Chapter 463: Chapter 205: Gymnasium (Seeking Basic Monthly Votes at the Beginning of the Month)_2

Wang Tao asked Lan Yulian about the location of Zijin Base’s plantation and then changed the subject. He took the initiative to ask about the ranking issue of Zijin Base and other forces.

Lan Yulian told Wang Tao that it was as he had imagined. The ranking was indeed in preparation for the Level 3 ability user slots.

However, while a higher rank makes it easier to obtain a slot, the higher the rank, the greater the cost. To secure a good position, one must be prepared to make sacrifices.

Just like the four major forces this time, although they had internally secured some slots, they had also deployed a large number of operatives…

There is no absolute fairness in the world, but relative fairness does exist. Zijin Base tries to maintain a state of relative fairness, which can prevent many problems.

The more Wang Tao understood, the more he felt that the leader of Zijin Base was formidable, somewhat different from the rumors outside. However, this was normal; everyone views a matter with some bias. What others say is never reliable; it’s only what one sees with one’s own eyes that is accurate.

“By the way, I heard that Zijin Base has a very special Crystal Core, which, if successfully fused, allows multiple ability users to combine their powers. Do you know which Crystal Core it is?”

“It’s an Ability that can spray a type of mucus. This mucus isn’t very sticky, but it can cause zombies to weaken…”

Lan Yulian explained briefly.

Wang Tao suddenly realized.

If it were possible to weaken zombies on a large scale, then indeed the chance of killing these zombies would be much higher.

Wang Tao asked a lot of questions, and Lan Yulian shared everything she could.

At this moment, Lan Yulian suddenly looked at Wang Tao and said:

“I’ve given you so much information, why don’t you come to our club?”

“No.”

Wang Tao immediately refused.

Lan Yulian was somewhat choked by this response.

It was bad enough that he refused, but his refusal was so perfunctory, after she had been so responsive to his queries.

Lu Yingfeng, who was beside them, found it hard to watch.

She said to Wang Tao:

“Wang Tao, you probably don’t know how strong our leader is. Many people who want to join our club don’t even qualify.”

“How strong? Do you have a ranking among you powerful ability users, and what rank is Madam Lan?”

Wang Tao asked directly.

“…”

They did indeed have a private ranking of combat strength, but Lan Yulian was not on the list.

However, this was not because Lan Yulian wasn’t good enough; her Ability just wasn’t geared towards frontal combat.

“Our leader isn’t a combat ability user, but a healing ability user! Such a healing ability, only our leader has it in the whole Zijing City! Not to mention that our leader is also a physician… If you join our club, as long as it’s not a fatal injury, we can save you!”

“Oh? Healing ability users?”

Healing ability users were indeed rare; apart from this Lan Yulian, Wang Tao hadn’t seen another. Ding Yuqin didn’t count; hers was a Hidden Ability.

But Wang Tao had indeed seen a zombie with a healing ability, and he still kept a Crystal Core that possessed a healing ability…

“How about it, are you interested now?”

Lu Yingfeng suddenly spoke up with a slight sense of smug satisfaction.

Normally, she was rather cold and wouldn’t act like this, but for some reason, she felt very relaxed while talking to Wang Tao.

“Indeed, I am a bit interested.”

“Then… as long as you join us, you can enjoy the treatment from our leader!”

“Not joining,” Wang Tao still shook his head, but he continued, “unless you tell me why you are so insistent on me joining. Don’t fob me off with the reasons you’ve given before; I know there must be a reason.”

“…”

Seeing Wang Tao’s insistence and knowing that they dared not reveal the reason if he didn’t join, both women felt a headache. They held a special Crystal Core that seemed very powerful and could only be fused by males. Currently, there were internal conflicts about this, and if outsiders attacked them over this issue, it would be troublesome…

Seeing that neither woman wanted to reveal more, Wang Tao shrugged his shoulders.

At this point, he was actually becoming curious. But he definitely wouldn’t make the move himself.

After the meal, and having accompanied Jiang Shixue with some food and fruit, Wang Tao prepared to leave.

At that moment, Lan Yulian called out to him.

Wang Tao thought she had changed her mind, but that wasn’t the case; instead, she wanted to purchase some Crystal Cores and potions from him.

It seems that they must have tested them yesterday, and the results were good.

“How much do you want? I happen to have a batch of goods here. If you ask later, I might have already sold them off.”

Wang Tao had plenty of items on hand, but he needed to pretend that they were in short supply.

Lan Yulian and Lu Yingfeng weren’t suspicious, considering these goods were indeed good and limited in quantity made sense.

Wang Tao had already set the prices for these items.

One Rejuvenation Potion sold for three Level 1 Crystal Cores of any type and Quality. His cost of producing one potion was one Level 1 Crystal Core and a small amount of water and food, and he could produce five potions at a time! So at this price, he was making a huge profit.

As for the prices of Crystal Cores, they fluctuated somewhat due to the variety of types.

Overall though, they were cheaper than the market price. And these high-quality Crystal Cores were not easy to find on the market; they were virtually priceless, mainly in the hands of the major forces…

And these were discounted prices for Wang Tao; he charged others more. After all, different people required different treatment, and as big clients, Lan Yulian and her group definitely needed to feel like they were getting a good deal.
