Chapter 227: Chapter 138: Purging the Malignant Tumors, Unifying the Northern Territory, and Forming the Mysterious and Powerful Waist-Cutter Team

The "sudden situation" just now had affected Zero’s judgment. Now, with her reason restored, she quickly explained her plan to Shen Fei.

"So, if you want to recharge, your only option is to complete trades and accumulate Recharge Points... This trading system will not only allow people to exchange what they have for what they need, but it will also let you recharge your Long-range Teleportation..."

Placing the Divine Artifact’s Attributes in front of Shen Fei, Zero rattled on.

"HOLY CRAP!"

Looking at the Divine Artifact’s new ability and listening to Zero’s words, Shen Fei thought of something else. Thinking of this place’s name, he never expected that he would have a chance to personally take part in this...

"So, what’s your plan?" Though inwardly excited, Shen Fei asked with a calm expression.

"I want to enable item trading directly!" Zero said. "This skill will create a special space, allowing both parties to transfer items through it. The only restriction is that a trader needs to be within the special space’s coverage area to act as an intermediary... Weren’t there eighty good people just now? If they’re still willing to stay here... Also, since this place is called the Ninth District, I was thinking the trading channel we create could be called the [Ninth World]! I think this place is pretty suitable for something like this..."

Quickly, Zero laid out her entire plan.

"Holy shit!"

An invitation-only system, trading only super-tier items... So this is how the mysterious [Ninth World] came to be?

After hearing Zero’s plan, Shen Fei was a little dumbfounded. He never expected that the mysterious Ninth World from his past life had such an origin. Although in his past life, the [Ninth Network] had other functions besides trading, hearing Zero’s words now, he understood that this was the beginning of it all. The very first function the [Ninth Network] had, right at the top, was trading. The other functions were clearly added later by Ethereum Punk and the others, using new abilities and items as they inherited their game powers. This place, right here, was truly the starting point of the mysterious [Ninth World] from his past life. Shen Fei never imagined that through a series of coincidences, he would actually become a part of it...

"So? What do you think?" Seeing Shen Fei’s dumbfounded expression, Zero gave a proud smile.

"It’s good!"

"It’s very good!"

"Of course it’s good!!!"

Faced with Zero’s question, Shen Fei nodded repeatedly. The creation of the mysterious [Ninth World] at this moment was, of course, a great thing. Besides, this thing could indeed play a huge role in humanity’s development and the exchange of resources. It definitely deserved full support!

More importantly, as long as the trade volume hit its target, the Recharge Points would increase. This would give him another way to quickly restore his Long-range Teleportation charges. Although every time he recharged, he would need to plug into Zero—no, that’s not right—he would need Zero to plug into his Divine Artifact like a charger.

But his "fiancée," V, was a member of [Ethereum Punk]!

Yes, after a bit of wishful thinking, V, who had just been his girlfriend a moment ago, had already been promoted to fiancée in Shen Fei’s mind.

I’m practically a family member of Ethereum Punk. As long as I can come up with the right bargaining chips, getting Zero to "recharge" me should be no problem at all!

In his past life, Shen Fei didn’t know why the [Ninth World] had used an invitation-only system.

But now, he felt there was no need for all that pretentious invitation-only nonsense! We can just open it up to everyone! Of course, a small-scale test is necessary at the beginning.

"So, shall we get it started?" By telling Shen Fei about this, Zero was obviously hoping to get his support. Without the support of a super-powered individual like Shen Fei, Zero felt that even though most of the people who were originally "Piglets" were good people, she wouldn’t dare to use them. Moreover, because of the special Tree People area 100km away, even if she were to activate the trading space, it would only be on a small scale, not something she’d do with great fanfare.

But if she gained Shen Fei’s support, then everything would change. Leaving other things aside for a moment, Shen Fei’s power was undeniable. At least, based on the information she had received so far, Shen Fei was No. 1.

"Let’s do it!!" Hearing Zero’s question, Shen Fei immediately nodded.

"Alright!" With Shen Fei’s support, Zero’s eyes lit up, and she waved her hand in an instant.

Then, the eighty-plus good people who had been sent to Country F via the Divine Artifact Link all returned...

Zero had followed Shen Fei’s instructions and had previously sent these eighty people to Country F using the Divine Artifact. Of course, she had also seen that after sending them over, the call requests from Country F’s [Napoleon Knight’s Power] had been ringing non-stop on her three Divine Artifacts. But she had no intention of answering. In fact, after controlling the Divine Artifact to summon the eighty people back, she directly disconnected the link with [Napoleon Knight’s Power].

As for how her actions might affect the global competition, Zero didn’t care. She knew that this competition wasn’t really about sharing abilities and mutual improvement for humanity. Instead, it was full of dirty dealings and shady schemes. Even if she did affect it, Zero couldn’t care less.

You lot never had good intentions to begin with, so why would you be afraid of me messing things up? Is there even any room for you to sink lower?

"You handle it?" Looking at the eighty-plus people who had been summoned back—people who had passed the [Mind Control Tower] test and were now staring at her and Shen Fei with confusion and panic—Zero gave a slight smile and looked at Shen Fei.

"Alright, I’ll do it!!" Knowing that Zero disliked giving orders in front of others, Shen Fei immediately hopped onto a table.
