Faced with the conditions proposed by Gu Lingxiao, Feiyan couldn't help but fall into a fierce internal struggle.
On the one hand, she desperately needed to obtain Zi Lei; on the other hand, the additional one million yuan in interest was not a small amount.
However, when she met Gu Lingxiao's threatening gaze, a chill ran through her.
After much difficult deliberation, Fei Yan finally gritted her teeth, nodded reluctantly in agreement, and quickly signed her name on the electronic contract.
For Hei Dashuai, however, the situation is slightly different.
Since both items he needed were quite valuable, he urgently needed to add a substantial amount of interest.
At first, Gu Lingxiao made an outrageous demand, asking for a full ten million. Upon hearing this number, Hei Dashuai was almost startled and jumped up; he even considered abandoning the deal altogether.
Fortunately, at the crucial moment, Gu Lingxiao noticed Hei Dashuai's reaction and took the initiative to lower the price by one million, which barely allowed the deal to be completed.
Gu Lingxiao stored the two electronic contracts in the nano backpack's database, which can effectively protect the stored items from any external factors. Even if the nano backpack is destroyed, the items can still be found in the database.
What's even more noteworthy is that both electronic contracts come with high-definition video recordings of the signing, meaning that it would be virtually impossible for anyone to renege on their agreement.
At this moment, Gu Lingxiao noticed that Hei Dashuai and Fei Yan seemed to be a little unhappy.
His eyes lit up and an idea immediately came to him—why not give them a little treat?
So, he smiled and said to the two of them, "Gentlemen, why don't you consider buying some original super-power crystals from me on credit?"
Don't worry, the interest rate is very low; you only need to pay 10,000 in interest for every million you borrow.
After some patient persuasion, Fei Yan and Hei Dashuai were finally moved, and they each bought a full one million units of original super energy crystals on credit from Gu Lingxiao.
Seeing his plan succeed, Gu Lingxiao's smile grew even brighter, and he continued enthusiastically, "If you feel it's not enough, you can always come back to me for more credit."
In this way, through this transaction, Gu Lingxiao not only successfully earned interest income, but also freed up a lot of valuable space so that he could store more rare resources.
Then, the two powerful extraordinary beings, Black General and Flying Swallow, began to bend down and frantically harvest all the grass nearby.
For cows and horses, grazing is a perfectly normal thing.
Looking at the bizarre yet plausible scene before him, Gu Lingxiao couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly, muttering to himself, "Very plausible."
Time flies, and more than ten days have passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, the ox and the horse worked tirelessly to search for and collect fodder, and finally accumulated a considerable amount of resources.
Now, they have collected enough grass for the next fusion breakthrough, but at this critical juncture, a quiet and stable environment is essential, and they must not be disturbed or disturbed by any external factors.
At this moment, General Hei, with a sincere expression, said to Gu Lingxiao beside him, "Brother Wei Lu, could you please help us keep watch over our surroundings? In case any uninvited guests suddenly attack and affect our fusion breakthrough process."
Upon hearing this, Gu Lingxiao nodded slightly in agreement and replied, "If nothing unexpected happens, the fee will be 100,000; but if there are any unforeseen circumstances, the fee will be increased accordingly depending on the strength of the attackers."
After exchanging a glance, Hei Dashuai and Feiyan both nodded in agreement.
After all, such a request is reasonable, since hiring someone to guard you always comes at a price.
Once everything was ready, the ox and the horse found an extremely secluded place and began to devote themselves wholeheartedly to the fusion and breakthrough process.
Meanwhile, Gu Lingxiao kept his promise and dutifully guarded the vicinity, remaining highly vigilant at all times without any sign of slackening—after all, if you take someone's money, you have to do their bidding!
And so, time flew by like a white horse galloping past a crack in the wall, and in the blink of an eye, two months had quietly slipped away.
However, to Gu Lingxiao's surprise, this fusion breakthrough took so long! It made him complain: If I had known it would take so long, I should have asked for more original super energy crystals in the first place!
Fortunately, heaven rewards those who persevere. Today, Fei Yan was the first to complete the fusion breakthrough, and shortly afterward, Hei Da Shuai also successfully achieved his goal.
At this point, both of them had successfully entered the third stage. Only now did Gu Lingxiao begin to feel a faint, almost imperceptible pressure emanating from them.
If they had faced Gu Lingxiao head-on in the past, they would have been completely crushed without a doubt.
While we can't completely crush them now, it's not entirely hopeless to put them to death.
Everything proceeded smoothly as planned, without any unexpected issues arising.
Therefore, in accordance with the terms agreed upon in advance, both parties only received 100,000 original super energy crystals as payment.
Furthermore, the agreed-upon reward will only be paid after everyone successfully escapes this mysterious spatial rift.
"Thank you!" Black General and Fei Yan expressed their sincere gratitude to Gu Lingxiao together.
When the two thanked him, Gu Lingxiao simply waved his hand casually, seemingly not paying much attention to what they had said.
At this moment, he was completely absorbed in his meticulous perception of his surroundings.
Gradually, he noticed that the temperature around him was rising. At first, it was only slightly warm, but as time went on, the heat became more and more intense.
Eventually, even he himself felt an urge to drink large gulps of water to quench his thirst.
This feeling was exactly the same as when my body needed to ingest food to function properly.
With a solemn expression, Gu Lingxiao told Hei Dashuai and Feiyan about the subtle changes he had noticed.
After listening to Gu Lingxiao's story, Hei Dashuai and Feiyan exchanged a glance and nodded, indicating that they had similar feelings.
However, despite having a vague feeling that something was wrong, neither the ox nor the horse paid much attention to it.
After all, in this world full of unknowns and challenges, it seems inevitable that some strange feelings will occasionally arise.
