SOUL LAND IV (DOULUO DALU) : ULTIMATE FIGHTING - Chapter 708 - Not Selling Slaves

Chapter 708 – Not Selling Slaves

Although 400 purple emblems were considered quite a lot, it was still very low compared to four warships.

How much was the ammunition of the 33 Sky Wings warship worth? According to Lan Xuanyu’s estimation, it was worth at least 3,000 purple emblems.

Although the Purple Flame Pirate crew’s warships could not be compared to the 33 Sky Wings warship, it was still a Meteor-class warship! They actually gave him so little.

“Isn’t this too little?” Lan Mengqin couldn’t help but ask. Qian Lei, who was next to her, said the same thing at the same time.

Lan Mengqin rolled her eyes at him. “Why are you copying me?”

Qian Lei opened his mouth but didn’t say anything. He didn’t know why, but the stronger he was, the more he feared Lan Mengqin.

Lan Xuanyu looked at Liu Guiting, who smiled bitterly. “This is how the exchange works. They rely on this to earn money, and this is the difference in price. It is simple and convenient to make transactions here, but it is definitely not worth it. But most of the time, pirates would choose to make transactions in the center to avoid trouble.”

Upon hearing his words, Lan Xuanyu understood a little. Although Liu Guiting didn’t say it explicitly, his meaning was clear. This was simply a place to sell stolen goods. To pirates, it was a place to sell stolen goods. Why would there be a place to sell stolen goods among pirates? It was because they were like them, robbing robbers !

Many pirate teams had their own backgrounds. Could it be that they would head to Planet Heaven to sell their loot after plundering, especially warships ? If they were targeted by another party’s ‘background’, let’s not talk about whether they could handle it or not, how much trouble would there be?

Hence, this sort of exchange was simple and convenient, and they wouldn’t look into the source. It was the simplest way to get rid of stolen goods, so the price given would naturally be very low. The Pirate Lords had earned this difference.

Lan Xuanyu narrowed his eyes and nodded. “Deal.” The most important thing was to complete the transaction, and this time, he had managed to investigate the situation at the exchange center. This place might be quite useful for his future plans during the mission.

The transaction was completed very simply and they were even provided transport services. The exchange center could transport the rare metals to their warship.

Lan Xuanyu’s team didn’t have a warship, but they had the Ring of Fate, which was enough to store everything. But he didn’t do that. Instead, he directly used those basic rare metals at the exchange to exchange for rare metals that could be used for their Battle Armors.

In the end, they completed an exchange close to 100 tonnes of rare metals. Even if Lan Xuanyu’s forging success rate was as low as 10%, it was enough for the entire class to forge their Two-Word Battle Armors. This harvest was definitely very generous.

It seemed like they were at a disadvantage in the deal, but in fact, it was free stuff from robbing robbers ! They didn’t have to feel burdened by stealing pirates.

After completing the transaction, Lan Xuanyu called Liu Guiting in front of him and said indifferently, “I have two things for you to do now. Firstly, I don’t plan on selling the Purple Flame Pirates as slaves. There is a way to steal, and this isn’t what we want to do. So, think of a way to help me deal with these people. You can release them, but you can’t let them threaten us. Secondly, I need to bring my people to explore this planet. Whether it’s possible or not, and how we should do it. You handle these two matters well, I will allow you to join our 33 Sky Wings and stay here as our special agent. I will leave some funds and communication methods for you.”

Liu Guiting was stunned. Not selling them as slaves anymore? This was completely different from what the space pirates were usually doing. One had to know that due to the small population, the price of young slaves was quite good. The Purple Flame Pirates had quite a number of people too.

To Liu Guiting, he actually didn’t have much of a choice. Should he think of a way to save Shen Junjie and the others? He didn’t dare to think that way. Although the space pirates in front of him weren’t selling them as slaves, he definitely didn’t think that these people were kind. On the contrary, in his heart, he was even more afraid.

The other party had relied on a single warship to attack their pirate crew that had over ten warships and even used a weapon as destructive as antimatter missiles. They were fierce and decisive when they moved. He didn’t know why they didn’t sell them as slaves and he found that these people seemed even more mysterious.

There was another explanation for not selling them as slaves, to silence them. It was extremely easy to silence them in the middle of the universe.

“Are you really going to release them or…” Liu Guichao made a cutting gesture on his neck.

Lan Xuanyu said indifferently, “What’s the use of killing people? It’s not worth it. Let them go. Think of a way.”

Liu Guichao heaved a sigh of relief. “Alright, alright. What do you think of this, then? In the name of the Purple Flame Pirates, I will issue a request for help here and request for help directly from Planet Heaven, asking them to fetch the people from the Purple Flame Pirates. We can transport them here in a moment and I will find a place to lock up their slaves. Give me an authorization and tell them that I am the person in charge of watching over them. After the transaction is complete, you guys can leave. I will stay and wait for the people from Planet Heaven to come and pick them up. When the time comes, I will just let them go.”

Lan Xuanyu thought about it for a moment and said, “Sure.” He didn’t think much about whether Liu Guiting would run away with the Purple Flame Pirates or not. Anyway, after this matter was done, this Liu Guiting wouldn’t be of much use anymore. He just had to help them deal with the captives.

The reason why he didn’t sell them as slaves was because it crossed his bottom line. Stealing pirates could be said to be enforcing justice on behalf of the heavens, but if he sold them as slaves, then what was the difference between them and real space pirates? He didn’t want to bear such a stain on himself and his classmates. It wasn’t because he felt that he was high and mighty, but he just wanted to follow his heart. He thought so and did so.

None of the people around him raised any objections. Upon hearing that Lan Xuanyu no longer planned to sell slaves, their eyes became clearer.

As for planet exploration, it wasn’t difficult because there weren’t any restrictions put in place. It was just that once they left the exchange center, their safety would no longer be guaranteed.

Lan Xuanyu got Bing Tianliang and his team to stay behind and supervise Liu Guiting. Then, he informed Ding Zhuohan that they could bring two pirate ships full of people down. He parked them at the docking area outside of the Third Exchange Center but was not in a rush to conduct the transaction.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, they had to complete the mission first and then proceed with the transaction of the last two complete pirate spaceships. The assessment was done first to save time.

Lan Xuanyu, on the other hand, brought six members of his team out of the exchange center to carry out the Sky Fighter mission.

The environment of this planet wasn’t too bad. Although it wasn’t suitable for survival, there wasn’t any particularly bad natural phenomenon.

He released his spiritual power and quietly felt the changes around him. According to the information and Liu Guiting’s understanding of this place, there weren’t any living creatures on this planet. The risk of danger was very low, unless they encountered other pirates who were also investigating…

In order to ensure their safety, they did not leave the exchange center but found a place near it to stop. Lan Xuanyu indicated for Tang Yuge to begin.

Tang Yuge nodded and released her Martial Soul Avatar. In the next moment, she transformed into the Heavenly Stems Qilin. A ten-colored light flashed and disappeared into the ground. She had used her Earth Escape Technique and disappeared.

No one was more suited to search for rare metal ores than her. The others only had to protect her.
