Upon hearing this, the members of the church instantly changed their expressions, their eyes filled with shock as they scanned their surroundings.
At this moment, the Grand Bishop ‘Xing’ looked calmly into the distance and silently summoned five King-tier contracted spirits.
The next second, Chen Shu appeared via teleportation, just a few meters away from the three Grand Bishops.
"Chen Shu?!"
Upon seeing their mortal enemy, the church, appear, the two King-tier, two-star Grand Bishops stirred.
Roar!
The contracted spirits of the two men let out low growls, their bodies already radiating the glow of skills, ready to launch a thunderous attack at any moment.
"Wait a moment!"
Grand Bishop ‘Xing’ waved his hand, signaling the other two not to act rashly for now.
Even he was not confident he could keep Chen Shu here, let alone the other two.
He narrowed his eyes and said, "Chen Shu, what do you want? Do you really think the church is without capable people?"
"That's enough, no need for all this talk. You can't keep me anyway."
Chen Shu crossed his arms, appearing as if he had the upper hand.
Even though their contracted spirits could seal skills, his Spatial Rabbit possessed [Battle Instinct (Dragon)], which didn't require him to issue commands. It could teleport him away one step ahead of time.
"Don't be nervous either..."
Chen Shu grinned and said, "I'm just here to discuss a deal."
"A deal?"
Everyone was stunned and silently waited for him to continue.
"I've got my eye on your resources!"
Chen Shu didn't hide anything, pointing to two boxes below, which were filled with Chaotic Star Leaves.
"You want them?"
Grand Bishop ‘Xing’s’ gaze flickered, and then he smiled slightly, saying:
"This is a batch of King-tier medicinal ingredients, the most expensive items. Are you sure you want to buy them?"
"Of course!"
Chen Shu nodded, acting as if he had the money. "Buddy, just name your price!"
"Straightforward!"
Grand Bishop ‘Xing’ showed a hint of admiration in his eyes. "There are a total of one hundred and fifty Chaotic Star Leaves in the boxes..."
"Wait! Only a little over a hundred?"
Chen Shu frowned. This was a bit different from his estimation.
"Only?"
‘Xing’s’ eye twitched. These were world-rare King-tier medicinal ingredients, not common cabbages...
"The [Chaos Canyon] is nearby, but the annual output of Chaotic Star Leaves is limited. For the Free Alliance to have this much reserve is already quite good."
"Are you trying to fool me?"
Chen Shu pouted. "Two big boxes, and they only contain this much?"
According to his estimation, there should have been at least four to five hundred Chaotic Star Leaves. Over a hundred was quite a shortfall.
"Uh..."
Xing exchanged a look, and someone beside him moved aside the Star Leaves from the top layer. The bottom was filled with basic supplies...
"..."
Chen Shu was instantly stunned. "What are you doing pretending to be rich?"
"Just for psychological comfort, it looks nice..."
Grand Bishop ‘Xing’ smiled, but inwardly he was complaining. They did this specifically to lure you in...
Unfortunately, even though they had prepared the bait, they couldn't keep him.
"One hundred and fifty pieces. At a price of three billion per piece, that's not excessive, is it?"
Grand Bishop ‘Xing’ said, "That's a total of four hundred and fifty billion. Of course, we don't accept currency, only equivalent resources!"
Although they were enemies, neither could do anything to the other at the moment, and he was happy to make this transaction.
After all, they didn't have much use for Chaotic Star Leaves, so it was better to exchange them for needed resources.
"Deal! Not expensive at all!"
Chen Shu nodded and agreed immediately.
At the same time, his gaze was greedy as he looked at the other resources. This batch of goods was worth at least tens of trillions. It was indeed the Free Alliance, not comparable to remote areas like Black Continent.
Unfortunately, his Spatial Rabbit needed time to store resources, and it couldn't be interrupted. For him to forcibly take the goods, he would have to deal with all the members of the church.
Grand Bishop ‘Xing’ asked, "Are you paying with basic resources, or high-tier resources..."
"A bit of both..."
Chen Shu gave a strange smile and pointed to the distance, saying, "I'll trade you with the resources from Bichi State, how about that?"
"En?"
Everyone was stunned and didn't react for a moment.
"Bichi State is also a prosperous place. According to my estimation, it has at least hundreds of billions, or even trillions, in resources. You won't lose out, will you?"
Depending on the cities of the Free Alliance, the resources hidden by the church also varied. For example, there were trillions in resources at the moment, while the supplies moved by Buck earlier were only a little over a hundred billion.
Of course, it might also be due to the urgent situation, and the church didn't have time to hide too many resources.
"..."
At this moment, Grand Bishop ‘Xing’ had understood, and a cold killing intent appeared on his face.
Wasn't that their church's money?
He said coldly, "You found that batch of supplies?"
Not only were their stored resources hidden, but they were also protected by the Pope's concealment measures. Not to mention Gold-tier, even King-tier couldn't find them. Otherwise, they would have been moved by the Shark Emperor's forces long ago.
But Chen Shu's methods were strange, and he was a bit uncertain.
"No..."
Chen Shu shrugged and openly admitted it.
Xing frowned and said impatiently, "Then why the hell are you using it for a trade?!"
"I can't find it, but I can destroy it!"
Chen Shu smiled slightly, having already got the upper hand.
"!"
Xing narrowed his eyes, and the killing intent in his eyes could no longer be restrained.
This guy was too brazen!
He thought the other party was genuinely here to make a deal, but it turned out to be this. Wasn't this trampling on the church's dignity...
"What's wrong with you guys?"
Chen Shu smiled and asked:
"Besides Bichi State, there are other states with your resources, right? It's not a small sum in total. Are you sure you don't want them anymore?"
"..."
Upon hearing this, everyone calmed down again. These were trillions in resources, and the church had to get them.
Grand Bishop ‘Yan’ said with a cold killing intent:
"Kid, you can try it! If you dare, the church will definitely..."
"Alright, alright, what your church does is none of my business?"
Chen Shu directly interrupted him and looked at Grand Bishop ‘Xing’, saying:
"You're in charge. You decide whether you want to do this deal or not."
This was no longer just a blatant robbery, but also carried a significant insult...
Using their money to buy their resources, and then forced sales, it was too outrageous...
