"Plague, wait a moment……" Patrice ordered with austerity.

"I know comrades and friends are meant to be betrayed and exploited, but only when sufficient reasoning is established. If you turn against me now, then you are truly a massive moron!"

Plague remained quiet but retreated into the shadows. Her frame could seemingly and peculiarly blend into the darkness.

Patrice continued.

"You just told me, this item is merely a sample. Do you know what a sample is? If you don't, let me google it for you……a 'sample', a smidgen used to represent the quality goods. Perhaps it was drawn from the batch of goods for advertising purposes, or perhaps, it be just a prototype that was introduced before the rest. A sample used to indicate the standard of the load of true products!!!"

When Plague heard the terms 'quality goods' and 'load of true products', she immediately left the shadows. Employing an adorable but silly 'lolita' voice, she squealed pitifully.

"Sister Patrice, I know the error of my ways, don't ignore me okay?"

Instead, Patrice coldly replied.

"We should inform the boss at once. Don't look at me with that disgusting expression, this is my first warning to you. I'm not a silly ass but you are behaving like a dumb b*tch that is blinded by greed. Tell me, do we possess the capabilities to deal with a tier-5 legendary creature?"

Plague paused hesitantly before her voice turned raspy.

"Yes, with the suitable place and time."

"What about two?" Patrice questioned.

Plague bluntly answered.

"Nah."

Patrice then coldly continued.

"According to prior statistics, a dark-gold grade equipment may drop for every 4-5 tier-5 legendary creature."

Plague kept silent for a brief while before asking.

"What are you trying to say?"

Patrice answered without hesitation.

"Tell me, what is the common nature of the realm?"

Plague was then enlightened.

"The larger the risk, the greater the reward."

Patrice sternly continued.

"If we can accomplish this matter, then I'm guessing we'll acquire at least ten pieces; pieces equivalent to dark-gold grade equipments! Such a bountiful reward. Thus, haven't you considered the risk we'll have to face? This probably indicates an immense risk of facing tens of tier-5 legendary creature. Regardless how plentiful the rewards are, it'd be worthless to a dead man."

Plague contemplated deeply but still felt rather unresigned.

"But we acquired these crystals and item without facing any risk!"

Patrice snorted and replied.

"This the realm tempting us with a compensation for forsaking the mission regarding the 'Mosquito Amber'! Do you think that after encountering such information, would we care about whatever amber or mosquito? Right now, you should continue digging for information from the computer. We must definitely identify their transaction venue and time!"

Plague became speechless and started searching for more relevant information. Concurrently, Patrice strolled out and made an emergency call to Skull.

Moments later, Patrice returned with Skull's orders.

Plague was to forcibly retract her disseminated T-Virus and prevent Wester from suspecting anything, which could lead to that mysterious Mr 'A' terminating the transaction.

Secondly, Patrice must immediately head over to stall the delayed group of contestants that were similarly seeking out Wester. They absolutely couldn't allow for side issues to arise at this moment. She just needed to drag for two hours and reinforcements would arrive!

Meanwhile, Plague also managed to discover the meeting venue and time - Ushuaia Downtown Plaza basement two, Target Cafe. The deal was set to happen within 10 in the morning to 1 in the afternoon.

At present, there were still 6-10 hours left.

Upon viewing this information, Plague's lips curled into a relieved smirk. Still, she felt rather puzzled by this meeting; why wasn't it a fixed timing but a range?

Nevertheless, she quickly ignored her thoughts and concentrated her focus onto the 'goods' that Patrice mentioned earlier. The more she pondered, the more she realized how logical her reasoning was. Attempting to swallow such a grand amount of fortune would be virtually impossible.

The despicable realm wouldn't act so cordially. Moreover, Boss Skull was a rather impartial person. Since they made a big contribution to this matter, they would be able to receive a an invaluable portion; perhaps even more materials equivalent to dark-gold grade equipments!

Reflecting on that, Plague heated up with passion and immediately reported her findings.

Following that, Skull directly expressed that once he arrived, he would dispatch men to monitor whole vicinity of Ushuaia Downtown Plaza!

Meanwhile, Zi's secret cell at the outskirts of base 13 city.

The Metals Professor and company had actually discovered the secret cell.

Theoretically speaking, the cell should've been disguised meticulously, except, a pack of famished hyena like creatures had cleverly sniffed out the exposed entrance.

Prior to that, learning from the mistakes of Yuan Zhan and Tolui Helenite, the Metals Professor and company had started proceeding with great caution. Yet, the strange sight of a pack of hyena like creatures crowding around a boulder instantly aroused their attention.

Upon entering Zi's secret cell, they immediately noticed a puddle of vomit and blood. Evidently, it was this puddle that lured these hyenas here.

Proceeding from there, to their pleasant surprise, they discovered tens of 'Perfect Dinocrystals' in this secret cell. Furthermore, there were even a few outstanding dinosaur-hunting weapons that couldn't be brought out of this world.

Without a doubt, they had stumbled on an accidental fortune.

After carefully rummaging around, their spirits rose as Sable, following Zi's habits, unexpectedly found an Ipad she used in this world. From there, they managed to acquire the locations of three other secret cells.

This discovery was indeed a pleasant surprise to Glory Party.

To the Metals Professor, chasing her nemesis around like a dog and casually digging mouseholes along the way for profit, was truly a carefree and relaxed sensation…

In this instant, the Metals Professor also received a message from Prophet Finarsih - "Zi is currently in Ushuaia, but Zeus also warns that the members of Skull Party are displaying abnormal movements."

A side note, Glory Party's current transmission method was at the expense of Finarsih's mana. Moreover, their method fundamentally required a notebook, as messages were detailed in morse code, meaning it was unidirectional and required translating.

This communication method seemed rather backward, but it was still constantly employed by Zeus. This was because during the earlier phase of many contestants, many parties were already utilizing phones of the respective world for communication. There were rare cases of special abilities assisting foes in tapping on another's messages which led to the annihilation of a party.

"Zi can really flee, she actually fled a thousand kilometres away." The Metals Professor sneered but gritted her pearly white teeth simultaneously. Her dark green pupils flashes with ecstacy and venom.

"Perhaps she's digging another secret cell there. I'm really looking forward to what surprises Ushuaia will bring us."

When the others heard her words, they laughed in unison.

The Metals Professor then inquired.

"Old Fat, aren't you familiar with Base 13. It's four in the morning, are we able to reach there by ten?"

The illusory master, Old Fat, contemplated a little before answering.

"I'm afraid not. Some accident happened and it's hard to find a good transport in Base 13 now. I suggest first finding a normal vehicle and driving to checkpoint Luke, which is a 100 kilometres from here. We should be able to find a suitable high-speed vehicle for this terrain. I can estimate we'll reach our destination around noon."

The Metals Professor smirked.

"Very well. Once we arrive at Ushuaia, we'll immediately rush to her secret cell and catch the mouse in the mousehole. Oh I love to drown and roast the pesky mouse before seizing it. Sable, where's Zi's secret cell in Ushuaia?"

Sable checked Zi's Ipad before slowly announcing out.

"Ushuaia Downtown Plaza basement two, a cafe called Target."

******************************

"Actually, my plan is full of flaws." Sheyan rubbed his chin and lazily uttered.

"Nonetheless, I am 70 percent confident they will take the bait."

At present, the gang of four was idling in Ushuaia's tallest building, Teliga Telecommunications Tower.

The rooftop of Teliga Telecommunications Tower housed a revolving western restaurant. Sitting by the window with coffee, tea and professional service, one could overlook the entire city; especially, a panoramic view of the Downtown Plaza.

Besides, Teliga Telecommunications Tower was merely a straight 3 kilometres away from Ushuaia Downtown Plaza.

Presently, Zi, Reef and Brother Black were leaning lackadaisically against a soft high-back chair and enjoying coffee. It was rare for the contestant quartet to find such solace.

"Flaws?" Zi reflected on his words before speaking.

"Indeed. Our mystery man's arranged time of meeting with Wester is obviously a flaw - around ten in the morning to one in the afternoon. Furthermore, how can it be that Wester's computer offered such complete information. Apart from that, discovering Base 13's secret cell is too excessively coincidental, and why would the Ipad I carry with me be there and coincidentally contain other locations? Why not remember it by heart?"

"Therefore, we needed to sacrifice blood." Sheyan shrugged his shoulders and swapped to a confident tone.

"A whole load of blood."

"Only by inducing greed with such generous profits, can we mask all logic and sight. Only the drive of generous profits, can one make excuses for distinct flaws."

Sheyan sincerely declared.

"Give them a desire and it breeds expectancy. Naturally, the subconscious mind fears shattering this hope."
