I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1677 The Doors Are Locked!

Chapter 1677  The Doors Are Locked!

Lanster was someone who always followed his promises, made lots of deals over years with this world's various merchant families, not just this one. According to the lady, he was one of the most trusted customers they ever dealt with.

[Thanks, I'll accept the offer, but… How will I own it? How can I get there?] Hye once read the good words about Lanster and he decided to accept such an offer.

He'd be crazy to even let such a chance slip by. He knew any dealing with anyone in the universe would be secured and guaranteed by the system. There shouldn't be any problem in his words, but there were little issues that troubled Hye.

For example, Lanster could pick any rocky planet and say this was a crystal mine. At the same time, even if his words were true, Hye wasn't that near to begin with from the outer zone of the universe.

He wanted Lanster to provide him with a secure way to head there, not to mention he also wanted to bring other people around.

[I have a system authorised ownership licence of these mines, stating clearly each mine's location, the estimated number of crystals by the last check a few months ago…]

As Hye asked, Lanster ran him down with long and very detailed answers. Hye was satisfied with all this, feeling that Lanster could be a nice friend.

[Let's add each other as friends] as Lanster thoroughly explained everything, even offering to send a detailed map of portals he could board to reach there, Hye asked instantly to add him as a friend.

Lanster agreed at once. [So, are we going to make the deal?] he asked in the interface, not using the direct message feature between friends, powered up by the system.

[Sure, let's do it] Hye paused, [In addition to that, I want the detailed map, alongside all the forces you can provide for me]

[Forces?]

[I'm willing to pay ten times the price you asked for in return for this] Hye had a plan in his mind. But he had to safeguard against many things. For example, he had to first mine these crystals and provide them to his forces. Then his forces would grow stronger.

Yet if his enemies moved fast, didn't care about the dangerous situation over there, or if the brutal battles at the outer battlefield expanded and reached his lands, then he had to join the fight.

He planned to drag the invincible protective shield to cover up that zone. He made up his mind, he would start colonising that area as the first base ever for his kingdom.

He was worried of the interval period he'd take to mine crystals, arm up his forces, and defend the entire region. So if possible, he was willing to hire any forces to support his stand there.

[I can't sell you anything, sorry…] After long minutes of thinking about this offer, Lanster rejected it.

[Then how about lending them to me?] Hye's main purpose was to purchase these forces. If not, he'd better hire more forces to his side, just for a certain period of time to cover up his needs.

[Oh, for how long? And what about the losses?] Lanster seemed more open to speaking about hiring his forces instead of selling them.

[One year is long enough] Hye thought for a moment, [As for the losses, I can pay one hundred bones for each loss on your side]

[Agreed!] Lanster knew this was a grand chance, one that he'd be a fool to turn it down. He instantly formulated the contracts, sent them to Hye to sign.

Hye signed the contracts, and his hopes were elevated for the remaining messages he got. But unlike his hopes, he got only crystal offers from the rest of the messages.

"It's not that bad, after all I can't get any crystals from here for a long time…" he muttered to himself, acting a bit realistic and accepting such offers.

He didn't let any down, accepted all. He spent billions of his bones in these exchanges. But the beauty about this was that all these deals were supported by the system.

Once he added everyone as his friends, he could send and receive things from them. He sent the bones in exchange for tons of crystals. And now he was feeling more reassured about forming a good sizable force from his kingdom's armies.

"It's better to wait to see how long this heart thing will take before throwing away more crystals there," as he got his stocks of crystals multiplied by two digits, he thought about throwing more crystals as seeds into that Crystal Heart.

But he didn't do it, and wanted to first see how long this thing would take to produce fruits.

He spent long hours finalising his deals, before he stretched out his arms and intended to leave this place.

"It's… Locked!!" just as he was about to go out, he found out that the doors were tightly shut, sealed to not allow him to go out, "what's going on here?"

He was puzzled, and his vigilance rose up to an alarming level. He thought about using force to break this door, thought about using part of the gained crystals if needed to break this door and fight any forces coming to stop him from leaving.

But when he thought about everything, he did so far to curry this world's higher powers favour, he refrained from doing so. He didn't want to ruin everything he did. And so, he opened his interface, sent a message to the same lady he spoke lastly with, asking her about what was going on.

[Oh, I'm sorry about that. But let me check things for you and return later with a clear and satisfying answer] the lady seemed more respectful than the ones who locked this door on him.

Hye knew if they meant ill, and that was something he couldn't pinpoint a reason for, then they'd acknowledge what they did and refuse to open the doors for him.
