Chapter 2338: A Means of Control: Seizing Wealth (Part 1) 💰

The members of the assault team walked in one after another from the back, each carrying wooden boxes of varying sizes.

These boxes were very ordinary and common, belonging to the lowest level of handicrafts, but no one doubted that the contents inside were equally low-grade.

In addition to the assault camp, members of the red dress guard and the chief of the Long Void Water Clan also came out. Some carried boxes while others held smaller cases.

Even though there were some guesses, everyone was still fixated on what these boxes held, filled with anticipation.

Ye Zhongming didn't waste time and asked the first row of people to open the boxes.

There were about a hundred assault camp warriors in the first row, and they immediately opened the boxes, revealing the weapons inside.

All were crimson condensation level weapons.

"This is a weapon I specially designed based on the characteristics of various races in Dark Strip City. Each weapon has the name of its corresponding race marked underneath. If you're interested, take a look. If you want to know more, you can inform our personnel, and I will play a video on the light barrier explaining my design concepts for each weapon, as well as its capabilities and how it benefits from the synergy with the skills of its race."

After Ye Zhongming finished speaking, he noticed that numerous races stood up, so he quickly smiled and said, "Let's do this, starting from the back, we'll go one by one."

He then pointed to a representative of a race and asked him to come forward first.

This representative was the younger brother of the clan chief, the second-in-command of their small race. He had concerns about both the Star-Eye Clan and Ye Zhongming, not wanting to offend either side, so he sent the second-in-command to represent them.

Ye Zhongming had no complaints about this; those who could come today were friends.

The representative stepped forward and found a war knife specially designed for their race. At first, he furrowed his brow because at least from the outside, this weapon showed no signs of special design besides its level. After he picked it up and examined it closely, he found nothing and had to let someone play the detailed information.

On the enormous holographic light barrier on one side of the hall, Ye Zhongming's figure appeared, sitting behind a workbench.

"The wrist of the Xingzhi Clan has an upward inclination angle of seven and a half degrees, which results in them holding weapons at a slightly higher position than normal. If we increase the outward arc of the weapon…"

Ye Zhongming's voice gently flowed through the light barrier, clearly presenting the concepts and manufacturing processes of a top-level equipment maker to everyone.

Everyone was stunned by this scene, including the assault camp leader and the Long Void Water Clan members.

They had never imagined that the manufacturing of a weapon could involve such intricate considerations. Phrases like "because... therefore... this way can..." made them feel like fools.

What kind of person could think of so many aspects during the manufacturing of a weapon and integrate them into a perfect piece?

After watching Ye Zhongming's explanatory video, the representative from the Xingzhi Clan looked at the war knife with completely different eyes.

If what Ye Zhongming said in the light barrier was completely correct, then this knife, when fully utilizing its crimson condensation level strength, could enhance the combat power of the Xingzhi Clan by over twenty percent!

That was a terrifying improvement, and it required just over ten thousand leira to fully unleash its power, making it very accessible.

"This this..." The second-in-command was so excited that he began to stutter, suddenly thinking of something and turning to ask Ye Zhongming, "This, the price…"

The item was undoubtedly good, but they might not be able to afford it.

After all, crimson condensation level equipment was quite expensive, with starting prices already high. If it was a premium item, it would be even more so. And if it were a custom-made crimson condensation level weapon… to be honest, even the previous eight heads of Dark Strip City would not have qualified for this treatment.
