“Don’t worry about it, they will definitely resolve the raw material issue themselves, it’s just a form of energy after all. Crimson Crystals can serve as an energy source, and so can their Divine Thought.” Qin Muye deduced simply, and there were no problems.
“It’s not just them, even the three Great Demons of Greed, Hatred, and Delusion in the Spirit Realm are like that, acting before thinking at times, sometimes lucid and sometimes chaotic,” Laughing Face said.
“It might be worth a try to undermine them, since if they’re unkind, don’t blame me for being unjust,” Qin Muye spoke as he began rummaging through chests and cabinets.
“Mm, I got it, leave this matter to me and Dark Hand,” Qin Muye said outright.
“Pull it into the warehouse since it’s already here, get ready and maybe contact the Exotic Realm Demon Worms to see if they want any weapons,” Qin Muye pondered and then spoke.
...
“Yes, master, I’ll get to it right away,” Laughing Face said, then left.
“Yes master, Wang Cheng not only had me steal them out but also thought about making me an internal agent, obtaining the designs and smelting methods of the Crimson Series weapons,” Laughing Face was quite speechless about Wang Cheng’s actions.
“So… that Grand Secretary of the Great Nether Dynasty thinks that we have a Secret Technique that can yield ten thousand stones of food per acre and grow food seven times a year, along with a Dharma Door that enhances the production of copper and iron, what kind of nonsense is all this?”
“I understand, master, I will definitely explain this matter,” Laughing Face instantly got Qin Muye’s hint.
“My advancement task… it’s a bit difficult,” Qin Muye looked at his advancement task, which he had already triggered before, but it required a 6th-tier domain, and his was still 5th-tier, so he hadn’t been concerned about it.
“Be careful, dealing with this swarm of insects is probably not going to be easy,” Qin Muye said.
“Speaking of which, has that smart AI from Beyond Heaven also reached out to you?” Qin Muye was a bit surprised.
“This weapon is version 0.21 of the Crimson Series weapons, if they press you for it later, just hand it to them, it’s guaranteed to be a big surprise.”
“But master, they don’t have any Crimson Crystals, so they can’t manufacture it,” Laughing Face said.
“Master… what about the ten million silver? Although they let me return, they didn’t provide resources, they just converted it into silver.”
“Don’t worry master, I’m sure of it, the Exotic Realm Demon Worms have reached out to me before, I just didn’t agree, this time it could be useful,” Laughing Face spoke.
[Task Reward: Talent Ascension ×1, self-selected Divine Lord Talent ×1, self-selected Professional Talent ×1, self-selected Lord Talent ×1]

The Great Nether Dynasty, he had blacklisted them, trading? That’s not a trade, that’s outright robbery.
Just wait until the Exotic Realm Demon Worms give the Great Nether Dynasty a couple of hard hits, they’ll surely realize what they’ve lost.
They never treated him like a person, so why should Qin Muye show any kindness?
Regarding this matter, he didn’t really have any thoughts as after all, one shouldn’t judge forces by appearances or species, but rather by interests.
And this version of the Crimson Series is an energy weapon, which means even if they manufactured it, they would still need Divine Thought as an energy source, and the consumption would be substantial.
And Laughing Face was naturally the best candidate for the task.
After all, if they are disgusting to him, he has to be just as disgusting in return, and make some money while he’s at it.
What’s more important is its low universality, not adapting the weapons to people, but making people adapt to the weapons.
Soon, he took out a large roll of outdated drafts.
Trading itself should be mutual, and Qin Muye was very sincere, wanting to clear old inventory before using the new weapon models, but the other side exchanged a pile of useless silver for weapons, showing no spirit of the contract.
Spirit Monsters don’t just slack off; instead, each one diligently works for the development of its domain.
The cost is quite high though, as each creation subtly and permanently consumes the creator’s Divine Thought, and it’s the kind that can’t be recovered.
But the problem is that the forces in this world are insufficient. If broken down in detail, including him, there are only five forces, while the territory advancement mission requires 10 forces of the fifth rank.
That meant, since the Great Nether Dynasty had made the first move, there was no need for them to adhere to it any longer.
The other tasks were not major issues, whether it was obtaining 10 heroes of the sixth rank or achieving an SSS rank instance evaluation, even amassing a million ordinary soldiers was a minor issue. The real challenge lay in meeting the various conditions to advance the territory to the sixth rank.
Although Qin Muye behaved unscrupulously, in trade, he only profited as he should and at most, would support an opposing force to pick fights and incite wars, never diluting his goods with impurities.
Qin Muye casually threw the rejected manuscript to Xiaomian, who accepted it with a smile, clearly understanding Qin Muye’s intent.
When Qin Muye heard this, the corner of his eye twitched; with this group of people, even if he gave them the design, could they understand it?

Having heard Xiaomian’s report, Qin Muye had a peculiar expression. This time, the natives were clearly not as intelligent as the last time, possibly due to the Reclassification Certificate, as they did not receive the corresponding information of the Divine Lord Talent.
Qin Muye didn’t mind, being busy was good as it meant that the development of his territory had never ceased.
Qin Muye also understood that all sides were making moves to win him over.
Now, as the leader of a force, Qin Muye couldn’t solely rely on personal likes and dislikes; he had hundreds of thousands of Spirit Monsters following him.
Calling it a chicken rib was already elevating this version of the military series too much.
The resources in his territory depended on resource buildings, and the high output was also caused by various unscientific augmentations.
He wasn’t the typical protagonist who worries about enlightenment in cultivation; he was petty, but if the other party provided him with sufficient value and benefits, he would readily give face to them.
Feeding a bunch of ambitious individuals in a world he didn’t know, Qin Muye was not so nobly inclined.
Nowadays, the number of Demon Statue Level Mechas was steadily increasing. A hundred units were being produced every day; although the number was small, they added up.
Otherwise, why would he engage simply to vent his anger? Unpleasant as it may sound, as long as the benefits were sufficient, even if someone pointed at Qin Muye’s nose and cursed, he could still smile.
If it were mithril, it would have been different, but this material was just ordinary silver. It had its uses, but not many.
That meant they must fight for it.
Because Qin Muye didn’t leave his territory, and the territory had various protections, these forces couldn’t penetrate, so if they wanted contact, they could only reach some of the spies and staff who went out.
Having benefits was naturally fine, but if there were no benefits yet they still dared to overstep, they shouldn’t blame Qin Muye for being ruthless.
With their weaponry, one shot could kill beyond levels, not a dream.
Furthermore, Qin Muye had formed an alliance with the Great Nether Dynasty, but their first business deal duped him, and they still wanted to infiltrate his forces; this behavior was particularly egregious, and it wasn’t something Qin Muye should simply overlook just because they were humans.
Furthermore, he wasn’t a human of this world; this world wasn’t his world either, just as with the Magic Continent, its destruction had nothing to do with him.
This version of the Crimson System weaponry was still usable but had a short effective duration and caused high-intensity pollution.
This resulted in it having a ceiling not too high and a floor not too low, significant consumption yet not great in practicality.
This disgusted Xiaomian; in the Great Nether Dynasty, this silver might be currency and precious metal, but in Qin Muye’s territory, it was just a material, and even then, a material not worth its cost.
Really giving face where face was not desired, this weaponry could not only be sold to Demon Worms of exotic realms but also to Spirit Realm Demons. The demons might not need it, but followers of their sects could use it.
Later, the trade of the weaponry would definitely continue, but the initiative would belong to them.
The Professional Talent column rewards had disappeared, replaced with Divine Lord Talent, which Qin Muye didn’t understand. This was the difference between the sixth and fifth ranks; to obtain Divine Talent, one had to be at the sixth rank.
As for what it specifically was, Qin Muye wasn’t too sure. Other sixth-rank Lords were keeping it hidden, seemingly another great weapon-like Talent.
