Chapter 109 Extraordinary
The initial negotiations between the seven worms, no, the seven latent dragons, went smoothly, and the attitudes expressed by both parties were friendly.
Then, as a novice, Zhang Yang naturally seized the opportunity to ask a question that had been bothering him for a long time.
"What is the extraordinary?"
Upon hearing this question, Yuan Gang, Liu Kai and the others all looked at each other in tacit understanding. Finally, Liu Yu spoke up. "This question requires payment. It's not that we want to make it difficult for you, but it's tradition. I asked the same question to a senior like you. The senior only said one sentence, information and intelligence are the most valuable. Why do you want me to answer you for free? I'm not your father."
"This sentence left a deep impression on me. I think several of you here have had this experience. So, Zhang Yang, in order to make up for the psychological damage I suffered back then, I must tell you this sentence in its entirety!"
"Information and intelligence are the most valuable. Why should you ask us to give you free answers? We are not your fathers!"
"Of course, you can also choose to return to reality and have your own government experts answer your questions for free."
Zhang Yang listened very carefully, without any displeasure. He had long been aware of the tradition that information must be charged, but it was correct. The information that others had was obtained at a huge cost. Why should I speak out everything just because of your words? However, he raised another question.
"Will you divide the spoils unevenly?"
"No, I spoke first this time. Even if they know the answer, they won't compete with me for the reward. Let's start. One hundred thousand kilograms of food is one question." Liu Yu sat upright.
"Okay." Zhang Yang was also unambiguous.
"The so-called extraordinary means transcending the ordinary and breaking through the scope of our life genes. You don't need to understand the details. You just need to know that as long as any of your four major attributes of strength, agility, defense, and soul strength breaks through to A-, then you have entered the extraordinary stage."
"In addition, if our soldiers can become four-star heroes, it means they have entered the extraordinary stage. The answer is complete. One hundred thousand jin, Liu Kai, remember to intercept it for me later."
Liu Yu shouted triumphantly, and Liu Kai immediately found someone to deal with it.
"Any questions?"
"Yes, why can using demon souls enhance physical attributes?" Zhang Yang continued to ask calmly.
"I don't know the answer to this question. No one knows the answer, so I'll only charge you half the price. But I can give you some of my experience in advancing to the extraordinary level."
"First of all, don't just fuse any demon soul into yourself. It's best to choose a demon soul with a very good price-performance ratio, especially a lord-level demon soul. Otherwise, if you just find any random demon soul to fuse, it will be difficult to improve your attributes when they reach around B-. As for the reason, I don't know, and no one knows. The expert group in the government is studying it, but I don't think it will be of any use."
"Liu Kai, go and intercept another 50,000 kilograms of food for me. Is there any problem?"
Liu Yu became a little excited. He guessed that he had been abused like this in the past, so his psychology was a little distorted.
"Yes, one last question. Can the four attributes, strength, agility, defense, and soul strength, all be improved to extraordinary levels?"
"This question, damn, I don't know the answer either, and no one knows the answer, so I'll charge half the price and give you my guess."
"So far, there are almost millions of people on Earth who have been bound by the village building order, and more than half of them have died. It is precisely because of the large number of abnormal deaths and disappearances that the government has taken notice and started to take the lead and set up a national team. However, no one, including those powerful national teams, has achieved what you said. At most, they have continuously advanced a single attribute."
"For example, although I had a C-level soul at the beginning, I prefer to be unrestrained and free. Well, I am a gymnast in real life. Because of this, when I choose to advance, I always choose agility. So now my agility is A-, soul is B-, strength is D+, and defense is D+."
"This is also a very strange thing. As long as one of your attributes breaks through A-, the other three attributes will fall into some weird stagnation. So I guess the best way is to raise all the attributes evenly before breaking through to the extraordinary level. This is the most cost-effective way."
"Well, Zhang Yang, can I ask you a question?"
Liu Yu suddenly changed the subject.
"Yes, but there will be a fee, and it depends on the questions you ask." Zhang Yang learned and applied as he went along.
"Okay, I want to know your specific attributes, talents, and skills. Name your price."
"One million kilograms of grain." Zhang Yang blurted out without even thinking.
Liu Yu was stunned, then smiled bitterly, "Brother, you are too smart. Don't do this. Isn't this disrupting the market?"
Zhang Yang was unmoved, he had guessed it long ago, because as a newcomer, he also killed a devil-horned lizard lord. It would be strange if Liu Yu and others were not curious.
Even the fact that they had started with the charging issue was just to pave the way for this moment.
After all, in a sense, the seven of them are also a kind of healthy competitors.
However, if this attribute can sell 1 million kilograms of grain, then of course he will sell it, and he just regrets that he can't sell it a few more times.
"Hey, what do you think? You're all listening here. 150,000 kilograms of food per person, and the excess will be considered a tip." Liu Yu shouted, and after a few people joked, they all recognized the price.
"Okay, my attributes are strength C-, defense D, agility D, and soul A-."
“Talent is a sharp soul, a wild soul, a tough soul.”
"The spells I mastered are Constant Confinement, Flame Tongue, Fire Net, and Variant Fireball."
——
After Zhang Yang reported this attribute, Liu Kai, Liu Yu, and Cao Heng all looked at each other, a little confused.
"Brother, are you sure what you said is true?" Liu Yu asked worriedly.
"I have no reason to lie."
"Ha, that's right, but your attributes are a bit low. How did you manage to deal with that devil-horned lizard lord?"
"So this is another question? Fees, five million kilograms of grain." Zhang Yang was very calm.
So Liu Yu retreated immediately, because Zhang Yang was too evil.
"Cao Heng, aren't you interested? After all, your soul strength is A, and you can also control that mutant fireball. Maybe Zhang Yang's battle experience can be of some benefit to you. By the way, don't think of sharing the burden with us, we are not wizards." Yuan Gang suddenly said at this time.
Cao Heng hesitated for a moment, then asked Zhang Yang: "Are you really willing to tell me the secret of how you defeated the devil-horned lizard?"
"Of course, but it requires 5 million kilograms of grain." Zhang Yang was very serious.
"Hey, brother Zhang Yang, we are all friendly forces, that's enough." Liu Kai quickly said.
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "A senior once said something to me a few minutes ago that will be engraved in my mind forever. Now I want to pass this sentence on to everyone present here."
"Ahem, information and intelligence are the most valuable. Why should you ask me to answer you for free? I'm not your father!"
"puff!"
Duncan, Liao Zhongyuan couldn't hold back his laughter any longer.
Liu Yu had a face full of resentment.
As for Cao Heng, Liu Kai and Yuan Gang were too embarrassed to say anything.
"Forget it, it's five million kilograms, and the landlord doesn't have any surplus food." After a long time, Cao Heng smiled bitterly. He was open-minded, or more confident, after all, his soul strength was A-level.
Of course, it is also possible that he thought Zhang Yang was deliberately making things difficult for him and did not want to reveal it.
But to be honest, Zhang Yang really intended to tell others about the mana structure in the fourth closed-circuit circle, and he really believed that this modified mana structure could be worth 5 million kilograms of grain.
"Well, pack up. We will return to our respective territories before this evening. We will see each other when the game starts. Also, I repeat, even if we will have competition in the future, I hope it will be healthy competition. Don't forget that we have a common enemy."
At that moment, everyone dispersed and Zhang Yang hurried back to urge everyone not to cheat.
However, Cao Heng and Yuan Gang did what they said. With Cao Heng's status, he just went to the Tianliang Great Wall camp and 800,000 kilograms of food were delivered.
Therefore, Zhang Yang had to accumulate enough reputation in the Wei Dynasty. Fortunately, he had killed a lot of demon soldiers before, so he should be able to transport back one million kilograms. The rest could only be arranged in the Bald Ridge Fortress.
By the evening, the old man had rushed back. He had known that Liu Kai and others would leave before the evening, so he ran for his life and finally finalized the matter before that.
At this time, the old, weak, women and children were still at the back. The first to arrive were 3,000 elite disabled veterans and 2,000 captain-level disabled veterans. They had to enter the Bald Ridge Fortress immediately and take over the defense on the mountain and at the foot of the mountain to prevent the demon soldiers from taking advantage of the situation and attacking overnight.
Zhang Yang doesn't have to worry about this. The old man has fought in battles all his life. He is one of the ninth of the ten most famous generals of the Wei Dynasty in the past thirty years. That's no joke.
Moreover, the sons and sons-in-law he trained are not bad either, and there are no omissions in any aspect.
The biggest weakness is food, which has now been made up by Zhang Yang.
A full 800,000 kilograms! Nothing could be more morale-boosting than this.
So Zhang Yang took advantage of the last 7 hours and used the soul force field to purify 1 unit of mana and strengthened the weapons of hundreds of soldiers.
Anyway, that's it.
This extraordinary trial ended at the moment of midnight.
The plot of this world has been completely suspended, waiting to be unsealed in the future.
Perhaps for the old men and others in this world, time has never stopped and Zhang Yang has never left, but for Zhang Yang, this separation may be 300 years.
"I won't let you down. I will still stick to what I insist on. Goodbye!"
A white light swept by, and Zhang Yang and Duan Kuan, along with the 1 million kilograms of grain, disappeared in an instant.
