Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 2098: Way to fight back (2)

"We are going to open a planet hunting ground."

When Ye Zhongming said this, everyone was completely bewildered, not knowing what this had to do with dealing with the eight heads of Dark Strip City.

"It really is time to open a planet hunting ground. The deadline given by the higher-ups is already near. After all, after we decide, we still need to notify the other cosmic races, and everyone needs some time to prepare."

Lady Star took over the conversation, but she looked at Ye Zhongming curiously and said, "What does this have to do with us dealing with the eight heads?"

Ye Zhongming smiled. "It naturally depends on how we operate it."

He didn't keep them in suspense and continued: "No matter from which angle you look at it, the eight heads will definitely participate in the planet hunting ground."

Everyone thought about it and nodded.

Although the planet hunting ground was dangerous, the profits were equally great. What many races gained from a single hunting trip was enough to cover the entire clan's expenses for hundreds of cosmic days. Even for those large clans, with a bit of luck, they could obtain many, many benefits, allowing their strength to advance further.

Previously, Dark Strip City had also participated, but as a collective effort by the eight heads. After all, although they were medium-sized races, their ranking among all the medium-sized races of the cosmic races was not good. They could throw their weight around in a small city like Dark Strip City, but that wasn't enough when they went out. If they didn't combine their forces, however many people they sent out would be exactly how many died.

This time, because the Star-Eye Clan was opening the planet hunting ground, it was equivalent to being their home turf. Although this home turf had no real use for a small clan, if the eight heads obtained this right, by joining together, they might actually be able to accomplish something.This home-field advantage meant they could choose the hunting area on the planet and be the first to land in the hunting ground.

On a planet with countless hunting areas, there were always a few with an extremely, extremely high cost-performance ratio, where the prey and materials were valuable, but the danger wasn't that great.

After choosing one, as long as one's strength wasn't too far off, one could completely make a killing.

Such an opportunity, for the eight heads who had grown accustomed to exploiting the Star-Eye Clan, would definitely not be missed. Furthermore, in the few previous instances where planet-hunting grounds were opened by entities other than large clans, they mostly appeared as city alliances.

Of course, even this was not frequent. After all, planet-hunting grounds were unexplored territories with high danger coefficients. One misstep could mean extinction for medium-sized races.

If the Star-Eye Clan chose to open a planet hunting ground, the eight heads would definitely come to apply pressure, making the Star-Eye Clan handle this matter under the name of Dark Strip City. Then they could send a combined force to participate. It was certain that they would definitely use the Star-Eye Clan warriors as cannon fodder to pave the way for them, while they followed behind and extracted as much benefit as possible from the hunting area.

They had acted shabbily today, and they knew it. At the same time, they would also know that the Star-Eye Clan would definitely resent them. If they could use the opportunity of the planet hunting ground to weaken the Star-Eye Clan, or even cause them to never recover from this blow, that would definitely be for the best.

Based on these reasons, once the Star-Eye Clan opened the hunting ground, the eight heads would definitely choose to participate.

"Their biggest mistake is not understanding the current Star-Eye Clan well enough. They still think we are the old Star-Eye Clan, and that our ability to win this time was just a desperate, all-or-nothing gamble. This asymmetry of information is their biggest weakness and also the starting point of their slide into the abyss."

A cold smile hung on Ye Zhongming's face. What happened today had truly infuriated him. The King of Cloud Peak, when had he ever suffered such humiliation?

A bunch of petty people who broke their promises, with a mere flap of their lips, they had made the several tens of millions of Moonspan Gold that were within the Star-Eye Clan's grasp disappear! This anger, Ye Zhongming could not swallow, no matter what.

"We open the planet battlefield. They want to participate, so we'll let them participate as they wish. They will definitely make us bring more warriors to serve as cannon fodder for them. That's fine, we'll satisfy them!"

"When the time comes, we'll let these people witness our true allies, and... the things we've learned from our allies!"

The Su Clan and the Star-Eye Clan were now in a strategic relationship. Apart from sending people to set up formations in the underground fortress cluster, the planet hunting ground would be their first all-around cooperation. Their hunting areas would definitely be adjacent. Then, Ye Zhongming would let these eight heads know what despair was.

They were planning to consume the Star-Eye Clan, and the Star-Eye Clan, in turn, would use every opportunity to consume them!

After everyone finished listening, they all thought carefully and raised some questions. Ye Zhongming discussed with them and basically finalized this plan.

"We send out the news. There will probably still be some days until we assemble the troops and depart. During this phase, I will craft various pieces of equipment to increase our strength. So the Bronze Camp side will be handed over to Zhong Hongke. The Assault Camp will also be under Ou Chong's command. If the clan has matters, you can directly give orders to them."

Ye Zhongming had just mastered the technique of crafting Raini Grade equipment and was planning to continue it. Practice makes perfect; he estimated he could still improve the quality a bit.

"Chief Technical Officer Jikesu will still need to help me."

To this request from Ye Zhongming, the entire Star-Eye Clan naturally agreed without exception.

"I'll provide a list of materials. Try to purchase them discreetly. This matter will trouble Chief Officer Yashinan."

Yashinan waved his hand, saying it was nothing.

He was very willing to serve Ye Zhongming, mainly because he was swift and didn't worry about money. Things that Yashinan previously could only see on light screens, he was now buying back one by one. That feeling of achievement was indescribably good.

"Also, the eight heads said to let us replace the Huaitang Clan in the city guard, right? I think that's fine. The more people, the better."

Everyone was stunned for a moment. What was this for again?

"Joining the city guard comes with a certain service period. If too many people join, the impact on us would be too great."

The two Star-Eye Clan leaders frowned, not quite agreeing with this approach.

"It's okay. At most, we just need to hold on until we leave for the planet hunting ground."

"Why?" White Robe couldn't understand.

Ye Zhongming smiled. "Because the city guard is responsible for city safety. With them there, we can, at a needed moment, in a needed area, do some things without being discovered."

"I want to exploit a time difference! Right before we leave here for the planet hunting ground!"

Facing everyone's confused eyes, the coldness around Ye Zhongming grew stronger.

"On my home planet, there's a very interesting saying: a gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late; a petty person takes revenge, from morning to night. Although I'm not exactly a petty person, when it comes to revenge, I still prefer to do it as early as possible. So..."

"I want to, on the day before the hunt, exterminate the Huaitang clan."
