After calming his emotions, Lear asked curiously.

"The priest you mentioned... Does he really possess such incredible skills to foresee the future?"

The Spider Boggart's face, marked with patterns, showed a subtle expression as she shook her head and gently explained.

"Sir, divination and foreseeing the future have quite a distinction. Divination can reveal whether events are dangerous or not, but predicting specific details is difficult... Foreseeing the future, however, requires divine power."

"The priest's divination this time was about trade... He divined seven times, and each time the swamp appeared as a great risk."

"Clearly, a new force has arisen here; otherwise, how could trade be possible?"

That certainly makes sense.

Lear nodded.

"My Weilu City doesn't have many specialties and treasures; what do you want?"

The Spider Boggart's gaze turned to the Cold-blooded Cavalry not far away, full of desire.

"Equipment, a large number of equipment!"

In the wilderness, there are few forces like Weilu City with fixed territory, stable construction sites, and high-level blacksmiths.

Most tribes, even if they obtained High Tier Ore, could only smelt it crudely.

The weapons forged from it were often unbearable to look at.

This type of armor, the first glance was enough to make one excited beyond control.

There was no need for any verification; just a distant look was enough to feel the indestructible armor on those Lizard-men.

"Equipment? What do you plan to trade with us?"

"Sir, the Night Shadow Clan controls several mineral veins, enslaving over two thousand slaves to mine for us."

"We are willing to trade ores for weapons and armor..."

"Additionally, if your territory lacks anything that we have, everything can be put on the table!"

"Ore... What if I need refined gold?"

"The quantity of refined gold is extremely limited; we only have a reserve of over a hundred kilograms. However, if you need it, we can provide it all!!!"

"Provide it all?... Are you preparing for war?"

"Yes, sir. The Night Shadow Clan has encountered vicious enemies and will inevitably enter war with them soon; we have no choice but to acquire greater strength."

"There is nothing more direct than weapons and armor."

"You are honest."

"Sir, the priest has instructed me not to hide anything from you... Only sincerity is the foundation of cooperation."

"Oh? I'm quite curious about your priest."

"I enjoy dealing with smart people."

"However, the armor currently produced by Weilu City is designed based on my army's template and is not suited for your wear. If proceeding with trade, additional modifications are necessary."

"This will require time."

"Sir, could you tell me approximately how long it will take?"

"How many sets of armor do you need?"

"The more, the better."

"Don't just give vague answers... I need the minimum number you can accept."

"At least... a thousand sets! Enough to equip a brigade!"

"A thousand sets... Hmm... That's quite challenging."

"Can Weilu City provide 2 Star level armor, would you be willing to accept that?"

"2 Star level?!"

"Willing, very willing!! Indeed, the priest's divination is divine will! Praise be to you!!"

"Today is October 11th; the earliest we can deliver these thousand sets of armor to you is by the end of November. Can you accept this timeline?"

"God above, you, you said the end of November?!"

"Acceptable, very acceptable!!!"

"That's wonderful; I previously estimated the earliest would be December or even next January..."

"So, it seems your battle isn't that urgent."

"Sir, the enemies have been eyeing us for some time now, having made several moves as early as three months ago."

"But since we are not assured of victory, we've had to bide our time... But no later than December, this battle will undoubtedly erupt."

"Ideally, I would have your weapons equipped tomorrow if possible, but... That is merely wishful thinking."

"Good, since it's all acceptable, I'll have someone discuss the detailed pricing with you."

After finishing, Lear waved for the White Crow Commerce Association president, Blando, to come over.

He wasn't very familiar with the weapons trade; before venturing into the wilderness, the weapons and armor on Wetland Lizard-men were all gifted to him by Firina.

Having navigated the business scene in Lorand City for over twenty years, Blando frequently ventured into the wilderness for trade and was more suitable for this task.

Upon hearing the call, Blando hurried over and was startled by the Spider Boggart's terrifying appearance.

Standing over three meters tall, her lower half a black-brown spider body covered with bristles and patterns, while her upper half was human but entirely covered with patterns, presenting a distressingly scary sight.

Although strange life has been encountered often in Weilu City these days, such a fearsome and chilling presence still caused his back to feel a bit cold.

These arachnid creatures are known as the death god incarnate in the wilderness.

It is said that these monsters enjoy binding humans with webs, dissolving them into blood with venom, and then slowly sucking them dry.

"Blando, the Night Shadow Clan wishes to establish trade with us, planning to purchase armor with ores."

"We will be crafting 2 Star level full body armor for them; you're more familiar with the weapon market, so go negotiate the price with this... Hmm... lady?"

Blando's spirit was instantly lifted.

Negotiation was his special skill.

Thus, he delightedly accepted the task, going off to the side with the Spider Boggart to discuss specific pricing.

A few probing questions later, the seasoned negotiator gleaned a rough understanding of the Night Shadow Clan's situation, establishing a baseline before launching into an intense price negotiation with them.
