I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 1322 - 1317: An Excellent Candidate 2

Chapter 1322: Chapter 1317: An Excellent Candidate 2

"Do you know about the Solo Gold Association?" Ye Changgong asked Tang Ye.

Tang Ye shook his head. He remembered that one of his "split personas" had heard of it somewhere, but to him, the Zombie King, it was far too insignificant. Much like an ant crawling by his foot—only a fool would bother to remember.

The only groups with "Association" in their name that he was aware of were the Peace Party, the Hidden Dragon Association, and some ragtag Yesteryear Association. They were all relics of the past. And the Hidden Dragon Association’s demise was but a fleeting thought for him. Just by organizing a zombie horde of over tens of millions, not only the Hidden Dragon Association but even the entire Cloud Gorge Base would be steamrolled without a second thought!

Fortunately, Su Sigui quickly answered, "They are currently the largest slave trading organization on the Chinese Continent."

Crammed with people from all over the world who had come to the Chinese Continent seeking a stable living environment and the local Chinese, totaling seven hundred million—though this number may not sound very significant, it’s not only humans on the Chinese Continent. There are also zombies. Many areas are overran by zombies. Places of survival are limited to bases and Sanctuary Cities, and with so many people, it has led to the overcrowded and chaotic environment of all Sanctuary Cities, including Cloud Gorge Base, thus giving rise to an industry like slave trading.

Within this industry, the Solo Gold Association was the finest and also the largest slave trading organization for the entire human race!

This organization classifies slaves into three grades: A, B, and C. Grade A is the highest quality, and Grade C is the lowest. Even so, Grade C slaves have more value than those from other organizations, usually consisting of good-looking women with a touch of charm or strong-bodied men. These slaves are ordinary people, bought to be used as labor, which is an option for many average people, significantly since the prices are much more affordable compared to other organizations.

Grade B slaves include extraordinarily beautiful women and talented individuals who have achieved much in various fields. However, this grade mostly comprises people who held special status before the Apocalypse, like the children of some well-known tycoon or the tycoon themself, or even former officials. Acquiring such a slave provides buyers with an intoxicating sense of conquest.

As for Grade A slaves, if not a beauty that could singlehandedly support a live streaming platform, then they are high-level new humans who can serve as bodyguards. However, these slaves are rare. As soon as they become available, they are quickly bought, and even for an organization the size of the Solo Gold Association, it’s tough to keep Grade A slaves in stock. Usually, they need to be reserved in advance.

Su Sigui gave a rough explanation of the Solo Gold Association, but no sooner had he finished speaking than Ye Changgong laughed and said, "The Solo Gold Association’s slaves are not limited to three grades. Above Grade A, there is also an S Grade!"

"Ah?" Su Sigui was taken aback. The Solo Gold Association’s Grade A slaves had once sold three Level 7 new humans—could S Grade be selling Level 8 new humans? If that were the case, what could be going through the minds of those Level 8 new humans who ended up as slaves?

Seeing Su Sigui’s confusion, Ye Changgong said with a smile, "S Grade doesn’t sell bodyguards, only one thing—beauty! Little Su, think about the Order Defenders you’ve come across these past few months. Aren’t each of them comparable to rare treasures?"

"The S Grade slaves of the Solo Gold Association must possess extremely outstanding looks; such slaves, in ancient times, would be deemed disasters. Tsk tsk, however, since its inception, the Solo Gold Association has only found three, and these three slaves have never been seen sold, nor have they appeared in any Level 8 new human’s home. It seems these three S Grade slaves have been sent somewhere..."

"Sent to that research facility?" Tang Ye wondered aloud.

"I can’t be certain of that, nor do I know all the secrets within the Solo Gold Association. I’m only guessing there’s a connection with some entity in the council, but whether there is one still needs to be confirmed," Ye Changgong looked mysteriously at Tang Ye, as if he could see into his inner thoughts.

"This old man!" Tang Ye was inwardly startled, vigilantly regarding Ye Changgong. Those eyes that seemed to have seen everything made the old man appear even cunning than a thousand-year-old fox demon from mythology!

"If you want to locate that research facility, the Solo Gold Association should be an entrance, and good-looking young men and women your ticket, but you’ll have to ensure they catch their eye. If that research facility is crucial to you, the cost of confirming this shouldn’t be too high, though finding such individuals will be tough."

"If Su Sigui weren’t the mayor of the City of Bright Moon, her looks would easily get you an S Grade ticket, but unfortunately, she is the mayor. People in the Solo Gold Association have discerning eyes—given her status, no one would dare touch her. So, you’ll need to find someone else. It all depends on your luck."

Ye Changgong’s words left the atmosphere quiet for a moment. Su Sigui glanced at him, then at Li Henian, and finally set her gaze back on Ye Changgong before seriously saying, "Someone inside the council knows about the research facility, even its location."

"Huh? Who?" Ye Changgong was somewhat puzzled.

Su Sigui continued to explain what she had heard about the research facilities from those in Cloud Gorge Base right before she passed out. She wasn’t going to forget that a minute before losing consciousness, those Level 8 new humans were insisting on sending her to the research facility to become what they called an "original body." Most of those people had since been killed by the Royal Court’s forces, but it seemed two had turned into Xu Haishui’s experimental mice. Their mouths might reveal the location of the facility.

Don’t forget, the Level 8 powerhouses currently with Li Henian were no ordinary individuals. With such powerful manpower, forcefully breaking into the research facility wouldn’t be so difficult.

The next second, Tang Ye spoke up, "No need. Making such a big fuss is not what I want. As for the ’ticket,’ heh heh..."

With that, Tang Ye’s face revealed a sinister smile, as if he was utterly confident about everything.

At this, both Su Sigui and Ye Changgong were stunned, unaware of what good method Tang Ye had thought of.

What Su Sigui and Ye Changgong didn’t realize was that there was an ideal candidate already in Tang Ye’s mind!

Wasn’t Gong Xiao’s very existence made for such missions? She truly was perfect for it!
