Chapter 110 The Fierce Predator
"Commander Lin Yi, if you have any needs, you can tell Akali. I believe she will be able to meet them." After saying this, King Pinggu tactfully pushed open the door and walked out, leaving the two of them alone.
Banks place great importance on customer privacy, especially for high-value clients like Lin Yi. Apart from dedicated service personnel, no one else can be present at the scene.
After Akali receives Lin Yi, she will sign a confidentiality agreement and be isolated for an era. In fact, if Lin Yi requests it, Akali will be sealed away until death.
It can be said that from the moment Lin Yi was led into this reception room by the King of Pinggu, Akali's future fate was entirely tied to Lin Yi.
The universe is a brutal and naked law of the jungle, where the weak are subservient to the strong.
Akali clearly understood this principle as well. Despite her highly professional training, Lin Yi could still sense a hint of nervousness in her demeanor.
"I need to entrust the First Bank of the Universe to collect these resources for me. Here is the list—"
Lin Yi handed over some of the resources needed for the Zerg Queen Alyssa to restore her divine body to Akali.
All of the resources Alyssa has to restore her divine body can be redeemed in the Virtual Universe Company's treasury, except for one resource that happens to be out of stock—"Mancherdis Holy Tears," a resource produced in the sacred land of the Mancherdis race on the frontier of the primordial universe, which has the ability to nourish the soul and calm its disorder.
Human beings are generally very strong in will and have very pure souls. This is one of the reasons why many strong people in the human race have reached the peak despite their poor innate aptitude.
Therefore, even if a human powerhouse is killed and falls into a deep sleep, their soul will hardly be disturbed. This "Tears of Mancherdis" is not popular in human territory and is relatively rare.
However, the "Tears of Mancherdis" is an indispensable recovery resource for the Zerg, especially for the Zerg Queen.
As a master of souls, the Zerg Queen enslaves a large number of servants and breeds a massive Zerg army. Consequently, her soul imprint is inevitably scattered into multiple strands, bearing the soul connection between the servants and the Zerg, making her soul burdened with an extremely heavy load.
When in good condition, there's no problem; the massive amount of divine power imprinted with the soul's mark can sustain it.
However, her divine body was severely damaged, and upon awakening from her slumber, the massive amount of soul imprints exacerbated her burden, requiring the nourishment and soothing of "Mancherdis Holy Tears".
Akali took the list, glanced at it, and then her pupils contracted. "Collect 3 units of Mancherdis's Holy Tear," reward 5 Treasure Points, Commander Lin Yi, this—"
Akali couldn't help but be nervous. The list of commissions she had was extremely valuable. If she could close this deal, the commission she received would be enough to make her the richest person in a mid-level imperial civilization.
However, Akali, with her exceptional professionalism, resisted the temptation and explained, "Commander Lin Yi, the 'Tears of Mancherdis' are extremely rare. Three units of 'Tears of Mancherdis' would definitely not cost five Treasure Points, at most four!"
Lin Yi smiled slightly, thinking to himself, "The world's number one bank, as expected of one of the five major powers. This Akali is just an insignificant employee, yet she hasn't lost her composure when faced with such a valuable order, and she can even consider things from the customer's perspective. That's truly remarkable."
Without showing it on his face, Lin Yi nodded seriously, "I know its value, but I urgently need it, so I'll increase it by 25%."
The price.
"Hmm~! I see!" Akali nodded knowingly and didn't try to persuade her any further.
If a five-point order is cancelled due to her problem, the consequences she will face will be disastrous.
With practiced ease, Akali pulled out a blue light screen and, after a few seconds of operation, smiled sweetly and said, "Commander Lin Yi, I have already posted the acquisition request for you. You will need to pay a 0.1% handling fee. Based on the current exchange rate between Treasure Points and Hunyuan, you will need to pay 500 billion Hunyuan."
Lin Yi was very satisfied with the other party's efficiency. As expected of a force that started in finance, their efficiency was indeed high.
If placed in a virtual universe company, it would have to go through a series of processes, including capital verification, accounting, and approval at each level.
Even if he has the authority to command, it would still take at least half a day to successfully publish it.
Of course, this is also because the Virtual Universe Company is more authoritative. The First Bank of the Universe is more like a central state-owned enterprise, while the Virtual Universe Company is more like an official human organization. The different levels of credibility naturally lead to different procedures.
Lin Yi paid the money readily.
"Is there anything else I can do for you?" Akali asked symbolically.
She was already feeling quite lightheaded, as if she were drunk. No wonder she heard from her "senior sisters" that if you were lucky enough to close a deal here, you'd be set for life.
It really is true!
Lin Yi waved his hand, "That's all. I just hope to get the Mancherdis Holy Tear as soon as possible. If 5 Treasure Points aren't enough, I can add more."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Back in his private space, he received an email from the world's number one bank: "[Dear Mr. Lin Yi, please rate this service and indicate whether you require staff member Akali.]" This email was permanently archived.
"Permanently lock Akali away"?
Lin Yi shook his head. Although his collection of "Tears of Mancherdis" might arouse suspicion from those with ulterior motives, there was no need to be that careful.
"Keep it a secret for 1000 years!"
However, to be on the safe side, Lin Yi chose to keep his information a secret for a thousand years. As for a thousand years later, given his cultivation speed, he would no longer fear anyone's suspicion.
Exit the virtual universe.
A mighty will suddenly descended, and in the instant of its arrival, it isolated the entire void. Lin Yi was clearly in Chaos City, but it seemed as if he had been dragged into another space-time, a battlefield world filled with mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and countless sharp and oppressive forces.
Lin Yi was startled at first, but upon seeing the Chaos City Lord in front of him, he bowed and greeted him, "City Lord."
The Lord of Chaos City remained motionless and silent, his scarlet eyes scrutinizing Lin Yi intently, as if trying to re-examine him and see through him completely.
Lin Yi felt a chill run down his spine. This gaze was both unfamiliar and familiar to him. It was the same gaze he had when he first entered Chaos City and met the City Lord of Chaos. It was a gaze that seemed to see right through him.
Unpleasant memories were stirred up, and I felt unhappy. Boom!
The will, honed to the level of a cosmic overlord, was suddenly unleashed, causing the entire space of this alternate dimension to tremble slightly. The sharp pressure that permeated this space was completely shut off in the face of the will of a cosmic overlord!
Universe Overlords—those who can be called Overlords after the word "universe" are all super beings whose power overwhelms all. Even the strongest beings of ordinary races in the universe are no more than this level. These are truly overlord-level powerhouses, needing no further categorization!
Even without the support of true cosmic overlord-level strength, Lin Yi's will still possess formidable power. Even the Chaos City Lord couldn't help but take notice, his heart stirred with emotion, "He's gotten stronger again!"
"They're even stronger than those three clones from the extraterritorial battlefield!"
