Chapter 734: Chapter 734

"You’re awake. Let’s go eat. The city defense schedule Zhang Jing sent us is almost up."

Huorong Qing moved forward to tug at Li Mengyao’s arm, the slightly dazed Li Mengyao quickly came to her senses. "Right, let’s get going." Li Mengyao led the others forward.

As they moved, Li Mengyao swiftly took out some cosmetics, lightly dabbing them on her face, applying a light layer of makeup.

It was beyond comprehension why women stored these things in their personal spaces. As Professionals, their bodies had undergone Law Formalization, they should still look pretty decent even without makeup, right?

Lin Yucha and Lin Yushi never wore makeup. Wait, why were they staring at me with wide eyes while I applied it?

After a while, Du You sighed, "Use your granted personal spaces as you wish, I don’t care what you put inside." The sisters’ eyes immediately lit up with joy.

Previously, they had been worried that Du You would blame them for putting inappropriate items in their spaces, so they had never kept their cosmetics in there. They only applied their makeup secretly when they returned home.

If it weren’t for their natural beauty, ordinary people would find it hard to step out without makeup.

Now that Du You has relinquished control, the two will likely be like everyone else. These women truly never forget to make themselves prettier at any chance they get.

Du You shook his head, had a meal with the others, then climbed up the city wall and began defending.

Du You did not hide his newfound abilities, after all, people had seen them already. The Demon Extermination Spirits outside had lost a significant amount, but there were still plenty in existence.

Du You nodded at Lin Yushi, then the two began to coordinate. The Thunderstorm Arrow, enhanced with the essence of the Demon Extermination Spirit, exploded. Then a fireball came down from the sky, resulting in a large amount of Demon Extermination Spirits springing up.

This cycle went on, increasing the number of Demon Extermination Spirits in the surrounding area.

Zhang Jing nodded, "Perfect integration of skills. On a battlefield , they’re undoubtedly deadly weapons."

Du You rolled his eyes. No matter how powerful the weapon, the rewards seemed to have dwindled. Everyone stationed around him, due to their proximity, was deemed a team member.

Even though there were numerous third-tier demons, their drop rate had decreased to an extremely frustrating level. Surely, leading the sisters solo would yield more rewards.

With the city wall as a shield, it became easier for Du You and Lin Yushi to create more traps.

Lin Yucha simply released her Bloodthirsty Demon Wolf outside the city wall and started to deal damage from a fixed position. Under the condition of abundant magic power, Lin Yucha’s damage output was astonishing.

Of course, what surprised others the most was the amount of magic power these individuals had. Their internal energy seemed never-ending, allowing them to output consistently until the end, which was simply terrifying.

Recovering magic power was a rare skill. Having evolved to this extent was even more unimaginable.

Because of the protection provided by the city wall, Du You didn’t rush to level up himself and his companions. Maintaining their levels at 26 ensured slightly better loot drops.

A few days passed, and new people arrived intermittently. Each group usually consisted of over a hundred individuals, which explained the astonished faces they received upon arrival.

Surprisingly, they had only five people, yet dared to cross the demon-dense territory. That was shocking.

In their minds, even a fourth-tier entity would find it hard to do the same without certain special abilities.

"Du Ming is here, hurry up, those who’re free, gather your things and dispose them.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the distance, with people yelling that Du Ming had arrived. Those without defensive duties rushed towards the commotion, making the city center’s square bustling with activity.

Du You had just completed his day’s task, hearing the ruckus, he was baffled, "Who’s Du Ming? Is he famous?"

"You don’t know? Hasn’t that guy come to you? Alright, I understand. Du Ming is a speculative trader, he’s a notorious one in our academy." Li Mengyao explained to Du You.

"Wherever there is profit, some will take risks. Those so-called speculators do exactly that. Du Ming set up his own trading team, which would enter worlds offering benefits whenever available, just like here. There is no shortage of benefits in such a large-scale attack on the Demon Calamity World."

"I think, his primary goal this time is to collect materials from various demons. We can’t carry a lot of material back due to its sheer volume, so it’s a pity to throw it away. That’s why he’s here. The price of these materials would definitely not be high."

"Why hasn’t this kind of business been driven out by people?"

Li Mengyao curiously responded, "Why would anyone want to drive that out? It’s a mutually beneficial arrangement. Besides, his presence does bring benefits. If someone is missing something, they can buy it from him. If he doesn’t have it, they can place an order."

"I see, let’s go and check it out then, we have collected quite a bit of materials." Thıs text ıs hosted at 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡~𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢~𝙣𝙚𝙩

Du You felt a bit regrettable. Along the way, most of the materials collected had been discarded for the same reasons as before. Who would have thought that there would be someone doing business with these things?

Before long, Du You saw Du Ming in the center of the square. He was an ordinary-looking, chubby guy.

His squinted eyes intermittently flashed with cunning, showing he was not as ordinary as he appeared.

The chubby guy continually exchanged greetings with people around him, presenting a familiar air. Many people by his side were counting materials, paying the Crystal Coins immediately, then putting the materials in the container behind him.

The container looked large, but its internal capacity was even more exaggerated. After such a long time, not even a single container was full. He must be able to do this kind of business because of this kind of spacious storage equipment.

"Ah, isn’t this squad leader Li Mengyao? Nice to meet you. Oh, Du You, our academy’s star student. We were a family five hundred years ago. I’m offering the bottom-line price for others’ materials, but I certainly won’t do the same for yours." Du Ming came over immediately upon seeing them and flattered them in a way that put them at ease.

"Stop your nonsense, trade at your normal prices. We don’t want your charity." With that, Li Mengyao took out some of the materials she had collected and piled them up in front of her.
