“Ye Chen!” Standing in the main hall of the lord’s mansion, Jian Mengyi was unusually nervous.
The person she had liked throughout her student days was now actually standing in front of her, making her feel so unreal.
"Huh? What's wrong? Please sit wherever you like, don't be shy!" Ye Chen was taken aback, thinking the other person was just being polite, so he immediately said.
"Oh! Okay! Okay!" Jian Mengyi snapped out of her daze and hurriedly sat down next to her best friend, her cheeks flushed slightly, which made Si Meng next to her chuckle.
"You've come at the right time. What's going on here? Why are so many powerful lords gathered outside?" After everyone was seated, Ye Chen looked at the two women and asked curiously.
“As you can see, the wasteland planet has attracted a large number of lords. In order to maximize their profits, powerful lords have gathered together. All those who can enter here are top-tier lords!” Si Meng replied, which also explained why the two of them were met with difficulties by Chris as soon as they entered.
Without sufficient strength, you can't stay here.
"But why is everyone staying outside and not going inside?" the fat man asked curiously.
"Let me speak!" Jian Mengyi said, having gradually regained her composure.
"This is a gathering place for geniuses. Some are far away, while others are close. So we agreed to wait for our respective reinforcements to arrive within three days."
"Beyond the wasteland planets lie endless dark creatures, which cannot be cleared away by one or two new lords. After all, our number of followers is not large, so we can only gather everyone's strength and then slowly clear them away."
"Furthermore, even if we manage to open up the outer passages and enter the wasteland planet, none of us know how many powerful dark creatures are inside. Judging from the current situation, there must be a large number of Tier 4 races, which is not something any one of us can handle alone."
Jian Mengyi slowly explained, and Ye Chen and the other gradually understood. To put it bluntly, it was about making up for a lack of strength with numbers. As for who was just there to make up the numbers and who was qualified to take the fruits of victory, that would depend on everyone's own abilities.
"How long until we launch a full-scale attack?" Ye Chen asked.
"Tomorrow morning, all the lords will join forces to open up the road to the wasteland planet!" Simeng said. Although her clan was only elves, she was the most well-informed.
"Okay, I understand! This battle should last quite a while, right?" Ye Chen nodded and asked again.
"Hmm, it's hard to say, we'll see, but it shouldn't be too short!" Jian Mengyi thought for a moment before replying.
"What? Is there a problem? Do you want the match to last longer?" Si Meng saw through their thoughts at a glance and teased them.
"There's nothing I can do. I ran out of magic crystals on the way here, so I can only hope to collect as many as possible before going in!" Ye Chen shrugged and said nonchalantly.
"You're really poor. By the way, you said you wanted to make a deal with me? What kind of deal is it this time?" Si Meng said jokingly, then looked at Ye Chen and asked.
Ye Chen didn't reply, but looked at the fat man next to him, who immediately understood.
"Here's the thing, my goblins have developed a spatial teleportation array that can freely transport items through this array. So, we're thinking of cooperating with the All Things Pavilion to see if we can open up the entire trading network of the trial space," the fat man said slyly. However, upon hearing his words, both Si Meng and Jian Mengyi were shocked.
"Your goblins have developed a spatial teleportation array?" Si Meng exclaimed in surprise, no longer as calm as before.
It should be noted that although the Celestial Spirits of their Myriad Things Tower also possess spatial teleportation capabilities, they can only use them internally and cannot promote them to the outside world.
The fact that the goblin race, which was considered useless, had actually developed a space teleportation array that did not require spellcasting was truly astonishing.
"Hehe! Lucky me, I just got it a couple of days ago!" the fat man said, taking out two palm-sized discs, handing one to Ye Chen and keeping the other in his own hand.
He then picked up the water glass on the table and put it in. Energy surged, and array patterns appeared on it. The water glass suddenly disappeared from his disc and then reappeared in the disc in Ye Chen's hand.
"This teleportation array is controlled by a main array and can connect all the sub-arrays."
"In other words, lords who want to trade with the World Pavilion only need to purchase one of these teleportation array disks to easily conduct transactions with the World Pavilion anytime, anywhere!"
The fat man said with a smug look on his face that he had only just figured out this thing a couple of days ago, and that he had wasted a lot of magic crystals on it. Otherwise, the two of them wouldn't still be so poor after all this time.
"This? That's amazing!" Si Meng covered her mouth, her face filled with shock.
This thing is much more convenient and practical than the Protoss's teleportation array. After all, the Protoss's array needs to be inscribed on the territory of the opposing lord, and it also needs to be maintained regularly.
But this disc can be used anytime, anywhere, even when the lord is not in the territory.
"Hehe? How about it? Interested in this collaboration?" the fat man said with a smug smile. This was something his group of goblins, whom he called useless, had come up with.
"How far can it teleport? Is it safe?" Si Meng asked in a deep voice, a question that all teleportation arrays must address.
"Don't worry, teleportation is not a problem within the same world. As for crossing worlds, we can only try again after we leave the trial space!" Ye Chen said. Although they hadn't actually tested it, they chose to believe the goblin when he told them so confidently.
"So how do you plan to cooperate?" Si Meng asked with a serious expression, taking a deep breath, not even paying attention to her girlfriends next to her.
"That depends on how sincere Lord Simeng is. I think that with this, we can create a new trading platform, a platform that is independent of the Wanwu Tower. What do you think?" Ye Chen said calmly, but Simeng's pupils shrank slightly upon hearing this.
"What are you planning to do?" Si Meng gasped. They were asking her to betray them!
“Let’s set up a new trading platform. Me, Fatty, Wanwulou, and even Lord Simeng, Mengyi… we will each hold shares. Of course, we will control the majority of the shares. After all, with this kind of technology, Wanwulou is not a threat. Do you agree?”
