Chapter 124 - Great Bargain
Chapter 124: Great Bargain
At this moment, the crowd pointed at Wang Hao and whispered, recognizing who he was.
“Isn’t he the ball-breaker who sells expensive antidotes?”
“That’s where I saw him! He’s a total jackass!”
“If I had recognized him sooner, I wouldn’t have defended him in front of the lieutenant general!”
“You were blind! He was obviously bullying the lieutenant general, not the other way around!”
“I suddenly feel that the people who paid ten billion for the antidote truly got great bargains.”
“They’d probably laugh so hard at night that they couldn’t sleep.”
“Who is this guy? Why is Deputy President Bing Qiao so tolerant of him?”
“He is Wang Hao. He is the best genius of the Guild of Pharmaceutics. He’s only seventeen, but he is already a level-three Medical Grandmaster. He has also developed a cure for the zombie virus when the Guild of Pharmaceutics failed to. Do you think Deputy President Bing Qiao would blame him for something so trivial?”
“No wonder he dares to blackmail the lieutenant general. He’s from a powerful background!”
“You’re all outdated. Wang Hao is not just the best genius of the Guild of Pharmacists, but also the best genius of Empyrean North University.”
“Empyrean North University? Why is he related to Empyrean North University?”
“Wang Hao is an unprecedented genius in martial arts. He’s even more terrifying than Commander Wang Tianyi. He has grasped a couple Natural techniques when he’s only seventeen.”
“Eesh… Bro, you must be kidding.”
“I’m certainly not. Although his level is low for now, Wang Hao is much stronger than many senior experts.”
“…”
At this moment, the infected people who paid ten billion for the antidote were dumbfounded when they learned Jin Wei’s price.
In the meantime, they were secretly delighted, as if they had gotten a great bargain.
They were even of a mind to declare proudly that they only paid ten billion for the cure for the zombie virus.
Xue Qianqin, who was in the crowd, watched Wang Hao’s blackmail show from beginning to end. She had to admit that Wang Hao was smart and creative and knew how to get the greatest profit despite his shamelessness.
It doesn’t feel good to be his target. Xue Qianqin felt a headache, as she had learned the usage of the Dark Spirit’s blood.
Wang Hao, who was shameless and clever, already knew her. If she appeared again, Wang Hao would certainly capture her and pump out her blood once more.
Xue Qianqin quivered whenever she recalled how her blood was extracted. She did not want to experience it again.
Wang Hao was not gentle at all and would not consider how long it would take for her to recover from the loss of blood.
“Huh…” Xi Rongxuan frowned and murmured, “It will take ten days for me to absorb the zombie virus, but that guy named Xi Rongxuan will be gone in ten days. However, if I’m to use Wang Hao’s antidote…”
Xue Qianqin couldn’t finish the thought. Wang Hao was a bitch who would not stop until his target was bankrupt. Jin Wei had set a good example for her. She certainly did not intend to give herself away.
If I can’t buy it, I’d better steal it. Xue Qianqin smiled. With the features of Dark Spirit and an advanced Stealth Cloak, Wang Hao couldn’t see her even if she were standing right before him.
Thinking about that, Xue Qianqin quickly walked to a corner and disappeared.
…
In a forest on Tianming, Xi Rongxuan breathed heavily against a tree.
Soldiers had been onto him since he got the space gem. If he hadn’t hidden himself in a forest in time, he would’ve been caught.
“Da Niu and Huang Mao must’ve confessed everything…” Xi Rongxuan was rather regretful. He should’ve killed them back in the manor, but he was fascinated by the space gem and fled too soon.
It’s not the time to regret. I have to get out of Tianming as soon as possible, or I won’t be able to when the searching spaceships of the Military Department are deployed. Xi Rongxuan forced himself to calm down and consider how to leave safely with the space gem.
Right then, he heard cheerful laughter not far away.
“Hurry up! We’ll reach the next city after we pass through this forest.”
“Oh, we’ll make a fortune again!”
“I truly envy you for the level-three revolver you found last time.”
“You should’ve been faster!”
“Haha. Stop fighting. There’s equipment all over Tianming. Everybody will find something as long as you’re patient enough.”
“That’s right. Those zombies are too weak. They’re no match for us when we work together.”
“Don’t be careless. Those were civilians. We’ll be screwed if we run into zombies who used to be cultivators.”
“That’s fine. As long as we work together, even the strongest zombie will be useless.”
“Keep it up…”
Hearing them, Xi Rongxuan put on a cruel smile. He jumped and rushed to the source of the voices.
When he saw the students in the uniform of Martial South University, he drew his pistol and shot them without any hesitation.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
As gunshots burst out, several students screamed and collapsed in a spray of blood.
“Enemy!” The other students hurried to take shelter.
“It’s too late!” Xi Rongxuan smiled cruelly and tossed out two grenades.
BOOM!
Immediately, fire soared to the sky, and thunderous explosions echoed in the forest.
When everything died down, the students of Martial South University were all bleeding on the ground, unable to move anymore.
“College students are all garbage. You do not have any battle experience even if your level is high.” Xi Rongxuan snorted and aimed his gun at the head of a dying student, before he pulled the trigger.
“You…”
The other students shouted in fear when their partner was killed, but they were too heavily wounded to run away.
“You are… Lin Tingbai!”
Xi Rongxuan noticed a student whose skin was fair. He had seen this boy, Lin Tingbai from the No. 11 High School, when he searched for new members for DY back on Earth.
Lin Tingbai was hit with Passion by Wang Hao in an arena match and was unfortunately auctioned to Gao Damei.
Later, Gao Xiong, Gao Damei’s father, pulled some strings and sent Lin Tingbai and Gao Damei to a branch of Martial South University…
