My Apocalypse Territory-Chapter 145: How is the Yield?

The blueprint was completed, and Kevin immediately placed it into the scanner.

Calm and composed, he ordered Li to move the materials, while instructing Huang to control the switches, and soon, with a "hiss," a pitch-black spear emerged from the equipment's manufacturing outlet.

After getting Kevin's permission, Yang Yuanping hurried forward to touch it. It was a bit hot, but that didn't matter—he was too eager to hold the spear in his hands.

At first glance, the spear's inky-black appearance was unremarkable.

However, holding it, he could feel its heft and was overjoyed.

"Master, may I try it out outside?"

"Go ahead, don't disturb my work... Oh right, how many Source Crystals did this kid bring to commission the weapon?"

Kevin waved his hand dismissively, suddenly turning to ask Eileen.

"…a thousand?"

"It seems Lord mentioned that for custom weapons, I can take half of the fee for the blueprint design; for the remaining manufacturing costs, after covering the expenses, I can take thirty percent."

Three minutes to earn this many Source Crystals?

Kevin rubbed his hands together excitedly.

Looking at Yang Yuanping again, his gaze softened significantly.

It's a pity that this was the last of the Source Crystals the other party brought. Such an easy mark—if he comes again, he definitely must not let him slip away.

...

Outside the Equipment Department at the construction site, Yang Yuanping gripped the spear with both hands, the black spear dancing in his hands like a serpent.

A swing, a sweep.

The wind from the movement blew past.

Yang Yuanping swung with great satisfaction—it had been a long time since he felt this unbridled joy.

He had practiced spear skills since childhood, fusing them into the memory of every cell in his body. Yet, ordinary spears couldn't withstand the full force of his skill, let alone be used to face Demonized Beasts, even for daily practice.

But this unassuming black spear, crafted in less than three minutes...

Gave him a sense of daring to fight recklessly with Demonized Beasts.

This is the work of the master from Green Shadow Sanctuary, Yang Yuanping thought complicatedly.

Swoosh!

With the final thrust, the spear's tip halted steadily a foot above the ground, and Qi Force rolled out along the length of the spear. A small rock, being pointed at by the tip, suddenly exploded.

Shattered stone flew.

"Excellent spear! Excellent spear!"

Deals in the post-apocalypse were straightforward; there was no custom of staying for a meal after a transaction was done.

Yang Yuanping and his group, with a few boxes of purchased equipment, quickly left Green Shadow.

Captain Chen and his group felt they had gathered enough intelligence. After buying some standard equipment, they too left the Sanctuary, disappearing into the wilderness.

Halfway up the hill at the plaza,

Tang Yu leaned on the railing with both hands, picturing several dots in his mind that had just left the bounds of his Territory.

"What did they buy?"

Standing beside him, the plump Wang Zhou pondered for a moment, "Two Standard Longswords, three Standard Battle Sabers... Oh right, they also bought some fruit, like apples, bananas... and two oranges. It seems they also bought... er, a bottle of chili sauce."

"Chief, do those people pose a problem? Were they here to spy on our intelligence?"

Wang Zhou hadn't been aware before. His rambling was just a habit, but now he quickly caught on.

"Indeed, those people came to scout our intelligence..."

"Then why didn't you keep them here? Oh... I get it, you're waiting to act after they leave the Sanctuary, to minimize impact..."

Wang Zhou rambled on, instantly imagining a thousand words' worth of reasons, three thousand words of the process, and five thousand words of ensuing drama.

"No, they've gone far now."

"...Huh?"

Wang Zhou was suddenly at a loss for words.

Tang Yu, however, fell into contemplation.

He hadn't been sure about those military Awakeners at first.

Unlike Lin Wei's people, who had come to scout around, these few Awakeners were represented by yellow dots on his map, not red ones.

He speculated that this might be due to different objectives.

These people came to investigate intelligence, but their primary goal was just to understand the Green Shadow Sanctuary.

Those sent by Lin Wei, on the other hand, had seen Green Shadow as an enemy right from the start.

Had it not been for his suspicion and secret observation through the Crystal Ball, Tang Yu would not have been able to confirm that those individuals were sent by the military.

Some of the experiences of Captain Chen and his team in Green Shadow were indeed arranged by him.

Tang Yu had no intention of hiding his strength.

Indeed, the rapid development of Green Shadow Sanctuary, including rune equipment, was bound to attract others' covetousness.

The more so, the more he wanted to display some of his power.

Pretending to be a pig, the weaker one appears, the more it incites others' greed… In the apocalypse, a strong person holding a Source Crystal only evokes envy and respect from others, but an ordinary person with so many Source Crystals would undoubtedly provoke jealousy and greed.

Even if that ordinary person was just feigning weakness and ended up defeating the villain, it was meaningless.

On the contrary, showing a portion of one's strength from the beginning could avoid trouble.

If it really came to a confrontation, Lord Tang was not afraid of the opposition… The key point was that a confrontation had no benefits and would cost a great deal of Source Crystals—fighting Lin Wei had already caused him great pain.

Now? He might as well be a pacifist!

At least for now, it seemed there was no conflict between him and the one from Lindong Sanctuary.

…

Lindong Sanctuary.

The streets were still bustling with people, and with time, the construction of the entire Lindong had become more perfected.

Captain Chen and his team rushed back to Lindong without rest and immediately reported their findings.

A few minutes later.

In a small conference room, Lu Jianjun and several officers were listening to the report.

"… From this point of view, Green Shadow Sanctuary indeed fulfills a sanctuary's responsibilities." One of the staff officers said, "However, the influence of Green Shadow Sanctuary is spreading too quickly. Even the head of Creekwood Sanctuary personally went to purchase equipment?"

Creekwood Sanctuary, among the smaller sanctuaries in that area, also had relatively strong capabilities.

The head personally going to buy equipment showed Creekwood Sanctuary's importance.

However, they did not understand the ruler of Green Shadow Sanctuary, and the chief of staff was somewhat concerned.

At this moment, Captain Chen took out the weapons he had purchased.

An officer stepped forward, looked at them, and nodded to Lu Jianjun, "Indeed, these are the Demon-slaying Longswords that the mercenaries of Lindong are crazy about."

He then looked to Captain Chen, "Based on your estimate, how many weapons similar to the Demon-slaying Longsword does Green Shadow Sanctuary have, and what is their production rate?"

"There are probably a lot of this type of weapon."

"A lot? Dozens? Hundreds?"

"No, even more." Captain Chen thought for a moment, "There are a dozen or so Demon-slaying Longswords just on the shelves in the Equipment Supermarket, and that's just one type of weapon. The standard equipment of Green Shadow, just from what I've seen, includes close to ten varieties…"

"And moreover, Creekwood Sanctuary buying dozens of weapons from Green Shadow in one go and the staff at the Equipment Supermarket agreeing without hesitation suggests that their stock far exceeds this."

"As for production rate…"

Captain Chen recalled the scene he had witnessed in the Equipment Department.

That white-bearded old man had crafted an item in just three minutes that was in no way inferior to the Demon-slaying Longsword.

So, in an hour, could they produce twenty pieces of similar equipment?

And in a day?

The mere thought was shocking!
