Chapter 460 -204 Feeding the Zombies (Double Monthly Tickets at Month End)_2
Zijin Base is now prepared to bring out these Crystal Cores for everyone to try. But it’s definitely not possible for everyone to get one, and the specifics on how they’ll be distributed aren’t clear. It’s very likely that they’ll be allocated based on rankings of strength. The stronger forces will get more, while the weaker ones might not even get a single core.
The Firefly Club challenging the Thunder Guild feels like a stroke of luck. They might end up getting more of these Crystal Cores because of it.
As for what these Crystal Cores actually are, they still don’t know, only that they’re one of the trump cards Zijin Base has prepared for hunting Level 3 zombies.
During their interactions, Nie Siyan, some even suggested that perhaps they should put on a few staged fights tomorrow to give off the illusion that they’re all very strong, to boost their impression in front of Zijin Base.
However, not many people approved of this proposal.
Because they all don’t trust each other—one might pretend to go easy, but if the other takes it seriously, they’ll be at a great loss!
But, if there are one or two forces that are on good terms, slipping in a staged fight or two doesn’t seem out of the question… Of course, Zijin Base isn’t foolish. It’ll come down to whether their acting skills are better, or if Zijin Base is more perceptive.
…
The second piece of news is that Zijin Base is planning to create 12 Level 3 ability users in this Ascension operation!
This number seems exaggerated to the point of being unrealistic, considering that there isn’t even one Level 3 ability user yet… The details are not clear for the time being. Anyway, Zijin Base seems to think it’s feasible.
They speculate it might be because Zijin Base has found a location with a large number of Level 3 zombies, or it’s because Zijin Base possesses quick methods to kill Level 3 zombies…
Regardless, the idea of 12 Level 3 ability user slots has everyone quite excited. If there were only a few slots, then there certainly wouldn’t be one for them. But with 12 slots, there should be enough for the four major forces, right? Maybe a few will even be left over, then wouldn’t they also have a chance?
…
The third piece of news relates to the rankings of forces.
It’s said that Zijin Base may introduce a combat competition model to rank the high-end combat power of these forces.
Although the specifics of this ranking have not been disclosed, combining it with the second piece of news, could it be that this rank might be a reserve list for Level 3 ability users?
If there are any slots left over after the four major forces have taken their share, will the selections then start with the highest rank and go down in order?
If that’s the case, then these rankings become extremely important, probably prompting everyone to demonstrate their full capabilities…

Nie Siyan received more than just these three pieces of information. There were a bunch of other messy details, but she thought most of them were useless, so she didn’t bother Wang Tao with them.
Then there was the issue of forming teams and alliances.
This was as Wang Tao had predicted; no consensus was reached on forming alliances. Since there wasn’t much trust among these mid-sized forces, they naturally couldn’t form alliances.
However, quite a few small groups did form.
Nie Siyan herself formed a group, bringing in two forces that ranked lower.
Based on the reputation of the Firefly Club’s predecessor, the Skull Club, it would have been impossible to form a team. But now they were no longer the Skull Club. Plus, during the day, Xu Xiaojun defeated the Thunder Guild and made the Firefly Club quite prominent, so Nie Siyan was still able to find two teammates.
The Ascension operation would definitely involve hunting Level 3 zombies, and having teammates would provide at least some support.
Of course, that depended on whether the teammates were trustworthy.
“Do you think they can be trusted?”
Wang Tao asked curiously.
“These two forces are on the decline now, and no one wants to team up with them, so they have no other choice. However… I don’t really trust them either. When I teamed up with them, I thought that if there’s danger in the future, I could use them as a shield!”
Nie Siyan glanced at Wang Tao as she said this.
She felt that Wang Tao probably wasn’t the saintly type.
Sure enough, Wang Tao was somewhat speechless after hearing this but didn’t say much.
“You’re quite clever,”
“Heh heh~”
Nie Siyan took it as a compliment.
“Oh, right, I forgot to mention the most important thing!”
Nie Siyan hurriedly told Wang Tao about the Crystal Cores.
“After taking out those Crystal Cores and Potions, I received a lot of attention. Especially the Potions, everyone said that after they test them, if they are really as effective as I claimed, they’re willing to purchase them with Crystal Cores! As for the Crystal Cores, of course, they liked them too, but they weren’t as popular as the Potions…”
Listening to Nie Siyan’s words, Wang Tao nodded inwardly.
It seemed that for the time being, larger forces like the clubs preferred the Crystal Cores, whereas the mid-sized forces preferred Potions.
Of course, this was only temporary. Wang Tao’s products, whether Crystal Cores or Potions, were not exaggerated in their effectiveness. He believed that once they tested them, they would like both…
…
The next day.
Zijin Base called together the leaders of these forces for a meeting.
Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue were fishing by the artificial lake, which was one of the benefits provided to the villa area by Zijin Base. It’s just that the fish here were too small; after having had larger fish, Wang Tao felt they were somewhat lacking.
Nie Siyan returned from the meeting invigorated and rushed to Wang Tao’s side.
“Brother Wang! It’s confirmed! After consultation among the four major forces, Zijin Base decided that this Ascension operation will indeed offer slots for Level 3 Ascension! But not 12 slots, 15! The specifics of the allocation were not detailed, but they indicated that there will be slots reserved for forces other than the four major ones!”
