"Boss, as you instructed, I probed him a bit, and indeed, he is willing to offer premium renyi level equipment in exchange for those items that enhance fuleira," a02 spoke up. "Currently, only a few super clans and the Tarros Red Dwarf can produce this much renyi level equipment. Moreover, that set of premium renyi level gear is clearly newly manufactured, never seen on the market before. Therefore, we can exclude the former. The identity of this new a11 can almost be confirmed."
"He is a representative of an outstanding artisan among the Tarros Red Dwarfs, or perhaps even the divine artisan himself."
The second founding member offered his speculation, which was quite reasonable.
Everyone had seen that set of equipment; it exceeded their understanding and was clearly newly manufactured, something they had never encountered before.
Only those bearded dwarfs had such capabilities.
How could Ye Zhongming obtain these if he wasn’t their representative?
As for why he was merely a representative and not the divine artisan himself, that was simple; he was too big.
a01 remained silent, not expressing his stance, but continued to gaze at the equipment in front of him in a daze.
Yes, it was the third founding member, a03, who had provided the dried liver of the chuanpu beast, but a03 was bidding on behalf of the first founding member.
"Do you know what this guy did before?" a01 suddenly asked.
The second and third founding members hadn't paid much attention to this new a11 since life replacements beneath the mask weren't rare occurrences in the dark organization they had established over the years. They had slowly shifted from initial rejection to acceptance.
They had previously attempted to catch and kill impostors, then find new participants.
However, they later discovered that this approach would weaken the dark organization's power for a period, resulting in fewer resources. The new members who met the requirements went through a transition period before officially joining, during which the benefits that the original member would have brought disappeared.
Thus, they began to accept 'impostors' because an impostor who eliminated or replaced a genuine member could, at least to some extent, be even better than the original.
As long as they kept an eye on them and prevented impostors from becoming unstable factors, it was manageable.
Their acceptance didn’t mean they were indulgent. In fact, the exploration of the new member's identity had reached a point where the core members—now these three individuals—felt it was necessary to investigate thoroughly.
In their view, this would benefit their overall control.
This time, with Ye Zhongming arriving, they were naturally keen to focus on him, with a01 personally taking charge.
"He transmitted a life to a place called Earth through a22 and brought back hundreds of lives."
"That Earth is the first place in this new battlefield, and the little guy called Ye Zhongming belongs to the Star-Eye Clan."
Upon hearing the first founding member say this, the other two realized it, while one of them furrowed his brow.
"That doesn’t seem right," the third founding member remarked. "If this new a11 is the agent of the divine artisan, then they should be opposed to the Star-Eye Clan. In the new battlefield, the two sides can be enemies. This time, during the planet hunting grounds incident, the Tarros Red Dwarfs were also insisting on punishing the Star-Eye Clan. They sided with the Hall People, so why would they help someone coming from Earth?"
They were enemies, helping an enemy return to the home planet and then bring people back? That seemed absurd.
The first founding member smiled and said, "The interesting part lies here. Although both sides are on edge due to several conflicts, they are secretly contacting each other through this person called Ye Zhongming?"
"I couldn't figure it out at first until I learned of two things."
"Boss, what are those things?" The second founding member felt this issue could significantly impact the current situation and was eager to know the answer.
