Chapter 1176: Chapter 1176 Resource War_1

After having bathed and changed, Peter Brown sat on a chair in the courtyard, observing the servants who respectfully stood around, attending to him. His mood was quite pleasant as he listened to Rich White reporting on the situation of the mansion.

"Young master, the mansion’s expenditures are quite large. The money we currently have from Master isn’t quite enough."

Peter was aware that Harry White had quite a bit of income, and yet it seemed it still wasn’t enough for the family’s expenses.

"How much can our eastern courtyard get?"

"The eastern courtyard represents a quarter of Master’s income. You also took quite a lot with you when you left last time."

Peter understood in his heart that William Stone was also someone who spent a lot, probably having emptied the family’s coffers.

"The Auction House that the family set up has never had any good treasures for sale. It’s not doing well nowadays. Young master, how do you think we should handle it?"

Peter couldn’t help but give a wry smile. William Stone had tried to do business like others, putting money into it without managing it thereafter, resulting in the money being spent without any successful business being done.

"Let’s not worry about it for now. Tell me what else needs to be done."

Since he was impersonating someone else, Peter also wanted to live comfortably, so he started inquiring.

Rich White hesitated before speaking, "Young master, the most important thing that you might need to deal with now is the Resource Battle."

The Resource Battle?

When Peter searched through William Stone’s consciousness, he was startled. Due to limited resources, the descendants of major families would engage in battles for resources, wagering some of their family assets in martial contests. If one lost, they would have to give up a certain amount of resources. This was a major event within the Monster Expelling Order.

"Are there any new rules for this battle for resources?"

"Young master, more people from the Sect are participating this time, and the Sect’s rule is to enter the Monster Beast Mountain."

Peter was then taken aback, "Entering the Monster Beast Mountain range?"

Rich White nodded emphatically, "That has already been decided by the Sect. Aside from our Sect, the Great Prosperity Sect and the Hong Water Gate have also sent disciples to enter."

"How many disciples from our Sect are entering?"

"This time, our Sect is entering fifty thousand disciples. The other two Sects are also sending fifty thousand each, making a total of one hundred and fifty thousand people entering, all below the Golden Immortal Layer. It is said that this time, family rankings do not matter, and anyone who has reached the Immortal Realm must enter, relying on their own fate."

Damn it!

Peter had thought that once he returned to the Immortal Sect, there would be nothing to worry about, but now this curveball was thrown at him. Just thinking of so many people entering the Monster Beast Mountain range made his scalp tingle.

As they were talking, Benjamin Woods and Huxley Brown both arrived at the same time.

After the two sat down, Benjamin Woods spoke eagerly, "William, have you heard about the Resource Battle?"

"I just heard about it, and I am not too clear on the details. What exactly is going on?"

Huxley Brown sighed, "In the past, the Resource Battles were participated in only by the descendants of the major families, and the prize money was through wagers; the losing party would give their staked resources to the winning side, and there was no risk of life. But this time it’s completely different. It is said that the Three Sects have agreed together that the boundary will be set within five million miles of the Monster Beast Mountain range. As you know, flight is not possible within the Monster Beast Mountain range; everyone must travel on the ground. Considering such a vast distance and the time being one year, I really don’t know how many people will be able to come back alive."

Benjamin Woods said, "I heard that everywhere is buying items to save their lives. The prices of various items are going up by the day."

"What’s the stance of your family?" Peter inquired.

"What else can our attitude be? The Immortal Sect has made its decision—we must enter. Any family that does not participate will have their supply of resources cut off for the next five hundred years. For the sake of resources, everyone has no choice but to go all out."

"What is the method of entry, and can we advance and retreat together when the time comes?"

Benjamin gave a bitter smile, "I originally had the same thought, but this time the other two Sects proposed to send people in randomly."

"Randomly?"

"Yes, people will be sent in randomly using formation disks at various locations on the outskirts. It’s completely random, and it’s unpredictable where one might end up being sent. If you’re unlucky, you might be dropped right next to powerful Demon Beasts!"

What a bizarre twist!

Now, Peter was also shaking his head; if this was the case, his preparations were probably still inadequate.

"Everyone, try to buy as many life-saving items as possible!"

Benjamin continued, "This time, there are also resource requirements for the major families. Each family must provide no less than a million fairy coins worth of resources, which will be held collectively by the Sect. Those who return will be awarded resources according to their contribution points."

"How are points earned?" Peter asked. It felt like things would be very chaotic if this was the case.

"The first is by killing the opposing Sect’s personnel; one kill earns one point, and the Identity Card automatically records it. The second way is to trade treasures found using the genius of the land. There will be professional appraisers for evaluation; the third is by seizing the opponent’s Identity Card and calculating points based on the achievements recorded there."

"Murder is actually permitted this time?"

"Correct, not only can you kill Demon Beasts, but you can also kill people. The goal is simple: snatch the opponent’s Identity Card and increase your own score."

By now, Peter had a good understanding of the overall situation.

"William, that mountain range is so vast that not even a bubble would be raised by the entrance of one hundred and fifty thousand people. We don’t even know if we will be able to come back alive," Benjamin lamented.

"Let’s design some means of contact with a few people; that way, we might be able to unite if possible," Peter suggested, realizing that was all he could do at this point.

Benjamin shared, "I heard that there are many strong person’s burial sites within the Monster Beast Mountain range, and they contain numerous treasures. If it weren’t for the restriction on cultivation levels that prevents high-level masters from entering, many more powerful individuals might have already ventured in."

Considering this carefully, Peter realized just how dangerous it was inside and how difficult it would be to obtain benefits.

After chatting casually for a while longer, the two left.

Peter sat there, beginning to ponder his own affairs.

He should have enough Elixirs to upgrade by one level, and the gap between him and Golden Core Practitioners would be significantly widened, which was a good thing. However, his entry into the mountain range meant he would be there for a year, and in that year, he’d inevitably face many battles. Now, it seemed that the items he had for self-protection and for offense were insufficient, and he must make quick investments in this endeavor.

Having checked his immortal coins, Peter was almost ready, but the more he could supplement, the better. It seemed he had to start buying in earnest.

He must find the fastest way to upgrade his cultivation.
