Zhao Fu first went to the Orc City. Before the Ghost Festival had officially started, he had sent messages requesting to trade for Ghost Crystals. After their cooperation during the Ten Thousand Flower Festival, both sides quickly came to an agreement.
Now, Zhao Fu went to the Orc City to see how many Ghost Crystals they had gained in one night.
Zhao Fu came to the city gates and took out Gunador’s command medallion. Following this, an Orc soldier took Zhao Fu to Gunador’s tent.
Apart from Gunador, the well-built Orc, Bodili, was also there. Despite not seeing them for a few months, they looked more or less the same.
However, as soon as Zhao Fu walked in, Bodili’s expression became serious, and he didn’t look as condescending as before. When Zhao Fu walked in, he could feel a very dangerous aura – compared to when Zhao Fu had first visited the Orc City, he had become much more powerful.
“Long time no see, respected Vice-Lord!” Zhao Fu said as he smiled and cupped his hands.
Gunador smiled, stood up, stretched out his hand, and said, “Indeed, it has been a while. Come, esteemed guest, please sit!”
Zhao Fu sat down on a furry rug and casually chatted with Gunador for a while before asking, “Respected Vice-Lord, how many Ghost Crystals has the city obtained?”Gunador smiled and waved his hand, and a mountain of Ghost Crystals appeared before Zhao Fu – there were around 50,000-60,000 in total. Seeing this, Zhao Fu felt somewhat disappointed because Great Qin had obtained 160,000 or so, while the Orc City had only obtained 50,000-60,000.
However, Zhao Fu knew that the only reason he had been able to obtain so many was because he had used the Allmonster Warding Talisman and the Reversal Talisman together. The Ghost Festival wasn’t something that everyone could participate in, so he couldn’t use the Orc City’s superiority in numbers to gain as large of an advantage.
After thinking about that, Zhao Fu could understand why the Orc City hadn’t obtained as many Ghost Crystals as he had expected. The main cities most likely hadn’t obtained many Ghost Crystals either, and he prepared to take out some food to trade.
Because of Zhao Fu’s cloak, Gunador couldn’t see Zhao Fu’s disappointed expression, and he thought that Zhao Fu was very pleased. After all, it had taken him a lot of effort to obtain these Ghost Crystals.
At that moment, Gunador smiled as he said, “Esteemed guest, we have enough food, but our warriors’ weapons are too crude. I wonder if esteemed guest has any equipment to trade. If I remember correctly, esteemed guest should have quite a lot of equipment.”
Last time, during the Ten Thousand Flower Festival, the Orc City had already received a large amount of food from Zhao Fu, so they didn’t lack food anymore. Now, what they lacked was equipment. The Orcs weren’t good at forging, and even if they had exquisite materials, they wouldn’t be able to create good equipment. As such, all of their equipment was quite crude, which was why they wanted to trade Ghost Crystals for equipment.
