Alchemy furnace

Mountain Eagle looked at the people beside him, then suddenly pulled out a dagger and stabbed it directly into the stomach of the person next to him.

The man looked at Mountain Eagle in disbelief, his pupils dilating suddenly.

Mountain Eagle leaped up, grabbed the man by the collar with one hand, and brought him before Xuan Nv.

"Lord Xuan Nv, an offering for you!"

The man lay on the ground, dying, his pupils filled with shock, his weak hand reaching out toward Mountain Eagle.

Xuan Nv delivered the final blow, the man's neck went limp, and he died.

A wisp of Qi drifted into Xuan Nv's body.

Fire Feather and the others were dumbfounded.

So this was how monsters killed people to obtain vitality.

Xuan Nv noticed the confusion of Fire Feather and the others and smiled, saying: "Only low-Rank monsters obtain it through eating flesh."

After saying this, Xuan Nv stepped on Mountain Eagle's back, forcing him to kneel on the ground, letting her step on him.

Mountain Eagle complained bitterly in his heart, silently cursing: "Damn it, I've really had the worst luck for eight lifetimes. I originally planned to come here and occupy this place as my base, but I didn't expect it to have already been occupied by monsters, and they've even enslaved the people here."

If Mountain Eagle knew that this Xuan Nv was in cahoots with these people, he would surely die of anger.

Xuan Nv looked coldly at the nine hundred people below.

The originally imposing and aggressive crowd was now trembling with fear, looking at the thousands of monsters behind them.

Mountain Eagle knelt on the ground and begged: "Lord Xuan Nv, we know we were wrong. Please spare our lives. My brothers, they are all innocent."

Xuan Nv looked surprised: "Oh? Just a moment ago you killed your own brother without hesitation, and now you're begging for mercy for your subordinates. Are you being noble, or what?"

Mountain Eagle was panting heavily under Xuan Nv's foot: "Lord... Lord Xuan Nv, the person I killed just now wasn't one of my own men. My brothers and I share a bond of life and death. You can do whatever you want with those people, but can you please spare my brothers?"

"Fine. You order your men to kill all those people, and I will spare your lives!" Xuan Nv said coldly.

Mountain Eagle took a deep breath, as if making a difficult decision.

Suddenly, Mountain Eagle stood up and shouted to the people below: "Brothers, kill all of those people for me!"

Mountain Eagle's men below immediately started the war, slaughtering each other.

(Monsters are different from Pet Masters; they do not need to kill personally, they only need to absorb vitality after a person dies.)

Xuan Nv looked at the people slaughtering each other below, a smile curling on her lips.

Fire Feather and the others, however, frowned deeply.

...

Ye Chen was sitting in an office building within the Safe Zone.

Rakshasa sat nearby, reporting the situation.

"Brother Chen, this is the data for the Law Enforcement Alliance. It clearly states how many people are in each department, each brigade, and their Ranks."

After saying this, Rakshasa handed a stack of documents to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen picked up the documents and read through them.

Zhang Haonan also handed over the data for the members of the Star Alliance.

This purge was not just for Wu Shangyin and the others; every brigade and even squad members below had undergone a thorough cleaning. Those with ulterior motives and black sheep were all sent to the Yaomei Alliance.

Mo Sang had his own ways of dealing with them.

Ye Chen combined the data from the two Alliances and said: "You should have your own management methods; you don't need to come to me for everything. You are all the leaders of your respective Alliances, and you have the right and responsibility to handle these things. Regarding how to distribute, how to discuss—you have the authority to handle it yourselves. Do you understand?"

Rakshasa and Zhang Haonan nodded.

There were many newly appointed people sitting in the room, inevitably feeling a bit excited.

Ye Chen stood up and said: "Alright, there's nothing else. You should go back to your work. Level up as soon as possible. The great change in the world is about to descend, and there will be even more powerful monsters then. If you don't have the ability to protect yourselves, how will you survive?"

"Yes!"

Everyone immediately responded.

Ye Chen stood up and left with a few others.

Ye Chen currently still had one hell secret realm key and ten hell secret realm key fragments on him.

Ye Chen had a plan in mind and said to Yu Nian and the others: "I plan to start hunting monsters from tomorrow to obtain more hell secret realm keys to give to those below, so they can use them and level up as soon as possible."

"That works too. Anyway, we can only enter the Hell Secret Realm once every seven days, so we might as well kill monsters to gain experience and give the hell secret realm keys to the people below." Yu Nian agreed.

This method was also the way to maximize the benefits of resources.

By the afternoon, the people from the three Alliances had moved their headquarters over and were holding housewarming celebrations in the restaurants on the street.

All three invited Ye Chen, but Ye Chen declined.

Now Ye Chen was holed up in his room, researching the System shop and the Monster Shop.

Comparing the two, one was an honest business, and the other was simply a heartless merchant.

The items in the System shop were not only cheap but also had a higher cost-performance ratio.

Take this Pill Furnace for example; the Pill Furnace in the System shop only required one hundred points and had a one hundred percent success rate.

But in the Monster Shop, they were divided into Elementary, Intermediate, and Advanced, with success rates corresponding to thirty, seventy, and ninety percent.

The prices were one hundred gold coins, three hundred gold coins, and five hundred gold coins respectively, and they were all single-use.

As for the reusable Pill Furnace, it was divided into four grades: Heaven, Earth, Mysterious, and Yellow, and there was no such thing as a failed refinement.

The Heaven Rank was the highest, and its efficacy was also the best.

Not only was the success rate high, but the absorbed medicinal properties were also the highest.

To put it simply, if an item contained one thousand experience points, if it was a Heaven Rank Pill Furnace, the experience capsule refined would have nine hundred.

If it was Yellow Rank, it might only have three hundred.

The difference was a full three times.

But the Yellow Rank Pill Furnace required as many as fifty thousand gold coins, and as for the Heaven Rank, that was an astronomical price.

Ye Chen shook his head while looking at the items in the Monster Shop.

Fortunately, he had the System mall; compared to the Heaven Rank Pill Furnace, it only required 8888 points.

It was very conscientious.

Ye Chen revealed a smile; his advantage was already very obvious.

Lying on the bed, Ye Chen thought back to the time before his Transmigration, feeling a bit nostalgic.

He wondered if he could ever go back.

In such imagination, Ye Chen gradually fell asleep.

At eight o'clock the next morning, Ye Chen and the others had already set off.

In the Green Expo Garden, numerous monsters lived there.

The Green Expo Garden, which used to be filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, had now almost become a dead zone.

Zhu Qiang pinched his nose and said: "Everyone says Green Expo Garden is full of fragrant flowers and fresh air. How has it become like this now? It stinks so much!"

Lin Nuoyi frowned and said: "This Green Expo Garden covers five hundred and sixty mu, equivalent to a small forest. It used to be a Holy Land for leisure, but now, it has become a home for monsters."
