Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate-Chapter 75 - 74: Deal

In a low gasp, the contempt on the young man’s face vanished instantly, replaced by deep apprehension.

Unexpectedly, this Plant Type Lord actually has Flying Type species troops!

And judging by the numbers, there were as many as ten.

If a fight really broke out, although he was confident he could win, he would certainly lose a significant number of species, which would be a loss overall.

After all, they mainly came here for trade and business.

"Lord, look over there, someone is coming!"

At this moment, a startled exclamation came from beside him.

The young man who was pondering with furrowed brows suddenly withdrew his gaze and looked towards the end of the street.

Amidst a rumble of footsteps, a massive procession appeared at the other end of the street, quickly approaching them.

"This is..."

The young man’s eyes widened, shocked at the suddenly appearing procession.

It turned out to be Plant Species troops he had never seen before.

The massive formation of the procession was even more terrifying than the one beside him!

Such formidable strength, is it really the Lord of this barren land?

The young man was immediately stunned.

And during his moment of astonishment, Lin You had already brought the Plant Legion in front of them and came to a gradual stop.

"Are you the traveling merchant caravan from the Flame River Kingdom?"

Even Lin You’s eyes held a hint of surprise.

Though he already knew there was a Lord among the arriving caravan.

But seeing them with his own eyes still left him feeling very surprised and even vigilant.

Sitting on the back of a Wood Lion, he continued to scrutinize the other side.

The young man did the same.

While observing the species behind Lin You, he was secretly astonished.

Lords are unable to view detailed information on each other’s species, but they can view basic information such as names and levels.

When he saw that those beside Lin You were all Tier Six species like his, one can imagine how shocked he was.

What was most unbelievable to him.

Was that Lin You had so many different types of species, at least five types in sight!

How could a newly arrived Lord have so many types of species?

Not daring to underestimate him, he quickly said: "Having just arrived, let me first introduce myself. I am Zhou Muyuan from the Flame River Kingdom, here to do some trading in the Great Wilderness Kingdom. How should I address you, my friend?"

"Just call me Lin You," Lin You replied, "So you crossed over from the other side of the Gobi Desert?"

"Yes." Zhou Muyuan nodded awkwardly, "The territory’s resources are scarce, so I had to come out to earn some Magic Energy and sell some stuff."

If Brother Lin You has any needs, I can also sell some specialties from the Flame River Kingdom to you, and of course, the price will be cheaper for you."

Lin You’s gaze shifted slightly: "Do you have any Magic Powder?"

Surprised, Zhou Muyuan raised an eyebrow: "Of course, are you planning to build a Protective Shield for your territory?"

"How did you know?"

Lin You was a bit taken aback.

Zhou Muyuan chuckled: "Because I also created a Protective Shield, otherwise, do you think I would dare to come so far for business?"

Goodness, he indeed came prepared.

Lin You suddenly had a newfound respect for this guy.

Also, judging by the number of Tier Six species accompanying him, it’s clear he’s no ordinary person, this Primordial Continent truly hides many talents.

"By the way, Brother Lin You."

At this moment, Zhou Muyuan’s voice came again.

As he instructed his followers to unload the goods, he said, "You must have just arrived on the Primordial Continent like me, right?"

"Yes, is there a problem?"

"No, I was just curious, how could someone with your strength be allocated to such a desolate place."

"Maybe it’s just bad luck..."

Lin You felt a sense of helplessness, unwilling to elaborate.

Soon.

Zhou Muyun brought a bag of Magic Powder, protected by several Centaur Species, and approached Lin You.

"Five Demon Crystals per unit, how much do you want?"

"Demon Crystals? What’s that?" Lin You was puzzled.

"Uh...you don’t even know what Demon Crystals are?" Zhou Muyuan looked at Lin You as if he were a strange creature.

Seeing Lin You’s confused look, he sighed in relief: "Brother, you’re in an even worse situation than I am. The universal currency on the Primordial Continent is Demon Crystals, which can be exchanged one-to-one with Magic Energy."

"Trade between territories, territory taxes, transactions between people and cultivators are all settled using Demon Crystals."

"Is that so?"

Lin You suddenly realized.

It also reflects how poor his territory is, with no need for money, nor any cultivators present, otherwise, he wouldn’t have never heard about it.

Summoning the territory interface, he clicked on Magic Energy and noticed an option to convert to Demon Crystals, which he hadn’t noticed before.

He tried converting a bit of Magic Energy.

The next second, a thumb-sized black Crystal Stone appeared in his hand.

It turns out that it condenses the virtual Magic Energy into a tangible Crystal Stone, which was somewhat unexpected.

In that case.

Once his territory grows stronger in the future, shouldn’t he be able to earn commissions from transactions within the territory and convert them to Magic Energy?

"Of course, Demon Crystals are just a term, you can use any method you like for transactions." Zhou Muyuan continued.

"If that’s the case, I’ll take 500 units first."

units would require 2500 Magic Energy.

Although Lin You wanted to buy more for backup, he had almost spent all his earned Magic Energy over the past few days to expand his Tier Six species to fifty, leaving only a bit over three thousand points.

After trading for the Magic Powder, Lin You spent another five hundred Magic Energy.

At a price of one Magic Energy for five pounds, he bought two thousand five hundred pounds of rice from Zhou Muyuan, intending to use it as "wages" for his people to develop the territory and also to vary his own diet.

Mind you.

This guy’s goods were indeed comprehensive, even having rice.

It’s clear he was assigned to a relatively prosperous territory, recruiting so many species in such a short time and even coming out for trade.

Compared to Lin You, it’s like heaven and earth, not at all comparable.

Zhou Muyuan, who had earned Magic Energy, was all smiles, looking entirely different from when he first arrived.

"In light of your generosity, I will share an additional piece of information with you for free."

"What information?"

After putting the items into personal space, Lin You looked at Zhou Muyuan again.

Zhou Muyuan cleared his throat and mysteriously said with his head down: "I’ve heard that even within a Duchy, Lords can slaughter each other with tacit approval according to the rules."

"But... don’t they worry about causing disorder in the Duchy?"

"Worry? Why worry, do you know how many Lords arrive on this continent every day? To put it bluntly, the least valuable thing on this continent is Lords!"

"That’s true." Lin You couldn’t help but nod.

Then, he looked at Zhou Muyuan with a strange expression.

"Aren’t you afraid that by telling me this, I’ll get rid of you now?"

"Don’t." Zhou Muyuan drew a deep breath, "We are neighbors at least, right? In the future, we might even have the opportunity to cooperate and open up trade routes, which makes more sense than fighting, doesn’t it?"

"Looks like you came prepared." Lin You’s face once again donned a smile.

The earlier remark was just said casually.

For he knew, even if he could indeed eliminate the other party, he would likely lose a lot of species and get Yellow Sand City involved too.

In such a critical development phase, it would be quite a loss.

Since the other side managed to cross the Gobi Desert to the Great Wilderness Kingdom, it’s clear he has some abilities.

Moreover, as Zhou Muyuan mentioned.

He originally planned to open a trade route between the two kingdoms, having such a neighbor might actually be quite convenient.
