Chapter 1136 - 479: Trading with Wang Ling’Er
Chapter 1136: Chapter 479: Trading with Wang Ling’Er
"Exchange for Genetic Species?"
Wang Ling’Er paused in surprise, hesitating slightly: "This..."
She chuckled wryly: "Brother Liang, it’s not that I’m unwilling, but I’m using each Genetic Species one by one. My Spirit Jade Island will need to cultivate more Genetic Species experts in the future. If I trade them to you, then..."
She initially thought Liang Yuan wanted her help in dealing with the Water God Sect’s Plague Priest.
Unexpectedly, Liang Yuan wanted to trade Genetic Species with her.
Genetic Species are strategic resources. Any group mastering them can cultivate powerful Genetic Species experts.
Wang Ling’Er doesn’t have Floating Island resources; she only snatched her Genetic Species from the Water God Sect and Yellow Earth Divine Origin.
That’s why she was in a bit of a predicament.
After all, she needs to cultivate the power of Spirit Jade Island too.
She considered for a moment and said, "Brother Liang, if you personally need a Genetic Species, I can give you one."
The value of Genetic Species is undeniably high.
She’s willing to take one out and give it to Liang Yuan as repayment for his life-saving favor in the past.
Liang Yuan chuckled upon hearing this: "You’ve misunderstood, Ling’Er. It’s not about getting your Genetic Species for free, nor about exchanging them for ordinary resources."
Wang Ling’Er was taken aback, looking at Liang Yuan with curiosity.
"Brother Liang, then what is this?"
Liang Yuan replied, "I have a batch of Ice Attribute Genetic Species but lack other types, so I need to exchange them."
"Does your side need Ice Attribute Genetic Species?"
"What! Ice Attribute Genetic Species!"
Wang Ling’Er widened her eyes, a hint of joy appearing on her face.
She hurriedly asked, "How do you have Ice Attribute Genetic Species? It’s very difficult to find this type in the market now."
Liang Yuan chuckled: "So, you’re willing to trade them?"
"Trade, of course. How many do you have?"
Liang Yuan smiled: "About a dozen."
"What, so many!"
Wang Ling’Er was shocked again.
You know, refining a single Genetic Species requires a large amount of mutant beast blood.
Having a dozen must have involved killing many Genetic Mutation Beasts.
A single Initial Tier Genetic Mutation Beast can only refine about three Genetic Species.
Wang Yu’Er couldn’t help but say, "Brother Liang, where did you get so many Ice Attribute Genetic Species?"
Liang Yuan smiled: "Do you know Mist City?"
Upon hearing ’Mist City,’ Wang Ling’Er was suddenly surprised: "Isn’t it the Ice Attribute Floating Island that’s been widely talked about recently?"
"Word has spread from Guangfu that a Floating Island like this appeared near Linjiang University. The Earth Mother Sect discovered it in advance and tried to act hastily, but the island was already occupied by someone."
"It is said that this person calls themselves the Master of Fog City and has refined the Brain Core and Heart Core, making it impossible for others to snatch away. Before long, Mist City will likely become another major force in Linjiang."
"Wait, you obtained your Ice Attribute Genetic Species from Mist City?"
Liang Yuan nodded with a smile: "Yes."
"I won’t go into details on how I got them. How many can you exchange for?"
Wang Ling’Er, hearing this, did not inquire further and decisively said: "I’ll take them all!"
Liang Yuan was taken aback and asked in surprise: "Does Spirit Jade Island have that many Ice Attribute Superpower Users?"
Bear in mind, only Ice Attribute Superpower Users can use Ice Attribute Genetic Species.
Otherwise, given the number of superpower users in Yangshan, how could only Zhao Kai use a Genetic Species?
Wang Ling’Er laughed: "I’m not hiding it from you, Brother Liang. Your Ice Attribute Genetic Species are in dire shortage on the market right now."
"The Master of Fog City from Mist City hasn’t yet connected with Guangfu, so it’s likely that Ice Attribute Genetic Species haven’t been sold yet."
"Which means, your batch of Ice Attribute Genetic Species is unique in Guangfu."
"I can’t digest all of them here, but I can take them to Guangfu. There’s definitely a large demand for Ice Attribute Genetic Species."
"Besides that, Ice Attribute Genetic Species have a very strong attribute restraint against Water Attribute Genetic Species."
"I think the enemies of the Water God Sect will surely seize this opportunity."
"So buying your Ice Attribute Genetic Species is already profitable."
Liang Yuan laughed too, marveling at how Wang Ling’Er was able to become the Island Lord with such a nimble mind.
He nodded and said: "Alright, ten pieces then."
"I can provide only Earth Attribute, Spirit Attribute, and Water Attribute Genetic Species from my side. Which ones would you like to exchange for?" Wang Ling’Er asked.
Liang Yuan thought for a moment, noting that there are quite a few Earth Attribute, Spirit Attribute, and Water Attribute superpower users in Yangshan.
However, Liang Yuan hasn’t discerned the difference between Elemental Attributes and Spirit Attributes yet.
You see, whether it’s Earth Attribute or Water Attribute superpower users, their main attribute also happens to be Spirit Attribute.
But they are Elemental Ability Users, so their strength manifests in elements rather than Spiritual Power.
Thinking of this, he looked at Wang Ling’Er.
She returned from Guangfu, where there’s more information and knowledge.
He couldn’t help but ask: "What’s the difference between Spirit Attribute and Elemental Attribute Genetic Species? I remember even Elemental Ability Users have a main attribute of Spiritual Power, right?"
Wang Ling’Er smiled: "Earth Attribute Superpower Users have a main attribute of Spiritual Power, but on a genetic level, they rely more on Earth Element Genetic Species."
"So when they want to condense Genetic Species, they need Earth Attribute Genetic Species."
"And Spirit Ability Users, the main direction of their genes remains in Spiritual Power."
"The Spirit Ability Users mentioned here refer to those who awakened their powers initially with pure Spiritual Power."
"For example, users of Telekinesis, Spiritual Illusion Technique, and Spiritual Attack need Spirit Attribute Genetic Species."
"Currently, Spirit Attribute Genetic Species are also high in demand, considered rare commodities because Spirit Class Mutant Beasts are harder to kill."
"The batch I have is also snatched from the Water God Sect, and the quantity is limited."
Liang Yuan immediately asked, "Are there five?"
Wang Ling’Er hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I can give you three."
Liang Yuan thought of Dong Yan and Yang Mei.
Dong Yan is definitely a Spirit Ability User, but whether Yang Mei is an Ice Attribute Superpower User or a Spirit Ability User, Liang Yuan is not sure yet.
However, three Spirit Class Genetic Species are enough for the women around him to use.
He thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then three Spirit Class, three Water Attribute, and four Earth Attribute Genetic Species."
There are actually more Water Attribute Superpower Users in Yangshan, with relatively fewer Earth Attribute Superpower Users.
But often, the fewer there are, the higher the value.
Although it sounds a bit unpleasant, currently, the construction in Yangshan relies heavily on Earth Attribute Superpower Users.
Therefore, Liang Yuan wants to cultivate more Earth Attribute Superpower Users.
Another point is that whether it is Earth Attribute or Water Attribute Genetic Species, he needs to take one himself, and even for the Spirit Class Genetic Species, he needs to take one.
So the Genetic Species he can distribute to his subordinates are actually quite limited.
Of course, depending on the specific situation later, if the threat from the Water God Sect is too great, naturally it would be better to prioritize enhancing everyone’s combat abilities.
He can afford to wait a bit, after all, he has already condensed two types of Genetic Species, and in terms of combat power, he’s confident he could take on any Genetic Species expert in battle.
Besides, his current main combat strength isn’t solely reliant on Genetic Species capabilities; it also depends on the strength of various attributes.
With the system in place, he can continually add points and significantly enhance combat power.
Wang Ling’Er laughed and said, "Deal."
She then took out a cloth pouch from her bosom, surprising Liang Yuan as he saw it, exclaiming, "Qiu Kongyu’s Dimensional Bag?"
Wang Ling’Er looked at Liang Yuan, surprised, "Brother Liang, do you have one too? This item is hard to find even in Guangfu City, and whenever it appears, it’s always snatched up."
"I went through a lot of trouble finding it."
Liang Yuan shook his head with a smile, "I’ve seen this on a friend."
Wang Ling’Er laughed, "Then your friend must be very capable."
She poured out three transparent Genetic Species and seven earth-yellow Genetic Species from the Dimensional Bag.
Liang Yuan kept it simple, reaching into his pocket, though he actually took out ten Ice Attribute Genetic Species from his inventory.
The two handed the items to each other, inspected them, and both smiled.
Even life-saving benefactors should examine such important items carefully.
With the transaction complete, the mutual trust between them deepened significantly.
Wang Ling’Er volunteered, "By the way, when I was outside just now, I heard you talking. Brother Liang, is your shelter being targeted by the Water God Sect?"
Liang Yuan nodded, "Yes."
He recounted the virus outbreak situation in Yangshan.
Wang Ling’Er immediately said, "It must be the Water God Sect’s Plague Priest. Brother Liang, do you need my help?"
Liang Yuan promptly responded, "I was just about to ask if you guys have time, I can provide compensation."
Wang Ling’Er smiled, "You saved me back then, and I’ve always remembered that favor. You’re in trouble, I’ll definitely help."
Liang Yuan shook his head, "One thing doesn’t cancel out another. Spirit Jade Island is helping; I can’t let your people work for nothing."
"What does your side need?"
Wang Ling’Er thought for a moment, "Let’s settle with Superpower Stones."
"We’ll help your shelter drive back the Water God Sect, and you pay Spirit Jade Island three thousand Superpower Stones. If you have Water Attribute Superpower Stones, just two thousand will suffice."
Three thousand Superpower Stones is no small sum for any faction.
However, given Yangshan Minerals, with its rich superpower ore veins, three thousand is just about two to three days of production from the Yangshan Mine.
Liang Yuan readily agreed, "Let’s do it."
Wang Ling’Er also smiled, suddenly thinking of something, she asked, "Oh, Brother Liang, which shelter are you at now? Want to come to mine?"
She joked, "If you come to mine, I’ll make you a Vice Island Lord."
Wang Yu’Er clapped her hands and cheered, "Great, great, Brother Liang is so powerful. If he joins us, Spirit Jade Island will be even stronger."
Liang Yuan was both amused and helpless; these two little girls actually wanted to recruit him to join them.
He shook his head helplessly, "I’m afraid I can’t."
"Ah? Why not?" Wang Yu’Er couldn’t help but ask.
Wang Ling’Er also looked at Liang Yuan with surprise.
Could it be that Liang Yuan’s shelter is better than her Spirit Jade Island?
She found it hard to believe that aside from the Floating Island, nothing could compare to her Spirit Jade Island.
Despite its small size, Spirit Jade Island can move at any time and floats atop water, with no fear of floods.
This alone makes it better than any land-based shelter.
Liang Yuan laughed, "Because I am the leader of my shelter."
"If I join you, what about my shelter?"
Wang Ling’Er and Wang Yu’Er were both stunned.
Wang Ling’Er slapped her forehead, smiling bitterly, "I should have known; Brother Liang, someone as capable as you certainly wouldn’t be under someone else’s command."
"Brother Liang, where is your shelter?"
Liang Yuan chuckled and said, "Yangshan!"
"Yangshan? Is that the Yangshan National Forest Park from before the great flood?"
Liang Yuan smiled and nodded, "Yes, that area."
"Gosh, I wanted to take refuge there too. If I hadn’t found the giant turtle, I would definitely have gone there."
Wang Ling’Er immediately laughed, then curiously asked, "When you went to Yangshan, was there no one occupying it?"
She clearly remembered that when Liang Yuan and the others went to Yangshan, it had already been half a year since the great deluge.
At that time, a mountain range like Yangshan should have long been occupied by people.
Liang Yuan smiled and then said seriously, "We can talk about that later. Could we first head to Yangshan? I’m a bit worried that the Water God Sect has already made a move."
