Bai Ye felt a sense of fulfilled desire.
Finally, it was a real lightsaber, no longer a flashlight.
Although Bai Ye didn't know when he would need to use this thing, after all, flying swords were more practical, but romance and dreams still had value.
Unless...
Someone offers a high price?
Thinking this, Bai Ye placed the Skywalker into his inventory.
Allen and the others had already left. Bai Ye leaned against the window, gazing at the City of Ruins. So far, his departure from the sect had been smooth.
However, Bai Ye's goal was the wish mission, which he hadn't obtained yet. The hidden missions still had follow-ups.
But this couldn't be rushed. Bai Ye had completed the first step. The second step would be waiting for Allen and Rhine Company's negotiations. Barring any surprises, based on Bai Ye's memories from his previous life, the negotiations would surely break down, and then the androids would rebel.
At that time, Bai Ye could go and complete the next hidden mission.
As for now, Bai Ye could only wait.
Yes, wait!
Bai Ye thought the word was very fitting. He needed to wait for the hidden mission and also wait for Imy's reply.
Hidden Dragon Society, Evil Spirit Gang, Flower Street.
The Evil Spirit Gang had already been contacted. Flower Street was uncertain. Hua Zhixiao was currently just a woman surviving by her body. Although Bai Ye had helped Hua Zhixiao, whether she could stand up like in his previous life depended on Hua Zhixiao herself.
To put it simply, Bai Ye had only cast some bait. He wasn't sure if this bait would catch any fish.
But directions had been established for both major factions. As for the remaining Hidden Dragon Society...
Alright, to be honest, Bai Ye disliked the Hidden Dragon Society. Those guys had chased and killed him when he was weak in his previous life. Although he had gotten revenge later when he became powerful, this debt was not yet settled.
But grudges like this only disappear with death. Since he was getting another chance, he naturally had to make them die again for the debt to be truly settled.
Therefore, Bai Ye hadn't initially included the Hidden Dragon Society in his plans.
Bai Ye's plan was to use the Evil Spirit Gang to counter the Hidden Dragon Society and then use the confrontation between the two factions to accelerate the progress of the World Battlefield.
But with Imy appearing at his doorstep now, Bai Ye thought it might be a good idea to place someone in the Hidden Dragon Society as well.
As long as Imy climbed high enough and gained enough importance within the Hidden Dragon Society, she could be used for many things then.
The only question was, could Imy be controlled?
The Evil Spirit Gang was handled through the entanglement of interests.
As for Hua Zhixiao, she was too weak right now. She hadn't even shown any traits or potential that Bai Ye could look forward to. Therefore, Bai Ye's choice was to let her fend for herself. If Hua Zhixiao could stand up, that was her business. If not, then so be it.
But Imy couldn't be treated like Hua Zhixiao. This guy was already a master. Moreover, Hua Zhixiao was establishing Flower Street, something Bai Ye couldn't help much with. Imy, on the other hand, was going undercover in the Hidden Dragon Society, which was different from Hua Zhixiao.
However, Bai Ye felt that making Imy obedient wouldn't be too difficult.
As long as he was strong enough.
Bai Ye didn't know if Imy had a tendency to admire strength, but Bai Ye believed that as long as he continuously showed Imy his strength, she would likely behave.
Because if Imy wanted to confront the God-followers, Bai Ye would be Imy's biggest asset.
"Speaking of which, what exactly are these God-followers?"
Bai Ye muttered to himself, thinking about it.
Bai Ye found this matter interesting. Leaving the World Battlefield was the pursuit of everyone, and Bai Ye was no exception. But what about the truth of the World Battlefield?
This was also something everyone wanted to pursue. However, relatively speaking, compared to being able to leave here, the truth was less important.
But if Imy's speculation was correct, and the truth of the World Battlefield was related to leaving the World Battlefield, then it became very important.
However, there was nothing Bai Ye could do for now. He could only wait.
But what Bai Ye didn't expect was that instead of hearing news about Allen and Rhine Company's negotiations, or Imy finding him, he was contacted by Gao Ming first.
"Hello?"
"Hi, Bai Ye." As Bai Ye picked up the den den mushi, Gao Ming's voice sounded. "How have you been lately?"
"Not good!"
Bai Ye pouted. He had been loitering in the City of Ruins for two days, and Allen hadn't contacted him, nor had Imy. This naturally made Bai Ye unhappy.
"But..." Bai Ye continued, "Judging by your tone, you seem to be doing well."
"If I'm doing well, isn't it thanks to you!" Gao Ming laughed. "Seriously, aren't you considering joining the Evil Spirit Gang?"
Bai Ye replied, "Not interested."
"Okay." Gao Ming said regretfully, "Then our cooperation."
Bai Ye said, "Look, that's more like it. Let's talk cooperation, why talk about joining the Evil Spirit Gang? Do you think I don't know what your boss Harvey is thinking? If I really joined the Evil Spirit Gang, would you still so readily give me benefits? As a member of the Evil Spirit Gang, isn't it natural to serve the Evil Spirit Gang?"
Gao Ming chuckled, not bothering to argue. In fact, trying to recruit Bai Ye did have that intention behind it.
Bai Ye said, "I think the map from the Men in Black should be enough for you guys to get by. Although they are all entry-level future technology weapons, equipping the entire Evil Spirit Gang with black-quality weapons would greatly improve your overall strength. You shouldn't have been able to achieve that in such a short time, right?"
Gao Ming replied, "We naturally won't give up on that place. We want to be the first to eat the crab, but I think it's even better to eat the crab clean."
Bai Ye asked, "Then why are you looking for me?"
Gao Ming sighed, "Although overall strength is necessary, there's still a considerable gap between our cadre-level strength and the Hidden Dragon Society. The Hidden Dragon Society's fighting force is quite formidable."
"Oh?" Bai Ye queried, "You're not satisfied with the low-end battles and want to find some experts to fight the high-end matches?"
Gao Ming smiled, "You can understand it that way. After all, you need experts to anchor the team."
Bai Ye asked, "Do you want a red-quality lightsaber?"
A man's romance...
As long as the offer was sincere, it wasn't impossible to sell.
Gao Ming immediately replied, "Of course!"
Bai Ye said, "What are you planning to exchange for it? By the way, you'll have to send someone to pick it up yourself."
"Ah?" Gao Ming exclaimed, "You have it?"
Bai Ye asked, "What's wrong?"
Gao Ming said tactfully, "Although it's a good item, exchanging one red-quality item for another red-quality item doesn't make much sense."
Bai Ye asked, "Don't you have anything you don't need?"
Gao Ming replied, "Probably, but this isn't my responsibility. I can go and ask for you, but my suggestion is that the previous cooperation model was quite good."
Bai Ye said, "You want information about the forbidden zone, right?"
Gao Ming honestly admitted, "Yes."
