Doomsday Roulette

"What's wrong, not acceptable?" Wei Cu looked at the people in front of him with a cold smile, feeling immensely pleased inside.

In the end, the Star-Eye Clan was still the Star-Eye Clan. Although they could turn their backs mercilessly in the face of profit, they were still allies when interests were not involved.

Last time, they dug a pit for the Star-Eye Clan so that they could replace the Radiant Tang Clan in the city defense team, and the Star-Eye Clan foolishly complied. In total, over a thousand of their best warriors were sent in.

Although this period was relatively peaceful, making it unsuitable to use the members of the Star-Eye Clan in the city defense team as cannon fodder, under the ever-watchful "care" of the Radiant Tang Clan, two warriors from the Star-Eye Clan still died while executing a mission.

Now, the Star-Eye Clan was about to participate in the planet hunting grounds, and they wanted to replace these city defense team members with other clan members. However, the eight heads wouldn’t allow it, refusing their request on the grounds that the strength of the city defense team members couldn’t be too low. If the Star-Eye Clan did this, it would be a violation and would incur punishment.

With the current strength of the Star-Eye Clan, they definitely couldn’t withstand that.

However, the eight heads did leave a hint: since the Star-Eye Clan had replaced the Radiant Tang Clan in the city defense team, they could negotiate with the Radiant Tang Clan to send someone to temporarily replace the Star-Eye Clan.

Of course, this was also a demand made by the Radiant Tang Clan behind the scenes, and the timing was just as they were about to depart, only a few hours away, aiming to catch the Star-Eye Clan off guard and force them to agree to the conditions proposed by the Radiant Tang Clan.

Sure enough, the Star-Eye Clan came directly to them, with two clan leaders coming personally.

The moment they were defeated by the Star-Eye Clan during the trial of the brave, it was one of the most humiliating moments for all members of the Radiant Tang Clan in their lives. Now, although they couldn’t really do anything to the Star-Eye Clan, extorting a hefty sum from them and later finding opportunities to devour them bit by bit would count as revenge.

Seeing that the two clan leaders of the Star-Eye Clan only brought four people and displayed a very respectful attitude, Wei Cu and the eight to nine high-ranking members present in the meeting room looked at them like prey, feeling immensely proud.

"Ten million Moon Age Gold..."

"Five hundred hiring quotas..."

"One hundred types of various potions, two thousand pieces..."

"Fifty pieces of Crimson Condensation Equipment..."

"One thousand pieces of Kegang Level Equipment..."

"Fifty years of usage rights for a castle in the underground fortress cluster..."

Sitting on the left, Lord Xing repeated the conditions that the Radiant Tang Clan had just mentioned, his expression hidden behind the mask, but it must have looked very unpleasant.

They were almost pushing the Star-Eye Clan to a dead end.

Not only were they asking for money and equipment, but they also wanted hiring quotas. One could imagine how these guys would treat these five hundred warriors from the Star-Eye Clan—cannon fodder at best, and they might even send them on some unethical missions.

Moreover, they actually wanted a fifty-year usage right for an underground castle!

The reason the Star-Eye Clan could survive in Dark Strip City was largely because they lived underground, a place that was a forbidden zone for all races in Dark Strip City.

No one wanted to go underground to provoke the Star-Eye Clan.

But once they granted the usage rights of a castle to the Radiant Tang Clan, they could enter the underground fortress cluster without any pretense. In other words, the Star-Eye Clan's natural defense line would be gone, exposing their vital points to others. Clearly, the Radiant Tang Clan wanted to seize their weakness to slice the Star-Eye Clan piece by piece.
