Chapter 432 - 227: Deal and Specialty
Calling him ’Grandfather’ made Metheus, who was trapped in a dilemma, laugh. The council was actually quite helpless, as they really wanted what Baiyi had.
But the things Baiyi showed made them hesitant.
After all, for the council, the relationship with Baiyi was still very important, so letting Metheus probe this power, which might be used to deter the Federation, was the right choice.
"What bottom line?" Diane asked somewhat confused, instinctively.
Even while eating, she was listening, and she doubted if she missed some information.
"Did you watch the battle in Dongwu City?" Baiyi asked softly.
"Of course I watched it, I didn’t expect you to be so formidable." Diane looked at him with some admiration. Clearly, before she used to rely on his aid, but now his martial prowess had become so strong that she was embarrassed to compliment him in front of so many people.
"The transformation at the start of the war was very powerful, and the Federation wants it too, so they sent Grandfather Metheus to purchase it," Baiyi didn’t hide from Diane, even though she might not be that clever, but she can learn.
Though always being a bit slow has its charm, Baiyi would be pleased to see her become smarter.
Diane nodded, suddenly understanding: "So why not just say it directly?"
"Well, it’s a bit complicated, I’ll explain to you later." Baiyi looked at the kindly Metheus.
"How much do you want?" Metheus asked with a smile, after all, wasn’t he called grandfather?
Since it’s Federation’s item, and considering Baiyi’s relationship with the Di Feng family, maximizing the benefit is also possible.
Baiyi thought for a moment and raised one hand: "Five items."
Metheus paused. Among them are epic weapons, and with epic weapons, one can see from [Junlin] that the bonuses are not ordinary.
With a total of eight items, the value would be somewhat overly large...
He pondered carefully and nodded: "Okay, but you can’t choose all epic equipment."
"I didn’t plan on taking that stuff," Baiyi quickly started selecting. He had roughly gone through it before, and he wasn’t interested at all in the equipment.
He has an exclusive weapon on the Dark Side and can make weapons himself on the Light side, so he has a low need for equipment.
On the other hand, for high-tier materials, no matter how much, there wouldn’t be too much.
By getting five more, he wouldn’t need to scrounge for materials for the modification of the [Divine Spirit Bone] everywhere, otherwise, it might take a long time, since the things of the gods are too grand and lofty, one might not even find things of the True God.
After selecting, the surrounding anomalies disappeared, and when the three of them walked outside, Baiyi took out the [Madness·Bloom] that he had prepared for a while.
Metheus paused and accepted it: "About ten minutes later, someone will bring the items over; please wait for a while."
He looked at Baiyi with some emotion but didn’t say anything, and instead, he looked at Diane and smiled, saying: "Don’t forget what you promised me, I’ll give you...."
He looked towards the sky, hesitating a bit: "Three days, then go into seclusion after three days."
Diane nodded, grumbling somewhat unhappily: "Got it, got it, I didn’t say I wouldn’t go..."
Metheus winked at Baiyi, a spatial fluctuation passed by, and he disappeared.
Baiyi felt a bit surprised, and after Metheus left, he wisely asked: "What did you promise him? What happened?"
When he asked this, Diane immediately became proud: "Didn’t you say you wanted to reform? So I went to discuss with my brother and grandfather, and then I contacted other little partners bit by bit, and finally promoted the entire Federation’s reform."
She said, then became a bit lifeless: "However, the condition for grandfather’s support was that from now on, my seclusion time would double, previously I would come out after leveling up once, now I need to level up twice... and until I reach Legendary, this doubling seclusion can’t be canceled."
Baiyi found it somewhat amusing, yet also touched. Such unconditional support, he has only felt it from two people, Diane and Luoning, but the two are somewhat different, Luoning is attachment, Diane is love.
Unable to resist, he kissed Diane: "Being a bit silly is nice too."
Diane, being suddenly assaulted, blushed a bit, but since there weren’t usually many people in the council hall, she didn’t resist Baiyi’s closeness.
Just immediately retorted: "Where am I silly? I united so many forces, and only then did the Federation begin its reform!"
"Alright, not silly, Diane is the smartest." Baiyi said with a smile.
"I’m really not silly." Diane rolled her eyes, then thought of something and asked: "Just now you mentioned purchasing your transformation science knowledge, when was that discussed?"
"No need for discussion." Baiyi and Diane sat on the lion statue outside the council hall.
Amid the complicated gaze of the guarding soldiers, he explained: "Once this transformation was seen by the Federation to be effective, the Federation would definitely want it because this transformation specifically for war can make the Federation stronger."
"And here, I can’t refuse, using knowledge for exchange is the best."
Diane thought carefully, it seemed to be the case, but she always felt it wasn’t that simple, at least... it shouldn’t have felt so natural.
"Let’s not think about these for now. If you want to know more about these things, I’ll organize some books for you, these books can teach you a lot." Baiyi stroked Diane’s face, speaking gently.
Diane hesitated a bit: "Well... there aren’t any exams, right?"
Baiyi paused, somewhat helplessly: "Just take a look when you have time, if you don’t want to, then don’t. There won’t be any exams."
