Chapter 1728 Where Are We?

"Not only that, but for those outstanding talents, we need extra," he paused before adding, "I heard you have bones, a special type of product that was never seen or heard before in the universe. This is going like hot cake in the Ten Hell Lords upper circle, only accepting payment using these..."

"Are you telling me my bones can be used to pay others?!!" Hye didn't expect this. He was running low on crystals, and wouldn't have the ability to supply them to the mercenaries. He'd better use these over his forces and warriors, not over mercenaries.

But when he heard about his bones, his eyes shone brightly.

"I heard you have different grades of bones. The lowest grade can be used as a monthly payment for mid-tier mercenaries, and the higher grade ones can be used as annual payment for high-tier ones..." n-/0veLbIn

"This..." Hye paused for a second, before asking, "if we used one low grade bone as an annual payment to all mercenaries, what do you expect things to turn out?"

"This... Are you sure of this?!!!" the pirate king got shaken. He tried, and failed to even acquire a single bone before. Even when he asked for the task rewards given to him by other big names in the business to be in the form of bones, he got ignored right on the spot.

"Why should I be joking about this?" Hye grinned evilly, knowing from the shocking response on the pirate king's face that he hit the jackpot this time, "so it's going to help you recruit more mercenaries, right?"

"If you can supply enough, I'm sure we'll create a big fuss over there..." he paused, before adding, "but we need other things to discuss. We need a base, somewhere that's not easily accessible to anyone. We need it to be discrete and secretive, with access to portals so we can go to any place in the universe quite fast."

"Don't you have a base already?"

"..." she didn't have anything to say but to sign the contract. Before this, she was his business partner, but now she was his accomplice.

"Great," Hye laughed, before looking around, "where are we by the way? Are we near that war? Are we far?"

"We are safe as we are very, very far from there," the pirate king then said something about the sector they were currently in. As Hye didn't know what he meant, he turned to the nymph lady, and she seemed a bit surprised about something.

"We are close to the outer edge of the universe..." When she said her piece, Hye's eyes shone brightly.

"Are you telling me..."

"We aren't that far from that place... But..." she looked a bit hesitant, and the pirate king felt like he was missing something here.

"Hello, can any of you explain what the hell you are talking about?" he asked, but the two didn't respond to him.

"There must be a map installed in the ship," the nymph lady was more experienced in this from Hye, so he let her try but the pirate king suddenly interrupted her.

"You are messing things up here, let me get it for you... But..." he turned around before adding, "you have to thoroughly explain everything to me, ok?"

"Let's just check our current location on the map," the nymph lady was more excited than Hye about this, "then we'll tell you everything."

He was part of the little gang now, and it was expected for them to tell him about what was going on. As they checked the map that the pirate king brought from the spaceship, the nymph lady started to run a few calls to her old superiors.
