Chapter 3335: ExpansionEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Caleb scrutinized Adam from top to bottom, feeling a bit insane.
Was this kid reckless?
Adam got straight to the point, spreading a goatskin map scroll on Caleb’s desk and pointing to several areas: "We want to exchange these 45 domains for the 45 domains under your control."
"No way," Caleb said without even glancing at the map, immediately refusing. "Why should I help you? Or will you pay me an extra ten million points?"
"Alright, we are willing to pay an additional ten million points as compensation."
"Ah?"
Caleb was completely stunned by hearing Adam agree so readily.
In fact, the domains Adam offered had lower Netherworld creature density than the areas Caleb managed. He would profit from the exchange, and swapping the domains was simple—just a registration. He would gain greatly.
Proposing thirty million points was only meant to annoy Adam.
He hadn’t expected Adam to agree so lightly.
D*mn it!
What was going on? Could there be treasures in those crappy areas?
Impossible!
Such worthless places couldn’t contain anything!
Caleb thought for a moment, then nodded to his apprentice beside him, "No rush, Adam. This is Brin. He will accompany you to check the domains."
"Alright."
Caleb watched the two leave his office, picked up the phone on his desk, and called a branch church official he had a good relationship with, roughly explaining what had just happened.
"Hahaha..."
Laughter came from the other side, "You mean Adam? He came to me as well."
"Hmm!? What do you mean? He wanted to exchange with you, too? And he paid you ten million points as well?"
"No, not ten million. Thirty million!"
D*mn! I sold at a loss!
No wonder Adam agreed so quickly.
Caleb immediately felt regret.
His friend added another jab, "But I didn’t sell."
Caleb was shocked and asked, "Ah? You didn’t sell at all?"
"Although I don’t know what they’re planning, I checked. Recently, Adam has exchanged large portions of domains with several churches," the oracle explained. "There’s definitely something we don’t know."
"Indeed."
"The day before yesterday, he offered thirty million; today, he offered fifty million. Guess what it will be in two days..."
"You’re such a bloodsucker!"
Caleb cursed angrily, hung up the phone, and looked at Adam, who had just re-entered the room.
"I thought about it just now, and I feel that ten million isn’t a reasonable price."
Adam frowned.
"We agreed."
"Agreed? When did we agree? I don’t remember. Young man, don’t speak recklessly."
Caleb chuckled, tapping his fingers on the desk and putting on a shameless expression. "If you are this impudent, I’m afraid our cooperation can’t continue."
"What do you consider a reasonable price?"
"I need some time to think this over. Let’s leave it for today. I’m tired. I hope you come with sincerity tomorrow."
Adam stared at Caleb for a moment and nodded, "Alright, I’ll visit again."
...
Netherworld.
Tens of thousands of Pillars of Black Fog densely filled the area like a forest.
Compared to a week ago, the fusion passages between the Death Realm and the Netherworld had expanded significantly.
The world passage expansion halted abruptly when it approached the upper seal of the Netherworld, then began to extend sideways.
Fang Heng’s retinas displayed game hints.
[Hint: The player expanded the Death Realm fusion passages. Current God-level necromancy level: Level 68.]
Not far away, dark clouds swirled in the sky, and golden descent passages fell from high above.
Adam entered the Netherworld.
A shadow emanated from Adam, rapidly flying toward Fang Heng’s location.
"You’re late," Fang Heng said.
"Don’t mention it. It’s all just a bunch of troublesome imps," Adam replied.
Zane assumed human form, levitating beside Fang Heng, shrugging. "We just ran through all the churches. Some refused to cooperate. Looks like they want to jack up the price."
"Hmm, predictable," Fang Heng said.
Zane licked his lips, "Brother Fang Heng, it seems these people won’t cooperate easily. Should I contact Augustine and pressure them using the City Lord’s mansion as leverage?"
"No need. Things are already noisy enough, and I’ve already given them one chance. Now it’s their turn to come to us," Fang Heng said, transforming into bat form and flying into the sky.
As the Death Realm passages rapidly expanded, nearby churches adjacent to the expansion were predicted to be affected by dense Black Fog within two days.
So they had to solve this problem quickly.
If negotiation fails, then force it!
"Hehe, Brother Fang Heng, wait for me."
Zane sensed fun ahead, chuckled, and transformed into a shadow to chase after Fang Heng.
Within half an hour, Fang Heng returned to human form, standing on a black wasteland. With a flick of his wrist, several runes appeared in his hand, which he hurled into the distance.
"Shoo! Shoo shoo shoo!!"
Twenty-eight Underworld Hunters emerged from the exploded runes, quickly fading back into shadows.
Faith points accumulated over a week had been converted into twenty-eight Underworld Hunters.
It was time to test their combat strength.
Looking up, Fang Heng scanned the nearby Netherworld temple, slowly approaching it while murmuring, "This is Caleb’s guarded domain."
Zane nodded, "I remember this brat. Annoying. Let’s deal with him."
A small team of death knights gathered in front of the temple—five in total.
Sensing Fang Heng approaching, the death knight squad slowly turned to face him, their Netherworld warhorses emitting low warning sounds.
"Humph!"
Fang Heng snorted and did not advance, merely raising his hand slightly toward the stone tablet at the center of the temple.
Half a month of cultivation in the Netherworld had further improved his control over its aura, allowing him to destroy the outer seal of the stone tablet from a distance without approaching.
The dense aura of death around him instantly surged toward the central stone tablet.
"Buzz..."
The tablet blossomed with dark light.
After a brief moment, the lock chains attached to the tablet corroded and completely lost effect, falling to the ground.
Done.
Fang Heng entered soul body form again and, together with Zane, hid nearby to observe.
