117 Remember Not to Control Yourself (2)
“If the mercenary group wants to earn money from low-level crystal cores, unless they annihilate a small-scale beast tide, fighting those scattered first-tier exotic beasts is a losing deal.”
After hearing Iron Axe’s “tragic” story, Lin Ye’s heart did not waver.
Instead, he smiled at him.
“Don’t worry. Soon, you’ll be rich from hunting.”
Hearing Lin Ye’s words, Tie Fu had a suspicious look on his face.
Looking at the man’s expression, Lin Ye decided to give him some pointers on the account that he had helped him.
It was only a matter of time.
He pointed at the Mystic Butterfly on the shoulder of the iron axe and asked,
“What do you think of beasts?”
Upon hearing this question, Iron Axe was about to give Lin Ye a round of flattery when he heard Lin Ye say—
“Remember, objectively speaking, if you continue to brag, I won’t be bothered to say the rest.”
Hearing Lin Ye’s words, Iron Axe immediately shut his mouth.
After thinking for a while and looking at the Mystic Butterfly on his shoulder, Iron Axe said,
“Uh… very impressive.”
“If not for this moth just now, I might have died today.”
“Even if I didn’t die, I’d still have, um, lost a lot of face.”
Perhaps dissatisfied with Iron Axe’s use of the word “moth” to describe it, the Mystic Butterfly flew up from his shoulder and circled him twice.
Lin Ye looked at the Mystic Butterfly circling around in circles and felt that the probability of these burly men getting butterfly-type beasts was high.
Previously, there was Hong Zhijun. Now, there was an iron axe.
Could there be such a pattern?
Well, when he got back, he would ask Dr. Qin to pay attention to this.
After silently memorizing this “law”, Lin Ye pointed at the Mystic Butterfly and said,
“If a beast wants to grow, it needs crystal cores. You know that, right?”
Iron Axe nodded.
“Then do you think the consumption of crystal cores will increase as more and more people have beasts?”
“You have to know that the main source of energy for low-quality subdued beasts is Class 1 crystal cores.”
“As for those high-level crystal cores, the demand will also soar.”
Iron Axe didn’t know how to do business.
However, as long as the basic supply and demand relationship was not real confusing, one could understand it from life without going to school.
Iron Axe naturally listened to Lin Ye’s straightforward words.
After thinking about it for a while, he knew that this matter was very promising.
Thinking that Lin Ye had told him such “secret” information that could earn him a lot of money, Iron Axe looked at Lin Ye as if he was looking at a new parent.
Hall Master Lin was a good person!
Tsk, how could he flatter the curator but not do it obviously?
Just as Iron Axe was worrying about how to suck up to him, Xing Rong, who had finished vomiting in the corridor, walked out while holding onto the wall.
Seeing the body of the polluter lying on the ground, Xing Rong could not help but retch.
Well, he probably had nothing to throw up.
After vomiting twice, Xing Rong tilted his head and glanced at the corpse on the ground. Then, he looked at Iron Axe, who was waiting at the side. He gestured for Lin Ye to speak in private.
Lin Ye nodded and followed Xingrong to the other side of the corridor.
“Hall Master Lin, other than the eyeball in your hand, I came to look for you for another matter.”
“Oh? What else is there?”
Xing Rong pointed at the body of the polluter.
“And the polluter.”
“One day before…”
Xing Rong told him in detail about his good friend who had been transformed into a polluter and brought people to break into his house to ask about Lin Ye’s whereabouts.
Listening to Xingrong’s description, Lin Ye remembered the thin man who slipped away that night.
Not only did that person have the same characteristics as the person named “Shou Hou” in Xing Rong’s description, but the time and character also matched.
This person was also with a burly man called “Brother Biao”.
However, after confirming it, Lin Ye became puzzled.
Why were these polluters targeting him?
“Did they tell you why they’re looking for me?”
Xing Rong shook his head.
“Didn’t say.”
“But… it should be because of the beasts!”
“I remember when I said that you were the owner of the pet shop, they immediately thought that I had met you.”
Lin Ye nodded thoughtfully.
However, with the Great Sage around, he was not afraid of a sudden “coincidental encounter”.
As long as it wasn’t some sixth or seventh level existence, Great Sages could deal with it.
After all, a Great Sage at its peak was an existence that could smash a Nine-Headed Beast’s head with a club.
As long as he was not surrounded by the polluters, Lin Ye’s safety was not a problem.
Moreover, weren’t Blackie and Little Tanuki still around?
Now, he had a tank, damage output, and stunner.
And a healer was next.
Lin Ye’s lineup came to life.
Just as Lin Ye and Xing Rong were talking in the corridor on the third floor, a “lightning” rushed up from downstairs.
Iron Axe picked up the bloody axe in his hand as if he was facing a great enemy.
However, after seeing the person’s figure clearly, he immediately put down the axe with an embarrassed expression.
“Yang Wei?”
Yang Wei, who had just landed and had been focusing on the corpse on the ground, was immediately unhappy when he heard someone call him “Yang Wei.”
With an unfriendly expression, he narrowed his eyes and looked up at Iron Axe.
When he saw clearly who the burly man standing here was, Yang Wei could not help but purse his lips.
“I was wondering who it was. So it’s the second-in-command of our Tomahawk Mercenary Group?”
