Chapter 159: Battle Time (Part 1)

There were still numerous other influential factions, and all of them vying for more slots.

"Walter Yoder truly thinks I’m a fool. First, he suggests a price increase. When he sees I disagree, he actually wants to exchange for more slots. He’s subtly threatening me. If I don’t agree, he won’t sell the artifacts to the military!"

"That despicable person! Doesn’t he consider how the Yoder family attained its current status? In my opinion, the military shouldn’t give him a single cent. He should provide the artifacts.

After the disaster zone emerged, who has been protecting everyone? It’s the soldiers, those who rushed to the front lines, guarding the boundary between the disaster zone and the human world. Otherwise, considering the current state of the disaster zone..."

Mr. Lin suddenly cleared his throat.

Nicholas Sabate’s voice abruptly halted, and awkwardly smiling, "Anyway, Walter Yoder is despicable. I will never agree to give the Yoder family more slots. During previous disaster zone incidents, he never did this. Now suddenly demanding more slots, i wonder if Walter Yoder know something and

he become impatient as if there’s a new essence unity crystal mine in the new disaster zone?"

Mr. Lin took a sip of tea, placed the cup back on the table, and narrowed his shrewd eyes, "Or perhaps, their Yoder family’s reserve of essence unity crystal is running low, so Walter Yoder is feeling anxious!"

"I also think so. If there really is an essence unity crystal mine in the new disaster zone, how did Walter Yoder find out about it? The likelihood of this possibility is quite low," as Nicholas Sabate spoke, his thoughts became clearer.

"The most probable reason is that he’s desperately seeking for new essence unity crystal resources. The military allocated thirty slots to the Yoder family, but Walter Yoder finds it insufficient. With an equal number of people and resources, they have no advantage."

"This matter, I’m afraid you can’t decide it," Mr. Lin pointed out the main issue.

Nicholas Sabate’s expression hardened, "I know. That’s why I came to you, elder brother. If Walter Yoder doesn’t get a definite answer from me, he’ll definitely approach someone else or pressure the military."

"Alright, how many slots does he want?" Mr. Lin asked.

"Fifty," replied Nicholas Sabate, his expression turning serious.

Shaking his head, Mr. Lin remarked, "He intentionally mentions such a high number, but his real target should be thirty."

"I think so too," agreed Nicholas Sabate.

Mr. Lin tapping lightly on the armrest, and spoke after a moment, "Walter Yoder has been planning this move for a long time. He won’t stop until he achieves his goal."

"Why do you say that, elder brother?" inquired Nicholas Sabate.

"Can’t the military postpone purchasing this batch of artifacts?" Mr. Li countered.

"They can’t. Since last year, the military has bought three batches of artifacts from the Yoder family. The quantities have been decreasing each time. Yoder family’s reasoning is that some resources are becoming scarce, and they can’t produce more artifacts to sell to the military," explained Nicholas Sabate.

"That’s the problem. In reality, the output from those artifact refinig factories of the Yoder family hasn’t fluctuated much, it’s neither increasing nor decreasing," said Mr. Lin who frequently send people to gathered intelligence about his opponent.

Cursing under his breath, Nicholas Sabate asked, "Elder brother, do you have a solution?"

Mr. Lin pondered and fell silent.

At that moment, Kenny Lin, who had been quiet, contributed three words, "Heavenly Path University."

Before Nicholas Sabate could fully comprehend, Mr. Lin feeling aligned with his younger brother’s suggestion, and instantly understood.

"Nicholas, there’s a way now, thanks to Kenny," Mr. Lin said, his eyes were beaming with a kind, and fatherly expression towards his youngest brother.

But it doesn’t matter much.

When Kenny Lin was born, Mr. Lin was nearly forty years old.

At that time, their father was mostly away, so it was him and a few other brothers and sisters who raised him.

It wouldn’t be an overstatement to say that he and Kenny Lin were like father and son.

"Thank you, brother-in-law," Nicholas Sabate responded graciously.

Despite Kenny Lin being younger than him, he didn’t display any discomfort.

His warm demeanor pressed agaist Kenny Lin coldness.

Kenny Lin understood they called him back for this matter and left right after speaking.

This kind of situation had occurred many times over the years.

He knew his elder brother wanted him to get more involved, to engage with the family and various factions’ matters.

Sometimes, they also deliberately tricked him into coming over.

In fact, he could easily see through their intentions, and he understood they were doing it for his own good, so he cooperating silently.

After Nicholas Sabate returned, he reported the matter to his superiors, who supported his decision.

For so many years, the Yoder family had demanded various benefits from the military with a strong attitude.

It was time to strike back.

They shouldn’t think the military was powerless against them.

Outside the training room, Amalia was unaware of what was happening.

After staying for a day, she regained her lost cultivation, and recovering it to Level 5 intermediate stage at an extremely fast speed.

She had though it would take at least two days to reach this level again, and she would recover his cultivation after slowly accumulating it.

However, it happened even faster than she imagined.

Amalia didn’t know that it was because she absorbed spiritual energy faster than the average person and also because the piece of meat that was given to her by the black-clothed Kenny Lin.

The spiritual energy in the training room, which could usually last a day, was absorbed by her in just half a day.

It took another day for her cultivation level to fully restored to the peak Level 5 intermediate stage, and it was just a step away from breaking through.

At that moment, the communicator on her wrist buzzed.

It was the set time, and there were still six hours until the life-and-death battle with Yannis Yoder.
