Global Mutation: Opening with Swallowing a Black Mamba-Chapter 332 - 333: Ransom Offer! Ten Million D-Tier Energy Stones!

Chapter 332: Chapter 333: Ransom Offer! Ten Million D-Tier Energy Stones!

The stunning beauty of Hua Linglong made it easy for Gu Qijue to make this decision.

Gu Qijue didn’t hesitate for a moment and decided to go for it!

He looked at Hua Linglong and asked, "You won’t go back on your word, will you?"

Hua Linglong shook her head, "Once spoken, words are like spilled milk!"

As she finished speaking, Commander Murong Zifeng happened to fly over.

Murong Zifeng’s previous airborne strike did nothing to Gu Qijue.

But he completely overheard the conversation between Gu Qijue and Hua Linglong.

His gaze towards Gu Qijue was full of killing intent.

Yet he held back, not making a move, and instead asked, "Do you know who I am?"

Having been attacked by Murong Zifeng just now, Gu Qijue didn’t intend to be nice to him.

Now, since Murong Zifeng had come looking for trouble, Gu Qijue wasn’t about to be polite.

He pointed at the Bone Prison Dog beside him and asked, "Do you know what breed this dog is?"

This question was extremely insulting.

After all, Murong Zifeng had asked Gu Qijue if he knew who he was.

The result? Gu Qijue subtly answered, ’I don’t need to know what kind of dog you are.’

As the young master of the Vice Leader of the Greedy Wolf Star Cluster Civilization, Murong Zifeng wasn’t about to laugh this off with Gu Qijue.

Gu Qijue had insulted him to the point of seeking his own death!

"Swish!"

Murong Zifeng didn’t spare a bit of courtesy, raising his hand and summoning an Ice Sword directly into it.

Hua Linglong didn’t expect that Gu Qijue would ignore Murong Zifeng’s face entirely.

However, she still hoped the two of them wouldn’t start fighting here, and immediately spoke up.

"Don’t be impulsive. I can inform the Vice Leader of the Star Cluster to mediate your misunderstanding!"

Hua Linglong had given plenty of face to both Gu Qijue and Murong Zifeng, directly preparing to invite a Vice Leader from the Flower Moon Star Cluster as a mediator.

But Murong Zifeng clearly wasn’t going to give face to the Flower Moon Star Cluster.

He acted without another word.

The Ice Sword in his hand, filled with terrifying power, slashed towards Gu Qijue.

Hua Linglong was speechless at this scene.

In an instant, she erected an Energy Shield to block in front of Gu Qijue.

While Hua Linglong’s command ability wasn’t great, her combat strength wasn’t bad.

Murong Zifeng’s strike couldn’t affect her at all.

"Boom!"

The terrifying sword light fell, and the Energy Shield Hua Linglong erected only rippled slightly.

Hua Linglong hadn’t expected that not only was Murong Zifeng hot-tempered, but Gu Qijue had quite a temper as well.

Previously, when Gu Qijue was speaking with Hua Linglong, Murong Zifeng attacked sneakily.

And now again, without provocation, he acted suddenly—truly asking to die!

"Roar——"

A ground-shaking dragon roar suddenly echoed.

In an instant, Gu Qijue underwent an extremely rapid transformation.

He first entered the second combat form, Half-Dragon Transformation, then from Half-Dragon Transformation to Full Dragon Transformation!

But that wasn’t the end. As the terrifying Dragon Might swept and exploded in all directions, he directly entered the Fourth Combat Form, the Blood Dragon God Form!

"Crack!"

D-tier Cosmic-level Power swept all directions at that moment.

Murong Zifeng was clutched by the throat like a helpless chicken, held in Gu Qijue’s hand.

Murong Zifeng, at this moment, was in a state of utter shock.

He had originally thought he could overpower Gu Qijue in ten rounds or less.

After all, Gu Qijue’s strength primarily lay in commanding grand armies, not solo battles.

But he had clearly overestimated himself, unable to even withstand a single exchange before being defeated by Gu Qijue!

Gu Qijue knew Murong Zifeng had significant backing, but he was still prepared to crush him.

Even if this was an ant, it was still an eyesore.

However, as he was having this thought, the Infinite Engine issued a prompt.

[Prompt! The target has a backup consciousness. Suggest demanding ransom!]

Seeing this prompt, Gu Qijue was momentarily stunned.

No wonder Murong Zifeng was so arrogant—it turns out he had two or three lives.

This wasn’t to say that if Murong Zifeng’s head was cut off, another would grow back.

Rather, his consciousness had been backed up using cutting-edge technology.

Even if he killed Murong Zifeng now, it wouldn’t result in true death.

Unless he could destroy the device that stored Murong Zifeng’s backup consciousness.

Realizing this, Gu Qijue temporarily gave up on the idea of crushing Murong Zifeng.

Moreover, the Infinite Engine’s suggestion was quite good, as he was currently in dire need of resources.

The life of the Vice Leader’s young master in the Greedy Wolf Star Cluster Civilization must be quite valuable.

Gu Qijue immediately said to Murong Zifeng, "Do you believe I’ll count to three and take your life?"

Although Murong Zifeng knew he wouldn’t die, the backup consciousness device wasn’t developed by the Greedy Wolf Star Cluster Civilization and was extremely precious.

That kind of device didn’t simply duplicate him, but genuinely allowed him to have two lives.

Even as angry as he was, Murong Zifeng had no intention of casually losing a life.

Moreover, it was one of his most crucial trump cards, not to be used in this situation.

Furious as he already was, Murong Zifeng could only coldly say, "What do you want?"

Gu Qijue offhandedly said, "Give me a billion D-Tier Energy Stones, or you can stay in the Flower Moon Star Cluster forever."

Upon hearing this, Murong Zifeng flew into a rage again.

A billion D-Tier Energy Stones, only Gu Qijue would dare demand such a price.

It’s not that he wasn’t worth the price, but that the Greedy Wolf Star Cluster Civilization would never agree to such terms.

Murong Zifeng had previously been arrogant and brazen for two reasons.

One was that he wouldn’t die, and the other was that he was sure he could take down Gu Qijue.

Now as a prisoner, he wasn’t entirely oblivious to reality.

After thoughtful consideration, he said, "Ten million D-Tier Energy Stones, not one more."

Gu Qijue’s earlier demand was actually a high opening bid, anticipating a lower settlement.

If he could get a million D-Tier Energy Stones, he would actually be very satisfied.

A million D-Tier Energy Stones equated to a billion E-Tier Energy Stones and a hundred billion F-Tier Energy Stones.

This was not a trivial amount; it was an astronomical sum of Energy Stones.

But he hadn’t expected Murong Zifeng to offer a sky-high price of ten million D-Tier Energy Stones.

Having roamed the Cosmic Star Sea for so long, Gu Qijue had never had so many Energy Stones at any given time.

While thrilled, he was also worried about Murong Zifeng pulling a trick.

If the other party sent C-Tier Cosmic Level powerhouses from the Greedy Wolf Star Cluster with those Energy Stones,

it would be problematic, as he wouldn’t dare to accept them even if they dared to deliver.

What Gu Qijue hadn’t anticipated happened yet again.

Worried that Gu Qijue might impulsively crush him to death,

Murong Zifeng directly removed the Space Storage Device from his neck, saying,

"There’s ten million D-Tier Energy Stones in here. Can you give me a straightforward answer?"
