Chen Guofu’s Office
"Master!"
"Did they leave?"
Chen Guofu asked calmly.
Butler: "Yes, Wang Hao followed Xu Xiang to the Settlent Camp, but he left two of his subordinates behind."
"That’s for the best."
Chen Guofu’s expression beca a bit more relaxed.
"Master, what about the young lady..."
"What she thinks doesn’t matter. This marriage involves the future of the Chen Family, and it must be handled with care."
Chen Guofu said sternly, his face was stern:
"Our Chen Family has endured until now, even during the Dark Age, we didn’t fall, and we absolutely can’t fall in the future. Not only can we not fall, but we must also take this opportunity to rise."
"Wang Hao’s strength is not to be underestimated! If he gets angry..."
The butler hesitated to continue.
Seeing Chen Guofu’s stance, his heart slightly inclined towards Emperor Wushuang.
There’s no choice; Emperor Wushuang’s capabilities and influence are evident, especially now that it’s the apocalypse, making transportation inconvenient.
If it was before the apocalypse, even a fool would know what to choose.
But Wang Hao’s capabilities are evident, with reports from returnees that they dug a tunnel directly to the secret base.
This caught the other side off guard.
If they could dig tunnels to attack secret bases, they could also tunnel to attack their sanctuary.
With Wang Hao’s formidable combat power, even without calling for reinforcents, he could still devastate the sanctuary.
Moreover, Xu Xiang is not one to be underestimated either.
Without Wang Hao’s deterrence, if they launched an attack, they could easily level this place.
"So for now, we mustn’t offend anyone. We will maneuver between the three factions, let them compete, let them constrain each other.
We’ll reap enormous benefits from this, Lingxue is still young, and it’s the apocalypse now; there’s no rush for marriage."
Chen Guofu said calmly.
The butler’s eyes couldn’t help but brighten slightly.
As expected of a seasoned veteran of the business world!
He actually intends to play all sides.
Let the three factions check and balance each other, fight among themselves.
They beco the true beneficiaries, seizing the largest gains.
But this requires maintaining a balance, ensuring none of the three factions are offended, while also giving each a sliver of hope.
And it can’t be dragged out for too long.
Otherwise, if the balance is broken, everything would fall apart.
...
In the RV, Wang Hao and Xu Xiang sat opposite each other, drinking tea.
"Have the major Settlent Camps been inford about the Corpse Poison Serum?"
Wang Hao suddenly rembered the issue of the Corpse Poison Serum.
Even though it’s still in the final experintal improvent phase, he thought there was no need to wait.
Sharing it, letting everyone research together, is the best solution.
After all, they weren’t selling these things.
"The major Settlent Camps have been inford; Lingxue is currently in urgent talks!"
Xu Xiang said while sipping tea.
"The Corpse Poison Serum concerns countless lives; the sooner it’s made public, the fewer people will die.
There’s no need to pursue maximizing profits."
Wang Hao frowned.
Previously, he even thought about making it public directly.
But considering that a lot has been sacrificed this ti.
There is so justification to strive for so benefits.
But dragging it out too long would go against the original intention.
So money can be earned, so money shouldn’t be.
"The issues here are quite complex. On our end, it’s manageable, but primarily on the Imperial Capital Settlent Camp’s side; we also need to liaise and negotiate with overseas countries’ Settlent Camps."
Xu Xiang spread his hands, expressing so helplessness:
"It’s not that we don’t want to make it public, but that various factions are asking us not to, for fear that the technology will quickly leak once it’s public."
"This...."
Wang Hao looked puzzled: "What do they want from abroad?"
The overseas camps are too far from here. Forget about delivering grains or weapons; even delivering crystal stones wouldn’t be easy.
What’s more, the ti it takes for a round trip is too long.
"Technology, not just the technology surrounding crystal stones, but also various weapons technology from before."
Xu Xiang’s expression beca serious:
"Although Hua Country has risen, the ti has been very short, and in terms of various technologies, we’re far behind the developed countries.
There’s also a huge gap in experts and various scientific research equipnt. The developnt around crystal stones overseas is far superior to ours.
Moreover, besides the crystal-related developnt, abroad they have conventional weapons strong enough to inflict damage on level three monsters."
"Oh~~, then let’s hurry up."
Wang Hao nodded.
Many novels and even real-world dia and various netizens boast excessively.
It gives off a sense of arrogance.
The reality is that Hua Country is just a developing country, relying on the influx of low-end manufacturing from developed countries, capitalizing on the demographic dividend for growth.
Nicked as the world’s factory, many even feel proud, taking pride in it.
Bragging everywhere about GDP numbers.
Comparing themselves to this, comparing themselves to that.
Even taking pride in high house prices, thinking the higher the prices, the more developed the place is.
But all the high-end technology is in the hands of developed countries.
Various top-tier talents have also flowed out in large numbers.
Right now is a great opportunity to use the Corpse Poison Serum to exchange for a lot of useful technologies.
This can greatly enhance our capabilities.
Better deal with the monsters.
"Don’t worry; this matter has already beco the top priority for various countries, and it will be resolved within three days."
Xu Xiang leaned back on the sofa, stretching widely:
"At that ti, we’ll get a share of those technologies, and various Settlent Camps will owe us a large favor."
Wang Hao nodded privately.
This is very beneficial for him too.
Maintaining a good relationship with various factions is very necessary.
Even a hero needs the help of friends.
No matter how strong you are, there’ll be tis you need help.
This ti, by making the Corpse Poison Serum public and not choosing to monopolize the technology, produce it himself, and sell it to each Settlent Camp,
All of humanity owes him a massive favor.
When he faces difficulties, this favor can be cashed in.
"By the way, Brother Hao, don’t send the information back ho for now, to prevent any leaks."
Xu Xiang hesitated, then reminded him.
Regarding the Corpse Poison Serum information, both Wang Hao and he have complete backups.
The secret base was taken down with the combined efforts of three factions, with Wang Hao and him contributing even more.
It’s not possible for the Chen Family alone to hold the materials.
He’s worried Wang Hao might hastily send the information back to the settlent, or even to the Su Jing First Settlent Camp side.
If it leaks, the loss would be significant.
"Don’t worry! I’m not that reckless?"
Wang Hao shook his head a bit speechlessly.
"Hehe, I was just saying."
Xu Xiang chuckled awkwardly, scratching his head in embarrassnt.
"Caw~~"
An energetic cry of a phoenix rang across the sky.
Both Wang Hao and Xu Xiang turned pale.
The procession halted imdiately.
Everyone disembarked, looking up at the sky.
In the sky, a large bird spread its wings, flying towards the distance.
Its body was entirely crimson, massive in size, enveloped in flas.
Behind it, nurous gargoyles were giving chase.
The bodies of so gargoyles in the lead even grew as large as dragons.
"Is that a Superpower User?"
Xu Xiang said, stunned.
"Probably not!"
Wang Hao’s eyes were like a hawk’s, speaking seriously:
"Its size is too massive; a Superpower User can’t transform that much, and besides, if it were a Superpower User, faced with this situation, they would revert to human form to evade.
Rather than growing larger to fly up, confronting the entire gargoyle army."
There was another thing Wang Hao didn’t say.
That was the spiritual power he sensed emanating from the crimson bird.
This is sothing a Superpower User doesn’t possess.
"What on earth is that? Those undead abominations were bad enough, why is there sothing like this now?"
Xu Xiang expressed his exasperation.
"Spiritual Qi revival, all beings awaken, maybe it’s so kind of demon beast or sothing."
Wang Hao’s eyes glead with excitent, not fear.
He had long speculated about the existence of spiritual beasts or demon beasts; even Cotton Candy seed to belong to this category.
These creatures can be tad.
Having one as a mount would be aweso, right?
And they’re not undead aberrations; their at could probably be eaten.
Such a large bird could be food for a long while.
