtains further open.
Beside the straight boulevard, there were various empty spaces where many soldiers were training, and it seemed that the decorations for each group of soldiers were identical.
For example, on one patch up ahead, all soldiers were bare-chested, wielding dual hammers, swinging in unison. After a final shout, the hammers clashed together, and a robust phantom appeared above them.
On another plot, a group of people dressed like Magicians, holding the book in one hand and the magic wand in the other, loudly chanting. At the climax of the chant, they raised their magic wands abruptly, and a phantom emerged from them.
Yet on another space, there was a group of archers stretching their bodies and murmuring words; suddenly drawing their bows, the same kind of phantom appeared.
Next were sword and shield soldiers, spear soldiers, along with many other types of soldiers Silver Coin had never seen before. They were training unanimously, and at the peak of their intensity, varying phantom figures appeared above them.
If it were someone else, they might not recognize what these phantoms represented, but Silver Coin did.
The air-car drove to a larger open space, where a robust armored girl was sparring with a steel construct, making it retreat step by step.
Silver Coin thoughtfully observed the girl with the armor.
“Hello, Sir Silver Coin,” a familiar voice came from the side.
Silver Coin turned his head and saw an ordinary middle-aged Mage. “Lord Orgal?”
“It's me. How do you find this place?” Orgal asked meaningfully.
Rubbing his hands, Silver Coin smiled warmly. Indeed, he was no fool; Orgal understood Silver Coin's intention and also showed his sincerity. Now, he was inquiring about Silver Coin's sincerity.
The two were about to cooperate. Silver Coin proposing a visit at this time, those who did not understand might think he was really coming for a 'visit', but Orgal understood. He knew Silver Coin was here to probe.
Thus, he chose this meeting place, a place where he could fully demonstrate his strength.
“It's very good, extremely good, Lord Orgal. I have brought some equipment that can immediately greatly enhance your soldiers' strength. Please, take a look,” Silver Coin brought out the two cloaks.
“A cloak? Just this? Can it enhance defense? Are you joking with me, Sir Silver Coin?” Orgal spoke displeasedly.
However, his mood quickly took a one hundred and eighty-degree turn as he touched the rough texture of the cloak, exclaiming in surprise, “It specifically rebounds the Power of Chaos? It has such a function? Does it rebound other powers too?”
Silver Coin shook his head: “Only the Power of Chaos.”
“But… our target this time is the Mourning Undead Soldiers, don't you have equipment that rebounds the Power of Mourning?” Orgal asked.
Silver Coin smiled warmly, “It also has the energy to defend against certain strengths of soul attacks, but once the Mourning Undead Soldiers are eliminated, wouldn't you no longer have to face them?”
“Hahaha, that makes sense, I need three thousand of these cloaks,” Orgal stated.
“Alright, the generous price is one hundred thousand Demon Crystals each, totaling three hundred million Demon Crystals,” Silver Coin rubbed his hands, laughing until his eyes were no longer visible.
“Pfft– Do you still want money? That expensive?”
“Twenty percent off, two hundred forty million.”
“That's too expensive, let's try two hundred sets first, if they're good, we'll add more.”
“Are you kidding me? Only wholesale purchases get a discount, two hundred sets can only be sold at the original price, twenty million,” Silver Coin angrily stated.
As a shrewd merchant, he hated this kind of behavior where they push down the price with a large order but end up buying only small quantities, which is not a merchant's behavior, but a rascal's tactics.
Orgal is not a merchant and was somewhat bewildered why Silver Coin got angry, it was just bargaining, if disagreed, just counter-offer, why get angry?
In the end, they couldn't negotiate it down, so he had to buy two hundred sets at the original price, he only needed this many, speaking freely of needing three thousand sets was just to better negotiate, because the melee shield soldiers under his command were only a few hundred, the rest were Wizards.
After receiving the deposit, Silver Coin made several transactions and returned to Bridgehead Fort.
Anthony was also back, everyone gathered to listen to Silver Coin's report, when he mentioned the illusions on those soldiers, Negris frowned and said, “Heroic Spirits? Are they training Heroic Spirits?”
No one was more familiar with Heroic Spirits than Negris; his Bronze Book contained two Heroic Spirits, Red Star and Cannon of Truth Walker.
Red Star was the founder of Stellaris Academy, Negris's fanatical follower from generations ago, Cannon of Truth Walker was the builder of the Starburst Array, the Chief Magician who turned Drosa's design into reality.
However, that was all their past identities, and Heroic Spirits are the manifestations of the collective's imagination towards them.
A famous figure, if the collective's perception of him is brave and fearless, then his Heroic Spirit will definitely be brave and fearless, if cunning and deceitful, then his Heroic Spirit will also definitely be cunning and deceitful.
What's different from Gods is that Gods have self-consciousness, a brave and fearless God would flee when about to die, but a Heroic Spirit wouldn't. They are like Gods without thoughts, only doing what the collective imagines them to do.
“These people are actually training Heroic Spirits? I know why they want to slay Gods now, the Gods have taken their ecological niche,” Anthony suddenly realized.
“Not only that, Divine Power converges, all divine might ultimately returns to the Gods, but Heroic Spirits can make all soldiers become Gods,” Negris excitedly stated.
Heroic Spirits can also be used this way? He had always just considered Red Star and Walker fools.
With an entire Heroic Spirit Legion, no wonder Orgal can slay Gods.
“Good, our partners are strong, it will be much easier for us, according to Bess Huo Man's report, the Mourning Undead Soldiers have already started to gather, they should be departing soon, we–” Anthony was saying this when he suddenly paused, tilting his ear to listen.
After a long while, Anthony spoke with a strange expression, “My lord, there's a fleet of hundreds of Airships approaching in this direction, they seem to be here for sightseeing.”
